LAKE GEORGE — The Village of LakeGeorge will no longer be permittingovernight parking of boats at their publicdocks on Beach Road. The Village Boardunanimously enacted a law at their lastmeeting prohibiting vessels from mooring atthe docks between \midnight and 8 a.m. dai-ly.

The Village operates six public docks onthe southern end of the lake. Each dock is 90feet long and can accommodate up to 36boats, 28 feet and under. Complaints fromboaters wishing to access the docks but find-ing them continuously occupied, particular-ly on weekends and special events, have ledto the new regulations.

“The purpose of our public docks are nodifferent than our metered street parking,”Mayor Blais said. “We wish to allow users

the maximum opportunity to visit our vil-lage, shop, and browse. But some large ves-sels, particularly those with overnight cab-ins that take two or three spaces, have stayedat the docks for two or three days and blockother users. We are not a marina but seek toturnover as many users as possible, increas-ing their availability.”

Trustees and residents at the meeting re-lated to the necessity to adopt such a law, re-marking that unfortunately a few spoil it formany by abusing former privileges.

The Village charges $2 per hour for thedocks for any size boat. Village officials willissue warnings throughout the initial firstdays of the law’s enactment, with full en-forcement after permanent signage is in-stalled.

Smoke Eaters Jamboree coming upThe 48th annual Smoke Eaters Jamboree will be held July

includes a midway, rides and entertainment for children andbetting games for adults.

Headlining the event on Saturday evening is the ever-pop-ular rock band the Refrigerators, known throughout the re-gion for their high-energy performances. The day also fea-tures a barbecue at 5 p.m. As always, an outstanding fire-works display will close the event at 9 p.m.

All money raised from this event goes back into the com-munity for the many functions that the Warrensburg Volun-teer Fire Co. sponsors, including their local scholarships,sponsorship of the baseball and football teams, and under-writing the annual senior citizen Thanksgiving dinner.

Fire company president Kevin Geraghty notes that mostother emergency response organizations solicit donationsfrom each household in their service area, but they do not.

Those who would like to donate an item toward the auc-tion, call 623-9766 and leave a message.

Hopefully the weather will co operate this year and makethis a banner year for the annual fundraiser.

Wearing red shows support for troopsWarren county is a patriotic county, with many retired

service men and women living here. We also have manyfrom the county who have sacrificed their lives for their na-

tion, including Ben Osborn who died in June during combatin Afghanistan.

I recently read an article asking everyone to wear the col-or red on Fridays to express support for our troops, and Ithink it is a good idea. I hear that some unions advocatewearing a certain color on particular days to promote soli-darity.

Wearing red on Fridays will tell your fellow Americansthat you support our troops fighting for our freedom. andthat you are proud to be an American.

WARRENSBURG — David Cooper,Stephanie Brown and Jayne Cupp, childrenof the late John Cooper, together unfurled anAmerican flag, moments before they raisedit on a shiny, new flagpole at American Le-gion Post 446.

About 70 friends and relatives of JohnCooper, veterans, and townspeople gatheredfor the ceremony Sunday to dedicate thenewly-installed flagpole to World War II vet-eran John Cooper, well-known in the regionfor his patriotism and community service.

The crowd outside the Legion hall squint-ed in the hot afternoon sun as they salutedthe flag.

“As long as this flagpole stands and thisLegion Post continues, John will always beremembered,” Legion official Gene Piercesaid.

Brown and Cupp dabbed tears from theireyes.

“John Cooper was a dedicated, patrioticperson, and this Post was his first love be-sides his family,” Post Commander CarsonParker said.

Cooper volunteered hours of his time tomanning coin drops, recruiting new mem-bers and coordinating Post activities includ-ing the Boys State program, Parker said.

Also, for years Cooper organized thetown’s Memorial Day parade on behalf ofthe Legion post, Parker said.

His patriotic volunteer work includedsearching out graves of veterans throughoutthe region and getting them properlymarked and decorated with flags, Legion of-ficials said.

His decades of patriotic volunteer workearned him the status of being chosen as thefirst Grand Marshall in recent history ofWarrensburg’s Memorial Day Parade, DavidCooper said.

His work extended beyond the Legion-re-lated activities, however. For many years,Cooper raised and lowered American flagsat the Warrensburg Town Hall, the Floyd

Bennett Bandstand and the town cemetery.Cooper ’s dedication to the community in-

cluded taking action when the fire compa-ny’s alert siren sounded to unlock the doorsand bays at the firehouse so the firefighterscould save precious seconds in respondingto an emergency call, his children said. Also,Cooper would even make sure the head-lights of the responding firefighters’ vehi-cles were turned off.

Also, he served for about 20 years as theWarrensburg Central School crossing guardat Elm Street and Library Avenue, regardlessof weather conditions. David Cooper notedthat his father was hit by a vehicle twice, butnever was a child hurt at the crosswalk heguarded.

Army veteran Bill Lamy of Warrensburgrecalled how John Cooper was a school busdriver that earned the respect of his youngpassengers.

“John Cooper was a special man, and hehad an impact on the community on manyfronts,” Lamy said.

John Cooper served a tour of duty inWorld War II, primarily in Germany andFrance. After an honorable discharge, he re-turned to northern Warren County to workat Green Mansions in northern Warrensburgas a groundskeeper and maintenance work-er.

David Cooper ended up following his fa-ther ’s footsteps in the military, serving inOperation Desert Shield and Desert Storm inthe mideast.

As the dedication ceremony concluded,Jayne Cupp said she felt honored to be JohnCooper ’s daughter.

“The American Legion was like his family— he was always the first to volunteer,” shesaid. “I’m very proud of what he accom-plished.

