Harnessing Nature: Building the Great Sacandaga
Come watch a screening of the documentary Harnessing Nature: Building the Great Sacandaga.
Produced by the Sacandaga Lake Advisory Council with support from Roberts, Jason Kemper, director of planning for Saratoga County and Queensbury-based filmmaker Peter Pepe, the film tells the early history of the Sacandaga Valley and explains how the waters of the Sacandaga and Hudson Rivers flooded with run-off every spring damaging local homes and businesses. It reveals how the people of the Sacandaga Valley had to sacrifice their homes, farms and livelihood to make way for the series of dams, bridges and roads, which were completed in March 1930 at a cost of around $12 million.
