New chief at EDC Warren County By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY Ñ Less than a month in his new position, new Warren County economic development czar Edward Bartholomew has pledged he will be giving rural and metropolitan communities equal attention. Just weeks ago, Bartholomew was named the new President of EDC Warren
County, the lead agency for economic and industrial development in the county. As of Jan. 1, this new combined position incorporates his role as Glens Falls Economic and Community Development director Ñ and until that time, he formally serves in both positions. In an interview this week, Bartholomew said heÕ d be concentrating on boosting the economies of the rural northern Warren County towns Ñ as well as Queensbury and the city of Glens Falls.

Bartholomew said heÕ s already met with community leaders in North Creek as well as executives of the SaratogaNorth Creek Railway, talking about how his agency might assist in developing freight traffic on the railroad. He added that he will be meeting soon with municipal leaders of the towns of Chester, Warrensburg, Thurman and Bolton, as well as the other northern
Farmers’ market safety concerns
In Thurman, former Town Supervisor John Haskell scored an apparent victory over incumbent Supervisor Evelyn Wood by a wide margin (153-77) to secure the Republican line, and in neighboring Warrensburg, incumbent town supervisor Kevin Geraghty topped former town supervisor Maynard Baker by a machine vote of 180 to 150 to be the official G.O.P. candidate. The results are not final, as there are up
to 48 absentee ballots to be counted in Warrensburg, and a fair number not yet tallied in Thurman as well. The two contests will be repeated in November, as Wood has secured the endorsement of the Democrat, Conservative and Independence parties, and Baker has secured an independent line.

Town Talk By Lynn Smith
744-3532 - mrs.butterfly-10@hotmail.com
Lecture on Foster’s music features debut of new work ‘Adirondack Suite’
The music of Stephen Foster is the topic of a talk by William Maher at 7 p.m. Thursday Sept. 19, at St. CeciliaÕ s Church, 3804 Main St. in Warrensburg. Sponsored by the Warrensburgh Historical Society, the talk is part of the townÕ s year-long bicentennial celebration. Although he only lived 38 years, Stephen Foster was known as the Ò father of American music,Ó primarily for his parlor and
minstrel music. Foster wrote over 200 songs; among his best known are “Oh! Susanna,” “Camptown Races,” and “Beautiful Dreamer. Ò Many of his compositions remain popular more than 150 years after he wrote them. Bill Maher and his wife retired to Warrensburg in 1999 from Brooklyn. Maher has long been a student of opera and other music, and he conducts a monthly Opera Club session at his home. In the Sept. 19 talk, he will play a sampling of FosterÕ s music and discuss his life and times. The program will open with Ò Fanfare for Hackensack,Ó a fanfare for three trumpets written by James Corriveau. This is part of a larger work entitled Adirondack Suite, still being developed by Corriveau, who teaches in the music department at Warrensburg High School. This will be the first public hearing of the fanfare, which uses key thematic material reminiscent of Stephen FosterÕ s music. Admission is free and open to the general public. Refreshments will be served. St. CeciliaÕ s Church is fully accessible. For more information, contact the Warrensburgh Historical Society at 623-2207.
Wbg. Chamber mixer scheduled
The Warrensburg Chamber of Commerce has scheduled a social mixer for 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday Sept. 26 at Lizzie Keays Restaurant on River St.. Music will be provided along with a cash bar, and hors dÕ oeuvres will be served. Admission is free. New and established businesses are invited. The Warrensburg Chamber is giving away a free 2014 membership. The mixer is the ChamberÕ s way of thanking all businesses in and around the Warrensburg area for their hard work in making our area a great place to live and visit, a chamber official said this week. Anyone who wishes to join the chamber and does so on the night of the mixer will benefit by getting 15 months of exposure on the organizationÕ s website. 46145

