WE NEED LISTINGS!<br />
“When people are making the decision of the magnitude of<br />

and we think that the Berkshire Hathaway name will be<br />
reassuring to many of those people.”<br />

<strong>Cambridge</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Cycling<br />
President: Gary Dormandy<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Cycling was<br />
founded in 2004 and comprises<br />
cyclists of all levels who enjoy<br />
riding and socializing together.<br />
The club holds regular rides<br />
during “the season,” three<br />
times a week. Rides usually<br />
begin at 5:30 or 6 p.m. for Mild<br />
Monday and Wednesday rides,<br />
and at 9:30 or 10 a.m. for<br />
Sunday rides. Most routes are<br />
primarily on paved roads with<br />
some dirt roads. We do have a<br />
group of gravel riders who<br />
enjoy the dirt, so we also<br />
schedule rides where the roads<br />
are predominantly dirt ones.<br />
Rides usually begin at the<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> Town Library parking<br />
lot, but other starting points<br />
include the Buskirk Covered<br />
Bridge, Greenwich, Salem,<br />
Arlington, and even Mt.<br />
Greylock. The regular season<br />
runs from March through the<br />
end of November, and for some<br />
diehard members, the club will<br />
squeeze in winter rides, as well.<br />
In addition to the regular riding<br />
schedule, members of the club<br />
participate in many local or<br />
regional biking events. Tour de<br />
Battenkill, Tour de Cure, Billy’s<br />
Ride, Black Fly Challenge,<br />
Whiteface Mtn. And the MHCC<br />
Gravel Gobbler, are among<br />
events in which club members<br />
have participated. Last year we<br />
also began scheduling club rail<br />
trail rides several times during<br />
the season. Finally, there is a<br />
social aspect to the club. We<br />
often will gather at the Argyle<br />
Brewing in <strong>Cambridge</strong> after our<br />
Wednesday night rides, have a<br />
picnic ride in July from the club<br />
president’s home, start rides<br />
from the RS Taylor Brewery in<br />
Salem or Brown’s Taproom in<br />
Walloomsac, and also a Monday<br />
night favorite, rides from<br />
Benson’s Dairy Bar in Eagle<br />
Bridge. Hope you might come<br />
out and join the fun. More information<br />

The <strong>Cambridge</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Chamber of<br />
Commerce was established in 1997 by a small<br />
group of business people with a vision of<br />
improving the community and business<br />
opportunities.<br />
During the 20+ years the Chamber has<br />
brought many events and services to the<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> <strong>Valley</strong>.<br />
Through the years the Chamber created<br />
and has successfully organized 19 Balloon<br />
Festivals, organizing Christmas in<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> celebrations, and worked with<br />
other organizations to enhance the quality of<br />
life for the region. We have also designed and<br />
supplied the Welcome to <strong>Cambridge</strong> street<br />
banners to the Village along with other decorations,<br />
and annual spring flower planting.<br />
The Chamber has annually updated and<br />
distributed member brochures along with<br />
maintaining the website, plus taking part in<br />
regional discussions regarding tourism and<br />
economic development. We have joined with<br />
our adjoining chambers of Greenwich and<br />
Salem to help publicize a regional destination<br />
of The Battenkill <strong>Valley</strong>.<br />
The Chamber is the voice of its members.<br />
We strive to maintain and expand the local<br />
business climate, and invite visitors to participate<br />
in our annual events, and day to day<br />
experiences. The <strong>Cambridge</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> is a beautiful,<br />
warm and welcoming region.<br />

