Special Olympics Fall Games: Volunteers Needed

Written by Kate Haggerty on . Posted in Community, Featured, Sports.

The 2023 Special Olympics Fall Games include an opening ceremony on Friday, October 20th at Glens Falls City Park, and competition in seven sports Saturday October 21st – competitions will include bocce, cross country running, cycling, equestrian, soccer, golf and softball. 

Volunteers are needed to support the Games. Jobs that volunteers fulfill include: event set-up and break-down, registration, scorekeeping, timing, photography, and golf caddying. No experience is needed. The venues for the 2023 State Fall Games include: Glens Falls City Park (opening ceremonies), Adirondack Sports Complex (bocce), Cole’s Woods (cross-country running), SUNY Adirondack (cycling), Skidmore College (equestrian), Brookhaven Golf Course (golf), and Morse Athletic Complex (soccer and softball).

Volunteers work to set up and take down ceremonies that support the running of competitions… They cheer on the athletes, as well as capture and share moments from the events. 

Special Olympics New York has created a strategic plan to help athletes with intellectual differences (ID) play a sport, be part of a team, and compete. The goal of the strategic plan is to increase depth of participation, and quality of opportunities for existing athletes and stakeholders, as well as recruit the next generation of athletes, coaches and partners. Achieving organizational excellence is also core to enhancing the mission and securing the future.

The Special Olympics has been changing lives since 1968… The Special Olympics began because Eunice Kennedy Shriver saw how unjustly and unfairly people with disabilities were being treated, and she decided to take action. The goal was to learn what these children could do in sports and other activities, and not dwell on what they couldn’t do. The work of the Special Olympics has helped people with disabilities gain respect and admiration… This movement continues to bring people with and without disabilities together.

Cantrip: Free Concert at the Folklife Center

Written by Kate Haggerty on . Posted in Community, Entertainment, Featured, In the Arts.

On Thursday, September 7th, Cantrip will be performing a free concert at The Folklife Center at Crandall Library! Doors open at 6:30 PM music begins at 7:00 PM. The Folklife Center is a place to hear live music from world-class bands in an intimate setting. The concerts are free to the public due to funding from the Friends of Crandall Public Library and the New York State Council on the Arts: Folk Arts Program.

Cantrip formed nearly twenty years ago in Edinburgh, Scotland. The name Cantrip is an old Scots word meaning a charm, magic spell or piece of mischief… This name aptly describes the unexpected twists and turns in their musical arrangements! Swirling border pipes, raging fiddle, thunderous guitar and rich vocals create an energetic sound. The music that Cantrip performs has its roots in 1960’s and 1970’s traditional music, but over the years, influences of funk music, metal, blue grass, and swing have shaped their sound. 

This high energy Celtic music comes from a group of friends – Dan Houghton, Jon Bews, Alasdair White and Eric McDonald. Dan Houghton began his career playing bagpipes, and plays the flute, bouzouki, and DADGAD guitar… Jon Bews is a veteran fiddle player… Alasdair White plays the fiddle, and Eric McDonald studied the mandolin and guitar at Berklee College of Music.

Cantrip signed to the Foot Stompin’ label and created their first album “Silver” in 2001. Over the years the band has done significant touring, and later began producing their own records, “Boneshaker” in 2005 and “Piping the Fish” in 2008, and critically acclaimed “The Crossing” in 2016.

Heidelberg Inn to be Featured on America’s Best Restaurants

Written by Staff Report on . Posted in Business, Columns, Community, Featured, Food, News.

QUEENSBURY, NY – Local restaurant Heidelberg Inn will be hosting a visit from America’s Best Restaurants (ABR) in late August 2023.

America’s Best Restaurants, a national media and marketing company focusing on bringing attention to local, independently-owned restaurants, will bring its ABR Roadshow to the restaurant on August 29th. Popular dishes will be highlighted, along with an extensive on-camera interview with owner John Weber about the restaurant’s special place in the community. The episode will be aired extensively on social media channels at a later date.

