The Alliance of Communities Transforming Syracuse announced last week Syracuse Police Chief Frank Fowler will receive the 2011 Ally for Positive Change award.

Fowler will receive the award at a presentation Thursday April 28 in Liverpool.

A 22-year veteran of the City of Syracuse Police Department, Fowler worked through the ranks to detective and sergeant. In 2005 he was tapped to become Deputy Chief of the Community Services Bureau and has served as Chief of Police of the Syracuse Police Department since his appointment in 2009.

Here’s what ACTS had to say about its 2011 award recipient: “Quiet and effective, Fowler has focused on training that has strengthened his abilities to work with varied groups in our community that require police attention and/or intervention.

Some of these topics include instructor development and master instructor courses, DEA Basic Narcotics School, training-the-trainer courses on cultural diversity, ethnic sensitivity, sexual harassment, racial profiling and biases, basic policing and more. He has developed extensive working knowledge in youth and gang violence and has acted as facilitator, speaker and lecturer for numerous panels and training conferences.”

Looking for something There are a lot of ‘should haves’ when it comes to county redistricting to do? Of course you are.

It took about three weeks for the county Republicans spent, the Democrats devised effort compiling such a commission would legislature to analyze and interpret data that their own redistricting plan and their own have required.

Look harder. reflects 10 years of change in our community, map of 17 districts.

But by the end of Friday, Mahoney will Our view

and if County Executive Joanie Mahoney signs the local law passed by the legislature, as she’s expected to, the entire redistricting process will have been begun and completed in less than a month.

But let us explain: the legislature didn’t spend five days a week for three weeks straight discussing the data.

The six-member reapportionment commission charged with studying the numbers and recommending a plan did the job for the legislature as a whole. And they did it in only three meetings.

Is that a shining testament to efficiency and preparedness? Or evidence of an outdated and broekn system designed to keep the majority party in place for the next 10 years, until a new census is released and reapportionment repeated?

County Democrats argued the job couldn’t be done so hastily, and they were dissatisfied with the Republican-led commission’s recommendations. So, in even less time than

Well, we agree that three meetings isn’t enough time to thoughtfully and fairly relay legislative boundaries for an entire county.

But our solution wouldn’t be to scribble out our own candy-colored map of squiggly lines and call it “not perfect, but better” than the alternative, and expect it to win the favor of our peers and constituents.

The process should have begun earlier, before the state released the census numbers in late March, and the process should have included the input of at least one expert on the subject and maybe computer software programmed to devise the best plan.

And it should have provided for more than 36 hours between the public hearing and the legislature’s vote to account for the comments, questions and concerns raised by the community.

And, since we’re just spit balling here, the process should have been performed by a commission of citizens, with no direct ties to politics, though we understand the time and

probably (or did already, depending on when you read this) sign the legislature’s local law and put the Republican-preferred 17 district boundaries into effect.

Unless roughly 14,000 county residents sign a petition to send the reapportionment vote to permissive public referendum, it’s a done deal until the next census rolls around.

Which is fine; it gives legislators the next 10 years to fix the county charter, which sets this reapportionment process up just perfectly to zoom the whole deal by the public, by the minority party, and into law.

And if they get to work now, they might just be able to find enough impartial citizens to volunteer their time to a redistricting commission before the 2020 census mailers show up in mailboxes.

That might even give said noble volunteers a chance to learn about effectively reapportioning representation without alienating minority communities or stacking the decks in favor of one party.

There’s nothing to fear but fear itself (and Republicans) “There’s nothing to fear but fear itself” was once stated boldly by a President faced with global upheaval and national economic depression. Programs were put in place that guaranteed a responsibility for the federal government as statistics indicated that our collective living conditions were abysmal. Surplus food and staples were made available at armories or other distribution points depending on the locality.

