ADVENTURE TIME

JOHNSBURG — The JohnsburgTown Board on Tuesday, May 1adopted a strategy to accomplish agrant-funded project at Ski BowlPark that will include a new play-ground featuring a climbing boulderand a multi-use hike-and-bike pathdesigned by local trail-blazing leg-

end Steve Ovitt.But arriving at a decision regard-

ing the direction of the projectproved to be difficult.

Five years ago, the state awardedthe town a parks and recreationmatching grant that would allow thetown to make more than $100,000worth of improvements to Ski BowlPark. The state would kick in halfand the town would kick in the otherhalf. The town’s portion could be

cash, materials, and/or labor, be itpaid or volunteer. At the time, thetown envisioned, among otherthings, a skateboard park, a volun-teer-built wooden playground appa-ratus and renovations to the townbeach.

A lot has happened in the inter-vening years, not the least of whichwas an economic recession that stillhas many municipalities feeling itsimpact, including Johnsburg. With-

out funding to pay for the town’sportion, and with the grant beingsuch that the town had to front theentire cost and then be reimbursed,the town hasn’t been in a position toaccomplish much on the project.

The town has until November toeither finish the project, get an ex-tension to finish the project in futureyears, or, absent either of those op-tions, the town could forfeit the

This is disappointing by any standard, and even more so when seen against JCS Expenditures Per Pupilreported in the Fiscal Accountability Supplement of the N.Y. State School Report Card for 2009-10(latest available).

2009-2010 School Year JCS Similar District Group Total Expenditure per Pupil $25,625 $18,262

This shows JCS cost per pupil is 40% above costs of similar schools. What’s worse is why our School Board hasn’t highlighted these facts at their meetings? Don’t we need a new dynamic member on our Board, a member who has the business and education experience to control organization costs?

• The following year, 2010-11, the Level 3 test results combined for 3rd and 4th Grades in English and Math averaged 62%.

Aerial zip course opens this weekend

NORTH CREEK — The first WildernessFirst Aid (WFA) training for 2012 tookplace on April 7 in North Creek.

Thirteen people took the class thismonth, which is offered at the TanneryPond Community Center. The morningconsisted of classroom training in how toevaluate and treat potential injuries and ill-ness, such as bleeding, broken bones, beestings, and cardiac arrest. During the after-noon, the class went on a hike on the Car-ol Thomas Trail to practice these first aidskills. Each person is assigned an injury ormedical condition to simulate during thehike.

The other participants have to recognizethat there is a problem, evaluate it, andthen treat it using Wilderness First Aid pro-tocols.

This is the seventh WFA class which has

been given in North Creek over the lastthree years. The class is taught by RickMorse, who is local instructor for ECSI(Emergency Care and Safety Institute). Hehas 30 years experience as an EMT and isan adjunct at SUNY Adirondack, teachinga course in River Safety and SwiftwaterRescue. The profits from each class are do-nated to Adirondack TREKS and JohnsburgEMS.

The class will be offered again this sum-mer. New this summer will be the optionfor earning a CPR card, as well as a Wilder-ness First Aid card. Each card carries a two-year certification. Both cards are recog-nized by DEC as satisfying the first aid andCPR requirements for guides. The cost ofthe class is $50, or $30 for people who arerecertifying. If interested, contact RickMorse at [email protected] or 494-4094.

NORTH CREEK — Anger is growing inthe Johnsburg Central School District overelection ads that accuse the board of keepingfinancial and student-performance secretsfrom the community and kowtowing to itsunions.

For a second straight board meeting, resi-dents have asked board members and Super-intendent Michael Markwica about the ads,paid for by school board hopeful Tony Moroand published in the News-Enterprise.

In the ads, Moro lays sins of omission andcommission at the district's feet. It's a variedlist of grievances that together alleges theboard withholds studies that he says showJohnsburg students underperform and taxmoney is wasted. Moro's ads also accuse theboard of ceding too much power to teachersand faculty and their unions.

Just as at the April 16 board meeting, re-tiree Moro attended the April 30 meeting,listening as parents of district students de-fended the district. Unlike the previousmeeting, when Moro addressed accusationsto the board, he sat silent as audience mem-

ber Brian Richards pointedly and repeated-ly asked him to defend statements in his ads.Richards' brother, Mark Richards, is on theschool board.