Battenkill Chorale adjusts to singing during Covid era<br />
The Battenkill Chorale<br />
was established in 1995 by<br />
founding director Janet<br />
McGhee. Through the years,<br />
this eclectic and dedicated<br />
group of amateur singers has<br />
become one of the “cultural<br />
crown jewels” of the North<br />
County and the Capital<br />
Region.<br />
The Battenkill Chorale<br />
performs major works from<br />
the choral music literature<br />
from intimate chamber pieces<br />
to larger-scale dramatic<br />
works for soloists, chorus<br />
and orchestra. Its richly varied<br />
and critically acclaimed<br />
repertoire includes both<br />
sacred and secular music<br />
from the 15th to 20th centuries,<br />
all sung in the original<br />
language.<br />
Its 2018 performance of<br />
Verdi’s Requiem was ranked<br />
as the Capital District’s<br />
number-one classical music<br />
performance in the<br />
Schenectady Daily Gazette’s<br />
“Best of 2018.”<br />
The chorale has gone<br />
through some big changes in<br />
the last few years, said the<br />
group’s president and executive<br />
director Judy Leon.<br />
“When Janet McGhee, our<br />
The chorale in rehearsal with founding director Janet<br />
McGhee<br />
founding artistic director,<br />
retired in 2019 after almost<br />
25 years at the helm, many of<br />
our singers took the opportunity<br />
to retire as well. We<br />
went from a chorus of 75 to<br />
100 singers to fewer than 50<br />
quite suddenly.”<br />
The group’s new guest<br />
conductor Noah Palmer<br />
began with a small chorus<br />
but was successfully adding<br />
to its numbers with each<br />
concert cycle. Palmer<br />
became artistic director for<br />
the chorale’s 25th-anniversary<br />
season with a concert in<br />
January 2020.<br />
“Noah took over about a<br />
week before we started hearing<br />
reports about this mysterious<br />
virus,” said Leon.<br />
A collaboration with the<br />
Berkshire Lyric Chorus culminating<br />
in a grand concert<br />
at Seiji Ozawa Hall at<br />
Tanglewood in Lenox,<br />
Massachusetts, had to be<br />
shelved when Covid shut<br />
down everything in March<br />
2020.<br />
It was a real loss, said<br />
Leon. “I was reading reports<br />
about nothing as risky as<br />
singing. It was heartbreaking<br />
to not being able to do it,<br />
for singers and audiences<br />
alike. One oboe sounds a lot<br />
like another, but human<br />
voices? There just isn’t anything<br />
like it.”<br />
The chorale explored a<br />
variety of virtual options,<br />
Leon said, but abandoned<br />
these due to technical and<br />
connectivity issues in rural<br />
Washington County.<br />
The group planned two<br />
live outdoor “pop-up” concerts<br />
when public health<br />

