Have a September to Remember in Ellicottville

By Kellen M. Quigley It’s hard to believe that summer is practically over.

It may be a new school year, but this month is full of great activities indoors and out to celebrate the changing of the seasons, but summer is not over yet!

If your adventure side is calling, answer it with a visit to Holiday Valley’s Sky High, which features the Aerial Park, the Climbing Forest and the Mountain Coaster.

Sky High will be open Friday through Sunday from Sept. 6 through Oct. 13, Oct. 14 for Columbus Day and then Saturday and Sundays from Oct. 19 through Oct. 27.

If you’re a golfer, late summer and early fall means finding time for 18 holes any chance you get. Head to Holiday Valley’s Double Black Diamond Golf Course and experience beautiful scenery on challenging terrain. For more info, visit www.holidayvalley.com.

Ellicottville Central School’s first day of school was Wednesday, Sept. 4, and the excitement of a new year awaits. Be sure to visit ellicottvillecentral.com to see all the upcoming events and see page 4 for some Ellicottville Central news.

For more golfing fun, Sept. 13 is the annual Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce Golf Outing and the opportunity to get in nine holes before the season ends. Chamber members and non-members are all invited. Golf starts with a 4 p.m. shotgun, and all skill levels are welcome to participate.

Once you’re done with the course, dinner will be served at Holiday Valley’s Main Lodge. Sign up fees

Holiday Valley’s chairlift rides signal change of seasons

By Rick Miller

Holiday Valley has started offering weekend chairlift rides — a sure sign that summer is waning.

Chairlift rides to Spruce Lake started in August, according to Holiday Valley marketing director Jane Eshbaugh.

The weekend rides are always popular, she said, showing off the surrounding hills and valley below.

They will only get more popular as the leaves begin to turn bright crimson, yellow and orange, she added. As of now, only the first few trees are showing signs of autumn.

The chairlift will run from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. The cost is $10, with ages 6 and under riding for free. Visitors should go to the Tannenbaum Lodge to get on the chairlift.

Holiday Valley photo Fall chairlift rides are a sure sign of the ending summer season.

People can take the scenic tour up to Spruce Lake every weekend this fall.

After the ride to the top of the slope, take a walk around the lake.

Adventure Bound on the Fly has kayaks and stand-up paddleboards

for rent on the lake. Those rentals should last through September, weather permitting. Then you can either walk back down or take

LIVE MUSIC

the chairlift, Esbaugh said.

On Sundays, Jonathan Clarkson will perform with his birds of prey at 3 p.m., weather permitting. His website is www. americanhawkeye. com.

The Sky High Aerial Adventure Park’s ropes courses and Sky Flyer Mountain Coaster are open weekends and this Labor Day, Eshbaugh said. The coaster is a 2,900-foot zig-zag track with waves, a jump and a corkscrew spiral. And there’s still plenty of time for golf, mountain biking and weddings and receptions as summer ticks away, she added.

Rock ‘N’ Roll in Ellicottville next weekend, September 13-15

Rock ‘N’ Roll Weekend returns to Ellicottville next weekend for three days of hot tunes and cool cars in the village.

Presented by Northtown Auto, the weekend kicks off Friday, Sept. 13 with live entertainment in all of the local hot spots. Check out Tony Holiday at Balloons Restaurant, 2 Guys Drinkin’ Beer at the Gin Mill, Route 33 at Villaggio and Evan Dillon at Balloons.

United Tour Riders make a stop in Ellicottville

Beginning Aug. 31, members of the United Tour Riders motorcycle club made Ellicottville their home base for a week of motorcycling and exploring Western New York.

The United Tour Riders (UTR) is a family-oriented group of motorcyclists from Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Virginia, and this is their 25th year.

The highlight of the year is the annual September week-long rally. This year, they selected Western New York and were excited to explore this area and its many interesting places, such as Allegany State Park, Seneca Iroquois Museum, Kinzua Skywalk, Chautauqua Institute, Rock City, National Comedy Center, Zoar Valley and Lake Erie Wine country, just to name a few.

