TOURIST INDUSTRY HOLDS ITS BREATH

Effects of pandemic on tourism could go either way

By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

PORT HENRY | With Victoria Day just two months away, the travel industry that is the backbone of the North Country economy is bracing for the worst, but holding out hope that the coronavirus outbreak will subside by the summer travel season.

Travel people “are by nature optimistic,” said Kristy Kennedy vice president of marketing for the Adirondack Coast Visitors Bureau.

“They’ve been calling up not out of devastation, just with questions and the sense that we’re all in this together.”

Still, the situation has been sobering. Restaurants have been ordered to close, public gatherings have been limited, theaters and stages have been shuttered and the border with Canada is no longer open to tourists. In Essex, a vital link to Vermont was lost when the Charlotte ferry was mothballed “Right now, the general mood in our area, and maybe the country, is gloomy,” said Lohr McKinstry, president of the Moriah Chamber of Commerce. “We learn of more closures every day. They may be necessary, but just as we’re easing into spring and cabin fever is setting in, we have to continue to stay inside.”

According to a state-sponsored study, tourism in the Adirondacks generated $1.5 billion in 2018. One out of every seven jobs in the Adirondack Park is directly tied to the travel industry. Without the tax revenue from tourism, residents would have to pay an additional $1,700 a year in

taxes to maintain the same level of services, according to the Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism.

In Schroon Lake, the travel shutdown feels like piling on, said Sue Palisano, president of the local Chamber of Commerce. Last year the community suffered through a devastating church fire and a Halloween flood. And 2020 isn’t starting out any better.

“Schroon Lake was hit a couple of times last year, but the community tends to rally and look out for one another,” Palisano said. “Naturally we’re worried, but folks are hunkering down and doing what they need to do.”

A slight comfort for the tourism industry, Palisano said, is the timing of the pandemic. Adirondack restaurants typically close for a spell in March and April as owners plan, remodel and take a deep breath before the summer onslaught.

Except this year the onslaught may not come. Or it might come with a vengeance.

Key to everything is how long the virus persists. “At what point do we come out of the curve?” said Garry Douglass, president of the North Country Chamber of Commerce. “We don’t know, because we’ve never been through anything like this before. Certainly we will market the area when it’s appropriate, because we expect there to be a pent up demand to get out of the house.”

McKinstry agreed that “if the spread of the coronavirus eases up in the next few weeks, the summer travel season will be somewhat normal. If the virus doesn’t peak until May, as some scientists have suggested, the season will be impacted more heavily.”

As of now, there are too many unknowns for predictions. But in

past national emergencies, such as 9/11, the Adirondacks saw an increase in visitors who had become wary of planes. ROOST CEO Jim McKenna said there may be a similar reluctance to fly again this summer.

When that happens, people in the major Northeastern population centers look for something within driving distance, he said.

“We were debating this the other night,” said Keene Supervisor Joe Pete Wilson. “And our thinking was that if it’s bad-bad it will hurt, but if it’s just kind-of bad there could be more people here.”

In the short term though, the impact looks to be severe. Barring an unexpected shift in the virus’ patterns, Canadian hikers will be absent in May, when their Victoria Day holiday traditionally kicks off the travel season.

By the time the border was closed to noncommercial, nonessential traffic, the flow of Canadians into Clinton County had already slowed to a trickle, according to Douglas. “They had already stopped coming, Douglas said. “It was a matter of self-decision.”

An Adirondack Regional Tourism Council conducted a survey in 2018 of residents in Quebec and Onterio determined that 80% of the respondents had visited the Adirondacks and planned to return. Hiking was the most popular reason for coming.

To that point, William Janeway, director of the Adirondack Council said the region is likely to bounce back once the virus has washed through, even if there are lingering economic problems. “There is often an increase in use during weak economic times,” he said. “This is assumed to be because a vacation or hike in the Adirondacks is less expensive than many other options, people more often vacation close to home in times of economic uncertainty, and the Adirondacks are the largest wildland park destination in the contiguous United States — 70 million people live within a day’s drive.”

That will continue to put pressure on the wilderness, he said, and may ultimately be reason to focus less on promotion in 2020 and more on using the interruption in travel to refocus on the health of both residents and the park itself.

Lisa Polay, manager of the Crown Point Historic Site said the virus has already affected programming, but she too hopes that open spaces and the outdoors will ultimately drive visitation. “Potentially this could become a more attractive destination,” she said.

Until the dust settles, ROOST, like others is looking to the future with the promotion “The Adirondacks; We’ll be here.” ■

Lunch ladies to the rescue

Ti cafeteria workers go extra mile to feed kids at home

By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

TICONDEROGA | The lunch ladies at the Ticonderoga Central School had never thought of themselves as first responders until last week.

Last Sunday, regional school administrators met and decided to shutter public schools throughout much of Clinton and Essex counties, effective immediately through at least April 19. The news did not hit the general public until a little after 2 p.m. and when it did, Bobby-Jean Fish’s cell phone lit up.

Fish, the Ticonderoga Central School’s cafeteria manager, was hearing from her staff, all of whom were concerned not for themselves, but for their kids.

“The ladies of the cafeteria were concerned for all their children, wondering how they would be fed,” Fish said. “As I read or listened to their messages, I knew they didn’t just love one — they loved them all and knew that the food service needed to continue.”

Because of its elevated numbers of low income families, students rely both on subsidized school meals and the Ticonderoga Area BackPack Program, which provides children with meals for the weekend.

Both programs had obstacles to overcome.

Ticonderoga School Board Member John Bartlett said that since the order came down on a Sunday, the students’ backpacks were still at home for the weekend and could not be refilled.

By the time her phone began to buzz, Fish and Central School Business Administrator Laurie Cossey had already swung into action. Cossey began work on the application forms for the lunches, and they began to call around to fi nd a staging area where the meals could be assembled.

Along with facilities director John Garcia, they began taking the necessary precautions of sanitizing the work space and making sure food deliveries were dropped off outside to reduce the number of people entering the building.

On Tuesday, March 17, the school’s automated phone messaging system began dialing parents allowing them to ask for food delivery.

No one knew how many families, if any, would opt in. But the staff wanted to be ready.

“My ladies went to work,” Fish said.

They started with 100 breakfasts and 100 lunches. But by the time she got back to her home in Hague, Fish learned that the response was almost triple what they’d planned for. The cooks went back to work.

Wednesday was the first delivery day, as drivers made their rounds, delivering well over 500 meals. “We made 284 lunches and 284 breakfasts.” Fish said.”Our drivers and monitors were ready for this challenge, even though it had never been done before.”

was blown out of the water with that number,” Fish said. “I wish I could have seen the look on their faces when they opened that bag to see they are not going to miss the Friday pizza day — because these lunch ladies made it happen.”

Fish said the school has “a team that is dedicated to these kids from the teachers, to the bus drivers, food service and custodial people working endless hours to ensure this virus is stopped. The administrative team and teachers are taking calls daily to listen to parents’ concerns and ensure that the students get their work. I am proud of our school and how this was handled. Sentinel pride all the way.” ■

The fleet included nine buses and a van that headed to Putnam. Each bus driver and delivery person suited up with the gloves and masks and started the run, performing a“knock and drop” for those who needed food.

