BRIER HILL — Self-proclaimed as a“group of guys who like to go fast on lawnmowers,” the Northern New York LawnMower Racers have an ambitious 13-raceschedule slated for the summer of 2011.

“There are guys who take it very serious-ly. These engines are pushed to the max,”said Daniel F. Ward, Brier Hill, a racinggroup member and four-year veteran of

lawn mower racing.Running from early June until mid-Sep-

tember, the Norwood-based racing asso-ciation features six classes and 13 sched-uled events, Mr. Ward said. Classes includejuniors, powder puff, super sport, sports-

man, pro-stock and pro-modified.Mr. Ward said the local club is affiliated

with American Racing Mowers Associa-tion, making all the group’s events fully in-sured and more safety-minded than unaf-filiated races.

The level of competition and commit-ment, he said, is up to the individual racer.

For Mr. Ward, who raced last year in thepro-modified class, the level of commit-ment is high. He said he modified a 16-

horsepower, V-twin, “very low-end” lawn-mower into a 55-horsepower racing beast.

“And that’s small by club standards,” hesaid. “I’ve seen 25-horses turned into 90-horses. Scary.”

He said most sought-after for lawnmow-er drags are light, sheet-metal mowers.

“We remove all mowing apparatus,blades, decks and any levers that might get

SARANAC LAKE — “Local Fare,” agallery display at Pendragron Theatre, 15Brandy Brook Ave., showcases works in-spired by the environs in which artistsSandra Hildreth and Larry Poole live. Theexhibit opens June 11 and runs until July16.

Ms. Hildreth grew up in Wisconsin andgraduated with a bachelor of fine arts de-gree in painting and drawing from WesternKentucky University.

After 31 years as a certified art teacher inpublic schools and universities, she retiredto live in Saranac Lake.

“I now devote the majority of my time tomy painting and outdoor activities in theAdirondacks. I primarily paint “en plein

air” — working outdoors on location.However, every spring I am also inspiredby the many wildflowers that reappear.Like John James Audubon, who recordedthe plants and animals in the early 1800’s, Ienjoy studying every detail and compos-ing paintings that are both accurate andaesthetically pleasing.”

Larry Poole lives and does his printmak-

ing in Saranac Lake.“Working in the field of non-toxic print-

making allows me to combine the cen-turies old process of intaglio printmakingwith the modern world of digital imagingand the “computer darkroom.” In gather-ing images for my work, I am attracted tobuilding fronts, window displays, people,items whose time has passed, and the oc-

casional plant or flower.”For further information see the theater’s

website, pendragontheatre.org, contactthe theater by phone at 1 (518) 891-1854 oremail [email protected].

SARANAC LAKE — “Local Fare,” agallery display at Pendragron Theatre, 15Brandy Brook Ave., showcases works in-spired by the environs in which artistsSandra Hildreth and Larry Poole live. Theexhibit opens June 11 and runs until July16.

Ms. Hildreth grew up in Wisconsin andgraduated with a bachelor of fine arts de-gree in painting and drawing from WesternKentucky University.

After 31 years as a certified art teacher inpublic schools and universities, she retiredto live in Saranac Lake.

“I now devote the majority of my time tomy painting and outdoor activities in theAdirondacks. I primarily paint “en plein

air” — working outdoors on location.However, every spring I am also inspiredby the many wildflowers that reappear.Like John James Audubon, who recordedthe plants and animals in the early 1800’s, Ienjoy studying every detail and compos-ing paintings that are both accurate andaesthetically pleasing.”

Larry Poole lives and does his printmak-

ing in Saranac Lake.“Working in the field of non-toxic print-

making allows me to combine the cen-turies old process of intaglio printmakingwith the modern world of digital imagingand the “computer darkroom.” In gather-ing images for my work, I am attracted tobuilding fronts, window displays, people,items whose time has passed, and the oc-

casional plant or flower.”For further information see the theater’s

website, pendragontheatre.org, contactthe theater by phone at 1 (518) 891-1854 oremail [email protected].

BRIER HILL — Self-proclaimed as a“group of guys who like to go fast on lawnmowers,” the Northern New York LawnMower Racers have an ambitious 13-raceschedule slated for the summer of 2011.

“There are guys who take it very serious-ly. These engines are pushed to the max,”said Daniel F. Ward, Brier Hill, a racinggroup member and four-year veteran of

lawn mower racing.Running from early June until mid-Sep-

tember, the Norwood-based racing asso-ciation features six classes and 13 sched-uled events, Mr. Ward said. Classes includejuniors, powder puff, super sport, sports-

man, pro-stock and pro-modified.Mr. Ward said the local club is affiliated

with American Racing Mowers Associa-tion, making all the group’s events fully in-sured and more safety-minded than unaf-filiated races.

The level of competition and commit-ment, he said, is up to the individual racer.

For Mr. Ward, who raced last year in thepro-modified class, the level of commit-ment is high. He said he modified a 16-

horsepower, V-twin, “very low-end” lawn-mower into a 55-horsepower racing beast.

“And that’s small by club standards,” hesaid. “I’ve seen 25-horses turned into 90-horses. Scary.”

He said most sought-after for lawnmow-er drags are light, sheet-metal mowers.

“We remove all mowing apparatus,blades, decks and any levers that might get
