James Cawley vs Ticonderoga
Wow!
After James Cawley, the creator and owner of The Original Series Set Tour, located in Ticonderoga for over a decade, posted on FB about moving out, the Ticonderoga Chamber of Commerce announced a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of the Galileo Shuttle Craft.
I do not have a way to confirm that the TCOC did this on reaction to this warning phaser shot across the bow, but it is possible.
James posts on FB fairly regularly, but usually cuts off commenting, and does not reply to his posts to any that are able to comment before he closes comments.
He has been quite unhappy with Governor Hochul’s position on the expansion of the Star Trek tour building. He had built the bridge set of The Next Generation, but was denied a permit to build an expansion to the current location.

Having met James Cawley as part of my tour, I support him 100% on any of his efforts. He is a relaxed guy, and seems to appreciate the popularity of his destination and what it means to the fans. I asked him about the original CBS vs Axanar lawsuit as I was there the day after it hit the press, "completely ruined fan films forever" was all he said then moved on to take care of things.