The flagpole and its foundation and sur-rounding garden were constructed by localLegionnaires Ray Hensler, Gene Pierce andothers. For Sunday’s ceremony, a photo ofCooper as Memorial Day Grand Marshal anda rife and set of soldier ’s boots were set atits base.

Jeff Tennyson, recently chosen as WarrenCounty’s new Superintendent of PublicWorks and John Cooper ’s great nephew, saidhe also was proud of Cooper ’s communityservice. Tennyson served as an officer in theU.S. Army.

“John was always an inspiration,” he said.

“Considering the recent developments in themideast, the support of veterans organiza-tions is more important than ever,” he said.“We draw inspiration from the past genera-tion of soldiers and what they’ve beenthrough.”

CHESTERTOWN — Alandmark inn in northernWarren County has re-opened under new owner-ship.

Panther Mountain Housein downtown Chestertownis now in full operation,with beverages and sand-wiches available in the tav-ern as of Friday, and roomsbeing rented to area visitorsfor the past three weeks.

The inn had been closedfor several months.

The Panther MountainHouse’s three new co-own-ers, Don and Darlene Butlerand Keith Wilkinson, bought

the inn June 1 from its for-mer owners, Tom and Mar-garet Carroll. The Carrollshad operated the hotel forapproximately 52 years, DonButler said Monday.

Butler and Wilkinson areproprietors of Brant LakeTaxi, which is now situatedin the inn.

Some changes under thenew ownership include re-freshed room decor, newclient amenities includingcomplimentary morningcoffee, and a refurbishedtavern including expanded

patron area and an updatedjukebox.

The result?All available rooms in the

Panther Mountain Housewere rented this past week-end, Butler said.

Upcoming changes in-clude an expanded menu, in-cluding pizza, he said. Also,the aim is to have Trailwaysestablish Panther MountainHouse as bus stop, whichwill likely boost business, hesaid. Already, promotion ofthe inn has been boosted bymarketing over the Internet,

Butler said. “Customer service is a top

priority for us,” he said, not-ing that the new owners seekto cater to the New York Citycrowd, offering a shuttleservice to North Creek forskiing and whitewater raft-ing. The inn will be openyear-round, Butler said.

“We look forward to meet-ing all of our customers’needs — and providingthem with a clean, friendlyand memorable experience,”he said.

paintings for sale — and browsers are welcome, Holmansaid.

“The purpose of this gallery is to get art back in the NorthCountry and to get more activity in town,” Holman said,noting that the Arts Center, a non-profit organization, waslaunched in Warrensburg in 1971, after which it was movedto Glens Falls.

Mary Jane Dower, chairwoman of the Chestertown MainStreet Enhancement Committee, welcomed the news Mon-day of the gallery’s opening. She and several dozen otherlocal residents have been taking action this year in revital-izing downtown Chestertown.

“This is fantastic — just wonderful,” she said. “This is justwhat we need — maybe it will give the revitalization efforta needed boost.”

Barbara Thomas, President of the North Warren Chamberof Commerce also hailed the new enterprise.

“I’m excited — This represents the way Chestertownneeds to go,’ she said. “There are a lot of talented artists inthe area, and it’s a great addition to Main Street.”

Holman said that the Gallery, “Art in Chestertown,” willnot only feature local artwork, but it will likely be staffedwith an artist at work, so visitors can see artwork evolve be-fore their eyes.

Preceding the Grand Opening will be a “Plein-air” Paint-Out event on Saturday and Sunday July 10 and 11, with var-ious artists in Chestertown, rain or shine, at work outdoorsdepicting streetscapes, landscapes and other subjects. Hol-man said if the weather is good, a dozen or more artists arelikely to participate.

The public is invited to observe the artists at work, andoil painters, watercolorists, pastel artists and others are in-vited to participate. Sign-in is at 9 a.m. either day at the newgallery at the Old Harness Shop, on Main St. across from theChurch St. intersection, Holman said. Artists seeking to par-ticipate or those seeking to volunteer are welcome to con-tact Holman for details at: [email protected] or 803-4034.

Works created will go on display for summer at thegallery. For years, the Harness Shop was a store featuringartwork, gifts and fine crafts, but most recently the build-ing was collection center for used goods on behalf of ThePriory retreat.

This “Art in Chestertown” gallery is the first outlet for theNorth Country Arts Center that is dedicated entirely to artdisplay and sales. Currently, the NCAC-sponsored displaysare accommodated in the Glens Falls City Hall gallery, theGlens Falls Post Office, and the lobby of The Glen at High-land Meadows in Queensbury.

Barbara Wilson of the Friends of Chester Library ex-pressed enthusiasm about the gallery venture, noting thatTom Hughes of Lazy River Garden Center in Warrensburgdeserved appreciation for the donation of flowers whichdecorate the front of the new gallery, which will be openthrough Sept. 4.

Holman said the idea of establishing the gallery inChestertown was propelled by a concern that not much washappening downtown as far as public display of art, withthe exception of the Town of Chester Library.

The idea of launching the gallery in downtown Chester-town has been met with enthusiasm from artists around theregion, as well as local officials and residents, Holman said.

“Everyone is excited aboutthis,” he said. “This is a win-win situation that may leadto something more.”

Panther Mountain House reopens with new initiatives

The political upheaval occurring this week in Thur-man is deeply unfortunate, and it’s not just thatthe town’s public image suffers when some resi-

dents delve into mud-slinging, false accusations, back-stabbing and gossip-mongering.

The distressing aspect is the outcome — that three hon-est, upright, dedicated community servants are leavingtheir positions — one ousted by the town board, and twotop officials abruptly resigning.