conditions improved.<br />
Interested singers were<br />
mailed the music and a practice<br />
CD and expected to practice<br />
on their own until it was<br />
safe to get together, Leon<br />
said.<br />
In August 2021, chorale<br />
members finally were able to<br />
have several in-person<br />
rehearsals for the pop-up<br />
concert. “We rehearsed without<br />
masks in a large open<br />
barn, everyone was fully<br />
vaccinated and we maintained<br />
distance at all times,”<br />
said Leon. But when one person<br />
in the chorus tested positive<br />
for Covid, members<br />
were masked at all times<br />
until the concerts, which<br />
were both outdoors, one in<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> and one in<br />
Saratoga.<br />
“We voted unanimously<br />
to sing without masks. It was<br />
such a joy to sing together<br />
unencumbered, but also bittersweet,<br />
because our conductor<br />
Noah Palmer had<br />
decided to pursue other<br />
opportunities.”<br />
The group then recruited<br />
chorale friend and accomplished<br />
soprano, organist,<br />
teacher and conductor Gene<br />
Marie Callahan as its guest<br />
conductor and began<br />
rehearsals in September 2021<br />
for concerts scheduled for<br />
mid-January <strong>2022</strong> at the<br />
Arthur Zankel Music Center<br />
at Skidmore College in<br />
Saratoga Springs.<br />
“We had 35 singers registered,<br />
and our rules were<br />
that everyone had to be fully<br />
vaccinated – we checked vaccination<br />
cards at the first<br />
rehearsal – we would wear<br />
masks at all times within the<br />
rehearsal space and we<br />
would maintain distance at<br />
all times.” But then a series<br />
of unfortunate events intervened:<br />
The venue told the<br />
chorale that it would not be<br />
allowed to perform there, the<br />
chorale’s accompanist tested<br />
positive for Covid the day<br />
after a rehearsal, “and then<br />
Omicron hit and that made<br />
us nervous enough to pause<br />
rehearsals indefinitely in<br />
WANT NEWS DELIVERED<br />
RIGHT TO YOUR INBOX?<br />
December 2021.”<br />
The chorale hopes to<br />
begin rehearsals again in<br />
early March and perform on<br />
the weekend of June 4 and 5,<br />
Leon said. Details, including<br />
venue, are still being worked<br />
out.<br />
“Meanwhile, to keep<br />
everyone together and progressing,<br />
our intrepid conductor<br />
Gene Marie Callahan<br />
is providing virtual rehearsals<br />
or ‘listening sessions’<br />
every Thursday at 7 p.m.,<br />
our usual rehearsal time.<br />
This is valuable, but the reality<br />
is that nothing can ever<br />
take the place of in-person<br />
rehearsals. It’s just the<br />
nature of choral singing,”<br />
said Leon.<br />
The pandemic has been a<br />
rough time for choruses,<br />
Leon said. “Nevertheless, we<br />
persevere, because in the<br />
end we just want to be singing.”<br />
The chorale is always<br />
looking for interested singers.<br />
“You don’t have to read<br />
music,” said Leon, because<br />
Sign up at nyvtmedia.com/newsletters<br />
practice CDs are provided.<br />
“People learn music differently,”<br />
she said. “Some<br />
might have pianos in their<br />
houses, others use the CDs to<br />
learn the music by memory.”<br />
Leon rehearses with the<br />
practice CD as she’s driving.<br />
“When people think of a<br />
small community chorus,<br />
they think it might be rinkydink,”<br />
Leon laughed. When<br />
she moved to <strong>Cambridge</strong><br />
from an area close to New<br />
York City, she didn’t expect<br />
to find the Battenkill<br />
Chorale. “But then I went to<br />
my first rehearsal, the person<br />
next to me shared her<br />
music with me and I was<br />
blown away.”<br />

Battenkill Conservancy preserves, enhances watershed<br />
The Battenkill<br />
Conservancy began as a<br />
grassroots organization in<br />
1990. It is primarily an all-volunteer<br />
organization promoting<br />
clean water and open<br />
space by preserving and<br />
enhancing New York and<br />
Vermont’s Battenkill watershed<br />
and beyond through<br />
land conservation, education,<br />
advocacy and its River Watch<br />
water quality program.<br />
The Battenkill watershed<br />
covers 450 square miles<br />
beginning in Vermont and<br />
ending where the Battenkill<br />
empties into the Hudson<br />
River in Saratoga, said parttime<br />
executive director<br />
Photos courtesy of the Battenkill Conservancy<br />
The Battenkill Runs Through It Festival takes place on the Saturday of Memorial Day<br />
weekend each year.<br />
Lorraine Merghart Ballard,<br />
who has been involved with<br />
the conservancy since 2011.<br />
“<strong>Cambridge</strong> technically<br />
splits the watershed,” said<br />
Ballard. “We’re right on the<br />

