Where The Buffalo Roam In The North Country

If you have never tasted Bison (aka: Buffalo), you and your taste buds are missing out. It’s such a flavorful and lean meat, with cuts almost identical to beef.  We love nothing more than biting into a mouth watering Buffalo Burger, with fresh burger meat straight from the Adirondack Buffalo Company.

Fireworks Are On: But A Few Dollars More Is Needed!

Fans of Schroon Lake near and far have ALMOST raised enough cash to have Labor Day Fireworks. Technically there are happening – but there is still a short fall in the funds needed to pay for this event.

In a matter of days, after the alarm was raised that the Labor Day Street Party would not end with a bang, checks started arriving at the Chamber of Commerce and the Town Hall,

“The money has been trickling in,” said Schroon Lake Area Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Tammy Whitty-Brown.

“People are excited. It’s going to be a great night out!”

The celebration kicks off ON SATURDAY with a huge garage sale in the park above the beach. Funds from the rental of a space to sell your gear goes to the Schroon Lake Senior Citizens center.

The party kicks off at 7:30pm with the Willie Playmore Band on Dock Street. The fireworks are set to begin at 9:30pm.

Trainwreck Still On the Tracks at The Strand

After a minor tech glitch earlier this week, Strand owner Larry McNamara is extending the movie Trainwreck through Sunday night. A reminder, this is an adult film, rated R, but it's hilarious. Just how funny? Here is a review from Schroon Laker Emily Rossi-Snook

"OK, so I finally go to the Strand to see a movie this season (sorry, but I'm not a fan of the blow 'em up genre) to see "Trainwreck". I haven't laughed that hard at a movie since I saw "The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming" at the Paramount Theater. And how many of us can say they remember that? Anyway, I'm also not a fan of the sophomoric humor movies (that's why I didn't see "Bridesmaides") but this is not that! Very, very funny movie (don't go late; you don't want to miss the opening scene where the dad is explaining divorce to the kids). Don't bring the kids: it is rated R; hey, guys: don't think it's a "chick flick". Lebron James (did I spell it right?) is hilarious!"
