Richards Libraryfrom page 1

proposed, as provided for in state law, to es-tablish a $98,100 tax levy on the r esidentswithin the W arrensburg School District,which is virtually identical to their servicearea. A vote on the levy is now set for May ,when the W arrensburg school budget goesup for a vote.

Although the amount would, if approved,be listed as a separate charge on the schooltax bill, it is not a part of the school taxes. Itis a separate levy allowed by state law, par-ticularly for private libraries like Richar dsLibrary, that serve the public.

Library of ficials have estimated that thislevy would cost 19 cents per thousand of as-sessed valuation on pr operty owners’ taxbills.

This annual levy would stay in place per-manently — and the amount would stay thesame — until the library decided it neededmore and thus would have to go back for an-other public vote.

The Warrensburg Central School District,with about 6,000 r esidents, includes W ar-rensburg, Thurman, and small portions ofbordering towns including Lake Geor ge,Bolton, Stony Creek and Chester.

Richards Library boar d vice pr esidentPaul Gilchrist said that the 19 cents was “in-finitesimal” compar ed to the W arrensburgSchool District tax rate, yet the pr oposedlevy would al low Richar ds Library to notonly continue to provide its traditional serv-ices, but expand them, while allowing the

board to use the endowment to finish thestalled addition pr oject. he noted that theschool budget is $18.8 million of whichabout $7.8 million is raised thr ough localtaxes, which dwarfs the $98,100 the libraryis asking for.

He noted that other town’s libraries enjoyfar more generous public support.

Richards Library now r eceives $25,000

from the Warrensburg town government,and $2,000 from Thurman. He said these an-nual municipal stipends would likely ceaseif the new special levy were enacted.

This existing public support is indeed farbelow the level enjoyed by other ar ea li-braries, according to figures prepared by theSouthern Adirondack Library System.

Richards Library’s public funding r epre-

sents $ 4.48 p er c apita i n Warrensburg a ndThurman while Bolton Free Library receives$17.68 per r esident, the Lake Geor ge-Cald-well Library r eceives $22.80 per capita,Brant Lake Free Library gets $14.74 per capi-ta, and Chestertown, $19.15 per r esident.The Chestertown Library also gets its utili-ty expenses and facility costs paid by thetown taxpayers as well.

Sept. 26, library board members asked theWarrensburg school board to hold a vote onthe special levy separate fr om the annualschool budget vote, so area residents wouldnot link the library levy to the school budg-et. Gilchrist said r egional library of ficialsrecommended holding a vote at a separatetime and place.

“A large number of people turn out to voteNo on the school budget because it’s the 800-pound gorilla of taxation,” he said. “W ewant people to go to vote specifically for thelibrary proposition — we want this issue tofly on its own.”

However, the school boar d voted 4-0 tohold it on the school boar d election day inMay, citing that there would likely be a bet-ter turnout that day.

Richards Library Boar d Pr esident SusanJordan said this week that the institution hasfor a century provided so much for so manypeople in the area — and with the uncertaineconomy, more residents than ever are usingthe library, particularly for Internet use.

“Richards Library is our ar ea communi-ties’ history and our futur e, it provides ourarchives,” she said. “It’s a vital resource, andit’s important to have it supported.”

Ellsworth family members (lef t to right): K ara, 10, Trevor, 9, and mother P eggy Ellsworth check out booksSept. 28 from Richards Library, with the help of librarian Barbara Whitford. Facing financial shortfalls, RichardsLibrary of Warrensburg has proposed a special levy of $98,100 for its operating expenses, freeing up otherfunding sources to bankroll completion of a stalled addition project.

BOLTON LANDING—Bolton Central School hasjoined with W arrensburg

and Fort Ann school districtsto create an alternative aca-demic pr ogram to r eplacethe BOCES Alternative HighSchool that closed last year.

The new BOCES program

is located at the Fort AnnCentral school.

After the closing of theformer pr ogram that washoused at the SouthernAdirondack Education Cen-ter on Dix Avenue in HudsonFalls, it was determined thatthere was still a need for thistype of pr ogram for a seg-ment of high school stu-dents.

The thr ee school districtsdeveloped guidelines for theshared alternative academicprogram for students ingrades 9 and 10. The districtswill share staff members andthe pr ogram cost. The sav-ings of the mer ge will cost

the district about half ofwhat it would have been tosend students to the W ash-ington-Saratoga-Warren-Hamilton-Essex BOCES.

The districts will also con-tinue to r eceive BOCES aidbecause the program is coor-dinated through BOCES.

According to a pr ess r e-lease by the Bolton CentralSchool District, other neigh-boring high schools havealso expressed an interest tobe involved in the pr ogramat some point.

There are currently sevenstudents enr olled fr om theBolton school, but adminis-trators hope to fill the r e-

maining five openingsbringing the total enr oll-ment to the maximum of 12.

Alternative pr ogram stu-dents l eave t heir c lassroomfor science lab, gym, andelectives to attend.

“We ar e fortunate to livein a region where we are sur-rounded by competent andcollaborative neighboringschool districts whose stu-dents have similar pr ofilesand needs,” said Bolton Cen-tral School SuperintendentRay Ciccarelli. “The Alterna-tive program is but one ex-ample of our potential toshare ef forts and furthersupport our students.”

Ms. Sondra Smith hasbeen hired as a counselor tooversee the pr ogram. Previ-ously, Sm ith was the coun-selor for the Best Program atWSWHE BOCES last year .She earned a bachelor ’s de-gree in psychology and reg-

ular and special education ingrades 1-9 fr om Nazar ethCollege. In addition, sheholds a m aster ’s d egree i nschool counseling from Rus-sell Sage College.

Smith said students ar epicked from their homeschools to attend this pr o-gram.

“It’s for students whoneed extra support or needto get caught up on theircredits. Many ar e on trackfor a Regents diploma, butare mor e successful in asmaller, more relaxed class-room setting. Students mayopt to r eturn to their homeschool once they havecaught up on their studies,”Smith said

Brooke Raf ferty, a ninthgrader fr om W arrensburgsaid, “It’s a great opportuni-ty to get caught up, thanks tothe one-on-one instruction.”

Adirondack Journal Editorial

These are difficult times forschool districts. They face un-precedented budget cuts while

at the same time feel the pressure to of-fer better educational opportunities forstudents. And it’s about to get eventougher. The new state 2 percent taxcap will handcuff schools even more inthe 2012-13 academic year.

