WARRENSBURG — Political newcomers Linda BakerMarcella and Joyce Reed tr ounced longtime incumbentsAustin Markey and Dean Ackley for four-year terms on theWarrensburg Town Boar d during the Nov . 8 election. Thechallengers out-tallied Markey and Ackley in the SeptemberG.O.P. primaries, and in the latest election, the mar gin waswidened — a commanding 2-1 tilt of votes cast. Marcella re-ceived 527 votes and Reed garnered 521, while Markey had261, and Ackley, 254. Absentee votes have yet to be counted.

Early Wednesday, Joyce Reed offered her thoughts on theelection results and her victory alongside Marcella.

“People in town got involved and informed, understoodthe issues, and voted accordingly,” she said.

Reed and Marcella had challenged Ackley and Markey re-cently on the incumbents’ support of fr ee health insurancefor life for town board members.

Just two weeks ago, Ackley and Markey cast a minority“No” vote on a town budget that called for town board mem-bers to contribute 20 per cent toward their health insurancepremiums. The spending plan featur ed a zero tax increase.Reed said that voters paid attention to these actions.

“Citizens understand that these health car e costs ar e anincreasing burden on local taxpayers,” she added. “I loveseeing that local citizens have gotten involved lately in the

issues that affect the town.”She said that she and Mar cella will be seeking to r epeal

the lifetime health insurance for board members — the ben-efit that some have estimated will cost taxpayers millions ofdollars in the coming years.

Reed also said she was seeking pr ogress in converting tobilling the town’s water customers by volume of water used,rather than by arbitrary set fees now charged.

For nearly two decades, water meters have been installedin Warrensburg, but the billing system hasn’t been enacted.Some observers say it has been because some prominent cit-

izens using high volumes of water didn’t want to pay more,so they obstructed the change.

For years, Ackley and Markey have been stalling on ef-forts to meter town water, while voicing support for devel-oping a new well, an idea that Reed cites as expensive.

Reed noted that if the water wer e metered, however, thetaxpayers would save substantial sum of money thr oughconservation. Municipal water studies indicate that whencitizens have to pay for the volume of water they use, over-all consumption is reduced 10 to 20 percent.

Reed also said that billing of water should be conductedon usage, to assure an equitable sharing of costs.

Contacted General Election night, Mar cella said she wassurprised by the width of the 2-1 vote margin.

“People decided they didn’t want any more of the ‘same-old, same-old,’” she said.

Marcella also said that discord on the town board had im-peded progress. Political observers have seen Markey andAckley often have teamed up on one side of an issue, whileSupervisor Kevin Geraghty and Deputy Supervisor JohnAlexander are lined up on the other side.

“The town needs board members working as a team,” shesaid. “I think citizens ar e now excited about how we canmove forward.”

Reed agreed with Marcella’s assessment.“Local r esidents a re r eady f or a n ew p erspective,” s he

said.

L A K E G E O R G E — T h eupstart grassr oots LakeGeorge Citizens Gr oupearned a spot in local politi-cal history Nov . 8 as theirslate of candidates buckedthe Republican party andcaptured all three open posi-tions in town government.

Local surveyor and engi-neer Dennis Dickinson de-feated Lake Geor ge T ownSupervisor Frank McCoy bya vote of 606 to 477.

Capturing seats on thetown council wer e r etiredelectrician Dan Hurley andformer V illage T rusteeMarisa Muratori — also run-ning with Citizen’s Gr oup’sardent support. They defeat-ed established, popular Re-publican Town Boar d mem-bers Caryl Clark and ScottWood. Dan Hurley r eceived583 votes and Muratori gar-nered 568, compar ed toWood’s 468 and Clark’s 465,followed by Democrat JanieGreen with 88 votes.

Surrounded by CitizenGroup members celebratingthe victories T uesday nightat East Cove Restaurant,Dickinson said he waspleased with the mar gin ofhis win.

“It wasn’t a matter of par-ticular issues, it was just thatlocal r esidents wanted achange,” he said. “W e wentout door -to-door to about1,000 homes, and we hear dthat people just wanted to

see different people in of-fice.”

Referring to the issues offinancial accountability andgovernment transpar encychampioned by the Citizen’sgroup, Dickinson said thatcitizens had been dissatis-fied with past practices andwanted progress.

“Frank McCoy gave us apretty big start moving for-ward on these issues, butnow we have other things towork on,” he said. “AndCaryl and Scott wer e r ealstrong candidates, but thevoters wanted some fr eshideas and move in a differentdirection.”

Citizens Gr oup co-founder Joanne Gavin saidtheir candidates wer e suc-cessful because they had in-novative ideas as well as lis-tening to the local citizens’views on futur e dir ectionsfor the town.

“The vision our candi-dates have, their goals forthe future — based on whatthey heard from the commu-nity — wer e a very impor-tant factor in the election’soutcome,” she said.

Muratori, who hasworked to develop localsustainable economic vitali-ty as well as pursuing envi-ronmental objectives, saidthe Lake Citizens Group putforth a concerted ef fort toachieve progressive goals aswell as place their candi-dates in office.

“it was a tr emendous ef-fort by a lar ge number of

people working all seasonlong,” she said. “Now, Iwant to see stabilization intaxes, impr oved health ofthe the lake, and to see theeconomy grow in a way thatreflects the tr ue identity ofLake George.”

McCoy said he was disap-pointed with the results, but

wished the opposing candi-dates well.

“Regardless of how manygood things our administra-tion accomplished, the vot-ers just wanted a change,”he said, noting his boar d’sdrafting of the Exit 21 Corri-dor development plan, theban on phosphor us in the

lake’s watershed, the intr o-duction of stricter financialcontrols, and tightenedoversight of developmentnear waterways.

