Ellicottville Community is Biggest Beneficiary of Shopping Local Spend Here So Dollars Stay Here By Jann Wiswall
All across the country, in large and small communities alike, there is a movement under way. The movement comes with many catchy titles, but essentially the message is simple: shopping locally improves the economic strength of individual communities. “There’s a trickle-down impact to shopping locally,” said Dina DiPasquale, owner of Dina’s of Ellicottville and Dina’s at the Mont. “Local businesses hire local people, buy from local sources and pay rent to local building owners. The building owners then invest in their buildings using local contractors and service providers, who then frequent the businesses. It comes full circle.” Meanwhile all of those people are paying taxes and contributing to the community in various ways. According to the Anderson Study of Retail Economics, “locally owned firms contribute more to local charities and fundraisers than do their national counterparts.” An extensive amount of economic data supports this assertion. In Salt Lake City, for example, Civic Economics, an economic development and strategic planning consulting firm, found that local retail businesses recirculate 52 percent of their revenue to the community in the form of local taxes, payrolls and expenditures within the community. Large chain retailers, in comparison, recirculate less than 14 percent See Shop Local Page 5 © KEYSTONE DESIGNER INC

Western New York is home to many high-caliber artists, the artist owners of the Mill Street Gallery are a prime example of the quality of art produced in the region. With the holidays rapidly approaching, this Ellicottville gallery wanted to offer original works of art at affordable prices in time for holiday shopping. The gallery’s 100 for 100(ish) fine art and sale exhibition begins Nov. 8 and will feature 100 works of original art by Sean Huntington, Barbara Fox and Nance Jackson ranging from $60 to about $200. The gallery will also be showing some of their larger work. “Sean, Nance and I have been delighted with the success
of the gallery, even considering our opening in the slow season of early spring,” said Fox. “100 for 100 is our first exhibition with a theme. We have worked hard to create new pieces for the show and look forward to hanging them in one giant wall of art.” Huntington said, “The three of us have been really excited getting this show together. It’s good to challenge yourself as an artist, and making this many paintings sure has been! It also gives our fans a chance to pick up art at a more affordable price than my larger pieces.” Huntington is known for his recognizable and iconic abstract tree paintings inspired by the canopy of local forests.
His multilayer painting process melds watercolor with gouache (opaque watercolors) to produce vibrant, abstract images. To finish his pieces, Huntington uses metal punches that belonged to his grandfather to edge each piece in copper or aluminum stamped with his name and the painting’s title. Photograph-quality still life and floral images are captured in Fox’s watercolors paintings, which incorporate beauty and technical fluency. It’s common to do a double take when viewing her lifelike renderings. Her work has appeared in watercolor publications and national art magazines. See Mill Street Gallery page 2

Fox said, “A gift of artwork is a unique expression of love and beauty, and I am hoping that people will find out for themselves how much joy comes from owning a piece of artwork.” Jackson’s unique interpretive landscapes are rich with texture and loaded with color. Using acrylic and mixed media, her moody color palate evokes many emotions as you ponder her graphic landscapes.
“As the holiday season rapidly approaches, I am thrilled to offer a variety of small original works for unique gift ideas!” said Jackson.

