Got Bread?

For those who have tasted Schroon's own Bearded Baker's artisan sourdough, they are left in a state of breaded bliss.

"It reminds me of the greatest rustic, crunchy loaves I ate when I lived in Paris," crooned one, happy and satisfied customer. (That would be Mrs. SChroonLaker)

Today several loaves will be up for grabs at the Mountainside Christian Academy today at  around 1:00 pm.

Get On Your Sled!!!!

Tonight, some lucky winner is gonna be the proud owner of a new sled: a 2013 Ski-Doo snowmobile to be exact. You most likely have seen it ‘round town since the summer, proudly displayed by the Schroon-North Hudson Snow Mobile Club.

The club is raffling it to raise funds to go towards the purchase of a trail groomer, as well as the purchase of a new four wheeler.

"We'd use the four wheeler  in the spring and off season to keep the trails trimmed back and cleared," Club President Dwayne Anderson told Schroon Laker.

The club purchased the snowmobile from Smith Marine in Old Forge. "They gave us a great deal, at cost. They are friends as well as members of the club."

At 7pm tonight at the club’s annual meeting at the Schroon Town Hall, Schroon Lake citizens of the year Bob and Jane Claus will pick the winning ticket. Good Luck if you entered!

Throwback Thursday: Scaroon Manor: The 1950s Summer Edition

History buffs and fans of the long gone Scaroon Manor -- feast your eyes on the above 8 photos, SchroonLaker.com recently acquired. They were taken over the course of two family vacations, in July of 1957 and 1958.

From these images, you can really get a sense of what the resort was like back in its heyday. Visitors to the site today only get to see the sorry remains of the once glorious orchestra and band shell, which you can see here (in pristine condition) in the background of the photo with the archway sign "Scaroon Loves You." 

Other shots show the golf course, shuffle board courts, the main building and folks having fun on the water and at the beach. We will be rolling out more this this delightful collection  -- once we get the images converted from slides -- over the next several months. Got Scaroon memories to share? Tell us about them in our comments section.
