HISTORY COLUMN P7LAKE GEORGE — In an effort to

assist the efforts of businesses at-tempting to stay open through thewinter, the Lake George VillageBoard is considering relaxing re-

strictions on temporary signs.Whether it’s an A-frame sign

placed on the sidewalk in front of ashop or a banner above a store’s en-trance, such temporary signs are im-portant to attract customers off-sea-son, Mayor Robert Blais said at amonthly board meeting held Jan. 14.

“Making the sign law more busi-

ness friendly is another way we canhelp folks struggling to stay openduring winter,” Blais said.

He suggested that the boardamend the sign law to allow busi-nesses to apply for one blanket per-mit for the winter season, withouthaving to apply for individual per-mits, event after event, which cost

$100 each.In beginning the board meeting,

Blais launched a new feature. He in-troduced several of the many formervillage notables, depicted on a mu-ral on the back wall of the publicmeeting room of the village hall. Themural was painted by scenic artistsLaurie Wilson of South Glens Falls

We’ve all seen the sign, but do you really know the story behind “The National Christmas Tree”? A movement for an Adirondack tree to be used as the national Christmas tree on the White House lawn was started in 1960. After a 2 year search, a 70 foot white spruce was discovered in Chester. The tree had been planted by George Robinson & his son, Buel, on Landon Hill. It was one in a row of trees planted to protect their house from wind and blizzards.

The area around the tree was cleared of all vegetation as a fi re prevention measure. The tree was groomed and heavy mulch was placed to preserve moisture and

to prevent the soil from freezing. One hundred fi fty pounds of special tree food was applied.

Throughout the winters of 1962 & 1963 a worker would inspect the tree after each snow fall and shake the limbs to prevent damage. During the summer, feeding and spraying continued as well.

Special permits were obtained to move the oversized load down the Thruway and through New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Maryland.

At the annual Pageant of Peace in December 1964 the “Adirondack Christmas Tree” was adorned with 5,000 red and white GE bulbs.

WARRENSBURG — Warrensburg CentralSuperintendent of Schools Tim Lawson is re-tiring this November, and the local schoolboard has begun a process of seeking out theschool system’s next chief executive.

The Warrensburg Central School Board ofEducation met Monday Jan. 14 with region-al BOCES Superintendent James Dexter todiscuss parameters for the search process.

Lawson, 54, notified the board twomonths ago that he was retiring as of Nov.

29, 2013. He has served as the school dis-trict’s superintendent since mid-2003. Be-forehand, he was the principal of Warrens-burg Elementary for about eight years. Hebegan his service with the Warrensburg dis-trict following a five tenure as principal inthe Minerva School District. From 1983 to1990, he served as a technology instructorthere.

This week, Lawson said he was retiringmid-year to allow a new superintendent ofschools to be on board for the full process ofpreparing a budget for the 2014-15 schoolyear.

“Retiring in November provides the

school district with flexibility in the selec-tion process and offers potential savings,”Lawson said. It also gives the school boardsufficient time to pursue a thorough searchfor a new superintendent, he said.

In September, Lawson’s wife Gail Lawsonretired from her position as guidance coun-selor at Warrensburg Central.

Since 1995, the two have resided in Thur-man, where they’ve raised their childrenKatherine and Todd, both of whom attendedWarrensburg Central and had notable aca-demic and extra-curricular accomplish-ments.

Tim Lawson said he hadn’t yet decided on

particular plans at this point for his retire-ment years.

“I have no idea yet,” he said. “I have a lotof hobbies and aspirations, so I have no con-cerns about filling my spare time.”

School district staffers, however, may beconvincing him to continue one of his cur-rent activities — driving a school bus.

“The people at the bus garage want me tokeep driving — as a substitute,” he said. “Iknow I want to stay in the area — and con-tinue to support the school district and com-munity.”

Blais: Grant for docksto boost tourism

LAKE GEORGE — Village officials not-ed recently that a state grant of $177,000 toinstall new public docks on Beach Roadwill boost tourism while saving taxpayerssome money.

The Village of Lake George has receivedthe grant from the state Waterfront Revital-ization program to complete the installa-tion of the docks, located along on BeachRoad.

The Village’s six docks, popular with vis-itors, were heavily damaged during Hurri-cane Irene and had to be repaired for useduring the 2012 summer season. Three ofthe 90-foot docks were replaced last seasonwith the expenditure of Village funds.