Soldiers returning from war had the G.I. Bill and other supports that enabled home ownership for many as America expanded and dominated the manufacturing world. Social Security and myriad other programs targeted the out of work American by creating projects that built parks and other infrastructure. As we entered our golden era of production, we made everything here: washing machines, air conditioning; the list would take pages.

Beneath the expanding nation were remnants of bondage which denied opportunity available to most Americans based on race.

“Jim Crow” and “separate but equal” were calls of the day. Discrimination against blacks in voting rights, employment opportunities and the

Ken Jackson

denial of basic Constitutional rights were sanctioned by state governments even as a prosperous nation moved forward.

African-Americans by the millions moved out of the segregated South in search of opportunity for a better life, not unlike those fleeing a terrorist regime. Laws were placed on the books that made many acceptable practices of the past illegal: voting rights laws were enforced, educational opportunities expanded for blacks and Affirmative Action throughout the military created diversity in workforce that became more representative of the nation we were.

Programs of the New Deal and the Great Society transformed a nation, made opportunity available to those who once were locked out. White women, the uneducated, and an assortment of “minorities” gained access. The uplifting of the American people was like a tide, and “a rising tide lifts all boats,” as they say.

Now, as our nation hurls through fiscal calamity caused by fighting two wars simultaneously and giving tax breaks to the wealthy, we’re broke. Busted. We have dust in our collective wallets. And the wealthy stand there like

the poor orphan in the classic play “Oliver!” holding an empty bowl with their outstretched hands shouting, “more tax cuts please.”

And now there are those in Congress, including our own Anne Marie Buerkle, voting to turn back the hands of time. Recent measures introduced by Republicans virtually destroy the safety net built on the blood and tears of millions. As someone who’ll be 54 in May, I’m one of those who’ll get a voucher for health care instead of Medicare. As a Republican, I’m embarrassed and ashamed of what’s become of the party of Lincoln, the party that was in front of Civil Rights before it became the back end of an elephant.

If you agree with what’s about to happen to key elements of the New Deal and the Great Society, then sit at home and do nothing. In the not-too-distant future we’ll be standing next to each other in line at a Walmart-run health center trying to maximize our Health Care/Food Stamp-style coupon.

The historic phrase should be re-branded: “There’s nothing to fear, but fear itself and today’s Republicans should be feared.”

Sometimes it seems like it’s easier to From the miss out on events than it is to actually attend them.

Not easier in the “I’m too lazy to be around people” way. “Easier” in that finding events can be a challenge, and not just because only a handful of goings-on are ever going on. (I don’t subscribe to that cop-out excuse, and neither should you!)

It is odd to me that to find something new to do on any given day, I have to seek it out. I have to actively go digging for that information in local publications and online.

Yet, I can’t turn on the radio or walk by a television without being told what new car I should be purchasing or a new prescription drug I ought to try out.

The worst is when I open up Facebook to see a gallery of new photos documenting some great event that I missed, and then I have to relive it virtually by clicking through snapshots and be reminded how I could have been doing that last Saturday night, instead of sitting at home on the couch catching up on old episodes of “Hoarders” (ugh, I know, I’m not proud of what I’ve done), and that I could have been down at the One-Take Super-8 film screening if I’d just taken 10 minutes — albeit, a tedious 10 minutes — to scour online events calendars or open up my Facebook event invitations.

Point being, I suspect a lot of people feel this way.

There is plenty to do! Not just the old and reliable — but always terrific — standbys, either, like the zoo or Onondaga Lake Park or Highland Forest.

Trust me. I know, because every week I put together a calendar for this paper that you have in your hands right now. So here are a few neat things coming up this week that I’m going to try to make a point (to remember) to do, and if I see you there, I won’t be weird or anything, or make any assumptions, I’ll just be thrilled to have company and to have had a reason to not watch another episode of what is arguably one of the worst shows on cable TV.

On the first day of April, the Corcoran boys lacrosse team’s aspirations appeared to take a serious hit when it absorbed a 17-2 loss to defending Section III Class A champion West Genesee at Wildcat Stadium in Camillus.

