October is Breast Upcoming Events Cancer Awareness Springville Month Area

“One out of eight” is a startling statistic for any medical condition. And when that condition is breast cancer, medical professionals and patients focus on one theme: early detection.

National Breast Cancer Awareness Month takes place each October. Bertrand Chaffee Hospital works with local primary care providers and gynecologists to make sure that women are following up-to-date guidelines for regular screenings, including mammograms. “Treatment for breast cancer is more effective at early stages, and treatment options increase with earlier diagnoses,” said Imaging Department Manager Lisa Smith. “All women should perform a self-examination each month to feel for lumps, thickenings or hardened areas, and women over the age of 40 should schedule a mammogram each year or as recommended by their healthcare provider.”

To raise awareness during this month-long campaign, Bertrand Chaffee Hospital and Jennie B. Richmond Nursing Home employees will be wearing pink on Oct. 5. “Breast cancer and cancer in general have affected so many families in our community,” said Kara Kane, community relations coordinator.

“Our facility recognizes that, and we have included funding to upgrade our imaging technologies in a recent state grant application. News on that should be available by the end of the year.”

Bertrand Chaffee Hospital is a Pink Ribbon Facility™ and offers digital mammography with convenient evening hours.

Saving Lives with Early Detection

The Concord Public Library was initially formed in 1878 when General John B. Wadsworth left $250 to the Village of Springville. The village used the money to start a public library.

The small library was started in the back of Walter Blakeley’s book store, located in what is now Lulu Belle’s.

Around the time in 1879, the Gaylord family built an Opera House on Main Street, directly across from today’s Rite Aid. The Gaylord Opera House was lauded as the biggest Opera House in Erie County, with seating for 1,500. Very little was ever mentioned of the Gaylord Opera House in the local papers. The assumption See Concord Library page 2

is it operated for a brief time.

On the 1886 Sanborn Map, the building was labeled “Skating Rink.” What we know is the leaders of the school and town took advantage of a great opportunity.

The Griffith Institute and the Springville Public Library merged collections in 1880. Blakeley remained as the librarian until 1902.

In 1902, the school hired Lucy Bentley to be the librarian for both the school and the public library. She received a yearly salary of $175. In 1927, the Universalist Church gave their church building to the town for use as a library. The church, built in 1897, served the congregation until 1924, when the church folded. In a 1967 article, Bentley recalled the day they moved to new the library from the schoolhouse.

“In 1928, we moved all of the books from the schoolhouse to the new library. The children were let out of school to help me move all the books. What a wonderful day that was.“ From other reports, we learned that students lined up from the old academy and schoolhouse library to the new library on Buffalo Street. It was a book brigade of students handing off books to each other and Miss

Lucy organizing them in the library.

Bentley remained as school librarian and public librarian until 1941, when she severed ties with the school.

Bentley retired in 1962 from the Concord Public Library.

Several librarians were at the helm of the Concord Public Library until Annette Gernatt took over the job in 1982.

In the late 1980s and the early 1990s, it was evident that a new library was needed.

With the passing of long-time Springville doctor Lynden Hulbert, the funds were available to build the new Hulbert Library.

Originally the plans were to use the Hulbert house on Edgewood

Drive as the new library. The location wasn’t considered adequate for the library and it was decided the proceeds of the sale of the house would go to the building of the new library on Chapel Street, just off Fiddler’s Green Park.

In 1994, the library moved to the new facility without the fanfare and fun of moving into the old library on Buffalo Street. Gernatt retired in 2013 and Bridgette Heintz has been serving as the Town of Concord Librarian since then.

General Wadsworth’s gift led to today’s library. In 2015, the library had a circulation of 67, 272 books and materials, and over 44, 356 patron visits.

Outdoor Adventure Grouse Hunting Season Begins Oct. 1 in NY

By Indrek Kongat s

On Oct. 1, ruffed grouse hunting season opens in most of New York State, including here in Cattaraugus and Erie counties. Personally it is my favorite of all the upland game bird species, dating back to my childhood when my grandfather took me out on our 100-acre farm. Grouse were plentiful back then. It’s a wonder I didn’t die of fright each time a bird flushed!

With such a thunderous and unexpected sudden roar, I swear it’s enough to make you wet your pants. Maybe that early introduction to grouse hunting is the reason I can’t enjoy scary movies to this day, oh the horror!

Since my grandfather’s passing, I have enjoyed grouse hunting with numerous hunting partners, including Dennis Walrod of nearby Lakewood, NY. Dennis is the author of the Grouse Hunter’s Guide, a book he published back in 1985, still in print and available on Amazon.com. Dennis and I first met about 16 years ago at, of all places, a fly fishing show at the Chautauqua Institute.

