Wick said he met this week with Warren County Sheriff Bud York and District Attorney Kate Hogan to discuss ways to minimize the Log Bay party or eliminate it altogether. Charlotte McCue of Carlsbad, California, died Monday when her family's boat was struck by another vessel operated by someone believed to have attended the annual Log Bay Day party earlier that day. A boating accident that ended in the death of a 9-year-old girl has prompted officials to consider scuttling an annual party on New York's Lake George that has become notorious for alcohol, arrests and chicken fights featuring topless women. Log Bay Day, which began nearly 20 years ago as a way for tourism industry workers to relax on their day off, now attracts hundreds of boats and sometimes more than 1,000 people to drink and wade in the lake's secluded Log Bay on the last Monday in July. "If you party on that bay," he said, "you're going to have a lot of eyes on you."