The old docks, constructed of wood, re-quired considerable maintenance and re-pairs due to their vulnerable location at thesouthern end of the lake, village MayorRobert Blais said. Each winter at least onewould be damaged by the movement of iceand had to be repaired by Village employ-ees, Blais said.

The new docks are constructed of heavyaluminum posts, driven into the lake bot-

tom with composite decking and paddedbumpers. Each dock is equipped with fireextinguisher stations donated by the LakeGeorge Power Squadron. The structuresalso feature ornamental lighting.

The docks are utilized annually by thepopular Antique and Classic Boat Show,Performance Regatta Weekend and LakeGeorge Area Boat Dealers as well as thegeneral public.

Hourly fees are charged to dock boatsand annually account for approximately$20,000 in revenue to the village.

Blais said the state grant was much ap-preciated, considering the condition of theeconomy.

“These funds will allow us to have first-class facilities available for our boatingpublic,” he said. The grant was the sixthstraight given the Village for waterfront re-vitalization, the popular Lakefront Walk-way, Canada Street improvements, the vil-lage Visitor Center and the public docks.

“We are extremely grateful to the De-partment of State, Division of Coastal Re-sources, and the Governor Council on Eco-nomic Development for their overwhelm-ing support of our community,” Blais said,noting the grants have totaled over $2.7million.


CHESTERTOWN — Adirondack League Boys Basketballis providing area sports fans with high-scoring, aggressiveplay this year, as several hot-shooting players are propellingtheir teams into the state rankings.

Pre-season, all the area coaches expected Argyle to have aremarkable year, and they have indeed, earning the top rank-ing for all D schools in the state.

Argyle’s now 11-0 and ranked No. 1 in New York StateClass D, behind Joey Lufkin’s routine 35+ point performanc-es.

Lufkin’s hot shooting from all over the court has provid-ed an incredible challenge for all defenders. On Jan. 15, hescored 38 points against Salem. The prior week, Lufkin

scored 39 points against Bolton and 40 points versus Corinth.It’s not news when Lufkin personally tallies a higher scorein a game than the entire opposing team’s roster.

With the Eastern Division of the Adirondack Leaguewrapped up by the Scots, the Western Division is being ledat this point by Lake George, which is also undefeated at thispoint at 11-0.

Ranked at No. 14 in New York State for Class C, they areled by Joel Wincowski, although they have a balanced line-up to back him up. Wincowski has routinely scored over 30points. Last week, he scored 39 and 32 points in twomatchups.

Tuesday Jan. 15, the Warriors endured a real test in amatchup against North Warren, which has racked up an im-pressive series of victories this year.

Although they’re one of the smallest schools around,

they’ve accumulated a long string of victories, earning aNumber 11 ranking in New York State Class D as of thisweek.

Lake George came out on top 69-52, after the Warriorsoutscored the Cougars by 10 points in the second quarter.North Warren’s Nick Sapienza led North Warren with 19points in the effort. Lake George demonstrated their depth,as Wincowski’s 25 points were backed up with Greg Rosen-thal's 20, and Connor McCoy with 12.

Cougar fans are savoring the fact that last week, their teamgarnered Game of the Week honors from the Albany TimesUnion. The contest was a hard-fought showdown againstFort Edward that the Cougars won 59-50. In this matchup,Nick Sapienza scored 28 points, including four 3-point shots.

Warrensburg, which has been providing its fans with someexciting basketball this season, pulled off a dramatic come-back victory Jan. 15 versus Corinth. Nick Perrone hit a bas-ket at 12 seconds left that put the Burghers ahead — afterthey trailed 41-25 at the start of the fourth quarter.

Showing a lot of heart and endurance, the Burghersoutscored Corinth by 28-11 in a blistering scoring onslaughtled by Nick Perrone, who scored all of his 11 points in the fi-nal stanza, including that late drive inside that gave War-rensburg the winning margin. Shea Irish was high scorer forthe Burghers with 25 points. Warrensburg prevailed despitethe Tomahawks’ Zack Shippe scoring 30 points.

Adirondack Journal Editorial

Now that the reappointing and fistbumping is over, the Essex Coun-ty Board of Supervisors should

tend to some business that will actually savetaxpayers money, and that is disbanding infavor of a board of legislators.

By our estimate, the move would easilysave county and town taxpayers at least halfa million dollars annually.