Over 100 kids, and grown-up kids, attended the American Legion’s annual Halloween event Wed evening, sponsored by The Rotary Club of Ellicottville.
After saying good-bye to Hurricane Sandy and Halloween, we enter November with the projected opening of Holiday Valley’s Ski Season about one month away. All of the rain we experienced last week should also be a thing of the past. Therefore, we may look forward to the start of our Ski Season and The Holiday season, along with all of the FUN times that will happen in Ellicottville this time of year. Before we get too engrossed in Ellicottville’s winter, remember, as long as the frost melts from the pumpkin, Elkdale Country Club will still be open for what is left of our golf season. This makes November one of two months of the year that may offer us both skiing and golf on the same day. How’s that for a neat place to visit or live? As a further indication of the good times we get to experience will be what’s happenin this coming week. Starting today Friday November 2, 2012 through Thursday November 8, 2012 there will be seven Bands playing, four DJ’s, one complete with a Karaoke Show, several All Week Sound System Music Events plus all the food and beverage specials, some of which are associated with football parties, making Ellicottville The FUN Place of WNY. Like we do most weeks, here is a quick note on several music free locations that are part of our GOOD TIMES. First, Tips Up Cafe, a wonderful restaurant located on Washington Street. That, along with their excellent, well prepared fine dinning menu, you will get to experience, Ellicottville’s local hometown service with a Tips Up Cafe Smile. This is a great place to enjoy an excellent dinner. Then on Monroe Street, The Barn Restaurant, another local and family friendly place, offers great food, especially the Friday Fish Fry, and drink specials along with all ages friendly service. All of this creates an atmosphere that is a FUN Barn Experience. Just east of Ellicottville, The Birdwalk Restaurant & Antique Shop will also be serving up their great gourmet pizza specials along with a fine dinning menu that will have you returning for sure. Also remember, The Birdwalk’s service is great. Returning to just south of the Village, The Depot will have their normal, wonderful specials happening, which includes Football Sunday. So as Moose says, “if food liquor and laughter are what you are after, The Depot is your place
to gather”. Back in The Village, Kabob’s Kafe will be offering their great menu along with their neat and friendly service from their first floor bar and second floor dinning area. Our music and other music related FUN kicks-off at 7:00 PM this Friday evening in Balloons with a performance by “The Davey Zee Band”. Many of us remember this neat band as The Davy Z Project or Davy Z & The Renegades. The driving force of “The Davey Zee Band” is Davey Zee who has been an active guitarist since the age of ten. His early influence was Billy Joel. Davey and his band now play a line of tunes incorporating the neat sound of rock, jazz blues and soul. This will be a FUN music night in Balloons. Following “The Davey Zee Band” “Personable DJ John Barry” will keep The FUN rolling from Balloons Sound & Light Booth with his unique LIVE Personality Show-off Show. John’s show includes a neat selection of tunes and FUN chitter/chatter till close. Then at 9:00 PM Friday, RT Live will be on stage WOWIN The Gin Mill FUN Loving Music Crowd with his acoustic version of many classics, including some excellent country rock tunes. Like the last few weeks RT might hook up with Freddie on percussion and or “Retro Lil Joey” on spoons creating even more Gin Mill Music FUN. Also remember, if of you enjoy a later meal, especially a great fish fry, The Gin Mill serves their excellent, reasonably priced, menu till midnight on weekends. Moving to Saturday, we will have two bands and two DJ’s for us to enjoy. It all begins at 6:00 PM Saturday in Balloons with “Sandi Pack & The East of Eden Band”. As we reported when they played here last August. This is a veteran fourpiece band performing several creative styles of music. With Sandi Pack on lead vocals, their creative styles include blues, classic to southern rock and alternative country. They have won several Buffalo Music Awards and have made some really FUN times happen with their previous gigs. Balloons will be Rockin this Saturday. Following “Sandi Pack & The East of Eden Band”, “DJ Flakey” or “Chatty Frank”, “The Total Party Monster” will be back on duty in Balloons Sound & Light Booth. FUN chatter and neat danceable tunes are Frank’s version of Party Continuation, which he will make happen till close.
Returning to 9:00 PM Saturday, “Three Easy Pieces” will be back in The Gin Mill. From their Gin Mill Gig a little over a month ago, RT Live and Freddie Joseph along with Jeff Johnson have put together another version of “The Far Out Band. Their choice of music continues to be acoustic, classic to southern rock with a taste of country added to the mix. Again, we will have another FUN Gin Mill Saturday Music Night. Also at 9:00 PM Saturday The PUB in Great Valley will have “DJ Felony” along with his Karaoke Show in house. Therefore, The PUB patrons will not only get to hear “DJ Felony’s” neat selection of tunes, they will also be offered a chance to be part of The Karaoke Show or just kick back and enjoy The FUN PUB Times “DJ Felony” creates. Moving on to another quiet Sunday, music wise, where just maybe Da Bills will surprise us and beat The Texans. Nah, that probably won’t happen. Therefore let’s move on to Monday. We begin in The Gin Mill at 6:00 PM, with their “All U Can Eat Spaghetti & Football Dinner” for only $6.99. Adding to The Gin Mill FUN will be “Connor The Crash Dummy”, besides being on bar duty, Connor will be playing classic country tunes through the sound system until The Eagles take on The Saints. Monday rounds out at 10:00 PM Sharp with Madigans Church on Monday. Reverend Jack accompanied by Deacon Dan will have the house BOPPIN & ROCKIN to the beat of their original Honky Tonk to Rock-A-Billy tunes. Another neat addition just might be Freddie on Percussion. Thereby extending Madigans Weekend FUN. Wednesday, the FUN and music begins at 8:00 PM, when The Gin Mill will have Joe Wagner, John Winston doing their traditional Folk to Southern Rock Acoustic Night of Music. Just maybe Freddie and Retro Lil Joey will join in helping them create an even better Gin Mill Wednesday Night of Music. This show is among the best. Thursday we will have two music events. First at 8:00

