Lock and
Dam trail
in limbo
By MEGAN ULRICH
Express News Staff
At the September Town
of Webb Board meeting, the
state of the path from Green
Bridge into Lock and Dam
was discussed briefly. There
are tire tracks and a broken
culvert on the well-used path,
which is NYS land.
The Town of Webb obtained a conditional use permit during the dam construction which requires it to restore the trail to its previous
state. What is unclear is
whether the damage was
caused by the town during its
use of the trail or not.

Swick and wife Danielle have traveled to
Mexico in the past to assist in this project.
There are over 10,000 orphans living on

PAUL SMITHS — The
nearly 80 town, county, and
state officials at a recent conference on road salt agree immediate action should be
taken to reduce its use.
So they formed a committee: The Road Salt Alternative
Working Group.
The group will also examine rights-of-way to see
where the tree canopy could
be thinned to allow more sun

• The Regents are supposed to have a vote this
month that will likely change
graduation requirements in the
future allowing a 4+1 model
of Regents requirement for
graduation. This would allow
alternate paths to achieve the
receipt of a diploma instead of
the currently required five
Regents exams. Details are
limited but it sounds like they
are beginning to hear the need
to move away from a finite
cookie cutter model.

DEC, police enforcing hunting laws
By MEGAN ULRICH
Express News Staff
The Town of Webb and
the surrounding areas are
popular with hunters. There
is an abundance of wildlife
and state land in Webb, and it
is frequented by hunters. The
area is also frequented by
outdoor enthusiasts including
hikers, bikers, walkers,
boaters and many more folks
just enjoying the Adirondack
Mountains in the fall. To
keep the outdoors safe for
everyone, there are laws regulating hunting.
The area has some restricted areas where hunting
is not allowed, including the
area bounded by Route 28
from Old Forge to Inlet and
by South Shore Road from
Inlet to Old Forge. These
areas are protected by the
Environmental Conservation
Law.
Other areas fall under
town laws and local ordinances, as well as land that is
posted by owners. Hunting is
also prohibited in the area
along Big Moose Lake;
"from Judson Rd. to Higby
Rd. to Big Moose Rd. to
Martin Rd. and along it to its
eastern end, then to the lake
shore and back (beginning
westerly) along the shore to
the Herkimer-Hamilton
County line and along it to
Judson Rd.," according to
www.dec.ny.gov.
There were two recent
incidents that involved
hunters being arrested for violating hunting laws in the
area.
On Saturday, Sept. 27,
Ross Newkirk, 28, of East
Aurora, was arrested near
Twin Ponds, in the vicinity
of South Shore Road in Old
Forge.
He answered charges in
the Town of Webb Court before the Honorable John
Graham, including taking of
a deer on posted property,
untagged deer, and shooting
a bow within 150 feet of a
dwelling.
He was fined $1,400.
With him was Oliver
Newkirk, 34, also of East
Aurora, was charged with
hunting on posted property.
The next day, Paul
Kentris, 50, was apprehended near the Northeastern
Loggers' Assoc. building on
Route 28 in Old Forge.
The same charges applied, with the exception of
the untagged deer charge,
and he was fined $1,100. The
animals in both instances

were given to the county
venison donation program.
The NYSDEC handled
the arrests with assistance
from the Town of Webb
Police. Suspension of hunting licenses in such matters
is at the discretion of the
DEC and that information
was not available at press
time.
With hunting season
under way, there are a few
things to 'bear' in mind that
help keep everyone safe.
There are rules and regulations regarding the discharge
of firearms set forth by the
New York State Department
of
Environmental
Conservation that must be
observed by hunters.
For example, it is against
the law to discharge a
firearm, crossbow or bow
within 500 feet, (firearm,)
250 feet, (crossbow) or 150
feet, (longbow) of a school,
playground, occupied factory
or church. The same distance
rules apply for dwellings,
farm buildings or any occupied structure, unless it is
owned or leased by you, you
are an immediate family
member or have the owner's
permission. You may not discharge any weapon so that
the load passes over any part
of a public road or highway.
It is also illegal to hunt
wildlife while occupying a
motor vehicle or with the aid
of a vehicle's lights. It is
against the law to hunt on or
from any public road, as
well. You may not hunt
wildlife with a weapon that is
automatic or is equipped
with a silencing device.
Baiting animals and
using artificial lighting when
hunting deer and bear, including lasers, is illegal.
Hunters must display
back tags in the middle of
their back while hunting,
with the exception of the
Northern Zone and the
Catskill Park.
"Hunting is a safe,
healthy outdoor activity and
people who hunt can keep
hunting safe by following the
primary safe gun handling
rules. Handle every gun is
though it is loaded. Always
point your gun in a safe direction. Be sure you have
positively identified the target and there is safe background if you do shoot," says
Stephen Litwhiler of the
NYS DEC.
There are rules regarding
possession of firearms and
crossbows and laws regarding the transport of weapons.
These are clearly outlined,
along with hunter safety
guidelines and access to safety courses, on the DEC website at www.dec.ny.gov. J