After the board left the regular meetingthis week for an executive session, Moroasked Richards, "Why didn't you call me athome" before the meeting, and encouragedhim to do so in the future.

Though affable, Moro's conviction thatmoney must be stripped from the schoolbudget and unions declawed in order im-prove test scores grates vocal segments ofthe community.

During an interview with Moro after theboard meeting, a calm but agitated BrianRichards interrupted to ask Moro again toback up his claims.

“I can’t just pull it out of thin air,” re-sponded Moro, adding that he hadn'tbrought supporting research to the meeting.“Why should I?”

Richards said, “You are making pointsthat are skewed, lack credibility or wrong.You had the opportunity to make your caseand you didn’t take it.”

Moro said he would make his case May 15,

the day the community votes on the budgetand on four candidates for two open boardseats now held by Mark Richards and FrankMorehouse Jr.

Richards is running for re-election; More-house is not. Moro is joined by two otherboard challengers: Amy Sabattis and RachelDeGroat.


My Name is Claudio Cappabianca. I’m a resident and have been a homeowner in the Town of Johnsburg since 1988.Like many of you I care a lot for kids and their education. It is their future after all, and ours as well.

I’m deeply worried by long term trends I see at JCS, with spending steadily up and academic quality steadily fl at. Serious trouble will result unless needed steps are taken NOW. We can’t kick the can down the road any longer. Unless we want it to kick back.

I recently spent 3 hours talking to Tony Moro. He’d be a great addition to the Board, with experience in management and fi nance, and vision in education, that none of the other six members have. The Board is badly in need of his active membership.

On May 15th I’ll vote for Anthony Moro.I hope you will too.

NORTH CREEK — The landmark NorthCreek Ski Hut at the Ski Bowl burned on Dec.6, 1999.

The alarm rang at 1:14 a.m. after a passingmotorist spotted the flames from Route 28.First Assistant Chief Steve Studnicky report-ed that the building was 80 to 90 percent con-sumed when the firefighters arrived. TownSupervisor Bill Thomas was quoted in theGlens Falls Post-Star as saying, “It’s alwaysbeen a center of activity in the town,” andlooking at the burned-out structure said,“It’s really sad to see this.”

Arson was immediately suspected. Therehad already been a rash of fires lately: OnNov. 20, a seasonal home in Indian Lake had

burned under suspicious circumstances andthat same day a fire hit an old barn on thecorner of Austin Pond Road and Route 28 inNorth Creek. Earlier that summer there hadbeen suspicious fires in Minerva. After anextensive investigation, it was ultimatelydetermined that it was probably an electri-cal problem that had caused the fire.

The Gore Mt. Ski Club, then limited to ski-ing the “ride up — ski down” Ski Bowl justwest of town, wrote a letter to the TownBoard on Oct. 23, 1940 strongly recommend-ing that the town build a warming hut at theski area. The Town Board acted with speedand on Nov. 7 a resolution was passed to pre-pare engineering plans. Within three weeksa road had been built to the site and trucksvolunteered by the North River Garage andthe A & B Oil Company were hauling field-stone for the building’s foundation, base-ment and fireplaces. Materials and volun-teers were supplied locally and the WPA pro-vided up to 60 men.

By September of 1941, the basement wascompleted. When the Japanese attackedPearl Harbor that December, the WPA foundthey could now only supply a dozen or somen given the war effort, but work stillmoved forward, albeit more slowly.

It was built in the “Government RusticStyle” evident today by log and boulderstructures still in use at Yosemite, CraterLake, the Grand Canyon and Glacier Nation-al Parks. By winter, 4-foot-logs in the giant

first floor fireplace roared out heat andwarmth and in February of 1942 a heatingplant was installed.

Over the ensuing 57 years thousands of lo-cal and visiting skiers had sought warm atthe Ski Hut. It was also used as a meetingplace for many local organizations, numer-ous weddings and family gatherings.Dances for local teenagers were held heresummers in the 1960s and the North CreekChamber of Commerce used the building onmany occasions. Just before the fire, the SkiHut had also been used to store the officialrecords of the Town of Johnsburg Court Pro-ceedings, all of which were lost in the 1999fire.

