Photo by Jon Alexander By Thom Randall [email protected] WARRENSBURG — The upcom- ing Primary elections in Warren County are lively this year, as a rela- tively large number of positions in town governments are contended. No less than 13 Republican pri- maries are to be held Sept. 13 in towns across northern Warren County alone. Competition is most heated in Lake George, where five Republi- cans will be vying to be their party’s representative for two Town Board seats. (See accompanying article for details.) Lake George’s supervisor race is uncontested in the Primary. But in November, Councilman Frank McCoy will face former Town Supervisor Dennis L. Dickinson (D). In Warrensburg, there’s a con- tended race for supervisor between two seasoned candidates and a three way race between three successful entrepreneurs for two board seats (See article inside for details.) In Thurman, four G.O.P candi- dates are seeking two open board seats — one of Incumbent Charles Bills, and the other of Ruth Keller, who retired from the post this sum- mer. Former Warrensburg Central School Athletic Director Albert Vasak was appointed just weeks to Keller’s seat for the remainder of 2009. Vasak (R) and Bills (R) are chal- lenged by former Town Justice can- didate Glenda Duell (R,I) and Re- becca DeSourdy (R). For the Supervisor post, there’s no primary, but incumbent Red Pitkin (Ic., I) will be challenged by Randy Oppitz (D,C) and assessor Thomas Birdsall (R) in November. In Stony Creek, vying for Town Supervisor will be incumbent Frank Thomas (R,Ic), challenged by Tara Tremaine Fisher (R,C).

For the town board, incum- bents Warren Braman and Bill Liebl (R) are challenged by Harry Paul Gill (R,I). In the town of Bolton, Republican Ronald Conover (R,Ic.), a retired city planner, will be seeking the Supervi- sor post, as well as Alexander “Zandy” Gabriels (R,I), who held the office from 2002 through 2007. For two town board seats, incumbent Owen James Maranville (R, Ic) is challenged by Scott P. Anderson (R) and Gregory R. Smith (R). In No- vember, Ed Corcoran (D) joins the fray.

Things that were accomplished Things that were accomplished during my ten years as supervisor: during my ten years as supervisor: I received $6.7 million in grant monies in my 10 years as supervisor. State mandated capped landfill - $3 million - no cost to tax payers. $4.7 million state of the art sewer system - $2.5 million state grants, plus $1 million from Ron Stafford. $750,000 new waterline up main street - no cost to tax payers. 2 new wells plus 500,000 gallon storage tank with grant monies left over from sewer grants. Water meters installed in Town Water District from grant monies.

Now Mr. Geraghty wants to spend $170,000 to upgrade water meters so we can meter unsafe drinking water. A memo from NYS Dept. of Health says Swan Street well is contaminating the well water I put in. If elected I will spend $30,000 of the $170,000 for upgrading meters for a new well and shut Swan Street well down. A savings of $140,000. Mr. Geraghty’s budget from 2005-2009 has increased spending by $725,000, an increase of spending of 28% in 3 short years. But the amount to be raised by taxes is 39% in 3 years. I need the support of voters in Warrensburg on September 15, from noon till nine p.m., to stop this fiscal irresponsible spending, or I predict taxes will climb even higher. I fully intend to lower taxes in the town of Warrensburg as I did from 1988-1997. How? As you would watch your budget at home; by restraining your spending.

Yours truly for a more affordable town supervisor, Maynard D. Baker

WARRENSBURG —There’s a robust competitionfor the top office in town thisyear, with a choice betweentwo experienced politiciansseeking the supervisor post.

Former town supervisorand funeral home ownerMaynard D. Baker (R,I) ischallenging incumbent su-pervisor Kevin Geraghty(R,C), long-time officer ofthe local fire company, for afour-year term. For Warrens-burg town board, formertown planning board mem-ber and chair Bryan Rounds(R) is challenging incum-bent trustees John Alexan-der (R ), a funeral homeowner, and Joseph Barlow,R,C,I) an insurance execu-tive.

At the center of the super-visor race are allegations byBaker that Geraghty hasbeen extravagant with thetaxpayers’ money — butGeraghty disputes thecharge.

Baker said that from 2005to 2009, Geraghty increasedthe budget by $750,000, ahike of 28 percent. Geraghtycounters that he wasn’t re-sponsible for the first year ’sspending plan — it was hispredecessor — and the taxrate has increased only 3.8percent per year during histenure, a figure Baker saysdoesn’t tell the whole story.But Geraghty added thatmuch of the increases weredue to mandated programsor expenses over which thelocal board doesn’t wield

control. He said this year ’stax rate of $3.40 per $1,000 ofassessed valuation is thetown’s lowest since 1995.But Baker said this figureneeds to be evaluated inlight of the taxpayers recenthikes in assessments due torevaluation.

Geraghty notes his fiscalcost-cutting has been provenas county budget officer —under his tenure this year,dozens of positions havebeen eliminated, and spend-ing on programs and bu-reaucracy has been cut bymillions of dollars. Also, henoted he has experience asan operations executive witha Fortune 500 company. Bak-er notes he has launched twosuccessful funeral home en-terprises.

Baker has spoken outagainst installing and acti-vating water meters, sayingit’s an expensive proposi-tion with upgrade costs pro-jected at $170,000. Geraghtyhas countered that meteredwater is the responsible, fairway to charge, so peoplecan’t abuse the system underflat charges.

Baker has campaignedthat one of the town’s wells,the Swan St. well, needs togo offline as it is producingwater that doesn’t meet statestandards.

Rather than spend$170,000 on meters, he saidthat spending $35,000 for anew well would be a betterinvestment.

