HoliMont Athletes Headed to 2018 Winter Olympics

By Deb Everts

HoliMont Ski Resort member Darren Gardner will fulfi ll his dream as a competitor in the Winter Olympics as he heads to PyeongChang, South Korea, to represent Team Canada in the parallel giant slalom.

“It is certainly an honor and I’m very proud to wear the maple leaf. To be a part of such an amazing team is something special,” Gardner said. “This will be my fi rst games as a competitor. I had the privilege of forerunning the Vancouver Olympics in 2010, and I just missed out on being selected for the team in Sochi, so this is defi nitely a great feeling.”

The Ellicottville School Board of Education on Tuesday got a fi rst reading of proposed changes to its policy for admission of non-resident students that makes minor adjustments to several facets of the document.

Red Cross Announces Upcoming Blood Donation Opportunities

Ongoing severe winter weather has more than doubled the number of canceled American Red Cross blood drives and the resulting blood and platelet donation shortfall since earlier this month. The Red Cross now considers the situation critical and is reissuing an urgent call for blood and platelet donors.

Make an appointment to give blood or platelets by downloading the free Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting redcrossblood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS

Upcoming blood donation opportunities in the Ellicottville area include: Feb. 10, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church, 109 S. Barry St., Olean; Feb. 12, noon to 5:30 p.m., Elks Lodge, 209 W. State St., Olean; Feb. 14, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Olean General Hospital, 515 Main St., Olean;

Coming from three generations of HoliMont members, Gardner started his journey to the Winter Olympics skiing and riding the slopes of HoliMont, where he developed his skills at an early age to become a world-class competitor.

“Darren was born and bred at HoliMont,” said his mother, Donna. “He was skiing at age 2 and, after he learned how to ski, he started snowboarding at age 4.”

Now 27, Gardner said he has always looked up to his father, Bruce, whom he credits for getting him into snowboarding at such an early age and competing by age 7. When he began snowboarding at HoliMont, he competed on the U.S. circuit before switching over to the Canadian circuit. He said HoliMont is his home, and it has a great snowboard program with excellent coaches who helped him get to where he is today.

“We are very proud and supportive of Darren’s accomplishments, as well as the other athletes we produce at HoliMont who are also competing at a high-level,” said Dave Riley, general manager of HoliMont Ski Resort.

“This year, we have seven participants who are on national teams — either U.S. or Canadian.

“Several of them were very close to making their team and, frankly, we were disappointed that others were not also chosen to participate in the Olympic games. Darren’s accomplishment, however, has left us absolutely thrilled and excited that he has been chosen for the Canadian Olympic Team.”

According to CBC Sports, Gardner, of Burlington, Ontario, and Jasey-Jay Anderson of MontTremblant, Quebec, will represent Canada in the parallel giant slalom at the Olympic winter games. In addition to seven athletes previously nominated for slopestyle and big air, the

athletes are among 13 other snowboarders in snowboard cross and halfpipe who were named Jan. 25 to Canada’s Alpine Snowboard Team.

The athletes were selected based on their performances in Federation International de Ski (FIS) Snowboard World Cup and World Championship events between July 1, 2016, and Jan. 21, 2018.

After competing in two FIS Snowboard World Cup races in Bansko, Bulgaria, Gardner returned home Jan. 29 for a short break before preparing for the games. He said these were the last of the World Cup races before heading to PyeongChang.

Along with his team, Gardner participated in the Alpine National Championships at Blue Mountain Resort, in Ontario, this week — his last race before the Olympic Games. From there, he plans to head to Canmore, Alberta, for a training camp before touching down Feb. 17 in South Korea.

He said Olympic snowboarding became his focus while watching the 1998 Nagano games when Ross Rebagliati won the fi rst gold medal in Olympic snowboarding.

“That was the moment when I decided I wanted to do the same,” he said. “Also on that team was Jasey-Jay Anderson, who won gold in 2010. He happens to be the other team member traveling to Korea with me.”