What’s a school administrator to do?The answer may well lie in sharedservices.

The state comptroller ’s office has is-sued a paper on “Local Governmentand School Accountability.” The topitem in its list of suggested school cost-saving measurers is “cooperation andconsolidation.” While Ticonderoga andCrown Point school districts haveasked the Department of State for anapplication for grant money to conducta merger study, it’s unlikely any localschools will be combining in the nearfuture. That leaves cooperation.

This fall Crown Point is sending sixstudents to Ticonderoga High Schooldaily to take a physics class. CrownPoint will pay Ti for cost of lab materi-als and incidentals, but the agreementis much less expensive for Crown Pointthan hiring a physics teacher and set-ting up a lab.

“It’s working out very well,” JohnMcDonald, Ticonderoga superintend-ent, said. “It’s a good opportunity forthese kids to get a class normally notavailable to them. We’re happy to pro-vide it.”

McDonald is also pleased localschools are sharing some transporta-tion costs this year.

Moriah shuttles St. Mary’s studentsfrom Crown Point to and from theTiconderoga school daily. Ticonderogadrops off and picks up Crown Point’sCV-Tech Mineville students on theirway by twice a day.

“Our efforts to share services as wecan speaks to the ways all our districts

are doing their best to make opportuni-ties for students available within limit-ed budget constraints,” Shari Bran-nock, Crown Point superintendent,said.

Shared services is nothing new formany scholastic athletic teams. Miner-va-Newcomb and Indian Lake-LongLake have fielded combined sportsteams for several years. Moiah, West-port, Keene and Elizabethtown-Lewishave had joint track and swimmingteams. Saranac, Peru and SetonCatholic share a hockey team.

And there are opportunities for othershared services, such as joining forceswith local colleges.

Crown Point and other area districtsparticipate with North Country Com-munity College and Paul Smith’s Col-lege to offer classes that simultaneous-ly garner high school and college cred-it. The classes are taught at localschools by local teachers with the ap-proval of NCCC and Paul Smith’s.

The NCCC and Paul Smith’s classesinclude English composition I and II,creative writing, Adirondack history,psychology, American history I and II,integrated algebra, statistics, financialaccounting, and introduction to nutri-tion.

Schroon Lake Central School hassimilar arrangements with SUNY-Al-bany and Adirondack Community Col-lege.

School district administrators needto take a close look at their neighborswith an eye toward sharing even moreservices — services that ultimatelybenefit students and taxpayers.

This editorial is the collaborative opin-ion of a board comprised of Thom Randall,Fred Herbst, Lou V arricchio, Keith Lob-dell, Jeremiah Papineau, Andy Flynn andJohn Gereau. Comments may be directed [email protected].

Shared services keyto school futures The election cycle is

now in prime time,both on the local

scene as well as nationallywith next year’s presidentialcampaigning in full swing.As I began developing a planfor this week’s column mythoughts kept alternating be-tween the local and nationalscene, with the common de-nominator being the frustra-tion so many feel about ourpolitical system. There is anold saying about the defini-tion of “insanity,” it’s doing the same thingover and over again and expecting a differ-ent outcome. The older you get and moreelection cycles you’ve lived through youbegin to look at that definition with an en-tirely different set of eyes.

In today’s society we’ve accepted theconcept of “winning at all cost.” Spurredon perhaps by sports competition, talkingheads, political figures, television showsand product advertisements, society seemsto condone that “winning at all cost” pro-duces collateral casualties. Still, we lovewinners… right up to the time they lose.Then we shrug our shoulders, jump off thelosing band wagon and look for the nextrising star to latch on to.

There is so much at stake both locallyand nationally in the upcoming electionsthat we can not afford to get caught up inthe hype of the campaign, nor can we asvoters continue to be a part of the past elec-tion cycle insanity, doing the same thingover and over then being disappointedwhen the results leave us right back wherewe were. Perhaps it’s not the hype of thecampaigns that needs to change but themanner in which the electorate responds tothe campaigns. No longer can we dependon voting the party line, nor can we just“vote the bums out” because the new“bum” may be worse than the previous“bum.” Protesting the political system asthe Tea Party has tried to do, has only re-sulted in them being marginalized and de-monized by the establishment. So wheredoes that leave us if we are truly looking tochange the direction of government?

The political machines and candidatesknow what we want and they know how tomake us feel like they will give us the re-sults we long for. Every election cycle webite at the same bait, so perhaps this cycleit’s not up to those running to make thechanges we need, instead let’s agree thatit’s up to the electorate to alter our course

of participation or be pre-pared to suffer the same fateas in past years. Oh, wemight get lucky and theright person or persons justhappen into office, but askyourself, do you want torisk the fate of your futureor that of your children orgrandchildren to pure luck?

More than ever we needto approach this cycle dif-ferently. We can not let thepolitical machines, the po-litical parties nor our past

allegiance dictate our course of action. Wemust be far more inquisitive, take a muchstronger role in listening to what the candi-dates are saying and research their truepast voting record than listen to the spindoctors and take their word as gospel.Whatever method or methods you’ve usedin the past to arrive at your choice forpulling the lever, you’ve got to approachthis cycle differently. Be more informed,less gullible, less predictable and far moreinvolved. We need to quit picking sidesand look for candidates who will reachacross party lines to address the concernswe all share.

We need to recognize the shared sacri-fices we must all make to move the econo-my forward. It won’t happen solely on thebacks of any one group, be it the rich, themiddleclass or the poor or under-privi-leged. Class warfare only creates more in-fighting and we can’t allow the politicalsystems to get us so focused fightingamong ourselves that we neglect who leadus to this point and who keeps fanning thefires of class warfare. Our next electedleaders must address the injustices that ex-ist within our systems and propose solu-tions immune to the influences of lobbyistand power brokers that have manipulatedour elected officials and the system fortheir own advantage. This goes for nationalelections as well as state and local elec-tions.

On the local side, because our communi-ties are so small and so tight-knit, we musthave even more transparency so as to avoidthe appearance of personal vendettas whilestaying focused on the issues, facts and costsaving solutions that must be initiated.

Let’s face it, the system won’t get anybetter until we make it better and the onlyway that happens is for us to change howwe respond and stay focused on commonground we can all agree on rather than al-lowing those issues we can’t agree on to ir-reparably divide us.

