The Lake Champlain-Lake George Regional Planning Board and Adirondack/Glens Falls Transportation Council (A/GFTC) have launched two surveys as part of a Rural Workforce Transportation Plan.
The Plan and surveys are focused on Warren and Washington County employees and employers.
The Rural Workforce Transportation Plan is one recommendation from the Regional Planning Board’s 2021 Forward Together: Economic Resiliency Plan. In addition to the surveys, the planning board will be conducting a series of focus group meetings in early 2023 to consider strategies to improve rural workforce mobility.
The surveys will remain open through the end of the year. Employees and employers in Warren and Washington Counties are encouraged to participate in the five-minute survey to help further this important regional initiative.
Surveys can be found at the planning board website, www.lclgrpb.org.

The National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame’s fourth annual Photo Finish exhibition has opened in the von Stade Gallery and will remain on display through Feb. 5.
The exhibit’s images will also be available on the Museum’s website at racingmuseum.org/exhibits/photo-finish-juried-photography-exhibition. The online exhibition will be available through October 2023.
Photo Finish features selected amateur and professional photographs that document the entire racing experience, from the farm and the backstretch to the winner’s circle. Each image captures an element of the strength, beauty, and emotion of the sport of racing. Photographers from 17 states and Ireland are represented in the exhibit.
Remi Bellocq, Alicia Hughes, Sally Jeffords, and Todd Marks, served as the judges for Photo Finish, providing representation from the racing and arts communities.
The call for submissions for the fifth annual Photo Finish exhibition will be announced in 2023.