Since then, though, the Cougars have won four straight and, remarkably, have scored at least 20 goals in each of those efforts, including two over city opponents.

The streak began April 5 with a 20-2 romp over Nottingham. Then Corcoran rolled to a 20-8 win over Baldiwnsville and romped past Auburn 20-5, all setting up last Friday night’s meeting with city rival Henninger at Sunnycrest Field.

Though the much-improved Black Knights hung close for a half, Corcoran proved too much, taking over in the third quarter and prevailing by a score of 21-13.

Right from the start, the pace was relentless, something that seemed to favor the Cougars. Still, Henninger, down 5-3 after one period, hung in there as, led by Andrew Jackson and Alex Carni, the Black Knights closed within 8-7 by the break.

Once the second half started, though, Corcoran got whatever it wanted on the offensive side, outscoring Henninger 8-2 in that period, which accounted for most of the

final margin.

Ryan Cook, amassing four goals and five assists, and Connor Lyons, with four goals and four assists, led a potent Cougar attack where Dylan Smith found the net five times and Derek Eccles also had four goals. Cree Cathers managed two goals and four assists, with Dillon Brown and Anthony Ferlenda also scoring.

On Henninger’s side, Jackson finished with five goals and one assist as Carni picked up four goals. Chris Wigler scored twice, adding a pair of assists as Colin Montgomery and Mike LaMontagne also scored. Darryl Mercer added an assist.

As this went on, the Henninger/Nottingham girls lacrosse team won its city showdown over Corcoran, 11-6, building most of that margin through an 8-4 first half.

Erika Belge, with three goals, led a wellbalanced attack. Nicole Fiorini had two goals and two assists, while Nora Cunningham and Claire Wigler also scored twice. Jamie Peterson and Chantelle Sherman had the other goals. Six different players – Morgan Doyle, Erin Kenney, Karen Boronczyk, Alyssa Consentino, Kaylah Wicks and Hailey Boronczyk – had the six Corcoran goals.

Back on the boys end, Corcoran would be favored in games this week against CiceroNorth Syracuse and Central Square before the April 27 rematch with West Genesee, this time on home turf.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Dig a Ponyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

I dare you to name another local band that plays â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dig a Ponyâ&#x20AC;? by The Beatles â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a song which John Lennon called â&#x20AC;&#x153;a piece of garbageâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Lamb Lies Down on Broadwayâ&#x20AC;? by Genesis â&#x20AC;&#x201C; another animal-titled tune based on a Peter Gabriel nightmare.

But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the repertoire that makes Better Than Bowling better than other classic rock acts.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the personalities.

Singer Sharon Allen has a cheery disposition and a chimeraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vocal cords. Drummer Dave Clement repairs computers by day and renders rhythms by night. And heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s open-minded enough to allow his daughter, Erika, to sing with the band.

Guitarist Tom Marr is fascinated by Vargas girls.

Guitarist Paul Power punctuates his picking with harmonica blasts, and bassist Tom Navagh regularly launches into surreal commentaries that even his bandmates canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite grasp.

Still not convinced that Better Than Bowlingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all that?

Consider this roadhouse recollection from guitarist Tom Marr: â&#x20AC;&#x153;In 10 years Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll exaggerate this story to mythic proportions, so at least youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting it while itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty much literally true. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Last Aug. 29 we played a smallish boonies bar called Frankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Moondance Tavern on Route.

I think there was a pretense of it being â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;all in fun,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; but he was surely trying to score on me. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I told him, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Come on, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my last chance to wear white because after Labor Day theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll call me a Jezebel,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; but to no avail. I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t talk him

off my back. Next tune was Hendrixâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Little Wingâ&#x20AC;? with dramatic lead guitar breaks with lots of sustain and vibrato bar.

2011 Wing Tournament: Northside/Eastwood Results On the heels of the Downtown results comes the Northside/Eastwood bracket.

Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bar and Grill took on Gianniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bronx Style Pizza, with Change of Pace faced Original Italian Pizza.

Northside/Eastwood Game 1

(1) Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bar & Grillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;hotâ&#x20AC;? wings: 4 points (4) NY Gianniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bronx Style Pizzaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;hotâ&#x20AC;? wings: 3 points

The closest match-up to date pitted Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hot wings against Gianniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hot wings.

While Gianniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;dartâ&#x20AC;? style wings, a mix of hot, garlic, and barbecue flavors, should not go unnoticed, their hot wings were barely edged out by Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. For the first time in the tournament, blue cheese actually had to play tie-breaker.

As a 4-seed, Gianniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s puts out strong competition with wings that have a great skin and a good balance of slight crunchiness covered in a very vinegar-based Buffalo sauce. Make sure you have napkins for these! While hotness and amount of sauce may have been in favor of Gianniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s homemade sauce was slightly more classic and even contained tiny

pieces of tomatoes and chilies hiding among the wings.

Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also boasted tender meat (5 out of 5 on my account) and were great bar wings overall.

Downsides of Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s were a rather disappointing lack of heat (which was more like a strong mild) and a sauce that tended to dry out midway through the meal. Gianniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bad for take-out and on this visit were a winning combo with their delicious sheet pizza, but Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s takes the battle with larger and more consistent wings, tender meat, good flavor, and perfectly chunky blue cheese.

Winner: Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bar & Grill

Northside/Eastwood Game 2

(2) Change of Paceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hot / Extra Crispyâ&#x20AC;? wings: 5 points (3) Original Italian Pizzaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hot / Char-Grilledâ&#x20AC;? wings: 1 point

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let the lop-sided score fool you: both of these competitors faired very well and were above average in most cases. OIP was able to pull out perfectly tender char-grilled chicken coated in a hot sauce that had a great peppery

flavor. Change of Pace was highlighted by jumbo chicken wings covered in an excellent and traditional Buffalo sauce with a lingering heat that, in terms of this bracket, was refreshing to taste. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d do OIP again for take-out wings, but this one goes to Change of Pace. While their brand contained an above average amount of tendons, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to resist their classic flavor and what were otherwise perfect and traditional Buffalo wings in all other aspects.

Winner: Change of Pace

the best in the tournament) with a slight edge going to Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for a chunky style, which Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a fan of. Honestly, I was hoping Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s would bring the heat with their wings, seeing as how they come in various styles like fatal, xtra hot, and f-bomb, to name a few. But Change of Paceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s were actually hotter. Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great chicken meat and excellent homemade sauce flavor wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough to pass Change of Paceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jumbo wings the contained a slightly crispy skin covered in a great classic wing sauce.

Winner and champion of the Northside / Eastwood bracket: Change of Pace

Northside/Eastwood Second Round: Championship Game

There you have it. Change of Pace will take on Dinosaur Bar-B-Que in the Final Four.

Stay tuned for the remaining 2 brackets. And Pulled Into Syracuseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2011 Wing Tournament Champion will be crowned within the next couple weeks.

Shiftyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sure likes a close match-up, but it just wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough to surpass Change of Pace.

Odd/even parking, and other parking questions answered Now that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safe again to go outside, at least for a couple of months, brush up on what you think you know about parking regulations in the city of Syracuse.

City Director of Constituent Services Lindsay Speicherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blog, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Syracuse City Livingâ&#x20AC;? includes a comprehensive FAQ post about parking in the city limits, and how to do it without getting a ticket.

Yes, there are ways, according to Speicher. Our suggestion: keep a calendar in your car. Odd/even parking is the worst.

Rory McIlroy had the Masters in his grasp.

Eighteen holes left, a four-shot lead, three days of brilliant golf behind him.

Then the final round started. An indifferent front nine turned into utter disaster on the back, the public bleeding profuse until it ended 80 shots later, Rory a whopping 10 shots behind the charging Charl Schwartzel, who birdied the last four holes to slip on the green coat.

