Fire destroys Monthony home, community rallies By Christina Scanlon
christina@suncommunitynews.com
INDIAN LAKE — The community is rallying for Phil and Patti Monthony after a Sunday morning fire destroyed their 1335 Cedar River Road home. “It’s unbelievable,” said Patti of the outpouring from the public. “My mom’s house is completely filled with donations of clothing. “I don’t even People keep handing want to think us gift cards and enveabout what could lopes.

29, when the blaze broke out. “I’d fallen back asleep,” she said. She was woken by the smoke detector from her third floor bedroom. “I don’t even want to think about what could have happened. Thank God for the smoke detectors. I can’t express that enough.” Still a bit dazed from the whirlwind of losing her home, Patti recalled what she could Tuesday morning in a phone interview. “I called the fire department and I ran out in my bath robe and my son’s sneakers,” she said. While Phil was not home, he saw the smoke from his hunting camp a short distance away. “He knew right away it was our house,” she said of his immediate race to get home. “I just stood there in shock,” said Patti. Eventually, friends and family made her leave the scene. Neighbors Tim and Rosie Goliber, said Pat-
ti, were generous enough to open their home for the many friends, family members and townspeople that gathered to come offer support. The cause of the blaze was still under investigation Tuesday morning. Indian Lake volunteer firefighter Tom Atwell said volunteers had a quick response, though the structure was totally involved in fire upon arrival. “Flames had taken over a major portion of the back of the home by the time Patti fled”, said Atwell. Complicating fire fighting efforts were a downed power line that fell into the driveway and a 500 gallon propane tank that needed to be cooled down with water. “Flames were licking at it,” said Atwell of the propane tank. The fire took about two hours before it was considered under control and a significant time to put out completely. “It was a large home,” he said.

Black Mountain Lodge shows off what’s on tap By Christina Scanlon
christina@suncommunitynews.com
NORTH CREEK — It’s been two years since Mark O’Connell took over Black Mountain Lodge and things are going quite well. There’s a wide variety of beers on tap, one of the improvements he’d planned early on. “This was something I definitely knew I wanted to do,” he said of expanding the selection from four to 22, plus one for birch beer and one for root beer. It’s been well received, and a draw for both tourists and locals, alike. There’s a newly installed screened-in porch, complete with rough-sawn cedar and a nearly complete game room, awaiting use by youth for free, in the lower level. He’s created a ski tuning room and updated the tired-looking Alpine theme with welcoming Adirondack exterior. Overgrowth and bushes that hid the business have been replaced by a regulation beach volleyball court. While that may seem like a lot of work, a
large amount completed by O’Connell himself, most of the work can’t be seen. The bulk of his $200,000 in renovations is tucked away in an impressive array of solar panels, tubing and state of the art equipment that bring residential solar hot water to his 25 rooms and restaurant. The new heating system is as efficient as anyone can get these days and his new water filtration system is a small treatment facility in its own right. But O’Connell is just getting started. He’s two years into his purchase agreement, with the final sale set at the five year mark. “I’m here to stay,” he said. On his agenda next is finishing up a kitchenette-styled room that will offer continental breakfasts. There’s more in store for the exterior, with locally harvested cedar to replace old posts and beams. Each guest room is set to be renovated, though that work will come one at a time. While the beer expansion was a hit, he >> Story Continued | pg. 14

Joe Pete Wilson honored with re-opening of trail NORTH RIVER — A group of 40 avid skiers gathered at Garnet Hill and Nordic Center to celebrate the re-opening of Joe Pete’s Run over the weekend, with 1960 Nordic Olympian, Joe Pete Wilson on hand as part of the festivities. The trail, named after Wilson, was build about 30 years ago. Several years have passed since a bridge outage forced the abandonment of the trail. A recent bridge replacement and trail upgrade, readied the bridge “for skiers to experience its challenges and rewards once again,” said center owner Mindy Piper in a press release. “Joe Pete’s Run is great for skiers who want a more challenging trail that is great fun at the same time. There are spectacular views of the high peaks from the top portion and many interesting turns and dips as the skier descends.” Guests were also able to take advantage of season passes at early season rates and free chili, coffee and hot chocolate, said Piper. The facility is a four season resort offering authentic Adirondack lodging, fine dining and a variety of outdoor recreation opportunities and experiences for friends, families and groups. More information can be found at garnet-hill.com.