interViews: Conversations with Ellicottville-ians By Jann Wiswall
Get to Know: Al Mahar Title: President, Board of Directors, HoliMont and President, ImageNow by Mahar A Few Facts: Al Mahar has been coming to Ellicottville since his dad bought a chalet at HoliMont in the 1970s. Now he’s a regular who comes with his wife and son from their home in Rochester every weekend from early December until the very end of the ski season. Al’s no stranger offseason either. He enjoys many Ellicottville festivals and activities year round. Al is president of ImageNow printing company in Rochester and has served on several HoliMont committees and as vice president over the past several years. His presidency of the board of directors officially began over Fall Fest weekend in October. Q: What do you think makes Ellicottville special? A: Ellicottville has that hard to define “it” thing about it. When you drive into town, you just feel good about where you are. Ski Magazine, which just voted Holiday Valley the fifth best ski resort in the Northeast, said that if you don’t believe it, just try Ellicottville. And it’s really true. It’s just magical. Q: What would you like to see change in Ellicottville in the next five-ten years? A: There are several specific things I’d like to see change. I’d love to see progress at the Ellicottville Inn. I remember when that was a wonderful gathering place. It would be nice if someone could make something work well there again. Another hope is for the village and HoliMont to come to an agreement about extending Greer Hill. I would like to sit down with village representatives to figure
out how to make it work for everyone involved. Finally, I’d love to see sidewalks be built along Route 242 from HoliMont to the village. I think they keep getting cut from the state budget, but it’s a safety issue. Q: What would you like to see stay the same? A: I love the organic, homegrown shops and restaurants in the village. They really are the fabric of the town. We want them to be successful and we want to support them for the long term. In so many other resort areas, there’s a big difference between the needs and wants of tourists and local residents. Here, we work toward the same goals. There’s the sense that we’re all in this together. And this sense extends to HoliMont at the board level, too. We know we rely on the community to survive, so we always think about how HoliMont impacts Ellicottville. This needs to stay the same. At HoliMont specifically, I’d like to retain the same blend of Canadian and American

Arts Council Seeks Artists for 5” x 7” Fundraiser First-Pick Tickets Available for Event The Cattaraugus County Arts Council (CCAC) is hosting a 5x7: Art for Everyone exhibition as its fall fundraiser and is looking for artists to donate 5” x 7” (or 7” x 5“) works of art. On Nov. 17, 2012, the walls of the arts council will be hung with hundreds of dazzling, multicolored, multidimensional works displayed in a showstopping grid, all for sale to the public. Over the coming weeks, CCAC is asking regional artists, students, retirees, politicians – truly anyone – to donate works of art. Any hangable media with outside maximum dimensions measuring 5 inches by 7 inches are welcome (no framing necessary) including tiles, fabric, paintings, glass, drawings, sculpture, embroidery, quilting, photography, or any other media. With some recognized artists donating works – think Peg Bothner, Doug Baird, Debra Eck, Karen Fitzpatrick, Barbara Fox, David Higgins, Sean Huntington, Elliott Hutten, Jennifer Miller, Thomas Paquette, Mikel Wintermantel, and more – you’ll be in good company. But for this event, the playing field is leveled with all pieces displayed anonymously in order for
members, which is about 50/50. It makes the membership so much more dynamic. Q: Are you involved in any organizations/community/ volunteer groups outside of your official responsibilities? A: I have been on many boards and committees in the Rochester area. Boards are important to help run businesses and gain participation in organizations. HoliMont has a committee-structured board, so my first job as president was to ensure that all committees had chairs. Going forward, I’ll rely on those committees for their studied recommendations. Q: What are you favorite area events/activities? A: I’m a year-round visitor in Ellicottville and come to town for several favorite events. In the spring, I love Mardi Gras -- maybe because it’s a little corny with the silly floats. The kids are adorable and funny. I just always want to go. In the summer, I come for cycling and golf. This past summer I went to Holiday Valley’s Sky High Adventure Park and plan to bring some friends to try it next summer. They did a great job with it – it was way beyond my expectations. In the fall, I come with 30 of my buddies for the Rock N’ Roll weekend. The cars are amazing, the crowds are manageable, and it’s just an all around great time. As for winter, of course, I love the skiing and other sports, but I have to say my favorite weekend is Christmas in Ellicottville when the town is Coming to the close of all lit up.