Each night after the daily excursions, UTR meets to briefly exchange thoughts of that day’s ride and get details of the next

www.EllicottvilleTimes.com

day’s upcoming ride. The visit will be capped off by a banquet at Finnerty’s Tap Room in Ellicottville.

Formed in 1995, UTR promotes safe motorcycling, offers assistance to non-profit organizations, and encourages the wellbeing of our members. They currently have 95 members.

They have traveled to many states on the east coast — Kentucky, Massachusetts, North Carolina, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia. They love to explore new places, meet new people and learn about the area.

“We looked for years and finally found a great one in the Midwest.”

A new agricultural exhibit debuts as well.

It’s called Birds & Bees. One side of the building will house a beehive with glass walls so visitors can see the activity inside the hive. The other side of the building will feature a hatching area for baby chicks.

“We’re a working pumpkin farm, so it’s really important that we educate our visitors, especially kids, about the importance of agriculture,” said cofounder Dan Pawlowski.

Also new this year, Pumpkinville will be selling discounted attraction wristbands on their website www. pumpkinville.com through Oct. 5.

The popular Sunflower Daze will run from Sept. 14-22. Hayrides to the Sunflower Field, pick-your-own and photo opportunities will be available. You can also purchase bunches

of sunflowers with all proceeds benefitting The Pink Pumpkin Project in Olean.

Many of Pumpkinville’s favorite attractions will still be there including the SixAcre Corn Maze, Apple Blaster, Pumpkinville Express Train, The Fun Zone featuring covered and open 60-foot long slides, Barnyard Ballzone, Pumpkin Jumpin’ Pillows, Cow Train, Hayrides and much more.

Pumpkinville also offers a variety of delicious food to eat-in and take home.

The on-site bakery, Di’s Pies & Bake Shoppe, provides fresh-out-ofthe-oven baked goods including their famous pumpkin donuts.

Other products include home-made pumpkin bread, pumpkin pie, ice cream, old-fashioned Kettle Corn, caramel sauce and caramel apples, fudge, jam, maple products and much more.

“We’re one of the few places in the country where you can get something homemade right out of

the oven,” said Diane Pawlowski, who oversees the on-site bakery.

Visitors also can watch apples being pressed into cider in the restored 1870s cider mill. On weekends in October, weather permitting, they can also take a helicopter ride and see the gorgeous fall foliage from above.

Don’t forget the main attraction – pumpkins!

With more than 25 acres in the pumpkin patch, you’ll find the perfect pumpkins for decorating. Whether you like the traditional orange pumpkins or the exotic pumpkins with assorted sizes, colors and shapes, Pumpkinville will have it.

Pumpkinville, the oldest, continuously working pumpkin farm in New York state, opens Sept. 14 and runs daily through Oct. 31.

Hours are 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. rain or shine.

Pumpkinville is just minutes from Ellicottville at 4844 Sugartown Road in Great Valley.

New attractions coming to Pumpkinville this fall

Each year Pumpkinville’s greatest challenge is enhancing the visitor experience. This year, Pumpkinville has outdone itself with many new additions.

The biggest attraction will be the Happy Horse Carousel. The antique merry-go-round was just restored in St. Louis, Missouri and relocated to the 200-acre grounds at Pumpkinville.

“We’ve always wanted a carousel at Pumpkinville,” said Diane Pawlowski, who has owned the seasonal attraction with her husband, Dan, and their children since 1996.

National Alpaca Farm Days are held every fall, and this year’s event is Sept. 28-29. Be sure to visit several of the local alpaca farms, where you can meet a soft and gentle alpaca, learn about their products and visit the gift shop too! Alpaca farms nationwide will open their farms to the public.

