From left, Historic Saranac Lake staff and board members Emily Banach, Jim Sonneborn, Chessie Monks-Kelly, Alex Krach, Amy Catania, Melinda Little and Lynn Harrison stand with the Louis Fobare Memorial “Best in Show” trophy, which the museum won for its float in the Winter Carnival Gala Parade, which replicated this year’s Carnival poster. Monks-Kelly said they plan to display the trophy in a museum case for the next year, placing it with an exhibit on activities tuberculosis patients did to occupy their time in Saranac Lake. Since Winter Carnival was created out of tuberculosis patients wanting some winter fun, she thought it was fitting.