After graduating from high school, Gardner was invited to train with the National Development team in Calgary. In 2009, he joined the Development Team and, in 2010, was named to the National Team and participated in his fi rst World Cup Race. By 2012, he was competing full-time on the World Cup circuit.

A three-time Canadian National Champion, Gardner fi nished the 201617 season as the top-ranked Canadian man in the World Cup parallel snowboard standings and is in the Top 30 in the world. In February

2015, he achieved a careerbest result of 12th place in the parallel giant slalom in Asahikawa, Japan.

Gardner will be racing in the parallel giant slalom Feb. 22 and 24, Korean time. In the U.S., people can see the televised race Feb. 21 and 23 at 10 p.m.

Eastern Standard Time.

He hopes to bring home a bright, shiny medal in the Alpine snowboarding event, which pits two racers head-to-head down parallel courses.

In the off-season, Gardner lives in Squamish, British Columbia, where he attends college and trains.

Tricia Mangan Just this week, it was announced that Tricia Mangan, of Derby, N.Y., has been added to the US Olympic team for Alpine Skiing. Mangan will replace Jackie Wiles, who was ruled out of the games due to a knee injury that occurred during a World Cup downhill event in Germany last weekend.

Mangan learned to ski in Ellicottville on the slopes of HoliMont. She joined the racing team at an early age, coached by many including Travis Widger, Jeff Walker and Bob Armstrong.

Mangan attended Buffalo’s Nardin Academy, and was selected for the US Ski team while still in high school.

Four years ago, when the Ellicottville Times covered Mangan’s early years on the US Ski Team at the age of 16, she told us: “The plan is I am developing myself to hopefully complete in the Olympics!”

Now her dreams are coming true.

Congratulations to Tricia, Darren and all of the US Olympic athletes.

Ellicottville is cheering you on!

Ellicottville Takes 2nd loss of Season at Centercourt Classic, Improves to 16-2

By Sam Wilson

A slow start put the Ellicottville boys basketball team behind 11 points after one quarter, a defi cit that would last the duration of a Saturday Centercourt Classic tilt.

The inaugural Classic held at Williamsville South and organized by basketball enthusiast Chad Andrews, who runs the popular View From Centercourt website and @centercourt42 Twitter handle, featured four games, starting with a Franklinville victory, 81-53, over Medina.

In the next tipoff, also featuring a CCAA/NiagaraOrleans clash, Newfane jumped on Ellicottville for a 17-6 lead after the fi rst quarter, and foul trouble plagued the Eagles in a 6251 loss.

Kyle DeVoogel paced Newfane (12-4) with 24 points and Max Weber had 12. With 21 fouls, Ellicottville put Newfane at the free throw line for 28 points on 35 attempts.

Elliot Bowen led the Eagles with 18 points and 11 rebounds, while Griffi n Chudy had 15 points and seven rebounds before fouling out.

“We dug ourselves an 11-point hole and we had 11 turnovers in the fi rst quarter,” Ellicottville coach Dave McCann said. “We didn’t rebound very well, we didn’t shoot very well, we didn’t pass very well.

“We got (the lead) down to six three or four times in the third quarter, we just couldn’t get over the hump.

They’d get an offensive rebound or we’d get a foul at

the wrong time just being a little too aggressive.”

Still, McCann said the loss to a strong Class B-1 school could serve his team well with three games left before the Class D playoffs.

“I think it was a game that we had a chance to win going into and we just didn’t start very well,” he said. “We need to learn some things going into the playoffs and I think we learned some things. It’s a good loss in a sense.”

In other high school boys basketball action for the Eagles: Ellicottville 78, Pine Valley 61 Austin Grinols registered 14 points, seven rebounds and eight assists as Ellicottville bounced back from just its second loss of the season with a Senior Night win Tuesday.

Elliot Bowen posted 24 points, seven rebounds and six blocks and Griffi n Chudy added 22 points and six boards for the Eagles (16-2, 8-1).

“We got off to a good start offensively,” said Eagles coach Dave McCann, whose team held a 29-17 lead through just one quarter.

Stephan Crisanti had 18 points for Pine Valley (7-10).

