They said the developer, who is Barry Feinman of Van- guard Fine Real Estate, has lined up four plots of land off Route 9 across from Warrensburg McDonald’s. The plots sit on Prosser Road between Super 8 Motel and the Lincoln Logs’ model home, they said. All are within the town of Lake George, although the area is commonly associated with War- rensburg.

WARRENSBURG — Whilegarbage cans virtuallyeverywhere the U.S. wereoverflowing with Christmaswrap destined for landfills,many Warrensburg resi-dents’ holiday trash washeaded for a second life — tobe used to keep peoplewarm in winter.

Warrensburg High Schoolenvironmental science stu-dents have launched a holi-day wrap collection and re-cycling effort, and the wrapwas destined for shreddingand use as home insulation.

The paper collection drivefeatures a competition be-tween Warrensburg CentralSchool faculty and studentsto amass the most volume ofwaste wrap.

WCS senior Zach Schustersaid he saw an Internet news

feed how millions of tons ofholiday-season waste is gen-erated annually, and hementioned it in scienceclass, and the group of jun-iors and seniors decided totake action.

“I brought in the informa-tion, and they ran with it,”he said.

As of Jan. 3, the studentsin John Burns’ Environmen-tal Science Class collectedenough bags of used Christ-mas wrap to fill about aquarter of their classroomalmost to the ceiling. Thescrap holiday wrap the stu-dents collected so far wasabout three times the vol-ume of wrap WCS facultyhad collected in the drive,senior Molly-Kate Websternoted.

“When students competeagainst faculty — like theydid during our school’s re-cent canned food drive —

they really get involved,”she said. “They want thebragging rights over the fac-ulty.”

Webster said she was im-pressed by how many stu-dents were participating.

“It’s really cool to see peo-ple become more aware ofenvironmental issues,” shesaid.

Christmas wrapping pa-per isn’t the only materialbeing recycled at Warrens-burg Central.

Burns said the school dis-trict has had a recycling pro-gram in operation for manyyears, but it was ramped uprecently with plastic bins be-ing placed in each classroomfor waste paper.

The paper waste, alongwith trash cardboard, is thendeposited in a bin behindthe school, and is picked upby the Green Fiber enter-prise, which shreds it intohome insulation material af-ter treating it with a fire-re-

tardant. The Green Fiber outfit

pays the school $25 per ton,which not only earns theschool some money, butsaves even more on avoideddisposal costs.

This waste-paper projectis in addition to boosted re-cycling efforts for plastics.Recently, various recyclableplastics have been routinelycollected by the science stu-dents and delivered to DeanAckley’s Direct Deposit en-terprise, and one of his dis-tributors is recycling theplastic, rather than burningit at the trash plant, as is rou-tine in Warren County. Re-turnable plastic bottles, ofcourse, are redeemed fortheir deposit.

Meanwhile, the bags ofChristmas wrap keep stack-ing up at Warrensburg Cen-tral School, threatening tofill an entire large class-room.

Burns said this student-faculty holiday-wrap chal-

lenge has an outcome that isputting him a little on edge.

If the students win, he’spromised to participate in aPolar Plunge event during

the Lake George Winter Car-nival Weekend.

If the faculty wins, agroup of students have totake the frigid dip.

control, and keep our nose to the grind-stone,” he said.

Earlier in his speech, Stec warned ofslow or absent reimbursements fromthe state for mandated programs.

“The state is facing budgetary issuesof truly historic proportions,” he said,advising his fellow supervisors to keeptrimming away at expenses and aim fora zero-percent increase in the 2011county budget.

“The top priority for 2011 must be tocontinue to keep the pressure on infighting our budget issues,” he said.

Stec blasted the state for its laws andpolicies that force the county to pay aheavy price for questionable programsand policies, while local businessesand municipalities, he said, face“crushing” regulation and restrictions.

“These have had a devastating effectof the upstate counties for years, and

despite repeated pleas to abandonfailed policies, they continue.”

Stec said that determining a futurefor county railroad was a top priorityfor 2011. The county is now negotiatingwith a new railway operator that haspledged to offer upscale tourist excur-sion trains, as well as develop robustfreight traffic at a low cost that willbrighten the prospects of businesses inthe lower Adirondacks.

“We’ll likely be bringing new eco-nomic development opportunities tothe area,” he said of the proposed ven-ture.

Stec praised outgoing county boardchairman Fred Monroe for his diplo-macy. He hailed county AdministratorPaul Dusek — a Warrensburg native —for his work at reducing the size of gov-ernment and boosting accountability.Stec also praised Warrensburg Super-

visor Kevin Geraghty for his expense-cutting as county Budget Officer.