Public health guidelines were closely followed, with no personal contact and no one getting within six feet of another.

“We are following rules of no personal contact and 6 ft distance. In record time we fed 284 kids,” Fish said. “The ladies came back with full hearts on Thursday, and we told them we were up to 350 kids.

Meanwhile, Bartlett said, the backpack program was ramping up, using plastic bags and sending them along on the school buses for the weekend.

By Friday, pizza day, the number of requested meals hit 500 breakfasts and 500 lunches. “I

LAKE GEORGE CLOSES FACILITIES, CUTS LANDFILL HOURS, FURLOUGHS WORKERS

By Thom Randall CORRESPONDENT

LAKE GEORGE | The Town of Lake George has suspended its upcoming meetings, closed all town facilities and reduced its active workforce. The actions were taken following a State of Emergency declared by town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson on March 19.

they handle their own trash — weighing it and depositing it in the compactor without assistance from the station attendant, who will be collecting cash for this disposal service.

Lake George highway workers have been furloughed. They are staying at home for the time being, but remain on call for snow plowing and essential road maintenance. Highway mechanics will be on duty at the highway garage three days per week, but the facility is closed to the public. Also, town beach properties are closed, town Youth Commission activities have been suspended, and the Lake George Senior Center is closed for the time being.

The Lake George Town Court has suspended all non-essential functions for at least the upcoming week. Call the town court at (518) 668-5420 for more information.

SHOPPERS SOUGHT TO RESTOCK FOOD PANTRY The town Food Pantry will remain open and will be accepting donations for those in need. Any residents seeking to visit the food pantry are required to call ahead, and a bag of food will be prepared and brought outside the town hall’s lower-level entrance, ready for pickup. Such service is available during workday hours. Town officials are now seeking volunteers to help with grocery shopping for the elderly as part of the town’s Senior Outreach program.

Those able to volunteer are asked to call Kim at (518) 6685722, extension 2.

Lake George Village declares state of emergency

By Thom Randall Lake George Town Board members Marisa Muratori (center) and Nancy Stannard (right) listen to town supervisor Dennis Dickinson express his opinions during a recent town meeting. This week, Dickinson declared a State of Emergency, furloughed town employees and closed town facilities to the public — in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak — and the town board endorsed his actions.

Photo by Thom Randall Dickinson said that all non-essential staff will be working from home.

“We need to decrease the potential of the coronavirus spreading here in Lake George, and we are doing that by being proactive, not reactive,” he said. “We are heeding the warnings and directives from the state to limit operations, reduce public event counts and cancel non-essential meetings and events.”

Lake George Planning Director Dan Barusch said that each essential employee will work one day per week in the town hall. Town personnel can be reached by phone or email — see the town website for phone extensions or email addresses.

The town planning and zoning board meetings for March and April have been canceled — and the April 13 town board meeting — including the public hearing on the town’s Climate Action Plan — is postponed until further notice.

REDUCED DUMP HOURS REROUTES TRASH TO WARRENSBURG

The town transfer station has reduced its operations.

Normally open daily Tuesday through Saturday, the transfer station is now open only on Fridays and Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.. Trash disposal tickets now have to be purchased at the transfer station. These change are effective for an undetermined number of days or weeks.

This reduced schedule has sent many Lake George residents to the Warrensburg transfer station to deposit their trash, Warrensburg Town Supervisor Kevin Geraghty said March 22. He said that his town’s transfer station would continue to accommodate these out-of-town citizens as long as

CORRESPONDENT

WARREN COUNT Y | Lake George Village has cut work hours for its staff, reduced its hours of operation, closed most all of its buildings to the public, and ordered the suspension of all meetings and church services in the village. The actions were effective at 2 p.m., Thursday, March 19 when Mayor Blais declared a state of emergency for his municipality.

The directives, which may be updated in the next several days, cite that the village hall will be operating from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.. People are urged to leave memos or materials for village officials in the dropbox outside the village hall — or contact village workers by telephone or email. Those who feel that a visit is absolutely necessary will be screened in the village hall’s lobby, and visitors must strictly follow state-mandated personal hygiene directives and “social distancing” rules. In the coming days, the village hall could be closed, as most town halls now are.

The village rest rooms are among the many village buildings that are now closed to the public until further notice.

Also, the operations of the Lake George Teen Center are suspended.

The churches were ordered not to hold services until at least Sunday, April 12.

Meetings of the village board of

Social distancing: Convened for their monthly board meeting on March 16, the Lake George Village Board members seated themselves about six feet apart. At that meeting, they discussed various initiatives including the directives that were issued

by Mayor Blais on March 19 accompanying his state of emergency declaration.

trustees, the planning board and zoning board have been canceled until further notice. Also, the village fire department’s routine Tuesday drills and meetings have been suspended.

All Village employees will have their work-week downsized to three days per week, so they accrue about the same hours during their biweekly pay period — and they will be paid at their regular rate as long as they are available daily to be summoned to work as needed, Blais said.

One village Public Works employee will be conducting daily cleaning and disinfection of all surfaces — in village-owned buildings — that employees or other citizens are likely to come in contact with.

In addition, the village and four other entities are cross-training their water and sewer personnel to assure

that if one or more becomes ill or is absent, the workers from another municipality or entity can fill in for any absences. This action is to assure that all sewer and water systems will have the required personnel and a certified operator on duty, Blais said at the village board meeting March 16. Joining this collaborative effort, are Warrensburg, Bolton, the town of Lake George, Hague, Silver Bay, the town of Lake George and others.

Mayor Blais said that the advisory regulations accompanying the State of Emergency were implemented to minimize the spread of the COVID-19 virus and preserve public safety and general welfare.

“We have learned that limited exposure and “social distancing” along with proper hygiene, are the keys to prevent infection — and we must all act on the side of caution and cooperation,” he said. ■

Local business relies on optimism to stay afloat Maddens Pub adjusts to COVID-19 mandates

By Laurel Carroll STAFF WRITER

TICONDEROGA | It’s Tuesday—St. Paddy’s Day—barely a quarter past 12, but the place is already hoppin’: “Three Reubens, hold the sauerkraut!” repeats Wendy into the phone as she juggles high spirits and a tidal wave of phoned-in orders at Maddens Pub in Ticonderoga.

(Wendy is Wendy Shaw of Friends Comforting Friends fame, and she has just returned from delivering a bunch of Comfort Care Bags to the elderly residents of Lord Howe Estates and Moses Circle. “Just to let them know we’re thinking of them,” she said. “Some of them are so scared, you know.

And there are hand sanitizers inside those bags!”)

Like the rest of New York State restaurants, Maddens Pub is prohibited from serving food to sit-down diners, but takeouts are okay—in fact, state liquor laws have relaxed to the point of allowing restaurants to sell take-out beer, wine and hard

Owners Cheryl and Jeremy are cautiously optimistic. “Of course we’re concerned, but we’re doing what we can to stay in business,” said Cheryl as she dashed back to the kitchen, repeating, “Three Reubens, hold the sauerkraut!”

