Glens Falls Police Investigating Stolen Items from Unlocked Vehicles

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

The Glens Falls Police Department continues to receive and investigate a significant number of reports of items being stolen from unlocked motor vehicles over the last few weeks… These incidents have been taking place at night, and coincide with a typical pattern seen this time of the year.

“We see this every Spring,” stated Chief Jarred Smith.  “There’s a rise in items stolen from unlocked motor vehicles overnight… The subjects who are responsible will attempt to see if a vehicle is locked or not. If the vehicle is locked, they typically move on… It is very rare that we receive any reports of forced entry or windows being broken in any investigation like this.”

Smith went on to say, “If a motor vehicle is left unlocked, the subject(s) will enter, search, and steal any valuables left inside a vehicle before quickly moving on. These types of crimes occur very quickly, making them very difficult to catch… Thus, we’re asking everyone within the city to lock your motor vehicles, and to remove any valuables from your vehicle anytime it will be left unattended.”

The Glens Falls Police Department is also asking for the public to check their web cameras and security video equipment, and if anything is found, to notify police immediately.

If you have any information, please contact Glens Falls Police at (518) 761-3840.

New Audiences for Old Songs: Traditional Ballads and Folk Songs

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

On May 6th, 2023 at Crandall Library in Glens Falls, there will be a free workshop for folk song musicians and enthusiasts alike from 3:30 PM to 5:00 PM! This event will feature Collin Cleveland – a fifth generation ballad singer – and David Ruch, a musician and teaching artist. Colleen Cleveland is the granddaughter of Sara Cleveland (1905-1992) one of America’s most important ballad singers.

Sara Cleveland

Sara was born in our region, where she learned the folk ballads and old songs of her Scottish and Irish family, friends, and neighbors… She and her mother began a notebook of these pieces that grew into a collection of over 600 regional and British Isles songs, which remains a cherished family heirloom to this day. Sara passed this repertoire to her son, Jim, and granddaughter, Colleen, to carry on the tradition of ballad singing.

Come hear the ballads, learn about the collection, and present your own versions! This event is hosted by the Folklife Center at Crandall Public Library, located at 251 Glen Street in Glens Falls. This event is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts, with support from the Governor’s Office and the NYS legislature.

Ashley Campbell: Owner of Coral & Blue Paper Co.

Written by Staff Report on . Posted in Business, Featured.

Ashley Campbell is the owner of Coral & Blue Paper Company and non-profit, Coral & Blue Burundi. She is a mom of two from Saratoga Springs, NY, and her company features children’s stationery that makes thank you notes fun and simple for kids… Her mission is to encourage happiness, gratitude, and human connection in our ever-more digitized world.

Ashley started Coral & Blue Paper Co. – which is named for the classic colors so beloved in childhood – to solve a problem: she could not find kid-friendly stationery when her children were growing up. For years, she made her kids’ cards from scratch, drawing lines on construction paper with a ruler and attaching their artwork from school… Through the process, she learned exactly what kids need to make note-writing simple and fun: elementary lines, an oversized writing space to accommodate larger hand-writing, and an area to color.

After searching the market for kid-friendly stationery unsuccessfully, she decided to create it herself! Parents began asking where she got her cards, and after applying for and receiving a US Design Patent, Coral & Blue was founded.

Taking a simple idea and creating a product that both solves a problem and encourages kindness and connection has been an incredible journey for Ashley… She is so excited to share her kid-friendly stationery with kids, parents and the retail world!