Williams
Adrienne Williams
loved reading from a young
age and knew the power of
knowledge, according to
her mother Elaine Williams.
The 2002 Town of
Webb School graduate died
in a 2003 car accident, but
her memory is kept alive
every day by her family.
To commemorate Nov.
16, what would have been
Adrienne's 30th birthday,
her family wishes to donate 30 children's books to
the library of the school
Adrienne loved so much.
"Adrienne loved growing up in a small community and realized after going
away to college how lucky
she really was to be able to
receive such a great education by going to a small
school," says Williams.
She says her daughter
most loved her Irish heritage, playing sports, the
company of her friends and
family and laughing.
The Webb School
Library will be hosting a
book fair from today
through Oct. 16 during
school hours and from 6:308 p.m. on Oct. 15. Family
and friends wishing to donate a favorite elementary
level book or make a monetary donation may contact
Elaine Williams at (315)

Roy Tracy is graceful behind a bar. Things move fluidly; he makes tending bar an
art.
The 28-year-old has been
in the service industry since
the age of 16; first as a
busser, then a server.
"But that didn't last very
long, because I was quickly
promoted to being on the
bar," he laughs, at 19 he
began bar tending
Tracy is a graduate student and dancer that has
crafted drinks in his hometown of Old Forge, as well as
in New York City, Rochester
and Chicago. He enjoys his
work for several reasons, one
being the control factor of
being a barkeep. He tends
bar at Sisters Bistro, in the
heart of Old Forge.
"I like to organize, orchestrate and delegate. I like
to know what's going on in
the restaurant and I enjoy
being a part of the dining and
bar experience, and being behind the bar allows me to do
that," he says.
Inventing drinks is also a
favorite part of his profession. The Home Sweet
Home, for instance, is a special concoction of Southern
Comfort,
grapefruit,
Absolute Citron and maple
syrup. It's shaken and served
up in a cocktail glass, "With
a slight dash of remorse,"
says Tracy of his creation.

Roy Tracy has been tending bar since he was 19 years old. He
currently works at Sisters Bistro.
One of his favorite,
standby drinks to make, and
one that he is always proud
of, is a margarita because, he
says, it's always tasty and refreshing. His least favorite
are shots because of dealing
with the small glasses with
his large hands and because
they aren't as fun to create,
he says.
He enjoys getting to
know his clientele and being
able to cater cocktails, wine

"It gives me an opportunity to play with my cocktail

TOW students take a stand against bullying
By MEGAN ULRICH
Express News Staff
On Monday, Oct. 6, the
eighth grade class at Town of
Webb School wore blue shirts
to help stop bullying and
cyber bulling as a part of the
World Day of Bullying
Prevention. "They created
posters to advertise this event,
and they also took a stand.
During computer class, the
students participated in a
very unique pledge to stop
cyber bullying and bullying
by changing their computer
backgrounds to aid this cause.
Many other students from different grades, along with faculty and staff, showed their
support of the cause as well,"
said TOW UFSD teacher
Megan Pfeifer.
According to nobullying.com, over 3.2 million
school aged children are the
victims of bullying each year.
The web site, www.bullyingstatistics.com states that
bullying is responsible for approximately 4,400 deaths
each year. The site also says
that 14 percent of bullying

victims have considered suicide, with almost seven percent actually attempting suicide. Other affects of bullying
include isolation, depression,
poor academic performance,
anger issues and anxiety, to
name a few.
Bullying takes many
forms; victims may be bullied
or harassed in person, via text
or computer, with notes, verbally or physically. By definition, bullying is, "Unwanted,
aggressive behavior among
school aged children that invokes a real or perceived
power imbalance. The behavior is repeated, or has the potential to be repeated, over
time,"

At TOW UFSD there are confidential bullying report forms that can be
filled out by a victim of bullying or a witness to bullying. There are also
counselors, teachers, faculty and administration available to assist a student with issues.
With technology playing
such a large role in students'
lives, cyber bullying has become a real issue. This form
of bullying takes place over
electronics, whether by email,
text, social media sites and
chat. Mean messages, rumorspreading embarrassing photos and tampering with profiles are some of the ways students are bullied. In 2011, a
Youth
Risk
Behavior
Surveillance Survey found
that 16 percent of high school
students had been electronically bullied in the prior year.
With phones, laptops and
Keyes Pancake House
& Restaurant
tablets in students' hands at
any given time of the day or
night, whether in school or at
home, bullies have a direct
route to their victims. Studies
show that students that are or
have been cyber bullied are
more likely to suffer health
problems, be truant, have low
self esteem and may be more
likely to use alcohol or drugs.
Help is available and
schools and other organizations have taken a stand
against bullying. At TOW
UFSD there are confidential
bullying report forms that can
be filled out by a victim of
bullying or a witness to bullying. There are also counselors,
teachers, faculty and administration available to assist a
student with issues. The simple act of helping another person out by not standing by
when bullying is happening
seems to be one of the most
direct ways to quash the behavior.
There are websites that
assist in recognizing bullying,
determining who is at risk and
help with anti-bullying strategies. Visit www.stopbullying.gov for more information.

