SUMMARY:Sketching the Adirondacks\, by Edward Pitts
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Program \nIn the summer of 1851\, long before the central Adirondacks became a vacation destination\, two young landscape painters crossed the region all the way from Lowville to Crown Point looking for wilderness scenes to sketch. Jervis McEntee and his friend Joseph Tubby would go on to become respected landscape painters. Guided by Asa Puffer\, a local woodsman\, they walked and paddled over 200 miles not including side trips. As they travelled\, they met every working Adirondack guide of those times as well as many early settlers\, hermits and a surprising number of other travelers. \nThis epic sketching trip has received little notice until now. Fortunately\, the artists both kept journals\, and McEntee’s handwritten journal has been preserved in the collection of the research library of the Adirondack Experience. The story of the sketching trip is based on McEntee’s journal as well as a host of other obscure original sources including Tubby’s journal\, newspaper articles\, letters and a formerly anonymous magazine article. \nBased on this research\, and using the tools of literary non-fiction\, Pitts has fashioned a series of thirty letters that the artists could have written. These letters allow the reader to become deeply familiar with the artists and their experience of the pristine Adirondack wilderness. Every letter is followed by an author’s note that explains the factual basis for the claims in the letters. The book also contains illustrations by McEntee and original maps tracing the route. \nAbout the Author:\nEdward Pitts is a retired attorney and former Social Security Administrative Law Judge who lives in Syracuse\, NY. He now spends his time researching\, writing and lecturing about Adirondack history. Syracuse University Press has published two of his Adirondack history books: Beaver River Country: an Adirondack History (2022) and Sketching the Adirondacks; Letters from the Wilderness (2025). His articles on Adirondack history have appeared in Adirondack Life\, Adirondac\, LOCALadk\, and online on Adirondack Almanack and the New York Almanack. He also maintains a blog of short illustrated articles titled Annals of the Beaver River. He is a member of the Rap-Shaw Club on Stillwater Reservoir in the west-central Adirondacks where he was president of the board of directors from 2011 until 2016. Before becoming a lawyer\, he taught philosophy courses at St. Bonaventure University and at the Pennsylvania State University.

SUMMARY:Taps & Trivia at Peak 47 Lake Placid
DESCRIPTION:Taps & Trivia is back for its fifth season! Join us at Peak 47 in Lake Placid on Wednesday\, November 4th for four rounds of Adirondack-themed trivia and a bit of friendly competition.\nThis season’s kickoff is presented in collaboration with Lake Placid artist Ingrid Van Slyke and will feature a special trivia category inspired by her new painting series Between Towns: Roads\, Land\, Community\, with several of her works on view for the evening. Whether you’re an expert on all things Adirondack\, or just looking for a fun night out\, everyone is welcome – it’s free to play\, and prizes will be award to the winning teams! \nWhat to Know: \n\nFree to Play\nNo pre-registration required\nTrivia is free\nPrizes awarded to top-performing teams at every event!\n\nIngrid Van Slyke earned her M.F.A. in Painting from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2023. Her work has been featured in national and international exhibitions and publications\, including the Pastel Society of America’s Enduring Brilliance exhibitions at the National Arts Club and the Salmagundi Club in New York City. Her paintings are also held in the permanent collection of the Adirondack Experience Museum. \nBased in Lake Placid\, New York\, Ingrid’s work is deeply rooted in the Adirondack landscape. Working primarily in soft pastel\, she explores the shifting effects of light\, color\, atmosphere\, and form through a loose\, impressionistic approach. Her paintings are inspired by the quiet moments and constant changes found in nature\, seeking to capture not only the appearance of a place\, but the feeling of being within it. \nAn experienced educator\, Ingrid teaches soft pastel painting to individuals and groups and regularly speaks and presents for museums and arts organizations. She is represented by Gallery 46 in Lake Placid.\nIngrid lives with her family in the Adirondacks\, where the surrounding landscape continues to provide an endless source of inspiration and discovery for her work.

SUMMARY:The Confederacy Myth\, by Connor Williams
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Program \nConnor Williams’s The Confederacy Myth answers that question with a blistering historical exposé that reframes our understanding of the Confederacy towards what it really was – a relatively small insurrection of uncompromising fanatics that plunged the nation into its deadliest war. \nIn his new book\, Williams reveals the truth about the Confederacy by unraveling its myths and uncovering its perilous political tactics\, irate ideologies\, reckless brand of warfare\, impotent governance\, and enduring commitment to slavery. Most importantly\, Williams reminds us why the United States prevailed in the Civil War: five out of six Americans resisted the Confederate insurgency and instead put everything on the line to fight for democracy so that our Republic would have a new birth of freedom. \nThe Confederacy Myth is at once an eye-opening work of history as well as a timely reminder of our duties as citizens today. \nAbout the Author:\nA public historian working between the traditions of academia and the exigencies of current events\, Connor Williams shares the stories of our past to help shape the societies of our future. In 2021 and 2022 he worked for the United States Congress as Lead Historian for their bipartisan and supermajority-supported “Naming Commission\,” tasked with removing all Confederate honorifics from the Department of Defense and elevating new (and true) American heroes in their place. In addition to teaching at Middlebury College and serving as Senior Director of Historical Initiatives for the Sagamore Institute of the Adirondacks (a non-profit educational institution)\, Connor consults for and with institutions\, organizations\, and communities seeking to research\, reflect\, and ethically and effectively reconcile with histories of intolerance\, injustice and violence. The Confederacy Myth is his second book\, born largely from his doctoral training\, experiences working for Congress and studies of the American Civil War. \n

SUMMARY:Hike Strong by James Appleton
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Program \nThe Complete Guide to Building Mountain Strength\, Endurance\, and Confidence for Hiking and Backpacking is a practical training guide designed to help hikers prepare their bodies specifically for the demands of the trail. \nRather than simply telling hikers to walk more miles or do more cardio\, Hike Strong teaches readers how to combine strength training\, conditioning\, balance\, mobility\, and hiking-specific preparation to become stronger and more resilient in the mountains. \nThe book gives readers a step-by-step framework for developing the strength needed for steep climbs and descents\, the endurance required for long days on trail\, and the confidence to take on bigger hiking and backpacking objectives. It is written for everyone from recreational hikers who want the trail to feel easier to experienced hikers preparing for more ambitious mountain adventures. \nHike Strong was published by Falcon Guides in April 2026. \nAbout the Author:\nJames Appleton is an author\, strength coach\, and New York State Licensed Hiking Guide\, and host of the 46 of 46 Podcast. Based in Lake Placid\, New York\, in the heart of the Adirondack Mountains\, James has built a career around helping hikers and outdoor athletes become stronger\, more capable\, and more confident in the mountains. \nThrough his coaching programs\, content\, and Mountain Strength training methodology\, James works with hikers and backpackers of all ages preparing for everything from local mountain hikes to major backcountry adventures. His work focuses on bridging the gap between traditional strength training and the specific physical demands of hiking\, climbing\, and carrying a pack through rugged terrain. \nJames is the author of Hike Strong: The Complete Guide to Building Mountain Strength\, Endurance\, and Confidence for Hiking and Backpacking\, published by Falcon Guides\, amongst numerous others. He resides in Lake Placid\, NY with his wife and three daughters. \n