Thurman Supervisor Red Pitkin confirmed his resigna-tion this week, after a contentious town board meeting lastTuesday that included angry, accusatory discussion overhow a youth recreation director ’s job position was han-dled.

This was after a seven-month series of skirmishes be-tween the board and some townspeople over whether theThurman Emergency Squad, which the town supports,should have prudent financial management, accuratebookkeeping and stop enriching its treasury while burden-

ing taxpayers.The town government has been withholding their annu-

al payment of $33,000 to the squad pending receipt of a fi-nancial statement from the agency detailing their annualexpenses and accumulated surplus.

Squad officials countered that their surplus money isneeded for upcoming additional expenses so the squad canappropriately provide services the townspeople expect.

Also at issue has been the squad’s low response record.During the first three months of 2010, the squad had re-sponded to three emergency calls out of 24 in its serviceterritory — a ratio that improved dramatically soon after itwas made public.

Also, there was the issue of the squad’s ever-changingfinancial figures and a lengthy delay on an audit requestedby the town board. Then, after an audit was receivedmonths late, it seemed incomplete and further informationwas needed on the present expenses and balance.

The last straw, apparently, was that the squad an-nounced they’d hired an attorney to represent them in set-tling the dispute. In response, the town board decided tohave their own legal representation to negotiate their posi-tions.

But such an action means that taxpayer money wouldfund strategic fighting amongst neighbors, rather thancompassion, cooperation and generosity that one wouldexpect in a small rural town.

The discord and stress from these and other incidentsprompted Pitkin’s resignation, he said Monday.

So Lawrence “Red” Pitkin, known for providingthoughtful, objective insight into crucial issues at thecounty level — and saving area taxpayers a lot of money— is stepping down from public service.

For months, Pitkin has served with distinction. He hasbeen a strong advocate of open, honest government inboth in the conduct of town and county business. He’s alsosuccessfully navigated his way through some contentiousissues during his 18 months in office.

Appointed to his post in December 2008, he establisheda policy of accountability. The town needed it. There was asurplus of more than $800,000 that wasn’t accounted for —paid for by taxpayers, contrary to state law. Town officialsdidn’t even know that certain bank accounts even existed.

In town meetings, he’s encouraged free expression ofpublic opinion, whether it’s gripes, rants, accusations,constructive suggestions for change — or even praise.

He and board member James Ligon have spearheaded aneffort to put the finances of the town back on track.

They’ve taken strides to fully computerize and modern-ize town record-keeping, while boosting accountability intown government.

He and Ligon have led an effort to bring broadband totown and thus boost local business enterprises as well asresidents’ connection to the outside world.

They’ve also sought to improve various governmentalprocedures and boost the town infrastructure.

Ligon also quit this week, soon after being accused of abogus conflict of interest because his wife worked on theyouth commission board, a position that has no pay.

Ligon is known for dedicating long hours delving intolocal issues and prudent municipal finance. He’ll bemissed because he was an honest man with integrity —

one who wouldn’t bend thetruth for political gain.

Then there’s his wife,Maria Ligon, who’s workedmany hours tirelessly for nopay working to create newprograms for local youth.After accusations were di-rected at her over her ac-tions in seeking to replacethe youth recreation direc-tor, she was voted off the youth commission Tuesday bythe town board.

This is a shameful development, one that will hurt theyouth of the town.

She had developed new programs for local youth andexpanded others. Her work has meant a record number ofchildren have been attending various events like the Thur-man Children’s Christmas Party, complete with communi-ty tree-trimming, a visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus, gifts,caroling, and crafts and more. Or the town Halloween par-ty, complete with contests and games, plus the Easter par-ty with an egg hunt — featuring about 600 eggs — whichincluded all generations decorating eggs together, as wellas contests.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. She arranged a fullslate of activities in July for the town’s youth — far be-yond merely kickball, but programs on Adirondack Mam-mals, orienteering, the wilderness, and productive garden-ing.

Such programming takes imagination, and the ability torecruit others for volunteer work, and follow-through onarranging all the details. She’s also silently donated a fairsum of her own money into these programs.

Asked Monday about her accomplishments, she deferredthe credit to the volunteers that worked with her.

So we have three talented, dedicated officials leavingpublic service in Thurman. Much like a half-dozen otherswho have in recent years been hounded out of office byback-stabbers.

If several other honest upright people step forward toserve the town, will they put up with being smeared andunjustly vilified?

Does it mean that for town officials to achieve success inpolitics, they need to be two-faced and engage in shifty,underhanded behavior? Do they have to make deals withunscrupulous people? Do they have to cut political dealsto keep the back-stabbers and loudmouths at bay?

Only Thurman residents can make the difference — bymerely following the Golden Rule. We need to show kind-ness and consideration to each other — and put othersfirst in our lives, as has been preached for millenniums.People need to exert more self control over what they say— to be more thoughtful of whether the statements aretrue or not, and how they will effect others’ others encour-aging the positive elements of others’ personalities.

We need more people acting like Jean Reynolds — sheknew how to bring out the best in others — and less likethey’re appearing on the Jerry Springer show.

One Hundred Years Ago - July 1910

Blueberries are said to be plentiful on Cat Mountainnear Riverbank. Nearly everyone in Hague haswhooping cough. Sunday, July 24, 1910, it was 96

degrees in the shade.Everyone is haying. The crop on the old ground and new

seeding is good but on old dry meadows the three last drysummers and the white grubs have destroyed nearly allthe grass roots. Oats are a good crop.

A goodly number of Bakers Mills townspeople went onMonday, July 25, 1910 to make a haying bee to cut the hayfor Etson Hitchcock who is ill with rheumatism. Some ofthe women went along to do the cooking.