This is a great time to get out to alpaca farms and learn about alpacas, their background, their fleece and what can be done with it, the products the fleece makes, the tax benefits to owning alpacas, costs of raising alpacas and, of course, the babies or crias as they are called.

Most farms will be open between 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days.

This month is about the changing of the seasons, the end of summer fun and the beginning of fall excitement. Don’t miss your chance to enjoy every moment and make this a September to remember!

The Allegany State Park Historical Society and The Friends of Allegany State Park will host walks on the weekends for park visitors to discover Stone Tower.

These free events are open to the public and weather dependent. The program will continue every weekend until Oct. 13.

The first walk of the month was Sept. 1, with other September dates being the 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th.

Walkers can meet anytime from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Sundays at the APS Stone Tower (Program Site 17).

In June of 1933, Company 249 of the Civilian Conservation Corps (part of FDR’s New Deal) arrived at Allegany State Park whose task was to construct a stone observation tower on the summit of a hill. The men commenced the Stone Tower in October 1933. Their campsite of World War I

surplus tents was located just below where the tower now stands.

Stone Tower includes a winding staircase leading up to the top deck, which consisted of wooden guardrails. The stone used to build the tower was all collected and cut in Allegany State Park. The octagonal shape tower stands at an elevation of 2,250 feet and overlooks Salamanca to the North and Red House Lake to the South. A carving of an arrow pointing north was etched in the center of its upper deck.

The Stone Tower was completed in the spring of 1934. The tower has never been used for anything other than recreational observational tower by park visitors.

Photo by Deb Everts Don and Jennifer Cramer are trying to make a difference in the lives of local disabled veterans with their beagles.

The couple is launching a Veterans’ Emotional Support Animal Program. Don Cramer is shown with his emotional support dog, Sno-Ballz.

By Deb Everts A Great Valley couple has found that the love of a beagle can make a huge difference in the life of a disabled veteran.

What started out as just an idea is blossoming into a Veterans’ Emotional Support Animal Program, something Don and Jennifer Cramer are making a reality with help from the community.

In this program, the Cramers will be gifting beagles from their kennel, Muleskinnerz Beagles LLC, to qualified veteran recipients. They will be personally donating a beagle puppy every year and, as their female breeders retire at a young age of 4 to 5 years old, they will periodically gift an adult beagle from their kennel.

The couple has witnessed first-hand the power of a dog’s love. Through this program, they hope to give back by sharing their dogs with disabled veterans and their families.

A veteran himself, Don knows what it’s like to suffer with a disability. He has significant hearing loss from working around the planes when he served in the United States Air Force during the Gulf War. Since then, communication for him has become difficult, unless it is one-on-one and face-to-face.

According to Jennifer, the idea for the emotional support animal program began in November 2014 with two little beagles that gave her husband some relief. That was when she gave him Sno-Ballz — his emotional support animal — and Liddel Wun, her sister, for his birthday.

“Don had always talked about his love for hunting with his family and their beagles. The excitement and smile he had speaking of the ‘good ole’ days’ gave me the idea for the pups,” she said. “When he discovered how much the beagles were helping him while he worked with them, he decided to form his business, Muleskinnerz Beagles LLC, in July 2018.”

Jennifer said their Peerto-Peer Christian-based program uses the love of God and beagles, both unconditional and neverending, to help veterans with their own struggles in hopes of restoring joy and hope for a better tomorrow.

Jennifer said they want to start by erecting a pavilion on the kennel grounds as a meeting place for the recipients to receive their dogs and get involved in the club. She said the dogs will be gifted and future fundraisers will generate money to pay for their memberships, so there will be no cost to the veterans.

They’ll also make sure the dogs are spayed or neutered and up-to-date on all their shots.

The Cramers are members of the Enchanted Mountains Beagle Club and enjoy participating in AKC field trial events. Jennifer said they have access to a 140-acre

fenced-in pen, and they want these veterans to get involved in the events as well.