He’s also criticized Ger-aghty and the town boardfor spending another$140,000 on a street sweeper.He’s suggested the boardshould have paid $10,000 forrepairs rather than the larg-er sum. Geraghty countersthat the old street sweeperwas getting costly to repair— and with its vital partsnear failure, it was ap-proaching the end of its use-ful life.

Both Baker and Geraghtysay they’ve been prudentwith the taxpayers’ money.Geraghty’s been supervisorfor four years, and Baker

served in the post from 1988through 1997. Both said theywere successful at obtaininggrant money. Baker notes heclosed the town landfill for$3 million at no cost to thetaxpayer, obtained $3.5 mil-lion in grants for a $4.5 mil-lion sewer system for townresidents, and was in powerwhen a $500,000 water tankwas constructed and$750,000 in water lines werelaid, both at little or no costto taxpayers. Geraghty not-ed his administration hasbrought a professionalgrants writer on staff who isboth obtaining and seekingmore and more grants, forparks and recreation, basicinfrastructure, and othertown amenities, as themonths go by.

Both are on the ticket withsupplementary party labels,so they’ll undoubtedly beback wrangling in Novem-ber.

Board candidateslook to future

In the town board race, in-cumbents John Alexanderand Joe Barlow cite the ac-complishments of the pastfour years, which includedeveloping two town parks,bringing a manufacturingoperation to the town Indus-trial Park, and overseingcomputerization of manytown functions and records.

Challenger Bryan Rounds,owner-operator of BryanRounds Paving & Excavat-ing, echoes Baker ’s objectiveof cutting spending.“There’s an abundance ofextravagance,” he said.

Alexander and Barlowcounter that they’ve beenfrugal with taxpayer moneywhile vastly improving thelives of residents — plus thatBaker and Rounds’ allies,Austin Markey and DeanAckley, have voted in favorof the expenditures.

Rounds argues that as-sessments are too high.Alexander counters that thetown board has no controlover assessments, equaliza-

tion rates, and school taxbills.

Rounds, however, saidthat town employeesshouldn’t be cruisingaround town in new townvehicles. Older models, withtighter control over usewould be more frugal, hesaid. Also, the town seemsmanagement top-heavy, hesaid, with department headsearning about twice the av-erage local private-sectorwage.

All three cite their suc-cessful business experience.Rounds notes also that hehas personal experience ininfrastructure construction,and that such expertisemight be useful as the towntakes on such pending up-grades.

Barlow cites his involve-ment in a roster of commu-nity groups. Alexandernotes his service on theschool board and the Hud-son Headwaters Board.

Alexander notes his workin boosting public safetythrough his work to bringthe sheriff ’s substation backto town. Rounds said his in-dependent viewpoint wouldprovide balance on theboard. Both Rounds andAlexander said that theirknowledge of municipalplanning will be helpful inthe future. Rounds servedfor 9 years on the town plan-ning board. Alexander saidthat with Luther Forest de-veloping and Gore Moun-tain evolving, Warrensburghas potential benefits ifplanning is strategic.

“We’re in the middle of alot of success stories, and weneed to capitalize,” he said,suggesting that the hamletexpand northward. “Weneed to allow businesses togrow up here without APArestrictions,” he said.

Rounds said that his talentas a natural-born negotiatorwould be useful on the townboard, when the two factionschafe.

“I can provide the voice ofreason between opposingviewpoints,” he said.

When I teachcoupon classes,one of the audi-

ence's favorite lessons arewhat I call the "best-kept se-crets" of couponing. These arethe secrets that help pushyour savings potential to themaximum! Today I'll sharewith you one of the best andmost exciting ways to get gro-ceries and other products forfree. (And isn't that what weall want? Who doesn't lovefree stuff?)

Secret #1: Couponsfor "One Free Item"

You may be surprised howmany coupons for free prod-ucts exist! You can regularlyfind coupons for free items innewspaper inserts, on the In-ternet or even in the storesyou regularly shop. These aresome of the easiest and mostfun coupons to use! Recently,our newspaper inserts hadcoupons for one free loaf of abrand-name bread, a free sin-gle-serving beverage and afree air freshener. There'snothing better than gettingsomething for free with littleor no effort.

Or is there? You may besurprised to learn that run-ning right to the store with acoupon for a free item isn'tnecessarily the best way touse these types of coupons.When I get one of thesecoupons I file it away andthen I watch the sales. If my

store features this item in a"Buy One, Get One Free"(BOGO) sale, that's when I re-deem the coupon for the freeitem... because I will then gettwo of that item for free in-stead of one!

Why does this work? I'llgive you an example. I have acoupon for a free bag offrozen vegetables. The couponstates that it has a value of upto $1.99, which is what thestore will receive when theyredeem the coupon. That'salso the normal price of thevegetables. But when the storeputs the vegetables on saleBOGO, they're selling twobags for $1.99. If I walk in andbuy two bags and pay cash,I'll pay $1.99 and get two,right? The same thing hap-pens when I use my couponfor one free bag of vegetables.The coupon covers the $1.99cost of the first bag, and thesecond bag is free.

This is all part of playingthe coupon game. Getting oneitem for free is good, but get-ting two items for free is evenbetter! Now, if my coupongets close to the expirationdate, of course I will redeem itand get my free product. Butit often pays to play the wait-ing game, as the BOGO saleswill play out in your favormore often than not.

Over the course of the pastfew months, I kept track of thecoupons for free items that Iaccumulated: 38 in all. I heldall of them and watched close-ly, matching them to BOGOsales over that time period.During that time frame, 31 ofthe items went on sale BOGO.By playing the waiting game,I was able to get 62 free itemswith those 31 coupons! Andwith the remaining sevencoupons, of course, I still gotthose seven items for free, too.

This truly is the best way to

use coupons for one free item.You're getting two... for theprice of none! Next week I'llshare another best-keptcoupon secret with you.