We had booths across from one another; I was booking Arctic Fishing Excursions and he was promoting his grouse book. After staring at each other all day, we started asking each other questions about our specialties and found that we both had more grouse hunting in common than fishing.

One thing lead to another and I invited Dennis out hunting in my neck of the woods on the state land along the Zoar Valley. I’m not an exceptionally talented grouse hunter, but I do run across one every once in a while. Cleverly, I thought I could get Dennis to evaluate my turf and show me a thing or two. Unfortunately, there wasn’t much to show since we didn’t hear or see a single bird. What I did learn was that the habitat that we were hunting was excellent.

That’s what I was hoping for.

With good habitat, your odds improve tenfold.

One of the things that Dennis told me was that at one time Western New York was void of trees. When we look out the window today, we see rolling hills covered in deciduous and coniferous forests, not so

120 years ago these same hills where mostly covered in fields of grass and shrub. As the new forests started growing, so did the habitat for the grouse.

Grouse flourished for a good while until the forests began to mature. Grouse hunting has been on the decline for the past 25 years because of this very fact, but that’s not the only reason—predation, encroachment are among others.

Grouse feed on buds and wild fruit from all sorts of trees and shrubs, which are very vital to the health and wealth of the grouse population. New growth close to the ground also offers easy feeding and shelter.

Mixed forests have deciduous trees that offer an abundance of food, and evergreens offer shelter and protection against inclement winter storms.

An ideal plant is the cranberry bush viburnum. This plant has a twofold benefit for the grouse. One, the red berries are an important food source and once covered with snow, the heavily laden branches droop to the ground and create a sort of igloo for the birds.

One could call it a dive-in restaurant.

According to Dennis, once the hunter has discovered the right mix of habitat that also holds birds, he has discovered what is called a covert. From his book he writes, “A covert is a possession of mind, of memories, a special place where the hunter walks,

knowing that at any instant a ruffed grouse can shatter tranquility and thereby stake claim to a share of that ownership.” A hunter stakes his claim to each and every covert much like a gold miner chasing El Dorado. Whether he shares his good fortune with just his most trusted hunting companion, his dog or feels generous and shares it with another hunter, it’s a place of memories.

Hunting grouse isn’t easy and according to DEC statistics, a hunter will flush one bird for every hour of hunting and after 15 flushes, will bag one bird—not very high odds. The odds are even worse if you don’t hunt with a dog. Dogs are invaluable to the grouse hunter. They can go as Captain Kirk would say, “to boldly go where no man has ever gone before.” Depending on breed, dogs will either point or flush a bird that the hunter had no inkling was even there, giving the hunter, more than the bird, a fighting chance.

Cover is the grouse’s greatest ally and for that reason, few flushes offer clean shots. Your odds improve dramatically once the leaves have fallen at the end of October, but that presents another dilemma— turkey season has started!

I personally would like to thank Dennis Walrod for giving me permission to share his thoughts and ideas and to quote from his great book.

SGI Cross Country: Racing to the Finish

By Alicia Dziak

Led by coach Chad Russell and assistant coach Steven Dillsworth, both teachers in the district, SGI’s Varsity cross country team is made up of 15 girls and 16 boys, ranging from 7th to 12th grades.

“My goals for the season as a coach are to make an environment for the students that they are comfortable in and that they want to come to practice,” said Russell. He added that he also hopes “that they can enjoy success and failures together with other peers that genuinely care about each other’s progress.”

Russell also hopes the team will win the division this year.

The team gets to compete on various area courses, with home base being Sprague Brook Park. “The favorite course is the course of the Boston Mud Run during the summer, ‘cause its muddy and the teammates take lots of pictures,” said Russell.

The cross country team trains hard, logging many miles each week. “The stronger Varsity athletes run 25-35 miles a week,” Russell explained. “Some athletes have progressed their training to the upper ends, 40-50 miles.”

This dedication pays off. “Elle Russell has been a rock for the Experience the team for years and she finished 31st in the state last year,” Russell Emerling Difference! noted. “Sonya Krezmien, Samantha Fruehauf, Morgan Lukert and Gwen Fruehauf are doing most of the heavy work for this season. But the real strength is the pack of girls behind them that constantly push the top 5 to continue to work if they wish to keep their place on the team.”

SELECT VEHICLES On the boys side, Russell said, “The guys have had a few leaders so far in this season. Nick Abdo, and Kurt Uschold have been the upperclassmen strength of the team. Brett Russell and Nathan Myers have come in first in different races for the Griffs.