So far, the only thing that’s contagious in this place seems to be the positive attitude. Hopefully, with a little luck and lots of hard work, it’ll stay that way. ■

New York State on PAUSE Only essential business open; Matilda’s Law enacts strict policy for elders age 70+ and people with chronic, underlying health conditions

By Kim Dedam STAFF WRITER

ELIZABETHTOWN |Gov. Andrew Cuomo hit the pause button. By executive order, effective Sunday, he closed all businesses in the state except for essential services, which include hospitals, grocery stores, pharmacies, transportation service, gas station and public safety functions.

Restaurants and bars providing curbside or take-out meals are considered essential.

The order also bans all non-essential gatherings of individuals of any size for any reason.

Called “New York State on PAUSE,” the executive order institutes a 10-point policy to assure uniform safety for everyone.

THE 10 POINTS ARE:

1) Effective at 8 p.m. on Sunday, March 22, all non-essential businesses statewide will be closed.

2) Non-essential gatherings of individuals of any size for any reason (e.g. parties, celebrations or other social events) are canceled or postponed at this time.

3) Any concentration of individuals outside their home must be limited to workers providing essential services and social distancing should be practiced.

4) When in public, individuals must practice social distancing of at least six feet from others.

5) Businesses and entities that provide other essential services must implement rules that help facilitate social distancing of at least six feet.

6) Individuals should limit outdoor recreational activities to non-contact and avoid activities where they come in close contact with other people.

7) Individuals should limit use of public transportation to when absolutely necessary and should limit potential exposure by spacing out at least six feet from other riders.

8) Sick individuals should not leave their home unless to receive medical care and only after a tele-health visit to determine if leaving the home is in the best interest of their health; 9) Young people should also practice social distancing and avoid contact with vulnerable populations.

10) Use precautionary sanitizer practices such as using isopropyl alcohol wipes.

MATILDA’S LAW

Cuomo also enacted a more cautionary set of rules for elders, people over 70 years of age.

He named it the Matilda’s Law in honor of his mother. Regulation applies to people with underlying medical conditions, such as heart disease, or people with compromised immune systems and other chronic health problems.

“Matilda’s Law” includes the following rules for vulnerable populations: 1) Remain indoors.

2) You can go outside for solitary exercise.

3) Pre-screen all visitors and aides by taking their temperature and seeing if person is exhibiting other flu-like symptoms.

4) Do not visit households with multiple people.

5) Wear a mask when in the company of others.

PROTECTING HEALTHCARE WORKERS

In New York State, Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s focus remains steady on all ways to provide proper protection for healthcare workers, including doctors, nurses and others working on front lines to save lives.

To address the global shor tage of personal protective equipment (PPE), Cuomo asked all PPE product providers to sell any products to the state that are not essential or not currently being used.

Businesses interested in selling products to the state should contact Simonida Subotic at 646-522-8477 or covid19supplies@exec.ny.gov.

Cuomo is also encouraging any company with the proper equipment or personnel to begin to manufacture PPE products if possible. Businesses interested in receiving state funding to manufacture PPE products should contact Eric Gertler at 212-803-3100 or COVID19supplies@esd.ny.gov.

To expand hospital bed capacity across New York, state Department of Health

officials, state lawmakers and Cuomo asked every hospital to come up with a plan to expand capacity by a minimum of 50 percent, with a longer term goal to expand capacity by 100 percent.

And New York has directed every hospital to cancel all elective, non-critical surgeries, effective Wednesday, March 25.

TEMPORARY HOSPITALS

Increased testing in New York has identified the biggest potential wave of COVID-19 in New York City.

Working with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, state authorities have identified four sites for temporary hospitals: SUNY Stony Brook; Westbury, on Long Island; Westchester County Center; and at the Javits Center in the city.

As Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) hospitals, these facilities come with staff and with supplies.

“They’re in 250-bed configurations, we’re asking for four of those 250-bed

NORTH COUNTRY NUMBERS

COVID-19 resources for local residents are available on county public health department websites.

As of early Monday, there is one confirmed case of COVID-10 in Warren County.

There were 41 confirmed cases in Saratoga County; two in Hamilton County; three in Essex County and four in Clinton County.

There were 123 in Albany County.

The statewide total surged past 15,000 early this week as testing ramped up in the state.

Even as pandemic spreads, Cuomo is looking at ways to stratify a return to work plan for the state, possibly with a restart with young people who have overcome COVID-19.

The state will begin trials with hydroxychloroquine, a malaria drug, and Zithromax, an antibiotic, with approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Test cases will be reserved for those seriously ill with COVID-19. ■

configurations to be assembled,” Cuomo said in an address on Sunday.

“That will then give us regional coverage in downstate New York which is our most heavily impacted area.

In addition, the U.S. Navy is preparing its hospital ship, the U.S.N.S. Comfort. to provide another 1,000 hospital beds and resources once it relocates to New York Harbor.

“The President signed the FEMA Emergency Declaration which allows FEMA to go to work,” Cuomo said of progress made in tandem with the federal government.

“By that emergency declaration, funding for these services is split: 75 percent by the federal government, 25 percent by the state government. ... I’m also requesting that the President waive the 25 percent. I just cannot pay the 25 percent. We literally don’t have the funding to do it. And by the way, I don’t believe any state will be in the position to pay the 25 percent.” ■

6) To the greatest extent possible, everyone in the presence of vulnerable people should wear a mask.

7) Always stay at least six feet away from individuals.

8) Do not take public transportation unless urgent and absolutely necessary.

Cuomo has also ordered a 90-day moratorium on any residential or commercial evictions.

“This executive order builds on the actions we have taken to reduce the spread of the virus and protect the wellbeing of our friends, colleagues and neighbors. But again, I want to remind New Yorkers that the panic we are seeing is outpacing the reality of the virus — and we will get through this period of time together,” the governor said.

“We know the most effective way to reduce the spread of this virus is through social distancing and density reduction measures. I have said from the start that any policy decision we make will be based on the facts, and as we get more facts we will calibrate our response accordingly.”

Hikers urged to use caution Outdoors activity good, if limited

By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | With social distancing the order of the day, getting out for a hike in the wilderness might seem just the ticket. But some local officials are saying, not so fast.

Group hikes, traveling significant distances to get to a trailhead or taking on hikes that involve any degree of risk are being discouraged.

“The Town of Keene asks that you please hike responsibly and follow the guidelines for containing the spread of the coronavirus,” Supervisor Joe Pete Wilson said in a media release. Those guidelines are as follows: 1. Hike locally. Stay home and hike the offbeat trails that won’t be crowded.

2. Don’t travel to hike. Keene has limited EMS and hospital infrastructure. Any extra demand stresses the system.

3. If you hike anywhere, practice social distancing and handwashing. Stay healthy and active.

“Thank you for thinking of our small town when you decide to stay home and enjoy a local hike,” he added.

Chris Maron, executive director of Champlain Area Trails based in Westport, said his organization had canceled a popular

Bulletin Board

birding hike that had been planned for the last weekend out of an abundance of caution.

But he said that doesn’t mean people need to stay indoors.