Girl dead, man fleesJennie LaFountain, who was shot on the Boulevard in

Glens Falls on the evening of June 12, 1910 by Frank Cilib-erto, an Italian, died Friday evening, July 22, 1910 in theGlens Falls Hospital. The child, she was only 16 years old,was taken to the hospital on the night of the shooting andat first she began to improve, but a week before her death,however, she took a turn for the worse and failed to rally.

Ciliberto disappeared completely and no trace of himhas since been found, although Sheriff Smith, his deputiesand the police force of Glens Falls have worked faithfullyto find a trace of the murderer. The funeral was held Mon-day, July 25, 1910 from St. Alphonsus Church, Glens Falls.

Sheriff Smith doubled the reward from $250 to $500,having secured the consent of the Board of Supervisors,and hundreds of circulars containing Ciliberto’s photo-graph have been circulated.

Gone in the blink of an eyeGeorge H. Taylor of Luzerne, 56, was instantly killed on

Friday morning, July 22, 1910, by a large gear weighingseven tons falling on his body while he was at work in thepulp mill at Hadley. The accident occurred about 10 o’-clock when the repair gang was fixing the shafting in thelarge gear wheels.

William Hughes and Harmon Taylor, the only witnessesto the tragedy, state the blocking under the gear gave awaywhich allowed the big wheel to fall about eight inchesstriking Mr. Taylor, who laid on his back underneath themachinery, on his chest and causing instantaneous death.

It took quite a while to get the body out from under theheavy load of iron.

The deceased was born in Derby, England and came toAmerica when he was but two years old and settled inLuzerne. He had been working at the mill for the pasttwenty years. He is survived by a widow, one son and fivedaughters. The bereavement in his close knit family is hardfor them to bear.

New car turns into giant fireballH.W. Mundy, of Chestertown, had bad luck on Friday,

July 8, 1910 when he was on an automobile trip from Al-bany back to his home. He had purchased a new Peerlesslimousine in Albany and was taking it home where heplanned to open a garage. About a mile this side of Sarato-ga, one of the rear tires blew out. Winding the wheel withrope in order to save the rim, he proceeded on his journeyintending to get a new tire in Glens Falls, but he failed toreach there.

Everything was running along smoothly when he no-ticed a flame shooting out from beneath the car. Fearing anexplosion, he immediately brought the machine to a stopand jumped out, having just enough time to secure his suitcase before the rear of the automobile was enveloped inflames.

The machine now lies a total wreck about a mile and ahalf this side of Wilton. The fire started, it is believed,from a leak in the gasoline pipe next to the carburetor. It isfully covered by insurance to the extent of $1,600.

Ghostly apparitionHon. George R. Stevens, proprietor of the Stevens

House, Lake Placid, a hunter of note, saw three wolves inthe Saranac River country where he had been fishing re-cently. The last wolf killing on record in the Adirondackregion was at Brandeth Lake in 1893.

Three years ago (1907) reliable men reported wolvesseen in the town of Peru, Clinton County.

(Note, although wolves do not technically exist in the Adiron-dacks, they are still occasionally reported even in our time.)

Ground broken, new bank being builtIn North Creek, ground for the new bank building was

broken Monday, July 18, 1910 and actual construction will

begin in a few days. The structure will be of brick withbrown stone trimmings and will be ready for occupancy bythe last of September 1910. C.W. Sanderspree of Fort Ed-ward and A.J. Dubee, of Glens Falls are the contractors.

A.E. Prescott has purchased the building opposite theAdirondack Hotel (now Rite Aid) in Warrensburgh, inwhich the bank has been located since April 1, 1910 andwill later fix it over for a jewelry store.

Wedding bellsGeorge B. Hall, of Indian Lake, and Miss Carrie Smith,

of Warrensburgh, were married at the home of the groom’sbrother, C.J. Hall on River Street, Warrensburgh, by theRev. E.J. Guernsey, pastor of the Methodist EpiscopalChurch. They left town on the trolley car for a weddingtrip down the Hudson River. Mr. Hall is a prominent lum-berman.

This week’s time line• Just 104 years ago, July 11, 1906: Chester Gillette be-

came an Adirondack legend when he drowned his girl-friend, Grace Brown in Big Moose Lake. In 1908 he died inthe electric chair for her murder.

• Just 83 years ago, July 12, 1927: Heavyweight boxingchampion Jack Dempsey was in Hague to act as racestarter for the Lake George swimming marathon.

• Just 109 years ago, July 14, 1901: The Hudson ValleyRailroad extended their trolley line to Lake George andWarrensburgh.

• Just 162 years ago, July 16, 1848: World-famous song-writer, Eben Rexford (“Silver threads among the gold”)was born in Johnsburgh.

• Just 104 years ago, July 16, 1906: Seventy-two cars, car-rying 400 people, passed through Warrensburgh en routeto New Hampshire’s White Mountains during the famousGlidden and Deming Car Race.

• Just three years ago, July 17, 2007: A 24-pound MaineCoon cat by the name of “Buster” moved from the LakeGeorge cat shelter into the home of Jean Hadden on MiltonAvenue. Today he is known as Reggie Hadden and is thelord of the manor. This great shelter deserves are love andsupport for the great work that they do.

Alittle shakin’ goin’ on—oh, yeah! The North Coun-try earthquake that gave us a little wake up call abit before 2 p.m. was felt and heard in our area on

June 23. I thought I was imagining things when one end ofthe house “rumbled” but when I saw the vases on the win-dow sill had fallen and stepping outside saw my full fueltank leaning against the house, and a crack across the smallsidewalk, I knew something was happening. I later learnedthat the fuel tank weighed over a ton and one end had beenshifted so that one side leaned again the outside wall and vi-brated. I can’t end this story for you as the fuel barrel has tobe pumped, and then it has to be reset (the tank). Did any-one else get shook?