Dear Friends: My name is Scott Andersen, and I am a candidate for a seat on the Bolton Town

Board. As the manager of F.R. Smith and Sons Marina, a former member of the Bolton Town

Board and of the town’s Planning Board, I feel I can bring a helpful perspective and useful expertise to our town government.

Bolton Landing is a great community, but we all need to work to maintain the life style we all enjoy. If elected to the Town Board, I pledge to work hard, not only to maintain the quality of life in our community, but to continue to help move Bolton forward in a posi - tive direction.

Among the issues now confronting the Town of Bolton are proposed projects that require careful scrutiny.

Bolton needs to monitor its expenditures closely. We are very fortunate to have a very low tax rate, but because of the weakened economy, revenues are down. While serving on the Town Board, I supported the Bolton Conservation Club rehabilitation project at a time when the costs of the project were estimated to be $300,000. Now it is estimated that it could cost as much as $500,000. If elected, I would work to ensure that this project, and other pro - jects like the rehabilitation of the Town Pier, are viable without additional tax increases and are cost-effective.

The administration of Bolton’s zoning department also needs attention. As a town board member, I supported the hiring of a Zoning Enforcement Officer to

assist with the growing amount of duties associated with the Zoning Office. Unfortunately, this has not worked as well as it should have. After listening to complaints from local resi - dents, it appears that this office has become ineffective in serving the public. Since other efforts seem to have failed, I strongly recommend an external, objective review by a professional firm to ensure that this office serves the public as diligently and as equitably as possible.

I am proud of what Bolton’s town government accomplished when I was a member of the Board.

I strongly supported the formation of the Bolton Landing Development Corporation, which purchased Norowal Marina. That acquisition has been a tremendous asset for the community, allowing boaters, campers, anglers, visitors and residents access to the lake into perpetuity. No taxpayer dollars were used, and the project continues to pay property taxes to the town and school. I also supported the construction of a new highway garage

as well as a salt shed to prevent road salt from contaminating nearby streams. Additionally, I supported the restoration of foot patrols by our local police officers in the hamlet area. Maintaining a local police department is vital, especially in the off-season to help safeguard vacant properties.

In addition to serving on the Town Board and the Planning Board, I was a member of the Bolton Volunteer Fire Department and rescue squad for fourteen years.

My wife and I are life-long residents of Bolton, and we look forward to continuing to serve the town that has given us so much.

I appreciate your support, and look forward to speaking with you. Sincerely,

Scott P. Andersen

State’s STAR reformulation, equalizationrates are boosting tax bills

To the editor:I’d like to help clear up some misunderstandings re-

garding 2009 property assessments, current tax bills, STARexemption rates and STAR rebates that have been circulat-ing:

•First off, the state has determined that the STAR ex-emption rates for 2009 for the Town of Warrensburg are$32,670 for the Basic STAR (reduced $4,040 from last year)and $61,860 for the Enhanced/Senior STAR (reduced$7,640 from last year). This is something the state deter-mines; local assessors have no control over this. Becauseof this cut, and although a person’s assessment may haveremained the same as last year, their taxes will most likelybe higher than last year if they are STAR-qualified.

•There are no STAR property rebates this year. Assuch, property owners will not be receiving rebate checksfrom the state as in the past few years.

•As this year ’s equalization rate” for Warrensburg is.94, this causes the tax bills to reflect a higher “market val-ue.” This is not a true market value, rather it is a “theoreti-cal market value” that the state formulates. [This value isarrived at by taking the assessed value and dividing it by.94. As an example, a property with an assessed value of$100,000 would show a “theoretical market value” of$106,383. Likewise, this is something the state mandates;local assessors has no control over this.

• Property owners need to know is that their assessmentdetermines their real estate taxes, not the “theoretical mar-ket value” that’s on their tax bill. As the majority of prop-erties assessed values have not changed from 2008 to 2009,the 2009 tax bill might show a higher amount even if thehomeowner receives a STAR exemption, due to the STARrate cuts for 2009. Our office has received many calls fromproperty owners who don’t understand why their taxeshave gone up even though their assessment has remainedthe same as last year, and this is why.

I hope this clarifies any confusion related to tax billsthat Warrensburg property owners recently received.

Gregory KlinglerAssessor of Real Property

Town of Warrensburg

Geraghty offers accountability,honesty and fiscal responsibility

To the editor:On September 15, Warrensburg residents have a choice for

Warrensburg Town Supervisor.Considering Kevin Geraghty’s experience, personal attrib-

utes, and expertise, he is the one well-qualified to move War-rensburg forward.

Geraghty is a life-long town resident, and he as served thecommunity as a volunteer fireman for 39 years. He worked fora Fortune 500 company for 33 years, working his way up to amanagement position. He has considerable experience as atown councilman and now as town supervisor.

He is in the best position to get the town through the reces-sion. He understands the financial position of the Town, coun-ty and state.

Regardless of what some will say, the town tax rate is the low-est since 1995. He and the town board keep looking for grantsto make the town better. They have been successful in obtain-ing grants for planning, water meters and a new playground atthe town recreation field. A sidewalk was constructed to thehigh school and sidewalks have been replaced around the Ele-mentary School along with interactive speed-detecting signswhich help protect your children who may walk or bike toschool.

Geraghty and the board have stopped the former practice ofselective zoning enforcement, brought jobs to the town indus-trial park, and completed two parks along the Schroon Riverincluding the Fred Flynn veterans park and the riverfront parkhosting the weekly farmer’s market which brings many peoplethe community. The Warren County Sheriff’s substation wasrelocated to Warrensburg. The town has obtained engineeredplans for expansion of their sewer system and is now seekinggrant money to fund it.

The Town is moving forward in this digital era. We now haveupgraded accounting and office management systems and haveestablished a website where the public can obtain forms, andboard minutes and other information.