‘The Best Christmas Pageant Ever’ comes to town
Fire << Continued from | p. 1
The home has experienced two rekindles since, with volunteers responding for both. Mutual aid was provided by volunteers from Blue Mountain Lake and Speculator, while North River and Long Lake were on standby at the other departments. No injuries were reported. Phil is a homebuilder and built the home, which was insured, where they raised their three children. They plan to rebuild on the same property. “People said to me at the time, why would you want to live there?” Patti recalled when they relocated from South Glens Falls 29 years ago. “But how this community comes together after a catastrophe…this is why. I wouldn’t live anywhere else.” By Mike Corey

NORTH CREEK — Imagine six children who might possibly be the worst kids in the history of the world. Now, imagine that these six mean and obnoxious children who lie, cheat, smoke cigars, swear, and beat up little kids, invade church (they heard that snacks were available) with their parents and suddenly take over the church’s annual Christmas pageant. None of the Herdman’s has even heard of the Christmas story, and the community is in a tizzy. Will craziness ensue? Will the Herdman family involvement make this year’s pageant both the most unusual and possibly the best ever? Yep. This is the premise of “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever,” a play offered up by The Our Town Theatre Group (OTTG) that has performances set for the weekend of Dec. 11 through 13. The play is based on the book written by Barbara Robinson published in 1971. Di-
rector Colleen Doyle Potter calls it a “fun, family-friendly telling of the traditional Christmas story – with a few twists, of course. In the end, everyone learns that sometimes it’s good to shake up ‘the usual routine’, which we can all use as a reminder about the true spirit of Christmas”. The show includes a large cast of local friends and neighbors, including kids, high schoolers, and adults. Potter said the show includes veterans of the stage and that some first timers will be performing. “It’s been a blast working with a true ensemble cast and a great crew, and it’s going to be a great show,” Potter said. The performances are set for Friday, Dec. 11, at 7:30 p.m. at the Tannery Pond Community Center, Saturday, Dec. 12, at 1 p.m. at the TPCC, and Sunday, Dec. 13 at 3 p.m. at the Indian Lake Theater. There is no charge for these performances, but donations to the OTTG are appreciated. ABOVE: The cast of “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever.” Photo by Mike Corey

Course Correction
ur nation is severely polarized. That’s certainly nothing new. I’ve written many columns on various aspects of the political polarization over the years that stalls progress and creates great frustration. Back in 2008 and again in 2012 we all hoped that after those elections Washington would begin taking serious steps toward solving the problems facing the nation or at the very least one side or the other would have enough momentum to assume a leadership role. Unfortunately our national tug of war persists and gridlock continues to be the strategic choice of both parties, despite claims to the opposite. The game of chicken continues. We’ve faced the so called fiscal cliff so many times it seems more like a fairy tale than the nightmare it is. We’ve been told by our elected officials, going over the cliff would be so devastating it would force them to address the major issues too radioactive to touch were they not backed into a corner. Well, so much for the corner! Our leaders quickly went over the cliff this fall without solving anything and here we are today looking no worse the wear on the surface but knowing deep down we’ve done nothing but turn a blind eye to the unresolved debt issues. As sad as it sounds, as polarized as we are as a nation, doesn’t it sound totally absurd that the only way we can manage our affairs is to ignore them and jump off the forbidden cliff to prove how responsible we are? I was taught at a young age to be responsible for my actions, to make good on my promises and to exceed expectations. These were pretty basic requirements for being an adult. It seems we can’t lower the bar low enough for our government and sadly enough we are passing along the results of this behavior to future generations. With the national primaries only a few weeks away the polls continue to show an electorate infatuated with unconventional candidates who, despite their missteps and faux pas, continue to appeal to an electorate that is frustrated with Washington and career politicians. I think the hope is that if we break the political mold we can break the political stalemate and get government working