“We wer e r eally a veryprogressive board — thetown is a lot better of f thanit was two years ago,” headded, noting that taxes

were reduced two years in arow, and town governmenthas mor e transpar ency aswell as a new payr oll sys-tem. “But the CitizensGroup had a lot of moneyand a lot of people behindthem — and the voters wereready for a change.”

Sixth Anniversary Celebration

By Thom [email protected]

ATHOL — Trash collection in Thurman isnow under r econsideration for eliminationin town, accor ding to discussions air ed atthe local town board meeting held Monday,Nov. 7. The gathering featur ed a full houseof local r esidents expr essing opinions andfrustrations over both taxes and potentialcutbacks in services.

Town Supervisor Evelyn W ood r eintro-duced her initial 2012 budget plan thatscraps the town’s curbside trash collectionand calls for a zer o per cent tax incr ease,rather than the 11 to 17 percent now pendingwith trash pickup retained.

Town Board members Al Vasak and BeckyHitchcock, who several weeks ago r ejectedeliminating trash collection, spoke in termsfavoring the move to avoid a tax increase.

Also, the boar d made no move Nov . 7 toenact a tax cap override, which would be apreliminary step in passing a budget reflect-ing such an increase.

Wood proposed that the town collect trashat the town landfill, and charge for disposalservices, $1 per 15-gallon bag, and $2 for a33 gallon bag.

Resident Diane Golden criticized the pro-posal, saying that local r esidents woulddump m ore r efuse o n t he l ocal l andscapethan they do now.

“This is an absolutely horrific loss of serv-ices that will be so destr uctive of pr opertyvalues,” she said, suggesting the town stepup its enforcement measures.

Vasak r esponded by noting that hiring acode enforcement officer to stop the dump-ing would boost taxes, as would a new trashtruck, at a cost of $250,000 to r eplace thetown’s existing deteriorating trash hauler.

“Unless we fire two employees, there’s noway to keep the town budget under a twopercent increase if we r etain trash pickup,”he said, adding that if r esidents wantgarbage pickup, they’d have to shoulder ahefty tax increase. He and others respondedthat trash dumping would likely occurwhether or not there was curbside pickup.

“Keeping roads plowed is a necessity,” hesaid. “But garbage pickup is a luxury wemight be able to do without.”

The r emark pr ompted applause fr ommany in the packed town hall.

Resident Jean Coular d suggested cuttingtwo full-time positions in the highway de-partment to offset the expense of trash pick-up, adding that a new trash collection truckwould be a “good investment.”

Wood responded that the move of cutting

the positions would curtail the ability of thehighway crew to keep roads plowed, endan-gering the loss of the town’s contract withWarren County to plow county highways, anagreement that earns Thurman $160,000 an-nually.

Wood said that free garbage pickup serv-ices were being abused in town. The tonnagethat the town was hauling away was 24 timesthe national average, she said, and some res-idents were depositing heaps of trash by thetown tr ucks on town pr operty at night r e-gardless of the free pickup.

She speculated that some people wer edriving their garbage to Thurman to disposeof it. Several local r esidents agreed, addingthat some residents were putting tons of ma-terial out to be picked up.

Resident Pierr e Cyr said that fr ee trashpickup was a service that created “unintend-ed consequences” including lack of effort inseparating recyclables.

“Residents have to take responsibility fortheir own trash,” he said.

Vasak agreed, noting that recyclables werenow a saleable commodity, although thetown was paying dearly to have the materi-als hauled away — either sorted out for r e-cycling, or improperly mixed in with house-hold trash.

While some people raised questions aboutthe bur den on elderly and hous ebound intransporting their trash to the landfill, Cyrsuggested that townspeople act as goodneighbors and help out those in need.

• In other business, Wood said that loss ofstate aid of $1,000 to the summer youth pro-gram put it in jeopardy. She and Vasak sug-gested that the program be cut, and the sev-eral dozen children attending join Warrens-burg’s summer program.

• Despite pleas fr om the W arrensburgemergency squad to continue their contractto it’s 2010 level of $50,000 annually , ratherthan the sum of $20,000 now budgeted for2012, the board didn’t back down. Warrens-burg Squad Board President Bob Farrell saidhis agency would suf fer substantial lossesproviding full services to the town for$20,000 per year.

• Supervisor Wood said that efforts to re-gain possession of the town-owned ambu-lance from the beleaguered Thurman emer-gency squad might soon end up in litigation.She said that although prior town Supervi-sor John Haskell had signed a contract thatpromised to turn over the ambulance to thesquad when the squad fully reimbursed thetown for its pur chase — and ther e are nowonly two payments remaining — substantiallegal flaws existed in the contract.

“Our case is strong,” she said. “We could

get the ambulance back by the end of theyear.”

• Doug Needham of the Thurman Connec-tions Snowmobile Club asked the board forpermission for snowmobilers to use a por-tion of River Road near its intersection withBowen Hill Road to connect snowmobiletrails r unning between Hamilton Countyand Lake George.

The r oute alongside the town r oadwayswas now needed because of the loss of useof the county rail bed due to newly reactivat-ed winter train service, and the Thurman

link was vital for sledders traveling throughthe Adirondacks to Vermont or even Cana-da, he said.

Board members raised concerns aboutpublic safety, noting that the r oadway r e-quested had steep drop-offs and was narrowportions, presenting a hazar d to both sled-ders and motorists r ounding turns and en-countering unexpected snowmobiles.

Needham responded that these pr oblem-atic str etches could be posted with signswarning of hazards. The board tabled the is-sue for further consideration.

Trash collection to end in town of Thurman?