<strong>Cambridge</strong> profiles<br />
A focus of the conservancy’s work is creating public<br />
access to the Battenkill.<br />
cusp. We have a little office in<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong>, but we’re all over<br />
the place.”<br />
The conservancy was<br />
instrumental in creating the<br />
525-acre Battenkill Forest, the<br />
530-acre Eldridge Swamp<br />
Preserve and the State Line<br />
Route 313 Rest Area and<br />
Visitor Center. “When<br />
Hurricane Irene hit in 2011,<br />
Eldridge Swamp Preserve<br />
absorbed a lot of the overflow<br />
from the Battenkill,” Ballard<br />
said.<br />
Three additional preserves<br />
held by the conservancy<br />
include the 17-acre Livingston<br />
Brook Heron Rookery in<br />
Greenwich, the 11-acre<br />
Schmidt Meadow Preserve in<br />
Jackson and the three-acre<br />
Rexleigh Marble Mill in<br />
Salem.<br />
“A big part of our mission,”<br />
Ballard said, “is to help<br />
people recognize the 60 miles<br />
of shoreline as a key asset in<br />
the area. Most people haven’t<br />
been on the Battenkill or<br />
don’t know how to get on it.”<br />
A big focus of the conservancy’s<br />
work is creating access to<br />
the Battenkill and educating<br />
the public about “the places<br />
you can legally get on it,<br />
legally fish, legally jump in,<br />
legally put a kayak in.”<br />
It also organizes adopt-astream<br />
programs, community<br />
paddles, river and roadside<br />
cleanups during the spring,<br />
summer and fall, a speaker<br />
series, a recent full-moon<br />
cross-country ski/snowshoe<br />
hike and bonfire, a summer<br />
trip/camp for middle school<br />
students to get out onto the<br />
river to fish and learn biology<br />
. . . “anything to make people<br />
aware of the connection<br />
between land management<br />
and clean water,” Ballard<br />
said.<br />
By working with groups,<br />
schools, colleges, local governments<br />
and the general<br />
public, the conservancy aims<br />
to build environmental literacy<br />
and instill an appreciation<br />
for the watershed that<br />
includes respect for the ecosystem,<br />
shared responsibility<br />
for its well-being and the<br />
experience of a special sense<br />
of place.<br />
“The Battenkill Runs<br />
Through It Festival is our signature<br />
event,” Ballard said.<br />
Taking place in the seven-acre<br />
Battenkill Riverside<br />
Park in Greenwich on the<br />
Saturday of Memorial Day<br />
weekend, the annual event<br />
“brings awareness to the<br />
park, which is located right<br />
on the Battenkill.”<br />
“We want to make people<br />
aware of the watershed and to<br />
think about clean water in a<br />
way that isn’t just drinking<br />
water or swimming water but<br />
more about what’s involved<br />
in maintaining a clean watershed,”<br />
Ballard said. “And if<br />
people love the river, they’ll<br />
take care of it.”<br />

for the big 20th in <strong>2022</strong>.<br />
The festival is the second<br />
largest event in Washington<br />
County, right behind the<br />
Washington County Fair.<br />
Because it is run by volunteers<br />
and thanks to its generous<br />
sponsors, it always is<br />
free.<br />
This year’s event is tentatively<br />
scheduled for Friday-<br />
Sunday, June 3-5, with food,<br />
music and community events<br />
adding to the fun.<br />
Organized by the<br />

<strong>Cambridge</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Chamber<br />
of Commerce, the festival<br />
draws more than 5,000 visitors<br />
and features multiple<br />
launches of about a dozen hot<br />
air balloons throughout the<br />
weekend. It is exciting for<br />
both new and returning spectators<br />
to see these majestic<br />
balloons rise into the sky and<br />
float through the surrounding<br />
countryside.<br />
Launches take place at<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> Central School on<br />
Friday and Saturday evenings<br />
at around 7 p.m. and<br />
Balloons floating above the <strong>Cambridge</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> at the annual<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Balloon Festival<br />
Saturday and Sunday mornings<br />
at around 5:30 a.m.,<br />
weather and wind permitting.<br />
Between the launches, the<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> community has<br />
traditionally rolled out the<br />
red carpet, providing myriad<br />
activities, including in years<br />
past a block party and candlestick<br />
glow on Main Street followed<br />
by a fireworks display.<br />
The candlestick glow is a<br />
magical vision of balloon baskets<br />
with their burners lit.<br />
If festivals from previous<br />
years are any indication, this<br />
year’s will showcase local<br />
food producers and restaurants;<br />
offer a craft fair, farmers’<br />
market, museum tour,<br />
concerts and more; and feature<br />
the annual Moon Glow, a<br />
spectacular evening display<br />
of hot air balloons illuminated<br />
from within that light up<br />
in rhythm to music provided<br />
by a DJ.