“Things look a lot different than they did a week ago, but here is some good news: Our hiking trails are open for everyone to enjoy,” he said in a message to hikers. “Two things that we know for certain are the importance of connecting with nature and enjoying the peace and solace of the outdoors.”

Maron said that the 60 miles of local CATS hiking trails “are a safe place to boost and maintain your mental attitude and physical strength.”

The Adirondack Mountain Club, whose facilities have closed because of the coronavirus crisis, offered a statement, urging members and supporters to stay at home.

The overall message is that hiking is still a healthy pursuit, but only when done alone or with household members.

“Maintain six feet of distance from others.

If you have to go out in public for an essential activity like grocery shopping, keep six feet of distance between yourself and others.

If you go outdoors to exercise, limit it to solitary activities,” said Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo told New Yorkers last week.

Still, people were coming into Keene Valley to hike. “Residents have been reporting to me that there are lots of out of state plates on Market Street and at other trail heads,” Wilson said.

Thoughts from behind the pressline

A few weeks like no other

suncommunitynews.com/opinions

By Dan Alexander PUBLISHER

It has been an extraordinary few weeks as our region, state, country, and nearly the entire world faces historical changes and challenges with the effort to defeat the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic.

Amid the stress and uncertainty we all feel, it’s never been more important to stay connected with one another, even as we hunker down and practice social distancing to avoid transmission and keep each other healthy and safe.

For all of us here in the North Country I would like to take a moment to thank you all for doing everything you can. We are seeing from all corners of our region, people helping people. Our government agencies, medical support system, local businesses, and everyday folks like you and me all doing our part in this monumental effort.

I am especially proud to see our President and Governor working so well together on behalf of our citizens. I only wish it could work this way all the time, and given the economic tsunami we may be facing, they must continue in this fashion until we fully recover.

Here at The Sun, like you at home, we are committed to doing all we can to follow the directions of Governor Cuomo, President Trump, and all our national and local leaders as we continue trying to help each other.

Despite being classified as a Media Essential Businesses, we’ve taken steps to limit the employees working from the office. We are organizing online Zoom meetings and even attending online press conferences.

Our administrative, news gathering and sales staff are doing almost all their work online, by phone or email with our front office now closed. Our limited production and delivery crew continue to keep the presses running and getting the papers delivered to the post offices so that we can keep you informed.

Our graphics and news teams continue to keep our website well populated with the current breaking news as they continue preparations to launch our new site on April 1st. The new site is coming none too soon with advance tools and resources to aid in our 24/7 news delivery program.

At the same time, we understand many of our readers throughout the region are not online. They rely heavily on our freely mailed newspaper packed with essential local news, and grocery, pharmacy, and other retail fliers.

Just know that due to extraordinary purchases while consumers were stocking up after the recent shutdown announcement, several stores were forced to pull their fliers due to supply chain issues with restocking. What may have been planned for sale items a few weeks ago had to be scrapped, but nearly all have committed to moving forward in the coming weeks now that supplies are being restored.

Please let us know if you have news tips or are aware of human interest stories that need to be shared during these trying times. ■

Laughter is the best medicine in trying times. Go head and smile, we’ll get through this. — The Sun

To the editor: The public is facing an organizational crisis brought about by closure of schools in response to the corona virus. It is in a time of crisis that an organization’s members will be (more) eager to adopt new structures that promise to reduce the uncertainty and anxiety generated by a crisis...

Now is the time to capitalize on alternatives. One such alternative in our tri-county-area focuses on an in-depth study of its local history, geography and cultural anthropology, referred to as: America’s Past Through the Eyes of Local History. This project is offered in response to the fact that an in-depth study of local history and geography is an important link in the education of all students in public education.

The following two websites, that are in process, are offered for consideration as an activity for our home-bound students during this crisis: www.americaspastthroughtheeyesoflocalhistory.com and www.dataforamericaspastthroughlocalhistory.com.

The first site provides the rationale and basis for the project, designed for teachers and parents, including a section that outlines the processes for student involvement. This project features a record keeping system for keeping track of experiences that will be used for assessing and evaluating learning outcomes.

The second site is an extensive collection of documents required for an indepth study regarding Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties in northern New York.

There are provisions on each site for input and questions regarding their use; inquiries will be responded to in the order in which received. Please take the time to explore these sites and engage students in discover-

To the editor: It would appear that the town of Thurman has yet another conflict of interest occurring with one of its newly elected Board members. Ed “Brownie” Brown, has worked for the town for many years, recently retired and now holds a part time position with the town at the landfill. Last fall Ed decided to run for a position on the Thurman Town Board, his election numbers were very impressive! At the beginning of January Ed has taken his seat on the Thurman town board.

All, elected officials should go to great

lengths to avoid even the slightest appearance of improprieties. In this case it is all to obvious. You see with this case the residents of Thurman can never be sure that Ed Brown is not being unfairly influenced.

At the very least, as an employee of the town Board, the Town Supervisor Susan Shepler, is his “Boss” When the Board votes Ed often agrees with the supervisor.

“No surprise here.” Recently, Mr. Brown was charged with auditing his own books for the transfer station. No issues, were found. Is anyone not surprised?

Enough is enough, Ed “Brownie” Brown it is time to state, you represent a serious conflict of interest it is time you resign from the Thurman Town Board effective immediately.

Keeping Busy!

By Rich Redman COLUMNIST

The virus has now confined every non-essential New Yorker to stay home. I’m one of those non-essentials now.

For some people, this will be a new way of life. Active people don’t like sitting around, like ants. They gotta move, so discovering a homebound mission could be a challenge.

Stay at home is the order! That means morning coffee with the boys is out, Friday breakfast with the old guys is out, and getting milk at the local store is now your excitement of the week.

Maybe it’s nature’s intervention. We are being reminded, that we are just human, not superior, virus’s bite and that the house needs repairs. If you are married like me, your “to-do” list has now gotten a lot longer and finding a cheesy excuse to get out of the work just got a lot harder.

So, it’s down the list I go!

The living room at our house just got a new wooden beadboard ceiling, the walls painted, and a chair rail installed. It looks pretty good.

The man cave got a real cleaning, and I found junk that I

never knew I had. Valuable must have junk that we collect along the road of life. Fly rods, reels and classic hunting and fishing books of course. Spiller, Tapply, Heacox, Leopold, Wulff, Nova, Wetherell, Gierach, McGuane, Traver, and early Hemingway all overload and bend my bookcase shelves. Now’s a great time to reread some of those grouse and trout scribblings.

It’s a great time to do routine maintenance, like cleaning and oiling all your toys. Changing the oil on the vehicles and checking out the brakes and changing the tires is next, as soon as the driveway dries up a bit.

I ventured out into the depths of the garage and couldn’t quite get rid of the stuff I may need or use someday. I did reshuffle most of it around; reorganized, you could call it. In two months, I won’t know where I put the organized junk. I did find a jar of self-tapping screws I was looking for last fall. I left them right where I used them last, but when I needed them, I forgot where that was.