Do not take your right to vote lightly

•100 Years Ago – Oct. 1911•‘Bear Waller’ Club boys

The “Bear Waller” Club, composed of War-rensburgh’s mightiest nimr ods, started forthe tall timber on Oct. 20, 191 1, leaving byautomobile as early as Counselor Lewis E.Crandall could be routed from his bed. Theyestablished their camp at Sawyer ’s clearingon the Sacandaga River and will r emainthere until the close of the deer hunting sea-son on Oct. 31, 1911. It was agreed upon thatthe woods are full of deer and their captureis comparatively easy if a man just knowshow to shoot straight.

This will be their third annual expedition,“Big Chief” Herb Smith will lead the partyto the lair of the weary deer . E. C, Manzerwill fill his old position as “Little Chief” andCounselor Crandall will again have char geof the “grub list” and the larder will be wellsupplied. Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Wescott will

preside over the culinary department.Other hunters on the trip will be Dr . W.F.

Wilkinson, Dr. James E. Goodman, Barry W.Woodward, William Condon, Orley Magee,Charles Gr een, James Guyette, Clar enceRussell, Herbert C. Smith and Clyde Ross.

Note: The pr estigious Bear W aller Clubwas organized in 1909 by Warrensburgh bar-ber Ernest C. “Kid” Manzer and was proba-bly the most popular and best known hunt-ing club in this part of the Adirondacks. Formany years each fall the “Bear W allers”pitched tents in the Or egon section of theTown of Johnsburgh for the annual huntingseason. The “Kid” was best known for thewhite albino deer that he shot in 1907, a rarespecimen seldom if ever seen.

After he originally moved here from Eng-land, his first shop was on the second floorof the Crystal Pharmacy which stood formany years near the sidewalk at the northend of the present day IGA store parking lot,before it later burned. He also had a shop atone time on the corner of Main Str eet andAdirondack Avenue, a little building calledTrilby Cottage on the lawn in front of today’sRite Aid pharmacy. Manzer conducted a bar-ber shop in Warrensburgh for 52 years beforehe retired in 1938. He married Eva Knicker-bocker in 1898 at the Methodist parsonage.

Just one hundr ed years ago, September ,1911, Manzer bought E.A. Moore’s residenceproperty on Upper Main Str eet and movedin as soon as many necessary r epairs wer emade and the tenant, Philo Reynolds hadmoved his family out and into SelahReynolds’ house on King Street Addition.

Kid Manzer in his later years was a steadygolf player at the Queen Village Club coursewhere he won several trophies. He was alsoa loyal and steadfast member of the Odd Fel-lows’ Lodge. Kid was 85 years old when hedied in Mar ch of 1958 at the home of hisnephew in Essex Junction, V ermont and hewas buried here on the new west side of theWarrensburgh Cemetery.

In honor of Kid Manzer and the other ea-ger Bear Waller hunters who took such de-light in pursuing fleet footed deer at the turnof the century, there will be a special exhib-it at the Warrensburgh Museum of Local His-tory starting on Sunday , Oct. 16, 201 1 withmany gr eat photos and artifacts fr om that

era, centered around hunting and the club.

Barber shop debateThe current topic of discussion among the

customers and those who just like to hangout at Kid Manzers barber shop is quite abrain twister. The heavy question being de-bated concerns an old man of fifty and ayoung man of twenty-eight, both widowers.The young man has a step-daughter of thir-ty-eight years old that he married to the old-er gentleman and in r eturn takes the oldman’s daughter for a wife. The question is,what relation are these four people to eachother? There are many opinions but an an-swer has not as of yet been satisfactory de-cided upon.

Odd Fellows crack down on viceHotel-keepers holding saloon licenses are

barred fr om the Odd Fellows’ or der by ac-tion taken at the meeting of the Sover eignGrand Lodge in session in Indianapolis inOctober, 191 1. Saloon keepers have beenbarred for some time. The new order affect-ing hotel men applies only to the future ap-plicants for membership. A r esolution wasalso adopted pr ohibiting smoking in thelodge rooms during sessions.

Pretty autumn weddingsExactly at noon, Oct. 11, 1911, Miss Char-

lotte Bowyer and Ralph A. Vetter, son of FredVetter, were united in marriage by the Rev .J.M. Cor um at the home of ex-Sherif f andMrs. W illiam W. Bowyer in Chestertown.The bride wore a beautiful gown of silk mar-quisette over white satin, trimmed withbaby Irish lace and she carried a shower bou-quet of bride’s r oses. Attendant Miss SarahBowyer, sister of the bride, was gowned inwhite voile. Louis Potter was best man. Af-ter an automobile trip thr ough the Adiron-dacks, the couple will reside in Chestertown.

In other news, James Riley of Hudson Fallsand Miss Jennie Russell, daughter of M. Rus-sell of Lake Geor ge, wer e married Oct. 25,1911 at the Baptist Chur ch in Glens Falls.Miss Marion Cowlbeck was maid of honorand Hugh Russell was best man.

Good fortune comes from afarE. Lyndale Whitby, Esq., who died recent-

ly at his home in Voevil, England, left behind

a fortune of $150,000 which, according to hiswill, is to be divided among his five children.Oliver R. Whitby of Glens Falls, formerly ofWarrensburgh, is the eldest son and R.J.Whitby, also of Glens Falls and a former res-ident of Warrensburgh, is a brother of the de-ceased.

Hotel changes handsElmer S. Dunlap, formerly pr oprietor of

the Dunlap Hotel at North River, which wasdestroyed by fir e on Mar ch 17, 1909, hasleased the W evertown Hotel for five yearswith the privilege of buying it at any timeduring that period. Mr. Dunlap assumed themanagement of the house on Oct. 1, 1911 andis in the pr ocess of having it thor oughlyoverhauled and r efurnished. He has been alandlord for some twenty years and knowshow to please the traveling public.

North Thurman newsMr. Peadore, a young gentleman from the

city who is boarding with Mrs. Helen Potterat The Glen, got lost in the woods on Por-tridge Mountain on Sunday afternoon, butfinally found his way out near Thurman.

T.H. Barber bought a horse, harness andwagon from Charley Baker of Bakers Mills.John Pelletier is r epairing his saw mill. Hehas about 500 markets of pine logs to sawthis winter. Edwar d Barber is helping himwith the r epairs. Thomas Brannon has se-cured employment with his team on the stateroad in Athol. Mrs. W illiam A. Potter is illwith quinsy. (Note…Quinsy is an inflamma-tion of the tonsils.)