Adirondack Journal Editorial

Clarity in government is essen-tial for the participation ofthe people. In few places is

that clarity as important as a town orcity budget.

The town budget has a great impacton people's daily lives. But manybudgets presented to citizens, espe-cially in smaller towns, are difficult toread. The documents are full of abbre-viations and tightly-packed figuresthat may capture the spirit and themost essential information on thebudget process, but it’s meaningless tomost citizens.

A budget summary or narrative canbe helpful. The issue with one of theseattached to a budget that citizens can'tread is that they don't know exactlyhow trustworthy or inclusive the in-formation is; they can't verify it ontheir own. This is a tall hurdle thatmakes it hard for constituents to feelempowered.

The role of government is the au-thoritative allocation of scarce re-sources. Towns' budget officers areworking to stay under the 2 percenttax cap, and for some towns this canmean a few thousand dollars up ordown. With that little wiggle room, in-formed feedback from constituents ismore valuable than usual this budgetyear.

The role of citizens is to hold theirrepresentatives accountable. If the citi-zens can't account for the money theirgovernment is spending, they're miss-ing out on participating in the mostimportant function of their governingbody.

The problem with many of thesepublicly distributed documents is theirextreme brevity. There's a lot of infor-mation to put in there, but handingout small books for public review isawfully inefficient. Paper's not whatit used to be in this 21st century.

Space was a consideration in those

bygone days before data bits flewthrough cables and airwaves, bringingus funny cats and free news articles.Now, all that bandwidth required forMittens' latest mishap can easily ac-commodate a bigger document packedwith easier-to-digest line items.

A modern revolution in informationdesign provides many solutions to thatproblem.

Cook County, Ill. made a visualiza-tion tool called “Look at Cook” avail-able online for its citizens. The toolfeatures an interactive line graphshowing year-to-year spending, withline items that can be drilled downthrough until users see exactly wheretheir town’s money is spent. The pro-gram is an open source, meaning it’sfree to use, though it does requiresome amount of technical expertise.

In Portsmouth, N.H., a city councilcandidate named Jack Thorsen hasposted a tool that shows the municipalbudget in a pie chart. That by itself isnothing impressive, but as soon as theuser hovers their mouse cursor overthe graphic it comes alive, spinningand expanding.

When a slice of the chart is clicked,say “Library,” a list opens to the rightof the chart, documenting how the li-brary funds are spent exactly, fromovertime to postage to book-binding.Thorsen is developing his visualiza-tion tool as a business venture.

At a time when citizens and budgetofficers are calling for more creativityin allocating those scarce resources, alittle creativity in presenting the budg-et can make community input a lotmore valuable.

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

Spending plans need to bepresented in readable form It’s been called a mira-

cle. Others call it anecessity. And yet by

some it’s a matter of his-toric proportion. But nomatter what you call it ourtwo year and a month sen-tence of life in the NorthCountry without the LakeChamplain Bridge has nowcome to an end.

Estimated to take up toeight years to rebuild, thespan, condemned in Octo-ber of 2009, had stood for over 81 years.The new bridge erected in the same his-toric spot now stands as a shining exam-ple of what can be accomplished evenwhen the odds are not in your favor.

The public was repeatedly told justbefore its closure, that the bridge wassafe. Then like a lightning strike thebridge was closed and within a fewweeks completely demolished. Anychance of a reprieve for the old girl wassent to the bottom on that cold snowyDecember day.

Like so many things in life we take forgranted, none of us living in the regionimagined life without this major arterybetween New York and Vermont. Thedevastation on family lives, work sched-ules, interstate commerce and medicalnecessities seemed almost unbearable atthe time. Locals were quick to realize anextraordinary effort was an absolutemust, but the thought of getting twostate governments, the federal govern-ment and a host of bureaucratic agen-cies to come together, recognize thegravity of the situation and respondrapidly, even knowing what we knownow today, seemed like a lot to expect.

We all owe a considerable amount tothe many volunteer organizers who ral-lied to the cause, all of our local electedofficials who joined in the effort, thestate agency workers and the two gover-nors and their staffs all who clearly un-derstood the significant importance ofthe bridge between Crown Point, N.Y.and Addison, Vt.

At a time when the economy was al-ready struggling and in an area where

critical mass does not existin comparison to morepopulated regions, thenew Champlain LakeBridge stands today as ashining monument to whatpeople and governmentcan accomplish when trulypressed for a quick realis-tic solution to a dire prob-lem.

Perhaps like those whowere here when the firstLake Champlain Bridge

was erected in 1929, every time theywent by the bridge or travel across itsspan they remembered what travel waslike before the bridge stood. Neveragain in our life times will we ever takethe bridge for granted nor forget thosedays before the Lake Champlain FerryTransportation Company was able to re-store a temporary passage across thelake. Never again will any of us who de-pend on the bridge for our livelihoods,or even a day of relaxed travel ever for-got what life was like without that allimportant link.

And we should never forget all thosewho worked night and day through thefrigid cold of our North Country win-ters, nor the blistering summer heat torestore the bridge. The bridge stands asa proud marker to the Bridge Coalitionand all those who played a role in itsrestoration. None of us will ever crossthis bridge or any bridge again withoutthinking of its importance to the peoplewho live there and have come to dependso heavily on the strength of its exis-tence.

True, heart felt “Appreciation” is atremendous gift, and it’s the ribbon ontop of that shining new bridge that onceagain graces our beautiful Lake Cham-plain. May we never again think of any-thing but true appreciation for it andthose who helped make it happen when-ever it comes into sight.

•100 Years Ago – Nov. 1911•Town elects first G.O.P. chief

A rare assemblage of good fellows met theevening of Nov. 15, 1911 in the Grand ArmyHouse at a banquet given in honor of theking of good fellows, Milton N. Eldridge,Warrensburgh’s newly elected and first-everRepublican supervisor.