With just two games left before the Section 6 Class D playoffs, the Eagles can clinch at least a share of the CCAA East II championship with a win Thursday at North Collins.

Ellicottville 81, Cattaraugus-LV 33 Three days after hitting the game-winning free throw to beat Franklinville, Griffi n Chudy had an allaround game of 19 points, 11 rebounds, six steals and four assists to power Ellicottville Friday.

Austin Grinols had 20 points, four assists and four steals and Elliot Bowen notched 14 points and 13 rebounds for the Eagles.

Austin Baker had 14 points for Cattaraugus-LV.

Ellicottville Girls Win Two Straight

Linnea Jimerson racked up 17 points and 20 rebounds to lift the Ellicottville girls basketball team (8-8, 5-3) to its second win in a row Monday, edging out Pine Valley 50-41.

Evie Cortez added 13 points for the Eagles (8-9), who let a 14-point halftime lead slip away before pulling away again in the fourth quarter.

Kayla Hohl had 25 points for Pine Valley (10-6). The Eagles avenged a fi ve-point loss.

Ellicottville 39, Cattaraugus-Little Valley 21 After surrendering 82 points in a loss at league-best undefeated Franklinville, Ellicottville (7-8) responded, holding Cattaraugus-Little Valley to fi ve fi rst-half points in bouncing back Thursday, Feb. 1.

Linnea Jimerson paced the Eagles with 21 points and 16 rebounds.

Abby Gostomski and Erin Washburn had six points each for C-LV (7-10).

“Defensively we played with a lot more focus and effort,” Eagles coach Chad Bartoszek said. “After the Franklinville loss we had to reboot and go back to basics. I’m hoping we can carry that into next week, we have three league games coming up.

“Defense was defi nitely the focus tonight.”

Season of Giving organizations at the school were able to touch the lives of individuals worldwide.

The Spanish Club, advised by Jamie Edwards, hosted a “Fiesta Fundraiser” in October.

Planned for the sixthgraders, its goal was to raise money for Puerto Rican hurricane victims.

After a fun-fi lled afternoon of piñata-bashing, quesoeating, and middle-school boisterousness, the Spanish Club was proud to send just under $100 to those who had lost their homes, possessions, and family members in the natural disaster. Ginna Hensel, the Spanish Club’s president, was happy to have organized an “eye-opening experience where we could have fun while helping out our Spanish-speaking friends.” The club hopes to have another ‘fun’draising event in the very near future.

After a few years of dormancy, Ellicottville’s French Club revitalized its popular Holiday Ornament Sale. Santas, snowmen, and other festive shapes were all made and hand painted by club members.

On the ornaments’ strings was attached a tag: “Thank you for your donation to Heifer International.”

Heifer International is a charity organization that, as its website proclaims, is “working to end hunger and poverty around the world by providing livestock and training to struggling communities.”

The entire school got

Continued from front page

on board and, after the week was up, club advisor Dolores Whistler was able to deposit $600 into the club’s account. The French Club then met to choose the animals. After some friendly debate, the students decided on a group of rabbits, a “Flock of Hope” (chickens, geese and ducks), a pig, some chicks, a couple of honeybee hives, an entire water buffalo, and, with the remaining tenner, a share of a sheep. Hannah DeChane, the club’s secretary, was pleased. “I was impressed with how many animals we were able to donate, and it feels good that our community is helping people from all over the world,” she said.

The French Club’s next philanthropic endeavor will involve crêpes and Doctors without Borders.

ESPRA, or Ellicottville Students Preserving the Reading of America, took a fi eld trip on Jan. 18. It wasn’t just any trip, however; they were on a mission. ESPRA members (advised by Holly Richardson) embarked into a blizzard bearing overfl owing boxes of school supplies and books. The Teacher’s Desk, a local organization dedicated to providing free school supplies to lowincome districts, was the destination. Set up like a department store, teachers are able choose from a wide selection of writing utensils, new and used books, stationary, janitorial

supplies, stuffed animals, and much more.