News roundaboutThe local milk dealers on Monday morn-

ing, Oct. 2, 191 1 raised their price fr om sixcents to seven cents a quart.

The lower Adirondacks were covered witha light dusting of snow on Friday morning,Sept. 29, 1911, the earliest snow in this sec-tion in many years. On Oct. 8, 1911 they hada gr eat feast of sugar on snow at EdsonKathan’s house in Sodom after six inches felltwo days earlier.

In support of Ralph BentleyTo Adirondack Journal:As a r esident of Horicon, I believe some of the many ac-

complishments supervisor Ralph Bentley has made duringhis reign should be noted.

Under has watch Ralph directed the Planning Board to cre-ate a Compr ehensive Plan for Horicon. Under the Chair-man’s guidance we r eceived a grant to hir e a pr ofessionalPlanner and a local design engineering gr oup. After thr eeyears of effort the Plan was completed and sent to the APA,who approved it.

Now we are slowly melding the aspects of the CP into ourcurrent regulations and considering the r ecommended sitedesign for the centers of our two hamlets, Adirondack andBrant Lake. Ralph has r ecognized that Brant Lake is theTown's most valuable asset and has partner ed with our lo-cal neighborhood associations to control the invasive weed,Eurasion Water Milfoil. Although it took more than a decade,this Summer that goal was met.

Just recently, Ralph sponsor ed a bill thr ough the WarrenCounty Board of Supervisors to make it illegal to transportany invasive species fr om any lake in the County . This hasnow become the law.

Hopefully, Albany’s legislators will adopt the same lawfor all of NYS. Congratulations to Ralph and the County’sBoard of Supervisors for leading the way to have clean lakesthroughout the entire Adirondacks.

LAKE GEORGE — Before next summer,as many as 110 more parking spaces may beconstructed along West Brook Road, a park-like b oulevard w ith se parated, l andscapedone-way lanes that straddle W est Br ook atthe southern end of the lake.

According to a concept endorsed Sept. 27by Warren County Supervisors, the north-bound lane would be closed of f to thr oughtraffic and converted to a municipal parkinglot to add 55 metered parking spaces. A sec-ond option is similar, but calls for wideningthe parking area on the lane by 18 feet intothe north parcel of the West Brook Environ-mental park to double the parking spaces.

Under both proposals, the existing south-bound lan e of W est Br ook Road would beconverted to two-way.

Presently ther e is fr ee parallel parkingalong some str etches of the two one-waylanes.

The unanimous vote Sept. 27 of the coun-ty P ublic Works C ommittee i s s ubject t o avote Oct. 21 by the full county Boar d of Su-pervisors. The pr oposal is also contingentupon a legal r eview of land ownership andeasements.

County supervisors have been seeking toraise revenue to offset maintenance costs ofWest Brook Environmental Park, which is to

include constr ucted wetlands, walkwaysand natural r ecreational features as well asa 2.5-acre festival area operated by the coun-ty government.

They also aim to add parking for those at-tending events on the festival gr ounds, theformer site of the amusement park GaslightVillage.

County Public Works Superintendent JeffTennyson estimated that adding 55 spaceswould cost $30,000 to constr uct, and thekiosk-type meters for the spaces would cost

$50,000. He estimated the spaces would gen-erate $50,000 annually in r evenue — basedon Lake Geor ge Village’s experience withmetered parking — so the construction costswould be recovered in less than two years.

The second option, which would cr eate110 or so parking spaces, would cost$210,000 or so, but would likely double theannual revenue.

Some supervisors suggested the countyproceed with the first option, and developthe extra spaces in the years to

come when money could be budgeted for it.But Chester Supervisor Fr ed Monr oe r e-

sponded that the county should borrow themoney to build the extra spaces soon, andthe parking revenue would more than coverthe loan payments. Waiting to develop park-ing, he said, would mean lost revenue in themeantime.

The county plans for parking apparentlyconflict with the town of Lake George's ob-jective of developing paid parking alongWest Brook Road. They have already passeda resolution to designate parking spaces andinstall meters.

They own 75 per cent of the northboundlane and all of the southbound lane, sothey’d theoretically be receiving the moneyfrom parking on their lands.

The county proposals are contingent on alegal review of whether the town and villagegovernments ar e entitled to the r evenue,rather than the county.

The county supervisors said they were un-willing to spend money on developing paidparking unless the county governmentwould receive the revenue.

Lake Geor ge Supervisor Frank McCoysaid that his first priority was looking out af-ter the interests of his town taxpayers.

He said he is looking forward to cooperat-ing with the county on the parking issue, butnot at the expense of his constituents.

County proposes widening West Brook Road, adding paid parking

West Brook Road at the southern end of Lake G eorge, now a boulevard with two one-way lanes straddlinga stream, may be reconfigured before next summer under a plan endorsed b y Warren County SupervisorsSept. 27. The county leaders voted to make the southbound lane two-way and close off the northern north-bound lane to through traffic and reconstruct it as a parking lot.

LAKE GEORGE — Two national or gani-zations of volunteer firefighters held confer-ences in Lake Geor ge last week, and mem-bers of the gr oups said Lake Geor ge wastheir top choice nationally as a site for suchgatherings.

Convening were members of the nationalState Benefits Summit and the National Vol-unteer Fire Council.

Both met to discuss issues of funding, vol-unteer recruitment and retention, legislativedevelopments, and other issues facing vol-unteer fire service.

Hosting the two conferences from Sept. 24through Oct. 1 wer e the Fir emen’s Associa-tion of the State of New York (FASNY) andthe Lake George Volunteer Fire Department.

The week’s meetings and events were cen-tered at the Fort William Henry Resort.

FASNY President David Jacobowitz saidhe was pleased to host the two conferencesin Lake Geor ge that wer e attended by wellover 120 volunteer firefighter officials.

"By sharing solutions to common con-cerns, we continually push fir e service in apositive direction,” he said.

The national fire council’s board meetingdrew fir e of ficials r epresenting mo re th anhalf of the 49 states of the continental U.S.

The gr oups enjoyed cr uises, sightseeingand a dinner hosted by the Lake George fire-fighters at their fire hall, Jacobowitz said.