According to the United States Dog Registry, emotional support dogs provide comfort and support in forms of affection and companionship for an individual suffering from various mental and emotional conditions including anxiety, depression and bipolar disorder/mood disorder, among others.

“A service dog or a therapy dog has a specific job to do, so the criteria is very strict for them. An emotional support dog only has to give love,” Jennifer said.

“A licensed mental health counselor will determine if the veteran is an appropriate candidate for an emotional support dog.”

When she is ready, Mrs. Muleskinnerz Matters of the Heart “Maddie” will be their first adult dog to be gifted. Jennifer said they are currently talking with two veterans who are interested in Maddie, but the first puppy is secured.

The first veteran to receive a Muleskinnerz beagle puppy was Don Siegel of Westline, Pa., on Sept. 1. A former Army Paratrooper, Siegel served his country in Grenada, Honduras and Nicaragua from 1982-87.

Jennifer said he used to rabbit hunt with his dad when he was younger. She said the look on his face was priceless, and he’s “over the moon” excited to have a beagle.

“I cannot believe how much God is working to bring this idea to life,” she said. “It’s all unfolding, one blessing at a time.”

To share this healing discovery, Don and Jennifer Cramer are hosting the Muleskinnerz Beagle Bash fundraiser Sept. 14.at 4803 Porter Hollow Road, in Great Valley, from noon to 6 p.m.

Families will have the opportunity to participate in fun activities while supporting this worthy cause. The event will include a corn hole tournament with prizes, a 50/50 raffle, Chinese auction, food and entertainment by DJ Mick McMillan.

The Chinese auction will include an overnight stay at the Wingate by Wyndham in Ellicottville. Since the cornhole tournament is supposed to be just for fun, set teams are not allowed and partners will be randomly chosen. Entry fee is $10; registration closes at 1:45 p.m. and the tournament will start at 2.

Suggested donation is $10.

Children under 10 years old will be admitted free. All proceeds will be used to erect a pavilion as a gathering place for disabled veterans in the program.

Donations can be mailed to: Muleskinnerz Beagles LLC, 4803 Porter Hollow Road, Great Valley, NY 14741.

For more information, call 803-4986, email muleskinnerzbeagles@ gmail.com or visit muleskinnerzbeagles.com.

Back in HC role, Marsh hopes to keep Titans rolling

By Sam Wilson

While the playbook might not look identical to last season’s, Jason Marsh hopes to provide as smooth a transition as possible for his Franklinville/Ellicottville football players in his first season as the Titans’ head coach.

Marsh and the players know each other from his three seasons as an F/E assistant, starting as a volunteer in 2016. And he has plenty of experience as a head coach, having served nine years in the top job at Salamanca. Now, he hopes to continue the success the Titans experienced under Chad Bartoszek, who went 41-16 in six years (37-12 since the merger) before leaving Ellicottville for his hometown of Salamanca this year.

“Even the Franklinville guys, I only see them generally during football season and whatnot but I definitely know who they are and we have a pretty good relationship,” Marsh said of connecting with his players. “It’s good that I’m not a completely new face to them. I think that’s a pretty easy transition then.”

For Marsh, returning to the head coaching job meant picking up some of the lessglamorous responsibilities he had forgotten.

“A lot of the clerical stuff, getting back into doing all that stuff again, getting busses and doing all the ordering of equipment,” Marsh said his new head coaching duties. “That’s the main difference. The Xs and Os is generally the easy part, it’s all those other little things that become tedious.”

F/E took a slight step back last year after four consecutive trips to New Era Field for the Section 6 championship game.

The Titans went 5-4, but still finished the season in a different sort of championship setting, winning the Chuck Funke Memorial Bowl Class C final, 27-14 over Portville.

Now F/E returns 15 letterwinners, including 11 starters and nine seniors.

Marsh hopes that varsity experience and a taste of winning will lead to improvement this season.