Thanks for an outstanding sports season
T
his, without a doubt, has been the greatest single season of sports in Section VII. Let’s start with the obvious, the section, one of the smallest in student size in the state, brought home two state championship trophies as the Plattsburgh High Hornets claimed the NYSPHSAA Class D boys soccer championship and the Lake Placid Blue Bombers were victorious in the Class D boy’s state cross country meet. The Hornets knocked off a pair of top-ranked teams on their way to the state title, taking out Shalmont in the regional finals before defeating Skaneateles and East Aurora to claim the title in Middeltown under the direction of first year head coach and former PHS and Plattsburgh State standout Patrick Shaughnessy. The Bombers placed their top five runners far enough ahead in the field to claim its championship at Monroe-Woodbury High School, a course considered by many insiders to be one of the toughest championship courses in the state. Many believe this team may follow in the footsteps of the last Section VII boys champion, Saranac, whose roster included three future Olympians. That alone may make this one of the most accomplished seasons in Section VII history, but there’s more. Along with two championships, the section also boasts a pair of state finalists in the Elizabethtown-Lewis/Westport Griffins’ boys soccer team and the Ticonderoga Sentinel football team. What may be equally for the Griffins in making it to the state championship game before losing to perennial state power Fort Ann is the path they took to get their. Crown Point presented a tough opening challenge is sectional play, but then the road went straight uphill as the Griffins had to defeat seven-time state champion Chazy at George Brendler Field (a feat never accomplished on Brendler before and not since 2001 in Chazy) and defending Class C champion Northern Adirondack, who they had lost two twice in the regular season. That was just to get out of their own section! Then they faced a game against Chateaugay for a chance to get to Middletown and a tough Cincinnatus team to earn a shot at Fort Ann. For the Sentinels, the squad continued to amaze with punishing defense and a relentless running attack through the playoffs, scoring a 6-0 overtime victory against Moriah to advance into state play then dominating Tupper
Lake, Whitehall and Tuckahoe respectively, by a total combined score of 1140. Then it was onto the Carrier Dome, where they gave hits which were just as hard as the hits they received, playing a game which was level, 26-26, into the final minute of play. So there’s four amazing teams right there from a section which usually sends one or less teams to a state competition. But that’s still not all! Jonathan Gay and Margaret Champange both finished in the top five in the state cross country meet. The Beekmantown and Chazy girls soccer teams each made it to the regional finals round, one step away from the Final Four in Cortland. Moriah, while falling to Ti in the Class D final, was the premier football team in the 2015 regular season, finishing atop the CVAC with a perfect record. These are times these players, parents and communities will always remember. It was amazing how many times student-athletes would comment to our reporters how happy they were to, “make their community proud.” Not only did they make their local community proud, but the section at large. NYSPHSAA President and Willsboro Central School Superintendent Stephen Broadwell said this about the accomplishments of Section VII in the fall sports season: “The 2015 Fall NYSPHSAA Championships have collectively been one of the very most successful years for North Country athletes. Section VII athletes represented the region very well this year at the State level. Despite being one of the smaller sections, our student-athletes can, and do, compete with athletes from much larger sections from around the State.” And, as we celebrate these teams and the success Section VII has had in the fall season, we also look to February and March, when teams like Moriah boys basketball, a two-time consecutive state semifinalist with a solid core of returning players, have us all hoping there is more to come.