Burghers force Canajoharie into OT battle By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ The small Varsity squad of Warrensburg football players proved their grit Saturday, Sept. 7 as they forced powerful Canajoharie into overtime Ñ but the BurghersÕ energy apparently was then depleted, as the deeper lineup of Cougars stymied a Burgher drive, then scored a touchdown in five plays to win the game. Warrensburg Coach Mike Leonbruno said his players put considerable effort into the game, evidenced by the 8-7 lead they had earned going into the fourth quarter. Ò We played tough, but got tired at the end,Ó he said. Ò The boys played hard, and IÕ m proud of them.Ó He noted that 11 players played the 11 positions on the field Ñ offense, defense, kickoff returns and punt returns Ñ with no break; no substitutions except for a few injuries. Ò The effort those 11 guys made is pretty impressive,Ó he said. On offense, Malachi Prosser led the Burghers with 94 yards rushing, two touchdowns and a two-point conversion. Connor Scott ran for another 82 yards. WarrensburgÕ s offense racked up 330 yards to CanajoharieÕ s 217. The Burghers also tallied 14 first downs to the Cougars’ 8. Leonbruno said he was particularly happy with his teamÕ s de-
fensive effort in containing Canajoharie, which had a good season last year racking up points against Class C opponents, one step up from WarrensburgÕ s perennial D ranking. Ò Defensively, Trevor Baker and Dan Ackley played well for us,Ó Leonbruno said. Ò We had the lead in the 4th quarter, but we made a couple of mistakes Ñ we had chances to win, but didnÕ t capitalize.Ó Warrensburg committed four fumbles, resulting in two turnovers, and Canajoharie had none. Next week, the Burgher roster is likely to be a touch deeper, as three players who hadnÕ t tallied enough practices to play the opener will be on board. Warrensburg will need all the personnel it can muster. TheyÕ ll be facing Cambridge, a team known to be formidable, year after year. In their opener against powerhouse Greenwich on Saturday, Cambridge rushed for more than 350 yards, led by 6Õ 3Ó , 211-pound fullback Chris Warnke, backed up by Caleb Rowland, who tallied 122 yards and three touchdowns. But Leonbruno said his Burghers would be giving Cambridge a good fight. Ò We opened some eyes with the effort our players put out against Canajoharie,” he said. “It gave our guys some confidence, and hopefully weÕ ll start rolling with that.Ó
Young Burghers launch 2013 gridiron season WHITEHALL Ñ WarrensburgÕ s two youth football teams were defeated by their Whitehall counterparts in close and exciting contests Saturday, Sept. 7 that launched their 2013 season. The Burghers 5th & 6th grade team lost 22 to 18 in a hard-fought campaign, led by Jessie Griffin rushing for 103 yards and one touchdown, assisted by Hunter McKenna with 53 yards and one touchdown, as well as Maclane Baker with 31 yards and one touchdown. Their defense was anchored by strong play from Jackson Corriveau, Maclane Baker, Jackson Czuba, Jauron and Jessie Griffin, and Tommy Moore. Ò This team has worked extremely hard
for three weeks, giving up summer activities to represent their town and families,Ó coach Gary Baker said. Ò We had opportunities to win against Whitehall, but we ran a little short of time Ñ I could not ask for a better effort.Ó WarrensburgÕ s 3rd and 4th-grade team lost to Whitehall 34-28 in a suspenseful comeback effort. The Burgher offense was led by Dillion Winchell with 138 yards and three touchdowns, assisted by Daulton DeMarsh with four passes to Thomas Combs for 30 yards. Combs also scored an extra point. Defensive standouts were Tristin Hitchcock with eight tackles and one sack, plus Tanner McKenna who tallied six tackles.
Coach Mike Curtis said he was proud of his playerÕ s effort Saturday. Ò Being down 28-0 at the half was tough to swallow, but these kids fought hard the second half to accomplish a much more respectable score,Ó he said. Coach Gary Baker added his thoughts. Ò Whitehall always puts up a tough battle, and that remained true Saturday,Ó he said. Ò Both of our teams refused to give up until the final whistle.” WarrensburgÕ s 5th and 6th graders play next at home at 10 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 14 against Corinth at the Warrensburg Town Recreation field. The Burgher 3rd and 4th graders have a week off due to a bye.