It would also provide residents with rep-resentation at the county who have no otherinterest other than county business.

At the same time, the board would nolonger be ruled by the weighted voting pow-er of the “big three” — the towns of Ticon-deroga, Moriah and North Elba; no legislatorwould have more voting power than anyother.

Imagine that. No squabbling over what’sin the best interest of your town, only what’sin the best interest of the people you repre-sent and the county as a whole.

What a novel concept.It seems to us that seven people sitting

around a boardroom table with an equalvote and no outside agenda might just getmore accomplished than 18 with a foot inmore than one camp.

Perhaps that is why more than 70 percentof the counties in New York have alreadygone the way of a board of legislators.

A board of legislators is a more efficient,more accountable form of county govern-ment.

All you have to do is compare EssexCounty with nearby Franklin County —which switched to a seven-member board oflegislators in 1970 — to quickly see thetremendous cost savings, both on the townand county level.

On the town level, the average annualsalary for a part-time supervisor in FranklinCounty last year was $10,735. Only one su-pervisor, in Harrietstown, was offered healthinsurance.

In Essex County, on the other hand, theaverage annual salary last year for a townsupervisor was $28,666, while 13 of 18 wereoffered health insurance.

That means Essex County’s 18 supervisorsmade $312,000 more in 2012 than FranklinCounty’s 19 part-time supervisors.

Then, at the county level, the seven mem-bers of the Franklin County Board of Legisla-

tors made $108,000 last year compared to$319,137 in Essex County — a difference of$211,137.

Combine those two numbers and EssexCounty’s 18 supervisors cost more than halfa million dollars more last year thanFranklin County’s 19 supervisors and sevenlegislators, with 12,000 fewer residents.Franklin County has 51,579 residents com-pared to Essex County’s 39,302.

Add to that the cost of benefits both at thetown and county for 18 people and the finaltally no doubt pushes that number closer to$1 million annually.

We’ve heard the arguments in favor of aboard of supervisors. Some believe the con-stituent service is better with a full-time, ac-cessible town supervisor and officials arguethat the county interaction with towns is bet-ter under the current governing body.

But as a taxpayer, you have to ask your-self: Is it worth a million dollars more out ofpocket each year?

Under a board of legislators, each townwould still be represented locally by a part-time supervisor, as well as a town board.Residents would still be represented by alegislator at the county level.

That’s better representation for less mon-ey, if you ask us.

But don’t take our word for it — ask the 44counties in New York that are already undera legislative form of government. Ask themif they miss the cost and bickering associatedwith a board of supervisors and a weightedvote.

Making both the legislator and supervisorpositions part-time also would open them toa different slate of candidates like peoplewho might like to serve but are unable to doso in a full-time capacity.

Local government truly began to go awrywhen the positions started to evolve into anoccupation instead of an opportunity toserve your community.

Our supervisors should act now and notallow their own job security to cloud theirjudgement over what is best for the county.

Faced with an unprecedented financialmess heading into the year ahead, we canthink of a number of ways one million dol-lars could benefit local towns and the countyabove paying the salaries of 18 politicians.

One thing we never seem to beshort of are studies in human be-havior. Several recent studies

point to some alarming concerns for the fu-ture of our country. Reading survey out-comes is a little like reading tea leaves.Each person can see what they want to seein the results, but these results have morethan just a few experts reaching similarconclusions.

The first is the American Freshman Sur-vey, which has accumulated data for thepast 47 years from 9 million young adults.The survey reports that college studentsare more likely than ever to call themselvesgifted and driven to succeed, even thoughtheir test scores and time spent studying isdecreasing. American students have in-creasingly given themselves "above aver-age" ratings on several attributes butbragged most regarding their "drive toachieve." Almost four-fifths of survey re-sponders say they're above average in thiscategory.

The other survey from Pew ResearchCenter, asked respondents if they had everreceived benefits from any of six major fed-eral entitlement programs — Social Securi-ty, Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, wel-fare, or unemployment benefits. Pew foundthat in addition to the 55 percent of adultswho had received benefits, another 16 per-cent said that while they had not receivedbenefits themselves, a member of theirhousehold had — meaning 71 percent ofadults belong to a household that has bene-fited from at least one of these six majorprograms. If veterans’ benefits and federalcollege loans and grants are included, theshare of households with at least one recip-ient rises to a surprising 86 percent.

