Empire State Trail hits speed bump in Essex County
BETTER TO GIVE THAN RECEIVE
Lawmakers want to be absolved from liability on tricky Port Henry-Crown Point stretch By Pete DeMola
PORT HENRY | A new multi-use trail is poised to span the state, stretching from New York City up through Capital Region and towards the Adirondack Mountains along scenic Lake Champlain vistas before terminating at the Canadian border. At 750 miles, the trail would be the longest multi-use trail in the country. Now as it chugs towards completion two years after the state legislature authorized $200 million in funding, the project may run aground in Essex County, where lawmakers are pressing state officials to grant a liability waiver for any accidents or injuries that may occur on affected roadways.
GROWING INDUSTRY
Bicycle tourism is a growing industry in New York state, one attractive to an older demographic, said Empire State Trail Executive Director Andy Beers, who was dispatched to brief the Essex County Board of Supervisors on Monday. An east-west portion cleaves off north of Albany and largely follows the existing Erie Canalway Trail. » Empire trail Cont. on pg. 5

TICONDEROGA | At Christmas, a 7-year-old can be excused for focusing on the packages under the tree with her name on them. Nevaeh Ashe was no different, except that as the big day approached she was struck by a thought: What about all the children who were not as fortunate as she?

Demand for indie film ‘Garrow’ leads to second show
that a second show was added Sunday afternoon. It’s been a common theme, as the movie has sold out other venues throughout the state following its recent release. Writer and director Lori Bailey said she’s been thrilled with the success, although somewhat at a loss to explain it.

It was a new feeling for her, but the second grader was about to confi rm the adage that it is better to give than to receive. “I wanted to buy a bunch of toys to give to other people,” she said. The idea, she continued, came from watching a YouTube channel, “Shot of the Yeagers,” which chronicles the life of a couple and their five children.