The insurance proceeds totaled $238,841and were paid the following May with an ad-ditional $31,000 to be released when thebuilding was re-built. But the town boardwas in a quandary: what could they build forthat amount of money and what exactly werethe town’s real needs as it entered the 21stcentury?

Katy Odell, editor of the North Creek NewsEnterprise wrote an editorial at the time ofthe fire saying, “With the Ski Hut gone,Johnsburg residents are faced with the ma-jor decision of how to replacethe structure. Keeping inmind the growing and diverseneeds of the community for acentral gathering place, nowis the time to consider all uses

for a new public building that will serve to-day’s residents and visitors. The need forspace for local government offices, meet-ings, entertainment, warming skiers, andyouth programs should all be consideredwhen deciding on a new structure. Out of theashes comes the opportunity now to planwisely for a new community center to takethe town to the next century.”

Not much seemed to happen — and thenWoody and Elise Widlund, who had semi-re-tired to the Garnet Hill Development inNorth River stepped forward.

News Enterprise Editorial

We’re proud to announce thatGlenn and Carol Pearsall arecurrently writing a 10-part se-

ries about the Tannery Pond CommunityCenter for the News Enterprise.

The series began last week with a storyon “The Tannery” and will continue untilJune 30, when North Creek celebrates the10th anniversary of the Tannery PondCommunity Center with a gala event.

This series will celebrate the essence ofthe Tannery Pond Community Center.

Glenn: “The theme I think we’ll devel-op over the 10 articles and will not just beits history but how in many ways it hashelped re-define the town and madeNorth Creek’s energy and prosperity theenvy of many small Adirondack towns.”

Today, the Tannery Pond CommunityCenter is the hub of cultural activities inthe Gore Mountain Region. Ten years ago,there were still a lot of unknowns.

While there was a lot of optimism, theidea of a town-owned community centerwas controversial. Some taxpayers wereskeptical at first about this building’smaintenance costs to the town of Johns-burg. Yet history has shown that the Tan-nery Pond Community Center was aworthwhile investment. We have foundthat the town has survived, even thoughofficials continue to deal with mainte-nance concerns.

Imagine living here without the Tan-nery Pond Community Center. The voidwould be unbearable and make it difficultfor North Creek to grow and thrive as oneof the premier resort destinations in theAdirondack Park.

This is a versatile building. Home of the Widlund Gallery and the

Gore Mountain Region Chamber of Com-merce, it has hosted musical and theatri-cal performances and lectures. There havebeen many art shows, White Water Derbyaward ceremonies, films, family partiesand gatherings, and Teens Only! events.

And the recent Adirondack EconomicDevelopment Conference showed thatTannery Pond is a great venue for region-al conferences. North Creek is strategical-ly situated to draw people from northernWarren, southern Essex and Hamiltoncounties. There’s no reason we shouldn’tbe inviting people to host more confer-ences here.

That will be up to the Tannery PondCommunity Center Association and itsnew executive director, who will be hiredsoon. We’re confident this will mark thebeginning of an exciting new chapter inthe history of North Creek.

The Tannery Pond Community Centerwas dedicated on June 29, 2002. It was agift from Elise and Woody Widlund to thetown of Johnsburg. The Town Board atthe time included Supervisor Bill Thomasand councilors Eugene Arsenault, HelenCornwall, Arnold Stevens and Alyce VanKeuren.

With renewed interest in the NorthCreek train station — thanks to the com-mitment of the North Creek-SaratogaRailway — the Tannery Pond CommunityCenter is now playing a more importantrole in the economic vitality of NorthCreek. The depot is the northern anchoron Main Street and Tannery Pond is thesouthern anchor. Both are working in tan-dem to supply tourists — especially thosearriving on the train — with a unique vis-itor experience. Because the CommunityCenter and the train station are withinwalking distance, there are ample chancesfor people to stop along the way and shopand eat at local restaurants.

For the past 10 years, the Tannery PondCommunity Center Association hasstayed true to its mission of serving thecommunity by “providing educational,cultural, recreational and social opportu-nities for all ages.”