Founder John Mika, the group’s guide for the day, recounted the moment when he found his calling.

“After I retired from factory work, I began to substitute teach. I worked all over, from in the inner city to the Williamsville suburbs, and I noticed something that bothered me. In Williamsville, at the end of the day, there were pencils all over the fl oor.

In Buffalo, few kids had a pencil for class, let alone other supplies.”

That day, everything clicked into place for John.

He was going to make sure that every single child had a pencil. His dream has now blossomed into a far-reaching organization that changes the lives of many. After volunteering in the warehouse, ESPRA members left feeling like they had truly made a difference.

Though all the school’s clubs stand for different things, the overall theme and resonating message is ubiquitous. As a school and as a community, Ellicottville feels very fortunate. To truly appreciate what we have, we must give to those who don’t. The community has gone above and beyond to make this wonderful giving happen. ECS wishes this to be a thank you to all who donated, and a reminder that little things can make a big difference.

in their former district.

The policy draft also now refl ects prekindergarten non-resident applications and language that establishes enrollment limits and waiting lists for all grade levels based on factors such as population and the academic needs of each grade level.

Miller instructed school board members to look over the proposed changes to the policy and a revised edition is expected to be on an upcoming agenda for offi cial approval.

Also during a relatively light school board meeting on Tuesday, the board learned that signage may be going up inside the school to help direct

visitors to key rooms like the gymnasium and library.

Miller told the board he expects to bring the topic of installing signage to the Buildings and Grounds Committee at a future meeting.

“It will cost us a little bit of money but I think it’ll be well worth it,” Miller said.

“We are just talking some simple signs with some arrows that point you in the direction of places.”

The board was also reminded that 13 students will be heading to Costa Rica on Feb. 17 out of Toronto Pearson Airport and return Feb. 25 under the direction of Spanish teacher Jamie Edwards. Miller said

Edwards recently held an informational meeting late last month for attendees and their parents.

“Jamie Edwards has done a ton of work putting this trip together,” Miller said, adding he was impressed with the thoroughness of preparation for the trip.

The board had previously approved the trip, including allowing the school to transport the students and chaperones to and from Toronto, Ontario.

Winter Olympics Continued from front page

There are four new events added by the International Olympic Committee for 2018, which include big air in snowboarding and freestyle skiing (an event where the competitor rides a snowboard down a hill and performs tricks after launching off very large jumps), as well as mass start speed skating and mixed doubles curling.

In addition, six countries will be making their Winter Olympic debut, according to Olympic.org: Ecuador, Eritrea, Kosovo, Malaysia, Nigeria and Singapore.

A rundown of the new competitors is as follows: Ecuador: Klaus Jungbluth Rodriguez, 38, will represent Ecuador in cross country skiing. He is known as the “Tarmac Skier” because of his

training on roller skis.

Eritrea: CanadianEritrean Shannon-Ogbani Abeda will not be the fi rst African to take to the Alpine skiing slopes at the Olympic Winter Games, but he opens the way for Eritrea, the East African country where his parents are from.

Kosovo: Alpine skier Albin Tahiri is going to compete in all of the Alpine skiing disciplines, even if he is in fact more of a specialist in the speed events. He says he raced nearly every day in a different event in order to rack up enough FIS points to qualify for the Olympic Games, and fi nished off the season absolutely exhausted.

Malaysia: The tropical State of Malaysia is making its Winter Games

debut with not one, but two competitors—Jeffrey Webb and Julian Yee. Nigeria: Pilot Seun Adigun (who competed in the 100m hurdles in the London 2012 summer games) and her teammates Ngozi Onwumere and Akuoma Omeoga grew up and studied in the US. In 2014, Adigun turned to bobsleigh with the aim of reaching the Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018.

Singapore: At 18 years old, Cheyenne Goh becomes the fi rst Singaporean athlete to compete at the Winter Games in Short Track Speed Skating.