“We were really young on the offensive line last year and then also last year we had an injury to a key player in (senior running back/ linebacker) Jake Peters,” Marsh said of 2018. “When we lost him, it set us back a little bit. But we had guys that stepped up and we knew on the offensive line that we

had to play better. So that’s where — and I really think as the season wore on — we started to play a lot better on the offensive line.”

F/E also saw development from Logan Frank, who returns at quarterback and defensive back as a junior.

“We were starting a sophomore quarterback last year and his progress from Week 1 to the end of the season was tremendous,” Marsh said. “Logan Frank, you could watch him grow each week and his confidence from beginning to end was a world of difference.

“The thing I think we’ll see more of is last year, Logan was doing a lot of learning, trying to pick up everything and I think it was a process of having the game slow down for him. Now I think he can build on that and that game is now going to be played at a different pace for him. Now he can work on being the leader out there. I think he has great leadership qualities and I think we’re going to see that out of a lot of our guys.

Three other rising juniors — Clayton Rowland, Wyatt Chudy and Brett Kryniski — saw starting action as sophomores.

been in battles, they’ve been tested a little bit. They played in tight games. So I think for us that’s the biggest thing. We ended the season with a fair amount of confidence and at least a little bit of savvy.”

Aside from the head coaching change, F/E’s staff remains essentially intact, with Chris Mendell running the defense and Mark Blecha the special teams. Bill Delity joined the staff coaching offensive line and will help with the junior varsity along with Scott Palmatier and Reed Mitrowski and Harley Butler helps the lines as a volunteer.

In league play, F/E returns to Class D after a year at the ‘C’ level, playing against Cattaraugus-Little Valley, Randolph, Salamanca and defending state champion Clymer/Sherman Panama.

Maple Grove was slated to return to the league, but will instead play eight-man football this season.

Even with the merger, which has led to five winning seasons including four trips to the Section 6 Class D finals, Franklinville/ Ellicottville has issues with depth. Marsh listed 31 players on his initial varsity roster.

Schedule:

Friday, Sept. 6 — Allegany-Limestone (at Franklinville), 7 p.m.

Friday, Sept. 13 — at Randolph, 7 p.m.

Friday, Sept. 20 — Clymer/Sherman/Panama (at Ellicottville), 7 p.m.

Friday, Sept. 27 — JFK (at Franklinville), 7 p.m.

Friday, Oct. 4 — Bolivar-Richburg (at Ellicottville), 7 p.m.

Friday, Oct. 11 — at Cattaraugus-Little Valley, 7 p.m.

Friday, Oct. 18 — at Salamanca, 7 p.m.

“A lot of guys, they were new to varsity football and their heads were kind of spinning,” Marsh noted.

“They were concentrating so much on their assignments and where they needed to be and whatnot. Now I think we’ll see those leadership skills come out in everybody.”

Marsh said the team “definitely has a similar feel” to three years ago, when players like Brock Blecha, Griffin Chudy and Sam Erickson returned as second-year starters as juniors. But despite a high number of returning starters and letterwinners, the Titans aren’t a finished product.

“There’s still going to be quite a bit of teaching because we are changing a few things with what we do. But it’s nice to have (experience). I think it increases our confidence.

Our confidence should be at a different level because we do have experience. They’ve

“I really think our numbers, I would like to see them higher,” Marsh acknowledged. “Probably most coaches do, but it’s definitely a concern. Our numbers are always a concern. I think this year we’re going to be in good shape, but we’re definitely concerned what our numbers are going to be like on down the road.”

This season should also give Marsh a chance to coach his son, Lucas, a sophomore, for the first time in varsity football. The son is listed at quarterback (behind Frank) and defensive back.

“He’ll be a guy that’s probably going to bounce around between JV and (varsity),” Jason Marsh said.

“We don’t know if he can handle being the backup quarterback, hopefully we’ll never have to find out, so he’ll probably spend a lot of time playing JV quarterback.