When the former Alexander ’sgarage/Bacon garage was up for sale in1999, the Widlunds bought the propertyto retain the open space character of thevillage. Then the WPA Ski Bowl buildingburned down in the fall of 1999, leavingNorth Creek without a community center.And the Widlunds quickly decided to do-nate the garage property to the town forthe Tannery Pond Community Center.

It is a gift that keeps on giving. We are thankful to the Widlunds for

this building and to the town of Johns-burg for its outstanding stewardship. It ismuch more than wood, concrete and steel.Tannery Pond Community Center is theheartbeat of this community.

Tannery Pond worth the investment

Over the last fewyears that I’vebeen writing this

column I’ve received manychain emails claiming oneviewpoint or another. I amequally offended by thingsI see coming from the leftand the right. In my opin-ion it is far better to reporton, and talk about, the factsthan it is to relentlessly usethe news in support of apolitical ideology.

As a nation, we were founded on thenotion that our basic rights are providedby a supreme being and that ordinarypeople are more than capable of govern-ing themselves. The U.S. governmenthad one primary purpose: to protect therights of its private citizens. At the timewe became a nation, the world’s nationswere generally governed by an elitehereditary class. Individual rights weregranted and controlled by those rulingthe nation. I fear we are slowly abandon-ing the premise of our Founding Fathersin favor of turning the government overto a ruling class while turning our backson each other and the principles our an-cestors fought for.

We are under assault by small butpowerful and wealthy groups that intendto exploit the government’s power fortheir own personal gain. We see it timeand time again from large corporations,environmentalists, union leaders, enter-tainers and career politicians who per-suasively pursue their agendas in thename of democracy, while leaving therest us to fend for ourselves and pay fortheir gains.

As our nation’s debt now exceeds thecountry’s Gross National Product andstands at $15.4 trillion, soon Congresswill be forced to have yet another vote toraise the debt ceiling. Why are we notdemanding more accountability from ourelected officials and those who lobby theinfluential few? Instead we fall in lineand believe that our elected officialshave our best interests at heart.

The figures contained in a new bookcalled “The Rise of the President’s Per-

manent Campaign,” byBrendan J. Doherty, providestatistical backing to the no-tion that President Obamais more preoccupied withbeing re-elected than withsolving the nation’s eco-nomic woes. Doherty, whohas compiled statisticsabout presidential traveland fundraising going backto President Jimmy Carterin 1977, found that Presi-dent Obama had already

held 104 re-election fundraisers byMarch 6. A combined 94 events wereheld in the same timeframe by presi-dents Carter, Reagan, George H.W. Bush,Clinton, and George W. Bush. Sincethen, the President has held another 20fundraisers, bringing his total to 124high-priced, lavish events. Carter heldfour re-election fundraisers during the1980 campaign, Reagan had zero in 1984,Bush 19 in 1992, Clinton 14 in 1996, andBush 57 in 2004.

The Supreme Court’s ruling this pastsummer allowing for the creation of su-per PACs ( Political Action Committees)with unlimited fundraising capacitymakes it clear that we the people are butsimple pawns in the battle between theleft and the right, the powerful and thesuper-rich who, day by day, are takingcontrol of the country. Our founding fa-thers created a government controlled bythe people, with citizen legislators. Allwe need do to is take a honest lookaround. Ask yourself: Do you feel incharge? Have you seen the governmentworking for your best interest, securingthe future for your children, insuringyour rights as a citizen, or providing youwith the freedom to secure your own?

I am very worried about the futureand what I see happening on both sidesof the aisle. I sincerely hope we all seewhat’s happening and are brave enoughand selfless enough to demand a returnto a government of the people and forthe people.

We all try to leave a lit-tle piece of us behindbefore we go.

Deborah Noble did in 1833when she created a needlepointsampler, listing the members ofher family. She was only 8 yearsold, way too young to begin ex-ploring the nature of her ownmortality, yet old enough to ful-fill a family tradition whilelearning the art of needlepoint.

