Guilderland

On Wednesday, Feb. 14, the Guilderland Nordic Ski Team competed in the Section 2 championships at the North Creek Ski Bowl on a cold and windy day. Guilderland will be sending four skiers to the state competition in Lake Placid.

“Guilderland is one of those schools that was historically not fully funded,” said Andrew Van Alstyne, displaying a chart that showed over the last decade Guilderland was underfunded by $4 million to $5 million each year — a gap that decreased with the phase-in until Guilderland was fully funded with $25 million in Foundation Aid this year.

 Dr. Karamdeep Singh is under contract to purchase the 1.82-acre site from Michael Davidson, who twice before came to the town looking to build a smaller mixed-use project.  

The historic Dutch barn in what is now Guilderland was built before the American Revolution, Corey Nellis said, with hand-hewn chestnut beams. The American chestnut — once called the redwood of the East because of its huge size — was wiped out by blight more than a century ago.

“Diversity is driving a lot of what we do in our town,” said Supervisor Peter Barber.
