Yee-haw! State rolls out Frontier Town campground Stakeholders see campgrounds as rebirth By Pete DeMola EDITOR
NORTH HUDSON | Can we get a yee-haw? The first phase of the multi-year project to build a new state-run campground at the former Frontier Town theme park has been completed. Dignitaries gathered Thursday at the campgrounds, located 100 miles north of Albany, to celebrate the opening of the day use, equestrian and campground portions of the effort. “I’m not aware of anything like this in New York state,” state Department of Environmental Conservation Commissioner Basil Seggos told dignitaries assembled before a misty mountain landscape ringed with fall foliage nearing peak levels. The mood was festive. As jaunty country-western music tinkled overhead, cowboy hat-wearing attendees donned pins resembling the tin badges sold at the former Wild West-themed destination, which was shuttered in 1998, portending dark times for the community located off Exit 29 on the Adirondack Northway. » Frontier Town Cont. on pg. 7

FORT ANNE ANTIQUES
SCHROON LAKE | A wise woman once said that a library is the measure of a community. On Friday, the community of Schroon Lake did itself proud by that standard, as an overflow crowd attended a reception for a new addition to the public library, fulfilling a dream that has been percolating for 20 years. The bright new space, above the new municipal court, features a meeting room, computer room and children’s room, which will allow the older section of the library to focus on adult services. The $1.1 million project was the product of both grants and community fundraising. During the ceremony, Anne Durkee repeated the words of her mother, who spoke of libraries and communities. A town is made up of many institutions and many people, but “when a library is formed it is the one place where they all gather; this is what makes a community.” » Library Cont. on pg. 4