He’s gotta get reps and Logan’s a stud. There’s

just not a place for (Lucas).

Logan Frank is a good player and I think we’re going to hear a lot of good things from him this year.”

Ellicottville school fills PE position before classes resume

By Ginna Hensel

On Tuesday, Aug. 27 the Ellicottville Central School Board of Education passed a resolution to appoint Kathryn Boutetto to the FTE Physical Education Teacher position.

Boutetto has her master’s degree in Physical Education and is pending her certification in Health.

The resignation of Nicole Rust as a teacher aid was accepted by the board. Other personnel changes include appointing Vonnie Dickinson to the position of temporary long-term substitute office aid, appointing John Caldwell to the position of bus driver and Shawn Croker to the position of lead cleaner.

The Board also passed four

resolutions to add four personnel to the substitute list. Rebecca Messer, Clara Kosinki, Ashley Mumm and Nicole Rust were added to the substitute list. Messer, Kosinki and Mumm are pending a “successful fingerprint clearance from New York state.”

During Superintendent Bob Miller’s report, he spoke of the upcoming lacrosse tournament. The tournament will be held during Sept. 20-22. The tournament also serves a “wonderful opportunity” for sports boosters to raise money with the concession sales.

Miller also reported that the parking lot has been lined and numbered.

New business resolutions passed at the meeting include the approval of a new textbook for an elective class taught by Cathie Nason, acceptance of

a donation of weed removal and mulch for the school courtyard from Michelle Wedvik, approval to accept a donation of a scoreboard for the soccer field, new flag and halyards for the athletic fields and a soccer tutor ball machine all from sports boosters.

Two policy resolutions were passed at the meeting which consisted of approval of the changes to policy #7110 Comprehensive Student Attendance Policy and approval of the Athletic and Extra Curricular Activities policy.

The board then entered into an executive session to discuss one student discipline matter, the Superintendent’s Evaluation and one student transportation matter.

The next meeting will be held on Tuesday, Sept. 10 at 6 p.m.

HEALTH & FITNESS:

HOW LONG SHOULD YOU REST WHILE STRENGTH TRAINING?

By Kim Duke

When you’re strength training, there’s more to consider than reps and how much weight to pick up.

Another important factor in improving: rest between sets.

The amount of break time you take determines how your muscles adapt to the movement, said Carwyn Sharp, Ph.D., chief science officer for the National Strength and Conditioning Association. “Matching rest periods and intensities places the appropriate amount of stress on the muscles and their energy systems,” he said.

Besides working your muscles in different ways, the breather you take between exercises correlates to injury prevention.

“If you wait too long to move your muscles again, they become cold, which increases the risk of injury due to muscle damage,” said Peter McCall, exercise physiologist and American Council on Exercise trainer.

“On the other hand, if you don’t rest long enough, your body can’t replenish the muscles’ energy efficiently, so you’re exercising in a fatigued state. This can lead

to poor form and therefore injury.”

In my experience, most of my clients want to shed extra weight and tone, sculpt and strengthen their muscles, not add extra mass like a bodybuilder. For these clients, rest periods are less than 30 seconds.

Fitting into a smaller pants size involves a combo of many approaches, Sharp said. Eliminating rest periods and pushing through a 30-minute workout without stopping will certainly help you torch more calories, a key to losing weight — but that’s not the only factor.

“Maintaining or increasing muscle mass and strength are also important because they allow your body to burn more calories while at rest,” he explained. The more muscle you have, the higher your calorie burn throughout the day, even when you’re sitting on the couch. If you’re new to weight training, you can also try the plan below.

If your goal is to get stronger and faster and add muscle mass then I recommend pumping heavy iron — 85 percent or more of the max weight you can lift — you should rest a minimum of two minutes

between sets. This will maximize your strength gains. Even better, waiting three minutes will help lower your perceived exertion levels or how hard you think you’re working, while still boosting your stamina.