Heidelberg Inn, open since 1972, has been under Weber’s ownership for over eight years. He claims they are the last truly authentic German restaurant in the area. With an outdoor covered biergarten, staff in traditional lederhosen or dirndls, and a full menu of German and American specialties all made from scratch, they offer a fun and different experience for locals and tourists alike.

“I think there’s something unique about what we offer and what we’re doing,” he says. He is looking forward to the upcoming visit from ABR to potentially get new customers in the door.

They have a big draw for Oktoberfest, which runs from mid-September through October at the restaurant.

A popular menu item that may be featured on the episode is the ‘German Tour’, a platter of options which consists of veal jagerschnitzel, choice of one wurst (which is sourced from a NYC charcuterie) and sauerbraten, which is beef marinated in a red wine vinaigrette for ten to twelve days, slow cooked for hours, and served with a beef-based gingersnap gravy.

“It’s definitely unique,” notes Weber. “Some people come in exclusively for that.”

And don’t forget the German beers on tap, available in das boot – 1.25 liters or 2 liters in a glass shaped like a boot.

America’s Best Restaurants will be filming on location on Tuesday August 29th from 9 am to noon EST. The press is invited to attend but the filming is closed to the public. The restaurant’s finished episode premiere date will be announced on their Facebook page and will be featured on America’s Best Restaurants’ website at https://americasbestrestaurants.com/rests/new-york/heidelberg-inn.

Veteran-Owned: Slickfin Brewing Company of Fort Edward

Written by Kate Haggerty on . Posted in Business, Community, Entertainment, Featured, Food, Local Leads.

Slickfin Brewing Company, located at 147 Broadway in Fort Edward, is owned and operated by former US Marines Kris and Heather March. This husband and wife couple came to Fort Edward, a small historical village along the Hudson River in Washington County… That’s where Slickfin Brewing Co. has made its home, and they’ve never looked back!

When Kris and Heather first discovered Fort Edward, the downtown was filled with vacant and deserted storefronts… Now, the area has a welcoming vibe, with the hustle and bustle of a thriving village that supports a variety of commerce. The couple saw the potential in downtown Fort Edward, and have worked to help build a neighborhood and community around them: “We were scouting locations for the brewery and came to Fort Edward to look around… What we saw were a lot of empty storefronts along the Hudson River, which is right there (Kris pointed to their backyard beer garden). We looked around and thought we could do something here,” Kris said. 

Slickfin Brewing Company has full-sized windows that look out onto a sidewalk patio with tables that line Broadway. The beer garden around the back of the building provides tons of space for patrons to relax! Kris described the interior of the building when they first found it: “The whole interior area was divided into small spaces. It was all sectioned off and very dark,” Kris said. Kris and Heather worked to open the space up, and Kris built the bar himself. 

The unique name of the brewery comes from Heather and Kris’s shared military experience – the term Slickfin refers to the fin on a bomb, as during his time in the Marines, Kris was an Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technician. His experience inspired the name, and the name in turn inspired their logo.

Kris and Heather love working together and being part of a community… Heather grew up in Fort Ann, on Hadlock Pond. She graduated from Fort Ann High School in 1998, and attended SUNY Adirondack prior to joining the Marines. Heather is happy to build their business and raise their family in the area where she grew up: “My family is here, and my friends are here. That makes a big difference to us,” she said. 

Kris and Heather met on the rifle range at the Marine Corps Base at Quantico, and married a year later… Together, the couple run the brewery, with Kris brewing the artisanal craft beers, and Heather focusing on creating a welcoming environment and expanding their customer base.   

Slickfin Brewery is perfectly situated to both watch and be a part of the evolving resurgence of Fort Edward! Kris and Heather have watched new businesses move in around them and, love being part of building that community. “Our community wants to be a part of the change that is happening… Everyone is looking and watching and wants these businesses to succeed,” Heather said, as we gazed out the front window watching cars navigate the Broadway. “Don’t get me wrong, it’s taken a while,” Kris added with a smile. 