When you vote for Geraghty, you will continue to get hon-esty, accountability and fiscal responsibility in the office of su-pervisor. You also get an open-door policy at the Town Hall.

Geraghty’s record speaks for itself. He was chosen by War-ren County supervisors to serve as county budget officer, andhe has cut government spending substantially.

Geraghty puts the Town of Warrensburg and its taxpayersfirst. But most importantly, I trust Kevin Geraghty.

Thank youDon BagwellWarrensburg

•100 Years Ago – September, 1909•

Historic Collins House purchased

W.H. Kelley of Glens Falls has purchased theCollins House, the big hotel at Stony Creek,and took possession Aug. 30, 1909. He is an ex-

perienced hotel man and will remodel and refit the CollinsHouse throughout. The establishment can accommodate 30guests and it incorporates a livery. Hunting parties will becatered to and fed good meals this fall. (Note – LandlordCollins leased the Collins House for several years andbought it in January, 1904. In July that year the TanneryPond dam gave way and the rushing water knocked outthe supports of the building and slid it into the RoaringBranch stream, “the front of the house being crushed likean eggshell.” Local residents who were sharpshooters sawlamps burning in the building and shot the lights out toprevent fire. The water took away furniture, dishes andhotel paraphernalia and deposited the debris for milesalong the shore of the swollen creek.

Collins rebuilt and opened his “new hotel” in January,1905. Years later this old hotel, at Hadley and RoaringBranch Roads, became the Stony Creek Inn. In 1916, ownerJohn H. Arehart built an addition and enlarged the inn. Itis exists today, and includes a restaurant operation.

The perfect wife“When the bread is perfectly baked, the coffee strong

and hot, the steak juicy and fragrant, the hash well builtand appetizing and the batter-cakes light and smoking asthe melting butter is absorbed, the spirit of the Lord de-scends upon the household like a dove and the caverns ofthe lucky man’s soul echo with ‘Glory Hallelujah!’ The girlwho can cook is a divinity. She is the delight of a man’ssoul.”

Happy newlywedsWilliam D. Combs and Miss Alice Baker, both of Thur-

man, were quietly married on the evening of July 28, 1909at the residence of Sanford Truesdale, by the Rev. WilliamBills.

Hollis Russell and Miss Mina D. Morehouse, both ofWarrensburgh, were married the evening of Aug. 30, 1909at the Baptist parsonage by the Rev. W.S. Warren.

Earl R. Vetter, one of the most popular young men ofChestertown, took unto himself a bride in the person ofMiss Julia Schell, of Little Falls.

Leslie Tripp, of Warrensburgh and Miss Estella Bennett,of Garnet, were married Sept. 4, 1909 at the MethodistEpiscopal parsonage, Johnsburgh by the Rev. D.E.Williams.

Henry Shaw and Miss Lulu Stevens, both of North River,were married Tuesday, Sept. 7, 1909, at North Creek by theRev. J.B. Randall.

Stony Creek newsFrancis J. Dean, 84, an esteemed and life-long citizen of

Stony Creek, died the morning of Aug. 28, 1909. He is sur-vived by a widow and six children, two sons, Jason andJoel Dean and four daughters. The funeral was held fromthe Wesleyan Methodist Church of which he was a memberfor over 50 years. Internment was in the Dean Cemetery.

(Note – On Aug. 7, 1898, John Smith wrote in a letter tohis father, “Jason L.

Warrensburgh’s schools in bygone daysA question this week from local resident Mildred John-

son read prompted research into where early schools werelocated in the center of Warrensburgh.

Around 1800, the only building in uptown Warrens-burgh was a schoolhouse which stood near where theMethodist Church is today. There was no church edifice inthose days and the Methodist Society held their services inthis school house. In 1810 the society built a MethodistEpiscopal Church on Judge Kitchel Bishop’s land acrossthe main street from today’s church and the town cemeterywas in the church yard.

The late Town Historian Mabel Tucker recorded that thisschool was on a lot owned by Lemuel Woodward who af-terward conducted a business in a stone store there. In1811 through 1812 the school, with 60 to 70 students, wastaught by Samuel Lake of Chestertown, followed bylawyer Samuel Stevens of Albany. In 1840 the church wasmoved across the street and about 1895 the cemetery wasmoved to its present location.

Because of travel limitations, there were later severalsmall schools in different parts of town. My late husband’sfather, Ed Hadden, born in 1872, attended school in abuilding still standing today on the south section of RiverSt.

Later on, shares of stock were sold in the prestigiousWarrensburgh Academy and this school, which producedmany outstanding men of the day, was built in 1854 of na-tive stone and wood where the Hudson Headwaters med-ical offices stand today. A small school built in 1832 oncestood there. The total cost was $4,500 and 75 to 100 stu-dents a year attended. The first principal was the Rev.Robert C. Clapp of Chestertown.

The Warrensburgh Union Free School and Academy waslater organized March 6, 1888 and in June, 1899 work start-ed on a new building on a different part the same lot,made of native stone from nearby Hackensack Mountain.The old building had closed its doors in 1898 and was de-molished.

This new school opened in March, 1900. The street, nowStewart Farrar, was called School Street in those days.Many people living in Warrensburg today went to schoolthere. The school building was abandoned in 1943 andmuch later a small, brick post office was built on the lot.The medical offices are in that same building today.

Stop the madness in town spendingTo the editor:Think about the old saying “Liars do figure, but figures

don’t lie.”The only way Supervisor Geraghty was able to manipu-

late the town’s budget was to do a re-evaluation of proper-ties in 2007. At that time, properties went up approximate-ly 35 percent.