20 WHITE T-SHIRTS

In less than a month, Onondaga County legislators waded through a decade of census data to create 17 new legislative districts in a reapportionment and redistricting process that some argue did not employ enough research or input from the public.

The legislature on Friday April 15 approved the local law to enact reapportioned legislative districts, based on the recommendation made by the Reapportionment Committee on Tuesday April 5. Districts are reapportioned every decade following a US census, and this year legislators were also tasked with shrinking the number of districts from 19 to 17, after voters approved the reduction last fall.

The new districts were approved in a 12 to 7 vote along party lines, with Republicans supporting the commissionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal.

Democrats argued last Friday that the Republicansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; redraw, coined â&#x20AC;&#x153;Plan A,â&#x20AC;? put votersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; needs second to protecting incumbent Republican legislators.

County Democrats had presented their own â&#x20AC;&#x153;Plan Bâ&#x20AC;? maps, which were defeated Friday.

Republicans say the new districts promote â&#x20AC;&#x153;metropolitizationâ&#x20AC;? by adding urban neighborhoods to some previously suburban districts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re tying to get away from â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;urban against suburbanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;,â&#x20AC;? said Legislative Chairman Jim Rhinehart, R-6th. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very important that legislators represent both suburban and urban neighborhoods.â&#x20AC;?

Each new district accounts for an average of 27,000 voters, said Rhinehart. The average population of the current 19 districts is roughly 23,000, he said.

Election commissioners were not available to verify those numbers at press time.

seven or eight or nine districts that are almost exactly the same as they were to start, because they happen to be Republican districts out in the suburbs,â&#x20AC;? said floor leader Mark Stanczyk, 9th-D. He contended the six-member Reapportionment Commission â&#x20AC;&#x153;did not act like a commissionâ&#x20AC;? by excluding input from the Democrats.

Legislator Linda Ervin, D-19th, was appointed to the commission by Stanczyk. Ervin and Elections Commissioner Ed Ryan were the only two Democrats and both voted against the proposal.

Ervin said she was disappointed by the way the commission was run and the districts it recommended to the legislature. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew this was happening this year, and I thought throughout the year that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be doing some great things together,â&#x20AC;? Ervin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The [census] figures came out and all of a sudden, here we are and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done.â&#x20AC;?

Ervin said she attended the three commission meetings that were held, but was given little insight into the process used to draw the new districts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They contend that they looked at the numbers, when I asked point blank â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;why do we have this new district in DeWitt?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; -- that district has pushed everything else west -- I received no answer,â&#x20AC;? Ervin said, referring to the new district 7. â&#x2013;ˇ â&#x20AC;&#x153;Clearly, it was created for someone.â&#x20AC;?

Seven incumbents won’t run again

Come November, representatives of each legislative district will be up for re-election, part of the reduction process that will take the legislature from 19 representatives and districts down to 17. Of the 19 incumbents, seven have already announced they will not seek reelection, including the legislative chair: Richard Lesnkiak, R-1st Jim Rhinehart, (Legislative Chair), R-6th Thomas Buckel, D-7th Jim Corbett, R-8th Bill Kinne, D-15th Martin Masterpole, D-17th

Democrats also found fault in the April 13 public hearing on the commission’s proposed reapportionment.

Stanczyk argued that there was no way input from the public that was heard Wednesday could be incorporated into the local law voted on Friday by the legislature.

“Local laws were on the desk. The public input could never be taken into account because it couldn’t change the local laws that were on the desk,” Stanczyk said.

He said the process “made a sham of the commission, and it made a sham of the In the new Onondaga public hearing.”

Around Town Gage holds Civil War 122nd flag commemoration

The Matilda Joslyn Gage Foundation last week held a ceremony on its front lawn to commemorate the presentation of a Civil War flag to the 122nd Regiment of New York State Volunteers.

