Schoharie County Arts announces six local grant recipients

By Jennifer Patterson

SCHOHARIE – In keeping with its mission to support local artists, the nonprofit Schoharie County

Arts (SCA) has announced that six artists and arts organizations will receive grant funding to bring art to Schoharie County this year.

The $300-$500 community grants were awarded with funds from Schoharie County/NYPA Relicensing Grants, and are administered by SCA.  

“Schoharie County is home to so many gifted artists,” said SCA Board President Lisa Ovitt. “We’re proud to shine a light on their talent and support them in their work.”

With a focus squarely on Schoharie County, the nonprofit arts organization is an offshoot of CREATE (Council for Resources to Enrich the Arts, Technology and Education), which administers arts grants for Columbia, Greene and Schoharie counties.

SCA works to promote cultural and arts-related activities, advance individual artists and organizations,

and contributes to the county’s cultural and economic growth. It also supports local artists and arts organizations directly with grant funding. 

Last year, SCA awarded grants to Panther Creek Arts, the Gilboa Historical Society, Klinkhart Hall, and the Theater Project of Schoharie County.

This year, the following artists/organizations have been awarded grant funding: George Landis Arboretum, for a performance by The Insolent Willies, as part of the Landis Arboretum Music Series; Artist Casey Beal, for block printing community workshops; and the Cobleskill United Methodist Church, for a performance by musician Jeff Grippen at the Community Block Party.

In addition: Schoharie Promotional Association, for a performance by The Red Wagon at its Summer Concert Series; Jefferson Art Room, for the creation of parade puppets to march in Jefferson’s 2025 Heritage Day Parade; and The Community Library, in collaboration with artist Pam O’Connor, for the creation of eight Schohary 250th jackdaws for children that will include authentic items from the Revolutionary War time period. 

SCA also sponsors community events throughout the year and collaborates with Schoharie Economic Enterprise Corp. (SEEC) to shine a light on local artists by providing a venue to display their artwork at 287 Main St. in Schoharie.

The latest exhibition, titled “Edge + Overlap” by Schoharie artist Kristen DeFontes, will be on view through early summer. Featuring abstract works of the last decade, the exhibit spans a

range of artistic processes, from printmaking and collage to bronze and found object assemblage.

Nourished at Middleburgh—Where Tradition Meets Today

MIDDLEBURGH — Welcome to Nourished at Middleburgh, a new-faith community. Not familiar with the name? That’s because we’re new. Until recently, we’ve been known as Middleburgh United Methodist Church (MUMC). MUMC has been part of the Middleburgh community for more than 200 years, but times have changed. Our church culture has shifted, and a new leadership team has cast a vision that moves beyond the traditional framework to which Middleburgh UMC felt bound. Through our research and many conversations with the community, we have decided to recreate our church. 

Still located at 281 Main Street, our new church is more community-centered, actively welcoming a greater variety of people outside the church’s former identity as a traditional church serving traditional church members. Our new church is a safe refuge without judgment for families and individuals who have felt excluded from other religious settings. 

We aim to help all in need through a multi-faceted approach. We are now a healing place for your mind, body, and spirit. Our Sunday church service is an informal time of sharing and learning how Scripture can help us through daily life, sometimes around a meal, and sometimes meeting people where they are. We offer a weekly Bible study to expand on our Sunday message or to discuss whatever is on our attendees’ minds. 

Part of our outreach will include our already successful Twice Is Nice mission store, where we have three goals: to help people in need through the sale of our donated, high-quality clothing and other items, to help the environment by decreasing what goes into the landfills, and to use a percentage of the income to maintain the condition of our building and property. 

Our Blessing Box is open during store hours and by appointment. Located on the Clauverwie side of our property, those in need can find a revolving supply of food, feminine and baby needs, pet food, and cleaning products. Donations are welcome. Please call, email, or stop by. We’re open on Wednesdays from noon to 6 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. 

Last but not least, we will be offering many events for the community to enjoy! Experience the joy of music through mini-concerts and open-mic nights. Express yourself in a drum circle, Zumba, or dance gathering. For those looking to focus on healing and wholeness, we offer a healing room with a space intentionally created to nourish the body, mind and spirit.  Elena Mauceri offers sessions here that focus on sound and healing frequencies.  She has studied and received a certificate in sound and energy healing.  

Enjoy community gatherings such as dinner theater, game nights, trivia challenges, and puzzle time. 