The 2010 county budget reflected thelowest increase in 15 years, Stec noted,despite ever-increasing expenses and adecrease in revenues and state reim-bursements totalling about $3.25 mil-lion for 2010, Stec noted.

In taking his new post, Stec was for-mally introduced to the board, whichgave him a standing ovation, byQueensbury Supervisor-at-large MattSokol. He noted Stec’s financial con-servatism, which included presiding asQueensbury Supervisor for nine yearswithout levying a general fund townproperty tax.

“Dan will do a tremendous job,”Sokol said. “He’ll continue to save tax-payers’ money while maintaining theservices the county offers and preserv-ing the quality of life we all enjoy.”

His career in music start-ed early — he served aschoir director-organist forthe St. James’ EpiscopalChurch in Lake Georgewhen he was just 14 yearsold.

He was founder and co-conductor of the BoltonFestival of Music in 1948,founder and first Dean ofthe Adirondack chapter ofthe American Guild of Or-ganists; and co-founder ofthe Adirondack Studio ofSong in 1951 — which laterbecame the Lake GeorgeOpera Festival. In 1977,Wilson conducted theUnion College Men’s GleeClub in a performance at

the White House for JimmyCarter ’s first State Dinner.His various concerts metacclaim throughout theworld.

It isn’t hard to find some-one willing to share a storyor kind words about HughAllen Wilson. Hugh hadmany passions and it wasevident that gardening wasright near the top of hislist. George and MichelePerosi were neighbors ofHugh’s for the last severalyears, meeting him in theirgarden, of course. Michelereflected about Hugh say-ing, “He had one favoriteflower, a Night BloomingCereus, which blooms atnight and just once a year.Well we were a bit sur-prised to get a phone calllate at night from Hugh,and he said, “It bloomed!”— and so we were invitedto go down to see it. At thetime it seemed a bit oddbut looking back, we areglad we went that night toget a glimpse of such a rareand beautiful flower, as wewere lucky enough to knowa rare and wondrous man— Hugh Allen Wilson.”

Nancy Rhodes of BoltonLanding said, “My greatestmemories of Hugh are ofhis detailed tours of hisbeloved gardens — andhow very generous he wasto give me clippings ofsome of his most cherishedplants. As many hours as Ispent with him over theyears, both in the morningsat Stewart’s Shop over cof-

fee and in his house goingover his many treasuredpaintings and photographs,I knew that I never cameclose to hearing the full ex-tent of his wonderful sto-ries about the people in hispast. I can’t wait for hisbook to be published —Maybe then we will all beable to share in his storiesof a very special perceptionof Bolton Landing and itsinhabitants and visitorsthat only Hugh could havehad.”

Bolton’s Anita Richardsattended a gathering Dec.19, organized by the Sem-brich Museum, at the Lake-side Lodge and Grille,where about 50 peoplegathered to rememberHugh, complete with atoast by Dick Bartlett whilea slide show of Hugh con-tinuously played. At theevent, folks said that Dick’sfriendship with Hugh be-gan when they were 16, at-tended ballroom classes to-gether and learned to playbridge, which they contin-ued to play bridge all theirlives. Members of theBolton Bridge Club werepresent and reminisced.Dick mentioned thatHugh’s accomplishments asa musician were wellknown, but he emphasizedthat Hugh was a man ofmany interests and pos-sessed knowledge on a va-riety of subjects. Also in at-tendance were SembrichMuseum Board of Directorsincluding presidentWilliam Hubert, staff mem-bers and volunteers, ZandyGabriels, and his motherJane Gabriels, whom Dicknamed as Hugh’s oldestBolton friend present.

And Warm Up to These Specials

PlungeFrom page 1

“Wow, that was breathtaking,” he said ashe ran back to shore, cold water running offhis body. “Like my name, man, Carpe Diem,seize the day, start the year anew.”

Diem was one of a record number ofswimmers participating in the annual polarplunge. The unparalleled number of swim-mers necessitated three waves of plungersrushing into the water at half-hour inter-vals, a first-ever for the event. Plunge or-ganizers credited the balmy 45-plus degreeweather for the record turnout.

Near Diem on the beach was Eric Lucas,of Saratoga. This was his first time he wentpolar swimming in 42 years. The last time hewas in frigid waters, was as a youngsterwhen his mother tossed him in Brant Lakein late winter as soon as the ice receded.

Not far away on the beach was a mandressed in a banana suit — Randy Hotalingof Amsterdam stood ready to jump in withthe second wave of first-day revelers.

His friend Darci Novak of Broadalbin hadrecruited about eight of her friends.

“We’ve got a lot of virgin polar swimmershere,” Novak said as she looked at her 20-something friends.

