Box and Folder List:
Nancy Papish, a resident of Schenectady, New York, has been involved with environmental activism at a local and regional level since the 1970s. Papish's papers document her involvement with Clearwater, North River Friends of Clearwater (NRFC), and the campaign to stop Hydro-Quebec's development plan for James Bay in northern Quebec.
Clearwater refers to both a boat and an environmental organization of more than 10,000 members. Clearwater's history dates to the late 1960s, when folk singer and activist Pete Seeger became interested in building a recreation of the sloops that traveled the Hudson River in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The Hudson River Sloop Restoration (HRSR) was the precursor organization to Clearwater. Its original goal was simply to build the sloop that Seeger had envisioned. However, most HRSR members shared an interest in cleaning up the polluted Hudson River. They decided to use the boat as a "floating classroom," raising public awareness about the need to protect the Hudson by conducting educational sails on the river.
The Hudson River Sloop Clearwater launched in 1969. Today, over 12,000 people sail on the Clearwater each year. The crew is comprised of paid staff and Clearwater member volunteers. The Clearwater organization is also well-known for its annual Great Hudson River Revival, a festival of music, arts, and environmental education.[1]
NRFC was founded around 1976 as a sloop club affiliated with Clearwater. Sloop clubs are local organizations that support Clearwater's mission. NRFC, which is based in the Capital District, holds monthly meetings and works with other local environmental organizations on issues of mutual concern.[2]
NRFC was one of many organizations that participated in a grassroots campaign to stop Hydro-Quebec's proposed James Bay II project in the early 1990s. New York State had contracted with Hydro-Quebec to purchase electric power through 2018. Hydro-Quebec planned to build several dams in the subarctic James Bay region of Quebec. This enraged environmental and human rights activists, who argued that the dams would destroy an ecosystem on which native Cree and Inuit communities depended. In 1994, the New York Power Authority canceled its final contract with Hydro-Quebec.

These papers document the environmental activism of Nancy Papish from the 1970s through the 1990s, focusing strongly on her involvement with Clearwater and North River Friends of Clearwater, as well as the campaign to stop Hydro-Quebec from building dams in the James Bay region of Quebec. Included are meeting minutes, notes, mailings, press releases, news clippings, magazine articles, programs, and publications. The Clearwater files contain near-complete runs of newsletters produced by both NRFC and the parent Clearwater organization. Evidence of NRFC's outreach activities is found in a slide show titled "This Is Clearwater" and numerous poster displays.
Most of the Clearwater files contain information that was disseminated widely to members, such as mailings, brochures, and publications. Documentation of Clearwater's organization and administration, such as meeting minutes, internal reports, and committee files, is almost entirely absent. There is little information about the membership of Clearwater.
Since the campaign to stop development in James Bay was grassroots in nature, the James Bay files contain materials from several organizations. Detail about the structure and history of these organizations is lacking, as well as information about individual participants in the movement.
The papers do not contain much personal correspondence. Biographical information on Papish is equally scarce. Although there are files related to environmental education, there is no documentation of Papish's professional life as an English teacher at Schoharie Central School.
Several collections in the M.E. Grenander Department of Special Collections and Archives provide further information on the environmental issues that were of concern to Papish. For a complete list of related collections, see the subject guide for Conservation and the Environment. Of particular note are the records of Environmental Advocates of New York (APAP-104), Sierra Club, Atlantic Chapter (APAP-130), and the Solidarity Committee of the Capital District (APAP-042), all of which contain files on the campaign to stop Hydro-Quebec's James Bay project, as well as the records of Environmental Clearinghouse of Schenectady (ECOS) (APAP-180).
Series 1: Clearwater Files, 1973-1993, 1.2 cubic ft., Arranged alphabetically.
This series contains items related to the boat Clearwater; Clearwater as an organization, including its predecessor organization, Hudson River Sloop Restoration; and affiliated sloop clubs, particularly North River Friends of Clearwater. It includes newsletters, membership mailings, catalogs, and educational materials. There is a near-complete collection of programs from Clearwater's annual Great Hudson River Revival, as well as copies of Clearwater's official newsletter from 1973-1993. The issues for 1973-1974 are oversized and are located in Series 9. Administrative files from NRFC are limited and include by-laws, charters, and a membership dues receipt book from 1978. NRFC newsletters, spanning from 1976-1993, are located in a separate legal-sized arrangement at the end of the series.
Series 2: James Bay Activism Files, 1963, 1987, 1990-1994, undated, .75 cubic ft., Arranged alphabetically.
This series consists of Papish's files on Hydro-Quebec's James Bay project and the efforts of activists to stop the project. It includes news clippings, political cartoons, press releases, meeting announcements and minutes, magazine articles, fliers, brochures, and mailings from organizations involved in the campaign to stop James Bay II. These organizations include P.R.O.T.E.C.T., the James Bay Action Network, the James Bay Defense Coalition, the New York James Bay Network, and the Student Environmental Action Coalition. There are also files with background information on the native populations of Quebec, particularly the Cree and Innu populations.
