Maccabee Hall was developed as a meeting space for the Knights and Ladies of the Maccabees, a Jewish religious group that provided insurance and was active in issues of fairness. In 1915 the Ladies of Maccabees became the Women's Benefit Association of the Maccabeès, which supported fairness for women and children. Maccabee Hall also served many other groups, including the Fish and Game Club, and hosted music, food sales, fundraisers, dances, and other social events. The Maccabees group dissolved in 1943 because of diminished interest, and Maccabee Hall was later sold to Frank and Evva Dickerson and demolished in 1960. The red building known as the Adirondack Outdoor and Taxidermy dates to the 1800's and was a general store in 1816 owned by George Steele. Over the years it had many owners, including Mr. and Mrs. Mike Parker, Pete Dickerson, Frank and Annalita Stevens, Ralph and Ferris Nichols, and Willis and Mildred Dickerson. The Dickersons ran the store during 1848 when it was an IGA, until the Northway went through in 1967 and traffic stopped on Route 9. Created in 1908, the Grange Hall became another meeting place, especially in colder months, and the Fish and Game Club used it as well as Maccabee Hall for meetings.