The Nobles lived in the War-ren County town of Johnsburg.David Noble, a WesleyanMethodist minister from Ire-land, moved to America in 1795,arriving in the Johnsburg area in1800 at a place that would be-come known as the hamlet ofNoble’s Corners. At the time,this was the town of Thurman inWashington County. The town ofJohnsburg was created fromThurman in 1805, and WarrenCounty was formed from Wash-ington County in 1813.

Noble’s son and daughter-in-law, Archibald and MargaretNoble, were Deborah Noble’sparents and are listed on the topof her needlepoint samplerabove the names of her siblings,in order of age: David, Thomas,Mary, Eleanor and William. Deb-orah’s needlework is cottonthread sewn on linen cloth. Aone-door and 11-window bluehouse was sewn to the right of

the children’s names. At the bot-tom of the 11-by-10-inch piece,the 8-year-old recorded her ownhistory:

“Deborah M Noble was bornOctober 22nd 1824 and in 1833made this, aged 8 years, underthe tuition of Eleanor Noble.”

In 1982, the Adirondack Muse-um bought the needlepoint sam-pler from Richard Dudley, ofDudley Antiques in South GlensFalls, along with two otherneedlepoint samplers from thesame family, one from EleanorNoble and another made byMary Eleanor Spoor (datedMarch 4, 1859), the niece of Deb-orah and Eleanor and daughterof their sister, Mary NobleSpoor. Deborah’s piece is arti-fact No. 1982.129.2 in the muse-um’s collection.

Deborah’s sampler was madeon homespun linen. In the 1800s,pioneer women made clothes for

their families. They used thelarger wool wheels to spin woolinto yarn and the smaller flaxwheels to either spin flax intothread or wool into yarn. Beforethey could start spinning yarn,families needed to raise thesheep and shear wool from theanimals. Fibers from the flaxplant could also be used forcloth-making, and that meantgrowing flax in the fields, har-vesting the crop and extractingflax fibers from the stalks forspinning. Cloth made from flaxis called linen.

Deborah’s paternal grandfa-ther, David Noble, was born in1734 in Ireland, according to the“History of Warren County,” byH.P. Smith (1885). His parentswere Archibald and Eleanor No-ble, and, as a widower, he movedhis four sons and three daugh-ters to New York City in 1795.There, along with eldest son

Archibald, he earned a living asa stone and brick mason. TheNoble family heeded John Thur-man’s call to settle the ThurmanPatent and moved to the Adiron-dack region in 1800, buying 400acres, split equally among thefour sons (Archibald, Edward,William and John). They erectedlog buildings near Beaver Brook.David Noble died on July 10,1807 while visiting his eldestdaughter, Jane Noble Empey, inArlington, Vt.

Deborah’s father, Archibald,was listed in Smith’s history asan assessor for the town ofJohnsburg in 1807 and town su-pervisor from 1829 to 1832. Herbrother, David (born July 11,1804), supplied the family histo-ry for Smith’s book and waspostmaster of Wevertown at thetime. In 1833, he moved 3 milesfrom the family home to Wever-town (spelled “Weavertown” inthe 1800s) after the tannery wasbuilt. He opened a store there in1844.

Tanneries shaped the earlyhistory of north Warren Countyand communities like Wever-town, especially in the landmarkyear of 1833. It was the year Deb-orah Noble created her now-fa-mous needlepoint sampler, ayear that saw the beginning ofmore than 50 years of prosperityat the Weavertown Tannery.Smith reported that the tannerywas to close in the fall of 1885“because of the scarcity, and dis-tance from headquarters, of[hemlock] bark.”

This needlepoint sampler is,like the attic window in the 11-window house that adorns it, awindow to the past. And wemust thank little Deborah Noblefor leaving it behind.

Hester’s History (cont.)I believe Helene is now living in West

Glens Falls, with her husband, LeonNewton.(Both have passed away sincethis writing). Mary who was her baby sis-ter. later married Joseph Stone and theywent west somewhere. I have one uncleyet alive who I believe is about 95 yearsold; and living in Ohio with his son andhis son's wife, Uncle Scott Russell. He hadone son, Henry who married VirginiaGalusha and later they separated. Henrymarried another woman whom I nevergot acquainted with. She died within thelast two years, I believe.