When you combine the results and beginlooking at other factors one has to questionif our youth will be prepared to be fullyself sufficient when their time comes totake the reins and support a much largerand aging Boomer population.

Not only do entitlements breed a certaindependency but look at the popular trendstoday like Facebook or Twitter whereyoung people can fool themselves intothinking they have hundreds or thousandsof “friends.” They can block anyone who

disagrees withthem or pokesholes in their in-flated self-esteem.They can chooseto show the entireworld only flat-tering, sexy orfunny photo-graphs of them-selves, speak their mind on short posts andpublicly connect to big name movie stars,professional athletes, politicians and musi-cians to whom they are digitally connected.They can quickly Google search any factsas easily as asking their phone for the an-swer.

It is a society where everyone is consid-ered a champion, schools push underper-forming students along, reality shows rulethe airwaves, children who don’t fit thenorm are drugged to conformity, energydrinks are the beverage of choice, videogames are the great past-time and, as a na-tion, we keep borrowing money that thisgeneration will someday be forced to pay-back.

It’s great that government and the tax-payers can lend a hand when you need it,but what happens when government reach-es the point they can no longer treat themasses as special and individuals areforced to fend for themselves? What hap-pens when reality really becomes real andit’s no longer just a do-over video game orTV show? Will our youth be prepared forthe challenges which surely lie ahead ofthem in the future?

When you are young you’ve got nothingto compare to accept the events of the day.As you age you understand the differencebetween good times and tough times. As anation we’ve been and continue to be on agood run economically, but at the rate weare currently spending one has to wonderhow much longer the government can con-tinue to borrow to support those who maynot be up to the challenge of supportingthemselves, let alone when they’ll need tosupport the Boomer generation.

Let Thurman folks decide on EMS coverage!To the Editor:

As a founding member of Thurman Emergency Medical Services Inc., it has been distress-ful to watch the bickering between the town administration and the local EMS volunteersand townspeople.

Town representatives have claimed repeatedly that residents prefer lower taxes over a vi-able paid emergency squad.

Squad representatives express an oppositional view.One thing is clear: Thurman residents in increasing numbers are expressing anger at the

perception that the Thurman Town Board is running amok, to the exclusion of resident in-put. One symbolic example is the neon sign that was totally unnecessary and cost taxpay-ers in excess of $7,000.

I believe that it would make a strong statement if the town held a referendum aboutthrough which residents could express their preference for how their money is spent: to-

ward lower taxes, or a fully staffed EMS squad. The vote should be held after the town pro-vides accurate cost estimates of per-capita EMS coverage: how much per $100,000 valuationof taxes would be saved if we “de-fund” EMS, and how much it would cost (employing thesame scale) to maintain it.

We are an intelligent population, fully capable of making a decision when adequate in-formation is presented.

It would also go far toward the Town Board regaining the trust of the populace they pre-sumably serve.

Martin Luther King DayMartin Luther King Day, a federal holiday, celebrates the

birthday of the nation’s primary spokesman for nonviolentaction to achieve civil rights.

King’s birthday is Jan. 15, but it’s celebrated on the thirdMonday of January under the Uniform Monday Holiday Act.

While the campaign to establish a holiday in King’s hon-or began soon after his assassination, it was signed into lawin 1983 after Congress passed legislation establishing theholiday by a heavy majority — and it was first observed in1986.

Several states — including New Hampshire and Arizona— resisted the holiday observance until 2000 when all 50complied.

Preparations are progressing for Thurman’s 54th annualJack Wax Party to be held Saturday March 9. The event ben-efits the American Cancer Society.

This event requires months of advance work to make it assuccessful as it has been for decades. Before I volunteered toorganize the Jack Wax Party, I had no idea how much wentinto making sure this event was held without a hitch — well,I am the wiser now!

Many area businesses have volunteered food items or giftcards to be used for the purchase of food. Also, many morelocal residents have volunteered not only to prepare home-made food items, but donated their priceless time to helpmake sure this is an event to remember. I just have to thankyou all from the bottom of my heart for making this come to-gether so well!

100 Years Ago - January 1913

Savage blow ends man’s lifeOrville S. Pratt of 69 Maple St., Glens Falls,

a former resident of Horicon, died Jan. 22,1913 in Glens Falls Hospital of general peri-tonitis super induced by a rupture of thebladder, caused by a heavy blow or a fall, be-lieved to have been received in a fight whichhe engaged in Saturday with an Italian inWhitehall. Pratt was taken to the hospital onMonday and the next morning his death oc-curred, prompting Coroner Birdsall and thepolice to begin an investigation.