The U.S. election is here, pick one dog or the other there was no such thing as a First Ladies Debate, it was just comedian Jimmy Kimmel messing with them. Okay, if you’re an American about to go to the polls next Tuesday and you’re undecided, confused and thinking hell, why don’t we just have George Bush’s cronies at the Supreme Court decide this one too – I am here to help you. Sit down, relax, close your eyes and focus on just the two of them. Who exactly can you best imagine in the White House? The tall goofy-looking one or the short but really cute one? Do you want the big red one with the floppy ears or the black-faced little rascal with the button nose? This election could change the course of America for decades, so make your decision – do you want to elect Romney’s Irish Setter as First Dog or Obama’s Portuguese Water Dog? Who’s it gonna be – Seamus or Bo? The time to decide is now. And when you look at swing states, dead heats, hanging chads and the museum known as the Electoral College of votes – deciding your president vicariously through his dog is as good a system as the one that’s now in place. Your average Irish Setter is generally dumb as a stump, but loyal. Setters are handsome, colourful and like to drink a bit. The Portuguese Dog is clever and resourceful, a working dog that helps fisherman tend nets and haul in ropes. Seamus appears to me to be an unambitious lay about, but who can blame him. Secretly he’s probably thrilled to be slouched on anything that’s not moving. Years ago Mitt Romney took the family on a 650-mile car trip from Massachusetts to Canada with Seamus strapped to the roof of the station wagon. Romney claimed the dog actually enjoyed the trip in his well-secured cage with a specially made windshield. Several hundred miles into the journey, with liquid brown poop running down the windows of the Chevrolet Caprice, Seamus begged to differ with his master’s take on the open-
air trip. Frankly, the dog was scared witless. No mention has been made as to how Mitt Romney handled the washroom breaks for his wife and those five boys in the back. (The incident in which Seamus was secured to the car like a hood ornament was documented in a rock song by Devo titled “Don’t Roof Rack Me, Bro!”) Bo, named after the rock legend Bo Diddley appears to be feisty, playful and just so damn cute. I’m sure he’s got mischievous sparkling eyes but you can’t see them for all the adorable black curls. In videos, Bo is always nipping at somebody’s heel, chewing on a shoe and trying to outrun the president, having more success at that than Romney. Bo squats like a female when he pees but this is hardly a reason not to vote for him, indeed it could be deemed sexist. As current First Dog, Bo has political ties to the Kennedy breed and with “Portuguese” in his title, would make an excellent ambassador to that fine country. He’s also neutered which as history proves is always a good thing for a male in the White House. If nothing else, these two dogs will provide a great service for both winner and loser of this election. As Harry Truman once said: “If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog.” The choice is clear America. Do you want a president who, for the purpose of expediency might strap his dog to the roof of Air Force One on a peace mission to the Mideast or a commander-in-chief who races his charming little pup into the Oval office every morning? The President of the United States may lead, but from by experience, the dog rules. For comments, ideas and copies of The True Story of Wainfleet, go to www.williamthomas.ca

Shop Local of their revenue locally. For restaurants, the re-circulation rate is 79 percent locally versus 30 percent for chain restaurants. These numbers change from community to community, but generally, studies find that shopping at local businesses keeps roughly three times more revenue in the local economy. According to the Association of Independent Business Owners, “even modest changes in consumer spending habits can generate substantial economic impact.” A study in West Michigan concluded that if people there shopped locally just 10 percent more often, the local economy would create some 1,600 new jobs and be able to keep $53 million in wages in the community. The environment benefits, too. In a 2010 study in Iowa, reported by eLocal. com, a 10 percent increase in the residents’ use of local produce statewide would save 310,000 gallons of fuel each year and would reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 7.3 million pounds. While the numbers might look different in Ellicottville because of scale, local business leaders here agree that the community benefits from the independent shops

