The Rotary Club of Ellicottville’s Tuscan Moon this past Saturday was a tremendous success. Once again the weather was great, a little cooler than normal but nice. Over 150 guests attended adding to the great
atmosphere and excitement at the Silent Auction Table. Thanks to the generosity of the guests in both the silent and live auction Rotary will hit their goal of raising $10,000.00 for both Family Support for Ellicottville and Rotary Foundation for Youth. See Tuscan Moon page 2

The Italian Menu with 14 stations was outstanding according to most guests surveyed. Once again this year’s music by Michael Nugent was a hit as Michael played well over 2 hours straight before the live auction. Tom Kneeland’s dessert table was over the top with a two tier Tiramisu the crowning jewel surrounded by Watson’s Chocolates. Many used the “To Go” containers to bring home their favorite.

and the standards have been met. The Storm Water Management Plan is being worked out in conjunction with the Town Engineer. Currently, utility easements are being worked out. There will be minimal impact on the wetlands and therefore, the proprietor has applications in for approval from the Army Corps of Engineers. Last month, there was a concern regarding the driveway width and it has been addressed so that it meets Fire Code Regulations. There were also two parking spots added per Town Planner, Gary Palumbo’s recommendations. A revised Photometric Plan was provided along with a revised Landscaping Plan. Both plans have satisfied the requirements of the TPB. There was a motion to approve the Site Plan, Architectural Review and Special Use Permit with the
following conditions: Town Engineer must give final approval on Site Plan, Storm Water Management System & Water/Sewer Plan, Sign will be approved by the Code Enforcement Officer, Access Easements must be worked out, United States Army Corps of Engineers must approve there will be minimal impact to wetlands, there needs to be a revised Photometric Plan (already done), and last, County Health Department must approve the water plan. There was a second and it was approved. Win Sum Corporation applied for a new electronic sign. The intent is for it to inform visitors on parking, whether the lots are full or not and will have a directional to drop off. They feel it will be the best way to inform the visitors. It will be a 36.5 sq. ft. ground sign with a 15.7 sq. ft. digital display. There was a motion to approve the sign
with the following conditions: digital display will not change more than two times per day, it will be a static image no animation or flashing, the minimum number of colors needed to convey the message will be used, the sign will not be bright enough to impair or distract driver’s vision, and last, it will be located 23 feet away from the inside of the curb. There was a second and the board approved the sign. There were slight corrections to the minutes; the discussion regarding the Comprehensive Plan Chapter 8 will be retracted as it is just discussion and no matters were finalized. The board made a motion to approved the corrected minutes from the July 2017 meeting, there was a second and it was approved. The next regularly scheduled meeting of the TPB will be on Sept. 25, 2017 at 6 p.m. at the Town Hall.

Rock and Roll Weekend Continued from front page
the movie starts at 8 p.m. Madigan’s hosts Ellicottville favorites, Party Squad. in their green bar Friday night at 6. Party Squad is made up of Buffalo Music Hall of Fame members and is regionally one of the most recognized and respected bands playing. At 7 on Friday night, Darkwater Duo will be on the mainstage at Balloons. The band, usually just a duo but occasionally has others sitting in, plays some great acoustic mix covers of familiar songs.
They are quickly building a following with their fun style. Finnerty’s gets into the mix for their first year as a part of Rock and Roll Weekend with Gregg Sansone at 8 p.m. A member of the Buffalo Music Awards Hall of Achievement, Gregg is known for his ability to create a full-band sound from his keyboard, producing not only a unique one-man show but a performance that will have you up and dancing. His music ranges from acoustic pieces to jazz and blues, alternative and classic rock, even a bit of country and Celtic rock. Perennial watering spot for Ellicottville, The Gin Mill, will host 2 Guys Drinkin’ Beer at 9 p.m. The acoustic duo brings great music and fun to the show every time they perform. Villaggio will host Kickstart Rumble at 9 p.m. Kickstart plays originals that range in sound from the early days of Rock and Roll to modern rockabilly and pop punk. They also play covers ranging from Elvis to Reverend Horton Heat, Buddy Holly, and the Stray Cats. According to their website, “[T]his isn’t the 50’s and neither are we, so don’t
expect to be sitting down or having a cup of tea.” Saturday, Sept. 16 The music continues Saturday with an 80s party band at The Winery of Ellicottville Mainstage on Monroe Street. The band will be playing the tunes that made the music of the 1980s so special. The party starts at 1 p.m. on the north side of Monroe Street, right in front of The Winery of Ellicottville. Finnerty’s keeps things going at 3 p.m. with The Carl Motyka Band. The ensemble plays rock from the 1950s to now, but specializes in the stuff that will have you dancing and reminiscing. These guys play everything from The Beatles to Lynyrd Skynyrd to Journey, Tom Petty, Cheap Trick, and many more. East Aurora’s party band, Never Ben, takes to the Madigan’s stage at 6 p.m. Playing music from the 1960s to today, these musicians will be what you’re looking for when it comes to some of the classics. Never Ben covers tunes from Led Zeppelin, The Who, Kings of Leon, even U2 and Lenny Kravitz, all with the occasional country and reggae
sound mixed in. Balloons keeps things rolling with Hayden Fogel on stage at 6 p.m. Fogel is a 17-year-old blues guitar prodigy that was immersed into the spotlight when none other than Buddy Guy invited him to play on stage at a show in Buffalo. He and his band have been named one of the top three blues bands in the region by the ALL WNY Music Awards. The show will be one not to miss! At 8, just down the street at Ellicottville Brewing Company, The Untouchables will perform. These guys will entertain you with some great rhythm and blues, oldies rock and roll, classic soul and much more. After two decades of performing in Western New York and Pennsylvania, they know how to command a stage. Villaggio will wrap up Saturday with DNR on Tap at 9 p.m. DNR is a four-piece band that plays familiar rock and blues from the 1970s to today’s hits. At the same time, Live ‘N’ Kickin’ will be playing at The
Gin Mill. The Buffalo-based trio performs their usual highenergy, danceable rock and roll, with just a bit of country mixed in. Sunday, Sept. 17 Sunday features the annual car show. Washington, Jefferson, and Monroe Streets will all be closed as over 250 cars and trucks will be on display. Bring the kids out to see autos from the early 1900s to today. Some military vehicles will also be on display.
At 2 p.m., head over to the gazebo for internationally renown Elvis impersonator, Terry Buchwald. You may want to get there early. His shows have a habit of running short of space pretty quick. After Elvis leaves the gazebo, Terry transforms himself into Garth Brooks and continues to entertain the audience. It is an experience that you have to experience. All the fun starts Friday, Sept. 15 and continues until 5 p.m. on Sunday.