Since Geraghty took office, taxable assessed values haveincreased 50 percent. That makes a $150,000 house nowworth $225,000. That’s ridiculous in today’s real estate mar-ket and today’s economy. Sure, anyone can show a tax de-crease when you raise spending 25 percent in four years andat the same time raise property values 50 percent.

Any taxpayer in Warrensburg can go in and get a copy ofthe budget for years ending 2005 and 2009. During that time,the Geraghty administration increased spending over 25percent, which is over $725,000. The amount to be raised bytaxes during the same time increased 39 percent. If that con-tinues over the next four years, we will have increased ap-propriations from $2.6 million to well over $4.5 million.

C’mon Mr. Geraghty, noteveryone can afford those in-creases. Hope that all thepeople that are losing theirjobs, the one-parent familiestrying to make ends meetand the senior citizens thatreceived no increase comeout and vote Sept. 15 to stopthis madness and vote for af-fordable government and nomore excess spending and nomore over-value assess-ments.

Please vote Sept. 15 forMaynard D. Baker for Super-visor and Bryan Rounds forTown Councilman.

LAKE GEORGE — Competition is brewing in Lake George forthe upcoming Primary, where five Republicans will be vying tobe their party’s representative for two town board seats. In thisrace, seats of incumbents Vinnie Crocitto and Frank McCoy, whois vacating his seat to run for town supervisor, are up for the tak-ing.

Crocitto (R,Ic), councilman since 2002, is challenged by localbusinessman John Carr (R), former Town Board member GeorgeMcGowan (R,C), Fran Heinrich (R,Ic), and Janie Green (R,D). InNovember, they’ll be joined in the race by Democrat Marisa Mu-ratori, a former Lake George Village trustee. Without a supple-mentary party endorsement, this Primary is Carr’s first and onlyrace for this year.

Lake George’s supervisor race is uncontested in the Primary.But in November, Councilman Frank McCoy (R) will face formerTown Supervisor Dennis L. Dickinson (D).

John Carr’s candidacy is based on creative solutions to long-standing issues. George McGowan’s is based on his belief insmaller government and separation of private and public power.Vinnie Crocitto, owner-operator of Lake George Super 8 Moteland the local laundromat, is running on his record and accessi-bility and commitment to the community — as are the other can-didates. He listed among his accomplishments working to rede-velop Gaslight village into a viable venue for festivals, renting thefacility out to organizations to defray costs.

“We want to keep it affordable for taxpayers while boostingtourism,” he said. Also, he cites his longstanding work with thetown youth commission.

John Carr said if elected, he’d get to work defending propertyowners’ rights in the face of pending Lake George Park Commis-

sion stream corridor regulations. McGowan’s been fighting against excessive government reg-

ulations for years. McGowan also said the existing town boardshould insist that all hiring be conducted with the explicit ap-proval by the full town board. He said for years, town employ-ees have been hired by the supervisor’s sole decision and knowl-edge. Also, he said, the town budget should be written in de-scriptive English, rather than code numbers, which the publiccan’t interpret.

“All efforts should be made toward containing the town budg-et, seeking not to invent ways to spend public money, but seek-ing to reduce government,” McGowan said.

Candidates also said it was wise to thoroughly research the pos-sible consolidation of town and village governments. McGowansaid that the town should scrutinize the associated financial trans-actions. McGowan’s been critical of village government in theface of the recent sewer system break, charging that proper up-grades hadn’t been accomplished in recent years. Also, he said thevillage ought to charge dumping fees for private haulers, and usethe money for system maintenance.

Carr cites his extensive business experience as a potential assetin the town board’s decision-making and budgeting process. Thenew ideas he’s already concocted include creating a bike trail net-work that attracts green and athletically oriented tourists, and es-tablishing a restaurant district in town that has a distinctive,charming streetscape and ambiance. Carr is owner of AdirondackPub & Brewery, Common Man’s Bistro, and North Country HouseCrafters — all of which he actively runs — and they are all grow-ing to date.

Janie Green said she’d work to improve infrastructure, boosttourism and scrutinize the effects of potential consolidation.

Crocitto, Green and Heinrich cite their experience in land useissues. Crocitto has served as chairman of the town zoning board

of appeals, and Green has served on the same panel for five years,with a prior stint on the planning board. Heinrich has worked forthe town for 17 years as planning and zoning coordinator. She cit-ed her years of work for the town and county as helping her de-vise innovative ways of helping the middle class and those onmodest incomes. Such ideas include intermittent half-price saleson landfill punch cards, amnesty for minor town code and land-use infractions, and holding local hazardous waste collectiondays.

Carr notes his regular attendance at town and county boardmeetings, which has given him considerable insight into local andregional issues.

“I look toward innovation, and I’ve got no axe to grind,” hesaid.

Green and Heinrich also cite their experience in business, Greenwith restaurants and accommodations, Heinrich helping run afuel company with her parents.

BOLTON — A black bear wandered Friday into the back-yard of Bolton residents Russell and Marina Skea.

The Skeas were alerted to the bear by their cat “Moll Flan-ders” at about 2 p.m., when the feline leapt to a window, Ma-rina Skea reported.

Responding to see what was outside, the Skeas saw whatthey described as an adult black bear about 25 feet from theback of their home off Coolidge Hill Rd.

The bear had already taken down a suet holder and con-sumed the contents, Marina Skea said.

Surprisingly, the wild creature had not disturbed severalother suet, seed and hummingbird feeders, she said. Thebear then easily dug a hole in the ground, about two feetwide and the same depth, and there appeared to be a nest ofbees or wasps in the ground, Marina Skea said.

These angry insects, she said, began swarming around thebear's head, but the bear was undaunted and casuallystrolled away, until it found and decided to inspect one ofthe Skeas’ bluebird houses.

The bear then walked into the woods, concluding a visitthat lasted about 10 minutes, she said.