The Town of Webb School Science Club blasts off
The Town of Webb
School Science Club was
started last year, and is a place
for any student in grade seven
through twelve who has a love
of science to learn more about
the subject, according to club
advisor Danielle Harmer.
Most recently club members took a trek over to Maple
Ridge to try out their own
rockets. The rockets were
made out of standard rocket
kits, but the students had to
use the directions and construct the rockets on their
own. The kits include a tube
of cardboard, wings made of
cardboard, a parachute, and an
engine that ignited when
charged. The students also had
the option of decorating their
rockets as well.
It doesn't stop at rocket
launches. Previously, the
club made marble mazes out
of paper, cardboard, and tape
to see who could make the
course that would have the
marble go down the slowest.
During Halloween last year
students constructed their
own "slime" essentially silly
putty out of household items.
Members have constructed
Rube Goldberg contraptions
in the past and have conduct-

To the editor
Mart Allen's column is
wonderful. From his 80
plus years of amassed wisdom he shares myriad topics with us that are funny,
touching, inspiring, thought
provoking. I love earning
from him about his forestry
career, his family life, his
interviews
with
Adirondackers deceased
and alive, his constant attempts to challenge himself, the Adirondack
Mountains, his animals and
military service.
His weekly column
proves his philosophy of reliable dedication to a commitment. Only surgery and
illness keeps him from
writing a column. As soon
as the Express arrives, we
hope to find Mart's column.
He is a survivor, who
has earned and deserves respect.
Every
June,
the
Express publishes their interviews with graduation
Town of Webb School
Seniors. In recent separate
years, two of Mart's grandsons publicly stated in their
interview that the person
who most positively affected their lives is grandpa
Mart Allen.
I think that speaks volumes about the kind of person Mart is.
Stay strong and keep
on sharing your views of
life with us Mart, please.

To the editor
I wish to correct an
error in the meeting notice
for The Friends of the Old
Forge Library.
The location should
have read “the Judith
Lowenstein
Cohen
Memorial wing of the Old
Forge Library.”
The Cohen home was
built by Moses A. Cohen
and later donated to the library by A. Richard and
Judith Cohen, and the family was instrumental in the
construction of the addition
that bears his Judith’s
name.
We are sorry for the
confusion and any distress
to the family of Muriel
Cohen.
My apologies for the

The state of the floats
The kickoff to the Columbus Day Celebration for the Town of Webb School is always the parade of floats down Main Street. Students in grades seven through 12
gather into secret locations to assemble floats for the year's chosen theme, and unveil them on the Friday of the long weekend. This year, each class chose a state to represent. From the heart of Texas to the Big Apple their creativity and humor shined through. Once the floats hit North Street, they became fodder for the celebratory bonfire.
Photos by Meg Ulrich
Second place for the float
competition goes to the
Freshman Class of Texans.
The New York float by the
eighth grade took third place in
the competition.
Bourbon Street and the bayou
were the Sophomore Class'
representations of Louisiana.
The Class of 2015 sailed their
ways to Maine on their float.

Local officials at the third
Adirondack Winter Road
Maintenance Conference may
have been alarmed to hear
road salt is accumulating in
the waters of the Adirondack
Park.
That is according to new
research unveiled at the Sept.
16 conference at Paul Smith's
College here.
Problems with road salt
began to be recognized in the
Adirondacks in the mid-1970s
and early 1980s, with the filing of lawsuits claiming water
wells in the Watertown area
were polluted by salt.
David Wieder of the
Colorado Department of
Transportation told the group
his state has replaced sodium
chloride with liquid magne-
sium chloride, which has reduced damage to the environment while keeping roads safe
in similar winter conditions.
DOT IS ON IT
The NYS DOT tried a
product called MAGic, a combination of magnesium chloride and a grain by-product, in
the early 2000s. It subsequently updated its snow and ice
control guidelines, in 2006.
However, sodium chloride
continues to be its primary deicer.
The DOT started an
Adirondack Salt Pilot
Program following release of
the 2010 report, "Review of
Effects and Costs of Road Deicing with Recommendations
for Winter Road Management
in the Adirondack Park," prepared by Dan Kelting and
Corey Laxson of the
Adirondack
Watershed
Institute.
The two-year pilot program is experimenting with
reduced salt application on