SilverÊ BayÊ YMCAÊ continuesÊ toÊ haveÊ SuccessfulÊ dinnerÊ comesÊ fromÊ greatÊ anÊ impactÊ onÊ community communityÊ efforts To the Editor: Silver Bay YMCA has a long tradition of impacting the community in a positive way. Year to date nearly 200 north country children are among 700 other young people who have benefited from Silver Bay YMCA programs. The start of the 2015-2016 school year has brought new and returning faces to the continued youth programs provided to the next generation within Ticonderoga, Hague, and other surrounding communities. Over 115 youth are currently participating in healthy, safe, and supportive environments aimed to provide avenues for personal growth and responsible outlets. This past summer brought more than 700 children and teens, including 80 local youth, who enjoyed endless fun and educational experiences through Silver Bay YMCA summer day camp. Amongst such offerings include the After School program at the Ticonderoga Elementary School, the Youth & Government Program, and the Leaders School Program run within the YMCA Teen Center in Ticonderoga. The Teen Center, now in its fourth year, continues to provide local young people with a consistently safe and welcoming environment dedicated to providing ample opportunities to further one’s passions and education. As described by Jackie Palandrani, Youth & Teen Director for Silver Bay YMCA, “The Teen Center acts as not just a play area, but more importantly a safe and reliable haven to many kids who otherwise might be left alone to fend for themselves.” Since opening its doors on October 29 in 2012, the Center has received over 800 memberships from local youth, averaging over 40 kids each day. Silver Bay YMCA is, and always will be, dedicated to providing healthy, inspirational, rejuvenating, and supportive avenues for children, adults, families and the community. With a focus on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility, Silver Bay nurtures the potential of every youth and teen, improves family ties, and strengthens one’s inner self. In essence, all are welcome to pursue the act of renewing, rejuvenating, and nurturing their spirit, mind, and body. In addition, Silver Bay YMCA continues to provide respite to active military personnel, cancer survivors, clergy members, and struggling families with quality and energizing time with their loved ones. Over 650 such individuals and families members have gained lifelong memories and respite through Silver Bay YMCA doors this year alone. Through partnerships with such noteworthy organizations such as the CR Woods Foundation at Glens Falls Hospital, Silver Bay YMCA is able to come alone side so many local individuals and families in need. We here at Silver Bay are so thankful for serving the local youth and our community as it brings us much joy and fulfillment. We wish you and your family the same happiness this holiday season. Please visit silverbayymca.org to learn more and/or to give your support to Silver Bay and the community. Steve Tamm CEO, Silver Bay YMCA
CompetentÊ emergencyÊ roomÊ medicalÊ staff Ê savedÊ myÊ husband To the Editor: A few days ago my husband had a medical emergency and went to the Elizabethtown Community Hospital Emergency Room. The competent medical staff quickly assessed our needs and performed a battery of tests, the results of which were relayed to the Emergency Room at CVPH. (With modern technology vital information can be transmitted quickly from one hospital to another). It was determined that transport to CVPH was necessary to perform a medical procedure. The transport was handled very smoothly. We want to thank the Elizabethtown Emergency Room Staff for their efficient, professional and compassionate care. It was comforting to know that we were receiving the best care possible and we feel so fortunate to have this facility so close by. Thanks to everyone involved in helping to ease our concerns during this stressful situation. Donna Reed Austin Keene
BullyingÊ programsÊ wasteÊ taxÊ payerÊ money To the Editor: Hello readers this letter to the editor is to talk about high school bullying, cyber bullying as well people. Readers I am getting sick and tired of the out right waste of taxpayers dollars being used on programs that do not work at all, like the one at Minerva Central School that took place Tuesday, Nov. 17. “A change of heart” is a prime example of how are taxpayer dollars is being wasted on programs like that, that do not work because you can not have a healthy dialogue and expect to turn this around here come on now. People, schools like Minerva Central School and many others have school boards that only put band aids on this bigger issue here and it is time to go after this and end high school bullying and cyber bullying once and for all people by giving the schools broader powers including putting kids into a military shock program and also force the parents to pay for medical bills and for the pain and suffering there kids have done people and that’s how you are going to end bullying once and for all instead of this wasteful spending like Minerva Central School board did and others as well. Christopher “Hawk eye “ Bennett Minerva central School alumni, Olmstedville
To the Editor: When so much of our attention and news is centered on financial despair, innuendo and aspersion; arguably created by greed and misconduct, I believe that a little good news goes a long way during this season of Joy and Hope. I’d like to acknowledge the intent, effort, and the success of this years Holiday Meal in the community of Crown Point. Conceived with a desire to provide a place of fellowship for those who are alone or without the financial ability to enjoy a Traditional Meal, virtually all agencies in the Crown Point area came together to offer, if only for a short time, a place and time of respite for those who might benefit and feel welcomed. Accordingly, on Wednesday afternoon, Nov. 25, this small community joined hands to ensure that all who attended were filled in spirit and body by the time they left. The meal, consisting of Turkey, stuffing, potatoes, peas, squash, rolls and homemade apple, cream and pumpkin pies was served at the United Methodist Church Fellowship Hall in Crown Point from 4:30 to 7 p.m. There was no cost for this community meal! The meal is a collaborative between and the faith communities of Sacred Heart/St. Patricks Churches, Crown Point United Methodist and the First Congregational Churches. We are grateful to Debro’s On The Way Café, Gunnison’s Orchard, A & S Custom, Crown Point Telephone, Crown Point Citgo, Haps, Village Auto, Crown Point Teachers Association, The Post Office Team, Champlain National Bank, Bodettes’ BarBQue, Torri’s Hair Dresser, the Knapp Club, Avery Energy, CPCS, The Hammond Library, as well as many individual members of the Crown Point area who joined with us to make this a true community time of fellowship and thanks giving. Where possible, the meal will be served with locally grown and prepared items; We are gratefully looking for staff to help us ensure the success of our Community Meal. Volunteers from local churches and the community hosted this year’s community event. No one was paid!! Generous donations were made by local “friends.” These funds helped us to purchase many of the incidentals. Our gratitude goes to many additional members of the Crown Point area who joined with us to make this a true community time of joy and fellowship. This was a “total” community effort that brought together people and resources to ensure true fellowship and a “Traditional” hot meal for those who might not have one, here in Crown Point. We served approximately 140 meals, including in-house and deliveries to those who were unable to join us. I want to personally thank Yvonne Dushane, Charmaine LaFountain, and Lorraine Turgeon. These women from each of our faith communities, provided the leadership and support to ensure a blessed event! It is my prayer that as the months go by, this meal will serve as a point of pride and accomplishment not only for the community of Crown Point but for others who will look for ways to share in the ability to build a stronger, caring community. “Together.” What a wonderful word and what a wonderful way to share. Mr. Editor, I am proud to be part of this true expression of hope exercised in this small community!! Thank you to all! Rev. David C. Hirtle Pastor, First Congregational Church Crown Point
ThankÊ youÊ forÊ savingÊ myÊ cottage To the Editor: We are writing to give our heartfelt thank you to the fire departments of North Hudson, Schroon Lake, and Chilson, who responded quickly early Monday morning Nov. 16, to my cottage that was on fire. I cannot praise them enough for risking their own lives to put out the fire, and preventing it from spreading further. Also for the dedication of these men and women for helping others in need with no monetary return. Thank you again. Sherri McCray & Richard Graves Schroon Lake