The tables wer e decorated and coverswere laid for 50 guests. J.P . Gabel, the localcaterer had spread out a lavish banquet withmany succulent items including Blue Pointoysters on the half shell, tenderloin a-la-casserole, roast Vermont turkey with oysterdressing and Car denal punch, plus all thefixings. Imported cigars were handed out af-ter the meal and the smoke began to curl up-ward from 50 contented smokers.

Acting as toastmaster , Hon. James A.Emerson deliver ed a masterful addr esswhich closed with the expression of a desireto live and die in W arrensburgh. Mr . El-dridge r esponded in his characteristicallyhappy manner and assur ed his listeners hewould work for the inter ests of the taxpay-ers and would consider himself r esponsibleto them only. The speeches went on well intothe night.

(Note: The Grand Army House later be-came The W arren Inn and now anotherbuilding stands on the lot on the corner ofMain and Water streets, housing John Hen-ry’s tavern.

Milton N. Eldridge was an amazing man,never afraid of har d work. He was born atWevertown, Oct. 16, 1880, a son of Hon. Tay-lor J. Eldridge, known as “T.J.,” a prominentNorth Cr eek mer chant who served W arrenCounty with distinction for five years in thelower branch of the state legislature.

In 1899 his father , with Hon. Louis W .Emerson and James A. Emerson, establishedthe Warrensburgh Woolen Co., a principalarea industry on the old pants factory lot.Milton was put in char ge of the businesswhich manufactur ed 40 pairs of men’s all-

wool trousers per day as well as varieties ofwoolen cloth. The str eet was later named“Milton Avenue” in his honor. This lot is to-day 18 Milton Avenue where I now reside.

Milton Eldridge was Warrensburgh super-visor from 1912 to 1921, having taken overthe job from Dr. Alfred J. Pitcher, a veterinar-ian who lived on Elm St. Fr om 1922 to 1924he was a state Assemblyman. Eldridge wasa “live wire,” a handsome and accomplishedgentleman, a man born to lead, who nevermarried and was very popular her e in hishometown.)

The rough house bluesFred L. Hamilton of W arrensburgh went

on another rampage Sunday night, Nov. 12,1911 and started a r ough house at his homeon Main St. After a struggle he was subduedby his son and was than arrested for assault.He was given a hearing Monday morningand in consideration of an agreement on hispart to pay $7 per week toward the supportof his family and to keep away fr om them,the proceedings were suspended. Should heviolate the agr eement at any time he willagain be arraigned to answer the char gespreferred against him.

Mother Nature provides bountySeth Alden and Geor ge Fuller took up a

bee tree from which they secured 80 poundsof honey.

Dan Doty, an Adirondack gum hunter, hasfinished gathering 1,300 pounds of spr ucegum which he found during the summer inthe Adirondack forests. The most he ever se-cured in one day was 30 pounds. He gets$1.50 cents a pound for his gum fr om drug-gists.

Hero saves lady from a bearA school teacher was imprisoned in the at-

tic of a country schoolhouse by a black bearand she was rescued by a teamster who shotthe bear.

Miss Helen Cowles is the her oine of thisthrilling tale and the scene of her peril and

daring rescue was in the Gr ogan district inan isolated section between Lake George andGlens Falls. Miss Cowles went to the school-house to do some special work on Satur dayafternoon, Oct. 28, 1911, when the bear paidher a visit and she fled to the attic to escapehis clutches. Ther e she was imprisoned forseveral hours until John A. Chadwick ap-peared and shot the bear dead.

Voters reject Library fundingA large majority of the tax payers of War-

rensburgh, by their vote on Tuesday, Nov. 7,1911, expr essed their disappr oval of theproposition to increase the annual appropri-ation for the Richar ds Fr ee Public Libraryfrom $100 to $300. The vote was 120 for and220 against and we believe that the voteagainst was actuated solely by motives ofeconomy. What the citizens do not realize isthat the increase for the great majority of thetaxpayers would be less than 32 cents each.

The people of Warrensburgh appear to beguilty of that most despicable of offenses, in-gratitude. The Richards Free Public Librarywas a free gift to the town of Warrensburghfor the use and benefit of its inhabitants forall time with an outlay of at least $55,000 andnow has fallen on har d times and asked fora little assistance fr om those whom theyfaithfully serve.

The library will forge on and continue itsgood work in this community and many ofthe people who helped to defeat this propo-sition will continue to enjoy the many ad-vantages it offers in the future as they havein the past.

Lost, looking to be foundEdwin Upton of Warrensburgh is offering

a $5 reward for the return of “Dewdrop,” hisfemale Beagle hound. Although the owner’sname is on her collar , no questions will beasked if she is returned.

Harry Bolton at the Bolton House Hotel,Warrensburgh, asks for the r eturn of hissmall black puppy , “Buster ,” an eight-month-old beagle who went missing on Nov.

8, 1911. His children are heartbroken.

Mills, only one man becoming dr unk anddisorderly. A warrant was issued for his ar-rest but the constable was unable to find himand he has not been seen since. It is rumoredthat he has taken to the tall timber of thenorth. (Note: Getting drunk on Election Dayapparently was a tradition with more than afew people in the North Country at the turnof the century, according to news articles ofthat era.)

Alfred Smith, son of the late Geor ge W.L.Smith of Smith’s Basin, has been appointedpostmaster ther e. Grandfather, father andson have been appointed in succession fromPresident Lincoln in 1861 to President Taft in1911.

QUEENSBURY — Warren County leaders decided Mon-day, Nov. 7 in a split vote to restore the funds for their YouthCourt after hearing persuasive pleas fr om teenaged volun-teers participating in the program.