communities are in the best position to provide longterm support for survivors of natural disasters like Hurricane Harvey. By funding the relief efforts of local organizations, donations to this fund have the potential to build stronger response capacity so that these organizations are better equipped to face future challenges. GlobalGiving will post reports about how funds have been used and will email these reports to donors. All donations to this fund will support recovery and relief efforts for Hurricane Harvey. Initially, the fund will help first responders meet survivors’ immediate needs for food, fuel, clean water, hygiene

Texas Rotary District Collects Emergency Funds for Hurricane Harvey Victims
Rotary clubs in District 5930 (Texas, USA) are collecting emergency relief funds to help flood victims of Hurricane Harvey, which slammed into southeast Texas over the weekend. Severe rainfall has caused historic flooding along the Texas coast, including in Houston, the fourth largest city by population in the United States. Deluged towns in the region are in desperate need of aid as thousands of residents were forced to flee their homes. About 6.8 million people have been affected by the hurricane, which made landfall on 25 August. District 5930 has partnered with the nonprofit McAllen North Rotary Fund to set up an emergency relief fund. To help, please send checks and gift cards to: Rotary District 5930 / McAllen North Rotary Fund 501 W.

Core Performance is so fortunate to have the amazing Monica Castillo Mengotti as one of their personal trainers and fitness instructors. Monica brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to our studio, as well as a contagious energy that will put a smile on anyone’s face that meets her. Monica is a fully certified Pilates instructor who incorporates core strength and breathing into every aspect of her life. Recently, Monica discussed sharing another passion called Nordic Walking with members of our studio and community. She took me on a walk to demonstrate the differences and benefits of Nordic walking vs. conventional walking. I immediately noticed my stride, pace and posture improved. You cannot Nordic walk without engaging your core and I felt more energized than if I had taken my traditional fast paced walk.
To understand Nordic Walking, I turned to the Internet. According to Wikipedia “Nordic walking is a total body version of walking that can be enjoyed both by non-athletes as a health-promoting physical activity, and by athletes as a sport. The activity is performed with specially designed walking poles similar to ski poles. Nordic Walking’s concept was developed on the basis of off-season ski-training activity. Nordic walkers use more of their entire body (with greater intensity) and receive fitness building stimulation not present in normal walking. According to the findings of the research, conducted by the group scientists from various universities, both Nordic walking and conventional walking are beneficial for older adults. However, Nordic walking provides additional benefits in muscular strength compared to conventional walking, making it suitable for improving aerobic capacity and muscular strength as well as other components of functional fitness in a short period of time.” What I immediately loved about this activity is its simplicity. This exercise is for everyone and anyone who would like to improve their cardio vascular while strengthening their core muscles and posture. Also, very little equipment is required to participate in this activity. If you own comfortable
clothes, sneakers and a set of ski poles, you are all set. Monica would like to offer classes on Nordic Walking on Saturdays and Sundays during the month of September and October. And since classes will be held outside, we know weather can be a deterrent to some participants, therefore, you can choose the days you would like to walk/hike. Classes come in 4-packs and are $60 for four classes. Most classes will run between 1-2 hours and will start on flat land and progress to hilly terrains. For more information pleases contact Monica at (716) 2299871 or Kim at (716) 698-1198. To experience Monica’s Pilates classes, come to Core Performance on Wednesdays and Fridays at 8:30 a.m. or 5:30 p.m. on Wednesdays. Monica would also like to offer a Pilates circuit class on Saturdays at 9 a.m. Classes in studio are $10/class.