once again for the people. I fear that’s a risky gamble but it shows how desperate many are becoming. With the world in turmoil, a frustrated electorate at home, a government that is paralyzed by in-fighting, and a national media that no longer serves as the nation’s watchdog, the nation’s voters must figure out a way to put aside its partisan interests and make a critical decision in the best interest of the entire nation, if not the world. The nation has always found a way to select the right leader at the right time. Our system of government and the American people will once again be put to the test as designed by our nation’s founders to cut through the bragging and over-stated, unrealistic promises to make a choice in 2016. Let us hope we make the right choice and set the nation on a new course to prosperity and peace. Dan Alexander is CEO of Sun Community News.
COMMENTARY
Little Bits Silly “Cold” Jokes Gordie Little
Columnist
H
ow cold was it? It was so cold our words froze in mid-air and we had to go inside and thaw them in a frying pan. You’ve heard that one, right? How many more “cold” jokes do you know? I spent much of my childhood in the tiny northern New York community of Massena Center. Old folks like me remember some frigid winters in the mid to late 1940s. Day after day of minus 30 degrees were not uncommon and jokes about it were spawned. I have heard many since then. They resurfaced last Monday morning, November 30, as we were greeted with temperatures in the lower teens. Not zero yet, but we knew that would be coming. Amazing, because we had just enjoyed 64 degrees right after Thanksgiving and had no appreciable snow on our Morrisonville lawn. The jokes that came to mind are mostly mindless, but so am I. I asked Kaye for input as she washed my underwear. The topic wasn’t necessarily titillating for her, but she responded: “We didn’t pay much attention to the cold as kids in Saranac Lake. We just bundled up and went outside to play.” She also recalled that our kids here in Morrisonville would go sliding and skating in the frigid weather and never seemed to mind the cold. Their noses would run and freeze to their cheeks and it didn’t matter. Were we a heartier bunch back then? We like to think we were. Outdoor play in winter has mostly given way to games on little screens. That makes me sad and a bit nostalgic. I remember a few of the old cold jokes: It was so cold hitchhikers held up pictures of their thumbs; pickpockets put their hands in other pockets just to keep warm; shops were selling coffee on a stick; we chopped the piano up for firewood, but only got two “chords”; we couldn’t drive our snowmobiles straight because they kept turning south; ambulance people were getting emergency calls for people trapped under too many quilts; politicians actually stopped blowing hot air and put their hands in their own pockets; when we frowned, our faces froze that way. I guess our mothers were right, after all; if you kiss somebody with braces, you might need an operation; the local weatherman threatened to keep it cold until he got a raise in pay; our dogs got stuck to fire hydrants; we caught mice playing hockey in our toilet bowl; If you played outside in the cold and peed your pants, you were stuck that way till the spring thaw. And, my favorite: I got sick and my mother served me a block of chicken soup. Or, I know the difference between an iceberg and a clothes brush. One can crush a boat and the other can brush a coat.

Sometimes, it�s yucky Art isn’t always attractive, filled with pleasant sounds or created to make us laugh. Sometimes the goal of art is to make us think; change our perspective or at least to shake us up to the reality that many thoughts and beliefs may differ from our own. I will continue to bring awareness and appreciation of a variety of artistic endeavors and cultural events, you can take my word for it. I am continually soliciting information about activities, cultural events or places showcasing artistic expression. I’m anxious to hear about your programs and share the news with our 50,000 readers.

teah@suncommunitynews.com
ADIRONDACK REGION — The Adirondack Regional Art Trail launched last month to bring greater visibility to the arts around the Adirondack region. The trail launched as part of the interactive North Guide website to connect hundreds of arts organizations, galleries, theaters, artists and craftspeople in a region-wide network making it easier for visitors and residents to plan trips and outings that include the arts. “This is such a big region and we don’t know what’s happening in different areas in terms of art,” said Melissa Hart, communications specialist for the Adirondack North Country Association. “There’s so much to explore in this region and this is a great way to find out about those things.” Four organizations — Adirondack North Country Association (ANCA), BluSeed Studios, Saranac Lake ArtWorks and Traditional Arts in Upstate New York (TAUNY) — received funding through The Sense of Place display at the Adirondack Museum in Blue Mountain Lake. the New York State Council on more. the Arts (NYSCA) to get the project started. “Initially, I was going to do it for our area since we have 12 PLATTSBURGH galleries and 50 artists,” said Sandra Hildreth, originator of People embarking on the trail can step back in time and the art trail and part of Saranac Lake ArtWorks. “So, I came chronologically experience the events leading to the Battle of up with this website.” Plattsburgh within the context of the War in 1812 at the Battle The official debut will take place spring 2016.

