Birding Hike with Joan Collins
2024-07-23 08:00 - 17:00
Join Joan Collins on this exciting birding trip into the William C. Whitney Wilderness Area north of the Town of Long Lake. Meet at Shaw Pond parking lot in Long Lake (1 mile east of Stewart’s on Route 28N) at 6:30 a.m. The trip will begin with birding at Shaw wetlands in Long Lake. The beaver dam creating the pond was destroyed in floods during the summer of 2023, so we can see how the wildlife has changed this year along Shaw Brook. (A restroom break at the bridge over Long Lake is an option after Shaw wetlands.) Next, we will make a few birding stops along Route 30 before heading to the William C. Whitney Wilderness Area. Along Sabattis Circle Road we will make stops at several locations, including the scenic inlet of Little Tupper Lake and Sabattis Bog. Eighteen warbler species breed along this road including Northern Waterthrush, Mourning, Palm, and Canada Warblers. Many boreal species can be found along Sabattis Circle Road including, Black-backed Woodpecker, Olive-sided and Yellow- bellied Flycatchers, Canada Jay, Boreal Chickadee, and Lincoln’s Sparrow. Little Tupper Lake and Sabattis Bog are within the William C. Whitney Wilderness Area, a designated Important Birding Area (IBA) by Audubon New York. Temperate deciduous and boreal forests make up most of the surrounding area, with over 30% of the IBA being wetlands. Bring insect repellent, hat, sunscreen, water, lunch, binoculars and appropriate clothing/jacket and footwear. Contact Joan Collins to register at JoanCollins@ADKAvian.com or 518-624-5528. This field trip is jointly sponsored by Northern New York Audubon and the Long Lake Parks and Recreation Department. There is a maximum of 15 participants. A rain date for this trip is July 24th, 2024.

Music by the Lake: Green River Tribute Band
2024-07-26 18:00 - 20:30 | Long Lake Town Beach
6-8pm. Long Lake Town Beach. Featuring: Green River Tribute Band
Green River – The #1 Nationally Touring Creedence Clearwater Revival/John Fogerty Tribute Show is the brain child of native New Yorker Rick Horvath. Noodles as he is affectionately known, was born to perform this music. He started singing CCR songs in his very first band when he was only 13 years old.
CCR was an American rock band active in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Their musical style encompassed the roots rock and swamp rock genres. Creedence Clearwater Revival’s music is still a staple of American radio airplay and the band has sold 30 million albums in the United States alone.
The show is very faithful to a live CCR performance. Listeners enjoy a full 90 minute show of their favorite CCR classics (Bad Moon Rising, Proud Mary, Up Around the Bend to name a few) and songs that Creedence would turn into live jams such as Born on the Bayou and Susie Q. The band also mixes in John Fogerty classics including The Old Man Down the Road and Centerfield capturing the energy of his current show.
Coolers and lawn chairs are welcome.
This project is made possible with funds from the Statewide Community Regrants Program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature and administered by the Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts.

Mosaic Steppingstone Class
2024-07-28 08:00 - 17:00 | Mt. Sabattis Geiger Arena, 6 Pavilion Way, Long Lake, NY, 12847, United States
In this summer themed mosaic steppingstone class, you will create a unique stepping stone for your yard. You will choose your design from a number of different patterns, then select all the glass from a nice array of colors and textures. You will learn how to cut the glass and grind it to fit the pattern. You will then affix your focal point glass pieces to the stone with special cement and fill in the background with smaller pieces of glass. The cement needs to be totally dry before the stone can be grouted, so we will do a demonstration stone to show everyone how to apply the grout. You will take the grout powder home for mixing and grouting in a few days.
The cost for the class is $45 per person. All materials and tools are included. Safety glasses and gloves will be provided. Registration and pre-payment is required. Please email pokrentowski@aol.com to register. Mary will respond to your email to confirm space availability. Maximum 8 students.
Cancellations made at least 1 week prior to the first day of a class will receive a 100% refund. No refunds or exchanges will be made for failing to attend the class without prior notice.
In the event that we must cancel the class, a full refund for the class will be issued.
It is a good idea to wear long pants and closed shoes when working with glass.
The instructor, Mary Pokrentowski, has been making and teaching stained glass for over 30 years.