While waiting for the train at the depot,according to the story told by Pratt somehours before his death and corroborated byhis brother-in-law Thomas Bennett of White-hall, an Italian appeared and demanded adollar he claimed Pratt owed him. Pratt,knowing that the demand was a ruse, en-gaged in a fight which he decidedly got theworst of, and when he finally arrived inGlens Falls his coat and vest were torn andhis right eye was badly discolored. Thinkingthat he was intoxicated, his wife gave himlittle attention and on Saturday and Sundayhe did indeed imbibe alcohol and Sundaynight complained of severe pain in his stom-ach. A physician was summoned the nextday after which he was taken to the hospitaland on Tuesday he died.

Besides his wife, he is survived by twosons, Richard Pratt, 19 and Burt Pratt, 15,and his mother, Mrs. George Carpenter ofHoricon.

Explosion wreaks havocThe heating boiler in the Burt Shirt Com-

pany’s factory in Luzerne exploded on Sat-urday evening about 6 o’clock with devas-tating results. The front of the boiler wasblown out and the smoke stack split its en-tire length. It is supposed that an explosionof coal gas was the cause as the boiler hadjust been fired by Frank St. John, who wasstruck on the leg by a piece of the door andsomewhat injured. The factory is a branch ofthe Troy Shirt Factory.

Bad luck abounds in ChesterMiss Hattie Nelson of Starbuckville,

Chestertown, met with a painful accident re-cently. She had been subject to fits sincechildhood and after going into one, fell onthe kitchen stove burning the flesh on onehand to a crisp and inflicting frightful burnsabout her face and neck. She remains uncon-scious and little hope is given for her recov-ery.

Mrs. Eugene Murphy of Loon Lake,Chester is suffering from a sore throat, theresults of swallowing a chicken bone whichlodged in the passage and produced hardcoughing spells. Four days later she went tothe Glens Falls Hospital where x-ray photo-graphs were taken but failed to locate thebone. She has received no relief.

Saintly Darrowsville mother diesEva Brown, 26, wife of Anson Butler, died

at her home in Darrowsville. She was mar-ried four years ago and leaves her husband,two little daughters and an infant son, onlytwo days old at the time of her death. She isalso survived by her aged mother, Mrs. LucyBrown, four sisters and two brothers, Albertand Fred Brown.

Early in life she accepted Christ as her per-sonal Savior and when dying, assured herweeping relatives that she was going to hereternal home.

The funeral was held Jan. 16, 1913 at theWesleyan Methodist Church in Darrowsvillewhich was largely attended by many sor-rowing friends and relatives and many flow-ers were received. (Note: I have sat on thehill at the top of the Darrowsville Cemeteryon many a summer ’s day and looked downat what is left of that wonderful old churchwith much nostalgia, thinking of all the wed-dings, funerals, and church socials that havetaken place there over its many years. Theremains of many the participants in thesepast dramas now lie in the cemetery restinghopefully in peace. †he church has a remark-able history, having been an anti-slaveryoutpost that nurtured a robust, active con-gregation of more than 200 members in themid-1800s. The church’s congregation wasrenowned for its abolitionist activities — in-

cluding offering welcoming shelter forAfrican-Americans escaping slavery via theUnderground Railroad, according to reportsat the time. Although there was an effort inthe late 1980s by Ralph Long and others torehabilitate the Darrowsville Church, I havesince seen the organ taken away, the belltower collapse and today the roof lies flat onthe ground. There are so many untold andforgotten stories there that are forever lost.)

Sickness and trouble aboundsThe unseasonable weather of this fall and

winter is without a doubt the cause of a greatdeal of the sickness which now prevailsthroughout the Adirondacks. Business isalso seriously affected by the lack of snowand in many areas there is much fear of anice famine. A large number of people are se-riously ill with colds and grippe.

Harry Higgins of Igerna is ill with thegrippe and tonsillitis and Julia Cross of In-dian Lake also has been stricken.

In Bakers Mills, Charles Frazier is serious-ly ill with stomach and throat trouble andArthur Perry, the 10-year-old son of Rev.Watson Perry, is ill with rheumatism.Bethuel Comstock has been ill since Dec. 20,1912 at his home. A prolonged season of oldfashioned winter weather would now bemost welcome.