The event took place April 12 on the sesquicentennial anniversary of the start of the Civil War. The actual flag presentation by Gage occurred on Aug. 25, 1862, when she presented it to local soldiers who were marching off to war.

More than 12,000 men of Onondaga fought in the Civil War from 1861 to 1865.

“When the war began, Matilda Joslyn Gage hung a flag from this house to commemorate that this work was being done to end slavery,” said Gage House Executive Director Sally Roesch Wagner. “She saw this as a terrible event, but an absolutely necessary one, because everything to that point had been tried, and war was finally necessary. If this is what it took to bring freedom to African Americans, this is what needed to happen.”

were from the same community; they wanted to do their duty but they wanted to come home with the flag their mom made.”

The flag presented to the 122nd regiment had hand-stitched on its stripes, “Presented by the Ladies of Fayetteville.”

Onondaga County is the repository for the original flag.

Standing with the reproduction of the 122nd flag are, clockwise from front left: County Clerk Ann Ciarpelli, flagmakers Jane Tracy and Dolly Monteleone, Legislator Bill Meyer (District 3) and “Matilda Joslyn Gage.”

Gage had offered her home and continued to offer it as a station on the Underground Railroad, and risked imprisonment – six months in jail and a $1,000 fine (equivalent to $23,000 in today’s money) for each freedom taker she invited into her home.

“She said it was one of the proudest moments of her life when the Rev. Jermain Lougen came to [her] door and asked her if she would [offer her home] and she said ‘absolutely.’”

The Gage home is now a state and federally designated Underground Railroad site.

Among local officials at the event were Onondaga County legislators Bill Meyer (District 3), Kevin Holmquist (District 10) and Judy Tassone (District 4); Manlius Supervisor Ed Theobald and County Clerk Ann Ciarpelli. Members of the Civil War Roundtable arrived in period dress.

Meyer, whose district includes the town of Cicero where Gage grew up, presented declarations to Jane Tracy and Dolly Monteleone, two local women who created the reproduction of the original 122nd flag; Jim Keib, an active member of the Civil War Flag Committee; and Darothy DeAngelo and the Onondaga County Civil War Roundtable.

Meyer also thanked Onondaga Historical Association Executive Director Greg Tripoli, recognizing that the OHA has played a critical role in the county’s flag restoration project over the last 10 years.

“The flag that a lot of the soldiers took off to battle was the flag that their mother, their wife, their sister made,” Meyer said. “A lot of the troops

Meter Mad: Skaneateles’ Chief Perkins talks about village parking regs Like parolees from prison winter, CNY’s cabin fever residents are eagerly anticipating the ability to “get out and get away,” if only for a weekend drive. And a Skaneateles Lake visit is the perfect tonic to a long work week.

Only, does anybody remember where we parked?

There are days when finding a street parking spot in the village of Skaneateles can be a challenge. Add a warm, sunny weekend to this and “challenge” becomes “nearly impossible.” Village residents, merchants and their employees still strongly voice their opinion with regard to the street parking laws.

Specifically, why does it cost money to park on Sundays and holidays? Doesn’t this keep visitors from coming here?

The cloudless sky is a beautiful blue; the temperature reads “T-shirt this afternoon with a possibility of jacket this evening.” The waitress just brought the food and there’s a crystal blue lake just outside the window that’s been waiting all winter. There’s also a town policeman strolling down the lakeside walk. Then the policeman stops at a car and starts to write on a pad.

“I hear about this a lot,” said Skaneateles Police Chief Lloyd Perkins. “Even though we’re just enforcing the law, I understand how people see this.”

The parking policy described on village parking meters dictates that from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Monday to Saturday parking is 25 cents per half hour, with a 2-hour limit (3-hour limit on West Genesee Street). On Sundays and holidays the hours are noon to 6 p.m.

So why Sundays?