One gripe came in with the opinion that after all of theseimpromptu special meetings at the town level, that it cer-tainly looks like some folks do not want to see our commu-nity getting a helping hand in sickness and emergencies?And a question came in asking where their money would goif they sent in a donation to the emergency squad?

Thurman officialssubmit resignations


THURMAN — The twotop officials in local govern-ment have submitted theirresignations after a recentcontentious town boardmeeting, and the politicallandscape in Thurman islikely to shift soon.

Thurman SupervisorLawrence “Red” Pitkin re-signed last week, citing ahealth issue related to stressprompted by political up-heaval, and Deputy Supervi-sor James Ligon submittedhis resignation, effective im-mediately, soon after theJune 29 Thurman Board meeting. Pitkin’s resignation is ef-fective July 31.

Warren County Republican Elections Commissioner MaryBeth Casey said Tuesday that both positions — the supervi-sor post and one town board position — will be on the bal-lot in November ’s general election.

In the meantime, the remaining members — four throughJuly 31 — can choose an interim supervisor and appoint atemporary board member. Through that date, Pitkin is ful-ly empowered to help make that choice. After Aug. 1, thethree remaining board members, Charlie Bills, Al Vasak andLeon Galusha, would have to cast a unanimous vote on thetemporary positions.

Citizens interested in the town board position may pickup and circulate petitions immediately so their names canappear on the September Primary election ballot, but for theSupervisor post, it’s a different matter, she said.

With Pitkin’s resignation effective July 31, the time is pastfor Republican or Democrat petitions to be circulated for thesupervisor post. However, those interested in the post mayseek such support as an Independent candidate. The majorparties can meet and submit names for their endorsed choic-es, however.

Local residents do not have to travel to far-away locations to enjoy some family-friendly activities this summer. With very little effort or expense, families cantake advantage of all the Adirondack region has to offer, without ever leaving

their backyards!Those looking for a quick getaway or something to cure the summer doldrums should

stop by any of the following local businesses — all of which are accessible within anhour ’s drive.

Hudson FallsIf local theater is your penchant, then check out The Hudson River Shakespeare Com-

pany, based in Hudson Falls, which draws talent and audience from Washington, Warren,and Saratoga counties.

The mission of The Hudson River Shakespeare Company is to make available to resi-dents of the area works of classic literature with emphasis on the plays of William Shake-speare. Residents participate as both actors and auditors.

For more information about being involved or for a schedule of upcoming performanc-es, call 747-4418.

Glens FallsLooking for a great rainy

day activity? Why not takethe family to the Hyde Mu-seum at 161 Warren St. inGlens Falls.

The museum offers aworld class collection of ob-jects that span the history ofwestern art from the 4thcentury BC through the 20thcentury. The museum’sfounders, Louis and Char-lotte Hyde, acquired themajority of objects during a50-year period of avid andhighly informed collecting.Many of these works are displayed in their home, known as Hyde House, as well as selectgalleries in the education wing.

The permanent collection consists of approximately 2,800 paintings, sculptures, workson paper, furniture, and decorative arts. When the Hydes began collecting, their focus

was not unlike that of their contemporaries. They acquired Old Master paintings, draw-ings and sculptures by such artists as Botticelli, El Greco, Raphael, Rembrandt, andRubens. In their most important decisions, notable scholars William R. Valentiner and R.Langton Douglas often guided them.

While the majority of the objects comprising the permanent collection were the result ofthe efforts of the Hydes, the collection continues to grow through donations and acquisi-tions.

For more information, directions or hours of operation, call 792-1761 or go to www.hy-decollection.org.

Of course, it’s easy to relax knowing your belongings are safe at home. MahoneyAlarms of Glens Falls offer security systems for all needs. For a free security consultation,call 523-1600 or go on-line at www.mahaoneyalarms.com

PitkinFrom page 7

Both of the county Election Commission-ers, Casey and Democrat Bill Monfort, saidthis simultaneous resignation of two townboard members was unprecedented.

“In my 30 years here, I’ve never seen thishappen,” Montfort said Tuesday.

Thurman Supervisor Red Pitkin con-firmed his resignation Sunday, and said hewouldn’t likely revoke it.

The June 29 town board meeting — thatincluded angry, accusatory discussion overhow a youth recreation director ’s job posi-tion was handled — was apparently the laststraw for Pitkin, who had been consideringstepping down for weeks.

For months, he’d been involved in skir-mishes between the board and the officialsof the Thurman Emergency Squad, whichthe town supports, contending the agencyshould have prudent financial management,accurate bookkeeping and not build up anexcess surplus in their treasury.

The town government has been withhold-

ing their annual payment of $33,000 to thesquad pending receipt of a comprehensive,accurate financial statement.

The squad recently informed the townboard they’d hired an attorney to representthem in settling the dispute. In response, thetown board decided to have their own legalrepresentation to negotiate their positions.Pitkin said spending such money on lawyerswas a waste of taxpayers’ cash.

The discord and stress from these and oth-er incidents prompted Pitkin’s resignation,he said Monday.

“I don’t see taking back my resignation,”he said. “This has to do with the ongoingtown issues — I’m tired of fighting insanebattles over little crazy things.”

Pitkin said he was tired of witnessingfalse accusations and back-stabbing in localpolitics, and he didn’t want to join the fray.

“Too many people like to instigate thingsand speak in half-truths,” he said.

