Welcome Sittig Family



There is a guest commentary in todays Adirondack Daily Enterprise written by Mr. Dick Sittig. He an his wife are the ones that have purchased the old Wawbeek Hotel property. It's a letter that convinces me that the Sittigs treated the locals fairly as far as attempting to preserve the old Wawbeek buildings. I loved eating at the Wawbeek Restaurant. But there is not that much special about the building other than the location and the unusual fireplace/staircase (and the fact it's relatively old). The Sittigs own the property and should be allowed to do what they want with it within the boundries of the law. We have and would give that right to anyone already living in the area.

It's time to for us to welcome this family to the Adirondacks, whether they live here year round or only in the summer.

I was just about to write the very same sentiments. We look forward to meeting you at the association get-togethers this summer!