In the water, Don Esey of Schaghticokeand his son Matt, 12, held poles with a alarge white sheet stretched between them.

On the beach, they talked of the purposeof their act. When they get home, Esey said,he intends to digitally manipulate the pho-to to superimpose images of his tavernfriends, as if they, too, were swimming in the

icy waters of Lake George.“I want to josh my friends who chickened

out on this,” he said as the Lac du St. Sacre-ment cruised by and blew its horn. Dozensof kayakers floated nearby to watch the on-rush of swimmers

C.J. Sadera of Central Valley dashed inand returned to shore directly afterwards.

“Omigod, omigod, omigod, it’s freezing,”he said.

Gordon McGowan of Warrensburg stoodon the shore dripping wet and offered ad-vice. “The ultimate rush in when you runback,” the 45-year-old said.

As a youth, his mother, Regina Shaw, mayhave been protective, he said, but some timeago, she dared him to take a polar plunge.Now he can’t get enough of it.

This year, the 45-degree weather was ac-commodating, he said, but the water mayhave actually been colder than other years.

Farther up on shore was a bearded mannamed Carl, dressed in a red wrestling suitand a striped Dr. Seuss hat, slugging downgulps from a large bottle of mint schnappsas his 24-year-old daughter Lydia, dressedin a terrycloth robe and flip-flops, drankTwisted Tea and smoked home-rolled ciga-rettes. The two dashed in the water togeth-er with Carl’s other daughter Hannah, 17.

Caitlin Lefton of Queensbury stood at theshoreline, scanning the 800 or so bathersrunning out of the water.

“It’s my job to try to get to them if theyhave a heart attack or seizure,” she said.

Maynard ‘Bill’ PersonsJan. 27, 1917 - Dec. 30, 2010

QUEENSBURY — Maynard “Bill” Persons, 93, went intothe arms of the Lord on Dec. 30, 2010 at his home in Queens-bury, following a brief illness.

Bill was born Jan. 27, 1917 in East Middlebury, Vt., the sonof Clifford C. and Maisie E. Persons.

Bill attended a one-room schoolhouse in East Middlebury,Vt. He graduated high school as class valedictorian and at-tended Middlebury College with a full scholarship.

Bill began his working career at his family’s business, Fos-ter-Persons Motors. During World War II, Bill helped the wareffort by working at Fellow’s Gear Shaper. In the 1950s and1960s, he owned a service station in Brandon, Vt. followedby a grocery in Fair Haven, Vt. He began a career with Na-tionwide Insurance & Real Estate in his home state. He heldbrokers’ licenses in Vermont and New York State. His trueprofessional passion was in real estate, a career he pursuedfor over 50 years. In addition to raising a family and build-ing a business, Bill was a member of the Cairo Order ofShriners in Rutland, Vt.

Bill was a cherished husband, father, grandfather, greatgrandfather, uncle, and friend.

Besides his parents, Bill is predeceased by brother-in lawRoger Dike, and daughter-in law (Mrs. Timothy) Jini Per-sons. He is survived by his loving wife Dolores of Queens-bury, and sister Beatrice Dike of Charlotte, Vt. He leaves be-hind his children David and wife Brandy Persons, of Naples,Fla.; Dianne and husband Hollis Lamb of Port Charlotte,Fla.; Maynard F. Erwin and his wife Marcia of Charlotte,N.C.; Peter Persons and wife Jeanie of Grand Rapids, Mich.;Timothy Persons and wife Yvonne of Norfolk, Va.; Eric Per-sons and wife Charlotte of Dunnelon, Fla.; daughter MichelePersons and husband Kurt Koskinen of Queensbury;Thomas Persons and wife Amy of Queensbury; plus 20grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren.

Bill will be remembered as a man of integrity who hon-ored his God and family above all else. Although his per-sonal accomplishments were many, Bill considered his fam-ily to be more important than any other. He will be missedfor his good humor, kind and generous heart, and for end-ing a conversation with, “May the good Lord take a likingto you....but not too soon.”

Bill’s family extends an expression of gratitude to hisgranddaughter Nicole and her husband Jeremy for their helpand support during his final weeks at home.

Viewing hours were held at Radloff Funeral Home, GlensFalls, on Jan. 2, 2010, followed by a celebration of Bill’s lifeand a Masonic service. Interment was held Jan. 3 at GreenMount Cemetery in Whitehall.

Memorial donations made be made in Bill’s name to HighPeaks Hospice through: www.highpeakshospice.com or bycalling 800-730-9477.

also posed potential problems with the land he has undercontract for a strip mall.

Lake George supervisor Frank McCoy, town of LakeGeorge code enforcement officer Rob Hickey, WarrensburgTown Supervisor Kevin Geraghty and other town officialsmet with Feinman last week to discuss the prospects of astrip mall.