Zack Peterman, along with Nate and Brett, make a nice pack of 9th and 10th graders who look really promising for a solid team for a few years to come.”

The team next competes in an invitational on Saturday, Oct. 1, and at home against Eden on Oct. 4.

An Interview With No. 24

By T. J. Oakley

Where do adults learn their work ethic from?

How is i t that some people can be prompt and prepared, while others struggle to beat red lights and ignore crosswalks in a last ditch effort to arrive on time at their employer? I have always wondered where the drive to succeed and dedication to a craft comes from. While beginning to speak with a standout performer on the Springville Griffins Varsity football team, I gained great insight into an array of ways good people are assisting our youth, as they transition into adulthood.

I had a brief discussion with senior Ian Baker, No. 24 FB/LB on the Griffins, in which he detailed a schedule as arduous and regimented as most adults. As a high school student, Baker still wakes with the rising sun and heads to the land of memories, as SGI opens shortly after 7 a.m. After working hard on his education, ensuring he is prepared for college, Baker heads to the gridiron to hone his pigskin skills. Practice for the hard-working Griffin players and coaches typically runs from 3 to 4:30 p.m.

This nearly 10-hour day can’t be over until the homework is done.

I asked if he enjoys the free time after the football season ends, and he says, “Actually I wrestle, and play baseball for the school, too.”

Baker has been playing football in Springville from the start when he was 8 years old, way back in 2007. Earlier this season, he was able to surpass his uncle, Tony Baker, to now be second on the Springville All-Time Rushing List. After this, his final season in Springville, Baker intends to go onto playing collegiate football.

Baker noted, “I‘m looking at Baldwin Wallace University and Allegheny College as my top choices so far.” While in college, he plans to major in criminal justice or psychology. Baker surely will be successful as he finishes high school and embarks on his college education.

I asked Baker what benefits he has gained from dedicating so much time and hard work to football and he couldn’t say enough about the positive aspects with relation to life in general. He stated, “The benefits I’ve gained by playing football are endless.

I’ve learned how to work with a team, not as an individual. Also, I learned how to be coachable, because that is honestly a key component to being a good football player, or athlete in general.”

Teamwork includes responsibility, accountability, and reliability.

Baker has taken advantage of some extra athletic training at Performance Sports, LLC, located in Amherst, NY. Although there are great results with the professional training, it’s obvious that Baker’s strength primarily comes from the incredible support his family provides. His uncle Bill Baker is a former s physical education teacher at SGI High School, whose daughter p Jordan Baker was a top Basketball and Volleyball player for the J school until graduating in 2000. The aforementioned Tony Baker s continued playing football in college, and worked hard enough to c be b drafted by the NY Giants. Baker’s mother, Kelly, is active in the th community and gives her son a great example of the virtues to be b found in civic service.

The Baker family is another great example of a local family that tth has a long history in this town, and are part of what makes our o community great. It’s clear that Ian’s parents, Kelly and John Baker, are doing a tremendous job with raising a responsible B youth that they should be incredibly proud of! y With Baker as an example, I would have to say that no one thing can c guarantee our children’s future. Work ethic and dedication is a learned skill and it takes continuous maintenance to ensure its’ presence.

The commitment of Baker’s parents, and dedication p o the professionals coaching our kids is paramount in leading of Springville’s S children down the right path. Football and other team tte sports help our kids learn to work together as one cohesive unit. u Football has played a big part in Baker’s life, and my impression is i that he is going to be very successful in his future endeavours.

In I a time where our media seemingly wants to force individuality and a difference even if it is not there, hallmarks like football are pivotal in teaching our youth that the strength in America is within p our o commonalities.

SGI Spirit Week Fun

By Ashlee O akley

In the week leading up to SGI’s Varsity Griffin’s homecoming football game against Jamestown, on Friday, Sept. 30, the entire district gets into purple and gold spirit! Fun days are planned, the school is decorated in school colors, and there is a celebratory atmosphere in the air.

At Springville Elementary and Middle schools, the children have the option of dressing in camouflage, wearing crazy socks, adorning themselves head-to-toe in neon, wearing their favorite team jerseys, and dressing in class colors to promote unity through the future graduating classes. Last but certainly not least, Friday all students are encouraged to go all-out with the purple and gold, and show school spirit, as well as show support and solidarity for ALL of the Springville Griffins sports teams, past, present, and future.

There is also a PTA fundraiser at SES, selling the newest school t-shirts, of

which there are two to choose from (for more information, go to SES PTA’s Facebook page, or ask at the main office for a flyer).