Season outlook: These Eagles have a lot of individual skills and a high soccer IQ, but our season will depend on how quickly they come together as a team. Our league is brutal, and our non-league consists of two bigger schools, Jamestown and Fredonia. So our record may not be where we would like it to be at the end of the season, but we should be ready to be very competitive when playoffs come around. Roster includes seniors Mitchell Sexton, Noah Stuve, Elliot Bowen, Parker Rieman, Zach Kurtis and Evan Quinn, juniors Brenna Finn, Ned Hartsell, Logan Knab and Mike McGuire, sophomores Jack Snyder, Simon Lin and Adrian deOrbe, and freshment Noah Steinbroner, Justin Imhoff, Kolby Aldrich and Bryce Butler.

Vet Talks Pets The Importance of Annual Exams
would equilibrate to an exam every 6 to 7 years for the average person! Currently, we recommend you have your pet examined at least once a year, and with senior pets (over 8 in average breeds), an exam every six months is recommended. Remember, pets, especially cats, are very good at masking disease and many times, it becomes too difficult or too expensive to treat the problem when clinical signs have been going on awhile, so this exam will give you that valuable insight into the health of your pet before it could be too late. During the annual exam by the veterinarian, many systems By Sheila Fitzpatrick, DVM are checked.

infections. Heart disease can be a “silent killer” in pets if gone undetected. Should it be found early, EKG , XRays and Cardiac Ultrasounds can be performed to further diagnose the nature of the disease and to dictate a proper treatment that can improve your pet’s quality of life in addition to longevity. Should lung issues arise, X-rays can be performed to rule out infection, cancer or even asthma/allergic bronchitis. Useful bloodwork can also be performed to further diagnose and dictate treatment on your pet’s potential lung problem. The abdomen of your pet is then examined to check for enlarged organs, tumors and size of. In just a few minutes, your veterinarian can give you a lot of information on just what he/she can feel in your pet, which is useful in determining the health status of your pet at this time. Should an anomaly be found, then your veterinarian can proceed with useful bloodwork, Xrays and even abdominal ultrasound and assure your pet has the best treatment possible. The joints of your pet will all be examined in the annual exam as well. Inherited abnormalities, joint thickening, instability, or pain can all be detected and an appropriate treatment plan determined, and early prevention tactics can be taken . Finally, the skin of your pet is examined. Young pets can be prone to mite infections, which if not treated, can lead to moderate hair loss. As a pet ages, thinning hair coat, excessive scaling, excessive shedding, can indicate metabolic diseases which, with proper diagnostic blood tests, can be treated easily. So, the next time your veterinarian calls to remind you of your pet’s annual check up, don’t put it off! There is a lot of useful information that can be gained, and you can be assured, you are doing your best to give your pet the longest, happiest life possible!

“Glass Houses” by Louise Penny
When a mysterious figure appears in Three Pines one cold November day, Armand Gamache and the rest of the villagers are at first curious. Then wary. Through rain and sleet, the figure stands unmoving, staring ahead. From the moment its shadow falls over the village, Gamache, now Chief Superintendent of the Sûreté du Québec, suspects the creature has deep roots and a dark purpose. Yet he does nothing. What can he do? Only watch and wait. And hope his mounting fears are not realized. But when the figure vanishes overnight and a body is discovered, it falls to Gamache to discover if a debt has been paid or levied. This book is currently available in book format only at the Ellicottville Memorial Library. It is also available as a large print book using our interlibrary loan program.