Wintermantel, as well as a collection of collaborative artwork. Anne Conroy-Baiter, executive director of the Cattaraugus County Arts Council, commented that the Wintermantel show is well deserved both for their individual talents, but also for their longstanding community involvement. “Both Mikel and Dan are known for giving back generously to the community,

both in terms of painting donations and access to excellent graphic design,” said Conroy-Baiter. The Wintermantel family has made a lasting impression on this region’s creative economy through their contributions to graphic design, fine art and community involvement. Copley Master Mikel Wintermantel studied at the Rhode Island School of Design and locally with Cole Young. He is renowned for his luminous landscapes, which are shown and collected internationally. Dan Wintermantel’s intensely creative graphic illustrations have been published in national magazines, have received several ADDY awards, and are collected and revered as the pinnacle of what digital art can be. The show’s reception is free and open to the public, and will feature hors d’oeuvres and happy hour refreshments. The exhibition will be open until Dec. 13.

Simply Food “Cooking is about putting food on the table night after night, and there isn’t anything glamorous about it.” – Christopher Kimball, publisher and editor of Cook’s Illustrated If someone knows I went to culinary school, they always look at me with wide eyes and ask what I’m making for dinner. Then they are crestfallen when I tell them what I’m making. Maybe a Mario Batali or Ina Garten pull out a knockout dinner night after night for their families, but I doubt it. I have two growing kids that need to eat as healthfully as they can to keep them growing, strong and free from the “school kid kennel cough” they always seem to get. (That cough hangs on for weeks!) Each night on our plate is at least one vegetable, sometimes up to three. I made macaroni and cheese the other night and it had two vegetables in
are older, the kids know the names of the vegetables and sometimes they are not keen on eating kale in macaroni and cheese. One particular food my kids have trouble with is squash. I think it’s the consistency. When you roast butternut squash, for example, it gets squishy and not that appealing. So, I puree it and add it to macaroni and cheese all the time. You can also add pureed squash to baked items, just back off the amount of liquid you may need to add. At any rate, this recipe is packed with vitamins from the squash and the kale (you don’t need to add if you don’t want to, or you could use spinach). It’s also lower in calories that a traditional macaroni and cheese and can be gluten free if you would like. I used quinoabased elbow pasta.
it – one the kids didn’t even know about. Yeah, that sneaky chef thing that Jerry Seinfeld’s wife made popular. However, this recipe has a whopping two cups of orange and two cups of dark green vegetables. Color, that’s what it’s all about. When my kids were very young, I just called veggies by their color. For example, I STILL call ground flaxseed “magic dust” and sprinkle a tablespoon on their oatmeal or yogurt. How can you deny magic? However, now that they

Macaroni and Cheese (with vegetables!) 1 pound elbow macaroni 2 cups pureed butternut squash (you could also use canned pumpkin) 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth (you could also use vegetable or beef broth) 6 ounces goat cheese (if you don’t like goat cheese, you could use low-fat cream cheese) 1 teaspoon sea salt 2 tablespoon, Parmesan cheese 1 teaspoon canola oil 2 cups chopped greens (I used kale) Preheat oven to 375 degrees then coat a 9x13” pan with the oil and set aside. Boil your pasta for a minute or two shy of what the box directions tell you. Place your pureed squash and broth into a large saucepan, stirring over low heat until combined. Then increase the heat to medium until the mixture is almost simmering. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the goat cheese and salt. Stir (with a whisk) until smooth. Drain pasta and pour it into the saucepan with the squash cheese mixture. Stir until combined. Add your greens (if you are using) and fold the greens into the pasta. Transfer pasta mixture to baking dish. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top. Bake for 20 minutes. (Adapted from the November 2012 issue of Oxygen magazine)