My woodlot is looking better. The dog and I get into the woods every day for some needed exercise. Next year’s firewood is almost done. Knocking down a hemlock or two and punching holes in the canopy to allow the sun to reach the earth and nurture some new growth is the goal. The logs will be sliced into boards and the smaller diameter wood, used for campfires. The tops and branches are piled

up and once it’s safe to legally burn, it’s bonfire time.

Charbroiled hot dogs on sticks! Woodland Party Time!

You may feel like fenced-in cattle, but look at the bright side, you can catch up on all those put-off projects and do good.

There is the other side: helping others. Giving blood is important, so call ahead to make a safe appointment.

Everyone out there has a talent. Share it! For those who sew, there is a need for face masks. You don’t need to leave the house to help. Cook up a delicious meal for a lonely neighbor, give them a phone call and leave it on the porch for them. Put your talents to work by helping others.

Check on your elders. See if there is something you can do for them. Help cut and stack firewood, trim some trees or bushes, rake up the leaves and broken branches from the latest snow, ice, and windstorm. Offer to safely get groceries for them. Use your phone and talk to people. Granny and Gramps need to know you are safe. Check up on people!

Life isn’t only about taking care of yourself. It’s about taking care of others!

Times are going to be tough for a while, but we will get through it. Don’t live in fear, be cautious, smart and stay safe. Solitary work is the best way to keep your mind off problems and it keeps you out of trouble. So, do those chores you have been postponing.

Make the best of it by keeping busy. We are all essential! ■

The unwelcome guest

By Jean Hadden

Chekhov (1860-1904) wrote, “If a lot of cures are suggested for a disease, it means that the disease is incurable.” We can only pray that in this case he is dead wrong.

COLUMNIST

TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY BLUES

There is nothing today that is more unwelcome in our modern existence than the new COVID-19 virus, the present day unwelcome guest at our door that just won’t go away and threatens us ever so much worse every day.

Americans lived through the Spanish flu explosion, the last gigantic killing force in the early twentieth century and now we are left to wonder if this current epidemic in the twentieth-first century is going on to become even greater and end our days here on earth. The bubonic plague (Black Death), in the middle of the 14th century, inadvertently caused the fall of the mighty Roman Empire and we can but wonder if the new coronavirus will eventually cause the fall of the great American empire as we know it.

The big problem with the black plague was it kept coming back. We now have no choice but to wait, and wait some more, as the government works upon it, to know the outcome this time around.

In his book, The Cherry Orchard, Anton

WAITING IT OUT AT HOME

It is hard indeed for an active American, who is used to working hard and being out and about, to sit at home and watch birds fly past the windows and listen to the clock on the mantle tick away the hours. The one bright spot is phone calls from friends and neighbors who worry about our welfare and wish us well.

I want to thank all the good people and readers who have taken the time to call me this past week and check on my welfare. It has been a great time to renew old friendships in these troubled times.

MY FAVORITE PLUMBER

I was happy to hear from my good friend, Phil Coletti of Stony Creek. For thirty years Phil has been in the plumbing and heating business, just as my father once was in Vermont when I was in grade school. He tells me that he is amazed at the number of people that have fled the big cities two months early and rushed to their summer homes in Stony Creek where the air is fresh and clean. I know that

they must be welcomed there with open arms.

Phil is a fairly new member of the Stony Creek town board and he says it felt strange to have to sit apart by about ten feet from every other board member during their last meeting (according to the new law.) I hear that the town board has everything well in hand in that great little village.

now I am on my second reading. The book covers much of the history of the greater Glens Falls Region for decades.

Joe and his wife, Sara, live in Cossayuna.

He wrote a column for the Post Star for nineteen years. Each time I pick his book up I discover something new and interesting and it helps a lot to fill some of those “forced to stay at home” long hours. Thank you for the gift Joe. Not only are you a King, but you are also a prince!

GOOD THINGS TO EAT

It was my pleasure recently to meet Debbie Ranous, of the Warrensburg “meals on wheels” operation. The program has had to shut down recently due to the on going “flu” but Debbie and good citizen volunteers like her are determined not going to let any senior citizen go without food during these awful times.

Home delivery of meals has been changed to six meals, three times a week, one fresh and one frozen each delivery and Debbie delivers them herself, non-stop. That girl is a ball of fire! These are good people!

NORTH COUNTRY GOOD READING

I am always glad to receive a call from my good friend, author Richard Stewart, from “Peaceful Valley,” North Creek. He is a man who really knows his Adirondack history and lore and we have some great conversations.

I was so honored to receive his latest book, “The Recipe of Life,” in the mail, full of pictures and good stories and he tells some great true tales, past and present, of all that is around him. He lives in the house that he was born in. Thank you Richard, for the gift!

HISTORY AT ITS BEST

I was ever so happy to receive a great gift from my friend, Joseph Cutshall-King, a copy of his new book, Over My Shoulder 2, (1998-2000) in the mail and I have a hard time putting it down. I have read it once and

MUCH MORE TO COME

I have run out of space but not by far of remembering good people and good friends. I am looking forward to continuing next week. ■

Methodist Church adjusts to COVID-19

TICONDEROGA | The Ticonderoga First United Methodist Church’s (FUMC) Free Community Dinner, usually held the first Sunday of the month, will not be served on April 5; this includes dine-in and take-out.

The annual Easter Sunrise Ecumenical Service at Fort Ticonderoga will not be held this year. Additionally, the annual Easter Morning Breakfast at the First United Methodist Church in Ticonderoga has also been canceled.

Due to contagion concerns, Easter morning worship service—and every Sunday service thereafter until further notice—will be livestream only, on Facebook.com/tifumc at 9 a.m. If you prefer to ‘join’ the services at a time convenient to you, do so via YouTube, using the link to this on the church’s website: tifumc.com. Pastor Scott Tyler will conduct Sunday services as usual (without the congregation), and Ronnie Romano will provide musical accompaniment. Easter Sunday’s sermon is entitled “Don’t Be Afraid.”

The Thrift Shop will be closed until further notice, but the Food

1928 - 2020 CROWN POINT | Ruth Marilyn Sergeant Spaulding, formerly of Crown Point, New York, passed peacefully early morning February 25, 2020, at St. Mary’s Hospital, Amsterdam, New York. Ruth was just two weeks shy of her 92nd birthday. She was

born March 9, 1928, to Edmund and Veda (Grimes) Sergeant. Her father worked for former Vermont Governor Percival Clement and she was born in the caretaker’s house of the Clementwood Estate in Rutland, Vermont.

Although she lived nearly all of her life in New York State, Ruth proudly considered herself a Vermonter. In June 1947 she married Herbert Spaulding and they were married for 68 1/2 years until his passing on January 1, 2016. Together they raised three children Richard, Douglas and Vicki.

In 1954 they purchased the GLF, later known as Crown Point Agway, in partnership with Herbert’s father, Edgar “Ned” Spaulding. Through the years Ruth worked picking apples, Crown Point Bank, Crown Point Drive-In, Crown Point Central School and then as the bookkeeper of Crown Point Agway, until they sold their business and retired in 2000. She also was a bookkeeper for several years for both her brother-inlaw Tom at Wadhams Agway and for her

When your family suffers a loss, we want to help you let your friends and neighbors know.

