On a day as clear and bright as Sept. 11, 2001, the wind blows a huge American flag suspended by Westmere and Guilderland fire trucks over the World Trade Center memorial at the Altamont fairgrounds. The memorial includes an actual piece from the Twin Towers. The display was part of a tribute held at the fairgrounds during Saturday’s demolition derby, delayed from Fair Week due to Tropical Storm Henri.

The Altamont Fire Department’s siren blared at 8:46 a.m. last Saturday, signifying the first plane that hit the World Trade Center in New York City on Sept. 11, 2001.

“Literally every inch of the space is transformed in some way,” said library Director Timothy Wiles, noting a large part of that is cosmetic since the library has all new carpets, furniture, and paint. “We’re so thankful to people for their patience,” he said.

“No information was used for identity theft or fraud,” Superintendent Marie Wiles told The Enterprise.

The family of Newton Ronan would like to invite his friends and loved ones to a celebration of his life at Altamont Reformed Church at 129 Lincoln Ave. at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 19, 2021. As Dad wished, there will be singing, so if you’re vaccinated masks are optional. All unvaccinated people are required to be masked. 

GUILDERLAND — Early Monday morning, before anyone was at Guilderland High School, “a threat came across on Instagram,” said Superintendent Marie Wiles.

The district worked with the Guilderland Police who investigated, she told The Enterprise, and it was determined the threat “was not credible.”