“Sponsors are crucial to<br />
the success of the balloon festival.<br />
They make it possible<br />
for the event to occur free of<br />
charge,” said festival co-chair<br />
Lisa Pembroke. “We couldn’t<br />
do it without them!”<br />
Sponsorship opportunities<br />
range from smaller donations<br />
to the sponsorship of an<br />
entire balloon with benefits<br />
that may include free rides<br />
along with free tickets to pilot<br />
events.<br />
The event also is funded by<br />
sales of official Balloon<br />
Festival merchandise, including<br />
T-shirts, mugs and more.<br />

Since 1966, New Skete has<br />
been a peaceful presence in<br />
southern Washington County.<br />
The Eastern Orthodox monks<br />
and nuns of New Skete strive<br />
to worship authentically and<br />
intensely and share with the<br />
broader community their<br />
efforts to translate the essentials<br />
of early Christian<br />
monasticism into American<br />
culture.<br />
In 1967 the monks cleared<br />
the steep and rocky land on<br />
the mountain to begin building<br />
their monastery. Today,<br />
in addition to the monks’ private<br />
living quarters, there are<br />
classrooms, a gift shop, two<br />
guest rooms and two parlors.<br />
The nuns of New Skete<br />
arrived in 1969 and built their<br />
monastery about four miles<br />
west of the monks’ on<br />
Ashgrove Road. Their monastery<br />
includes a kitchen, bedrooms,<br />
dining area, community<br />
rooms, a small chapel for<br />
daily services, an art studio,<br />
guest areas, library, workshops<br />
and bakery, along with<br />
a tiny gift shop for the sale of<br />
the nuns’ famous cheesecakes,<br />
seasonal brandied<br />
fruitcakes and other treats.<br />
Explore monastic life at New Skete<br />
In 1983 the community of<br />
the Companions of New<br />
Skete, a fellowship of lay people<br />
who seek to be formally<br />
connected with the New Skete<br />
communities to deepen their<br />
spiritual lives, built Emmaus<br />
House on the monks’ land,<br />
and it now serves as the<br />
monks’ main guest house.<br />
New Skete has two churches<br />
at the monks’ monastery.<br />
The first, a small temple<br />

The monks of New Skete dedicate themselves to providing the best possible companion<br />
dogs.<br />
topped with eight small but<br />
distinctive gold cupolas or<br />
“onion” domes was built in<br />
1969 and is dedicated to the<br />
Transfiguration of Christ. A<br />
larger church dedicated to<br />
Holy Wisdom was built in<br />
1983 by the monks and local<br />
carpenters to accommodate<br />
the monastic communities,<br />
local parishioners and the<br />
growing number of retreatants<br />
and visitors.<br />
The nuns of New Skete make cheesecakes that ‘give new meaning to the term heavenly.’<br />
All are welcome to join the<br />
monks and nuns in worship.<br />
The divine services at New<br />
Skete are the single most<br />
important work of the members<br />
in common. They are<br />
sung for the spiritual benefit<br />
of all who participate in them<br />
and for all who are commemorated<br />
during their celebrations.<br />
Two important aspects are<br />
immediately obvious to the<br />
listener. First, most of the<br />
priest’s prayers are sung<br />
aloud for all to hear. Second,<br />
all the services have been<br />
translated into contemporary<br />
American literary English.<br />
As with the layout, design,<br />
and furnishing of the church<br />
building, both music, and<br />
texts, and the structure and<br />
movement, of the liturgical<br />
services, form an integral<br />
whole. Every element of it<br />
must help lead the worshipper<br />
to a further experience of<br />
the presence of Christ in our<br />
midst.<br />
Both of the monastic com-