Pilot Program to the

Park Ecology Committee Oct.
9.
WORK TOGETHER
AdkAction.org and the
Adirondack Council, which
sponsored the conference at
Paul Smith's College, would
like the state, county, and municipal agencies involved in
winter road maintenance to
work together to reduce the
use of sodium chloride.
The volunteer working
group is expected to include
members of local and state
highway departments, environmental groups, local elected officials, and scientists.
"Everyone agreed that we
already know enough about
the damage road salt is doing
to take action to reduce our
use of it," said Rocci Aguirre,
conservation director of the
Adirondack Council.
Participants also agreed
there is not enough data on the
cost of current practices, notably the destruction of vehicles and infrastructure by salt
and the comparative cost of
alternative strategies.
IT'S BUILDING UP
Research from the Cary
Institute for Ecosystem
Studies in Millbrook and the
Adirondack
Watershed
Institute at Paul Smith's
College was also presented.
Both found sodium chloride
builds up in the environment.
"Our research clearly
shows road salt is accumulating in our watersheds," said
Adirondack
Watershed
Institute Executive Director
Dan Kelting. "These results
strongly suggest that our
groundwater is being contaminated with road salt..."
A five-year plan to adopt
new technologies was suggested, including additional
test runs to try techniques
used elsewhere, such as the
use of liquid magnesium chloride in place of sodium chloride, the technique used successfully by Colorado.
"We made a lot of
progress," said Lee Keet of
AdkAction.org, a co-sponsor
of the conference. "We all
agreed to work cooperatively
toward solutions that keep
roads safe, while protecting
water from contamination."

education for Tracy and has
given him skills he frequently utilizes.
"It has taught me to be
assertive and developed my
ability to multitask. I can
also carry a lot of things,"
says Tracy.
He also sites that his career behind the bar has developed his artistry as a
dancer because it is, in a
way, a performance.
"It incorporates art, dexterity, agility and physicality," he says.
Tracy looks forward to

his coworkers are like family
and he gets to meet fascinating people from all over. In
fact, while serving he landed
a two year modeling contract
with a major talent agent in
New York.
For all of his adult years,
Tracy has worked in the
service industry and he
wouldn't have it any other
way. He is a night person
and, he says, prefers the
night shift because generally
the palettes are more sophisticated, allowing him to
share more specialty drinks
and share more food pairing
ideas with patron. Not to say
he doesn't enjoy an afternoon
shift here and there, he says.
Working in a small town
is quite all right with this occasional big city dweller.

"I have less of a connection with my clientele in a
big city. In a small town setting I have more of a rapport
with my customers and learn
their preferences, allowing
me to be able to make recommendations for them. I like
that," says Tracy.
He sees his future, no
matter what it holds, with at
least one bar shift per week
and perhaps, later on, a bar
and restaurant of his own.
"I absolutely think that
through my professional career, I will always try to
blend in a shift a week for
my own sanity," he says.
Tracy is a local favorite
for his wit and candor, paired
with his knowledge of food,
wine and spirits. He makes
fixing a cocktail or garnishing a drink seem effortless
and fluid. What he does behind the bar is, no doubt, a
dance. J

Various businesses and restaurants
have been involved with the event
throughout the season. Showcases, live
music, tastings, demonstrations and
more could be found at participating art
walk sponsors.
Loretta Lepkowski's exhibit,
"Celebrating Family Farms of the Tug
Hill Region," opened at the Old Forge
Library on the evening of the final art
walk and will remain on display through
December. These works are a part of a
family farm series that is traveling
throughout the region, and they will be
sold when their journey is over.
Five Corners Cafe in Old Forge currently has Karra Clark Detrick's paintings on display and will continue to feature them through the fall.
Detrick, of Stroudsburg, Pa., was