“We ar e happy to host meetings in LakeGeorge, because the local fire department isso accommodating,” Jacobowitz said. “Thisis the Lake Tahoe of the eastern U.S.”

One of the reasons Lake George was cho-sen over other sites nationally , Jacobowitzsaid, was that Lake George is family orient-ed — with no gambling.

“Firefighting officials bring their families

and turn these conferences into a vacation,”he said.

Lake Geor ge Volunteer Fir e DepartmentSecretary Barbara McGuirk said local fir e-fighters wer e happy to host a mass dinnerSept. 27 at their fir e station. Brian Engle ofWarrensburg was the head chef for the roastbeef dinner, she said.

Enjoying a hospitality session at FortWilliam Henry Sept. 27, Mark McNees of At-lantic, Iowa said he pr eferred Lake Geor geto Lake Tahoe, a previous convention site.

“Lake George is less commercialized, andit’s far friendlier,” he said. “It’s a tourist des-tination, but it doesn’t seem ‘touristy.’”

A fellow fire official, John Heideman, sec-onded the point. He said he particularly en-joyed the cruise on Lake George narrated byin engaging detail by Lake Geor ge Fire De-partment president Tom McKinney.

“It’s beautiful, very serene here,” he said.

BOLTON — A multi-year project to pro-tect the upstr eam waters of Indian Br ookwas completed recently by the Lake GeorgeAssociation. The project is located at the in-tersection of Federal Hill and Sawmillroads in the town of Bolton.

Over a number of years, a small sectionof Indian Brook started to collect sedimentin an area that was once a swimming hole.Eventually the swimming hole completelyfilled in, and non-wetland vegetation be-came established. W ithout the swimminghole to slow the water ’s speed, the br ookstarted to carry mor e sediment down-stream and into Lake George, contributingto a delta at the mouth of the brook.

In 2009, the LGA cleaned out the swim-ming hole. About 500 cubic yards of mate-rial wer e r emoved. In spring 2010, nativeshrubs were planted along the bank to fil-ter storm r unoff. The former swimminghole is now functioning as a sedimentbasin, allowing sediment that is carriedduring high flow periods to swirl ar oundand drop out of the str eam. The sedimentremains in the basin and does not flowdown to the lake.

This summer, the LGA completed con-struction of a second sediment basin, a lit-tle further upstream from the original.

LGA Pr oject Manager Randy Rath saidthe objective was to create a basin that cap-tures and settles out suspended materialduring storm events, plus to enhance an ex-isting wetland ar ea and use the naturalprocess of wetland plants in removing nu-trients, by planting native vegetation.

Initially the wetlands wer e separatedfrom the flow of the str eam by sand bagsand a straw bale dike. Fortunately the dikewas not opened until after storm Irene, andeven though water overflowed the dikeduring the storm, the basin and wetlandsremained intact, and continue to functionas designed.

A thir d aspect of the pr oject included

roadside drainage impr ovements. A road-side ditch was stabilized and several checkdams wer e put in place to slow thestormwater flow running down the shoul-der of Federal Hill Road. A small basin in-stalled at the end of the ditch captures theflow and allows sediment and debris to fallout. Additional road shoulder work allowsfor some stormwater sheet flow to occurover a vegetated area.

LGA Executive Dir ector W alt Lendercomplimented Kingsley Constr uction,Dave Myers of Greystone Engineering andFiddlehead Cr eek Farm & Native PlantNursery for their role in the project.

He said the next task for the LGA and itspartners is to complete the effort to removethe d elta a t I ndian B rook, a s w ell a s t hesand bars at the mouth of Finkle and Haguebrooks.

WARRENSBURG— Cold temperatur esand wet conditions over the weekend dr ewin fewer crowds than last year to the 32ndannual Warrensburg Garage sale. The 50-de-gree weather didn’t hinder all shoppers fromchecking out the W orld’s Lar gest GarageSale Sept. 30 - Oct. 2.

The traffic on Main Street was still crowd-ed, despite the rain, with people on theirsearch for bargains and checking out the vastselections of merchandise from all over.

The event ran from Friday evening to Sun-day evening with about 250 registered tran-sient vendors set up all over town. Vendorsranged from local businesses setting up onthe street to musical acts, nonpr ofit groupsraising money, and vendors from as far awayas Florida.

Visitors could find anything from an-tiques, discount purses, winter hats,sweaters, knife and kitchen sets, or a sou-venir 32nd annual Warrensburg Garage SaleT-shirt.

Tiffany Underwood, of Clifton Park,made the trip Sunday afternoon with hermother, sister and 4-month-old daughter .She said coming to the sale every year is atradition in her family . They can come to-gether and have any kind of carnival foodthey want, find a good deal on purses andstart their Christmas shopping early.

First-time shoppers Charlotte Hower ,Allyssa Latour and Blue Swan-Otter decid-ed to come out to the W arrensburg GarageSale for the first time to find items to fill theirempty apartment at Paul Smiths.

“We found so much amazing stuff for ournew place, I only wish we'd gotten here ear-

lier b ecause I k now w e c ould h ave f oundmuch more,” Hower said.

Though some vendors said the sales thisyear wer e almost 30 per cent lower than inprevious years, vendors like Barbara Morris,who traveled from New Jersey for the event,said sales for her web-based portable bou-tique, LilinV ictoria.com, of hats, dr esses,purses and other accessories, wer e higherthis year than the last thr ee years at theGarage Sale.

“Even though it rained and even with theeconomy the way it is and people are spend-ing more cautiously, it was cautiously pleas-ant here,” Morris said.

Other vendors like Jason Fonda, owner ofPurse Party in Lake George Village, said hissales had dropped by at least a quarter fromwhat he sold last year . But he said he wassurprised Sunday, as he packed up his twotents full of purses, that his sales had beenas good as they were.

“This is my fifth year coming her e, saleswere down because of the rain but its still acool event to come to and you will still seepeople out her e with or without rain. I’msurprised, I sold mor e than I expected to,”Fonda said.

The cold weather was a benefit for somevendors’ sales, like the Treasure Shop standthat sold hot apple cider, coffee and treats onMain Str eet. Employee Andy Farkass saidthey sold 10 gallons of hot cider on Saturday.The Treasure Shop is an antique shop that isopen year round. Their parking lot turns intoan outdoor shopping center for the GarageSale. Farkass said the event is the highlightof the year for local businesses.