“It’s about parking space turnover, even on Sundays,” Perkins said. “Without time limits

what was happening was that people would drive into town, park, maybe unload a bicycle or meet somebody and take off. Their car would be there all day. The more this happened, fewer spaces were available for people who wanted to visit just a little while to browse the lake shops or dine. With no parking spaces, tourists would just drive through the town without stopping.”

Off-street in the larger municipal parking lot behind the Jordan Street shops was falling victim as well. Oddly, even during the week.

“Commuters from areas around Skaneateles were meeting in the big lot,” said Perkins. “They’d carpool from there and leave their cars all day.”

Parking violations don’t always result in a stiff fine. First-time offenders are often pleased to see a “courtesy envelope” under their windshield wiper, asking for a small donation — a hint to be a bit more “time conscious” in the future. Second offense will earn a ticket.

“We give out more courtesy envelopes than anything else,” said Perkins. “$5 dollars is the suggested donation, but we receive more sometimes. Once as much as $50, the guy was so happy not to get a ticket that ordinarily might have run him $100 or more. The police force will always enforce the laws and policies mandated by the town and village boards.”

‘Jog For a Dog’ with CNY SPCA Are you a dog lover who enjoys the outdoors and would be willing to give a few hours a month to help a dog? If so, you are a good candidate for the new “Jog For A Dog” program being launched at the Central New York SPCA. The program is designed to pair runners with dogs, giving dogs an opportunity to burn off excess energy and improve their chances for adoption.

Every week several dogs are considered for adoption at the CNY SPCA, but their pentup energy shows itself in negative ways, like jumping and barking for attention. This deters potential families from welcoming them into their homes. The “Jog For A Dog” program is designed for dogs to burn off excess energy, so their true colors can shine to potential owners.

Even after the first steps of a run, changes can be seen in a dog’s demeanor and energy level. Running for 30 minutes expends the approximately the amount of energy as a two-anda-half hour walk, so even a short run can be a ▷ positive experience for a dog.

Jog for a dog Kevin Newman of Baldwinsville, an avid runner and CNY SPCA volunteer who has run with shelter dogs, said, “The dogs are typically overactive when initially let out. . . [but] after a hundred yards or less they have gotten used to the pace and are happily running with me.” In addition to exponentially increasing the dogs’ chances for adoption, regular exercise improves a pup’s overall health, stabilizes mood, enhances mental alertness, relieves boredom, curbs behavior issues, and relieves stress and anxiety. It also is an opportunity for dogs to become more

socialized.

The CNYSPCA’s Director of Education, Kim Smith, agrees. “Dogs are not meant to live in cages. This program will give the dogs proper exercise that they need. It also allows them to form a bond with the runner, and gives them the socialization that they need on a daily basis.”

The purpose of the program is to help the dogs, but it also benefits the runners, as well.

People who take the time to volunteer not only help their community, they report less stress, more fulfillment, increased self-confidence and better physical health. Bryan Morgan, the owner and trainer at Dynamic Health and

Help Wanted For Sale Garage Sales

Fitness and supporter of the program, said, “Aerobic exercise has several positive benefits that our community should take advantage of.

Feeling better about yourself, reducing your health risks, burning calories to help fat loss, and strengthening your heart and lungs are a few.” Regular exercise has also been linked to increased immune activity and the promotion of a healthier lifestyle. “Most importantly,” Morgan said, “make sure to pace yourself and have fun while giving back to not only your body, but to the animals in need.”

There will be a half-mile route and a mile route. Runners will be paired with certain dogs

that are able to run at least half the distance.

Runners must be at least 18 years old and attend an orientation, which will be held soon at the CNY SPCA, 5878 East Molloy Road in Syracuse. If interested, contact Kim Smith at education@cnyspca.org or call the shelter at 454- 4479. If you’re not a runner, but you’d still like to help, there are many other volunteer opportunities available.

The CNY SPCA offers animals a second chance for a happy life. Take some time and improve a dog’s life. You may find that it is the most rewarding part of your day.