Health & Fitness

Engage the Core

By Kim Duke NETA & AAFA Certified Trainer

By now, most of us have heard that we need to “engage the core” for better stability and function. But people often interpret “engage” to mean “suck in”— so they proceed to suck in their belly buttons while exercising. Unfortunately, that is the exact opposite of how you should engage the core as it actually destabilizes your core.

Think of it this way: when someone’s about

to tackle you, you don’t prepare yourself for impact by putting your feet close together, right? No, you plant them farther apart to create a wider, better base of support. Sucking your stomach in toward your spine is the core equivalent of standing with your feet close together. So how do you create that wider base of support?

When engaging your core for stability, the goal is to create as solid a ring of muscles around your mid-section as possible.

To achieve that, you have

to activate your core muscles slightly outward, stiffening them to create a protective “cylinder” around your abdomen. It’s a crucial component for good function, but it’s also easier said than done for those out of practice. Here are a few ways to get the feel for it: • Use your front six-pack abdominal muscle to “pull up” on the front of your pelvis (not in), then bear down a little in order to push your abdomen out in all directions.

• Try using a quick, forceful grunt to help you push your mid-section outward as if bracing it for a punch to the gut. Do it repeatedly to really get the feel.

• Your core naturally engages as the very fi rst step in coughing or laughing. So another way to get the feel for how to correctly activate your core is by initiating one of those actions–you’re looking for that abdominal activation that takes place just before any cough or laugh actually occurs.

• Or rest your hands on either side of your abdomen and try to push them away using only your abdominal muscles.

It’s a little tricky at fi rst but soon becomes second nature. I promise, you won’t have to walk around with your hands against your abdomen forever!

Franklinville RV Campground Looks to Add Splash Pad

Photo by Rick Miller John and Jennifer Tinelli of D&T Resorts, owner of Triple R Campground in Franklinville, show a mockup of a LeeKee Splash Pad they plan to add at the resort. They were seeking IDA benefits at a meeting on Feb. 1.

By Rick Miller

T&D Resort Inc., owner of Triple R Campground in Franklinville, asked the Cattaraugus County Industrial Development Agency for assistance last week to add an $800,000 LeeKee Lagoon Splash Pad attraction.

Owners John and Jennifer Tinelli, who fi ve years ago bought Triple R Campground on Bryant Hill Road, Franklinville, said they have grown about 30 percent each year. They hope the new attractions can help add 10,000 or more new reservations a year.

The resort is open from April to October and is full most weekends and holidays. The greatest potential for growth is to expand RV camping during weekdays, he said.

The splash pad and large hot tub will complement the resort’s two swimming pools, John Tinelli told members of the Industrial Development Agency during its Feb. 1 meeting.

It should also attract new visitors from the region and beyond, since there are only fi ve in the state and only one other in the region, Jellystone Campground in North Java, John Tinelli said.

Triple R Campground already has a 10/10/10 score with Sam’s Clubs based on competitiveness, cleanliness and visual and environmental quality, John

Tinelli explained. The 39acre campground is located on a 69-acre site and has 214 campsites, a pond, four cabins, RV rentals, volleyball courts and a playground.

Jennifer Tinelli said they are being conservative and will construct the splash pad and hot tub area in two phases. Phase 1 will be the large hot tub. Construction is expected to begin in the spring. Phase 2, the LeeKee Lagoon Splash Pad, will be open in 2020, the resort’s 50th anniversary.

“If we can get it done sooner, we will,” she added. It will be the fi rst such attraction in the county.

The pool capacity will increase from the 105 people to 255 swimmers.

Corey Wiktor, the IDA executive director said the project is seeking sales tax exemption on furnishings and equipment, a tourism destination P.I.L.O.T. (payment in lieu of taxes) and mortgage recording tax exemption valued at at estimated $90,000.

Wiktor noted D&T Resort Inc. had been awarded $160,812 for the project in the latest round of Western New York Regional Economic Development Council grants.

The project is expected to produce two new jobs plus construction jobs and new sales tax revenue.