(Note: In 2013 we are experiencing an “oldfashioned winter” and TV news tells us thatthis is the worst flu season in years. AuthorBrooks Atkinson once wrote that the “goodold days” were a myth and no one everthought that they were good at the time.)

Area to celebrate CentennialTo celebrate the county’s 100th anniver-

sary in 1913, there are many things beingplanned locally. There will be auto rides overthe fine roads in the country, a boat paradeon Lake George, a big gathering on the coun-ty fair grounds in Warrensburgh with ad-dresses by former county residents and abanquet. Various other events are also beingplanned for the celebration in August 1913.

The distinguished Hon. Charles EvansHughes, Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court,born in Glens Falls, will be invited as guestof honor. Hon. A.B. Colvin, of Glens Falls is

chairman of the committee. (Note: CharlesEvans Hughes was the governor of NewYork State in 1907 and in 1916 he was nar-rowly defeated by Woodrow Wilson for thepresidency.)

News roundaboutA Chicago doctor says that improper eat-

ing is the greatest cause of balding and thereare many men in Warrensburgh who havebeen evidently been careless in their diet.

Although a heavy downfall of rain accom-panied by thunder and lightening visitedthis area Friday, Jan. 3, 1913, the skating rinkon the village playground on Hudson St.,Warrensburgh was finally able to be openedJan. 13, 1913, for the first time this seasonand was occupied all the first afternoon andevening by a merry crowd of young people.

In Bolton, fine skating is being enjoyed onTrout Lake. Anna Young lost a cow by slip-ping on the ice on the lake. Milo Cardlekilled a pig for Jonathan Gates that weighed525 pounds. Jerod Putney recently pur-chased the Russell Streeter place and JohnRoss of Diamond Point has purchased thefarm of Jeptha Ross.

A new organ has been placed in theMethodist Episcopal Church in Johnsburgh.

In Bakers Mills, Dennis Waddell, while atwork on his new house, fell from the stagingand broke several of his ribs. Sarah Lackeystepped on a nail about three weeks agowhich almost went through the skin on topof her foot. She has been suffering severeagony from the wound.

Charles H. Wilcox is collecting taxes atSanford Kenyon’s store in Thurman. WilliamJ. Baker of North Thurman has lost his baymare. Carl Wheeler of West Bolton lost a finecolt. Mr. Stevens and his son, Elmer of Wev-ertown lost a valuable cow. A colt belongingto Rozelle Stevens, which had been missingsince early autumn, was recently found deadin the woods a short distance from the barn.

In Johnsburgh Corners, Earl Waddell, whowas recently injured quite badly by beingthrown from a load of hay to the frozenground, is nearly well again.

Thought for the day: The coal dealer doeshis business exclusively with people whohave money to burn.

and Marisa Muratori of Lake George.Pointing to one figure, he noted that former Mayor Bob

Caldwell, whom Blais defeated in 1971, routinely carried aDerringer pistol strapped to his ankle. He also pointed outHarry Cohan, proprietor of Cohan’s Sport Sop in LakeGeorge, who was named state Boxing Commissioner. Blaisalso gestured to Wayde Earl, father of village Trustee JohnEarl, noting how the elder Earl had been a town board mem-ber, town supervisor, as well as the village Police Justice.Blais also reminisced about community pillar Howard Mc-Donald, and how he regularly brought his dog Betsy to thevillage board meetings, hiding her under the table duringmunicipal proceedings.

“I’m so pleased I knew all these people personally,” Blaissaid.

businesses in the area, raised nearly $7,000 for charitablecauses through the Dance Marathon.

Event advisor Marlene DeLongis said Tuesday that theDance Marathon, over its three years of existence, had raiseda total of $23,000 for local people and families facing vari-ous needs.

“The kids did a great job of raising money, and we had agreat group of parents and school staff who annually showup to make this happen,” she said.

DeLongis said that a group of students helping organizethe event would be talking this week with advisors abouthow to allocate the proceeds. Among the charities they’vealready talked about are Operation Santa Claus, NorthCountry Ministry, High Peaks Hospice, and the Ben Osborn

Memorial Fund, she said.“All are great causes,” she said. “The heart of the

Marathon is to give back to people in need in the local com-munity.”

During the event, the students played musical chairs, en-gaged in various contests including air drumming and lipsynching, Pratt said.

