LPI Book Club meeting

“Art Lover, A Biography of Peggy Guggenheim,” by Anton Gill is this month’s choice of the Lake Placid Institute Book Club, which will meet at the Lake Placid Library at 7 p.m., Monday, January 28. Ms. Guggenhiem, was left a small fortune at a young age after her father went down on the Titanic. She soon relocated to Europe, moving about with the American expat group of bohemian writers and artists of the day. She has been dubbed by some as the “mistress of modern art” but was equally well known for her colorful and scandalous life style.

The LPI Book Club usually meets 7 p.m. on the last Monday of the month to discuss books about arts and architecture. All are invited to join in the discussion or to come just listen.

Oral History training – at Noon in the John Black Room

Led by Anthropologist Adam Dewbury..

RSVP – 891-4606

The event is free and open to the public – bring a lunch..

Lake Placid-North Elba Historical Society

2013 “Odds and Ends” Winter Lecture Series

The Lake Placid-North Elba Historical Society is pleased to kick off their 2013 “Odds

and Ends” Winter Lecture Series on Wednesday, January 30 at Howard Johnson’s

Restaurant in Lake Placid. The lecture will begin at 7:00 pm with attendees encouraged

to come for dinner at 6:00pm. The first program in the four-part series is titled “Sandra

Weber, author of Adirondack Roots”.

Sandra Weber, dressed in period costume, delivers a lively program of readings and

portrayals from Adirondack Roots. The book, published by The History Press, is a

collection of Sandra’s finest writings on Adirondack hiking, history, and women. Be

prepared to sob and chuckle as you hear the stories of those who have lived in and loved

the Adirondack mountains, including the presenter’s own tussles. After spending many

summers in the region, she has now permanently put down Adirondack roots at her drafty

log cabin in the woods near Elizabethtown. Sandra’s other books about the region include

Two in the Wilderness (with photos by Carl Heilman), Breaking Trail: Remarkable

Women of the Adirondacks (with Peggy Lynn), Mount Marcy, and The Finest Square

Mile. She is also well-known for her dramatic portrayals of Mary Brown in “Times of

Trouble” and of other Adirondack women in “Mountain Women Can Be Heroes” (with

folksinger Peggy Lynn).

The Winter Lecture Series has been titled “Odds and Ends” in memory of Laura Viscome,

a longtime supporter of the Historical Society. Laura’s weekly “Odds and Ends” column

ran in the Lake Placid News for many years and was a great source of information for

residents and visitors.

Lectures will be offered monthly from January through April 2013. All programs offered

in the Lake Placid-North Elba Historical Society’s “Odds and Ends” Winter Lecture

Series are free and open to the public. The series will continue at Howard Johnson’s

Restaurant on Wednesday, February 27 with Scott Carroll and Marc Nathanson: “The

making of the documentary, Small Town: Big Dreams”

For more information, please contact Lake Placid-North Elba Historical Society at (518)

THURSDAY, January 31 5:30 p.m. – 14th Annual Past Royalty Mixer and Dinner (Red Fox Restaurant, $), call 891-1286 for reservations

Free personal tax computation and filing is being offered again this year by local American Association of Retired People volunteers. “We expect to begin about the end of January,” said Carol Pinney, one of the preparers. There is absolutely no charge for service which is located at the Lake Placid Public Library. It is available to everyone regardless of age or income.

Anyone wishing to use the AARP program should call the library at 523.3200 and leave their name. A representative of the organization will call back to set a time and date and instructions on what information to bring.

The tax preparers are fully recertified each year to keep up with the ever-changing federal and state tax laws. The returns are submitted by email, which is the method preferred by the IRS, and taxpayers receive a folder containing hard copies for their files.