Our former sanctuary, newly redesigned, is available for events, both private and public. We have many opportunities for volunteering as well! Please call us at 518-827-5126 or 518-4917365, or email Pastor Maryellen Moore at melenamoore2323@gmail.com. 

Nourished at Middleburgh. Open hearts, open minds, longer tables. Come as you are.

Proposed Gilboa-Conesville Budget Has 1.84% Tax Increase

By Chris English

GILBOA-CONESVILLE _ A proposed 2025-26 Gilboa-Conesville Central School District budget has a 1.84 percent property tax increase, the cap set for the district by the state for next school year.

School district residents will say yes or no to the proposed spending plan at the annual budget vote on May 20.

During her budget presentation at the Wednesday, April 23 school board meeting, GC Superintendent Bonnie Johnson said the decision to ask voters to approve a budget with a tax increase at the cap does not come easily. However, she said she and other school district officials feel it is warranted for 2025-26 in the face of rising expenses in almost every area.

The board voted unanimously to approve the proposed $12.87 million budget and present it to voters later in the meeting.

"We will be asking the community to get us to the cap," Johnson said. "The Board of Education has been very supportive of the community here and over the years has passed budgets representing a lot of savings to the community. So, we hope they will support this going forward."

Johnson said the district splits the budget up into three parts: administrative, capital and program. Each is going up in 2025-26, in large part because of increased salary and benefit costs and also other factors. The superintendent said the administrative budget is going up $427,426; capital $395,000 and program $197,475. Employee health insurance costs are going up 10.5 percent and dental insurance up 3 percent, she added.

Included in the May 20 vote is a transportation proposition that will ask voters to approve the purchase of a full-size, 60-passenger school bus at a cost of $167,140 and two seven-passenger vans at a cost of $41,989 apiece.

The May 20 vote, which will also include the school board election, is noon to 8 p.m. at the school, 132 Wyckoff Road, Gilboa. At the April 23 meeting, the board approved incumbent Stephanie Bruck as the school board candidate for a five-year term.

The school board will hold a special meeting to lay out the proposed 2025-26 budget at 7 p.m. on May 6 at the school.

In other news from the April 23 meeting, the board heard a presentation from Social Studies teacher Michelle Fleischman and some students on their upcoming trip to the Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA) National Leadership Conference in Orlando, Florida July 5-10.

Attending for GC will be Fleischman (adviser to the school's FCCLA chapter), Elementary Reading teacher Michelle Dumas (chaperone) and students Bray Shultes (8th grade), Abigail Woodcock (9th grade) and Ariana Yepez (9th grade).

Fleischman said 8,000 from across the country are expected to attend and among the many activities will be competitions in 32 different events. Students will be attending youth workshops, listening to National Officer Candidate speeches, attending general sessions and presenting projects they have been working long and hard on.

"We appreciate the support that the board and administration has given us over the years," Fleischman said at the April 23 meeting. "We're in the heat of fundraising (for the trip) right now."

In personnel action items near the end of the meeting, the board approved Jacqueline Lewis as a long-term substitute in Spanish retroactive to April 3 and accepted "with regrets" the retirement of long-time grades 7-12 English Language Arts teacher Andy Dumas effective June 28.

M'burgh's 250th Committee Planning to Celebrate America's Birthday

By David Avitabile

MIDDLEBURGH - Middleburgh officials are coming up with plans to celebrate the United States' 250th birthday on July 2026.

The committee met again in April and members came up with "a lot of good ideas," Trustee Sheryl Adams told village board members at their April meeting.

Among the ideas were a community picnic, possibly in Tim Murphy Park, a band, and, hopefully, fireworks. Other events will be planned, Ms. Adams added.

The celebration is more than a year away but "this is a good start," Mayor Tim Knight said.

Village board  members named the members of the 250th committee earlier this year. 

Named to the committee were: village: Mayor Knight, Trustee Adams, and resident Matthew Lacy; town: Supervisor John Youmans, Councilwoman Sue Makely; and Town of Fulton: Councilman Richard Mix.

The committee is hoping to have one big celebration instead of smaller ones.

It was noted that Mr. Lacy's late father, former Supervisor Lee Lacy, was a member of the 200th committee.

Mayor Knight said the issue was first broached at the joint village-town meeting last June.

*   *   *

In other action, board members:

* Heard that more than $550 has been donated in memory of former Clerk Janet Mayer.

* Heard Trustee Bob Tinker say that some trees have to be taken down in the cemetery. The village does not want falling trees taking down any stones, he said.