Jim Morton, Charlie Coolidge and Lucille Harris relive their past growing up in Ellicottville at the October meeting of the Ellicottville Historical Society By Mary Fox
Lucille Harris was born in Ellicottville. She went to school at the old 1887 Building where she returned in the late 50’s to teach Home Economics. Harris started the cafeteria at the 1887 Building. “They cooked from scratch and you could go back for more,” she said. She ran the cafeteria and taught for 28 years. At the time, there was a shortage of classroom space in the old school building. A new building was being talked about, but suffered many delays because of disagreement over a site. One of Harris’s classrooms was the building now housing the Historical Museum. Mayor Charlie Coolidge recalled going to school at what is now Tips Up Cafe. Classes were being held in homes and buildings all over town. “We thought everyone went to school in houses. We thought it was normal,” said Barb Halloran from the audience. Harris saved more than $200 of her babysitting money to attend Buffalo State College where there was no tuition at the time. She spent four years of the war (WWII) there. “One summer I worked at Bell Aircraft,” she said. “In the fall they let me work on Victory Ships.” “During the war, we had air raid alerts,” said Jim Morton. Bordon’s Plant had a steam whistle. “We could always tell when there would be one in the winter because the guys would be up there tapping with a hammer trying to get
it to open so they could blow it. Fitzpatrick and Weller and Larimar Norton had whistles too. “I had a Zenith radio I had to cover up because the light from it would shine through the window.” “I remember the men (going off to war) formed out in front of the Courthouse and marched down Main St. to the train
“We should try to keep our identity of what we were…not forget who we are.” taking them to Fort Niagara. That corner is an important piece of history where men marched to war. Some came back in caskets in the baggage car of the train. We would have a ceremony out there,” Morton recalled. “As a boy,” Morton said, “if we had nothing else to do we went to the basket factory and watched people slave away. We helped stack baskets and helped the guy make boxes. When he came out to the hot tanks, big rats would run out from underneath and he’d go after them with sticks.” As kids, they rode bikes, belonged to boy and girl scouts, went fishing, played on the playground behind the Town Hall, had record hops, ice skated, played tennis or held pep rallies with bonfires at the village park. They hung out at the Sugar Bowl (the building on the corner of Washington and Monroe), the favorite gathering place for kids. On Saturday
nights, Jim Balassis, owner of the Sugar Bowl, would bring his popcorn maker out to the street for the kids. There were also silent films at the Courthouse. “I couldn’t read very fast at that age, so I had to get an older girl to read (the sub-titles) to me,” said Harris. There were Saturday movies at the 1887 building and movies for 10 cents at the Legion (in town). On dates, there was no transportation, so couples would walk over to the park or go to a movie or just hang out at the Sugar Bowl. Regarding Halloween, Morton said, “We had plenty of leaders doing stuff. We didn‘t do anything bad, but we’d see the cops coming and run. We just liked to have them chase us.” But, he recalled, “when we were kids, if you stepped out of line, it got home before you did.” “What meant the most to me growing up,” Harris said, “was when my mother would send me into town. I knew everybody I met. When I went to college in Buffalo, I didn’t know a soul. Ellicottville is such a friendly place.” Barb Halloran commented, “We not only knew the dog’s name, but knew what family it belonged to. Everybody knew everybody.” “We can walk up Washington Street and remember what it used to be like growing up here,” Morton said. “I remember what stores used to be where. We should try to keep our identity of what we were…not forget who we are.”