“The rest between sets determines your ability to sustain the heavyweight for subsequent sets,” said Estevao Scudese, study author and associate researcher at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. This study also supports resting longer to lift more weight later.

So what should you do during those minutes of rest?

Sit and relax, especially if you focused on your legs.

Another study found that rest intervals are particularly important when working major muscle groups, like those in your lower body. If you worked your shoulders, arms or chest and prefer not to take a seat, walk around the room. Another option: Shake out your limbs to release any tension and help keep yourself calm and loose between sets.

For those who just can’t squeeze in the necessary wait time, try doing supersets.

This involves alternating

exercises that focus on different muscle groups.

For example, do push-ups followed by deadlifts — the upper body can then rest while you work your lower half and vice versa.

One more note about lifting heavy weights: it’s a great — and safe — idea to have a spotter. Whether that’s a fellow lifter or a trainer, knowing a spotter is there can put you at ease mentally, allowing you to complete reps with better form.

Of course, any of these outcomes will improve your health — strength, muscle mass, endurance and weight loss are all positive outcomes. So if you end up cutting your rest a little shorter or making it longer than planned, don’t fret: You’ll still gain benefits. Just keep in mind that the heavier the weight you’re lifting, the longer you should wait to pick it back up.

Even more important: listen to your body. If you feel too tired or your heart rate is too high to start another round, give yourself a few extra seconds. If you’re feeling strong and energized, make your rest time a little shorter that day.

Ellicottville Superintendent ready for school after busy summer

By Kellen M. Quigley

As classes resumed this week for the Ellicottville Central School District, Superintendent Bob Miller said signs of school starting were most certainly evident the past few weeks.

“The floors have been freshly sealed, practices for fall sports have started, teachers are getting their rooms in order, summer maintenance on the busses has been performed and the list goes on,” he said. “I always get excited at this time of year and look forward to the students returning and getting going on another great year.”

After a busy summer at the district, Miller said students and staff will see a few changes and additions to the opportunities that ECS offers.

“Seventy-five new laptops have been purchased to replace ones that are five years old,” he said. “We do this on an annual basis in order to keep current with technology use and requirements.”

The district is also adding three additional Clear Touch Screens for educational use in classrooms and switching to a software program called FastBridge for progress monitoring of students, Miller said.

Among the other new things this year are the hiring of a full-time school psychologist, expanding parent/community outreach evenings, installation of the new floor in the lower level of the Elementary School and a redesigned Response to

Intervention system to identify students that need extra assistance quickly and provide for better progress monitoring.

Miller said there is also a continuation of “The Wellness Committee,” a combination of students and staff, at the middle and high school level to promote overall student emotional/social health and wellness.

“At the same time, we are also looking to the future to ensure that ECS remains an educational leader in Western New York,” he said. “We are now working with a new financial advisor to develop a long-range financial plan for the district.”

The Building, Grounds and Transportation Committee has started planning for the next capital improvement project with an anticipated vote on the project in December 2019, Miller said.

“This project will continue to address deficiencies noted in the building condition survey that were not addressed under previous capital improvement projects, with a focus on improvements to roofs, parking lots, exterior lighting, cafeteria upgrades and safety items,” he said.

In more behind-the-scenes work, Miller said the district recently completed a self-imposed “audit” of the Special Education Department.

The report has been completed and the district will be acting on many of the suggestions accordingly.

He said the Board of Education will be having an evening “retreat”

in September to discuss and establish goals for the future. They are still researching and anticipate developing a system to more efficiently reach out to parents and the community through social media and cell phones.

Concerning extracurricular activities, the Athletic and Performing Arts committees have merged into one committee.

“This will allow for better consistency and thorough planning,” Miller said. “The committee has already met and is working through revisions to change the Athletic Policy into the Athletic and Extracurricular Activities Policy as well as updates to the Eligibility Regulations.”