This incident was the second time the Skeas have seen ablack bear on our property — the first time was about sixyears ago, in the fall and occurring past midnight. In thisearlier encounter, the Skeas were awakened by a bear thathad taken down a bird-seed feeder. It feasted on the contentsand then proceeded into the woods, they said.

GrantFrom page 1

Corinth, which is to administrate the grant,authorities said. Corinth Town SupervisorRichard Lucia confirmed Friday that themoney was granted by the state Dept. ofTransportation, but the grant was awaitinga signature of the state Attorney General.

For well over a decade, county leaders andarea economic development officials haveenvisioned regular train service connectingNorth Creek with Saratoga Springs, the Cap-ital Region and New York City. This connec-tion would allow Manhattan skiers to leavetheir vehicles at home and enjoy a scenicride all the way to North Creek, they've said.

Also, it was envisioned that a series of sta-tions would be constructed at towns alongthe route. When federal grants promiseddidn’t materialize, these stations weren’tbuilt, and several platforms were construct-ed instead at considerable cost — a situation

that angered taxpayers and eroded supportthis year among county supervisors for thetourist railway.

However, this $1 million grant is likely tomake the connection with Saratoga Springsand New York City a reality, Lucia said, if itindeed materializes.

“The game plan is all there,” Lucia said.Cliff Welz and Jerry Riegel of the Upper

Hudson River Railroad said that the moneywould be spent on installing a crossing sig-nal at Anton Mountain Road in Corinth, andreplacing ties and improving the rail bedalong the 16 miles of track from Corinth tothe connection with the CP Rail line nearSaratoga Springs. Upper Hudson River Rail-road operates trains daily from North Creekto Riverside.

The $1 million would bankroll upgradingthe track to Class 2, which would allow traintravel at 30 m.p.h. The portions of the trackwhich are passable south of Corinth are nowjust Class 1 with a speed limit of 15 m.p.h.,Welz said.

Lucia said his town has an engineeringfirm on board, ready to draft upgrade plansas soon as the $1 million check is signed.

Upper Hudson River Railroad is planninga series of excursions this fall from NorthCreek south through Warren County. Twotrips are scheduled — one each on Sept. 30and Oct. 7 — to go from North Creek toThousand Acres Ranch in Stony Creek, andanother run is slated to go from North Creekto the Hadley station platform on Oct. 17.

Riegel and Welz said they'd need a mini-mum of 45 reservations to make these runs.

County supervisors expressed frustrationThursday over the fact these trips were con-ditional, and that UHRR had cut their dailyruns in half.

The county is ready to issue a request forproposals for operation of the train service,the role that UHRR now serves, effective be-

ginning in 2010 when their 12-year contractwith UHRR expires.

Supervisors have said they are frustratedwith the declining ridership of the railway,which they blame on lack of promotion byUHRR. This, in part, has prompted them toopen up bidding on the service to other en-terprises.

But Riegel contends he had to cut the num-ber of trips this year to cut his financial loss-es; and that to build ridership, the railwayneeds real stations, not platforms, and vi-brant communities at each stop-off. He saidthat Warren County hasn't lived up to theiragreement to provide the rail stations.

Supervisors blame the federal govern-ment for backing away from its long-stand-ing commitments to fund the stations.

SummerFrom page 1

George all summer long — this has been aphenomenal weekend.”

John Carr, owner of Canada Street enter-prises Adirondack Pub & Brewery and Com-mon Man’s Bistro, said sales were robust,and the brewery’s sales for Labor Day week-end were about 10 percent over a compara-ble weekend last year, a season-long growthrate the tavern has sustained for years.

“It was very busy this weekend — oursales are up.” he said. ”A lot of people werefeeling the need to get out and enjoy sum-mertime after all that rain.”

Carr said the sunny weather this pastweek had prompted the increase of tourismback to traditional levels.

“There were a lot of day-trippers visitingthat were grabbing for that last bit of sum-mer,” he said. “Tourists should know it’sbeautiful here in October, too.”

Boaters were back on the waters of LakeGeorge enjoying the experience, marinamanagers said.

Scott Andersen, general manager of F.R.Smith & Sons Marina, said although therewas some rough water for portions of theweekend, Saturday and Sunday were good,and that business was strong.

“We had a great weekend, and we’re very

happy to have nice weather,” he said. “Julywas a very difficult month with the rain, andAugust was a welcome relief from all that.”Andersen said he was looking forward toautumn.

“Hopefully for all businesses in town,weather remains good and we have a pros-perous fall,” he said.

Bill Manion, owner of the Molly Malone’sIrish Gifts said that sales were strong overthe weekend, which made up partially forthe depressed sales in July due to the soggyweather that set records for rainfall.

“July was a bummer,” he said. “If wecould have the whole summer like this pastweekend, this summer would have beenwonderful.”

Saturday started out with vacant streets,which worried him until he realized it wasonly 7 a.m, he said.

“I cheered up when people really startedrolling in,” he said. “At times, traffic wasbacked up from Beach Rd. up the hill pastFort William Henry — and I thought, ‘Thisis a good sign.‘“

Manion said he was looking forward to astrong fall tourist season, in contrast to theworries persisting elsewhere in the nationover the economy.

“All my friends I’ve talked to said theyhad business this weekend like gang-busters,” he said.

FireFrom page 1

support has been just overwhelming.”The Quintal family’s phones didn’t stop ringing over the

weekend, and hundreds of people have come to the storesite to express their sorrow over the fire, she said.

“The traffic the day after the fire was unbelievable,” shesaid. “People were coming and going Saturday in a steadyflow as if we were open, and we’ve been getting emails frompeople all over the U.S.,”

Quintal added that various enterprises and individualshad volunteered to help in the recovery and rebuilding ef-fort. Echo Lake Camp offered their coolers to accept someof the processed meat products that were salvaged, she said.