Each week we will publish a list of Death Notices at no charge. These notices will include name, date of death & birth, age, town and the name of the funeral home in charge of the arrangements.

Like most newspapers, we do need to charge a small fee of $65 for a 250-word obituary which will include a picture (if supplied) in the paper. Larger sizes are also available.

If the funeral home doesn’t place the obituary in The SUN you may submit an obituary by calling 518-873-6368, or you may email the Obituary to shannonc@suncommunitynews.com, and she will let you know the cost if it’s over 250 words.

son Douglas at Ticonderoga Agway. She was a Cub Scout Den Mother, Girl Scout Leader and treasurer of the White Church and White Church Cemetery. Ruth was a marvel to behold operating an adding machine. Her fingers would fly over the rows of numbers, pressing down on each number key and then pulling the handle in rapid succession with a large mound of adding machine tape piling up on the floor around her. It was very important to her that she balanced her ledgers to the penny.

Although a good bookkeeper, where she excelled was in creativity. She could host a baby shower, Cub Scout pack meeting, Christmas or anniversary party or other event like no one else. These parties were a combination of skits, handmade costumes, special table favors and always included something unexpected, different and fun. She was just as creative with her Halloween costumes, parade floats, thoughtful gift giving and anything else that she put her hand and mind to, all done with the desire to find, create and give just the right thing to please someone.

Ruth was predeceased by her husband, Herbert; son Douglas;brother Malcolm Sergeant; sisters June Mero and Jean Sprague; nephew David Sergeant and niece Lori Vogel. She is survived by son Richard (Pamela) Spaulding of North Bangor, New York; daughter-in-law Angie Spaulding of Ticonderoga, New York; and daughter Vicki (Patrick) Arceri of Northville, New York; nephews Derek (Loni) Sprague and Edmund Sergeant; nieces Diane Lashway, Jeanne LeClaire, Joni (Dwight) Burkett, Valerie Mero, Holly Behr, Linda (John) Medeiros and Nancy (Gene) Knott; brother-in-laws Harold (Nancy) Spaulding and Thomas (Donna) Spaulding; sister-in-law Nancy (Steve) MacKay; six grandchildren: Eric (Heidi) Spaulding, Kevin (Shari) Spaulding, Tammie (Al) Montoya, Tara (Seth) Celotti, Katie (Nathan) St. Pierre and Veronica Arceri; and nine great-grandchildren: Eric Jr., Jayson, McKenna, Brady and Kayla Spaulding, Avja and Gabriel Montoya, Reese Celotti and Harper St. Pierre.

Our mother’s primary concern was always the health and safety of her family and friends.

Knowing that, and due to this pandemic, there will be no gathering for a Memorial Service.

MORIAH

TICONDEROGA | Sheila Mae Witherbee, 93, of Ticonderoga, passed away on Tuesday, March 17, 2020, at her residence, surrounded by her loving family.

Born in Ticonderoga, December 29, 1926, she was the daughter of the late Norman and Pearl (Denno) Nadeau.

Mrs. Witherbee was employed as a nurse’s aide at Moses-Ludington Hospital in Ticonderoga for many years.

She enjoyed bullhead fishing with her husband, and camping at Blue Ridge in North Hudson.

Her greatest enjoyment was her family, and she was a devoted mother and grandmother.

She was predeceased by her husband, Franklin C. Witherbee, on January 13, 1999. She was also predeceased by one son, James Martin Witherbee; and three daughters: Doreen Quigley, Bonnie MacLeod and Susan St. Andrews.

Survivors include one son, Michael Witherbee, and two daughters, Jacqueline Burlingame and Vicki Witherbee, all of Ticonderoga; one brother, Norman Nadeau, and two sisters, Barbara Reeb and Donna Leavens; many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and nieces and nephews.

WINTER SPORTS OFFICIALLY ENDED

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

PLATTSBURGH | It’s the decision no one wanted to make or see made, but the one that had to be.

T h e N e w Yo r k S t a t e Public High School Athletic Association officially canceled the remainder of the winter sports season, meaning a premature end to the boys hockey; boys and girls bowling; and boys and girls basketball seasons.

“It is w it h g reat disap p oi nt ment t hat we ma ke the decision to cancel the remaining winter championship events,” said Dr. Robert Zayas, NYSPHSAA Executive Director. “We certainly sympathize for the students who are being impacted by this crisis but at this time they deser ve honest y f rom the leadership of our association.”

“Robert and the committee had to make a very tough decision, that is for sure,” said Section VII executive director Matthew Walentuk. “It’s disappointing but with what we are faced with, we couldn’t move on.”

T he ca ncellat ion mea nt the end of the season for t he Sect ion V II g irls a nd boys bowling teams, which included team champions Beekmantown — who swept the sectional bowling titles ­­— along with composite bowlers AuSable Valley’s Logan Martineau, Troy McDonald and Josh Eaton; Northeastern C l i nto n’s G a b e S i s c o; Ticonderoga’s Axel Dedrick and Peru’s James Williams on the boys side and Peru’s Kathryn Bowman, Leita Ciolek, Sarah Williams and Karissa Poupore; AuSable Valley’s Katelynn Miller and Ticonderoga’s Jade Frasier in girls.

It also brought an end to the season’s of Section VII/ Class B basketball champions Nor t hea ster n C l i nton (girls) and Saranac (boys), along with Section VII/Class D champions Bolton (girls) and Schroon Lake (boys).

In Section II, the North Warren (Class D) and Lake George (Class C) boys basketball teams were also alive in state regional play, with the Cougars and Wildcats scheduled to play for a trip to the final four.

“I am very proud of them,” said Saranac boys basketball coach Mike Recore. “They have worked extremely hard and out in a lot of time and effort. We had a strong season beating some quality teams and our four losses were all against good opponents.

Beating Mekeel (Christian) was a highlight and something that gave the team that boost of we can beat anyone, but watching them win the sectional title, which was their first big goal for the season, was the highlight of the season for me.”

“Knowing where it looked like this was going, I was mentally prepared for this,” said Schroon Lake boys basketball coach Lee Silvernail. “I do like that they are working on a way to recognize all the teams who are still alive, there was a lot of hard work that went in over the past four years. They had a great season, but what they didn’t have was the chance to prove what they were capable of at the state level, and that hurts.” ■

‘I have no regrets:’ Section VII athletes address end of season

A host of Section VII athletes found their seasons over without the conclusion they were hoping for as NYSPHSAA announced the cancelation of the winter sports championships March 23 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the Schroon Lake boys varsity basketball team, Saranac boys varsity basketball team, Northeastern Clinton girls varsity basketball team, Bolton girls basketball team, Beekmantown boys and girls varsity bowling teams, and the Section VII boys and girls composite bowling teams.

PLATTSBURGH | “I was trying to prepare myself because we all knew it was coming, but when you see it in writing, it hits you a little different.”

That is what Northeastern Clinton senior point guard Kya McComb said when she saw the news break online that the 2020 winter sports championships were canceled in the state of New York.

“It stinks knowing the season has been taken away from us and not having the chance to complete it and see what we could have done,” added McComb, who helped lead the Cougars to their third straight Section VII/Class B girls basketball title as the team was hoping to make the state final four for the second time in those three seasons.

