summer

Hoffmans Playland in Latham has been an Albany area tradition for so many families every summer and might continue to do so.

It’s hard to believe that Labor Day is almost here.

Picture this, you're on vacation in Mexico, and you decide you want to try scuba diving. After your diving is over, a group of over twenty killer whales jump out of the water and chase your boat.

We recently lost a big supporter of Classic Country Music and a man who made a local landmark an important part of so many people's lives. Dick Pearce, 81, of Lakeside Farms in Ballston Lake, New York passed on July 30, 2013.

It's that time of year when everyone heads to Six Flags Great Escape in Lake George for some summer fun!

As I was going through my news feed this morning one of my friends posted this line. I immediately started to post my suggestions. They are not all winners but not everybody is when we are talking about the track! So think about Saratoga and all it has to offer and about all the people braving the heat wave to experience opening day and let's have some fun at their expence...

We are definitely in the midst of a heat wave.  3 days of 90 degrees and above?  I think we might have 5 of those!  How do you cool off?  Green Island has the answer.

Northeast artist Gregg Simmons has released a fun summer song with a local twist. 'Adirondack Summer' is becoming a summer favorite for people who love to vacation in Lake George (pictured above) and enjoy all the outdoor attractions of upstate New York.

Gregg Simmons is one of the most energetic and talented musicians to come out of the Northeast. From his role in the popular groups Loose Cannon and Cryin' Out Loud to his current solo release 'Summer in the Adirondacks,' his career continues to rise.

As we prepare for a great summer of cook-outs and picnics, we catch up with Ariane Duarte, Executive Chef & owner of CulinAriane restaurant, for some great grilling secrets that will impress friends, neighbors, family and your own taste buds!

WGNA hit the road and headed to Lake George on a perfect summer weekend. The French Mountain Commons and Log Jam Outlets have always been a popular destination for this time of year- for people who want to enjoy shopping at designer outlets in the beautiful setting of the Adirondacks.

Summer would be so much better without mosquitoes! I'm sure there is some legitimate reason for these little blood suckers to be around,perhaps they play  a key role in the fine balance of nature. I don't care, I hate mosquitoes. The worst part is with all the rain we have been getting, and lots and lots of standing water for them to breed in, they will be out like gangbusters this year...