Annex the land for Warrensburg?Citing confidentiality, McCoy and Geraghty refused to

talk about the meeting, but Geraghty said either his towncould annex the area and provide services, or the town ofLake George could form a sewer district to buy municipalsewer services from Warrensburg. He said the town could-n’t contract with individual land owners for sewer servicebecause the town has no power to have unpaid sewer rentsand have them re-levied on tax bills, which forces paymentby the threat of tax sale of the property.

Warrensburg Town Board member Austin Markey sug-gested that Warrensburg annex this area of town, common-ly called “North Caldwell.” He said this act might be themost appropriate solution, citing most of the business own-ers sited there support Warrensburg acquiring the land fromLake George. Board member Bryan Rounds has said the res-idents of North Caldwell, who’d likely see a lowering oftheir school taxes, also approve of the idea.

Markey suggested a petition drive to get the process un-derway.

In the meantime, the town of Warrensburg has contactedits municipal engineers to determine how best to handle anadditional sewer flow of 3,000 gallons per day produced bystrip mall tenants, Geraghty said.

Retail development like a major grocery store and stripmall would be welcome, Geraghty said, and he predictedthey would spur additional commercial development alongMain Street in Warrensburg.

McCoy agreed with Geraghty’s view.“This could be a catalyst for substantial future commer-

cial and economic growth,” he said.Feinman said plans were only conceptual at this point. He

confirmed a grocery store was one of the potential tenantsin the proposed strip mall.

“We are looking at prospects for different types of retailuses,” he said.

Although he declined to name Price Chopper as a poten-tial tenant, he said he has worked on projects before for thefirm.

“We hope to bring the project forward sometime soon inthe future,” he said. “We feel that Warrensburg and thenorthern Warren County area is an underserved market.”

•100 Years Ago – January, 1911•Looking back 50 years

Lumbering was the great industry around 1861 inthe Adirondacks, just as it is today in 1911. Lum-bering teams furnished the bulk of travel on the

highways in those days and there were inns at frequent in-tervals for the entertainment of the teamsters who wouldstop overnight whenever night overtook them.

The regular price for a man’s supper, lodging and thehousing of his team was 50 cents in 1861. If this seems in-expensive it should be remembered that half a dollar washarder to get hold of than it is now in 1911. When it wasfelt by the teamsters that liquid refreshment was needed, aglass of whiskey could be had for three cents and tavernkeepers set out man-size glasses in those days and the cus-tom was to fill them to the brim.

Gifts from afarMrs. Ella Emerson, who is spending the winter in Cali-

fornia where she has a large orange grove, favored a num-ber of her Warrensburgh friends with delicious samples ofher product, big, sweet, juicy navel oranges of the highestgrade. The fruit was shipped to her husband Louis Emer-son and was distributed by him to the several favoredfriends on Christmas morning.

(Note: Ella Fuller, born in 1856, was the wife of CharlesA. Thomas and they lived in what is now the Senior Citi-zens house on Main St. Their son, Harry Thomas, broke hismother ’s heart when he died in 1900 at the age of 23 years.She planted the flowering bush on the front north cornerof the building in his memory that survived nearly 100years before it was not long ago, cut down in a beautifica-tion effort.

Charles Thomas ran a clothing store on Hudson St. anddied in 1885 when he was 32. Ella later married bankerand state congressman Louis W. Emerson. She died in1924.

Priest nearly electrocutedA Greek Catholic priest who had been the spiritual ad-

viser of Cuylen Toth, who was electrocuted at the stateprison in Trenton, New Jersey for murdering his youngwife, narrowly escaped the fate that Toth suffered.

Toth was strapped to the chair and all was in readiness.The attendant was in the switch room with his hand on thelever. The priest held a crucifix to the condemned youth’slips. His body touched his. Seeing the peril of the priest, akeeper shouted to him and the clergyman leaped back justas the deadly current was turned on.

Winter entertainmentAn “old folks dance” will be held at Music Hall and a

grand good time will be had by one and all. Popular dancemusic to be played will be for a march, quadrille, waltz,two-step and a Virginia reel. Music for the waltz is, “ComeJosephine in my flying machine,” and for the quadrille is,“A box of monkeys.”

Supper will be served next door at the Adirondack Hoteluntil 1 a.m. and the dance will close at 3 a.m. Admission is25 cents. Every feature of the dance will satisfy the mostcritical patron. (Note…The Adirondack Hotel stood whereRite Aid is today and Music Hall stood on the corneracross from Adirondack Avenue.)