Springville Griffith-Institute high school does a bit more, as their school’s football team— kids they go to class with, are friends with, and whose families they know— are literally coming home to their football field under the Friday night lights at Pop Warner Field. They decorate the halls amazingly, as well as themselves, all week long.

Monday was camouflage/ country day, and Tuesday is decades day (much to the amusement, and some dismay of the parents whose clothes are being borrowed for decades day). Wednesday is favorite jersey day, and Thursday is class-color day, unifying each grade with freshmen in grey, sophomores sporting green, juniors wearing blue, and the seniors going all out in pink.

All of the grades compete against each other to see who can have the most color! And of course, on Friday, gold and purple reign supreme, as the students of SGI get pumped up for a pep rally at the end of

their school day.

After school, the homecoming parade starts at 5:30 p.m., with many Griffin sports teams, band members, community organizations, and the homecoming cars being featured. The Varsity homecoming game starts promptly after the Pop Warner induction ceremony at 7 p.m., with Sp!ringville going up against the 0-5 Jamestown Red Raiders. Go Griffs, “Let Purple Reign” On Saturday, Springville Elementary School is holding a Color Run fundraiser, with on-site registration starting at 9 a.m. That evening, the SGI high schoolers may dress in their fanciest dress, and head to the homecoming dance, starting at 7 p.m. Tickets are $8 presale, and $10 at the door. All students that attend the school and do not have any outstanding disciplinary issues are welcomed to join their peers and support the school at this special event and school fundraiser. After the homecoming dance, Springville’s Spirit Week will have ended, but the support and enthusiasm the community gives will be with the Griffins year-round!

Coaches’ Corner

Boys Varsity Soccer, coach Tom Szczerbacki The SGI Boys varsity soccer team played a great week of soccer netting their ďŹ rst win vs.

Pioneer 6-2. Alec Harrigan had 3 goals. The boys backed up that game with a strong outing, playing Eden to a 1-1 tie. Alec Harrigan scored late off the assist from Michael Kriezman to send it to OT. The boys added a 4-0 win against Global Concepts.

They ďŹ nished off the week with a strong performance against Alden, despite a 2-1 OT loss.

Anthony Smith scored the lone goal off a great ball from Maxx Solly.

The boys are starting to play good soccer at the right time. These boys work hard and it’s nice to see it start to pay off—they are expected to ďŹ nish the season at a high level, competing hard every time they step on the ďŹ eld.

Girls Varsity Soccer, coach Eric Holler Varsity girls soccer defeated Alden in a division matchup 4-2. Goals were scored Jena Schelble, Jocelyn Jenis, Grace Zabawa and Jenasis Fisher. Jena Schelble also provided an assist. Carrie Dickinson played well in net for the Lady Griffs. Their record is overall 6-2, division 5-1.

Varsity Cross Country, coach Chad Russell, assistant coach Steven Dillsworth The guys cross country team defeated tonawanda by a score of 20-50. Nick Abdo and Kurt Uschold lead the way for the Griffs. Brett Russell, Zack Peterman and Nathan Myers ran very well to seal the win. For the girls team Sonya Krezmein and Elle Russell ďŹ nished out in front, followed

by Samantha Fruehauf, Gwen Fruehauf and Morgan Lukert. The girls team remains undefeated in league play and won by the score of 18-50. The girls are two races away from a division-winning season.

Girls JV Volleyball, coach Robert Gainey The JV girls volleyball team dropped a tough league match on Thursday night to Eden 3-0.

The girls played Eden tight the ďŹ rst game only being down 20-19 but collapsed late in the game.

Despite the result the girls played tough, including strong performances from Sara Ehlers, Emily Ehlers, Morgan Christ, and Abby Stressinger.

The JV girls volleyball team traveled to Lackawanna on Monday night and won convincingly by a score of 3-0. The girls dominated the ďŹ rst game thanks in large part to the sisters Sara and Emily Ehlers. The second game was a bit closer but strong play from Ivette Lewandowski and Abby Stressinger. The girls completed the sweep behind steady play from Vaidah Emerling and Morgan Christ.