Reform necessary for Adirondack economic success
T
he classification debate over the Essex Chain Lakes and other newly acquired Forest Preserve is necessary and important; however, a more focused debate over balancing economic development and land preservation in the Adirondack Park is lacking and sorely needed. We hope this latest debate leads to reform in the way the state manages economic development in the Adirondack Park. This is a unique place, and it deserves a unique management approach. The 40-year-old model simply isnÕ t working. Classification — a job for the Adirondack Park Agency (APA) — is only the first possible step in redefining economic development and its relation to the Forest Preserve. Then comes the unit management plan, a job for the state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). ThatÕ s where the real reform should be focused. From the state of New YorkÕ s perspective, the APA should classify the newly Essex Chain Lakes tract wilderness. After all, whatÕ s the point of having Forest Preserve if youÕ re not going to preserve its natural resources to the most pristine state possible? From the local perspective, the APA should classify the Essex Chain Lakes wild forest. After all, what the point of having a park if youÕ re not going to open it up to as many users as possible? Such is the dilemma the APA has been facing over the past several months. The APA should side with home rule. Small communities such as Newcomb, Minerva, Indian Lake, Long Lake and North Hudson need an economic boost if theyÕ re going to survive. With tourism alone, Newcomb will never become the boom town it was when the National Lead mine was in full operation. But thatÕ s not the point. People in Newcomb just want to be able to stay there and make a living. And thatÕ s not too much to ask. The future of the Adirondack Park is in the hands of the state government, especially as it buys new land for the Forest Preserve and classifies it for specific uses. We’re now at a critical point where a decision needs to be made about classifying the Essex Chain Lakes tract. If the Essex Chain Lakes becomes wild forest Ñ opening the land up to a myriad of uses, such as mountain biking, motor boating and snowmobiling — it would increase the traffic in communities near the property. So will wilderness, but there would most likely be fewer tourists with the limited access. Still, without infrastructure additions Ñ such as beds and restaurants Ñ those communities would not be able to take advantage of this new opportunity no matter
the classification. A wild forest classification will not be the magic bullet for economic development in the central Adirondacks. It will not solve the communitiesÕ problems or create as many jobs as people say it will. But it may help. When you donÕ t have much, every little bit helps. So why do communities continue to age and decline economically in the Adirondack Park while the state continues to buy new land? ItÕ s not because of those purchases; they are assets to the state. ItÕ s because of the way the state manages and regulates land Ñ public and private Ñ inside the Adirondack Park. Take the Essex Chain Lakes, for example. Eight APA commissioners and designees from three other state agencies Ñ DEC, Department of State, and Empire State Development Ñ make the decision of how to classify Forest Preserve. What happens next? The DEC takes the lead on a unit management plan, with help from the APA, and the DOS and ESD go home to Albany. Why? WeÕ ve said it before, and weÕ ll say it again — ESD and DOS should be part of the unit management planning process, not in a way that takes the DEC away from its primary state land management role, but in a way that creates economic opportunities in the communities that are impacted by the Forest Preserve. In this case, ESD and DOS should be working to find ways to boost economic development in the five towns surrounding the Essex Chain Lakes. If Gov. Cuomo really wants to make economic changes here in the Adirondack Park, he’ll direct ESD and DOS to stay and work with those communities after classification, whether itÕ s wilderness or wild forest. ThatÕ s a simple way to make reform. DonÕ t let them go home. Give them a more active role in managing the Park, not just sitting on the APA board. And they should be part of every unit management planning process, whether itÕ s a new acquisition or not. As we continue to define the Adirondack Park and move forward with this grand experiment, letÕ s learn from past mistakes and make changes accordingly. New York has failed to link communities and Forest Preserve in a way that best creates an atmosphere for sustainable economic development. Entrepreneurs with deep pockets arenÕ t waiting in the wings to swoop down into tiny towns such as Newcomb and build restaurants and hotels for the tourists who use the state land. Yet thatÕ s exactly whatÕ s needed. The Adirondack Park needs an economic management plan. And that can only happen if the governor gives other state agencies, such as ESD and DOS, the task.