The World’s Largest Garage Sale is the sec-ond biggest attraction to the town of War-rensburg after Americade.

These sponsors proudly support National Breast Cancer Awareness Month:

N A T I O N A L breast cancer awareness

M O N T H Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in the United States, aside from skin cancer. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), an estimated 192,370 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed among women in the United States this year.Today, there are about 2.5 million breast cancer survivors living in the United States.

If you’re worried about developing breast cancer, or if you know someone who has been diagnosed with the disease, one way to deal with your concerns is to get as much information as possible. In this section you’ll find important background information about what breast cancer is and how it develops.

Signs and Symptoms Although widespread use of screening mammograms has increased the number of breast cancers found before they cause any symptoms, some breast cancers are not found by

mammograms, either because the test was not done or because even under ideal conditions mammograms do not find every breast cancer.

The most common sign of breast cancer is a new lump or mass. A mass that is painless, hard, and has irregular edges is more likely to be cancerous, but

breast cancers can be tender, soft, or rounded. For this reason, it is important that any new mass, lump,

or breast change is checked by a health care professional with experience in diagnosing breast

diseases. To schedule your mammogram at The Breast Center at Glens Falls Hospital, please call (518) 926-5333. To schedule your mammogram at The Greenwich Regional Medical Center, please call (518) 926-4945.

About Breast Cancer... Other possible signs of breast cancer include: • swelling of all or part of a breast

(even if no distinct lump is felt) • skin irritation or dimpling • breast or nipple pain • nipple retraction (turning inward) • redness, scaliness, or thickening of the nipple

or breast skin • a nipple discharge other than breast milk

Sometimes a breast cancer can spread to underarm lymph nodes and cause a lump or swelling there, even before the original tumor in the breast tissue is large enough to be felt. Swollen lymph nodes should also be reported to your doctor

The importance of finding breast cancer early Most doctors feel that early detection tests for breast cancer save many thousands of lives each year, and that many more lives could be saved if even more women and their health care providers took advantage of these tests. Following the American Cancer Society’s guidelines for the early detection of breast cancer improves the chances that breast cancer can be diagnosed at an early stage and treated successfully.

Q: What is advanced breast cancer?

A: Breast cancer is considered advanced when it has spread from its original site to distant areas of the body. Physicians will look at a number of factors to determine the stage of breast cancer, including tumor size, lymph node involvement, and whether the cancer has spread to other areas of the body. Once the stage of the disease is determined, there are two different ways advanced breast cancer can be classified: locally advanced or metastatic.

Q: What is locally advanced breast cancer?

A: The term locally advanced breast cancer indicates that the cancer is large (greater than 2 inches) or may have spread to other nearby tissue, such as underarm lymph nodes. Locally advanced breast cancer is considered Stage III, and if it is operable, it is referred to as Stage IIIA.

Q: What is metastatic breast cancer?

A: The term metastatic breast cancer indicates that the cancer has spread from the breast to other parts of the body such as bone, lung, liver, or brain.

Treatments f or Breast Cancer

Q: What are the treatments for breast cancer?

A: The basic treatment choices for breast cancer are surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and hormonal therapy, which may or may not be included in the treatment regimen, depending on hormonal involvement in the growth of the tumor. Local treatments such as breast surgery and radiation therapy are focused on the breast itself to remove or destroy the cancer cells confined to the breast. Systemic treatment such as chemotherapy aims to destroy the cancer cells that may have spread throughout the body.

Newer experimental treatments include biologically targeted therapies which currently, are only available through clinical trials. A patient and his/her physician will choose the treatment that is right for him/her, based on the location and extent of the cancer, patient’s age and preferences, and the risks and benefits of each treatment.

Surgery may be performed to remove the cancerous tumor, and may also be performed to allow for diagnostic testing of tumor t issue.

Radiation therapy uses penetrating beams of high-energy waves or streams of particles to kill and hinder the growth of cancer cells. In metastatic disease, radiation is most commonly used to treat symptoms in breast cancer that has spread to the bone.

Chemotherapy may be used if it is believed the breast cancer will not respond to hormonal treatment. Chemotherapy is the use of drugs that target and destroy rapidly dividing cells, including cancer cells. It is frequently used in metastatic breast cancer and used in locally advanced breast cancer to shrink the tumor and make it operable.

Hormonal therapy can be used to slow the growth, spread, and recurrence of breast cancer. If the cancer is found to be of the type that may be sensitive to estrogen, hormonal treatment may be able to keep estrogen from helping the cancer cells to grow and divide. The presence of estrogen receptors (a message-carrying protein that may stimulate tumor growth) in the cancerous tumor is the best way to predict a woman’s response to hormonal treatment.

Breast Cancer Q & A Provided by National Breast Cancer

Awareness M onth

Q: What is cancer? A: Cancer is a disease that occurs when cells become abnormal and divide without control or order. Each organ in the body is made up of various kinds of cells. Cells normally divide in an orderly way to produce more cells only when they are needed. This process helps keep the body healthy. If cells divide when new cells are not needed, they form too much tissue. This extra tissue, called a tumor, can be benign or malignant.

Benign tumors are not cancer. Eighty percent of all breast tumors are benign. They can usually be removed, and, in most cases, they don’t come back. Most important, the cells in benign tumors do not invade other tissues and do not spread to other parts of the body. Benign breast tumors are not life-threatening.

Malignant tumors are cancer. The cancer cells grow and divide out of control, invading and damaging nearby tissues and organs. Cancer cells can also break away from the original tumor and enter the bloodstream or lymphatic system. This is how breast cancer spreads and forms secondary tumors in other parts of the body. This spread of cancer is called metastasis.

Q: What is breast cancer? A: Breast cancer is cancer that forms in tissues of the breast, usually the ducts (tubes that carry milk to the nipple) and lobules (glands that make milk). It occurs in both men and women, although male breast cancer is rare.

Q: How common is breast cancer in the United States? A: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, aside from skin cancer.

Risk F actors for Breast Cancer

Age, individual and family medical history, reproductive history, genetic alterations, race, economic status, environmental exposures to pollutants, and lifestyle habits are all examples of the factors that can be evaluated. Having one or two of these risk factors doesn’t mean a woman will develop breast cancer. But knowing her personal risk factor profile and understanding what it means will help her and her doctor plan a course of action that may reduce her chances of developing the disease or, at least, to detect it in its earliest, most treatable stages.