It features eight community art exhibitions each year and local musicians, among other attractions. The Adirondack Regional Theatre is a nonprofit community theater that provides a “dynamic, high-quality theatrical experience for people of all ages free of charge.” Created by a band of Plattsburgh movers and shakers to help grow culture in the community, First Weekends were joined by downtown businesses, organizations and galleries to host family-friendly free events and art openings. The Strand Center for the Arts collaborates closely with organizations throughout the region to help strengthen the economics of the North Country. SCA also offers a variety of exhibits, classes, various works of art and the newly restored and renovated Strand Theatre.
“Anytime there is a chance to work with local businesses, nonprofits, galleries or museums, we are always on board,” said Christina Elliot, gallery and museum coordinator for SCA. “The art trail is a great resource for galleries and museums.” CHAZY The Alice T. Miner Museum is a colonial revival museum featuring rooms with samplers, silhouettes, china, furniture and commemorative items from the Battle of Plattsburgh. “We’re very happy to be included on the art trail,” said Ellen Adams, director of the museum. “We hope will help spread the word about the museums in the region.” AU SABLE FORKS The original Art Deco building, now known as the Hollywood Theater, was built in 1937 and has been remodeled and heavily repaired to what it is today. The theater now has two screens, each with 98 seats, and a new marquee. Built in 1911 as a Masonic Lodge, the Tahawus Center served the town thanks to dance artists Rebecca Kelly and Craig Brashear of Rebecca Kelly Ballet. Since 1987, the two have been touring, performing and teaching in the North Country. They now showcase events and projects in education, dance, film, photography, music, science, yoga and art. “We see the Adirondack Regional Art Trail as an ideal way for artists across the region to connect and collaborate and creates an overall identity for the region as an arts destination,” Kelly said. “It also helps point the way to the treasures >> Story Continued | pg. 9

It offers daily programs, hands-on workshops, guided hikes, special exhibitions and more. “The art trail is a wonderful way to connect cultural institutions, galleries and artists’ studios throughout the Adirondacks,” said Paige Doerner, marketing assistant of the museum. “The Adirondack Museum is pleased to be included in this growing project.” Covering nearly a fifth of the six-million acre Adirondack Park, the Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts brings culture to the region’s far-flung population, featuring exhibits, classes and more.

PORT HENRY The Craft Gallery — owned by Jackie Viestenz, Linda Smyth and Susan MoHone — is a seasonal business that showcases about 50 artists and crafters who sell jewelry, paintings, quilted items, pottery, knitted items and wooden bowls. “We wanted to join the art trail in order to make our shop more visible,” Viestenz said. “We hope people will visit us when they are in the area.” WILMINGTON Susan Runyon of Alpine Images Photography sells her Adirondack landscape photographs and notecards. Lauren McGovern of Beads from the Barn began creating beaded jewelry over 20 years ago but only in the last several years has branched out to create pieces with fused glass and metal clays. SARANAC LAKE Saranac Lake ArtWorks is a collaborative group of individual artists, galleries and organizations to use the arts to promote the region through group marketing and advertising efforts, who played a big role in production of the Adirondack Regional Art Trail. “We had a problem finding how to get people to know who the fabulous artists and places are in the region,” Hildreth
said. “We needed to do something.” Anastasia Osolin’s Bookbinding, Repair and Restoration specializes in the repair and restoration of antiquarian books, as well as assemblage and collage art. Art & Design at 421 features pieces by Peter Seward and Karen Davidson, who both present technology against the natural environment and art with social realism while using formal painting techniques.

“The art trail is a wonderful way to get the word out regarding all the creative forces at work in the park,” Larkin said. “We are thrilled to be part of it.” Indian Lake Theater came out after Indian Lake faced the closure of the lone movie screen in town and community members gathered together and raised $160,000 to purchase and restore the theater.