Turning Back the Pages By Jean Hadden •100 years ago - Sept, 1913• Man escapes jaws of death
Pinned under an automobile in such a manner it had to be propped up to release him, but sustaining only bruises, on Sept. 29, 1913, Orville C. Smith had a miraculous escape from death, fatal or serious injury. A machine owned and driven by Robert Gibson struck a bicycle Smith was riding from his grocery store to his home on 122 Bay Street, Glens Falls, and threw him under the wheels of the car. Leaving work at his store at 6:30 oÕ clock, Smith was proceeding up Bay Street and Gibson was coming down the street. When the former neared the corner of Maple St. he thought Gibson intended to turn down that street and in order to avoid the auto he turned to the left. The autoist, however, had no intention of going down Maple Street and turned to the right. The result was that the automobile and bicycle met in a head on collision. Smith was thrown under the machine which was going slowly and the driver soon brought it to a stop and with the aid of several bystanders he went to the grocerÕ s assistance, but the latter was pinned under the car is such a manner that it required no little effort to release him. The car was lifted off the ground and Smith was placed in the machine and taken to the office of Dr. T.I. Henning where he was treated and he was than taken to his home. No bones were broken but he was badly bruised and complained of lameness in his back. Gibson and Smith both declared that the other was not at fault and it was stated that Gibson had done everything possible to aid the injured man. (Note: In 1907 in Massachusetts alone, 62
people were killed in automobile accidents and 640 were injured. In 1908 roads were poor and an American car cost a staggering $2,500, making them Ò a reckless personal extravagance,Ó putting ownership far out of the reach of the average citizen. Thanks to Henry Ford, the best was yet to come.)
Flamboyant aviator dies
Word has been received that well-known American circus performer Col. Samuel Franklin Cody, a naturalized Briton, has died. He is credited with the first aeroplane flight in the United Kingdom at Farnborough, Hants on Oct. 16, 1908 after working on airships and man-lifting kites. He had traveled for 50 feet above the grass in May, 1908 and later that year made the first recognized aeroplane flight over 1,390 feet. He was killed in a flying accident last month, August, 1913 and was given a military funeral and burial at Aldershot, Hampshire, England.
Stranger on our shore
John Butler Yeats, well-known Irish portrait painter, born in 1839, became the father in 1865 of William Butler Yeats who went on to be a world-famous Irish poet and dramatist. John possessed a brilliant mind and a remarkable talent which he passed on to his son. After leaving Dublin for London in 1907 John made his final move to New York and two years ago, in 1911, he met Jeanne Robert Foster, of Chestertown, N.Y. there when she was assistant editor of the Review of Reviews, a New York journal edited by Albert Shaw. Today they are close friends. (Note: Jeanne Robert Foster was an Adirondack poet and writer who late became the American editor of Transatlantic Review. She wrote stories and ballads about the lumberjack era in this area where she grew

History of homes to be explored
This Saturday, a group of people from across the county will be visiting several historic Thurman homesteads and hearing some stories about local folks from long ago and their exploits. On Sept. 14, the John Thurman Historical Society is hosting A Guided Jaunt into Thurman Homes and History. The event will start with lunch at 11:45 a.m., and then at 1 p.m. a caravan of cars will travel to the sites. The first stop will be The Amos Bowen Homestead, which may have been one of the stops on the Underground Railroad. Next up is The William J. Baker Farm where youÕ ll see how residents once lived without modern conveniences. Then at The Steve Wood Farm, people will hear how a young man was driven to commit an unthinkable crime and its consequences. The last stop on the tour will be The William and Chloe Pike Farm, which was built by Irish immigrants and has a story all its own. Space is limited Ñ call now to reserve a spot. With lunch, the tour is $20 per person and includes a copy of The Quarterly, which will detail all of the stops on the tour, or itÕ s $13 without the lunch. The tour concludes at about 3:45 p.m. Join the tour Ñ learn new aspects of the town you live in and make some new friends.
Success in school is spelled s-l-e-e-p!
Establishing a good bedtime routine can ensure your child gets the proper amount of sleep to be successful in school. An average child today has so many extra-curricular activities that often they often do not receive enough rest to perform well in other areas. It has been recommended by some leading pediatricians that school-aged children get between 10 and 12 hours of sleep per night. Bath time and reading a book to your child before bedtime calms the youngster down so that good sleep habits are established early.
Be prepared — it’s a wise idea up here
Here in Thurman, it seems like power outages are common and weÕ ve had our share of violent storms that have caused road washouts and cut families off from civilization. Few Thurman residents can forget the 2011 memorial Day flash floods that stranded as many as half of the residents in town. Also, hurricane season is here, and nearly every year a fierce storm associated with a hurricane passes through our area. Thus, it may be a good idea to stock up on emergency supplies for both your home and car. For the home you should have a battery-powered radio and a plentiful supply of flashlights, batteries, and water for every member of the household, as well as matches, first aid kit, and bread, crackers and dried fruit. For the car it is a good idea to have blankets, snack food, first aid kit, tools, and a bright colored flag to signal for help. One never knows when a disaster will strike and when it does supplies seem to fly off the store shelves so it is always a good idea to have these supplies on hand and check them regularly. Ñ

