Water treatment worker rescues fawn
Saugerties water department superintendent Mike Hopf shared a heartwarming story at the village board’s regular meeting on Monday, July 15. “On arrival to work today [water treatment operator] Billy Voerg saw a fawn trapped in one of our lagoons. I was told it was cold and tired and needed help so the staff went into troubleshooting mode, how best to save the deer. We decided it would be best to do it by hand, so Billy put on his waders and traversed down the lagoon wall into the lagoon and scooped up the fawn, who welcomed him, into his arms and placed it in the sun, where it could dry; we fed it an apple slice and then a short time later, the worried mother — the grateful mother — came out and they were reunited.”

Craft cocktails are the star of the show at The Hereafter, which debuted in late February. Organized into categories including Classy, Deep, and Eccentric, the bar’s libations (think: the tequila blanco-and pineapple brandy-stiffened Tiger) cater to a wide range of tastes. Not in the mood for a mixed drink? Order a pint at Union Street Brewing Co., which arrived on the local beer scene last summer with its roster of IPAs and lagers. Still have room for something sweet (and, arguably, healthy)? Swing by Culture Cream, where fermented ingredients add good-for-the-gut probiotics to handmade ice creams and popsicles in flavors such as vanilla-cardamom kefir and coconut-lime kombucha.

Hataałiinez Wheeler and Albert Haskie, Guests for the Full Hour
REPEAT SHOW. Tiokasin is joined by two guests for the full hour. Hataałiinez Wheeler is a very modern kind of crooner: a pensive, deep-voiced troubadour whose serene surf-country songs tap into the hope and despondency of a new generation. The music he makes as Hataałii — a Navajo term that means “to sing,” a fitting diminutive of his given name — is at turns witty and world-weary, sunny but endearingly solipsistic. Albert Haskie is a software developer from the Navajo Nation. He is the creator of the app Adoone’é. Serving as the lead developer in the project, Albert has strived to uphold his culture and traditions as a Navajo/Diné. It is his deep-rooted belief that everyone should have access to the resources that preserve and celebrate their Navajo/Diné heritage. Albert finds great joy in tackling Navajo/Diné language and culture preservation in the 21st century. With Adoone’é he aims to contribute to his community and empower others to do the same. Albert says that “Together, we can foster a world where Navajo/Diné individuals can achieve fluency in the Navajo/Diné language.” Read. More about Hataałiinez Wheeler here: https://bit.ly/44LBdUI.