The girls hosted Ellicottville on Tuesday night and came away with a dramatic 2-1 win. The girls played their best game of the year in game one consistently passing the ball to their setter and ďŹ nishing plays to win 25-11. The girls came out at and made too many mistakes in the second game as they fell 26-24. Despite the tough loss the girls rallied and pulled out the third game 2522. Strong performances on the night included: Sara Ehlers, Emily Ehlers, Morgan Christ, Abby Stressinger, Ivette Lewandowski, and Alyssa Hunter. The girls have the rest of the week off and return to action next week Girls ModiďŹ ed Soccer, coach Alicia Dziak The girls defeated Lake Shore 2-1 on Saturday. Shelby Stisser and Shay Ellis scored the goals, and Dru Robinson added an assist. Great offensive efforts were also put in by Jackie Roggie and Brooke Walker. Caitlyn Hazen, Kiley Nolan and Mabel Robinson helped control the play at midďŹ eld, while Ava Dziak, Logan Lukert and Madalynn Schwanekamp played strong on D. Sarah O’Neal earned the win in goal, after a nerve-racking missed penalty shot.

On Tuesday, the girls faced Eden, and came away with a 2-2 tie. Regulation time ended with 1-1 on the scoreboard, with Dru Robinson scoring the only goal for SGI. In OT, SGI struck ďŹ rst with a goal from Dru Robinson, assisted by Ava Dziak. Eden came back to tie it with a goal late in the second OT period. Best-yet playing by all the girls, especially Arial Link, Shelby Smith, Shelby Stisser and Jackie Roggie. Logan Lukert played a great game in the net.

When Shannon Rosenswie first opened Springville Eye Care in 2006, she had opted to stop working for practices in both Buffalo, and then Olean, and start working for herself.

A graduate Pioneer Central, Rosenswie got her undergraduate degree at the University of Buffalo, and then went forward to Philadelphia’s Pennsylvania College for Optometry, receiving her Optometric Degree. Rosenswie recalls that, “They even warned us in school: there will be people that will feel that you [as a woman] can’t fulfill the role of the doctor.”

She says, “When I first started, actually…I had a couple patients that did not want to see me. I was in groups with male doctors, and they would request the male doctor. I don’t have that here, and I don’t think that’s so much the case anymore,” but she was not having it, and opened up her own, nearly instantly successful, business in Springville, a decade ago.

Although the business started out with just Rosenswie and Kelly Sanders, New York State Licensed Optician, as well as another female employee, having their newest optician, Steve Cronk, join them four years ago, opened up their variety of staff members who may relate to certain customers better than others.

Besides Sanders, Cronk is also a New York State Licensed Optician, which Rosenswie explains is distinctive, as some states don’t require their opticians to be licensed. She and her staff go through professional development, as well as needing to keep up with their licensure requirements every three years.

Rosenswie, on what she believes makes her business unique to others like it: “I think it really is the personal service, and family atmosphere. I think Walmart has great doctors, but you may not always see the same doctor, and when you come here, it’s the same people.”

She says that her favorite part is getting to see how everyone relates to one another in the community, and how everyone is connected in this small town. “We all love that since we’ve been here, now 10 years— we see some of these kids who were in middle school when we first started, who are now in college, or even married. We’ve seen them through all of these stages of their life, which is really awesome.”

Rosenswie discusses the perception the public has of optometry, versus what they are actually able to provide as a primary eye care physician— the services they offer may surprise you. She explains, “We specialize in primary eye care, so we are sort of the gatekeepers for any issues that may arise. If a patient needs more attention, as far as eyecare goes, we refer them over to ophthalmology— which is nearly the same practice, but they do the surgeries. But really, we can do everything from the basic eye exam, all the way to glaucoma and diabetic evaluations, cataract evaluations, as well as treating pinkeye and other eye diseases.

Many things going on in the body can present themselves in the eyes. Sometimes, we may be the first person to see a patient who has signs of diabetic changes, lupus, or rheumatoid arthritis— they may have an inflammatory reaction in their eyes, and we’re treating it.”

If test results come back and they suggest issues with other body systems, they can refer you to a rheumatologist or endocrinologist easily. “Optometry has changed— we’re getting more healthbased. Many people say they have never had the comprehensive exam and are used to the ‘Better 1/Better 2’ exam, so I think that it’s our job to teach those patients that there is more to our exams now than just reading the eye charts.” She states that insurances are putting pressure on optometrists to do full health evaluations, instead of the older, basic eye exam. They often do basic and comprehensive exams, full health evaluations, and checking eye pressure for different eye diseases and deterioration. They also have on-call emergency services for anyone that needs them, not just for patients of Springville Eye Care.

In her spare time, Rosenswie enjoys her life in Springville with her husband Michael and three daughters. She donates her time to be on the Board of Directors at The Children’s League, is a member of Springville’s Cordelian Club, and is an inactive member of the Bertrand Chaffee Hospital’s Women’s Association.

