CNYSPCA PET OF THE WEEK
Green Lakes hosts Special Olympics
meet JEMMA
Christopher Salsbery
By Donna Newman Photo provided by CNYSPCA Valentine’s Day is over, but Jemma’s still waiting for love! Jemma is a Pitsky – a pit/husky mix. Pitskies are known for their friendly personalities and physical prowess. She has the eyes of a husky and the body of a pit. At seven years old and forty-seven pounds, Callie came to the shelter when her original family was un-
able to care for her. She gets along well with most dogs, but no cats for Jemma! Jemma is patient, loyal, and affectionate and would do well in a home with respectful kids. If you’re looking for a designer dog who’s beautiful inside and out, Jemma’s the girl for you! For more information about adoption, call 315-454-4479, email frontdesk1@cnyspca.org, or visit cnyspca.org.

Caz musicians selected for All-State ensemble
cert Choir, Chamber Choir & Jazz Ensemble. The All-State experience begins with a music teacher, his or her student and an accompanist spending countless hours preparing a NYSSMA Level VI solo which must be selected from repertoire lists in the current NYS manual. Last spring, over 6,500 sophomores and juniors from across the state of New York prepared for All-State evaluations in the hope of being selected. The concerts were held in the magnificent Eastman Theatre at the University of Rochester which has been Rochester’s preeminent performance space since its opening in 1922. This historic space has hosted the world’s greatest musicians and conductors.

well in her recent resignation announcement regarding the brutality of politics, “Statements and decisions that should not be controversial at all, quickly become so. Issues that are controversial, end up almost irrationally so.” Those of us who oppose the community grid only plan base our opposition on data, common sense, and comprehensive analysis of the economic, environmental, and social impacts of the plan (townofdewitt.com/news_detail_T10_R34.php). Nonetheless, in anticipation of the Community Grid only plan coming to fruition, the Town of Dewitt will continue – as we have been for the last 18 months – to press for the mitigation measures critical to secure the quality of life of our com-
munity. Those measures include: an additional traffic lane throughout DeWitt, re-configuration of the entrance/exits ramps at Kirkville Road and East Genesee Street, direct truck access into and out of the CSX railyards from the highway, sound and air pollution attenuation for our neighborhoods, and necessary trail and greenspace enhancements including berms, trees, and storm water controls. As the supervisor of DeWitt – the steward of my community and an environmental professional – it is my duty to object to a plan executed in the city that will so negatively impact the quality of life of the people and businesses of DeWitt.

This past weekend, nearly 500 athletes from across the state came to the Syracuse area to participate in the Special Olympics Winter Games. On Saturday, the games stormed the beach at Green Lakes State Park in Fayetteville, where athletes braved a driving snowstorm to give it their all in the snow shoeing competition. After each race, the Special Olympians were guided to the medal podium where they were awarded gold, silver and bronze medals for their achievements. Other events held throughout the weekend included skiing and snowboarding at Greek Peak, floor hockey at the OnCenter and figure skating at the War Memorial. All Special Olympics New York programs, including State Winter Games, are provided at no cost to the athletes or their families.