The Quintals were busy Monday outfitting a newly builtpool house at their home next to the burned-out business asnew temporary headquarters for the enterprise.

Employees were assured they would remain employed byOscar ’s in an effort to rebuild the enterprise, Jerry Quintalsaid Monday. Their paychecks would be underwritten bybusiness continuation insurance that was in force, Quintalsaid.

Quintal said Monday that employees would be busy or-dering new specialized meat processing and other equip-ment, retrieving and restoring business records, and con-tacting hundreds of customers — all to get the enterpriseback on its feet as soon as possible. Key employees will alsobe helping to plan the layout and construction of the newbuilding, he said.

Quintal estimated that Oscar ’s could be back in businessin three months or so, but it was too early to tell.

Quintal said that he had offers from other businesses tohost a smokehouse operation temporarily, but it was im-practical to do so.

The fire happened at a very busy time of year, as Oscar ’sships its specialty smoked meats and cheeses daily tofarmer ’s markets, apple orchards and other venues thathave a lot of activity in autumn.

Oscar ’s will also be temporarily missing its business ofsupplying gourmet meats to various restaurants, not onlyin the region, but from afar. One restaurant enterprise, Bub-by’s in New York City, orders 400 to 500 pounds of baconper week, Quintal said.

Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce President LynnSmith wished the Quintal’s a speedy recovery from the dev-astating fire. She said Oscar ’s Smoke House not onlybrought fame and jobs to Warrensburg, but that the Quin-tals were generous contributors to charity and were activein community service.

“This fire represents a great loss to the business commu-nity,” she said.

Warrensburg Fire Chief Justin Hull voiced thanks Sundayto the various area businesses that donated food and re-freshments to the 100-plus firefighters while they battledthe blaze. Those contributing included Gino’s Pizzeria,Luck-E Star Cafe employees, the Methodist Church, andLuna Pizza of Chestertown.

Quintal said his son Joq, a co-manager of the enterprise,has advocated “going green” when the business is rebuilt,using solar and geo-thermal power if possible.

Kathy Quintal said that much of the existing charm of theretail store’s accouterments were either salvaged, or wouldbe recreated. Saved from the blaze, she said, was the pigmailbox and the pig statue on which customers posed theirchildren for photographs, she said. The signs and a muralthat date back to the 1940s were salvaged or will be restored,she said.

“It’s truly amazing when a tragedy like this occurs, every-one steps up to the plate, offering their help and services inany way they can,” she said.

WARRENSBURG — Oscar's Smoke House,one of the most famous enterprises in theNorth Country, suffered a devastating fireFriday evening.

The business, an Adirondack landmark forgenerations of residents and visitors alike, isconsidered a total loss.

The heat of the blaze was so intense it melt-ed stainless steel doors and processingequipment and split the heavy steel and brickwalls of the smokers on site.

The fire occurred at about 5:45 p.m. whilethe business was open and employees werebusy helping customers, owner Jerry Quintalsaid Monday.

Within minutes, the fire raged out of con-trol, he said, and the employees were evacu-ated from the store in uptown Warrensburgon Raymond Lane.

“I was in store’s retail area waiting on cus-tomers when I smelled smoke, and sent myson-in-law Gabe Egloff to check it out,”Quintal said, adding that Egloff discoveredthat a portion of the building next to an ex-terior woodpile was on fire. “Our alarmswent off, three of our employees ran to theback of the building with fire extinguishers,the fire company arrived, and police told uswe have to evacuate, while we were scram-bling to get our business records out.”

As of Monday, the cause of the fire was still

under investigation.Fire Chief Justin Hull said that the cause of

the fire was the subject of a continuing in-vestigation.

“We’re not sure if it was an errant ember,or what,” he said.

The blaze was difficult to fight because itwent up into the eaves of the roof and quick-ly spread to adjoining areas of the sprawlingbuilding complex, he said.

A lack of water supply to town hydrantsalso hampered the firefighting effort, Hullsaid. Warrensburg firefighters established a5-inch hose line to bring water down ThirdAve. from Hudson to Main St. to the firescene, he said.

Raymond Lane neighbor Joe Barlow called911 to report the fire.

He said he had just sat down to dinner, andhis wife Ellen glanced out the window andshe remarked there was a lot more smokecoming from Oscar ’s than was normal in themeat-smoking process.

“I then looked at the smoke, saw flamescoming out the roof and I grabbed the phone,called 911 and then went out to take photo-graphs which I later gave to an investigator,”Joe Barlow said.

Jerry’s wife Kathy Quintal, said she washome at the time the blaze broke out.

“I went to open up some windows andthere it was, smoke billowing out from underroof,” she said. “We’ve had minor greasefires in the smokehouse before, but I couldtell, with the amount of smoke, this was not

the usual grease fire.”Within seconds, flames were shooting out

of the roof and a thick plume of black smokewere then soon visible a considerable dis-tance.

After the buildings were evacuated, fire-fighter Scott Combs went inside the businessand brought out a painting of the enterprise’sfounder, Oscar Quintal — a painting that fortwo generations had hung over the cash reg-ister. Combs had also grabbed the checkbookon his way out, Jerry Quintal said.

About a half-hour later, the main structurehad collapsed on itself, and several hundredpeople had already gathered to watch the fireand mourn the devastation of the enterprise.

Considerably more than 100 firefightersfrom Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co. and 12neighboring fire agencies -- as far away asBay Ridge -- were on site soon afterwards tofight the blaze. They were able to keep thefire from damaging other nearby houses.

Involved in the blaze were firefightersfrom Warrensburg, Lake George, Chester-town, Bolton, Thurman, Horicon, Riversideand Queensbury.

Witness Dawn White saw the smoke billowskyward from her home on Lake Ave.