Bridge got in the wayLeonard Harrington, 16, son of Edward Harrington,

while coasting on Osborne Hill Saturday night with a pairof bobs, ran into the iron framework on one side of the Os-

borne Bridge and striking his knee on a projecting rail splitthe knee pan (kneecap). He was able to walk to his homeon Herrick Avenue, but when he reached the house hisknee was greatly swollen and caused him excruciatingpain. Dr. Goodman was summoned and was obliged togive the boy a hypodermic injection of morphine to relievehis agony after which he was taken to Glens Falls Hospital.

Another bridge, another boy injuredBeecher Sawyer, youngest son of David Sawyer of Bak-

ers Mills, while coasting on the main road on EdwardsHill, lost control of his sled and ran into the wall built fora breakwater to the new iron bridge built last fall (1910).He was thrown from his sled on to the rocks at the side ofthe bridge and was badly bruised about the legs so that heis unable to walk or get around, though no bones werebroken. He is now staying with his grandfather, Clark Billson Edwards Hill.

Winter work begins in ernestMonday afternoon, Jan. 9, 1911 and well into that night,

a real Adirondack blizzard struck Warrensburgh whichbrought out our road forces with ploughs. Once under con-trol, the sleighing was very fine and the roads were full ofteams drawing logs, pulp wood, grain, wood and coal. Itwas not an uncommon thing to see eight and ten teams in

a string. The winter ’s work has a good start!Charles Baker is getting out a good stock of logs in Bak-

ers Mills for the spring opening. He has 15 teams drawingfrom his farm near Crane Mountain.

News roundaboutOn Jan. 10, 1911, officers were re-elected at the Emerson

National Bank of Warrensburgh. Louis W. Emerson waselected president and James A. Emerson was elected vice-president and cashier. Louis E. Reoux is teller.

A birthday tea was held Jan. 9, 1911 by Mrs. BenjaminGurney in honor of the seventh birthday anniversary ofher son, Paul Gurney. (Note…Paul Gurney was the archi-tect who designed our well-known Queen Village land-mark, the Floyd Bennett bandstand.)

Mary and John L. Tubbs gave a party on the afternoon ofDec. 30, 1910 for their daughter, Louie in honor of hersixth birthday anniversary. There were 11 girls and boys.(Note…John Tubbs was the editor of the WarrensburghNews. His daughter, Margaret Louise Tubbs later became amusic teacher in Warrensburg and wrote the ever popularbook, “Legacy to Warrensburg,” that is so popular withstudents of local history. She died in 1975.)

The funeral of Goldie Albro, who died after an appen-dicitis operation, was held at the Methodist EpiscopalChurch in Bolton Landing. George Potter lost his team ofwork horses by drowning on Monday, Jan. 16, 1911 as hewas working on the ice near Three Brothers Island in LakeGeorge.

Prominent widow diesMary A. Crandall, 83, widow of Josiah Crandall, died

Dec. 2, 1910 at the home of her daughter, Mrs. F.L. Hamil-ton in Warrensburgh. She was a resident of Warrensburghfor more than 50 years. (Note: Mary Ann Crandall was thedaughter of Rev. William D. Stead who was born in 1799 inYorkshire, England, the son of Rev. Henry Stead. Williamdied here in 1844 and is buried in the Warrensburgh Ceme-tery.

Josiah Crandall settled in Warrensburgh in 1832 and af-ter learning the tanning business, manufactured boots andshoes until 1867 when he went into the mercantile businessand was succeeded by his son, Emerson Stead Crandall.Emerson Crandall later built a three-story business blockon south Main St., with stores, apartments, and a frontageof 100 feet on south Main St. This commercial row burnedFeb. 9, 1927. His former home, where he died, is today’s“White House Lodge,” south of the Church of the HolyCross, last owned by the late Jim Gibson.

Emerson married Mary Mixer in 1872 and their daugh-ter, Mary Stead Crandall was head librarian at Richards Li-brary from its opening in 1901 to 1943. In 1959 she died at85 years of age in Westmount Infirmary.)

The Crandall Block (left) dominated Main St. in Warrensburg forless than a decade. The building’s south end was located nearwhere Ray’s Liquor now stands, and the structure extended 100feet to Cal Engle Park in front of the present Warrensburg HealthCenter. No less than 60 feet deep, the three-story building includ-ed five stores on the ground floor, six 7-room apartments in thesecond and third stories, and two large halls for public assemblyand entertainment events. Warrensburg’s first cement sidewalkwas constructed in front of the ill-fated Crandall Block, whichburned down in February 1927 less than a decade after it wasbuilt.

WARRENSBURG — A frigid gust ofAdirondack air blasted through anempty window frame in the side of theExit 23 McDonald’s Dec. 29, as con-struction workers installed windowsand hauled building materials to thefront of the eatery which is under ren-ovation.