SPORTS REPORTS BY DAVE CLARK
Girls varsity soccer
The girls' varsity soccer
team played two league games
this past week as they were
getting ready for the
Columbus Day Tournament.
Tuesday, Oct. 7, they traveled to Oriskany and lost 4-1
with Holly Kalil scoring the
only goal for Old Forge.
Madison Rice was very busy in
the goal as she made 23 saves.
Thursday, Oct. 9, the team
hosted ODY and had little
trouble with them as they
went on a scoring frenzy to
win the game, 8-0.
Maggie Queen opened the
scoring early in the first half
with a goal assisted by Allyson
Brosemer. Old Forge dominated the half, but that was the
only score of the first half. In
the second half, it was all Old
Forge and the girls did a great
job of finishing the play to
score seven goals in the half.
Queen added two more goals,
Chloe Barkauskas had one
goal and an assist, Kalil had a
goal and an assist, Lindsay
Payne had a goal, Ally Cooper
had a goal and an assist and
Brosemer had a goal on an assist from Madison Rice. Rice
played in the field for the first
time this year and Barkauskas
took her place in the goal. Rice
had a total of two saves and
Barkauskas had one save. In
all, Old Forge outshot ODY
39-4 and had a 9-0 advantage
in corner kicks. The ODY
goalie made 14 saves.
Boys modified
soccer
The boys' modified soccer
team continued its winning
ways this past week as they won
both games played at home.
Monday, Oct. 6, they defeated ODY 3-0. Calvin
Barkauskas had one goal,
Blake Green had a goal,
Charlie Uzdavinis had a goal
and an assist and Nolan Fenton
had one assist to lead the of-
fense. Jim Connell and Paul
Case divided the goaltending
duties to help in the shutout.
Wednesday, Oct. 8, they
hosted Remsen and may have
played their best game of the
season as they recorded an
easy 4-1 victory. Uzdavinis
dominated on offense as he
scored two goals and assisted
on the other two goals. One of
his goals came on a long direct
kick that was placed perfectly
past a helpless Ram goaltender.
Fenton and Austin Ludwig
scored one goal each and
Bradley Sexton had an assist.
Coach, Kevin Kress, was
happy with the hustling play
by Barkauskas and Nick
Olsen. Connell came out of the
goal to play in the field and
had a very good midfield
game. Also, David Ehrensbeck
and Dylan LaPorte had excellent defensive games.
The team has two away
games to play this week at
ODY and at West Canada and
that will finish their season.
Cross country
running
The boys' and girls' cross
country running team had one
meet this past week at
Sauquoit on Wednesday, Oct.
8. Other schools competing in
that meet were, Clinton,
Remsen, Dolgeville, Hamilton
and Mt. Markham.
Again, Old Forge did not
have a complete team for either the girls or boys and were
automatically defeated by any
complete team. Too many soccer teams were playing that
day which took away Coach,
Tim Leach's numbers.
In the boys competition,
Tyler Rudolph was the only

On Monday, Oct. 6, the

a strong ODY team in an important game for seeding purposes for sectional competition.
The game had all one could expect, except it did not have a
good ending for the Eskimos.
To open the scoring, Zach
McGough took a pass from Tyler
Fenton and slammed the ball into

came back to tie the game at the half.
To start the second half, McGough, again,
scored to give his team a short lived 2-1 lead,
ODY came back to tie and then win the game
on a corner kick.
The games statistics showed just how
close this game was. The total of shots and corner kicks came out exactly the same. The ODY
goalie made 13 saves and John Gaffney made
six saves showing a little advantage in the accuracy of Old Forge's shots over ODY's.
To open the special playoffs that the
league instituted for Division IV, Old Forge
hosted the Remsen Rams in a game played last
Wednesday, Oct. 8.
Both halves of this game had very similar
results. Old Forge outscored Remsen 2-1 in
each half. In the first half, it was ninth grader,
Tyler Kearns, brought up from the jayvee
squad to play in the line for a missing starter.
Kearns scored both goals in the half to give his
team the 2-1 halftime lead. Zach McGough assisted on one of the goals and Carter Lawrence
assisted on the second goal.
Old Forge had the better of the play in both
halves and in the second half, Cy Barkauskas
scored both goals to give his team a 4-2 victory. The two goals scored by Remsen, were the
first goals they scored on Gaffney in the three
games played between these two schools.
Old Forge ended up with a 20-9 advantage
in shots with Gaffney having three saves and
the Ram goaltender having to make eight
saves. J