Also found in this series is information on the 1990 Odeyak voyage, in which Cree and Inuit community members traveled from their homes to New York City in a boat that was a cross between a kayak and a canoe. The Odeyak passengers received food and housing from activists along their route, and Papish helped arrange accommodations for them in the Albany area. In 1994, New York activists staged a recreation of the Odeyak trip between Albany and New York City.
The items in folders marked "News Clippings, Press Releases, and Mailings" were originally housed in a large binder. The original order of materials within the binder was maintained.
Series 3: Environmental Education Files, 1977, 1984-1986, undated, .33 cubic ft., Arranged alphabetically.
This series contains guides, handouts, worksheets, and other materials related to environmental education. It is unclear how these materials were used by Papish. The series consists largely of published guides for Project Learning Tree and Project WILD, education programs developed by the Western Regional Environmental Council. Also included are three photocopied excerpts from books on environmental education.
Series 4: Subject Files, 1976, 1979-1987, 1989-1994, undated, .5 cubic ft., Arranged alphabetically.
Included are subject files on miscellaneous environmental issues and non-environmental topics. There are files on several environmental organizations, including Environmental Clearinghouse of Schenectady and the Hudson River Waterway Association. Also included are three folders of plates with historical images of Albany streets. These images came from an unidentified publication. Their relationship to other items in the collection is uncertain.
Series 5: Publications, 1969, 1977-1983, 1985-1993, undated, .5 cubic ft., Arranged alphabetically.
This series contains mostly single-issue publications on assorted environmental topics. Publications related to Clearwater and James Bay are found in Series 1 and Series 2, respectively.
Series 6: Memorabilia, undated, .3 cubic ft., Arranged by format.
This series consists of three T-shirts, two plastic bags, and a bumper sticker. Two of the T-shirts are printed with a bird logo and the phrase "We Don't Have to Lose James Bay." The third T-shirt is printed with "Je Me Souviens . . . de la Riviere Grande Baleine. Sauvons la Riviere Grande Baleine." There are two copies of Clearwater's "Litterbag Songbook," a plastic shopping bag printed with lyrics for several traditional songs. The bumper sticker is of the same design as the "Je Me Souviens." James Bay T-shirt.
Series 7: Photographs and Audiovisual Materials, 1978, 1989, 1993, undated, .3 cubic ft., 1 videotape, 1 audiotape, Arranged by format.
Photographs, a slide show with accompanying audiocassette, a videocassette, and an audiocassette are found in this series.
There are 17 photographs housed in sleeves, most of which are unidentified. Some of the photos depict James Bay activists, as well as what is probably a model of the Odeyak. Others depict several brick buildings. Two photographs depict what appears to be a group of high school age students. One photograph, depicting two Native hunters standing with a kill, was used as a postcard. There is a message on the back from Gretchen McHugh to Nancy Papish, dated May 7, 1991.
The slide show, titled "This Is Clearwater," was produced by NRFC in 1978. The show consists of eighty slides. There are also several additional slides which were probably not a part of this show. It is possible that some of them were a part of another NRFC slide show titled "Transportation Along the Hudson," but little information about this show is available. The slides are accompanied by an audiotape with narration by Nancy Papish and two typewritten copies of the narration script. The audiotape has a length of approximately 26 minutes. The slide show serves as an introduction to both Clearwater and North River Friends of Clearwater.
The videocassette contains a documentary titled "Hudson River Chronicle: Room at the Top." The documentary was produced by WMHT Educational Telecommunications in 1989. It includes a lengthy segment on Clearwater, including footage of educational activities on the sloop. Other topics covered are river geography and history; canoeing, rafting, and fishing; PCB contamination of the river; the Hudson's role in New York's canal system; the Hudson River School of painting; and protests of a home port for nuclear missiles in New York Harbor. Running time is approximately ninety minutes.
The audiocassette contains "Capitol Connection" #9351, which originally aired on Northeast Public Radio WAMC on December 22, 1993. "Capitol Connection" was a weekly radio program in which moderator Alan Chartock presented New York State Governor Mario Cuomo with questions from WAMC listeners. Near the start of the program is a brief discussion of Hydro-Quebec and James Bay. Running time is 25 minutes, 26 seconds.
Series 8: North River Friends of Clearwater Displays, undated, .5 cubic ft., Arranged numerically by display number.
Nancy Papish's papers were originally accompanied by fifteen large posterboard displays used as promotional tools by NRFC. For preservation reasons, most of these displays were disassembled. Items from the displays were placed in folders, along with photographs of the original displays.
Since most of the displays were untitled, numbers were added to identify each display. The box for this series contains a folder for each display that was disassembled. All items that could be removed from the displays were placed in the appropriate folders. Some displays were missing items that had once been attached. It is likely that these items were removed by NRFC for use in other displays. Displays with items missing are marked as incomplete in the box and folder list.
Display 12 included a large New York State map that was glued to the posterboard. This display was kept intact, and is stored with the oversize items from Series 9.
Series 9: Oversize Materials, 1973-1975, 1978-1979, 1990-1993, undated, 1 cubic ft., Arranged alphabetically and by format.
This series consists of oversize posters, maps, and tabloid-size publications, most of which relate to either Clearwater or James Bay.