Maintaining his integrity, he said, wasmost important at this point.

“I’m a better man than a politician,” hesaid.

BOLTON LANDING – Artist, profes-sor, and philosopher Peter Schwarzburgwas considered by many to be one of thegreatest intellects of the 20th centurywho excelled in philosophy, science,teaching, and not least of all, landscapepainting. The late Schwarzburg createdabout 100 paintings of Lake George(1945-2002) at the estate of MarcellaSembrich.

Neil A. Chassman, a professor andlongtime friend of the artist will deliverthe lecture “The Intersection of the Artof Peter Schwarzburg and the Estate ofMarcella Sembrich” at the museum, 4800Lake Shore Drive, on Wednesday, July14. The cost is $5.

Chassman’s talk will include a visualjourney through the works Schwarzburgpainted from scenic Sembrich Point, fac-ing the Sagamore Hotel, which he sayscombine distinctly American and Euro-pean traditions with a striking freshnessand a powerful, sensitive individuality.Schwarzburg was a New York City resi-dent but had spent summers in BoltonLanding since childhood.

Chassman grew up in New York Cityand has traveled, taught, and lecturedthroughout the U.S. and abroad. He waschairman, Department of Art History,Southern Methodist University; chair-man, Department of Art and Art Histo-ry, Western Illinois University; and Vis-iting Senior Professor, Brisbane College,Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.

Chassman met the artist back in 1959when he was a student and Schwarzburgwas teaching at The New School in Man-

hattan. “He was teaching phenomology and

existentialism in the fields of psycholo-gy and philosophy,” recalled Chassman.“Peter was so brilliant that in order to behis student you needed to be able to han-dle his intelligence, which was not easybecause he thought in leaps andbounds.”

Though his first love was painting,Chassman said he never taught it be-cause “he wanted to keep his creative ex-pression separate from his teaching.”Still, Schwarzburg went on to teachsome of the greats in the art world, in-cluding the sculptor Joel Shapiro, TadDay, Simon Gaon, Ronald Denota,Richard Rash and Myron Heise.

“He mentored New York City’s mostfamous artists,” said Chassman, whoteaches Chinese language and culture atthe Woodstock Day School. “They allbowed down to him. Artists, philoso-phers, and musicians considered himthe grand master.”

Chassman said that thoughSchwarzburg and Marcella Sembrichnever met, he derived great inspirationfrom painting at her estate and from hermusic.

“He knew as much about classical mu-sic as anyone I knew in my life. Peter wasa true renaissance man. His paintingswere one of the three strongest elementsof his character: his art, intellect, andhumanity. Peter was very generous withhis time and with people when theyneeded it.”

So profound was Schwarzburg’s in-

fluence on his student, and later, friend,Chassman wrote the book, “Pure Ge-nius: The Art and Mind of PeterSchwarzburg,” in 2005. Following hislecture, Chassman will sign copies of thebook, which will be for sale at the mu-seum. A reception will be held at thenewly-opened Silverwood Gallery in theHuddle, just south of Bolton Landing,where several of Mr. Schwarzburg'sLake George paintings will be on dis-play.

The Marcella Sembrich Memorial As-sociation, Inc., a not-for-profit organiza-tion founded in 1940, dedicates its exis-tence and purpose to honor the life andcareer of internationally renowned so-prano, Marcella Sembrich. The MSMAmaintains Sembrich’s former teachingstudio as a museum displaying Sem-brich’s personal effects that reflect onher daily life of teaching and her career.The MSMA also carries on the fine tra-dition of music through a summer con-cert series presenting renowned interna-tional musicians in concert at the studio.

Media Sponsor for the museum’s 2010season is The Lake George Mirror. Pro-gramming is sponsored in part by War-ren County, the Town of Bolton, BoltonRecreation Commission, and Stewart’sHoliday Match.

The demo day will be from 10am-5pm and include sales on water - sports equipment, accessories, and apparel. Riders can demo gear by going for a ride on the Inverted Wakeboard and Waterski School’s Supra ski boat. There will be a “Wakeboarding Unleashed” gaming competition on X-Box, prizes, raffles, and food.

Schroon Lake Marina, formerly Maypine Marine, is celebrating their fifth year of business after being purchased by Richard Stolen, owner of the nearby Loon Lake Marina in Chestertown, NY. Marina General Manager Craig Kennedy owns and oper - ates the Inverted Wakeboard and Waterski School, also on Loon Lake in Chestertown. His love of wakeboarding drove him to start his own school to spread his excitement for watersports. Craig and Rich hope to give another boost to the watersports that they love so much by selling high quality HO skis, Liquid Force wakeboards, and Supra ski boats. Owner Rich Stolen said “it would be great to have everyone come and see all the new equipment and really learn how these sports are evolving.” This led to the idea of hosting a demo day along with the introduction of a new watersports store called Hydrotherapy to showcase wakeboards, skis, tubes, accessories, and apparel. Marina Manager Craig Kennedy stated: “I really want to see more kids out here as excited about these sports as I am. I’m hoping that by having the Inverted School boat here we can generate some more interest, teach everybody something new, show them our love for inboard boats, and of course have a great time.”

Schroon Lake Marina is a full service marina that offers not only watersports equipment but also a full service repair shop, marine accessories, boat sales, dock sales, boat rentals, seasonal dock space, and gas right on the water.

DissolutionFrom page 1

comprised of Town andVillage residents, chairedby Village Trustee JohnRoot.

A final report, contain-ing three possible options,was presented and accept-ed by the Village Board inJuly 2009. The report con-tained a summary of pres-ent Village services, assets,debts and possible disposi-tion of them if the publicindeed voted to dissolvethe municipality.