Indian Lake kicks off holidays with Country Christmas Tour By Bill Quinlivan

INDIAN LAKE – Despite the Thanksgiving weekend starting off with the traditional hearty meal, it didn’t stop the members of the Indian Lake Community, along with visitors from far and wide from gobbling up great, quality items available for sale during the 18th Annual Country Christmas Tour. The Tour, as it does each year, took place on Friday and Saturday following Thanksgiving and featured an incredible array of predominantly hand made items offered for sale as gifts for loved-one and friends. The items included knitted articles of clothing, rustic furniture, bird houses, quilts, wreaths, kissing balls, centerpieces, jewelry, metalwork, items for the pet and of course all manner of human goodies to feast upon over the holiday season or right on the spot. Though many of the quality handmade items were offered by individual community crafters, a number of Indian Lake’s local community organizations enriched the mix with items made by their members. These items were offered for sale and the proceeds were tagged for charitable causes and service needs within the community. Among the organizations offering such items were the North Country Crafters at Byron Park on Saturday and the Indian Lake Garden Club in the Ambulance building, also on Saturday. The vendors were spread throughout private residences and community buildings throughout the Town of Indian Lake. A large group of vendors were congregated in the Indian Lake Central School Gymnasium. Here the shoppers were serenaded with Christmas standards and folksongs offered up by the
Adirondack musical group, Northern Lights featuring John Sleckman, Taff Fitterer and Camille Bodden. Along with the vendors and music found here, there was also a “Festival of Trees” decorated by various community organizations. Each tree had a receptacle at its base where shoppers could “vote” for their favorite tree by depositing a quarter in the respective receptacle. This year’s winner was the tree decorated by the Indian Lake Community Theater. All the funds from the receptacles were combined and the Indian Lake Theater split the proceeds with the Community Action Agency. Augmenting the offerings of the craft vendors were the various shops, restaurants and markets in town, including the shop at the Adirondack Museum in the Hamlet of Blue Mountain Lake. The Museum offered a hands-on holiday workshop for the children, showing them how to make their own Christmas ornaments to take home. In keeping with the festive spirit and theme of the Tour, each place of business offered special sales and activities. Of course, Santa and Mrs. Claus made a number of appearances, Indian Lake being one of their favorite places to visit. They spent time reading stories to the children in attendance and, of course, listening to the Christmas wishes of anyone caring to share. All in all, it was a fun and fulfilling time and it came to a close with Indian Lake’s Citizen of the Year, Jeannie Turner serving as the MC for the closing ceremonies on Saturday evening in the Indian Lake Central School Gymnasium. The Indian Lake Country Christmas Tour may be over, but the Season’s Festivities have just begun!
MINERVA — It is truly that time of year again – it’s early December, and that means that the annual Minerva Christmas Bazaar is ready to go at Minerva Central School. The day is Friday, Dec. 4, and the time is set for 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. There will be something for everyone at the Bazaar this year, which is in its 59th year. The theme of the Christmas Bazaar this year is “Golden Memories,” so there will be plenty of gold-themed goods, decorations, and fashions to be enjoyed. This year the host of the event is the Minerva Service Organization, and a lot of work has gone into the planning of the Bazaar. Several planning meetings have taken place involving the MSO and other participating organizations, including the Minerva His-
torical Society, the Sleeping Giants Seniors, the Minerva Volunteer Fire Dept. and Rescue Squad, the Minerva Bicentennial Committee, the Veterans Committee, the MCS Alumni Association, 4-H Club, Community Scholarship Fund, Operation Santa Claus, and others. The gymnasium will be crowded with vendors offering plenty of festive goods, including needlework, crafts, knit goods, decorations, jams, syrups, wreaths and more. Present will be annual favorites such as the Cozy Café; dinner in the cafeteria; the Cookie Walk; a visit from Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus and possibly Santa’s elves; and the lighting of the Christmas tree by Minerva Citizen of the Year David LaBar. Special performances by the North Country Singers, the MCS Select Chorus, and the MCS seventh grade guitar class will also be given.

Beverages will be provided. Please RSVP at 251-3481.
Toy give-away It’s the Holidays, and many of us are looking forward to these busy days as we celebrate the season. It’s also a time that is often very stressful for working families who have to make difficult choices between paying bills and purchasing gifts for the holidays. You can help the kids of these hard-working families with a donation through the Adirondack Community Outreach Center Toy Give Away. This annual event serves over 80 local children, providing much-appreciated new toys for these kids. Both parents and grandparents who attend the event enjoy the chance to ‘shop” for new, unwrapped presents for gift giving. Toy and donation boxes are placed at area business locations for those who wish to contribute. In addition to donating directly toward this effort via the boxes, checks may also be sent directly to the Outreach Center at P.O. Box 201, North Creek, N.Y. 12853.