* Heard Mayor Knight say that the village will have an intern for the fall, a former student of the Mayor.

* Agreed to hold the joint town and village meeting on Thursday, June 12 at 6pm at the Middleburgh firehouse.

* Heard Fire Chief Darwyn Gregory say that the fire department's tower truck passed the fire test and the department is waiting for hose to replace older hose.

* Heard Chief Gregory say that the burn ban is still in effect.

* Heard Chief Gregory say that the department responded to several motor vehicle accidents and mutual aid calls in other areas.

M'burgh to Seek Historic Designation for Village Hall

By David Avitabile

MIDDLEBURGH - The two-story brick Middleburgh Village Hall is a historic building and village representatives want to make that official.

The Village Hall on Main Street in Middleburgh has been serving the community for more than 145 years and Mayor Tim Knight will be doing research on getting an official historic designation for the building. The building served the village as a bank from 1880 through the early 1960s and then became the village and town hall. It has been the village hall since the mid-1990s.

"We are going to start with a state historical designation, and potentially work our way towards national recognition if the state is receptive," Mayor Knight said this week.

"Village Hall is a historic structure; it stands as a living intersection of our community's business and government operations," the Mayor noted.

In addition to the notoriety of being on the Historic Registry, a designation would help the village receive grants for the building.

"Receiving a historical designation would also make Village Hall eligible for more preservation grants in the years ahead, as we want to ensure this structure as all the funding necessary to operate well into the 21st century," Mayor Knight said.

"In addition, I am optimistic that a historical designation would also open up additional funding to make Village Hall handicapped accessible." 

The village has been seeking funding for several years to make the building handicapped accessible but have found the cost unaffordable.

At their April meeting, village board members were very much in favor of the seeking the designation.

Trustee Bob Tinker said it was a good idea and that some grant funding could be used to remove the drop ceiling on the first floor and expose the original ceiling.

"It would be gorgeous," Trustee Tinker said. "I think it would add to the looks of the building."

Trustee Sheryl Adams said that the building has "been so many different things" and is "very historical."

The bank was also the site of the last heist in the long and storied career in crime of Max Shinburn, aka "The Count" and "The King of Crooks." His career came to an unlikely end after his last score, the contents of the safe of the First National Bank of Middleburgh in 1895.

As recounted in a Forgotten Schoharie County feature in 2022, after being pursued on two continents for more than 35 years, the man who was nicknamed "The Count" in Europe and was also known as the "King of Crooks," was arrested in New York City by the detectives from the famous Pinkerton Agency. He stood trial in Schoharie on burglary charges and nearly escaped, and probably could have, after being jailed in the county jail during the trial.

Being arrested was nothing new to Mr. Shinburn, once called "The greatest bank, safe and vault burglar that has ever been known in police history" by Robert Pinkerton of the Pinkerton Detective Agency.

He was first arrested in Saratoga after robbing the Walpole Bank in New Hampshire in 1864. Police closed in on him on April 10, 1865, just four days before the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. He was convicted but later escaped from New Hampshire State Prison, a pattern he repeated several times during his infamous career.

County Order Puts 30-Day Moratorium On Use Of Biosolids

By Chris English

SCHOHARIE COUNTY — Schoharie County has temporarily banned the use of biosolids as a fertilizer for 30 days, according to an emergency order signed by County Board of Supervisors Chairman Bill Federice on April 23 and taking effect on April 25.

The order is part of a two-pronged approach by the county to halt the use of biosolids until more can be learned about their potential harmful effects. County Supervisors are expected to consider a six-month moratorium on their use during a public hearing at their next meeting on May 16. Because it's the time when many growers are applying fertilizer, the BOS felt the emergency order was needed as a quicker action before the longer moratorium is considered on May 16.

The order comes after farmers appeared at the last two meetings of the county Agriculture Committee chaired by county Supervisor Alicia Terry to express concerns about the use of biosolids, which are the solid organic matter that remains after wastewater (sewage) treatment. These solids are then treated to meet specific standards before being used as a soil amendment or fertilizer, primarily in agriculture.

The emergency order signed by Federice states that the county "seeks to protect the health and welfare of all residents" and that further the county "recognized that there are potential health and environmental concerns because of the land application of biosolids or compost derived from a wastewater treatment facility."