The most common risk factors: Sex. The highest risk factor for breast cancer is being female; the disease is about 100 times more common among women. Age. The risk of breast cancer increases as a woman grows older. The risk is especially high for women age 60 and older. Personal History. Women who have had breast cancer and women with a history of breast disease (not cancer, but a condition that may predispose them to cancer) may develop it again. Family History. The risk of developing breast cancer increases for a woman whose mother, sister, daughter, or two or more close relatives have had the disease. The Breast Cancer Genes. S ome individuals, both women and men, may be born with an “alteration” (or change) in one of two genes that are important for regulating breast cell growth. Individuals who inherit an alteration in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene are at an “inherited” higher risk for breast cancer. They also may pass this alteration on to their children. It is very rare. Women with a family history of breast cancer are encouraged to speak to a genetics counselor to determine the pros and cons of genetic testing.

Having an early menarche (first period or menstrual bleeding). Women who begin menstruating before age 12 are at increased risk of developing breast cancer. Having a first pregnancy after age 25 or 35. Although early pregnancies may help lower the chances of getting breast cancer, particularly before the age of 25, these same hormonal changes after age 35 may contribute to the incidence of breast cancer. Having no children. Women who experience continuous menstrual cycles until menopause are at a higher than average r isk. Use of Hormone Replacement Therapy

(HRT). Based on the Women’s Health Initiative Study (2002), women do appear to have an increased risk of breast cancer while they are on HRT and a short time thereafter, compared to those who have never used postmenopausal HRT. Use of Oral Contraceptives (OCs) and Breast Cancer. Current or former use of OCs among women ages 35 to 64 did not significantly increase the risk of breast cancer.

Other risk factors - and lifestyle choices to avoid them

Day-to-day choices involve factors such as poor diet, insufficient physical activity, alcohol use, and smoking. Besides possibly reducing breast cancer risk, lifestyle improvements represent smart steps for a healthier life, since they can help prevent heart disease, diabetes, and many other chronic, life-threatening conditions. Decrease your daily fat intake - especially saturated or hydrogenated fats. Eat leaner meats and limit red meat. Reducing your fat intake helps prevent other health problems such as heart disease and stroke and may reduce your chance of developing breast and colon cancers. Increase fiber in your diet. Fiber is found in whole grains, vegetables, and fruits. This type of diet is beneficial for your heart and can help prevent other cancers such as colon c ancer. Eat fresh fruits and vegetables. In addi tion to their fiber content, fruits and vegetables have antioxidant properties and micronutrients that may help prevent some cancers. Limit alcohol. Evidence suggests that a small increase in risk exists for women who average two or more drinks per day (beer,

wine, and distilled liquor). Stay active. The U.S. Surgeon General has recently reported that you can help prevent many health problems by engaging in a moderate amount of physical activity (such as taking a brisk, 30-minute walk) on most days of the week. Strive to maintain the body weight recommended by a health professional, since excess fat may stimulate estrogen production. Don’t smoke. Although smoking doesn’t cause breast cancer, it can increase the chance of blood clots, heart disease, and other cancers that may spread to the breast.

Early Detection Plan Beginning at age 20: Performing breast self-exams and looking for any signs of change. Age 20 to 39: Scheduling clinical breast exams every three years. By the age of 40: Having a baseline mammogram and annual clinical breast exams. Ages 40 to 49: Having a mammogram every one to two years depending on previous f indings. Ages 50 and older: Having a

mammogram every year.

INLET — A giant mosaic of 1,925 canoesand kayaks filled a corner of Fourth Lake offthe shore of the central Adirondack town ofInlet on Satur day, Sept. 24. The boats viedagainst Pittsbur gh, Pa. for the GuinnessBook of W orld Recor ds title as W orld’sLargest Floating Raft. 

Inlet has almost 400 residents; Pittsburghhas 350,000. While the Guinness W orldRecord title determination will not be madefor months, the Adirondack raft’s boat countwas far beyond the lar ger Pennsylvaniacity’s 1,619 boats.  David beat Goliath hand-ily.

“When t he t iny t own o f I nlet d ecides t owin, we do it in a big way,” said Connie Per-ry, or ganizer of One Squar e Mile of Hope,the raft-building event that hosted over2,200 paddlers in solo and tandem boatsfrom 14 states and Canada.  “We had two

goals: to raise funds for Susan G. Komen forthe Cure’s breast cancer research,” she said,“and to grab back the Guinness W orldRecord we held thr ee years ago.”  In 2008,Inlet won the title with 1,104 boats.

The rules for the Guinness competition arevery detailed and include more than just thenumber of boats.  Adele Burnett, Director ofInlet’s Information Office, said that the boatcount was verified by a simple system thatentailed each paddler receiving a numberedsticker befor e entering the designated raftarea. 

“We immediately knew there were at least1,925 boats in the raft,” Burnett said. “So weknow for certain that we had far more boatsin our raft than Pittsburgh had.”

The aerial photos and video will be r e-viewed by Guinness and an official determi-nation will be made later next spring.

One man represents Warren CountyBy John [email protected]

GLENS FALLS ― The recently established Capital RegionEconomic Development Council hosted a meeting at theGlens Falls Civic Center Sept. 30 and another Oct. 3 inSaratoga Springs to invite public comment.

Lake George’s Frank McCoy said he planned to attend butfell ill. Coughing into the phone, he said the council providesa place to exchange ideas.

Bolton Landing Supervisor Ron Conover said that he’s re-ceived a lot of communication from the council inviting himto attend meetings, but this one came in the middle of budg-et season.

Warrensburg Town Supervisor Kevin Geraghty said thatbesides working on the budget, it was garage sale weekend.He thought it would be best to stay home and pr omote thetown.

He said he r elies on Queensbury Supervisor and W arrenCounty Board of Supervisors Chairman Dan Stec’s positionon the council to keep him informed of going-ons there.

Stec keeps the other local supervisors up-to-date on an in-formal basis when he sees them in county buildings and pro-vides an overview when the board of supervisors meets.

So far, there’s little concrete to report, he said.The discussion right now focuses on high-level subjects

like infrastructure and education. They aren’t mulling overtown- or organization-specific projects.

“The council hasn’t got to that level of detail yet,” saidStec.

That doesn’t mean that public input’s not important, hesaid.