She gives to many charities throughout the year for basket raffles and auctions, and does her utmost to help the community thrive.

She smiles, “We are so grateful people still come to us, and return, and send new patients to us.”

Early Detection Saves Lives

“One out of eight” is a startling statistic for any medical condition. And when that condition is breast cancer, medical professionals and patients focus on one theme: early detection.

National Breast Cancer Awareness Month takes place each October. Bertrand Chaffee Hospital works with local primary care providers

and gynecologists to make sure that women are following up-to-date guidelines for regular screenings, including mammograms. “Treatment for breast cancer is more effective at early stages, and treatment options increase with earlier diagnoses,” said Imaging Department Manager Lisa Smith. “All women should

perform a self-examination each month to feel for lumps, thickenings or hardened areas, and women over the age of 40 should schedule a mammogram each year or as recommended by their healthcare provider.”

To raise awareness during this month-long campaign, Bertrand Chaffee Hospital and Jennie B. Richmond

Dineen did move the driveway to be within 10 feet from his property line, and submitted a revised site plan since the last meeting.

Although the normal next step for the Town of Ellicottville Planning Board would be to make a resolution to approve the special use permit without conditions, because there was not a quorum of board members, the board could not take any action. The project application was put back on the agenda for the October 2016 meeting.

Town Planner Gary Palumbo talked to the board about the Comprehensive Plan update, speaking in general terms to

identify areas of the plan that needed to be reworked or updated. He stressed that this is not intended to be a complete re-write. Input from the board will be required to identify topics, chapter by chapter, that need to be revised, deleted or added. “The 1990 comprehensive plan was substantially rewritten in 2006, and then amended in 2009, 2011 and 2012.

The intent of this update is to keep up with local development trends, new social and environmental concerns, and to incorporate the newest (applicable) management strategies,� as stated in a memo from Palumbo to the Town of Ellicottville dated Sept. 14, 2016.

Palumbo’s memo went on to outline methodology

and procedure, as discussed with Town Supervisor Matt McAndrew, Town Engineer Mark Alainello, and Town Planning Board members.

A complete draft of the Comprehensive Plan Update could be done in as soon as 12 months, according to Palumbo, and could include two or three public meetings/hearings.

Palumbo will email a copy of the draft work plan memo to all members of the Planning Board. He asked that any comments be emailed back to McAndrew before the October meeting.

Eagles and Sabers Clash at Crowley Field

By Stephanie Timblin

In an exciting, back-andforth offensive showdown, the Ellicottville Eagles Midgets team improved to 5-1 on the season, in a 52-39 victory over the previously undefeated Salamanca Sabers on Saturday, Sept. 24.

“The team has been working hard and the leaders had everyone focused for the game. After a fumble on out first play the Sabers were able to drive down and score. The

Boys modified soccer

boys didn’t panic and stayed with the game plan. All six running backs from the first string scored touchdowns.

The offensive line played their best game yet, led by Harrison Newark,” said head coach Tim Grinols.

Touchdowns were scored

by Leif Jimerson, Clayton Rowland, Logan Grinols, Lucas Marsh, Ryan DeKay, and Christian Swalcy.

The Pee Wee Eagles were unable to overcome a well-

balanced Sabers team, and fell to 4-2 on the season in a tough 20-12 loss. “Unfortunately a couple turnovers and several penalties were too much to overcome for our team,” said head hoach Mark Chudy.

Both touchdowns were scored by Owen Chudy.

The Eagles will face the Randolph Raiders in the final regular season game of the year at Ellicottville Central School on Sunday, Oct. 2 with a 1:30 p.m. kickoff.

F/E Titans Win a Thriller Over Randolph Cardinals

By Stephanie Timblin

In a Friday Night Lights Thriller, the FranklinvilleEllicottville Titans beat the Randolph Cardinals in a tight 37-36 victory.

With only two minutes left in the back and forth battle, Griffin Chudy scored on a 48yard touchdown pass, followed by a Brock Blecha extra point to take the lead for the Titan’s victory. Earlier in the game, two exciting plays from Austin Grinols who returned a 100yard kickoff, and a 96-yard touchdown run from teammate Blecha helped secure the W. “This was a great win for our team as we battled a tough opponent on the road. There are things that we can get better at and will continue to improve, but this was an

important win for the season going forward,” said Head Coach Chad Bartoszek.

On Friday, September 30, the Titans take on the No. 1 team in

New York State, Maple Grove, at 7 p.m. in Ellicottville. ECS will be hosting homecoming activities on the field at half time of the game.