Featuring t een p rosecutors, j uries, d efense l awyers a ndjudges, county Youth Court determines alternative sen-tences for non-violent youthful offenders.

The program has been credited with doling out stiffer sen-tences than county Family Court, as well as relieving a sub-stantial burden on the county court system.

At a special county budget committee meeting, W arrenCounty Supervisors voted to restore its 2011 contribution of$18,746 to the Youth Court operations for 2012 — funds thathad been cut in October during earlier budget-formation ses-sions.

About a dozen county Youth Court teen volunteers attend-ed the meeting, and four of them spoke about the program,citing that the program reduced crime in the county, as wellas rehabilitating wayward young offenders — and prompt-ing dozens of local teens to explore law careers.

“Many kids going through this program come from fami-ly situations that are not good,” said Chauncey Southworthof Glens Falls, a teen who has been involved in the programfor years. “Youth Court gives them an opportunity to be withpeople, including their peers, who ar e headed in the rightdirection.”

He added that diverting just one teen fr om jail for a sixmonth’s stay would offset the county’s costs of Youth Courtfor more than a year.

Allyson Mullin of Glens Falls told the Supervisors howYouth Court helped her get back on track after enduring ad-verse circumstances that included a run-in with the law. She

said she’d been bullied and harassed, leading to social anx-iety and an arrest for chronic truancy from high school.

Youth Court, she said, turned her life ar ound. If her casehad gone through Family Court, she would have been sentback home into the same situation, she said, with “babysit-ting” provided by a county probation officer.

But through Youth Court, she was prosecuted by her peers,

and sentenced to 55 hours of community service — whichincluded painting buildings and pulling weeds in swelter-ing weather at East Field.

“I became best friend with others in Youth Court, and I’mgoing to college now,” she said. “The program is very bene-ficial — it helps kids rehabilitate themselves and be posi-tive members of society.”

Warren County Youth court funding restored after pleas from teens

Teen participants in Warren County Youth Court — and one of their mentors — listen Nov. 7 to county supervisors debate the future of the pro-gram. After hearing the pleas from the teens describing how the program has turned lives around, the county officials restored the funding forYouth Court in the 2012 county budget.

LAKE GEORGE — Two innovative artists will be fea-tured at a reception from 4 to 6 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 12 cel-ebrating the opening of their dual exhibit at the Court-house Gallery on Lower Amherst St.

Area art enthusiasts are encouraged to attend and wel-come artists Mary Gaynier and David Greenberger.

Attendees will likely be talking with Greenberger abouthis abstract drawings, of fbeat life experiences, books,recordings, and chat with Gaynier about her intricate cutpaper art.

After earning a degree in fine arts from MassachusettsCollege of Art as a painter, Greenberger took a job as ac-tivities director at a nursing home in Boston. That year hecreated The Duplex Planet, a long-r unning publicationbased on his conversations with the residents. The expe-rience gave him a new direction as an artist, leading to anumber of books, several documentaries, a comic booksseries, and recordings.

For the past decade his focus has been on cr eatingmonologues with music, r esulting in mor e than a dozenCDs and performances for museums, theaters, and uni-versities. His works have also been heard regularly on Na-tional Public Radio's "All Things Considered.” In 2008 hewas commissioned by the Contemporary Jewish Museumin San Francisco to create a new work about memory, “TellMe That Before.” A documentary on his work dealing withage and community has been featured on PBS.

Greenberger ’s exhibit at the Courthouse Gallery fea-tures small squar e drawings depicting patterned fieldsmade of words and minute marks. They appear to be ab-stract but manifest qualities of being quite specific and attimes autobiographical.

Gaynier ’s work is often compared to Scherrenschnitte,or scissors cutting, a traditional German art form wher epaper is cut into intricate, delicate folk art designs. Marybegan experimenting with cut paper in 2001 while mak-ing snowflakes to decorate her home for the holidays.From this simple diversion morphed into an obsession,and simple designs evolved into a complex mix of abstractpatterns and identifiable images of everyday life, Gayniersaid.

Gaynier ’s work has been exhibited widely thr oughoutthe U.S. She currently resides and works in Toledo, Ohio.

The dual exhibit runs through Dec. 16. For details see:www.lakegeorgearts.org or call 668-2616.

trounced long-tenur ed Republicans AustinMarkey and Dean Ackley for the townboard, in a coup that is expected to prompta substantial shift in local politics.

In the Town of Horicon, blunt, outspokenTown Supervisor Ralph Bentley — who hadbeen handed defeat in the Republican pri-mary by local contractor Bob Olson —scored a stunning comeback win as an inde-pendent candidate in the general election.Bentley’s hand-picked choice for a succes-sor in his post, political newcomer MatthewJ. Simpson, out-polled popular, establishedcouncilman Joseph Dooris.

In Johnsbur g, the laid-back, af fable RonVanselow, a rare Democrat in G.O.P territo-ry, handily won an election — his first everfor the town supervisor post — despite a lastminute anonymous accusation that he hadonce smuggled contraband into jail for pris-oners, leading to the termination of his jobas a GED instructor for inmates. It turns outhe had deliver ed holiday candy to his stu-dents as a reward for their efforts.

In Hague, Edna Frasier , deputy supervi-sor Edna Frasier won a race for the top post,defeating a write-in challenge fr om DavidFitzgerald, to r eplace car eer politician Su-pervisor Dan Belden, who is retiring.

In Stony Cr eek, newcomers NathanThomas and Doreen Ryan edged out estab-lished councilman Stanley Ross, although aslim mar gin of four votes on election day

may be overturned by absentee ballots.For the post of county Treasurer, the name

O’Keefe is relegated to the history books, atleast for now.