The initial two publichearings, that were lightlyattended, raised many con-cerns and additional ques-tions from Village andTown residents. All threeoptions presented in thestudy forecast a reductionin Village taxes of between19 percent and 30 percentwhile town taxes outsidethe village were estimatedto increase from 9 percentto 40 percent.

While local officialshave said they couldn’tsupport a plan that fore-cast a tax increase, thesticking point is how todistribute assets — about$12 million — and villagedebt, estimated last year at$3 million. Fairweatherrecommended the forma-tion of districts to directlyassign costs for services tothose who receive them —like street lighting — andto assign the debt only tothe village residents whoincurred it.

Much of the impact ofdissolution upon the twoseparate communitieswould depend upon aplan, agreed upon by Townand Village officials, priorto a vote. Trustee John Rootand Trustee Raymond Per-ry, both who served on thesteering committee, voiceopinions at a recent meet-ing that agreements be-tween the Town and Vil-lage boards is unlikely dueto the complexity of the is-sues and the relative sizeof the Village’s assets, rev-enues and debt. Without aguaranteed plan to offerVillage residents, the Vil-lage board of trustees ap-peared split recently onwhether the matter shouldbe placed on the ballot atthe Village’s March 2011general election.

Only village residentsare allowed to vote on thematter according to Statelaw, and the Village wouldcease to exist one and halfyears following an affirma-tive vote. Two previousstudies conducted in 1972and 1988 resulted in novote.

Village Mayor RobertBlais said this week thatthe July 27 hearing will beheld to gauge the interestof the village residents inholding such a vote and itis l ikely to answer someadditional questions andconcerns.

“We have a very well-known and successful cor-poration,” the mayor saidreferring to the village mu-nicipality. “Our stockhold-ers are our taxpayers andresidents that have becomeused to certain servicesand a quality of life — Weneed to find out how theyfeel about the future andhow they wish their Boardof Trustees to proceed fromhere.”

VotingFrom page 1

behind curtains, voters will be hand-ed ballots, and they‘ll be blackeningin oval circles that are adjacent totheir chosen candidates’ names.

They will be making such a selec-tion while sitting at a table with a U-shaped piece of cardboard provid-ing some degree of privacy.

Voters will then take their ballot toa central voting machine, push abutton and feed the ballot into a slot,when it will either be accepted or re-jected, based on the readability ofthe markings, and the legitimacy ofthe choices.

“This will be easier than anyoneanticipated,” county RepublicanElection Commissioner Mary BethCasey said Monday as she preparedto train about two dozen election in-spectors at the county MunicipalCenter on operation of the new ma-chines.

The new devices, however, are noteasy on the taxpayers’ wallets. Al-though purchase of the 70 ballotscanners and 22 computerized ballotmarking devices for the visually im-paired cost the county about$900,000 including the software, 95percent of the sum was refunded bythe federal government.

But because of the machines, thecounty Board of elections’ annualbudget has now increased about$150,000 from now on. The hiked ex-penses are primarily because theballots must be custom-printed foreach election, and the federally-re-quired number to be on hand for anelection means as many as 126,000ballots must be prepared and pur-chased by the county at a cost of 57cents each, or a total of $71,820 perelection.

The additional expenses of tem-perature-controlled storage, trans-portation, testing and securing ofthe machines and conducting newly

required audits means that far morewill always be spent on voting withthe computerized scanners thanwith the prior lever-operated tech-nology.

Any voter within Warren Co. is in-vited to attend any of the voter out-reach sessions which include ma-chine demonstrations. The ballotmarking device voting system, aswell as the scanner machines arealso available for demonstrationpurposes at the Board of Election’soffice every day during businesshours.

“This is the first change in votingsystems in about 100 years — Wewant our public to make this transi-tion as smoothly as possible and wefeel that education is the bestmethod to accomplish this goal,”Casey said.

Voter Outreach Sessions and ma-chine demonstrations:

• Saturday July 10, from 11:30a.m.-2 p.m. at the Lake LuzerneTown Hall, 539 Lake Ave., LakeLuzerne.

• Saturday July 17, from 11:30a.m-2 p.m. at the Lake George TownHall, Upper Level, at 20 Old PostRoad., Lake George.

InBrief

Nobody Does It Better! Adirondack Journal

The woods were a bit stiller,the waters a bit calmer andthe wildlife just a bit qui-

eter across the North Country thispast weekend, as news spread thatthe Press Republican’s long-time,outdoor writer, Dennis Aprill, haddied unexpectedly Saturday, July 3from a form of pancreatic cancer.

Anglers and guides, paddlersand hikers, birders, hunters andfellow outdoor writers were sad-dened with the news. Aprill firstbegan his popular, award winning"Outdoor Perspective" column inthe Sunday issue of the Press Repub-lican Sept. 9, 1990. He continuedto regularly produce a full page ofoutdoor news for the Sunday issue,for more than 20 years, withoutmissing a single week.

His columns offered a little bit ofsomething for all audiences.Whether it was big game hunting,bird watching, wild flowers or fly-fishing, Aprill managed to collect something to entertainand enlighten his readers every Sunday for more than1,000 weeks in a row. He never missed a beat.

It is a feat that is difficult to fathom, especially consider-ing the fact that most of the outdoor writers I know are in-credible procrastinators. Most writers prefer to be in thefield or on the water, rather than sitting around writingabout the same. However, Aprill, with seeming ease andrecognized excellence, managed to do both. At the sametime, he also worked full-time as a professor of journalismat Plattsburgh State and managed to raise a fine family.

