SALEM The Salem Courthouse Community Center

The Courthouse, which was designed by noted architect Marcus Cummings and constructed in 1869, is a historically significant building which serves as the anchor of the Salem Historic District.

Funding for the exhibit was provided by LARAC, with pub-lic funds from the New York State Council on the Arts Decentralization Program. Additional funding from the Shoppe Off Broadway thrift store and the Dr. Asa Fitch Historical Society helped to make the exhibit a reality.

The CCC notes that LARAC has also provided funding for a 2012 chamber music series in the courtroom. Under the direc-tion of concert pianist and con-ductor Daniel Shulman, Music in the Courtroom will bring a diverse group of noted musi-cians for 7 p.m. concerts on April 15, May 13 and June 17.

Ice FishingCOSSAYUNA After a warm

start, winters chill has finally settled over Washington County. Cossayuna Lake is frozen and ready for the Fourth Annual Ice Fishing Tournament and 50/50

Raffle, hosted by the Cossayuna L a k e Improvement A s s o c i a t i o n (CLIA). The

event takes place from 7 a.m. to 3:30

p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 4.Its always a good time, said

organizer Tom Schultz. Thats what ice fishing is all about. He noted the tourney brings a lot of family groups to the lake for day of camaraderie and fish-ing.

The event typically draws about 85 people, with some trav-eling from as far as Maine and Pennsylvania in hopes of catch-ing a trophy fish. A 42-inch Muskie caught in the first year of the tournament was the larg-est winner to date.

Entrance fee is $10 per person, with cash prizes paid to those catching the largest pike or tiger muskie, largest perch, and largest crappie. Measuring will take place near Pratts Point at the orange flag.

Fishermen may register in person the day of the event and

buy bait at the Lakeside General Store at the southern end of the lake on Rt. 49. A valid New York State fishing license is required. Entrants can purchase a three-day license at any town hall or Walmart that will cover them for the weekend.

The 50/50 Raffle is open to the public; it is not necessary to enter the fishing tournament to purchase a ticket.

The chances of catching a fish are very good, Schultz commented. He noted that the lake already has eight inches of ice and expects that it will have a depth about 12 inches by Feb. 4.