McComb, who made it onto the 1,000 career point list this season, saw an unexpected end to her senior season along with teammates Brinley LaFountain and Taylor Goodrow.

“This team was probably one of the closest teams I have ever been on,” said McComb.

“With one exception, we all live next to each other and have our inside jokes. It’s enjoyable to go to practice because you get to be with your nine best friends and playing a fun sport.”

McComb added being in practice, along with winning the sectional title, was the highlight of her season.

“It was always fun and now, I look at it and think I probably should not have taken any of those practices for granted because now, there are no more,” she said. “You should play like every moment is your last and enjoy the time you have to play.

“I certainly can say I have done that.”

‘SO MANY MEMORIES’

At the other end of Section VII, the Schroon Lake varsity boys basketball team was getting

ready for a showdown with Section II’s North Warren when senior Andrew Pelkey saw his coach, Lee Silvernail, walk into the gym.

“I could tell the moment I saw coach something was not right,” said Pelkey of the moment Silvernail told his team the rest of the season was postponed and, most likely, going to be canceled.

“It’s devastating,” said Pelkey. “It has been that way since we heard the game was postponed and this just hammers it home. I understand what it going on, but it’s rough.”

Pelkey said he and his teammates — which included fellow seniors Cian Bresnahan, Collin Bresnahan, Derrick Loiselle, Mike Foote and Bryant Mieras — said he would leave the basketball court with “so many memories to look back on.”

“It’s been a special year and we set ourselves up to be in the position we were in,” added Pelkey. “Since the first practice, we wanted to put ourselves here. We did all the dirty work in the summer and fall and we were focused and determined going into sectionals that we were going to win it.”

Pelkey added the final game of the regular season, where he set the Section VII all-time scoring record, was a moment he would remember because of who was in attendance.

“The entire week building up to it was cool, but getting to meet Dan Munson (the man Pelkey passed) and having the chance to talk with him about basketball and hearing he was following me through the playoffs was very special,” he said.

‘IT REALLY SUCKS’

Saranac senior Connor Recore had the same reaction many young men and women had learning the news their seasons were over.

“It really sucks because we worked to get the chance to prove ourselves as one of the best teams in the state,” said Recore, the CVAC co-MVP.

“I have definitely been reflecting on the season we had since we found out the games were postponed, because I think we all had a feeling this was going to happen,” Recore continued. “It was a pretty good season. The feeling of winning a sectional title in basketball was something that was sweet for our whole team.”

Recore said the current Chiefs roster has been playing together since youth leagues as sixth graders, with a roster that includes seniors Recore, Jared Duquette, Sam Carter, Nick Liberty, Brady Hebert, Cogan Johnston and Shey Manor.

Along with the title, Recore added the team had an off the court experience he will always look back on fondly.

“We adopted a kid as a team for Christmas and we all went out shopping for the child,” Recore said. “Everyone pitched in an it was a great experience for the whole team.”

‘NO REGRETS’

While the premature ending of the season will continue to hurt, AuSable Valley senior bowler Logan Martineau said he was proud of having a solid varsity career.

“I have no regrets looking back — I accomplished everything I could have every wanted to,” said Martineau, who was part of the Patriots NYSPHSAA state championship team.

“I was lucky to be on a team where all five of us were great bowlers who I had the chance to work with an learn from, and I think that is why I had the high school success I did. Troy McDonald (another AVCS senior along with Katelynn Miller and Cassidy DeMeter) was my best friends through all of this.”

Much like everyone else, Martineau did his best to keep perspective on the situation.

“I can see where all this is coming from and how bad this is, but its an awful hit to the athletes,” he said.

“It’s tough when the senior year is the one that gets canceled.” ■

Burghers, Cougars, Warriors dominate All-Star roster

By Thom Randall CORRESPONDENT

WARREN COUNTY | Three Warrensburg girls basketball players were recognized as among the best athletes in the region last week as the officials of the Adirondack League announced their All-Star players for 2020.

Sharpshooting, savvy guard Hope Boland and high-scoring forward Abigail Ranous were named to the first team.

Abigail’s sister Aubrey Ranous, known ass a tough defender and skilled rebounder, was named to the second team. All three are seniors.

With three players named All-Stars, Warrensburg had the most prominent representation in the list of girls basketball All-Stars.

Ava Pushor, Lake George’s experienced power forward, was named to the league All-Star second team. A high scorer for her team, she is also a senior.

Fort Edward’s Gaby Thomas was named the Adirondack League’s Most Valuable Player in girls basketball, for 2020.

In boys basketball, named to the Adirondack League AllStar first team was North Warrens’s dynamic duo of powerful center Tanner Dunkley and shooting sensation Anthony

Girard, a point guard for the North Warren team that had been in the hunt for the state championship until the basketball tournaments were canceled due to the coronavirus outbreak. Both Dunkley and Girard will be back next year, as they both are juniors.

Also making the 2020 Adirondack League All-Star first team was Lake George’s power forward Luke Pelchar, a junior.

Named to the second team from Lake George were senior Cameron Orr, and junior Cole Clarke — both of whom play virtually any position with expertise. The Lake George team also had fought its way into the regional competition with gritty come-from-behind victories, only to have their season abruptly ended by the pandemic.

Named as the league’s Most Valuable Player for boys basketball was high-scoring Jarett Williams. ■ Members of the Warrensburg Girls Basketball team pose with the Adirondack League Championship trophy last month after winning the title game against Argyle. Last week, three members of the team — Hope Boland, plus Abigail and Aubrey Ranous, were named 2020 Adirondack League All-Stars, earning their team the status of having the most representation on the All-Star roster of any girls basketball team.

Veteran reporter named Warren County’s new P.A. chief Don Lehman, Post-Star’s top reporter

By Thom Randall CORRESPONDENT

QUEENSBURY | Don Lehman, one of the most experienced journalists in the Capital Region, has been hired as director of public affairs for Warren County government.

Lehman is renowned in the Glens Falls region for his nearly 30 years of accurate, objective, detailed and colorful news reporting.

Working at the Glens Falls PostStar, he was first assigned the police, court and law enforcement beats, and in the last half of his career, his work also encompassed municipal and political news as

well as feature stories. A prolific reporter, he occasionally would have up to four or five front-page or section-front stories published on one day’s edition.

County Administrator Ryan Moore announced Lehman’s new position, which began Monday March 23, with Lehman creating a new Facebook page for Warren County.

“Don is an experienced, steady hand with broad and deep relationships in our community,” Moore said. “He will be certainly be a tremendous credit to Warren County.”

The appointment comes at a time that county officials have been interacting with the public at a furious pace due to the coronavirus outbreak, and Moore as well as other county officials have been working countless hours per week to keep people informed.

Moore alluded to this aspect in his announcement.

“He (Lehman) is the right man

in this critical role, at this critical time. Don has been a trusted source of information to the residents of Warren County for decades.”

Lehman has won dozens of prestigious state and national journalism awards. Since 2006, he has served as a guest lecturer at Castleton University.

