Written by Saratoga TODAY on . Posted in Entertainment.

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Saratoga Performing Arts Center’s 2024-2025 dance season at Spa Little Theater features modern dance troupes A.I.M by Kyle Abraham (Nov.9 & 10) and Flamenco Vivo Carlota Santana (March 8 & 9) for the world premiere of its new work “Quinto Elemento.” 

 “Our year-round home in Spa Little Theater has truly become a vibrant hub for all genres of music, dance, and theater. In addition to the presentation of and education in the arts, we are also proud of our role as a commissioner and incubator of new and exciting works,” Elizabeth Sobol, President and CEO of Saratoga Performing Arts Center, said in a statement. 

Kicking off the series is A.I.M by Kyle Abraham with two performances that feature the company’s signature tapestry of Black and Queer stories, intertwined with a sensual and provocative vocabulary and a strong emphasis on music, text, video, and visual art. The performances mark the SPAC debut of the company, following the success of Kyle Abraham’s two New York City Ballet works The Runaway and Love Letter (on shuffle), which held their SPAC debuts in 2019 and 2023, respectively. 

Also highlighting the season is SPAC debut of Flamenco Vivo Carlota Santana, which will showcase the world premiere of its new evening-length work “Quinto Elemento” (Fifth Element) with this appearance. 

Set to an original score of live music and choreographed by Patricia Guerrero, internationally acclaimed flamenco dancer-choreographer, the new work explores the fifth element of the earth, ether, the essence that makes up the space around us. Guerrero embraces chaos through choreography, building from flamenco’s expressive movement language while venturing beyond its current aesthetic bounds.

 The news follows the announcement of SPAC’s inaugural McCormack Jazz Series in the Spa Little Theater and is part of SPAC’s mission to present year-round programming. Additional programming for the 2024-2025 Spa Little Theater season will be announced soon. 

The programming is as follows:  A.I.M by Kyle Abraham – Saturday, Nov. 9 at 7 p.m., and Sunday, Nov. 10 at 2 p.m.; Flamenco Vivo Carlota Santana – Saturday, March 8, 2025 at 7 p.m., and  Sunday, March 9 at 2 p.m.

Linda (Eacker) Van Iseghem 

Written by Saratoga TODAY on . Posted in Obituaries.

EAST SYRACUSE – Linda (Eacker) Van Iseghem of East Syracuse, NY, and most recently of Gansevoort, died Sunday, August 4, 2024 after a brief illness. She was 72.

Born in Little Falls, NY, Linda graduated from James A. Green High School in Dolgeville, NY and went on to obtain a degree as a Licensed Practical Nurse.

She dedicated her life to caregiving for her patients, her family, and her community. Beginning as a candy striper at 16, Linda loved all her nursing staff positions, including the maternity wing at Little Falls and Nathan Littauer Hospitals, Hospice in Florida, the Alzheimer’s unit at Wesley Healthcare, and caring for workers and their families as part of the Quad Graphics medical team.

Linda never saw a flower she didn’t want to plant in her garden. She devoted her free time to cooking and baking for her family and friends, canning applesauce, making sure hot chocolate chip cookies were fresh from the oven as soon as her grandkids walked through the door, and ensuring that birthdays and Christmases were extra special for her loved ones.

Throughout her life, Linda trained and volunteered for the American Red Cross, for which she was a prolific blood donor. She explored her artistic talents such as painting, drawing, and writing, she buzzed through thick books, snorkeled in the Caribbean, went fly fishing with her brother in the Battenkill, kayaked and canoed Lewey Lake, and hiked many trails in the Adirondacks and beyond. She even trained with her daughter and friends for the Lake Placid Half Marathon. Like her spirit animal the dolphin, Linda embraced and exuded peace and harmony with all those she encountered—such as her lifelong friends, and fellow nurses, Karen, Laura, Debbie, and Linda.

She is survived by her husband of nearly 53 years, Jack; her daughter, Lisa Millis (Chris) of Saratoga Springs; her twin grandsons, Harrison and Jack; her daughter, Sarah Lerro (Jeff) of East Syracuse; her granddaughter, Kate; her grandson, Clayton; her brother, George Eacker (Loretta); her nephew, Christopher of New Hampshire; and her favorite gardening companion, a mini golden doodle named Henry.

Her family thanks the palliative care team at Crouse Hospital for their compassion and Thomas J. Pirro Jr. Funeral Home for assisting with her arrangements. A private celebration of life will be scheduled on a date to be determined.

In lieu of flowers, the family encourages everyone to remember her by planting something, baking something to share, visiting a neighbor, showing love and kindness and paying it forward. That is how Linda will forever be remembered.

Saratoga County BOE Participates In Election Security Workshop; How To Check If You’re Registered to Vote 

Written by Saratoga TODAY on . Posted in News.

ALLSTON SPA — The Saratoga County Board of Elections on July 24, 2024, hosted an Election Security Workshop and Tabletop Exercise coordinated by the New York State Board of Elections. The day-long event was one of four training sessions for all County Boards of Elections to ensure readiness by all entities as the General Election approaches. 

Event partners included the Cyber & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the New York State Executive Chamber, the New York State Division of Homeland Security & Emergency Services (DHSES), the New York State Police (NYSP), and the New York State Office of Information Technology Services (ITS). 

Saratoga County was one of four counties across the state chosen to host this exercise between July 23 – July 26, offering collaborative opportunities for government entities, election administrators, law enforcement, and information technology experts alike. In addition to representatives from the County Boards of Elections, county information technology professionals, emergency managers, and communications directors participated. 

Presentations featured information about election security best practices, incident response processes, cybersecurity regulations, voting equipment and software, and combatting mis- and disinformation about elections. The tabletop exercises examined coordination and response capabilities during a variety of hypothetical cyber and physical security incidents impacting elections.

The 2024 General Election is Nov. 5, 2024. Early Voting will occur from Oct.  26 through Nov. 3. 

To ensure you are registered to vote, go to https://voterlookup.elections.ny.gov/. Entering your county, name, date of birth and zip code will return your registration status, as well as the district races in which  you are eligible to vote, and your voting location. 

One note on regional congressional districts this year: in the ever-wiggling geographical line across Saratoga County separating the 20th Congressional District (current rep. Democrat Paul Tonko), and 21st Congressional District (current rep. Republican Elise Stefanik), the current boundaries place much of Saratoga County  – city of Saratoga Springs, Milton, Malta and points west and south in the 20th District, while the Town of Saratoga, portions of Wilton, Greenfield and points north sit in the 21st.