It continues that there are many issues of concern "including but not limited to the following: 1. Monitoring, regulation and enforcement; 2. Fast changing/conflicting regulations; 3. Using out of state waste stream; 4. Lack of clear scientific understanding consensus; 5. Uncertainty regarding how many Schoharie County farmers use biosolids."

The order goes on to say that "PFAS compounds, including PFOS and PFAS, at certain levels, is known to cause significant health risks to humans including, but not limited to, cancer-causing, reproductive and other health issues...The spreading of PFAS-laden biosolids and other contaminant-laden biosolids may sink below the water table and lead to runoff, causing contamination of drinking wells and water supply sources."

The 30-day moratorium established by the order states that "No person shall buy, sell, offer for sale, apply or offer to apply biosolids or compost derived from biosolids, laden with PFAs, heavy metals and other industrial waste, from a wastewater treatment facility for the purposes application or spreading on the agricultural, residential or commercial lands located in Schoharie County."

It continues that the county Department of Health "shall conduct the necessary inquiries and inspections to provide a report relating to the existing risks and potential health hazards related to drinking water wells and supply sources from the spreading of PFAS laden and other contaminant-laden biosolids.

"Any person or entity who/that violates this order shall be subject to a civil payment of a fine not to exceed more than one thousand dollars per violation/per day."

The emergency order is accompanied by a state of emergency declaration also signed by Federice effective at noon on April 25 that has similar wording as the order.

"This situation threatens public safety," the emergency declaration states, referring to biosolids. "This state of emergency will remain in effect until rescinded by a subsequent order."

All About Racing

By Ed & Betty Biittig

Fonda Speedway ran the Jack Johnson memorial event last Wednesday and Stewart Friesen of Sprakers stood in victory lane when all was said and done.  It was Friesen’s third win of the event since the first event in 2012.

Kenny Gates of West Winfield recorded his 99th victory at the track in the Pro Stock division and Dylan Madsen of Stephentown recorded his first win at the track in the 602 Sportsman event.   

Friday night Albany-Saratoga began their regular season with the “Flying Farmer 31” event in memory of Jason Herrington that raced at the track and was help to many of the racers attending.  Jason died suddenly at the age of 52 earlier this year. 

A total of 197 cars were in the pits to compete.  Wow, that is a lot of cars and certainly the fans knew it would take a lot of time to run all the heats and features for that many cars.  There was also a threat of rain as the night went on and although the staff and management at the Great Race Place did a tremendous job keeping the show going, the Modified main event was stopped by rain after two laps and the Sportsman and Four Cylinders were also postponed.

Winners at Malta were 358-Mods, Felix Roy of Napierville, Quebec; Pro Stocks, Pete Stefanski of Wheatfield, NY; Street Stocks, Mark Burch of Fort Edward and Limited Sportsman, Gary English of Salisbury, Vt. 

Utica-Rome Speedway was also plagued by rain, they had a shower at 4:45 pm according to announcer, Todd Morey but were able to groom the track and be ready for the show to start on time. 

Local drivers that made the trip to Utica-Rome were Jim Becker, Connor Prokop and Seth Martin.  Seth Martin won his qualifying heat and both Prokop and Becker through their heats.  Jim Becker finished 12th in the Modified feature, Prokop and Martin both had trouble in the Sportsman feature and finished out of the top ten. 

Winners at Utica-Rome were Modifieds, Matt Sheppard of Savannah, NY; 602 Sportsman, Tyler Peet of Lake Ariel, PA; Crate Late Models, Brady Wonderling of Wellsville, NY; Limited Sportsman, Garrett Chillot of Springbrook, PA; Four Cylinders, Jacob Kimball of Whitesboro, NY, dual cam and Steve Burka of Brookfield, NY, single cam. 

Because of the patience the Four Cylinder division showed the week prior when their feature ran last on the schedule, this week they were given a free pass, and their feature ran first.

Both Fonda and Lebanon Valley fell to rain on Saturday night. 

Fonda will begin their point season this coming Saturday, May 3 when the Thunder of the Thruway Series begins.  All divisions will be in competition. Keep wrist bands from Saturday rain out.  Saturday, May 3 Lebanon Valley will have the first night of racing for the big block Modifieds plus all other divisions.

Albany-Saratoga will be back in action of Friday, May 2 with Twister Pro Stocks, A to Z Modifieds and Sportsman heat money and $500 to win Street Stock Shoot Out.

Sunday, May 4, Glen Ridge opens for the season. 

Until next week please send all news and/or comments to biittig@yahoo.com