The sight of the season bringing the leaves to full color throughout the valley is something to behold. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a weekend that a family can enjoy together for very little expense. There is no charge to come down and walk the vendors or hear much of the music. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a truly great place to be.â&#x20AC;?

With so much going on during Fall Festival, be sure to plan ahead. Grab your free copy of next weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ellicottville Times to see the complete schedule of events.

EVGV Trail Progresses

Town Board Addresses Festival Security

By Dave Dahl

A planned 15-mile bicycling and hiking trail has taken a step forward in the Town of Ellicottville.

Wood cutting for the Ellicottville - Great Valley Trailâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entrance in the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s center began Friday.

Supervisor Matthew McAndrew expressed optimism about the trail. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another safe source to get to destinations,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Town Board members agreed to contribute $10,000 for a portion of the trailâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s engineering costs last week.

The funding will come from the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s $100,000 cultural and recreation account.

Trail committee members have raised $9,000 and plan to seek more donations, McAndrew said. He does not expect the town government to contribute again. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Future costs will be funded by donations,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s donation will cover the trailâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s engineering costs for the section from the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s center to the Tim Hortonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s CafĂŠ and Bake Shop on Route 219.

Planned to run through Great Valley and Ellicottville, the trail will guide bicyclists and hikers to places such as Pumpkinville, Holiday Valleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tubing park and Ellicottville Central School. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There will be a map with points of interest at the entrance,â&#x20AC;? McAndrew said.

With a width varying from 8 to 10 feet In different sections, the trailâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surface will probably be made of a hard-packed stone base from Tim Hortonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s center, McAndrew said.

In other sections, it could be paved.

Before surfacing the trail, town ofďŹ cials and trail committee members must receive permits from the Army Corps of Engineers and the state Department of Environmental Conservation.

In another matter, McAndrew announced the

Four Flushers, a group of town and Village of Ellicottville ofďŹ cials that meets monthly to discuss water and sewer issues, talked about the need to replace a water operator and sewer operator who left the village government.

The supervisor could not reveal any further details. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the process of ďŹ lling those positions,â&#x20AC;? he said.

McAndrew also told the board he must choose from among four companies to insure vehicles, buildings and employees. The townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s insurance coverage will expire Sept. 30.

He plans to select a company by the monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end.

Responding to a residentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s complaint about tractor-trailers parked overnight in front of the National Fuel building on Route 242E, McAndrew announced â&#x20AC;&#x153;no parkingâ&#x20AC;? signs will be placed there. The state Department of Transportation authorized the town to erect the signs.

The neighbor voiced concerns about truck drivers sleeping there. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel comfortable about it,â&#x20AC;? McAndrew said.

Board members also heard from Jim Bouchard, deputy police ofďŹ cer in charge, about security at upcoming festivals.

Police met with town and village ofďŹ cials and Chamber of Commerce representatives to discuss how many ofďŹ cers will be needed at Fall Festival and the Christmas Stroll.

Cattaraugus County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputies will help the police at festivals on Saturdays, but not on Fridays, he said.

Corrections ofďŹ cers and state Department of Transportation employees are also available to assist.

After a board member asked him about tractor-trailer drivers who park on both sides of Route 219 in front of Tim Hortonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Bouchard replied that ofďŹ cers are aware of the problem. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We write tickets,â&#x20AC;? he said.

In the Highway Department, Highway Superintendent Thomas Scharf told the board a roof over an island at the fuel depot will cost $15,500.

In another matter, board members heard from Mark Alianello, town engineer, about a homeowner who contested her water bill.

Jennifer Kennedy, who owns a vacation home on Bella Vista Drive, questioned him about her $689 water bill for 174,400 gallons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She wrote a letter that it was impossible that she used that much,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Alianello believes a leaking toilet caused the unusually high three-month amount. He added that a home typically uses 12,000 to 15,000 gallons in that time.

Describing the situation as â&#x20AC;&#x153;not uncommonâ&#x20AC;? in the town, he said some part-time residents receive high bills because of leaking toilets or sinks when no one lives in a home for a few months. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If nobody was there the whole time, that could have happened,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Following an executive session, the board waived the late fee but insisted she pay the bill. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We feel bad about it but we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let any exception because then you get into bigger issues,â&#x20AC;? McAndrew said.

Board members also listened to Harry Weissman, assessor, who told them the town has maintained its 100 percent equalization rate for property values.

McAndrew voiced his relief that the town will not need a revaluation.

Weissman also estimated that 60 to 70 single-family homes are for sale in the town, which he considers a normal number. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are always â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;for saleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; signs everywhere,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The Town boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next meeting has been set for 6 p.m. on Oct. 19.