admitted he’s made some mistakes along the way. Luckily they’ve been small and manageable. Though he’s got no experience in restaurant or inn ownership, his background in real estate and finances have served him well. The ski community is also familiar territory. In recent years he’s run the increasingly popular youth programs at Gore Mountain. Skiing, however, isn’t the only draw, as year-round recreation, such as biking, hiking and fishing keep visitors returning. For locals, there’s live music every Saturday and a reasonably priced pub and dinner menu. If for no other reason than to see what this

nother great Thanksgiving feast is over. It was great to hear that so many families were together. Guess now there will be turkey sandwiches and turkey soups. Both are so good. Maybe I will try Ham for Christmas. What a great couple of days in the 60’s. Yes! In Bakers Mills. So many are enjoying their Christmas trees. I did hang the stockings on the fireplace which is such a great sight. I love to ride around and see all the lights. Everyone seems to come alive at this time of year. The rest of the year the same but the lights are not out with the many colors. With some many losing their loved ones it is great to think on some good things. Great to remember how “THEY” enjoyed the Christmas season. When seeing folks be sure to say, “Merry Christmas” and not Happy Holiday. The reason we have Christmas is for the Saviour’s birth. Talking about some memories I was telling Alonzo about the old box type telephones. Uncle Wilbur Dalaba and Aunt Iris had a regular rotary phone but Bertha Hitchcock their daughter had the box type. When Bertha wanted to talk to her mother she would crank the phone handle around to make maybe a long ride with a short ring. how ever it was. Aunt Inis had maybe a couple of short cranks. Not sure which but I remember Bertha talking it when I would go to visit. Later she and husband Bill had a the regular rotary. Of course there were 10 on the party line. Can’t remember who rang in with dad
and mom. Also, the same with Aunt Lillian and Uncle Lewis Morehouse. They had the rotary phone, but also had a box phone that was hooked up to Grandpa and Grandma Capwells and Grandma Esther’s. Don’t remember the long and short of it but do know about them being able to talk to one another. Ed and Michelle Wallace enjoyed going to see her mother, Joan Hitchcock for he 75th birthday of Nov. 27. Joan lives with her son, Ralph and wife, Vicky near Shelburne, New York. Joan was pleased to have such a special day. Geneva Wolfe is a patient at Glens Falls Hospital. She has pneumonia and a blood clot in her left knee. The Sodom Community Church had their yearly Sing-a-long Christmas Carols Sunday night. I have enjoyed the great pictures being put on Facebook with family. Thank you Tammy Hermance, for the pictures of you and your mom and dad. The Christmas Tree Lighting in North Creek will be Friday night Dec. 4, at 5 p.m. The Community Choir will be Saturday, Dec. 5, at 7 p.m. and again Sunday, Dec. 6 at 2 p.m. the 6th both at the Tannery Pond.

Coaches v. Cancer tournament to feature Class D elite Potential match-up of 2014-15 #1, #3 highlights three weeks of games
By Keith Lobdell
keith@suncommunitynews.com
GLENS FALLS — A potential match-up of two of the premier boys basketball teams in Class D could happen Saturday, Dec. 5, at the Glens Falls Civic Center, a potential preview of a NYSPHSAA championships which will be held at the same site in mid-March. Moriah and New York Mills highlight the field of teams playing in the Glens Falls National Bank’s Coaches v. Cancer basketball festival, starting Friday, Dec. 4, and continuing through Monday, Dec. 21, with a total of 26 high school games. The main event for the event could take place early on in the tournament, as the Moriah boys varsity team plays Section II’s Granville Dec. 4 at 6:30 p.m. at SUNY Adirondack, while Mills will play in Fort Edward against the Forts at 6 p.m. A win for each team will set up a rematch of the 2013-14 Class D semifinal between Mills and Moriah, which will take place at the Civic Center at 2:30 p.m. Dec. 5. Mills defeated the Vikings, eventually winning the Class D title, in 13-14. Mills then lost to the Class D champion Bridgehampton in 2014-15, the team who knocked the Vikings out in the state semifinal round for the second straight year. “We just want to play anybody who will give us quality competition, and New York Mills will definitely do that,” Moriah head coach Brian Cross said. “I would love to Play New York Mills again, but, we have to get by Granville first so there’s no guarantee we will.”
Cross said the potential for a matchup with Mills is why he added the tournament to his schedule. “I’ve added these non-league games to get some more competition and add a little more strength in our schedule, and hopefully this will accomplish that,” he said. The Vikings have started the season 2-0, earning wins against Plattsburgh High and AuSable Valley in the annual Alzheimer’s Awareness Tournament last weekend. “I thought we did a really nice job of limiting AuSable’s shots in the first half,” Cross said of the start to the season. “We really turned it on in the third quarter. We can be really tough when we play good defense. Offensively we share the basketball in our rotation of seven players. Shot selection is not always what I want it to be but for the most part they move the ball well.” The full schedule of the Coaches v. Cancer basketball festival, presented by Glens Falls National Bank, includes:
