They were all thanked by Board Chairman Kevin Geraghty for their service, and received U.S. flags that flew over the county. (Supervisor Bean was not able to attend because of illness).
Thomas, the county's Budget Officer, has been on the board for 22 years, Merlino 20, Magowan eight, Geraci four and Bean two.
State Sen. Dan Stec and Assemblyman Matt Simpson attended to offer their regards as well, and a reception was held after the meeting.
The Board of Supervisors also hosted Dave Wick, Executive Director of the Lake George Park Commission, as he is retiring this year after a 33-year career dedicated to Warren County's natural resources.
Before serving nearly 14 years with the Park Commission, Wick spent nearly 19 years with Warren County Soil and Water Conservation District.
𝐆𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐲 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐝: "While at the Soil & Water Conservation District for nearly 19 years, Dave helped build the agency into a professional environmental asset to the entire county, establishing a cooperative spirit and assisting towns and the city of Glens Falls with innumerable programs to protect our natural resources. His leadership will be missed."
Sen. Stec was also on hand to present 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐲 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 staff with a Senate proclamation honoring the agency's 100-year anniversary earlier this year!