This remodeling is primarily afacelift with some interior renovation,according to workers on the construc-

tion job. Large sections of particleboard now in place will back up a newAdirondack-style stone facade sur-rounded by stucco. Several picturewindows will be replaced by the fa-cade, while new paned windows willreplace others already in place.

The roofline is being raised a bit andsquared off as well. The inside willfeature updated tables, chairs, coun-ters, and decor.

“It’s basically a big facelift insideand out,” said Jason Hunt of HuntCompanies, a contracting firm from

Argyle. He said the renovation will besimilar to the one the company re-cently completed for the South GlensFalls McDonald’s and the regionalchain owner ’s anchor restaurant in Ti.

McDonald’s employees said theyexpected the renovation to bring amore contemporary look to therestaurant, which was built in themid-1980s on a plot in the town ofLake George just south of downtownWarrensburg.

Completion date for the renova-tions is mid-February.

WARRENSBURG — As bicycling en-thusiasts met this week to draft ways toexpand and promote their sport inWarren County, town officials hailedtheir ideas to develop new bicyclingtrails and routes in the upcounty re-gion.

County Board of Supervisors’ imme-diate past chairman Fred Monroe saidhe was very enthusiastic about thecounty-sponsored biking group’s ideasto develop new trails and routes be-cause it could boost tourism, which isvital to the area economy.

“Bicycling is becoming an extremelypopular sport, and expanding bikepaths would be a tremendous asset tothe region,” he said.

Monroe’s counterpart to the southechoed his opinion.

“Anytime we’re enhancing recre-ational opportunities up north in thecounty, it’s a very worthwhile effort,”Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Ger-aghty said, noting Warrensburg,Chester, Stony Creek and Thurman alloffered ideal routes for two-wheeledtravel. “Bicycling has caught on withthe public, and the sport is enjoyed byboth residents and tourists.”

This county-sponsored bicyclinggroup, the Warren County Safe & Qual-ity Bicycling Citizens Advisory Board,discussed extension of trails, develop-ing brochures, and advocating for safe-ty, as they met Dec. 29.

“One of our goals is to extend an of-ficial bike trail through northern War-ren County,” board leader Lloyd Mott

of Queensbury said.The effort is to include developing

both backwoods trails and markedpathways along existing roads. Allwould be mapped out and made knownto tourists and residents.

No longer would the Warren CountyBikeway — now extending from GlensFalls to Lake George — stand alone asthe main option for a scenic ride.

Monroe, Supervisor of the town ofChester, noted one worthwhile effortwould be to interconnect existingwoodland bicycle trails while develop-ing new ones. Also, such pathwayscould link up to Warren County’s sce-nic railroad as well as follow theirright-of-way through the wilds. Headded an effort was underway in histown to develop bike trails round LoonLake and Friends Lake.

Also, a trail is envisioned to extendfrom Chestertown down State Route 8to the Schroon River, following CarlTurner Road and Valley Farm Road toPottersville and Schroon Lake.

Noting that bicycling was a popularfamily sport as well as a passion withadults, Monroe also suggested thateasements over both state-owned andprivate land be acquired to develop acomprehensive trail network.

Mott noted in an effort to boost bik-ing countywide, the bicycling advisoryboard was seeking more members, par-ticularly from northern Warren Coun-ty. The group objectives included insti-tuting an ongoing safety and educationprogram for bike and vehicle drivers,and improving the existing bike trails.

Bicycling’s tourism potential was re-cently proven in the county, as Lake

George hosted the Le Grand Tour lastsummer. This six-day bicycling event,based in Queensbury and Lake George,extended to Ticonderoga and Platts-burgh. The August event attractedabout 1,800 two-wheel enthusiasts, pri-marily from Canada.

This year, another event is anticipat-ed: a Centurion series bicycle race to beheld June 23 through 26, with hundredsof bicyclists following a route aroundLake George, and in the process pedal-ing through Hague, Horicon, Bolton,Chestertown and Warrensburg as wellas the town of Lake George. The race re-cently was awarded $33,000 in countyOccupancy Tax funds.

County officials have said althoughthese are one-time events, they will ex-pose bicyclists from afar to the county’srecreational assets as well as prompt-ing return visits by participants andtheir family and friends.

In this vein, the county officials havesaid it would be beneficial if the coun-ty developed more bikeways and trails.

The bicycling advisory board has al-ready blazed about a mile and a half ofnew single-track trails near GurneyLane exclusively for mountain biking,but far greater plans are now in theworks for woods-based trails as well aspaved paths and widened, marked bikelanes on road shoulders, Mott said.

