Isn't she just wonderful ❤

Thank you for this great program and your discussion of “Remains of America’s Jewish Vacationland.”An unusual path led me to the Borscht Belt from Rhode Island, which was a kind of different way to access the area. My mother and uncle both attended a Jewish socialist camp in the Catskills in the early 1930s.The Catskills were mentioned in that regard while I was growing up. My direct link to the area came when I traveled in and out of Swan Lake in 1971 and got to go to the Stevensville while spending some weekends in a vacation home directly across from that hotel. I had planned to return to the area last summer, 2023, for the dedication of the historical marker in Swan Lake, but was not able to go. I see from the presentation that there is one more marker event this summer and perhaps I can go. Here’s a bit of nostalgia and a cliché: You can take the woman or the man out of the Catskills of the Borscht Belt era, but you can’t take the Borscht Belt era out of the woman or the man.

I'd love to visit there sometime.I live near Albany.

You did an awesome job .. Dad would be super proud ..

Excellent. Remembering All those who suffered enslavement. Thank you for telling this story of handcrafted coffins and heightening awareness of this History. May we remember our Ancestors and these Sacred sites and battlegrounds of Transatlantic Slave Trade.

They are my heroes. ❤

Thank you for your generous support, Preservation League of NY! It has been transformative for our community-centered historic site museum.

Thinking of hiking this trail this spring. How is it?

"My hope is that economic development embraces preservation to undertake revitalization of communities, because historic buildings are a way to our future, and without them, we have no past" we couldn't have said it better ourselves Elise Johnson-Schmidt! Congratulations to the winners!

I like your philosophy Julie.

We just were there last Friday did the 10 mile round trip hike!!! Often wonder how they brought all materials in mid 1800s!!!

History through the lenses of another race hustling liberal white woman

Not a very good tour of the camp/grounds

I know that place! Wonderful job, Steve - for thirty-something years.

Until the early twentieth century, most African Americans lived in the agricultural south of the United States, where they were primarily employed in the harvesting and processing of cotton. After the end of slavery as a result of the Civil War (1861-1865), some black citizens had the opportunity to move to the industrialized north of the country and thus escape the racism and discrimination that prevailed in the South. But this was only a small percentage of the total number of former slaves. Later, the flow of migration increased dramatically due to seven factors: 1. World War I and the resulting loss of male population increased the demand for labor in the Northern states. 2. At the same time as the demand for labor in the North increased, the demand for labor in the South decreased sharply due to the invention of the cotton picker. Its inventor, John Daniel Rust, worked on it almost his entire life and eventually created a model that was in great demand at home and abroad. 3. The newspaper The Chicago Defender played a huge role in informing African Americans living in the South about the ways and means of relocation, the constitutional rights of citizens, the necessary legal steps involved in relocation, the demand for labor in the North, etc. The newspaper's publisher, Robert Abbott, devoted his entire career to helping African Americans. Although the paper was published in Chicago, two-thirds of its readership was concentrated in the South. 4 The invention and spread of synthetic fabrics made of artificial fibers reduced the need for cotton and thus the need for labor in the southern states. 5. The widespread use of railroad trains and then the automobile contributed greatly to the mobility of the African American population. 6. World War II again increased the demand for labor in the industrialized northern states due to the shortage of male population. 7. The extensive construction of the interstate highway system in the 1950s made any northern state in the country easily accessible to African Americans. This huge flow of population from the southern states to the northern states (i.e., those above the Mason-Dixon line) has been called The Great Migration. All of this is mentioned in David Halberstam's excellent book The Fifties by David Halberstam (1993)

These apartments are beautiful 😍❤️😍

Amazing place! My question regarding the Adirondacks is "How did those people, back then, avoid the Black flies?"

Hello - I wanted to say thank you for preserving this house. My ancestors lived in that house. My six times great granduncle was Alexander McNaughton who was born on the Isle of Islay in Scotland. He traveled to NY in 1738 with a number of other Scottish Highlanders looking for a new start. He was instrumental in the formation of the Argyle Patent lands and was the owner of Lot 32 which includes this house and at that time 600 acres. Alexander McNaughton was the justice of the peace for Argyle and played an important role during his life. He issued an arrest warrant for Ethan Allen during the Revolutionary War. I would love to visit the home and graveyard sometime. I live in Ohio and have traced my ancestors back to this house and all the way back to Scotland. Bravo to you for saving this part of my history and heritage. Brian Reed.

What a fabulous article! It was great to hear Steve talk about what he does and the acknowledgement is the icing on the cake.

Congratulations Steve! You deserve it.

Thank you!!

I actually spent time there when I was a kid.. The Melvins owned it. My Grandparents helped open it up when Art and Helen where there. It was amazing..I actually have one of the original candle sticks..It has a memorable spot in my heart.

Im gonna comment because this is a piece of history

I got this on my reconditions randomly

Now they migrate out of N.Y.

Dorothy was my art teacher when i was 8 years old !! She encouraged me to study art at Carnegie Tech her Alma Mater now CMU Mellon, which I did. Later I visited and stayed with her several times in this magical house. In 2014 I was invited to have a one woman show in the Gallery, called Paradise Gone? I found Dorothy the inspiration for finding my life"s course in spite of all obstacles ... she was an amazing influence for beauty and for searching for ones unique way.

I discovered Santanoni this past summer for the first time and absolutely fell in love with this marvel of the Adirondacks. Since then, I’ve camped at one of the campsites three times and visited the place at least once every month. Now waiting on the December snows so I can ski in and do some winter camping throughout the season. Yeah, I sorta think the place is pretty cool.

It's a Honor I so Honored to have Known the people beyond All the Unions of men it takes to make it Outstanding.. Family's is Nichols and Galloway. Restoration. Amen the Master and trade. Thank you .

What a great story! Extremely entertaining! Such an impressive and inspirational example of perseverance and hard work with a great successful ending!

Evergreen. Wow. #SaveOurChildren