Jennifer Tinelli said

local restaurants and other businesses are always asking when Triple R Campground is going to open because they want to stock up and be ready for the visitors. “We support our local community. We open in 77 days,” she added. This year Triple R Campground will be open from April 20 to Columbus Day. John Tinelli added, “Our economic impact on Franklinville exceeds anyone else.” There are four other campgrounds in the surrounding area, he said.

Based on the application and the project’s description, the IDA board approved a State Environmental Quality Review Act resolution and agreed to set a public hearing on the project later this month.

Wiktor told the board he is continuing to work to establish an Economic Development Council to advise the IDA and serve as a roundtable for discussions on different sectors of the county’s economy. The fi rst one will be with commercial realtors and investors.

Wiktor also reported the Buffalo Niagara Partnership, of which the Cattaraugus County IDA is a member, will be producing an economic development report for Cattaraugus County.

Team Pritchard Donates to Ellicottville Fire Department

Recently, Team Pritchard of ERA Team VP Real Estate donated pet oxygen masks to the Ellicottville Fire Department. Team Pritchard is comprised of Cathleen Pritchard and Melanie Pritchard, two Licensed Associate Real Estate Brokers, along with their Executive Assistant and Licensed Real Estate Salesperson.

Melanie works hard in her spare time for the charity C.L.A.W.S., which traps then spays or neuters stray cats. When it came to her attention that pet oxygen masks are something fi re departments need and usually do not have, she instantly ordered one for the Ellicottville Fire Department.

Giving the walk through was Ed Fredrickson, Fire Chief, and Daniel Kruszynski, Fire Captain and Paramedic.

Snocross Event Returns to Salamanca Next Weekend

Photo by Rich Place Snowmobile racers make their way around the track at a previous visit by the AMSOIL Championship Snocross Series to Salamanca. This year’s event is scheduled to take place Feb. 16 to 18.

By Kellen M. Quigley

For the fi rst time since its inaugural event, the AMSOIL Championship Snocross snowmobile event at the Seneca Allegany Resort and Hotel will take place in the east parking lot.

“It works great for spectators because there is a large hill to stand on in addition to all the bleachers,” said ISOC Racing spokesperson Gene Shaw. “Viewing is better and another thing that is better is the proximity to everything.”

As many as 15,000 people are expected to visit Salamanca during the weekend of Feb. 16-18 for the championship series’ sixth annual visit.

With that many potential vehicles and the east lot occupied by the races, space will be limited — but offi cials said there are other places attendees can park.

“Parking, as always, is available in our parking garage, which fi lls up fast, and our gravel lot as you enter the casino where the event was last year,” said casino spokesperson Nadine DiStefano.

DiStefano said additional parking will be available off property at the Seneca Nation Administration Building and Seneca

Nation Health Center.

Shuttles will also be available if parking off site.

The stop in Salamanca is the farthest east for the national touring series and is the fi fth of eight stops during the 2017-18 season.

The fi rst four events have been successes, according to Shaw, with good weather playing a big role. He said recent weather was cold enough this year to make the snow early at the casino, meaning they are ready to go.

“We have had cold weather and a lot of snow, so people have been able to enjoy snowmobiling,” he said. “We hope that continues through the rest of the winter.”

The casino’s preparations for this year began almost immediately after the previous season’s event, with room bookings starting about a year out.

DiStefano said recent preparations have gone smoothly, including the snow making, which starts about a month before the event.

“Weather for the most part has been very good this year,” DiStefano said. “One small warm up created an issue for the snow makers but other than that it was good.”

By moving the event

back to the east parking lot, Shaw said the proximity of everything will be a highlight for the spectators, putting them right in front of the action.

“The event center is really close, and people can warm up throughout the day,” he said. “We are excited about the new location and think people are really going to enjoy it.”

“We have many vendors in the Events Center, we also have large screen TVs that the guests can view Snocross even if they don’t want to venture outside,” DiStefano said. “We also show it on the television in our two guest bars.”

DiStefano said last year’s event had an attendance of nearly 15,000 people, but as many as 18,000 were in attendance in previous years. She said the event brings many new and returning guests to the casino, with the hotel and restaurants becoming busy throughout the event.