up. She took care of John Butler Yeats when he was an old man and showed him much kindness. He did a sketch of her in 1917 for a large oil painting that he never got around to beginning. He died in 1922 when he was 83 years old and she had him buried on the hill in the Foster family plot in the front of the Chestertown Cemetery, looking down upon Rte. 9, far from the land of his birth. )
From 1913 - Looking back at history
It was just 293 years ago, Sept. 16, 1620, that the Pilgrims set sail from Plymouth, England. (Note - In Centennial speeches made on Aug. 4, 1913 in Glens Falls, Jeremiah A. O’Leary, a prominent young lawyer, said: Ò Looking back, what did our forefathers find here? Was it the virgin forests, the skulking savage? Such things only increased their determination to go ahead. Let us hope that our country shall continue for another century and to forever propagate the immortal heritage of our fathers, the great principles of democracy and freedom, not only in this country but throughout the world.Ó )
News near and far
It is a sad commentary on our country that between 1900 and now (1913) there has been at least one race riot a year in the United States. (Note: Between 1910 and 1914, there were 347 lynchings recorded. There were 100 in 1915. Those were bleak days in American history.)
Build your own home
It was just five years ago, in 1908, that Richard Sears and Alvah C. Roebuck, owners of Sears and Roebuck & Co., who had established a Chicago mail order catalog in 1888, decided to offer to the public kits, with all parts and materials required, to be shipped to the customer by rail, truck or wagon, to build an entire house. All the customer has to do is to put the pieces and pre-cut lumber together. The kit includes 750 pounds of nails, screws, paint, gutters and sometimes 75 pages of instructions comes with
uncles are welcome to join and attend monthly meetings which occur on the second Tuesday of the month at the elementary school, at 8:15 a.m. and an additional session at 6:30 p.m..
Painless ways to help fund school’s needs
Box Tops, Labels for Education and CampbellÕ s soup labels are wonderful ways to help our school. Simply carefully clip them Ð ripped or torn labels are not accepted for redemption Ð then drop them off at the Thurman Town Hall, the elementary school lobby, Richards Library or at Direct Deposit located on Main St. in Warrensburg. A new way to help our school is registering your Tops grocery membership card and when you shop they will contribute 1 percent of your purchase back to Warrensburg Central School. As at the customer service desk how to accomplish this registration.
Events & activities in the hills
The Thurman Quilting Group holds their meetings every Monday from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the town hall. What better time to pick up a new hobby or re-learn an old one.

Filled boxes may be dropped off at the Thurman Town Hall during regular business hours. Thurman Connections Snowmobile Club holds their meetings on the last Friday of the month at their clubhouse on Bear Pond Road. Their next meeting will be held on Sept. 27 at 7 p.m. For details, contact Doug Needham at 623-9234. The Thurman Fall Farm Tour is to be held Saturday Oct. 12. Make sure to mark your calendars because this year it will only be a one-day event — that you surely won’t want to miss! Valley Road Maple Farm will be keeping the old tradition alive, by being open both Saturday and Sunday serving up their famous pancake breakfast. Thurman has so much to offer, so be sure to check out the many maple farms: Nettle Meadow Goat Farm with their gourmet cheeses, MartinÕ s Lumber with various activities throughout the day, visits with Lima the llama at Peru Llama Farm Ñ and be sure to bring the children to Whitefield’s Farm where they can see the turkeys Ñ and to Adirondack Ambiance art gallery, where exquisite art work is on display. At the dayÕ s end, be sure to stop by Toad Hill Maple Farm for a chicken barbecue at 4 p.m. Thurman residents planning a quilt show, routinely a part of the Thurman Fall Farm Tour, are now seeking quilts from decades past to be shown at the event from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. If you have an old quilt you would like displayed, contact Avis at 623-9921.

the kit. The customer has a choice of several floor plans. Prices for the kit start out as low as $237 for a four-room, one-story dwelling but with this particular model a bathroom is not included, although an outhouse can be purchased from their mail-order catalog. (Note: This program was discontinued in 1940 after selling more than 70,000 new homes in 32 successful years. Many of these well-built houses are still standing today.)
Yellow brick road
Yellow bricks are being used in Cambridge, N.Y. on West Main Street as paving on the dirt road for the traveling public. (Note - This road was so fine that the next year, in 1914, citizens could travel over this highway at 15 miles an hour. These bricks were paved over in 1960 to provide a smoother ride for motorists who desired to drive much faster. Today these 100-yearold clay bricks are visible in some places and are being preserved as they are considered to be a charming link to the past. Last month in Buffalo a red brick road was uncovered and because the bricks were in such good condition they were also allowed to stay and not be covered over with asphalt. Several years ago however, all the red bricks that once were used to pave the main street of Warrensburgh were dug up and disposed of. Several people collected them as souvenirs.)
News near and far
Charles and Elizabeth (Davis) Holland, have a charming little two-year-old daughter, Edna M. Holland, who was born in Glens Falls. (Note - Edna, born March 21, 1911 was later the widow of Hollis R. Ackley. She was 102 years old when she died Aug. 29, 2013 in Fort Edward. She had the unusual distinction of living in both 1913 and 2013.)