As I recall my childhood was a happytime, as a rule. We children loved to be inour farm home and play with our calvesand lambs. We even led the colts in ourlong shed, when it was too cold in winterto play outside, we, as teenagers, didquite a bit to take care of the cattle andsheep. We used to teach the calves to lead.At one time my twin sister claimed a biglamb and I a big calf, which we taught todrive.

Enjoy each and every day.

grant. In order to grant an extension, thestate wants to see “substantial progress” onthe project, project coordinator Kelly Nesslesaid.

Compounding the situation, the plan hasgone through an evolution of sorts since itwas first conceived. And the state must ap-prove changes to the original proposal.Skateboard parks are no longer in vogue.And the prospect of marshaling a sufficientnumber of volunteers to build a woodenplayground apparatus loomed as a dauntingtask, Nessle said.

Tuesday, the board wrangled with thequestion of how to proceed with the project,what to include in the project, or whether theproject should proceed at all.

Nessle and Ovitt made an impassionedpresentation in an effort to get the projectmoving forward.

In place of a skateboard park, Ovitt, a for-mer state forest ranger, shared a vision of a3-kilometer “hardened single track” trailsuitable for biking and hiking that wouldlink the North Creek Train Depot, Town Halland Ski Bowl Park and along the way inter-sect with several established hiking trails toprovide a network linking the hamlet ofNorth Creek with thousands of acres of pris-

tine wilderness including Gore.Jeff Palka, owner of The Gear Source cy-

cling shop, told the board that such a trailwould be the first of its kind in the North-east and described the trail system as akin tothose one might find at big ski resorts outwest such as Telluride.

“Cyclers from all over would come herefor that,” Palka said. “They could actuallystart right in town. It would be unique.”

Ovitt said the trail network would be ide-al for Nordic skiing in the winter and wouldprovide year-round benefit.

Town Board members seemed enthusiasticabout the proposal. Yet there was one majorissue to resolve. Councilman Arnold Stevensframed the issue succinctly.

“To me it’s a simple thing,” Stevens said.“We have a project. Do we have the money?”

Nessle told the board that the project wasa “steal of a deal,” and explained that for anet final investment of about $38,000 andsome sweat equity, the town could have im-provements to the park worth three timesthat amount.

“To me it’s a no-brainer,” Nessle said andurged the board to find a way to pay for theproject. About $25,000 has already beenidentified as available funding, Nessle re-minded the board. She urged them to consid-er taking out a bond anticipation note (BAN)so that the town could front the full cost of

the project. When the state reimbursed thetown, the town could pay off the note.

“Even if you did a BAN for $100,000,you’re only going to actually spend a thirdof that in the long term,” Nessle said.

Both Nessle and Councilman Peter Olesh-eski said ideally they’d like to see the townpush forward and complete the project byNovember. Olesheski said that if the projecthad to be broken up into phases and com-pleted over two years, he’d like to see theplayground be the first priority.

“The trail project is fantastic,” he said.“But it doesn’t need to be top billing.”

The playground was part of the originalplan and the town should move forwardwith it and get it done, he added. Kids in thetown, including his own small children,could benefit from the playground as soonas this summer, he said.

Vanselow, however, initially said he’d liketo see the town save some of its resources forthe trail system, in case the state doesn’tgrant an extension.

“I’d like to move forward with the trail,”Vanselow said, adding that he’d like to be-lieve the town would find a way to pay forit even if the state grant didn’t cover the cost.He urged the town to move forward with thetrail while continuing to pursue a dialoguewith the state. Vanselow noted that even ifthe state did include the trail in the grant, re-imbursement of grant-eligible expensescould take up to six months, maybe longer.

Ninety minutes into the discussion, aftera protracted back-and-forth about the mer-

its of various approaches to accomplishingthe project, Olesheski presented a motion toproceed with the construction of the play-ground portion of the project and the firstphase of the trail loop this year and, assum-ing an extension from the state, complete theproject next year.

After much introspection, CouncilwomanKate Nightingale seconded the motion, rea-soning that if the state needed to see sub-stantial progress on the project in order togrant an extension, then the playgroundwould be the most attainable way to showsubstantial progress.