It’s important to participate right now as the council isforming its strategic plan for the r egion. They’re gathering

information on str engths, weaknesses and priorities forbusiness and government in the council region.

Eventually, projects will be funneled through the 10 stateeconomic development councils to compete for funding. Thecouncils will be competing among one another for fundingas well.

The council has subgroups focusing on public outreach orbuilding measur ements for success. Stec's on the subcom-mittee working on how to judge how much the council’s ac-complished.

“At the end of the day, the most important measur ementwill be what we’ve done for jobs,” he said.

The plan is due in November , and the councils wer eformed in July. Getting the r egion’s plan together has beenhectic, said Stec.

“It’s fast and furious. It’s like drinking water from a firehose,” he said.

It’s been a real learning experience for him so far, said Stec.He’s met businesspeople face-to-face that he’s only talked toon the phone, and has learned a lot about their ideas, expe-rience and frustrations.

Everybody is looking at this fr om a team perspective, ona regional basis. The counties cover ed by the council havediverse economies.

Warren County’s str ength is tourism, W ashington Coun-ty's is agriculture and in the Albany area, the technology sec-tor is big. Council members cooperate in cr eating an eco-nomic plan that accommodates all these diverse interests,said Stec.

People can find out mor e about the council, including asurvey and contact information, at CapitalRegionOpenFor-Business.com.

The council covers eight counties, so it might be awhilebefore they host another meeting locally, Stec said.

The Capital Region is defined as Albany, Columbia,Greene, Saratoga, Schenectady , Rensselaer , W arren, andWashington counties.

NORTH CREEK — The Depot Muse-um's first Rail Fair is scheduled Oct. 15and 16.

Vendors and artifacts fr om D&H'shistory will be on hand for visitors toenjoy. The Saratoga-North Creek Rail-road will offer half-price tickets duringthe event.

Museum Director Ray Flanigan saidD&H will send up railr oad artifactsthat haven't been publicly displayed

before, giving visitors a unique oppor-tunity. The railway's engine house,where trains are serviced, will be openfor tours. SNCRR will have demonstra-tions of the turntable, which MuseumDirector Ray Flanigan said is itself anartifact of early rail.

The turntable's been around so longthat it began as a man-power ed ma-chine. It was r etrofitted with a motorfor electric power instead, but all the

machinery still works the way it didbefore electric cables wer e str ung allaround the country.

There’s also an old milk car at the de-pot that Flanigan thinks is the lastD&H milk car in existence. The interi-or is not original, but he's hoping theycan incorporate the r elic into theirtours. There will also be a bus offered,for a fee, to visit Railr oads on Paradein Pottersville.

QUEENSBURY — On Monday , Sept. 26,the New York State DMV announced with noprior notice to the community that, effectiveSept. 28, it was eliminating the curr ent vi-sion test and medical certification r equire-ment for driver ’s license r enewals that ar eprocessed in local DMV offices, by mail andonline.

The original purpose of the vision test andmedical certification was to ensure that driv-

ers met the appropriate vision requirementsin or der to safely operate a motor vehicle.With this new policy , drivers need only topersonally certify that they meet the mini-mum 20/40 vision requirements.

County clerks fr om acr oss the state ar ecalling upon the State DMV to immediatelyreverse their decision to ensure the safety ofdrivers, passengers, and pedestrians.

According to W arren County Clerk Pam

Vogel, whose of fice administers the WarrenCounty Department of Motor Vehicles on be-half of the Commissioner, the eye exam per-formed in the county office is a simple yetimportant step in the r enewal pr ocess andhas many times alerted the customer to a vi-sion problem.

The elimination of the vision test on a li-cense renewal, under the guise of customerservice, is a terribly misguided decision on

the part of the New York State DMV . Theramifications of this action — one that im-pacts both public and personal safety — arebroad and disturbing.

It is anticipated that a formal statement ofopposition will be issued by the New YorkState Association of County Clerks.

Many state legislators, law enfor cement,and eye care professionals are likewise ex-amining this issue.

DMV clerks oppose eliminating vision tests for license renewals

curbside municipal trash pickup, and cut-ting the town r ecreation program from sixweeks to four.

The board, however, called for r estoringthe suggested cuts. Town board members AlVasak, L eon G alusha a nd R ebecca H itch-cock expr essed support for continuing thecurbside collection after hearing that priva-tizing or discontinuing the service wouldmean both a far higher annual cost perhousehold, plus it would likely pr omptmany to illegally dump trash around town.

“You’ll see garbage by the road and tiresfloating down the river,” Vasak said.

Wood praised Town Bookkeeper LesterLosaw for volunteering to take a 3 per centpay cut, r educing his annual earnings to$32,240. The board considered cutting it by2 more percent, but backed off after review-ing how he had straightened out the townbooks after he took office, that he’d workedthrough his vacation this year, and that hiswork was vital in preparing the FEMA dis-aster aid applications.

“He was there when we needed him, andwe still need him — it’s not right to ask himto take more of a cut,” Hitchcock said.

Austerity measures in the budget includecutting the hours at the town constr uctionand demolition landfill to half-days Satur-

day and Sunday, year-round.The board discussed potential cuts to the

local Meals on Wheels and senior bus trans-portation programs, but didn’t ax them.

The $1.43 million tentative budget callsfor about $610,000 to be raised by taxes, andan estimated tax rate of about $3.84 per1,000 of assessed valuation, up fr om about$3.32 per 1,000 in 2011.

In pr esenting the budget, W ood notedthat the town is faced with a 31 percent in-crease in employees’ retirement costs, and a20 percent increase in health care premiums.

Also, the town has suffered an estimated$7 million in damages fr om the MemorialDay weekend flash floods that tor e outbridges and culverts, ripped up r oadways,and turned many of them into raging rivers.Most all the town’s r oads wer e sever elydamaged in the flooding.

Just months later , the town endur ed anadditional $1 million in damages due toTropical Storm Irene.

The town has been lobbying for federaldisaster aid compensation for the Maywashouts, but to date has not r eceived fi-nancial help. A portion of the damages dueto Irene, however, may be compensated.

In the meantime, many of the roadwayshave only had temporary r epairs, due tolack of available funds.

The 2012 budget calls for no incr ease inallocation for highway appropriations.

Public meetingsThe town has a capital planning meeting on W ednesday,

Oct. 12 at 4 p.m. at the Town Hall, and two public hearingson Tuesday, Oct. 11 at 7 p.m.