County Real Pr operty Services Dir ectorMichael Swan defeated Michael O’Keefe, abusiness teacher seeking to take over thepost occupied in recent history by his father,Frank O’Keefe. the elder O’Keefe wasrenowned for transforming the of fice byproviding financial advice to county leaders— a tradition Swan has pledged to carry for-ward while making it easier for citizens topay taxes through electronic bank transfersand credit card payments.

In Queensbury, a duo of newcomers to lo-cal politics upset the status quo.

Mark Westcott — a U.S. Congr essionalaide — and William Mason were elected totwo posts as County At-Large Supervisorsrepresenting Queensbury alongside incum-bents David Strainer and Matthew Sokol.

Meanwhile, incumbent W illiam VanNess— an active, str ong voice on the countyBoard of Supervisors — was defeated.

In Glens Falls, incumbent 2nd W ard Su-pervisor Peter McDevitt was edged out bychallenger Steven Philion by only one vote,leaving 35 absentee ballots to decide therace in the next 10 days or so.

Overall, with the winds of change gustingthrough the local political scene this fall,five or six newcomers will soon be in lead-ership roles in Warren County government,making decisions that have substantial ef-fect on local citizens.

QUEENSBURY — Senior communitymealsites through Warren County will be re-tained, but the kitchens in the eight locationswill be shut down, accor ding to a decisionreached Monday , Nov . 7 by the W arrenCounty Board of Supervisors.

The 2012 budget revisions endorsed Mon-day included r estoring payments of $7,000to $18,000 per year to various chur ches andtowns and or ganizations for funding thecounty mealsites.

The community mealsites wer e to beclosed down entir ely in an earlier budgetproposal drafted in late October.

This latest pr oposal calls for pr eparingmeals at two central locations, which wouldstill eliminate six county jobs of mealsitemanagers and cooks, as well as substituteworkers. Such cutbacks would likely alsoeliminate several other town-funded jobs ofpart-time helpers at the mealsites across thecounty.

The mealsite job cuts are estimated to savecounty taxpayers $124,680. The existingMeals-on-Wheels pr ogram, which delivershot meals to several hundr ed homeboundresidents, is to continue without changes.

The meals for the elderly and disabledwould be prepared at The Cedars Senior Liv-ing Community in Queensbury as well asCountryside Adult Home in Warrensburg —and many of the existing mealsite jobs wouldshift to these two facilities. The meals would

then be prepared and delivered to the meal-sites in the satellite communities.

The changes ar e anticipated to begin inJanuary.

The new r evisions to the pr oposed 2012budget endorsed Nov. 7 include $236,000 ofadditional revenue representing a Medicaidpayment that had not been included in ear-lier budget drafts. The unexpected extrapayment is due to an extra payment sched-

uled from the state to the county in 2012.The new draft of the budget calls for

spending $145.24 million, a $3,163 decr easefrom 2011, but a 1.7 increase in local tax levy,due to r educed r eimbursement fr om thestate linked to their mandated programs.

The prior proposed budget drafted in Oc-tober reflected a 1.9 per cent increase in taxlevy over 2011.

Lake Luzerne Supervisor Gene Merlino

said he objected to the lack of local mealpreparation.

“The Seniors enjoy smelling the food be-ing prepared,” he said, noting the seniors at-tending meals at the Lake Luzerne mealsitecome in early and enjoy socializing with theworkers who may not be there come January.“It won’t be the same experience.”

Chester Supervisor Fred Monroe also saidhe opposed the of f-site meal pr eparation,which would mean local job cuts and mightprompt a decline in participation.

“This is very tr oubling,” he said. “W e’recutting services to the citizens who are mostvulnerable.”

County Budget Committee membersBolton Supervisor Ron Conover and Merli-no voted against the cutbacks. Monroe doesnot serve on the panel.

Queensbury Supervisor David Strainersuggested that the county negotiate lowerleases with the owners of the buildings thathouse the mealsites, due to abandoning useof their kitchens as of Jan. 1.

Monroe said the budget cuts for 2011 werefar too deep, eliminating all but one plannerin the planning department, which he notedhad brought $28 million into the county overthe last several decades. He credited Depart-ment director Pat Tatich and senior plannerWayne LaMothe for obtaining grants thathave vital to so many of limited income innorthern Warren County.

“We just can’t replace their expertise,” hesaid. “We’re throwing away 30 years of theirexperience.”

Mealsites retained in revised county budget, but jobs to be cut

Seniors at the Chestertown mealsite enjoy a luncheon meal r ecently. The kitchens at various mealsites areto be closed down, which some county officials said this week would likely reduce participation in the pro-gram.

Lake Champlain Bridgefrom page 1

Oct. 16, 2009. Commuters and visitors had totake a free ferry to get between Crown Point,N.Y. and Addison, Vt. when the serviceopened on Feb. 1, 2010. The loss of the oldbridge was described multiple times as “aninconvenience.”

While politicians lamented the old bridge— remembered well by more than a dozen’29ers who had been at the original Aug. 26,1929 bridge opening — Nov. 7, 2011 was thebeginning of a new chapter in the history ofLake Champlain.

“I want to point out that this is day one,”said Rep. Bill Owens, D-Plattsburgh. “We’regoing to count forward from here.”

The concept of linking the two states witha new bridge was a common theme amongthe speakers.

“When I looked out, as I was coming to-day, I saw the hands of the community, of thestate of New York and the federal govern-ment r eaching out to one another to bringNew York and V ermont back togetheragain,” Owens said.

While some spoke of the bridge as ametaphor — connecting the common valuesof V ermonters and New Yorkers in theChamplain Valley — others described it as atransportation link essential to the everydaylives of residents.