Ultimately, Vanselow agreed to supportthe motion, calling it an act of good faith.Stevens voted in favor as well, urging thetown to put as much “reasonable pressure”on the state as possible to get the projectchanges approved and an extension granted.

The board agreed to hold off on any deci-sion regarding a bond anticipation note,agreeing that details could be worked out asthe project moved forward.

Mother’s Day Tidbits and TriviaMother’s Day is a day devoted to celebrating mothers and expressing love for the special women in our lives. Mother’s Day can also be a time to share some trivia and tidbits with those special women who mean so much.

• Americans owe Mother’s Day to West Virginia native Anna Jarvis, who held a memorial for her mother two years after the latter’s death in 1905. After the memorial, Jarvis devoted her efforts to a campaign to make Mother’s Day a nationally recognized holiday. The hard work paid off in 1914 when the day was nationally recognized.

• Anna Jarvis and her sister, Ellsinore, eventually grew to detest what they felt Mother’s Day had become. The sisters felt the day had grown too commercialized, and spent their family inheritance campaigning against Mother’s Day.

• Ironically, Anna Jarvis never married and had no children.

• Rajo Devi Lohan of India is believed to be the world’s old-est new mother. Lohan gave birth to a baby girl at age 70 after receiving IVF treatment. Within two years of the child’s birth, reports indicated Lohan’s health was deteriorating.

• Lina Medina is considered to be the youngest to ever give birth. Medina delivered a 61/2-pound baby boy in Peru at the age of 5

Mother’s Day Tidbits and Triviayears and 7 months. Medina was believed to have a rare condition known as precocious puberty, which enabled her to conceive at such a young age.

• Ancient Egyptians had their own form of Mother’s Day by honoring the goddess Isis, who was known as the mother of pharaohs.

• The wife of Russian peasant Feodor Vassilyev is considered to be the record holder for birthing the most children. Mrs. Vassilyev is believed to have delivered 69 children between 1725 and 1765. These children were delivered in a total of 27 births, including 16 pairs of twins, seven sets of triplets and four sets of quadruplets. Though little is known about the births or Mrs. Vassilyev, 67 of the 69 children were said to have survived infancy.

• The bond between mother and child is not exclusive to the human race. Mother chimpanzees, for instance, are said to develop lifelong relationships withtheir children.

• Carnations are the fl owers most associated with Mother’s Day. White carnations are worn in the memory of deceased mothers, while red and pink carnations are worn for those mothers who are still alive.

MINERVA — Donkeyballwas the name of the game.

Donkey (noun) — A long-eared domesticated memberof the horse family, descend-ed from the African wild ass.Latin name: Equus asinus.

Donkey Basketball(noun) — An interesting(some might say bizarre)combination of donkeys, abasketball game, and peo-ple, often requiring pa-tience, occasional falls, abil-ity to play basketball underdifficult conditions, and hu-mility.

These two nouns werecombined on Fridayevening, April 27, in theMinerva Central Schoolgymnasium, for a time offun, laughs, and yes, humil-ity. There is little more hum-bling than trying to hang onto the smooth back of don-key with a mind of its ownwhile trying to shoot basketsin the presence of a largecrowd of laughing, pointing,and cheering fans. A lot ofpeople did indeed accom-plish this at the school thispast Friday, and it was a

great time with a greatcrowd. It was a fun thing toparticipate in, and it wascertainly a swell spectacle towitness.

This successful event wassponsored by the MinervaCentral School Class of 2013.In fact, MCS Juniors didn’tjust organize the fun — theyparticipated in it, opposingthe MCS Seniors in a no-holds-barred (almost) con-test to complete the evening.The first game was equallycut-throat, involving a bat-tle between MCS faculty andmembers of the MinervaVolunteer Fire Departmentand Rescue Squad. Thewhole evening was, in aword, intense and fun.

Provided by Green Moun-tain Donkeyball of Danby,Vt., the donkeys at MinervaCentral School were politeand thoughtful, at least mostof the time. According to alengthy definition found viaGoogle, donkeys have astrong sense of self-preser-vation, with can sometimesbe regarded as stubborn-ness. Some of this stubborn-ness was witnessed on Fri-day evening. Lynn Green, arider for both the fire de-

partment and MCS faculty,summed up the experience:“It was a lot of fun, withfine, gentle animals and agreat company to workwith.”