She had admitted thousands into the car show that engulfed Fort William Henry for the weekend. Ò This is crazy, itÕ s beyond belief,Ó she said watching the surging crowd move through the gate. Ò This is the craziest IÕ ve seen working at the car show for eight years.Ó Mark Ingleston, president of the sponsoring hot rod club Albany Rods & Kustoms, said the show was meeting expectations. Later, he said that about 10,000 people attended the paid show. The fields surrounding Ingleston and Brayman were filled with 1,500 vehicles with multilayered colorful paint jobs Ñ except one, and thatÕ s the vehicle that caught InglestonÕ s eye as most unique of the 2013 Nationals Ñ a 1959 Chevrolet Apache pickup. It’s owner and fabricator, filmmaker/sculptor/painter Chris Freeman of Hudson, had sanded down the body of his Apache to its bare steel, covered with specialty clear-coat. The carÕ s metal, with its pits and imperfections, bore FreemanÕ s hand-painted plain-white accents. Freeman had scavenged various body parts from other vehicles, like taillights from a 1958 Pontiac, and welded them into position with utilitarian craftsmanship. The bare, exposed springs in the ApacheÕ s bench seat added to its raw, brutish appearance. Ò I wanted people to look at the history contained in the metal Ñ and appreciate the holidays and events itÕ s been through,Ó said the artist about the truck, which he drag races. Ò IÕ m showing off the reality of the auto industry.Ó Last year, he garnered the Ò Best Builder AwardÓ at the Syracuse Nationals Hot Rod Show. Nearby, a crowd surrounded a meticulously restored 1958 Plymouth Belvedere hardtop, virtually identical to the vehicle featured in the 1983 classic horror movie Ò ChristineÓ the name
Ò All the way driving down here, we were turning peopleÕ s heads,Ó Taylor said. Ò TheyÕ d scream ‘Christine, Christine!’ wherever we went.Ó About 30 feet away was a customized 1937 Ford two-seater silver coupe with swooping lines that sat less than an inch off the pavement. ItÕ s owner, Bill Dawley of Waterford, Conn. watched dozens of people Ñ curious as to how it could drive on roads with such a radically lowered suspension Ñ snap photographs of it on their cell phones. Ò If I had a dollar for every picture taken of this car, I could have retired already,Ó Dawley said. The vintage coupeÕ s swooping narrow windows and graceful lines belied the power under the hood Ñ a 700-horsepower Chevy small block V-8. Dawley admitted it was a modified racer with a quick-change rear end. Dawley, who owns a body shop in Waterford, also brought two other vehicles to the Lake George show: a 1932 Ford Hi-Boy painted fluorescent antifreeze green, and a customized low-rider 1963 Ford Falcon compact convertible powered by a 302 V8. Decades ago, Dawley had presented the classic vehicle as a gift years ago to his daughter, Jillian, she recalled as she gazed at its lowered body and custom wheels. Ò Dad brought it home when I was 8 or 9 years old and said I could keep it,Ó she said. The young Jillian Dawley then helped customize it, including fabricating a shifter housing and doing some Bondo work, she explained as tires screeched on Canada Street and a cloud of smoke billowed from a hot-rodÕ s tires. The smoke from the burnout obscured vision and breathing for a city block. Just north of the gray cloud, James Coffey, of Watervliet, was behind the wheel of a rusty open-sided vehicle that was merely a frame, engine and wheels of a salvaged 1931 Chevy pickup. Coffey, an engineer by career, had scavenged parts and cobbled them together, he said. His air filter was crafted out of a Maxwell House coffee can and his radiator overflow tank was a Jim Beam whiskey bottle. Ò You donÕ t have to spend a fortune to have a good time,Ó Coffey said as he inched forward in the gridlock traffic.