“It’s mor e than concr ete and steel,” saidNew York Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward,R-Willsboro. “It is the link that the NorthCountry has to the closest trauma unit, andmany ambulances run back and forth acrossthis bridge.”

Between Oct. 16 , 2009 and Feb. 1, 2010,

people had to drive ar ound the old bridgesite to get to the other side, a commute ofmore than 100 miles for work, hospital vis-its, vacations, etc. While the absence of abridge was a barrier, the presence of a bridgeis being seen as a step toward normalcy.

“It’s a place wher e fir e companies r unback and forth between Addison, Vt. andCrown Point and conversely fr om Addisonto help each other ,” Saywar d said. “It’sfarmers who have to cross this bridge to feedtheir cattle and to get their crops. It’s peopletraveling into New England, it’s New Eng-landers traveling into New York ... T oday,your life begins again.”

Shumlin marveled at the speed of thebridge’s construction.

“This is the best example of governmentserving people and getting things done thatyou’ll find anywhere in the nation,” Shum-lin said.

Duffy concurred. “If you were to turn on the media and the

news tonight and any story on any givenday, you hear about what’s wrong with gov-ernment. You hear all the bad things that aregoing on in this world,” Duffy said. “And to-day, we get to celebrate what is right ... to bewhere we ar e today in literally two years’time is nothing short of a miracle.”

Other speakers included New York StateDepartment of Transportation Commission-er Joan McDonald; Sue Minter, deputy sec-retary of the Vermont Agency of Transporta-tion; Vermont State Rep. Diane Lanpher, D-Vergennes; Jonathan McDade, New York di-vision a dministrator f or t he F ederal H igh-way Administration; Karen Hennessy (NewYork) and Lorraine Franklin (V ermont), co-chairs of the Lake Champlain Bridge Com-munity; Crown Point Town Supervisor

Bethany Kosmider; and New York Sen. Bet-ty Little, R-Queensbury.

“I don’t know that you can have a betterbridge,” Little said.

The new Network T ied Arch Bridge is asteel structure with an arch along the centerspan. It was designed by Ted Zoli and builtby Flatir on Constr uction. The bridge’s de-sign makes it safer than the pr evious struc-

ture and will ensure at least a 75-year serv-ice life. Key bridge components are designedto be easily r eplaceable to r educe mainte-nance costs. T ravel lanes ar e 11 feet wide,with 5-foot shoulders that will help accom-modate larger tr ucks and farm vehicles, aswell as pr ovide ample r oom for bicyclists.Sidewalks are featured on both sides of thebridge.

Polar Expressfrom page 1

two trips on the concluding days of Dec. 27 and 28.At the Nov. 3 media event, Arlinda Birdsall and thr ee of

her grandchildren — young triplets Nick, Luke and Kate Ses-selman — experienced a taste of the upcoming Polar Expresstrip.

“This is so exciting for my grandkids — they’ve been talk-ing about this non-stop,” Bir dsall said of her youngsters,garbed in Santa hats and pajamas. “They are playing hookyfrom pre-school to be here.”

Kaitlin Carter, a new resident of Saratoga Springs, said herchildren Kadyn, 4, and Lawson, 1, were excited about an up-coming ride on the Polar Express.

“It will be a fantastic experience — it’s their first train rideever.”

Debra Goodman of the Saratoga & North Cr eek Railwaypredicted that the Polar Express excursions out of Saratogathis season would enchant children and adults as they havein other railways in the western U.S. operated by Iowa Pa-cific, the local railroad’s parent firm.

“The Polar Express is much more than an event,” she said.“The experience is truly special because of the emotion it cre-ates.”

For the themed rail trips, children are encouraged to wearpajamas to immerse themselves in the spirit of the story.

Three choices of seating options ar e available, includingthe railway’s signature dome cars. Goodman said she antic-ipates that the Polar Expr ess will draw thousands of ridersin its debut year , introducing them to the amenities of thescenic rail line. Those who purchase a quantity of tickets re-ceive a bonus which give them that opportunity.

Passengers who purchase four Polar Express tickets for aNovember trip receive a voucher for two fr ee coach ticketson the Gore Mountain Snow Train.

Tickets for Polar Express, ranging from $10 to $55 depend-ing on a passenger’s age and seat selection, are available on-line at www.SaratogaPolarExpressRide.com. Details areavailable at that website, or by calling (877) 726-RAIL.

WARRENSBURG — Warrensburg YouthFootball coach Gary Baker knew his teamhad a real challenge ahead of them Saturdaynight, when his water bottle, next to the teambench, iced over.

His players, fifth and sixth graders, couldsee clouds of fr ozen steam when they ex-haled. Temperatures wer e dr opping as theteam was facing the tough and skilledWhitehall squad in the first-ever Superbowlof the Northern Adirondack Youth FootballLeague.

But under the lights on the Corinth fieldon Oct. 5, the young 31 gutsy Little Burghersfought with determination and focusthrough four quarters and br ought home ahard-won 39-26 victory and captured the re-gional youth football championship.

With a r ushing attack led by Gr eg Sham-bo, the Bur ghers moved the ball over 400yards on the ground. The virtually mistake-free of fense was piloted quarterback EvanMacduff.

The Burgher game play featured a mixtureof two r ushing attacks — the Double-W ingoffense similar to their Burgher high-schoolcounterparts, and a Power -I formation. Theformer is a wedge of players surr oundingthe ball carrier that smashes through the op-ponent's defensive line, and the latter is alineup of the quarterback having a choice ofhandoffs to either the tailback behind him orthe wingback off to one side.