Campers smile after five days of fun at Camp Abilities.
Camp Abilities participants have fun at Camp Nazareth
What started as a three
day camp experience for children who are blind and visually impaired turned into a full
week at Camp Nazareth in the
Adirondacks August 5-10.
From adaptive sports and
recreation, to tandem kayaking, special guests, and vision
rehabilitation therapy, it was a
transformative experience for
campers and counselor’s with
creative skills and friendships
that will last a lifetime.
Every morning started
with high spirit and a healthy
breakfast followed by a full
day of activities. Twenty-five
campers each with an individual counselor participated in
everything from swimming
and crafts to preparing meals
for dinner. This year camp
consisted of three teams,
Green known as the Green
Creepers, Purple aka The
Purple Panthers and Orange,
The Orange Squad. Team
leaders encouraged cheer and
motivation throughout each
day.
In the evening campers,
counselors, team leaders, staff
and volunteers gathered
around the Camp Nazareth
flag pole for “Care to Share.”
Campers would speak about
the day’s experiences and accomplishments.
Abby, “I went on the low
ropes for the first time.”
Jacob, “Today I went in a
Kayak with Sean or should I
say Justin Bieber?" (An inside
joke)
Ahmat Adam Djouma, a
16 year old student at Proctor
High School, participated in a
work experience at Matteson’s
Produce and Bakery on Rt. 28
near the camp. “I earned a
paycheck for the first time.”
Team Building and escaping a comfort zone is an important part of the camps’ experience. Judo Instruction by
Brown’s School of Judo and
Jujitsu built confidence and
balance. Inspirational speaker
and world-class athlete Cody
Colchado demonstrated techniques to throw a shot put and
discus
while
Andrew
Foxenberg coached running
and track. Each provided invaluable encouragement. Sean
Morelle a DJ known locally
as, Your Boy S-Dot led an
anti-bullying
seminar.
Campers, counselors and staff
together fought their fear of
heights on ropes courses and
rock climbing wall that was
over 20 feet high.
Counselors and team
leaders shared thoughts on
their Camp-Abilities-CABVI
experience. John Calabrese, a
Business Management major
at Suny PI said, “I’m, amazed
of what these kids, without
sight, have overcome and that
nothing is limited for them
with the right support and education.” Joe Scharf, a Sports
Management and Economics
major at Suny Cortland called
camp an “eye opener."
“My experience life
changing, and will definitely
be retuning next year as a
counselor.”
Special guests along with
CABVI’s Board of Directors
had an amazing time viewing,
first-hand, the experience
CABVI offered children who
are blind or visually impaired.
Andrew S. Fisher, Executive
Director of the Lavelle Fund
for the Blind, spent 2 days at
camp coming away highly impressed and full of ideas for
future
Camp-AbilitiesCABVI efforts. The godmother of the Camp Abilities
model, Dr. Lauren Lieberman,

that the camp “exceeded all of
my expectations for a second
year event.”
Camp Abilities-CABVI
could not have succeed without the generous support of
several groups--each deserving of special recognition.
CABVI employees raised
$10,492 during last January’s
Employee Campaign. The
Gibney Family Foundation,
and CABVI’s sponsors Rob
and Molly Whittaker, pur-
chased nearly all of the equipment required for camp.
Former employee Roger
Tibbitts made a generous donation that covered rental of
Camp Nazareth for the week.
The Utica Council for the
Blind raised over $1,000 by
participating in last May’s
Lions Journey for Sight while
a number of local Lions Clubs
and Lions Auxiliary groups
also contributed. The C.A.B
Foundation made a $1,000

