DAVID BAKER SAYS THE MAVERICK is SITUATED in WEST HURLEY

I have just read the home page for the Maverick display at New Paltz. There is nothing I can do about it except state that the Maverick is situated in West Hurley, Town of Hurley, and has never been annexed to the Town of Woodstock. I hope future actions taken to recognize the MAverick will place it in the right community.
I would like to see all of the West Hurley residences listed as West Hurley, not Woodstock. The reason for todays confusion lies in the fact that West Hurley relied on Woodstock as a source of services-doctors, goods and food, when the phone system was put in. In those days it would have been a toll call from West Hurley to Woodstock, so the phone company and the post office worked their collective magic. Today it is not needed and should be put back to what things once were. Woodstock gets enough credit, even as far away as Bethel.