Plans are in the works to use existingcross-country trails in Cole’s Woods, aswell as developing new trails in thewooded Glens Falls city watershed onthe side of West Mountain in the vicin-ity of Butler and Potter roads.

& DINING ENTERTAINMENT

Upcounty bike trail extensions eyed By Thom [email protected]

LAKE GEORGE — Christmas Day Dinner at Caldwellpresbyterian Church was a a convivial event awash in good-will and a spirit of community, according to volunteershelping conduct the event.

A total of 35 people attended the annual dinner. Those at-tending were primarily residents of the town and village ofLake George. Folks from other nearby communities alsoparticipated.

Eight volunteers worked to plan and present the event,with all but two from the church congregation.

Volunteer and church member Alex Parrott said the din-ner was intended for residents of the area that either did nothave family nearby to share the day with, or people whosimply wanted to observe the holiday and share time withothers in the community.

The 2010 meal included two turkeys, a ham, an extraturkey breast, and traditional side dishes of sweet potatoes,winter squash, dressing, mashed potatoes, green beancasserole and deviled eggs. A few of the attendees broughtfood dishes.

The dinner, for which there was no charge, was concoct-ed from donated fixings and ingredients.

Parrott added the church’s Christmas Dinner traditionwas launched eight years ago by Caldwell Presbyterianparishioner Helene Horne, who had earlier shared thoughtswith her daughter about providing a meal on Christmas forpeople in need. About 25 attended the first dinner, and inthe years since, attendance has grown.

The meal, which included grace offered by the Rev. TomParsons of Lake Luzerne, plenty of socializing as well as abanquet of home-cooked food, lasted about an hour and 15minutes, Parrott estimated.

“People shared good conversation and everybody had agreat time,” said Parrott, who prepared the potatoes.

Parrott said some people reported they were hesitant toattend in prior years because of its free status, but when theyattended, their concerns receded.

“It was a community event that bonded people together,”he said. “The more people found out about this, the morerelaxed they were about it.”

Carolers spread cheer through town

Just after dark Dec. 18, if you thought the four or fivecars creeping up local roadways was a wagon train,it was — loaded with some happy Christmas carol-

ers who were delivering cheer with their melodious voicesto area neighbors. In stop after stop, 42 kind folks, rangingin age from 6 to some in their 80’s, piled out of the vehi-cles, dressed in warm coats, hats and mittens and sangold-fashioned carols in perfect tune, filling each homewith the spirit of Christmas. Can you believe the group in-cluded a little girl handing out a Christmas basket full ofhome baked goodies? This age-old tradition is such a de-light to all — and is greatly appreciated! Thanks go to theThurman Baptist church singers for coming out in the coldnight air, and delivering such a wonderful holiday presentto so many!

The carolers traveled many roads in Thurman and sangin 14 different homes. At the end of their day, they allgathered at the home of Myrtle Buyce where they enjoyedhot chocolate and cookies. Carolers express their thanks toMrs. Buyce for her hospitality.

Personal newsHappy Birthday wishes go out Jan. 10 to Gail Needham,

Jean Rumble, Lorrie Smith, Chip Aldrich, and MattKennedy; to Hial Hall IV, Lonna Sonley, and CynthiaFowler, Jan 11; John Baker and Cassie Mott, Jan. 13; andKristen Frasier, Jan. 14.

Get well wishes go out to Carol Hall, Ed Binder, GeriHowe, Brenda Webster and Barb Keene.

Irene Hall of Hudson Street, accompanied by herdaughter Brenda and her grandson, recently took a week-end trip to Oxford, Mass., where they visited the newestfamily member, month-old Alexis Jalyn, daughter ofThomas and Stephanie Hall. While in the area they stayedwith Irene's son Ric and Paula Hall and all enjoyed a dayof visiting and catching up on recent events.

Robin Croissant expressed deep appreciation to AlbanyMedical Center for the wonderful care of her husband,Michael in his recent bout with cancer. Special thanks goto Dr. Nigam and his down-to-earth and honest approach,Croissant said.

Special thanks to the hospital’s fourth floor staff; and toall the concerned people who stepped forward to give

them strength and hope; to all the members of her familywho were so supportive at this trying time, to Tom andTim Baker; and to the “Wilcox Warriors” — all of whomdemonstrated outstanding kindness and compassion, shesaid.

Folks say ‘Thanks’ for citizens’ generosityMany thank you’s were expressed this week from folks

who received the Christmas baskets Dec. 10 in this vitalcommunity-based project to remember those likely to bealone or who are in special need over the holidays. Alsothanks to the teenagers at the Thurman Baptist Churchwho helped assemble and distribute baskets of bakedgoods they handed out while Christmas caroling Dec. 18.Thanks also go to Junior and Andy for the goodies and toMarilyn and Jim for their thoughtful remembrances.