munities at New Skete are<br />
self-supporting and receive no<br />
financial support from the<br />
national church. They are<br />
sustained financially through<br />
charitable donations and the<br />
work of their own hands. The<br />
communities, since their<br />
founding, have worked in<br />
liturgical arts, producing<br />
icons and publishing liturgical<br />
books and music. In addition,<br />
the monks are world-famous<br />
for breeding German<br />
Shepherds and their dog<br />
training programs, whereas<br />
the nuns are known for their<br />
heavenly cheesecakes.<br />
The monks’ love for their<br />
first German Shepherd dog<br />
Kir led them to begin breeding,<br />
raising and socializing<br />
these intelligent and beautiful<br />
animals. Today, the monks of<br />
New Skete dedicate themselves<br />
to providing the best<br />
possible companion dogs.<br />
Based on their experience<br />
and expertise, the monks<br />
have written extensively on<br />
the relationship of dogs and<br />
people. They also offer a<br />
course of dog training that<br />
includes standard AKC obedience<br />
and incorporates the values<br />
of the monastic environment.<br />
“The cheesecakes made by<br />
the Nuns of New Skete are,<br />
dare we say, divine? They<br />
give new meaning to the term<br />
heavenly,” said an article in<br />

the nuns’ cheesecakes.<br />
Three sisters and four<br />
employees typically bake<br />
twice a week following a highly<br />
efficient two-day process.<br />
They use 30-pound blocks of<br />
cream cheese and an amazing<br />
mixer that tips to pour the<br />
batter, saving the nuns from<br />
heavy lifting. The nuns’<br />
cheesecakes are available at<br />
their gift shop and at<br />
Hundreds of people visit<br />
New Skete each year. The<br />
meditation gardens with a<br />
waterfall feature provide a<br />
soothing area for reflection<br />
and relaxation. Hiking trails<br />
with stone walls, spring runnels<br />
and various grades from<br />
flat to mildly steep are open<br />
to the public. Group tours for<br />
10 or more people are available<br />
by appointment. School<br />
and youth groups may also<br />
book field trips. Individuals<br />
looking for a spiritual retreat<br />
may make arrangements to<br />
stay at the guest house.<br />
Several themed retreats, public<br />
events and a dog training<br />
workshop are held annually.<br />
The monks’ monastery is<br />
located at 273 New Skete Rd.,<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong>, New York. The<br />
nuns’ monastery is at 345<br />
Ashgrove Rd., also in<br />

Food pantry provides sustenance for body and spirit<br />
Affiliated with the Regional Food<br />
Bank of Northeastern New York, the<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> Food Pantry and Christian<br />
Outreach Center offers food from the<br />
four major food groups as well as paper<br />
supplies to those in need.<br />
Each week, approximately 30 volunteers<br />
pick up groceries, stock shelves<br />
and serve anywhere from 120 to 150 families<br />
in the <strong>Cambridge</strong> Central School<br />
District.<br />
No one who visits the pantry will ever<br />
leave hungry. Even if an individual or<br />
family is not from within the pantry’s<br />
distribution area, staff will provide food<br />
and assistance in accessing a food pantry<br />
in their home area if possible.<br />
In the face of Covid-19, the food pantry<br />
has made a few changes in the way it<br />
distributes goods to recipients. These<br />
days, cars pull into the driveway, a tally<br />
is made of family members and staff fill<br />
food boxes and load them into the trunks<br />
of recipients’ cars.<br />
In addition to providing food through<br />
the pantry, the organization’s backpack<br />
program for students in kindergarten<br />
through 12th grade provides breakfast<br />
and lunch for weekends and during<br />
vacations when needy students are not<br />
receiving breakfast or lunch at school.<br />

on Friday afternoons.<br />
The food pantry’s weekly Friday community<br />
lunch program and Code Blue<br />
affiliation are not currently in operation.<br />
Since 2015, the Code Blue site had provided<br />
a warm shelter for those who were<br />
homeless or had inadequate heating<br />
during the winter’s coldest nights.<br />
Pantry hours are Wednesdays from 1<br />
p.m. to 3 p.m., Fridays from 4 p.m. to 6<br />
p.m. and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.<br />