ONE OAR SHORT
Okto liebe Zeit
Whereas the Irish celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, we
Germans make merry at
Oktoberfest.
Oktoberfest in Munich,
Germany is the largest party
in the world, lasting seventeen days and drawing six
By
million people from around
STAN
the globe. Seven million
ERNST
liters of beer are consumed
during the festival.
It all began when Crown Prince Ludwig,
later to become King Ludwig, married wholesome Princess Therese of SaxeHildburghausen on Oct. 12, 1810. What the
heck is a Saxe-Hildburghausen?
All of Munich was invited to the intemperate beer orgy which transpired in the field outside the city gates, thereafter known as
Theresienweise or Therese’s Meadow.
Contemporary locals refer to the event as
“Wiesn” because it’s much easier to pronounce
when you’re blotto. Gott sie Dank, because although I studied German for two years in high
school and four semesters at the good old
University of Maryland (who beat Syracuse in
football this year for the first time since
Ludwig was King), I never learned to pronounce a German word with more than one
syllable.
Anyhow, just as the Irish are compelled
by DNA to join in St. Patrick’s Day celebrations, I was obligated to participate in an
Oktoberfest. It turns out that our German pals
from Old Forge, we’ll inventively refer to
them Thor and Katja, had spotted the advertisement for the Oktobeerfest at that famous
Verona, New York German Biergarten known
as the Turning Stone Casino and Event
Center. The ad promised thirty-two breweries
offering unlimited samples of their products,
along with authentic German food served
continuously from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Okay, so
it’s not a seventeen day bacchanalia but I
could live with that since the entry fee was an
affordable thirty dollars per person. The best
part of the whole deal was that Wunderfrau
Katja volunteered to be our designated driver.
Her exalted designator entitled her to a costeffective ten dollar entry fee. I delightedly
slipped her the ten spot before we departed
Old Forge.
Never having visited Turning Stone, I
was amazed by the sprawling campus and
the hundreds if not thousands of cars populating the parking areas. After entering the
Events Center, we proceeded to the advanced ticket sales window to pick up our
pre-paid tickets. Thor and Katja’s tickets
were bestowed instantaneously. Of course,
Deb’s and mine had vanished from the face
of the earth. After an interminable beerlesss
ten minute delay, the accommodating Event
Center staff found our misplaced tickets and
escorted us into the pretend Biergarten. We
were each gifted four ounce mini-pints for
our beer sampling.
It was like Christmas morning to us expedient Germans. The huge auditorium was
ringed with brewery stalls crewed by obliging
frauleins decked out in German attire. Most of
the stalls housed brewery representatives who
seemed delighted to answer incoherent questions about the beers we were guzzling. We
were impressed by the competence and conviviality of the Event Center employees and
the brewery representatives. Throughout our
well-oiled tour of the cavernous Biergarten,
lederhosen bedecked Oom-pah bands played
traditional German folksongs like
Margaretville, Sweet Caroline and New York,
New York.
Holy cows and pigs, I haven’t mentioned
the food. There was a varied menu of timehonored German favorites, from big warm
pretzels and spicy mustard, to wienersnitchel
and sauerkraut sliders. The entire menu was
extraordinarily tasty. But in reality, the event
was about the beers. Our contingent decided
that we wouldn’t deplete our carrying capacity
tasting ciders and beers that contained fruits
and vegetables. I’m sorry kids, but beer is
water, sugar, hops, barely and/or wheat. And,
the more hops the better. I like my rice, pumpkins, blueberries, limes, oranges, old sweat
socks, whatever, on the side and not in my
beer. That left us with an abundance of traditional lagers, stouts and IPA’s to sample. I’m
not gonna lie, we drank our fill. We closed the
Biergarten down at 7:10 p.m.
However, Wunderfrau Katja’s designated
driver gig wasn’t over. TOW native, Thor, suggested that we tour a few historic taverns on
our ride back to Old Forge. Our first stop was
Van’s Tavern at the bottom of the hill in
Barneveld. As one Trip Advisor reviewer stated, “Van’s is simple, no frills, and cheap.” The
Saturday night crowd gathered around the
cozy bar was pleasant and subdued. Van’s was
a one and done.
Our second waylay, the Wigwam in
Forestport, was a whole different ballgame.
You know the Wigwam. It’s the roadhouse
with the aircraft tail sticking outta the roof.
The joint was jumping'. Exultant patrons were
enjoying excellent food and reasonably priced
adult beverages as they danced the night
away. One young lady liked us so much that
she performed an impromptu pole dance
around a ten inch cedar support pillar. She undoubtedly achieved an A in her pole dance
class. Okay, so I had to endure generic neocowboy music. Nobody cared what music
was playing; they were just having fun
bouncing around the dance floor. At one
point, a bus load of young ladies fresh from a
friend’s birthday party stopped in for a drink
and the place became really crazy. The pulsating throngs reminded me of a 1970s discotheque sans the disco ball. We enjoyed a
couple more rounds, an order of hot wings
and a boogie or two before we moseyed on to
waylay number three.
We stopped at Otter Lake Station to say hi
to beertender Ellen Drake. Ellen was as personable as ever. At one point, a large candle
toppled over from under the bar and everybody
looked accusingly in my direction. I honestly
have no idea what a large candle was doing
under the bar or what caused it to commit harikari. Regardless, one of these days I’ll replace
Ellen’s desecrated bar candle.
I gotta tell ya that it’s fortunate that I’m not
a dairy farmer. I couldn’t have gotten outta bed
Sunday morning at 5 a.m. to milk the cows. I
slept in until 6:30 a.m. and then lurched around
like a zombie for two hours. But I did my
Oktobeerfest thing like a worthy half deutcher.
The next commemoration is the end of
Ukrainian Daylight Savings Time on Oct. 26.
We half Ukrainians will be eating and imbibing large that day my friends. J