Kris and Heather experienced the support of the community first-hand while navigating the pandemic – having established their business in 2017, Slickfin Brewery officially opened in March of 2019. The pandemic created unforeseen challenges that warranted creative solutions… Slickfin provided curbside pick-up for their customers, and expanded their patio to serve their customers safely.  Having only recently opened, Heather and Kris found that the community was dedicated to helping their business: “Cars would line up along Broadway, and we would run their order out to them after they had paid over the phone.” Heather said. “It was definitely a challenging time, but we got through it.”

Slickfin is surrounded by businesses that help support each other. Heather gives credit to their neighbor – Underwood Park CrossFit – because their clientele often frequent the local businesses… The community has also welcomed the Twisted Taco Food Truck, and still values the long-standing businesses like The Anvil Inn, Ye Old Fort Diner, and Mamma’s Cafe.

Seeing what Heather and Kris have created begs the question, “What’s next?” Kris has her answer: “We have plans. Our fifth year in business is coming up in March of next year, that’s the year we plan to go to market… I’m working on organizing my methods. Since we opened, we have brewed over 200 types of beer… I would like to stick to between 50 and 75 of those. We have had a lot of fun. The small system that we use allows us to do a lot of things… It allows us to change our menu frequently,” she said. The Slickfin craft brew menu creates an opportunity for patrons to enjoy a 5-oz taster, the traditional 16-oz pint, or a 32-oz Crowler – a growler in a can!

Slickfin Brewery does not serve food, but has created partnerships to encourage patrons to support neighboring eateries – Kris and Heather keep menus of neighboring restaurants on hand, and allow customers to order food in! There are menus from Stumpy’s Pizza, and the Twisted Taco truck parks right outside of Slickfin’s on Tuesday nights.

Kris and Heather keep their customer base up to speed on what is on tap through their website… They are currently featuring Maize for Days Lager, Yacht Rock-Blueberry Blonde Ale, Silhouette IPA-Belguin, Chameleon IPA, Riptide Hard Seltzer,  Before I had Status IPA-American, Street Fighterz, Lager- Japanese Rice, Incoming-Spark it up and Choose a flavor -Sour, Riptide Slushie- Mixed Berry or Peach Hard Seltzer, and NightShade Maple Porter.

Kris and Heather are proud of what they have been able to build in Fort Edward and the calendar ahead is filling up with much anticipated events. August 19th is the 2nd annual Fort Fest. This event takes place at the Brewery from 12:00 PM – 10:00 PM. On Friday, September 1st, Slickfin is featuring a “Paint and Sip” event and then their attention will turn towards OktoberFest!

Slickfin Brewery is open Tuesday through Sunday. The hours of operation are 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM Tuesday through Thursday, Fridays and Saturdays from 2:00 pm to 10:00 PM, and Sunday 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm.

Tim Drawbridge Leaving City Service

Written by Staff Report on . Posted in Community, Downtown, Featured, Workforce.

Tim Drawbridge, the City’s first full-time Communications Director, is taking a new position in the Capital District closer to his daughter, and will be leaving the City before the end of the month.

“Tim has taken on a significant challenge here in Glens Falls,” said Mayor Collins. “Tim is the City’s first true communications director – and if we learned anything during his tenure, it’s that the position is critical to keeping City residents informed.”

“While we all are sad that he is leaving, we appreciate all of his hard work to blaze the trail on the outreach processes we are now using every day,” Collins said.

During his tenure, Tim created hundreds of press statements and news releases, developed processes to ensure that critical information was distributed as widely as possible, and set in motion a number of upcoming changes that are expected to streamline how City news and events are published.

“It has been my incredible honor to work with Mayor Collins and all of the talented City employees who go about their work largely unnoticed,” said Drawbridge. “I hope that we’ve been able to shine a light on all of the hard work being done for the benefit of the community.”

Thanks to Tim, the City has presences on social media channels that didn’t exist previously, expanding the ability for the City to reach out directly to more residents than ever before: “With Tim’s departure, we will be posting the position immediately in an effort to have little to no break in outreach with our residents,” said Collins. “You can find job information on the City’s social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn), and on the City website at https://cityofglensfalls.com/jobs.aspx