"It's really awful," she said. "Oscar's is likea staple in this community," she said. "I hateto see it like this."

Operated by the Quintal family for gener-ations, Oscar ’s Smoke House has been a busi-ness that for decades has attracted visitors toWarrensburg.

The enterprise employs 14 local people in-cluding Quintal family members, and itships gourmet smoked meats across the na-tion and internationally. It incorporated botha wholesale meat processing and packing op-eration with a retail enterprise that was adestination for people from both nearby andhundreds of miles away.

Oscar ’s Smoke House was established in1943 by Oscar and Edith Quintal in the Mu-sic Hall block on Main Street, which burneddown in 1945. The Quintals relocated to itspresent location in 1945.

The enterprise has been operated fordecades by Jerry Quintal, Oscar and Edith'sson. In recent years, Jerry's sons Joq and Joelhave joined their father in operating the busi-ness.

WARRENSBURG — With 39 seconds left onthe clock and a tied game Saturday, Warrens-burg High School Quarterback Brendan Fryekept the football on a option play and cut backand forth four times over 48 yards throughFort Edward territory for a touchdown thatturned a tied game into a 24-16 victory.

The jersey he was wearing as he ran into theright corner of the end zone belonged toFreshman teammate Nolan Maltbie, becausehis standard No. 12 had been torn to shredsearlier by aggressive Fort Edward tacklers.

The jersey left no doubt that Frye enduredsome punishment in this season-opener forthe Burghers, as he ran 107 yards in 17 carries.

Warrensburg Coach Mike Leonbruno saidMonday that Frye earned his playmaker sta-tus earlier, by his gritty performance in pre-season practices.

“Brendan was throwing well, making goodreads, and he got the job,” Leonbruno said.

In Saturday’s game, Fort Edward initiallyput forth a sustained offensive attack that putBurgher fans on edge.

On the Forts’ first possession of the game,they drove for 17 plays — but the Burghers

halted them at the 13 yard line.The ball changes hands several times, and

the first quarter ended 0-0 — but the Forts hadrun 24 plays and Warrensburg, only three, As-sistant Coach Rex Reynolds said.

“At this point, we thought ‘Uh-Oh!”Reynolds said.

Two Fort Edward fumbles in the secondquarter led to a Brendan Frye 10-yard pass toSophomore Hunter Werner, wide open in theend zone, for his first Varsity touchdown. Fryeran it in for the conversion.

Fort Edward then continued their offensiveshow, with four pass completions in 6 plays,including a 32-yarder.

Their airplay then hit a headwind whenBurgher Mike Curtis intercepted and returnedthe ball for a 13-yard gain.

In the third quarter, the Burghers scored atouchdown in a seven-play drive which in-cluded two runs by Mike Perrone totalling 22yards. The Burghers capped it off with Fryehitting David Boodman for a 15-yard touch-down. Boodman ran with the ball for two ex-tra points, and the Burghers led 16-0.

On the next kickoff, the Forts’ special teamfired back with a 65-yard return for a touch-down, which they converted.

In the fourth quarter, Warrensburg enjoyed

a sustained 12-play drive, ending up with afourth-down crunch with 6 yards to go on the16-yard line. Frye threw the ball into the end-zone, and Fort Edward intercepted and ran itback 55 yards. Within three plays, they’dscored a touchdown, and the score was tiedwith 60 seconds on the clock.

“We were sure the game would go intoovertime,” Reynolds said.

Then on the ensuing kickoff, David Bood-man returned the ball 37 yards, to the Forts’48-yard line, setting up the final zig-zag,game-winning run by Frye .

Leonbruno said the Burgher veer play, adive option, worked well. Mike Perrone ledthe rushing attack with 109 yards on 22 car-ries.

While Leonbruno praised Frye and back Ja-son Power and other individuals, he said theteam as a whole fell short of expectations. Theteam needs to be more aggressive, he said.

“We’ve started out the season looking likewe don’t want to play ball — it’s scary — butwe ended up getting the win.”

After the game, Leonbruno told thepumped-up players that their potential thisseason was unlimited.

“I told them as long as we’re undefeated,we’re state champion and league champion

contenders — we can accomplish anything wewant.”

The Burgher gridiron squad’s next game isFriday versus Rensselaer, away at 7 p.m.

LAKE GEORGE — TheWarriors football team had alocomotive Saturday in starrunning back Caleb Meroski,who ran for 269 yards andscored four touchdowns asLake George derailed the

Whitehall Railroaders 36 to14.

Lake George Coach JeffBennett said Meroski seemedto be unstoppable.

“Caleb ran so hard he wasdetermined not to go downwith one tackle,” he said.“Also, it took more than onedefender to drag him down.”

Newly minted quarterback

Vinnie Crocitto tallied the firsttouchdown for Lake GeorgeWarriors squad, which wastrailing 6-0 through the firstquarter. Crocitto’s charge wasan 8-yard run that helpedlaunch the Lake Georgeground attack and relievededgy Warrior fans.

Bennett spread the praisebeyond Meroski, who ranover, around, and through hisopponents.

Bennett also praised Crocit-to for throwing the ball accu-rately, and receiver Matt Mc-Gowan for some key catchesthat fired up the offense. In aa 4th down and 18 yard situa-tion, McGowan caught a passand tallied a 25 yard gain tospark the Warriors, Bennettsaid.

“His really big play led toour first touchdown, and thatset the tone for the rest of thegame,” Bennett said.

But his lavish praise was re-served for the guys who clearthe field for the glory players.

“My linemen and blockershit even harder than they didin pre-season practice,” hesaid. “If Meroski is racking up269 yards, that means our of-fensive line blocked reallywell — I’m impressed abouthow all the players showed upwith the attitude they wantedto play football.”