New Batch of Voters Hits the Polls ECS Students Weigh Importance of Voting By Mary Fox
Carl Emerling of Emerling Ford, Springville NY presented a check for $5400 to the Ellicottville Sports Boosters on Tuesday Oct 30th. The check is for the Ford Drive for UR School event that was held during open house in September.
Legal Notices
In Ellicottville and across the nation, every year a new batch of voters heads for the polls to exercise their right to have a say in their government. Voting is one way we exercise our freedom of speech guaranteed to us by the first Amendment of the Bill of Rights, but there was no mention of voting rights in the Constitution. Historical Context Regulations for voting were left up to the individual states and were written at a time when only white males who owned property could vote, giving them the power to decide for everyone else. In some states, there were also religious limitations. States continue to exercise their right to determine qualifications for voting; however, they are required to respect two amendments to the constitution. In 1868, the 15th Amendment was passed, stating: “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude.” It took 42 years from the time a women’s right to vote bill was first introduced into Congress
by Elizabeth Cady Stanton in 1878 for the 19th Amendment to be ratified in 1920, which stated, “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States on account of sex.” However, decades would pass before Martin Luther King would begin the fight to further the African-Americans’ right to vote in the 1950s, leading to the Voting Rights Act of 1965 that outlawed discriminatory voting practices. NY Voting Requirements In order to vote in New York State, you must “be a U.S. citizen 18 years of age by December 31, live at your present address for at least 30 days, not be in prison or on parole for felony, not be adjudged mentally incompetent by a court, not claim the right to vote elsewhere.” ECS Seniors Weigh in on Importance of Voting The 13 seniors in Jackie James’ Senior Social Studies Class at Ellicottville Central School will be eligible to vote next year. Here is what some of them had to say: Ashley Kelbaigh: “Voting is a key part of our democracy. In many other countries, citizens cannot vote.”
Carl Herman: “Voting is important because it gives you a voice. It’s what our country was founded on. It’s a right everyone has.” Tom Schena: “Voting is important because it allows you to have a say about who will represent you.” Eric Oliverio: “I am in favor of the voting process. It allows the general population to achieve the common goal. Liza Wienk: “Voting is one of those rights that is taken for granted in America.” Melia Squire: “If you’re eligible to vote and actually follow politics then you should vote.” Alex Murphy: ‘’It gives us a chance to choose the person that will lead us when so much of the world can’t vote for their leaders.” But there are two sides to every story, and in this country, we have the freedom to voice our dissention. Tessa Emke: “Voting to me is not a real necessary thing. I know that our vote counts, but I could care less about the whole election.” If you care, get out and vote. It’s your right. Polls are open on Tuesday, Nov. 6 from 6 a.m.–9 p.m.

Ellicottville–Great Valley Recreational Trail Group Establishes Fund at Foundation A committee working to create a multiuse recreational trail through Ellicottville and Great Valley has established a new fund at the Cattaraugus Region Community Foundation to assist in the creation and maintenance of the trail. “Trails have many proven advantages of providing safe recreation for families and friends, easy access to exercise for better health, personal enjoyment of the outdoors and even as a traffic-free way to commute to work, school and to shop at local businesses,” said Ken Hinman, founder of the Ellicottville–Great Valley Recreational Trail committee. Prior to establishing a fund, the group met with Joe Higgins, chair of the Allegheny River Valley Trail committee, who shared his insight on constructing a trail as well as fundraising and providing for a trail’s maintenance. Mr. Higgins was also instrumental in the creation of the Community Foundation as
a charter member, serving on the board until 2004. The Community Foundation was established in 1995 in order to manage funds to benefit the Olean area, including donations to support the creation of the Allegheny River Valley Trail. As such, the Allegheny River Valley Trail Fund was the first fund at the Community Foundation. “The Foundation is a perfect fit for this project,” said Ellicottville Mayor Charles Coolidge. “The Allegheny River Valley Trail is thriving, and our group is confident the Ellicottville Great Valley Trail will be just as successful.” As a 501(c)(3) public foundation, CRCF will receive donations on behalf of the Ellicottville Great Valley Trail, allowing donors’ gifts to be tax deductible. The Foundation will issue grants from the fund for the creation of the trail and its maintenance. Donations to the Ellicottville Great Valley Trail Fund can be
made in care of the Community Foundation at 120 North Union Street, Olean, N.Y. 14706 and online at www.cattfoundation. org. To learn more about the Ellicottville Great Valley Trail, call 716-699-4062. The Community Foundation provides to its fund donors administrative services such as gift processing and acknowledgments, investment management through a professional investment manager, and tax filing. Any nonprofit organization or any organization seeking nonprofit status interested in starting a fund at the Community Foundation can benefit from the these services. For more information, contact the Community Foundation at (716) 3724433, email foundation@ cattfoundation.org or visit w w w. c a t t f o u n d a t i o n . o r g .

Super Bowl Champs! The Ellicottville Little Eagles Midget Football team won the A-Bowl Super Bowl this past weekend with a 13-7 victory over the Springville Colts. Austin Grinols led the team with two rushing TD's to put them over the top of the Colts. The Offense was led by the great blocking and holes that were broken open by the Offensive Line, led
by Billy Quinn, Zach Golley, Emily Durandetto, Evan Palmatier Hunter O’Stricker, Josh Garthwaite and Steven Rowland. The team is losing some key players this year and the Little Eagles would like to thank them and wish them luck they are William Quinn, Josh Garthwaite, Cole Lapi and Jordon Andrews.