Along with the basketballgames, kids in the audiencewere welcomed to ride thedonkeys during the inter-mission period, which waspopular indeed. Thanks tothe Class of 2013 and theiradvisors, Candace Gereauand April Williams. And, agreat job of emceeing (withcolor commentary) on thefloor was done by MCS mathteacher Jed Armstrong.

MINERVA — The morning of Saturday,April 28 was chilly, no doubt about it — anot-so-thin film of ice could be found inmany places, including bits of containertrash along the Minerva roadsides.

On the other hand, blackflies werenowhere to be found, a situation thatproved to be most pleasant for the 25 or 30folks who were out in force along the road-sides for the town’s annual clean-up day.

Roadside finds were not especially spec-tacular — included were the usual mix ofbeer and wine containers, plastic trash, pa-per products, and stuff that had once beenimportant parts of vehicles but which hadcome flying off them (e.g. cracked hub-caps). But, along the way roadside clean-up folks (both kids and adults) found golf

balls, car hoods, piggy banks, a softball,and other more colorful items.

The bottom line is that residents cameout and pitched in to make the communitylook good.

Most pickers came to the pavilion ataround noon that day to enjoy hotdogs,hamburgers, chili, various salads, chipsand soda pop as part of the clean-up cele-bration.

Organizers thanked Betty LeMay andMike McSweeney for working on lunch forthe crowd and to Betty for organizing road-side assignments, plastic bags, etc.

They also thanked the folks who pre-pared lunchtime salads and shared themwith the hungry workers at the pavilion;and Dan Lynn for picking up trash-filledbags that the pickers thoughtfully leftalong Minerva’s roadsides, for the trip tothe transfer station.

Minerva residents clean up townTom Savarie and his daughter, Grace, do some trash clean-up on Longs Hill Road.

JOHNSBURG — Johnsburg Town Supervisor RonVanselow announced progress Tuesday on two fire protec-tion issues, bringing a measure of closure to uncertain situ-ations that have dragged on for weeks.

On one front, Vanselow told those assembled at the Tues-day, May 1 Town Board meeting that Bakers Mills Fire ChiefLewis Hitchcock came to his office that morning and toldVanselow that he would no longer refuse to answer emer-gency calls that require his trucks to go up roads whosegrades exceed 8 percent. Hitchcock explained that he basedhis refusal on erroneous information that he had receivedfrom a source “at the county” that he declined to name.Vanselow said that Hitchcock apologized for the confusion

caused by the misinformation.The question arose in connection with the proposed Ward

Hill Subdivision. The proposed plan included a private roadwhose grade approached but did not exceed 12 percent.Hitchcock spoke up at a recent Planning Board meeting andtold the board that his company would not respond to callsin the proposed subdivision if the road grade exceeded 8 per-cent.

The Planning Board and the project engineer both main-tained that the town code allows grades up to 12 percent. Yetthe lack of an assurance of fire protection would mean thePlanning Board would have difficulty approving projects inthe Bakers Mills Fire District with roads that exceed 8 per-cent, such as Ward Hill.

With the chief ’s acknowledgement, the matter of fire pro-tection for Ward Hill appears to be settled.

“The grade issue is resolved,” Vanselow said.

Vanselow also announced that he believes the town’s fireprotection gap in the wake of Wevertown Fire Department’sdecision to fold is resolved.

Vanselow told the Town Board that the North Creek firecommissioners met last week and agreed to extend the NorthCreek Fire District boundary to Wevertown. North CreekVolunteer Fire Company will respond to calls in a substan-tial portion of what was the Wevertown Fire District.Vanselow said that the Johnsburg Fire Department hasagreed to pick up the remaining area not included in thenewly configured North Creek Fire District.

To make the new fire district boundary changes official,the town must hold a public hearing to offer residents achance to comment on the plan.

The Town Board voted to schedule the required publichearing for 7 p.m., Tuesday, June 5 at the Wevertown Com-munity Center.