Thurman broadband access project advances By Thom Randall

THURMAN Ñ High-speed Internet access for Thurman residents is moving forward this week, as bids to construct the first phase of a Ò white spaceÓ broadband transmission network are expected to be submitted to the town by a bid deadline of Friday, Sept. 13. Thurman Town Supervisor Evelyn Wood said this week that the bids will likely be opened at ThurmanÕ s next town board meeting, set for 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 17 Ñ and the project could be awarded at that time. She said that the construction of the first phase of the local broadband network could be completed this fall. This initial broadband extension project is expected to bring affordable high-speed Internet connection to 89 households in the north end of town on Valley Road, South Johnsburg Road, Mountain Road, as well as Barton Road, Don Potter Road, Combs Road and portions of South Garnet Lake Road. Wood said that three communications companies Ñ one each from Texas, Chestertown and the Capital Region Ñ have expressed interest in submitting a bid to construct the system. The broadband initiative, to be accomplished through a public-private partnership, has received national attention because it is a pilot project for a promising technology that is expected to change a lot of lives in rural areas of our nation. The broadband technology is envisioned as an innovative, cost-effective solution to extending broadband into hilly, remote rural areas. This Thurman white-space project, spearheaded by Evelyn Wood at the initial suggestion of Ava Ashendorff of Chestertown, has been described on National Public Radio, writ-
Fred Engelmann, of Rainmaker Network Services in Chestertown, is one of the bidders. He had provided the town with Ò buildoutÓ plans after analyzing data from the transmission tests that were conducted this spring and yielded very favorable results, showing fast and reliable data connections. The bid specifications were based on the buildout plans which detail the equipment and its required placement in order to deliver Internet wirelessly to the 89 homes. This effort is the first phase of a project to bring broadcast Internet service to virtually all households in the town of 1,200 people. To date, most all of Thurman Ñ like many other Adirondack towns Ñ has no broadband service except for satellite, which can be unreliable and expensive, with slow upload speeds. But by December, it is expected that the white-space transmitters will be providing the 89 Thurman households with reasonably priced, reliable high-speed Internet access. Wood said that a portion of the $200,000 grant would likely be bankrolling about half the cost of reception equipment to be installed at the households, bringing the cost for the receivers down from about $600 to $280 or so. The monthly access charge is expected to be about $45. The Ò white spaceÓ broadband service, unlike satellite and other technologies, would have no data cap and it wouldnÕ t throttle back transmission speed when a particular data threshold was reached. Tentative plans for Phase Two call for the service to be extended to Dippikill and Glen-Athol roads. In addition to Rainmaker Network Services, the companies expressing interest in the network construction so far, Wood said, have been Schupps Line Construction of Albany and CDC News Construction Data of Austin, Texas.

Wbg. Farmers’ Market safety issues raised — and refuted By Thom Randall

Ò Considering all the precautionary measures weÕ ve taken, that area of the roadway is now safer than it is at any other time of the week or the year,Ó Whalen said. Ò WeÕ ve gone above and beyond in addressing the safety issue.Ó She added that the riverside park that she and other members of the Warrensburgh Beautification created drew a good number of people to the market due to the siteÕ s ambiance. Ò Situating the market in the riverfront park was to increase awareness to the natural resources in our community,Ó she said. Ò How blessed we are to have the Schroon River running through our town, and the market has brought attention to it,Ó she said.

crease in patrons,Ó she said. The suggested recreation field site, she said, posed access problems, particularly for older market patrons, as the pavilion is on a hill, and itÕ s a fair distance from a limited amount of parking. “Our vendors don’t want to be on Main Street or at the recreation field,” she said, noting that the sports events held on the fields surrounding the pavilion would conflict with the market operations. She said that thousands of market patrons are accustomed to the present market location, and they might not patronize it if it were relocated. She said that a recent survey she conducted indicated that both vendors and shoppers wanted the market to stay on River Street. Ò If our market moves, our vendors are not likely to move with us Ñ we likely would not have a market at all,Ó she said.
Whalen continued that if any pedestrian safety problem indeed had occurred in the past at the riverside site, it could have been avoided by more vigilant road patrols in the primarily residential area. Geraghty said that one potential alternate site might be the former Econo-Quik gas station lot, now in use temporarily for Warrensburg Health Center employees during the new centerÕ s construction, but likely empty again by next summer. But Geraghty added that the town board would be collaborating with Whalen and her associates rather than mandating a relocation. Ò We all think having it along the river is pleasant, but we do have continuing concerns about safety,Ó he said. Ò WeÕ ll be talking with the Beautification members to see what we can do together.Ó