Always an excellent source of information about theoutdoors, Aprill worked hard to bring together many ofthe region’s finest fishing authorities to author chapters ofhis book, Good Fishing in the Adirondacks. He updated andreleased a second edition of the book this past spring. Hehad also authored several hiking guidebooks includingPaths Less Traveled, Short Treks in the Adirondacks and Beyond

and had co-authored a field guide,Mammals of the Adirondacks.

Although Aprill’s "Outdoor Per-spective" column in the Sunday,Press Republican was read far andwide, he also contributed regularlyto numerous national and regionalmagazines including Vermont Out-doors, Adirondack Life, Sports Afieldand the NYS Conservationist.

As a writer, Aprill's work washighly regarded and he regularlyearned awards from the NYS Out-door Writers Association, the NewEngland Outdoor Writers Associa-tion and the Outdoor Writers Asso-ciation of America. He was hon-ored as well by the state Depart-ment of Environmental Conserva-tion Earth Day Media Partnership,and in 1999, the Woodmen of theWorld named him their Conserva-tionist of the Year.

In 2009, Aprill was inducted intothe NYS Outdoorsman Hall of

Fame, joining the ranks of such local notables as BobBrown of Saranac Lake, the late Nellie Staves of TupperLake, Bill Wellman of Plattsburgh and the late, Francis Bet-ters of Wilmington, who also was a regular contributor toAprill’s outdoor page.

In recent months, Aprill’s page also featured storieswritten by a number of fine writers including ElizabethLee of Westport and Dan Ladd from Fort Ann. Aprill alsocontinued to feature regular weekly columns written bythe late, great Francis Betters. Betters’ writings, about fly-fishing the Ausable River, are as timely today as when hefirst wrote them. The fly hatches he studied and the flypatterns he created are still “spot on accurate.”

Aprill presented outdoor news in a manner that allowedit to be easily digested by all users. He also provided arole model for families by regularly involving his childrenin his outdoor adventures. He was both a sportsman’s ad-vocate and an environmentalist, a feat accomplished by

walking a line that is farmore difficult to travelwhen walking and talkingwithin the Blueline.

He is survived by hiswife, Kathy; son, Colin anddaughter, Karalyn. Servicesfor Dennis Aprill will beheld on Thursday, July 8 atthe Brown Funeral Home inPlattsburgh. Calling hourswill begin at 6 pm followedby a Celebratory Obser-vance in Dennis' memorybeginning at 7:30 pm.

Church is celebrating 200th anniversary

Caldwell Presbyterian Church of Lake George has a longand remarkable history — and this summer, the congrega-tion is observing the 200th anniversary of its founding.

Sunday July 11, Caldwell parishioners will be holding acommunity celebration, with a worship service at 10 a.m. fol-lowed by a reception at 11:15 a.m. The church is located at71 Montcalm St.

Caldwell Presbyterian was founded in 1810 by JamesCaldwell. He was an entrepreneur, regional grocer, mer-chant, land investor and founding father of the village ofCaldwell — the forerunner of the present municipality ofLake George.

Caldwell laid the cornerstone and oversaw the construc-tion of the first church building, located on Canada St. over-looking Artillery Cove, where in 1757 French Army GeneralLouis-Joseph de Montcalm landed his troops for the siege ofFort William Henry.

At the dedication ceremony in 1810, Caldwell proclaimed,“This shall be called a Presbyterian Church but it shall beopen to all evangelical denominations.”

Caldwell’s open attitude extended to the church’s minis-terial staff, considering that its first Presbyterian preacher toserve the church regularly was the Rev. Anthony Paul, a Mo-hican Indian.

This inclusive attitude exists to this day, church membershave said.

Caldwell was fairly isolated in the early 1800s, and therewere only about 500 inhabitants by 1820. The first recordedchurch meeting was held in 1814, although the church wasnot officially sanctioned by the regional Presbytery, based inTroy.

The Caldwell church’s Sunday school, however, was op-erated with zeal by Laura Baldwn, who in 1830 was instru-mental in not only inspiring a religious revival, but shejoined other parishioners in aligning with the temperancemovement — their spiritual fervor led to reorganization ofthe church and formal recognition by the regional Pres-bytery.

The present building on Montcalm St. was constructed in1855 and 1856 on land donated by heirs of James Caldwell.Then in 1893, an addition — which now houses the “CoffeeRoom” — was built. In 1957, the middle room, offices andbathrooms were added to the original building. The follow-ing year, the Christian Education wing was added, and in1978, the preschool addition was built.

Through its 200 years, Caldwell Church has been influen-tial in local education and culture.

The first library in Lake George was organized as part ofthe Caldwell church, and it remained such a center of pub-lic information until the present library was completed.

Also, the area’s first Kindergarten was held at CaldwellPresbyterian, until the program was taken over by the LakeGeorge Board of Education. In more recent years, thechurch’s preschool program has continued to assist young-sters in their readiness for formal education.

Although the negative economic effects of the Civil Warstressed the church’s finances, and an 1866 tornado damagedthe church steeple, the reunification of two factions of thePresbyterian Church in 1869 prompted financial gifts fromsummer visitors to relieve the hardship. Due to the new fi-nancial footing, the church was able to hire its first full-timepastor, Rev. James Lamb, in 1870.

As Caldwell Presbyterian’s centennial approached, an ad-dition was constructed, the sanctuary was refurbished, andthe free public library was established. Church membershipgrew from an average of about 30 to 100 or so.

This strength in membership and finances allowed thechurch to support local missions at French Mountain andBay Road.

To this day, the church has maintained its spiritual dedi-cation, inclusiveness and welcoming spirit that has deeproots in its founding 200 years ago.