“The students were a lot of fun and so respectful,” he said.“It was refreshing.”

Teenager Riley Fisk said the event was not only fun, butit offered timely rewards for community members facinghardship.

“The Marathon was held for a good cause,” she said. “Alot of people need help right now with the economy as badas it is.”

to 8 p.m., during which bids were placed in silent auctionsfor goods and services donated by area businesses and indi-viduals.

Amongitems donated were a bird house and bird feed donated bythe WCS second grade teachers, a basket of maple productsfrom Mike Hill of Thurman, and a Burgher spectator chair,branded sweatshirt, umbrella and cap, all donated by theWCS Football Booster Club.

Warrensburg High School Principal Doug Duell said thegenerosity of the people in the region was “phenomenal.”He characterized the event as a success.

years, and increase to 13 percent for 2014-15.Through 2011-12, teachers were contribut-ing 10 percent of their health insurance pre-miums.

Switchover to new health plan Except for teachers who have reached the

lifetime co-pay amount for the Matrix plan,teachers opting to receive benefits from thedistrict will move to the less expensive Pre-ferred Provider Option plan offered by theregional BOCES consortium.

Those teachers choosing to remain in theMatrix plan who have not met the lifetimeco-pay threshold must pay the difference be-tween the PPO and Matrix plans.

Warrensburg Central Superintendent ofSchools Tim Lawson said that the contractprovides long-term savings to the districtthrough curtailing retiree’s options concern-ing health care premium payoffs.

Retiring teachers will now contribute tohealth insurance plans at the same rate thatthey were contributing at the time of their

retirement, rather than being able to use un-used sick leave to reduce or eliminate theirportion of the insurance premiums.

Salaries scheduled to increaseOffsetting the concessions is a modest in-

crease in the salary schedule. Salaries are toincrease 1 percent in the 2012-13 year andanother 1 percent in 2013-14, then 1.25 per-cent in the 2014-15 year. The agreement callsfor zero increase in salary during the 2011-12 school year.

These salary increases are on top of the“step” increases that are granted each yearthat average just under 2 percent. In War-rensburg, these step increases conclude at26 years of service.

Lawson said these increases are compara-ble to the amounts agreed to recently in thesettlements in the Lake George, BoltonLanding and Granville schools.

“I think both sides spent a fair number ofhours and a lot of hard work to reach thisagreement,” Lawson said Tuesday Jan. 15.

The teachers' former five-year contract ex-pired June 30, 2011. Negotiations had start-ed six months earlier. By Fall 2011, negotia-tions were at an impasse, and a Public Em-

ployee Relations Board mediator wasbrought in to work with the two sides on asettlement. The PERB mediator worked withthe parties three times over 2012, but no set-tlement was reached. In late fall, an attorneyfor the district and a labor relations special-ist from the state teachers’ union continuedto guide negotiations, Lawson said.

“Both parties feel this is a fair agreement,”he said.

Warrensburg Teachers Association presi-dent Marc Mularz offered his comments Jan.15 via email. He said that the settlement wasfair considering the current economic cli-mate.

“The teachers were very supportive of theagreement and recognized that concessionswere necessary due to the continued under-funding of education by the state govern-ment,” he said. “Hopefully the state will seefit to restore education funding to at leastthe level of two years ago so that we cancease this spiral of reduced opportunities forstudents.”

Health plan details explainedIn the expired contract, a teacher that re-

tired with 300 unused sick days could be

paid cash for 200 of them and use the re-maining 100 to permanently “buy down”their health insurance premiums, subtract-ing 1 percent for every 10 days accrued.Lawson said a fair number of teachers weredoing this, and many effectively had nohealth insurance costs.

The annual total cost of health insurancefor an employee for the Matrix family planis $24,000, and $20,000 for the PPO familyplan. The cost for an individual Matrix planis $8,300 and for $7,000 for the individualPPO plan, District Business Manager CindyTurcotte said. She estimated that the conver-sion to the PPO plan and increase in employ-ee contributions would result initially in asavings of $20,000 for the first year and$80,000 for each year thereafter. The schooldistrict currently pays about $3.6 million an-nually in health insurance expenses for itsactive employees and retirees, she added.

Lawson said that overall, the new contractwouldn’t yield a substantial immediate sav-ings, but would lessen the load on taxpayersover the long run.

“The projected long-term savings are sig-nificant, particularly with the projected fu-ture rate increases,” he said.