Through his lengthy career, Lehman has covered horrific disasters, tragic situations and consequential public policy developments, reporting them with thoroughness and clarity. He’s also sat through hours of tedious governmental meetings.

In his last article for the PostStar, a blog post that appeared briefly on the Post-Star’s website before it was removed, Lehman said he’d continue to keep people informed with his objectivity.

“It’s time to move on, and I’m moving on,” he said. “I tried to be

for this difficult job at a time when we really need him,” Moore said.

“He is the perfect individual to step up and serve our community

blunt and to the point when on assignment, and that’s not changing now.”

He also described his last day of work as a reporter.

“It started at 5:30 a.m. with the morning cop calls, and ended well after 6 p.m.. Those hours, and nights, weekends, holidays at pretty much every type of crime and disaster scene I could imagine did get old in recent years. I have met too many great people to list over the years, told many stories of success and sadness.”

In his final blog post, Lehman praised other journalists who were continuing to work at area newspapers — and he also called for people to support local journalism.

“Thank you for letting me keep you informed and for letting me tell your story,” he said. Please support the newspapers and news websites that remain in this challenging environment — You won’t know what you had until they’re gone.” ■

Warrensburg closes town hall; some employees furloughed WARRENSBURG | In an effort to curb the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Warrensburg Town Hall will be closed to the public until further notice.

Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Garaghty said he and several other town employees will continue to work in the Emerson Town Hall, while other personnel will be working from home. These action were taken, Geraghty said, to comply with Governor Cuomo’s recent mandate for municipalities to reduce their on-site staff by at least 75%.

The remainder of town personnel will be on call, and will return to active duty as circumstances require, he said.

Geraghty said the staffing of the town hall and its operations are to be reassessed on March 31.

The landfill will remain open for its normal hours, but this subject to change.

Geraghty said he will be in and out of his office as his duties require. Joining him in the town hall will be Town Clerk Pamela Lloyd, town Code Enforcement Officer Jim Hull, and an employee in the assessor’s office. Contact information is available on the town website.

In exceptional instances, town residents may be able to meet in person with town personnel by appointment — as long as social distancing protocols are followed, Geraghty said.

“I don’t like this situation, but we have to do it,” Geraghty said about the order to downsize on0site government operations.

On paid furlough for at least through March 31 are three of the four town Parks & Recreation employees — and all highway workers except for the highway superintendent and his assistant. Those remaining on active duty will be ensuring that roads stay passable and town grounds remain tidy, Geraghty said.

All employees of the town Sewer and Water departments will remain on duty, however.

“These are functions that are deemed essential,” Geraghty said.

Those with questions may call Geraghty at 518-623-9511 or the bookkeeper’s office at 518-623-9464. ■

Events canceled in Thurman Town CEO declares state of emergency

By Thom Randall CORRESPONDENT

ATHOL | The outbreak of the COVID-19 virus — and the urgency of keeping citizens safe and well — has prompted the cancellation of several of the town of Thurman’s traditional events, as well as changes to several local services that reach out to families in need.

The cancellations were announced in conjunction with a state of emergency declaration issued March 19 by Thurman Town Supervisor Susan Shepler.

The town’s annual Easter Party, for many years beloved by local residents, will not be held. It was planned for the afternoon of April 11.

In addition, the Thurman Free store, scheduled for April 18, also will not be held. In its debut last year, the “free store” attracted dozens of people who adopted housewares, furniture and useful items as well as collectibles and oddities — all donated by other residents for re-use. This event is likely to be held after the coronavirus pandemic subsides, according to town officials.

All doors to the Thurman town hall, except the southeastern main entrance, will remain

locked until further notice. Visitors with urgent business may enter the town hall by the main entrance, but they need to obey the mandated six-foot social distancing protocol.

Shepler said she and her secretary Gail Seaman will be in and out of the office on weekdays as their duties require. The town clerk is likely to be in her office in the early morning hours, Shepler said, noting that residents would be wise to call ahead for an appointment. The town tax collector will also be on duty in the town hall weekdays through March 31, she said.

The town’s food pantry will continue its regular schedule — open to local residents 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. each Tuesday — but only five people at a time will be allowed inside the town hall for this session.

The Gleaning food distribution program will also continue with its traditional schedule. It is held on the first Monday of the month unless there’s a holiday on that date.

The five-person limit will also be observed for these sessions.

The Thurman senior bus service, which normally transports elder citizens to destinations in the Glens Falls area, is temporary suspended. For updates about this service, telephone the Warren County Office for the Aging at 518-761-6347.

Town officials have not yet decided whether to hold their monthly town board meeting as planned on Wednesday April 8, but at this

point, it is likely to occur, Shepler said. But if it is held, there will be no audience present, she said, because Governor Cuomo has prohibited gatherings of 10 or more people.

Shepler said the town is planning to livestream the meeting, likely on a YouTube channel, or at the least, post a video of the meeting within 24 hours.

She added that no town court session will be held until June 2. People with questions about cases or appearances are to call the town court at (518) 623-9660.

Shepler said that the highway employees are on a two-week furlough, but will be summoned as necessary for any required road clearing, maintenance or repairs.

The town transfer station and recycling center is retaining its routine hours of 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Wednesdays, and 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on both Saturdays and Sundays.

Call the transfer station at ​518-623-2831 for any updates or details.

Shepler said she anticipated that Thurman residents would continue to approach the coronavirus crisis with courtesy, common sense and community spirit.

“I hope all our residents remain well and in good spirits,” she said urging people to follow recommended hygiene practices and social distancing — and to seek medical attention if needed.

“We’re going to get through this together,” she added. ■

Chester curbs access; hires P.I. director

By Thom Randall CORRESPONDENT

CHESTERTOWN | As the number of coronavirus cases rose exponentially last week in New York and tougher regulations were imposed by Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D), the town of Chester closed its municipal center to the public through at least March 31.

In other matters, the town of Chester has hired a new parttime Communications Director.

Jack D. Bartlett was named to the post by the town board at their March 15 emergency meeting. He is to take on the duties of keeping the public informed during the fast-moving coronavirus pandemic, town of Chester Supervisor Craig Leggett said Monday.

“The town board sees this as a critical position in order to keep the public well-informed as our response to the COVID-19 epidemic evolves,” Leggett said.

The Town of Chester now has a Facebook page which will be updated with news and pertinent community infomation, he added.

The various businesses located in the town Municipal Center — Stevenson Insurance Agency, Najer Realty and Tur ning Leaf Counseling Services — are shutting down their formal offices, but representatives of these enterprises will be conducting business, as allowed by state mandate, from the entrepreneurs’ respective homes, Leggett said.

Although various local government operations have been

curbed — as detailed in last week’s issue of The Sun — the town of Chester’s transfer station remains open, following its traditional schedule: from 8:45 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. on Monday, Thursday and Friday, and from 8:45 am to 4:45 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

Leggett said he and the town clerk will available by phone on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. as well as by email, and he will be personally returning consequential inquiries.

“We will do our best to respond to questions and to assist our residents with their needs in a timely manner,” he said. The central phone number for the town hall is 518-494-2711. All town departments can be reached through this phone number. ■
