(Chuck) Farley cannot be mea· sured in words. Farley, 37, died on Monday as the result of a heart ailment at St. Peter's Hospital in Al­ bany. AssistantcoachJohn Sittig, who had worked with Farley over the past Chuck Farley past 10 years;tried his best to sum things up. "This program meant everything to Chuck. He told us he just wanted to give something back. ... He was the greatest person I knew. You learned a lot about life.

By Mel Hyman All indications are that ground Will finally be broken for Delmar Village - a mix of 56 single-family homes and 232 apartments - sometime this fall. "I think it's safe to anticipate" work will begin on the extension of FIsher Boulevard sometime this construction season, said project manager Paul Hite. Construction of the FIsher Boulevard extension, which will run for about one mile between Delaware Avenue and Or­ chard Street, is the necessary first step before any of the homes or apartments can be built. The extension is going to be an expensive proposition, Hite said. It's been about eight years since the project plans were unveiled and construction costs have increased significantly over that time. It will also mean a considerable number of construction jobs once the ball gets roiling, Hite said. "It creates jobs for everybody. It's something we really need in New York State right now." HMC Associates - a partnership of state Sen. Howard Nolan Jr. and Norris MacFarland ~ has been busy tying up loose ends on the project this summer, Hite noted. The project o PROJECT/Page.5

Alta:mont Fair marks centennial By Erin E. Sullivan Where can you go to see a Siberian tiger, ride a soaring dragon and enjoy .100 years of tradition? The Altamont Fair, of course. The fair, which is scheduled this year for Monday through Sunday, Aug. 17 to 23, at the Altamont fairgrounds, is celebrating its l00th year of bringing city and county residents together in a festive atmosphere. The Altamont Fair started out as the Albany County Fair, expanded to the Albany and Schenectady County Fair and is now known as the Albany, Schenectady and Greene County Fair. It is the only three-county fair in New York State. The firstfair in Albany County, which took place in 1819, was cal1ed the "Agricultural Jubilee" or "Plough Boy's holiday." From 1819 to 1892, fairs were held in different places in Albany County, including Ravena. Although at different times the fair has been called the Albany County Agricultural Society and Exposition and The Sunllower Fair, the name has always returned to the Altamont Fair. This centennial commemorates the fair's first year at its current location in Altamont. "Once a wheel is round, it is hard to make it rounder," said Fred Hart, publicity director at the Altamont Fair. "We are not going to have anyone like Bob Hope here to kick off the fair, but the key to the anniversary celebration is that the fair will be bigger and better." . Just about everything at the Altamont Fair wil1 be upgraded this year, including the midway. The Reithoffer Shows has developed a grand Kiddie land with new and improved rides for the "small fry." Rides include the Grande Carousel, which holds 68 adults or 72 o FAIR! page 45 .. \

Tamed tigers of the Royal Hanneford Circus, the Chitwood.Thrill Show and a wide array of animals will be part of the Altamont Fair's IOOth Anniversary Celebration from Monday, Aug. 17, to Sunday, Aug, 23, .Celtic Festival features bagpipe competition By Michael Kagan St. Patrick's Day isn't coming for awhile yet, but at Hunter Mountain this weekend, you can soak up enough Irish culture to tide you over 'til the official wearin' '0 the green. From Friday, Aug. 14, to Sunday, Aug. 16, visitors in the northern Catskills will be entertained by the music and dance of Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Brittany in Hunter's Celtic Festival. . "It's an interesting festival because even though you get a lot of Irish and a lot of Scotsmen attending it, so do other people," said Guy Patrick Garraghan, managing director of the Hunter Mountain Summer Festivals. "I don't care if they're German or if they're Polish. They all seem to come and enjoy this one event. "It's just a good blend of Irish and Scottish folk dance and music." A variety of individual groups come to perform at the festival, including North Sea Gas, from Edinburgh, Scotland, Canadian group The Brigadoons, and Fannigans Isle of Ohio. Additionally, the Amerscot Highland Pipe Band will perform each day, as will the 1Fdfu.1'•• /,k < ~ Irish Step Dancers and the Highland Dancers. Bagpipe bands proceed down Hunter Mountain in the annual Celtic Festival's maes march last year. This year, the festival will begin on Irish dance lessons will be available to al1 in attendance, and there will be a Frlday, Aug. 14, and conclude with the mass march on Sunday, Aug. 16.