Primaries
from page 1 Wood said that although the vote Tuesday night showed a large majority for her opponent, November could have a far different outcome. “Only half of the Republican voters turned out,Ó she said. She added that her support was strong throughout the entire electorate, and in November the independents and Democrats would be casting their votes primarily for her. Ò When everyone can vote, a different story will unfold,Ó she said. Wood said she was undeterred in her effort to be re-elected. Ò WeÕ re carrying on, moving into the next phase of the election cycle,Ó she continued. Haskell said he was pleased with the results, and he thanked local citizens whoÕ d campaigned hard for him as well as two town board candidates who also called for change in town government Ñ Daniel Smith and Mike Eddy. They also scored apparent victories. Smith came out on top with 188 votes, Eddy received 145 votes, and incumbent Charles Bills was last with 88. Haskell said that his win Ñ and the victories Ñ indicated the voters wanted a town board that was responsive to their will. Ò When the people give you a directive, you follow through with their wishes, even when you donÕ t agree with them,Ó he said. Haskell, Eddy and Smith announced their candidacies early this year after the town board cut funding for the local ambulance squad and eliminated curbside garbage collection, which the board said was necessary to avoid huge tax increases. These issues prompted a record number of local residents to attend town meetings, and most all voicing opinions disagreed with the boardÕ s actions. Haskell said Tuesday night that if he is elected, he would be exploring the option of restoring funding for both. Haskell’s ability to assume office, if elected, has not yet been settled. Haskell was removed from his supervisor post after his 2008 conviction for Defrauding the Government, a felony. Wood has contended that Haskell is unable to hold office because of that conviction, and she has said she would challenge his ability to do so, if necessary. Legal experts are divided on the issue. Haskell said Tuesday he has consult-

Ò The people of Thurman are looking for a change, and I hope we can do it for them,Ó he said. Ò The board is not listening to the concerns of the people,Ó Eddy said. Ò This is a matter of getting funding for the hometown ambulance squad back and getting the heart back in Thurman.Ó In Lake George, newcomer Nancy Stannard secured a spot on the Republican line, edging out former county Public Works chief Fred Austin, while incumbent Vinnie Crocitto came out on top with a comfortable margin in the threeway vote for two board seats. The vote tally was 286 for Crocitto, 193 for Stannard and 173 for Austin. The primary results could change as 46 absentee ballots remain to be counted. All three will be on the ballot in November regardless, as Austin has secured an Independence Party endorsement. TheyÕ ll be joined by Kevin J. Mulcahy, an independent candidate for the seat. Crocitto said he was pleased with the vote. “I’m definitely here to listen to the people, and involve the community in the decisionmaking,Ó he said. Stannard said that her campaign issues were well received by the voters: making sure the county and state pay their fair share of curbing invasive species in Lake George, and that the town repairs deteriorating infrastructure, while avoiding purchase of more property. Ò IÕ m looking forward to November, she said. In Queensbury, incumbent Republican county at-large supervisors Mark Westcott and Matthew Sokol led a five-way race for four Republican positions. Westcott, a political iconoclast who has challenged the airport runway extension and other county expenditures, won 1,000 votes, the most in the field. Sokol followed with 901, Douglas N. Beaty had 812, Rachel Seeber got 811 and Queensbury Town Supervisor Ron Montesi was last with 761. Because of multiple endorsements, all will be back in November, joined by incumbents David Strainer, (Dem., Cons.), and Bill Mason (Dem., Cons.) as well as W.

EDC Warren Co. to go public
Along with this change in leadership, EDC Warren County is converting from a private corporation to a public entity. In the past, such private economic development corporations were seen as a effective, legal way to convey grants and loans to private firms while skirting laws prohibiting government from benefiting private entities. Bartholomew said that the new public structure of EDC Warren County will help avoid potential legal concerns Ñ as well as issues with the state Comptroller’s office. Ò Since weÕ re funded with public money, we need to be accountable and have things transparent,Ó he said, noting that going forward, EDC Warren County will have elected officials on the agencyÕ s board of directors, and meeting minutes will be posted online.