Shaw said ISOC is thankful to all the parties involved in the event, especially the casino. He said the casino has been a great partner in full support of it from the beginning and hopes to make the event better every year.

“It’s going to be a great event with all the best snowmobile riders in the world being there. There is going to be nonstop action,” Shaw added. “I hope people come out to the event this year even if they have or haven’t come out in the past. It is going to be great and a lot of fun for the whole family.”

For guests are looking to purchase tickets for this year’s event, they can go to The Logo Shop inside Seneca Allegany Casino or purchase online at snocross.com.

Celebrate the Season: Valentine’s Day Treats

By Mary Heyl

Nothing says “I love you” like the gift of your time! Make or bake a little something special for all the sweeties in your life: your friends and loved ones will love that you thought of them, and you’ll have fun making these easy treats. These DIY projects are fun to do on your own, but you can also include the kids, especially if you’re making treats for the class.

Kelly Ward’s Chocolate Marshmallow Cutouts are rich and fudgy, and you can even freeze the dough ahead of time if you plan to bake on a school night. To get started, in a large bowl, cream 1 ¼ cups of softened butter and 2 cups of sugar until light and fl uffy. Beat in 2 large eggs and 2 teaspoons of vanilla.

In another bowl, whisk 2 cups of all-purpose fl our, ¾ cup of baking cocoa, 1 teaspoon of baking soda and ½ teaspoon of salt; gradually beat into creamed mixture. Cover and refrigerate for about an hour or until the dough is fi rm enough to shape.

Next, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Shape level tablespoons of dough into balls and place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes or until cookies are set. Using a 1¼ inch heart-shaped cookie cutter, score the center of half of the cookies.

Cool completely on pans on wire racks. Using the

same cutter, gently cut the scored cookies and remove the center of each. Spread marshmallow cream over the uncut cookies and cover with the cut cookies (makes 2 dozen).

While Valentine’s Day is an especially romantic day for some, for others it’s one of the last holidays of winter—in Western New York, that’s really cause for celebration! Share the love (of spring!) with a Valentine’s seed starter: all you need is a mini mason jar, potting soil, seeds and a few decorative touches.

To get started, free-hand or use a small stencil to paint some designs on the outside of the jar (glass paint, available at craft stores, works best). Allow to dry completely. Next, cover the bottom of the jar

with some small pebbles or even coffee beans, which creates the drainage needed for the seeds when they are watered. Next, add potting soil to the jar, leaving enough room for the seeds and the soil coverage they require (check the package for details about how many seeds to use, how deep to plant and how much soil to cover them).

Add some water to the jar to get the seeds started.

Get creative and use ribbon and cardstock to make a personalized card/ tag for the jar, including watering instructions for the recipient. If you’re transporting the jar somewhere, be sure to put a lid on it, but tell the recipient to remove it as soon as possible to prevent mold growth.

If you have a few bags of candy and fi ve minutes, then you have time to make these easy DIY Valentine’s poppers. Cut a toilet paper or paper towel tube in half.

Fill both halves with candy, confetti, crinkle paper, mini erasers and more. Cut a length of wrapping paper to go around the tube, with about 2 inches of excess paper on each side. Fit the halves back together and tape the edge of the wrapping paper to each half. Tie curling ribbon around each end and trim the uneven paper edges.

“Crack” the popper in the middle at the seam to reveal the treats!

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT

Feel Good, Be Confident with Ava Grace Fashions

By Deb Everts

Style-conscious women who want to feel confi dent and good about themselves have someone to seek advice from in Ellicottville.

Jessica Maynard-Gilbert, founder and CEO of Ava Grace Fashions, says she has been in the business of helping people feel really good about themselves for about the last 17 years.

Gilbert gained much of her experience in the retail clothing industry when she worked as a store manager at Nouriche, a women’s clothing store formerly located on Washington Street, for nearly three years. While managing Nouriche, she was inspired to open her own retail clothing business.

When Nouriche closed its doors in 2015, Gilbert decided to launch an online boutique at avagracefashions.com.