Even though Thurman has endured many negativewrite-ups in the daily paper, it is still a great little townwith many compassionate and caring people!

Appreciation also goes to all the people who showed upfor work on Christmas Day to make the day happier forothers. Those would be nurses, aides, doctors, waitresses,cleaners, maids, troopers, convenience store clerks, phar-macists, babysitters, cooks, and so many others who hadto fill a needed job. Thank you all for being there whenneeded.

Town board awards Tyler BakerAt the Dec. 21 town board meeting, Tyler Baker, son of

Tim and Tammy Baker of Mud Street was presented with acertificate of excellence for his part in the Warren CountyYouth Fair as an assistant.

Tyler, 12, is one of the top students in fifth grade atWarrensburg Elementary School. Tyler has helped at theyouth fair for three years, and has won one of the topawards from the fair managers for two years.

Over the fenceWe are still receiving angry phone calls from many up-

set people who are afraid we are going to lose our much-needed locally-based emergency medical services, andour local ambulance squad — with all its dedicated per-sonnel.

The people of the town do not want their emergencymedical services delegated to Warrensburg’s ambulancesquad. They want to retain at least Basic Life Support serv-ices offered through Thurman Emergency medical Ser-vices, Inc. for now while this agency works to boost theircredentials and staff.

They are very upset with the town board’s decision tosign an emergency services contract with the Warrensburgsquad and hope they will listen carefully to the local resi-dents’ concerns.

Don’t go without food for your family. Thurman has afood pantry at the town hall for all who may find them-selves needing a helping hand.

Don’t let it embarrass you to ask for help as you can al-ways give some back when things improve in your family.You can just stop by during regular office hours or callahead 623-9649.

LAKE GEORGE — The Lake George Girls Basketball teamfell into a mid-season slump as they lost to Greenwich 52-26in a non-league game Jan. 3.

Powering toward the win, Greenwich had a blowout thirdquarter as Lake George’s defense collapsed and the Witchesoutscored the Warriors 18-0, partially due to their in-your-face defense.

Maddy Wilson grabbed 17 re-bounds for the Eagles.

Warrensburg, however put up a scrappy fight.Ashlie Morehouse scored a game-high 16 points to lead

her team, followed by Ariella Allen with 6 points, IsabellaSzabo and Alexa Bryant each scoring five, Maigan Baer withtwo and Montana Sheridan with one.

With the loss, Warrensburg drops to 1-4 in the league and3-4 overall.

Fort Ann 69,North Warren 30

QUEENSBURY — Fort Ann’s red-hot shooting from out-side and a balanced offensive effort contributed to an un-characteristic lopsided loss for the North Warren Girls Bas-ketball Team Jan. 3 during the Adirondack Jamboree at ACC.The Cardinals poured on the offense early, accounting for a27-8 first quarter that set the tone for the game.

The loss wasn’t a dishonor for the Cougars, however, as it

was against the Adirondack League’s premier squad.Cardinal Kara White hit five 3-point shots and racked up

a game-high 22 points during the blowout. Kayla Bancroftadded 16 points for Fort Ann and Taylor Jordan had 10.

gressive on defense for the Bulldogs, as were her teammates.Lake George’s Brittany Baker scored 10 of her team-high

BRANT LAKE — Returning from a vacation Dec. 14,Bob Hayes was surprised with an early Christmas presenthe’ll never forget — a gift from relatives, neighbors andcommunity members.

Pulling into his driveway, Hayes was surprised with abrand new, spacious garage — adorned with a big red bow— standing where his old, deteriorating one stood justtwo weeks earlier, he recalled.

“It was some surprise all right,” Hayes said. “I was flab-bergasted, to say the least.”

The garage and the concrete pad underneath was builtby his sons Jim and Mike Hayes and Joe McGee with thehelp of friends, neighbors, local firefighters and local cit-izens. The demolition of the old structure was accom-plished by Bernie Bolton, the son of Hayes’ wife Shirley.

Shirley Hayes said she was thrilled with the sight of thenew garage, even though she’d been one of those plottingthe surprise, and had signed the building permit.

“You have no idea how our hearts throbbed with joy,”she said, noting the new structure was complete with mo-torized overhead doors.

Bob Hayes noted the new one directed accumulatedsnow and rain away from the driveway, rather than intoit. The new one can accommodate two cars easily, unlikethe former which was built 70 years ago by his father Ed-son Hayes, he said.

Shirley Hayes said she was overcome with gratitudeover all the help from friends and neighbors.

“This made us feel pretty loved,” she said. “We live ina wonderful community.”