The dual attack kept Whitehall’s hard-hit-

ting defense at bay.After the Bur ghers first demonstrated

lackluster tackling and gave up a touchdownto Whitehall on their first drive, W arrens-burg’s coaches advised their players to ap-ply more aggressive follow-through to bringdown their opponents.

The Bur ghers dialed up their ef forts aseach team scored in a back-and-forth battle.The Bur ghers modified their defense in r e-sponse to Whitehall’s unbalanced line.

Midway in the game, the Burghers’ deter-mination made the dif ference, pr oviding aturning point that pr ovided momentum forthe rest of the contest.

At the Whitehall 20, on fourth down andthree yards to go, the Bur ghers handed theball to fullback Mike Baker , who char gedthrough the Railr oaders for a first down,leading to a scor e. In the next series, theBurghers recovered a fumble and scored.

“From that point on, we just r olled,”Coach Gary Baker said. “These kids playedtheir hearts out all season, and tonight wasno different.”

Greg Shambo racked up four touchdowns,and John Kelly scor ed two mor e. This duo,along with Mike Baker , Jacob Johnson andDan Monthony, ran for more than 400 yards.

They achieved this feat behind the block-

ing of Cole Lanfear , Robert Shepler , W illSchwartz, Donald Carpenter, Hunter Mosh-er and Brandon Bailey.

Macduff completed a pass to Bailey for anextra point.

Defense was led by Gr eg Shambo, DanMonthony, Will Schwartz, Brandon Bailey ,Jacob Johnson, Mike Baker and Evan Mac-duff.

The Bur gher ’s dual-of fense attack wor eWhitehall’s defense down, gaining the highscores that their high-school counterpartsachieved this year, Coach Baker said.

“Going forward, our players have gaineda lot of knowledge they will be applying atthe next level,” he said, noting the vital con-tribution of players Summer Baker , TylerBaker, Mackenzie Blydenburgh, Mike Click-ner, Ian Colegr ove, Neil Galvin, Nolan Mc-Neill, Corbin Miller , Ben Mosher , PaytonOlden, Trevor Pr osser, Paul Rabine, GarryRoss, Cole Shambo, Austin Smith, Seth Ther-rien, Chris Wilson, Trevor Winchell and SeanWinter.

The success of the team in their champi-onship season was due to the players’ dedi-cation, solid community support and thework of the assistant coaches, including JoeSutphin, Rich Bailey , Brian W inchell, Gr egShambo and Kim Monthony.

The strong support from Warrensburg wasdemonstrated Satur day night, as par ents,friends and r elatives of players showed upin force, alongside high school players andcoaches plus dozens of local spectators thatweren’t related to anyone on the field, CoachBaker said. Bleachers and sidelines were fullof Warrensburg fans.

“The cr owd was huge, and the supportwas incredible,” Baker said. “Grandpar entsof players wer e in the stands watching thegame with blankets over their heads.”

The players’ strong work ethic, he added,propelled them toward their goal of a cham-pionship.

For 13 weeks, the players practiced andhoned their skills on the field, while theirfriends were of f fishing, camping or swim-ming, Baker said. Several players gave uptheir summer vacations to be a part of everygame, he continued.

“I am so very proud to have the privilegeof coaching these kids since flag football sixyears ago,” he said. “For the kids to set a goaland achieve it like they did is tr uly amaz-ing.”

Baker added that the season’s accomplish-ments reflected a total team effort.

“This is something we all will r ememberfor a lifetime.”

Warrensburg captures youth Superbowl championship

LAKE GEORGE — The Lake George Junior Youth footballteam finished its season Oct. 22 with a 14-0 win against War-rensburg. The victory was the team’s seventh in a row.

This thir d- and fourth-grade tackle football team, spon-sored by the Lake George Youth Commission, ended the sea-son undefeated in the Northern Adirondack Youth FootballLeague.

The Mini-Warriors began their season in August withthree weeks of practices followed by a league scrimmage offive other teams — the regional Combine — at Ticonderogaon Labor Day Weekend.

With only 13 players in uniform that day,the little Warriorsproved that the saying that “the hottest fir e for ges thestrongest steel” was true, coach Ted Bearor said.

“The team played through some very hot and humid con-ditions that day,” he said, adding that many of the playerswho played both of fense and defense str engthened theirbond as well as gained experience. “By over coming adver-sity and playing well as a team, they proved to themselves,their opponents, coaches and fans that they were going to bea very good football team.”

During the 2011 season, the Warriors’ talents and determi-nation tallied a r emarkable r ecord. The players accom-plished victories in games against Ticonderoga, 19-8; White-hall, 39-19; Ticonderoga, 26-6; Fort Edwar d, 19-6; Warrens-burg, 26-18; Corinth, 39-18; and finally W arrensburg again,14-0. The Lake George offense averaged almost 26 points pergame while the defense held strong allowing just under 11points per contest.

The team’s abundant scoring can be attributed to its offen-sive line play — many of the players having experience attheir positions with anchors at tackle, guard and center. Thetight ends on the line were quick and strong and able to fendoff attacking opponents, Bearor noted. The offensive back-field had a dynamic triple threat at quarterback, fullback andtailback. Each player in the offensive backfield could scoreon any given play and due to utilizing several different for-mations and play calls — the Warriors were very difficult todefend.

Lake George’s stingy defense played together well and de-veloped into a very good, sur e tackling team, Bear or said.They were able to defend inside runs with a tough defensiveinterior line and strong, fast inside linebackers. On the out-side, the defensive ends wer e often involved in disr upting

plays in the offensive backfield and contributed to shuttingdown the outside r uns. The gr eat play by the defensivebacks and secondary also shut down outside plays and pass-ing attempts, he said.

“This was a special team,” Bearor said with pride.