With the knowledge she gained at Nouriche, she was successful, but she missed interacting with the customers. In September 2015, she had the opportunity to open Ava Grace Fashions at its current retail location.

“The question I’m asked the most is why did I call my business Ava Grace,” she said. “If my son, Samuel, had been born a

girl, his name would have been Ava Grace. So when I decided to open my own boutique, I decided to name it Ava Grace Fashions.”

Gilbert’s business primarily sells women’s wear including dresses, tops, leggings and lingerie, along with jewelry, bags and shoes to accessorize. She tries to accommodate all sizes and carries a wide range from XS to 3X. The shop also carries basic men’s essentials and uniquely designed home products.

Whenever possible, Gilbert uses the products of local artisans. She carries a beauty line created by a woman in Buffalo and manufactured there. She sells a line of candles and beauty products made by another woman in Conewango Valley.

“My store has some eco-friendly clothing and there are also ‘Made in the U.S.A.’ items,” she said.

“When I do have something imported, I try to fi nd a local artist or a local distributor to fi ll that order. A lot of my jewelry may be imported, but the distributors are from Jamestown and Buffalo.

That’s a way for me to fi ll in with affordable items that are unique and fun.”

Gilbert is a problem solver and makes shopping and style easy with videos

on the store’s Facebook page. Each week, she tries to do a “how it fi ts” video where she shows women how new arrivals in clothing look on her and fi t. Customers have the opportunity to watch, comment and ask advice.

“One of the things women struggle with most is style of clothing and not knowing what to do with it, so I like to give tips and tricks in my videos,” she said. “The other thing they struggle with is the fi t.”

When Gilbert posts her “new week, new arrival” video on Facebook every Monday, she talks about new store merchandise and gives people suggestions on how to wear them together.

She also suggests what outfi ts people might wear for various holidays and occasions.

According to Gilbert, the idea behind her style videos is to not only showcase her products and let everybody know what’s new, but to also make her customers feel more comfortable and confi dent shopping online.

In addition, she has fewer returns because shoppers already have an idea what the fabric feels like and they know how it will fi t.

When Gilbert started in the beauty industry more than 10 years ago, she did

home parties for a jewelry company called Premiere Designs. She has been working with Premiere Designs for over nine years and carries their products in her store.

“Ava Grace Fashions is a continuation of my commitment to give people confi dence and make them feel good about themselves,” she said.

“When you can help people feel good about what’s on the outside, there comes this

transformation on the inside, and they feel more confi dent showing who they are.”

Gilbert lives in Ellicottville with her husband, Bill, and son, Samuel, who is a senior in high school. She is very ingrained in the community and is active in the Village as a member of the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce, as well as the Stroll the Streets and Girls’ Get-Away Weekend committees.

Ava Grace Fashions is located upstairs in the Ellicottville Inn at 10 Washington Street. The boutique is open Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and is closed Tuesday.

“Wedding showers are one of our favorite things to do—they are usually so creative and girly with tons of pink!” said Coe, who offers dessert displays and cupcakes for both the wedding day and the shower. According to her, mini cupcakes are a huge hit this year for bridal showers, but she’s also made cake pops—one of her favorite treats to make!

The wedding cake (or dessert station) is the perfect opportunity to treat your guests, but also incorporate your own personal style and taste into one of the most memorable parts of the day. Dina DiPasquale of Dina’s at the ‘Mont caters weddings at HoliMont, where she loves to make the couple’s wedding cake a perfect expression of their personality and vision for the wedding. From tiered cakes to cupcakes to pies to cookies, DiPasquale understands that no two weddings are the same, and neither are the desserts.

This year’s trends include a simpler, more classic cake with buttercream frosting and simple fl oral or fruit accents, especially fi gs, which are the “it” fruit this wedding season.

Of course, there are many factors to consider when selecting a dessert for the big day. From the number of guests to food allergies or preferences to the time of year, there are lots of dessert options to make it a memorable day for both the bride and groom and their guests.

For 2018 it seems, the less traditional, the better!