A LONG STORY SHORT
Random thoughts on politics
I am going to start by
saying I apologize to the
people I am sure will be offended by this missive. But I
have to get this off my chest.
I in no way am trying to
make political hay for either
of the two major parties. In
fact I think they are both infested with a bunch of unBy
scrupulous weasels and
MART
that’s why I am now regisALLEN
tered as an independent.
First of all I am, to put it
mildly, disgusted with family dynasties in
both state and federal politics. Please tell me
what significance does a name have to do
with a person’s qualifications for public office? It’s become so accepted by the general
public the talk show hosts are making jokes
about it. Millions may have laughed when
Chelsea Clinton delivered her baby recently
and comedians made jokes about her baby
being a future presidential candidate but I did
not. If I recall it’s not working out for North
Korea or Syria and it didn’t for Haiti either.
I for one would welcome some people on
the political scene I have never heard of before. People who have accomplished something on their own that benefited society. I
am not impressed necessarily by people’s
names, sex, race, ethnic background, notoriety or because they are rich. That said I
would vote for any in that list if I thought
they truly were the most qualified.
Instead candidates are being chosen by
demographics, not qualifications. Many people are no longer looking for the most qualified but someone who might be the best simply because they would fit some diversity
niche. The first of a particular religion, a
certain race, a particular region, sexual orientation, the list and offices is endless. We
all know the next step and that is going to be
the hue and cry for a woman but not just any
woman, the smartest one in the world.
I have no doubt there are many women
that are highly qualified, and I might add
honest as well. But there is only one who
based on pass events is likely to be ordained
simply because she is part of a political dynasty. Citizens of New York take the cake
when it comes to political demographics.
That’s why we had to settle for interlopers
from Massachusetts and Arkansas for two of
our senators. Isn’t it a shame out of the millions and millions of people in this state that
we did not have anyone as qualified as the
two who made it?
One good thing about dynasties is they
have a track record to peruse for those who
place more credence in their history than they
do in their words. I am thankful for that but it
does not help my cause when both party candidates come from dynasties. The biggest problem as I see it today is that an ever increasing
majority of voters have lost their moral compass. I am not the least bit worried in this time
and place of our country being overthrown by
outside influences. One very astute leader,
whose name escapes me now, also made a
statement to that effect and I agree that if and
when we ever fall it will come from within.
Perhaps at my age I should not be concerned, for in all probability I will not be
here to see it. But I do fret because I have
pride in my country and I hate the thought of
our history ever being compared to the rise
and fall of the Roman Empire. This country
is rapidly conforming to the infamous bread
and circuses the Romans leaders resorted to
in their last days.
I hate to think of being compared to the
little red hen racing around crying about the
sky falling but can’t help it when I hear the
opinions being expressed by students in premier Ivy League colleges. Recently when
many were questioned on who is the bigger
threat to world peace the US or ISIS the answer was the US. And that’s not the only thing
that worries me when I witness the answers.
It’s that not a one of the respondents would be
willing to defend their country militarily. And
we end up with leaders who loathe the military. We have seen it in both of the last two
Democratic presidents with one having even
put his convictions on the subject in writing.
Anyone who is stupid or enough of an ideologue not to admit that it’s the soldier not the
politician who defends their right to think the
way they do should never lead this country.
The thought for the week comes once
again from Thomas Sowell: If you have always believed that everyone should play by
the same rules and be judged by the same
standards, would have gotten you labeled a
radical 60 years ago, a liberal 30 years ago
and a racist today. J

OBITUARIES
Mary Diamond
September 16, 2014
Mary Diamond of Old Forge, passed away on
Sept. 16, after a brief illness at the Sunset
Nursing Home in Boonville.
Mary was born in Erie, Pa. on Sept. 20, 1928.
Her parents, John and Mary Maio, immigrated
from Medeira, Portugal. Mary was the youngest
of four siblings, Elizabeth, Anthony and John.
The family moved to the Utica, area where Mary
lived until 1970.
Mary built her camp on the shores of First
Lake on Fletcher Road, and entertained friends,
family, nieces and nephews who played with her
d o g Pr ince and h er ca t Jinxy. S he me t E d
Diamond and together they built Mary’s camp
into the Diamond family home where they raised
Mark, Stephanie, John and Cathy. Mary’s brother
John contributed much of the construction while
the Diamond family worked to change this small
three room camp into a family home on the lake.
She devoted her life to her family and shared
her love of the Adirondacks with them, teaching
three generations to ski, snow shoe, and enjoy the
woodlands. Mary was one of the best things to
come into our lives and she will be more than
missed.
Throughout her life her pets played an important part of her life. As a young girl she dressed
her cat, Bootsie, in baby clothes and pushed him
around in a baby carriage. In recent years she
doted over her cats and was reassured during her
last days that her two remaining cats would be
well cared for.

Mary had always been active and loved the
outdoors. She was an avid skier and learned to ski
in Old Forge when the ski train ran from Utica…
a long time ago. She downhill skied up until 80
years old and then took up snowshoeing. Mary is
one of the few grandmothers to take her first
grandson snow sledding at Maple Ridge and 30
years later she took her last granddaughter sledding as well. In the off season she planned and
tended to her flower garden, enjoying the birds,
and cats and her friends as she weeded and planted.
Mary thrived on serving the community of
Old Forge including Girl Scouts, Kinderwood,
Polar Bear Club, Food Pantry, Loaves and Fishes,
St. Bart's Altar Rosary Society, View and the
Garden Club to name a few. Folks will miss her
fam o u s ap p l e l o g at t h e n ex t Al t ar R o s ary

There is so much to share about this wonderful, vibrant woman who loved her family and her
community but there is not enough space in this
paper; so take some time in these next days and
weeks to share your favorite Mary Diamond story
with a friend and celebrate her life.