Add The Winery of Ellicottville’s “Berry Hard Cider” to your must haves this fall season!

With the resurgence of craft hard ciders, it was time for them to expand their product line. The Winery is run by Dominic and Linda Spicola, their daughter Beth Sheehy and her husband, Sam, featuring Dominic and Sam as the wine and now cider makers.

This exploration of a new product began with their Sparkling Apple Cider that was created in conjunction with Ellicottville Brewing Company (EBC). Throughout the process, it occurred to the owners that they needed to expand on this great recipe. For the next batch, red raspberry and blueberry were added to give the cider a naturally sweeter taste. The new “Berry Hard Cider” is sweet, light and crisp with the perfect touch of bubbly.

The initial roll out will consist of about 200 cases, and the batch will be ready for sale in the next few weeks. “We are

always trying out new ideas to keep customers happy,” Dominic says. “The next project is a Cherry Wine and a Strawberry Wine.”

On any given day, you can walk into the store and find Dominic telling stories of how he found his passion for wine, or his opinion on the newest ideas and technology in wine making.

There are wine tastings and tours all day every day with no reservation needed.

The Winery provides three types of tastings: traditional, which consists of 6 wines for $5, Chocolate Pairing for $8, and the Tour & Taste for $10.

Sheehy advises that if you have a large party, it would be helpful if you called ahead.

Should you want a tailored experience, call the winery and they will accommodate to the best of their ability.

Aside from their many wines, you can find anything and everything wine in their small boutique, such as coasters with quotes, bottle

openers, wine racks, bejeweled tank tops, decanters and wine stoppers, making it easy to find something unique for the wine lover in your life.

The winery also offers custom label wines, which Spicola says, “is a great gift for weddings, corporate events, etc.”

The Winery of Ellicottville is located at 14 Monroe Street, open Monday through Thursday, 12 – 7 p.m., Friday 12 – 9 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. – 9 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m. – 7 p.m. You can check out their website www. wineryofellicottville.com for more information, give them a call at (716) 699-1055 or find them on Facebook.

You can also order online or find them in one of 38 different liquor stores peppered throughout Western New York. On your next trip to Ellicottville, make the Winery a stop and check out their locally crafted wines, ciders and gifts.

You won’t be disappointed!

The volunteers modeled casual and dressy styles from maurices and Christopher & Banks, which had bold blasts of raspberry, mustard and teal accents on a field of black and denim. Two models from Lularoe walked the floor with some of the new arrivals at LulaRoe Patty Gertis’ VIP Boutique in Chaffee.

ALLEGANY STATE Park News Dine, Shop and Boat at ASP This October

By Alicia Dziak

The busiest season at Allegany State Park (ASP) has come and gone, but that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean the fun is over. As New York stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest state park, ASP is open year-round, with many of the amenities open through mid-November.

The Park Restaurant will remain open for the next several weeks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re planning on closing the restaurant for the season by mid-November,â&#x20AC;? said John Marino of JCon Parks, which operates the restaurants and all the retail space within the park. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a great season with the addition of the patio. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hoping to open in April next

year and build on our success from this year.â&#x20AC;?

The restaurant is located inside the Administration building, overlooking Red House Lake. If you happen to be in the park during the busy Columbus Day weekend, give yourself a break from cooking over the campďŹ re. Stop in for the Friday night ďŹ sh fry and Sunday breakfast buffet, or enjoy the daily lunch and dinner specials.

Didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get out on the water as much as youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d hoped this summer? Enjoy a last hoorah on the waters of Red House Lake by renting a watercraft. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The boathouse will stay

open through Columbus Day weekend, but if weather stays warm, will keep it open through the end of October,â&#x20AC;? noted Marino.

Of the beautiful, longlasting summer, he added,â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been our busiest season ever!

Weather has been fantastic all season and campers, and especially guests staying outside of the park, are ďŹ nding us out!â&#x20AC;? He noted that kayaks, canoes and SUPs were the most popular rentals.

Enjoy the last of the season for the park shops. While the gift shop at the Administration Building is open year-round, the Quaker gift shop will only stay open until mid-October, and both general stores will close mid-November.

As for looking ahead to winter, Marino said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hoping for lots of white stuff this year for our cross-country ski area along with all our snowmobile guests! We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to have a winter like last year!â&#x20AC;?

Come enjoy a fall weekend at the park, with 65,000 acres to explore. Get in some fall fun, and extend the summer with one ďŹ nal visit to your park favorites before they close for the season.
