There’s plenty of sporty activity at the Altamont Fair, including Ricochet a 14-month old Australian Shepherd, catching a Frisbee on Tuesday as part of the Disc-Connected K9s. Kate Zarbo rides King, a Utopia Percheron horse, and Sean Harwick, 8, draws back an arrow, aiming to shoot at balloons, animal targets, and haystacks.

  • VOORHEESVILLE — Two Voorheesville 8-year-olds — Maxwell Mallinson and Camron Kremer — have qualified to participate in a Professional Golfers’ Association Aug. 20 competition at Turningstone where they will compete with the best junior golfers in upstate New York.

  • Camaraderie, said Coach Sean Davidson, is a major contributor to the team’s success. “We have solid defense, offensive power, and speed on the base paths ….,” he said. “On top of that, it’s amazing how well the kids all get along and all support each other. These kids really are friends in addition to teammates. It’s like a never-ending series of multi-night sleepovers once school gets out.”