In addition to these items, Miller said the district working hard on programming for all students in grades Pre-K through 12. From curriculum to safety plans and everything in between, he said they want every student to have access to the staff, materials and supplies they need to reach their highest potential.

“ECS has always been a leader in providing a great education to students and will strive to continue that tradition of excellence,” he said.

“We also realize that the school cannot provide such an education without the outstanding support that parents and the community have offered and continue to offer and we thank you. I have no doubt that the 2019-20 school year will be filled with success.”

‘Old Bones’

by Preston & Child

Nora Kelly, a young curator at the Santa Fe Institute of Archaeology, is approached by historian Clive Benton with a once-in-alifetime proposal: to lead a team in search of the so-called “Lost Camp” of the tragic Donner Party.

Benton tells Kelly he has stumbled upon an amazing find: the long-sought diary of one of the victims, which has an enigmatic description of the Lost Camp. Nora agrees to lead an expedition to locate and excavate it-to reveal its long-buried secrets.

Once in the mountains, however, they expose the real truth of what happened, one that is far more shocking and bizarre than mere cannibalism. And when those ancient horrors lead to present-day violence on a grand scale, rookie FBI agent Corrie Swanson is assigned the case, only to find that her first investigation might very well be her last.

Summer Choose gifts that make woodworking/DIY projects easier

For the 2019 holiday gifting season, Woodcraft offers a list of products to make some of the most essential woodworking and DIY activities easier, plus an intriguing wood model.

Cutting and Clamping Whether you’re crosscutting boards to length, ripping them to width or

cutting plywood sheets and large panels down to size, Kreg’s Adaptive Cutting System offers options to make cutting chores easier.

The Plunge Saw and 62” Guide Track paired in the Saw Plus Guide Kit are the basic components, while the Project Table Top and Base and a host of accessories are

available to increase cutting capacity and performance.

Gyokucho Razorsaw Ryoba No 610 is a doubleedged saw - rip teeth on one cutting edge and crosscut teeth on the other - that can handle anything from cutoff work to ripping a panel.

ZHEN Stainless Steel Scissors feature a serrated

edge for retaining sharpness and a large gullet to prevent slipping when cutting thick items. In addition, the scissors double as a wire cutter and opener for bottles, twist lids and paint cans.

Ehoma Parallel Jaw Clamps offer large parallel clamping surfaces for the most demanding projects.

Available in 24”, 31”, 40” and 50” sizes, the clamp has rounded corners to prevent damage to a workpiece.

Easily convert it into a spreader.

Let Us Design Your Dream Kitchen or Bath!

Shaping and Sanding WoodRiver Butt Chisels, available in a 4-piece set, are shorter and good for installing butt hinges and trimming small edges.

But they also work well in confined spaces, such as corners, which makes cleaning joints easier for work on cabinets, desks, and other complex furniture.

A 5mm bit version is also available.

WoodRiver 24-in-1 Screwdriver Bit Set is the perfect solution for loosening and tightening some of the

It’s a nearly-scientific fact that you can solve most any problem by putting dirt on it. Scraped knee? Dirt.

Embarrassing bald spot? Dirt. Nagging mother-in-law? Dirt. Lots of it. Juuust kidding. The point is, when people need a little more excitement in life, they probably just need to add a little dirt. And that’s where KIOTI tractors come in.

Intuitively designed to dominate the dirt, these machines make it an easy decision for anyone also inclined to favor the filthy.

Cattaraugus County Sheriff’s Office warns of phone scam The Cattaraugus County Sheriff’s Office has issued a warning concerning a reported scam where callers claim to represent the Social Security Administration.

Officials said the callers ask people to press 1 and then request personal information.

The Social Security Administration confirms they do not call individuals, as all business is transacted through their office by mail.

If such a call is received, residents are encouraged to call their local police agency. Personal information should never be given out over the phone.