VanDyke Agency Moves to Great Valley
Cardinal Hills Golf Course 78 Conewango Road Randolph NY
716-358-5409
By Mary Heyl
Buying or selling a home can be an exciting experience, but the VanDyke Agency, LLC knows that it can be a stressful one, too. Fortunately, Todd and Ciji VanDyke’s years of experience and familiarity with the area take a lot of the stress out of the process! The real estate agency, which opened two and a half years ago, is excited to share the news of their move to Great Valley, one of the many communities they serve. Although the VanDyke Agency is a newer business, the VanDykes are no strangers to the local real estate scene. Todd, a Real Estate Broker, has many years of experience in real estate and vacation rental departments from working with another local agency. Ciji, a Salamanca native, is a Licensed Real Estate Salesperson and draws from several years of real estate and marketing experience from working in her hometown. Over the past year, the VanDyke Agency has seen many changes as their business (and family!) continues to grow. Ciji explained, “Todd and I got married last year, and had a baby this past fall. We had a new agent in February come on board, and then we had two more agents come on board in the spring!” The agency welcomed two licensed real estate salespersons to the agency: Tom Pietras of New Albion is brand new to the industry, but has been busy selling and listing this year, as has Christy Marie Wiser of Great Valley, who has lived and worked in the area for several years. In April, Associate Real Estate Broker Timothy Philips of Franklinville joined the agency, bringing over 20 years of experience working with buyers and sellers in the Southern Tier. Just two weeks ago, the VanDyke Agency moved their office to 4774 Route 219 in Great Valley, not far from Katy’s Fly In Cafe. Their original location was at 696 Broad Street in Salamanca, but Ciji is excited about the move to a larger space: “The new office in Great Valley is a great central location and halfway point between Salamanca and Ellicottville.” The VanDyke Agency serves many communities across the Southern Tier, including Salamanca, Ellicottville, Great Valley, Little Valley, Olean, Allegany, and more. Although many associate real estate

Whether you are looking for a rental house, a vacation house, or have property you’d like to rent or sell, the VanDyke Agency will work hard to help you find what you’re looking for, as they have a true passion for what they do. Speaking of the growth of their business, Ciji said, “It’s so exciting for us! Real estate is a great business, and we love it. I can’t picture myself doing anything different. Taking that chance two and a half years ago to go out on our own was a big leap of faith, and it worked! To think that just a couple years later we bought our own nice office and have broken that barrier of the husband/wife team is an awesome feeling. Three people had reached out to us to come on board—the fact that people looked beyond us as a husband/wife team
spoke volumes of us as people and business owners. We’re so excited to have them as part of our team!” Did you know more than 85 percent of homes on the market are bought through local real estate sites? The VanDyke Agency’s website is no exception, and you can use this information to your advantage through their comprehensive web listings and photos: vandykeagency.com. Search for homes or properties in the area by location, or narrow down your choices by selecting the school district, year built, style, price range, property size, number of bedrooms and/ or bathrooms, and more!

Although it’s sad to see summer fade away, the change of seasons in Western New York is a sight to behold. No one knew this better than watercolorist Charles E. Burchfield, one of the best known American painters of his time. During his career, which spanned more than 50 years, Burchfield created over 1,400 paintings, many of which capture the beauty of the region’s landscapes at various times throughout the year. Experience Burchfield’s incredible work, along with the artwork of many other Western New York artists at the Burchfield Penney Art Center at SUNY Buffalo State. Born and raised in Ohio in 1893, Burchfield began painting at a young age and was inspired by the work of American nature writers, like Henry David Thoreau and Willa Cather. Burchfield graduated from the Cleveland Institute of Art in 1916, where he was heavily influenced by watercolor painter Henry Keller. He continued painting as a young man, and upon his engagement in 1921, Burchfield moved to Buffalo where he was employed as a designer by the H.M. Birge wallpaper company. Eager to support himself and his growing family (by 1928, he was married with a fifth child on the way), Burchfield approached a gallerist about selling his work through the Rehn gallery in New York. This new venture was a success and Burchfield’s paintings sold well, even through the Great Depression years. In 1930, Burchfield’s career skyrocketed when his early watercolors were featured in an exhibit at New York City’s Museum of Modern Art.
Over the course of his career, Burchfield’s work was featured in galleries such as Pittsburgh’s Carnegie Institute, Harvard University’s Fogg Art Museum, the Phillips Memorial Gallery in Washington, D.C. and the Musee de Jeu de Paume in Paris. Not only was Burchfield a prolific painter, creating hundreds of works, but he also taught courses periodically at the Art Institute of Buffalo, Buffalo Fine Arts Academy, Ohio University, Athens, and the University of Minnesota, Duluth. In 1966, the Charles Burchfield Center, a museum dedicated to his work, was inaugurated at the SUNY Buffalo campus, just one year before Burchfield passed away at his home in Buffalo. His legacy lives on at the Burchfield Penney Art Center, which was renamed in 1994 in honor of the generous donations of Charles Rand Penney, who contributed the largest private collection of works by Burchfield, including publications and hand-crafted domestic objects from the Roycroft community. In 1998, it was proposed that a new museum building be created for the Burchfield Penney, and after 10 years of planning, fundraising and construction, the new art center opened on Nov. 22, 2008. Since then, the museum has seen over 300,000
visitors from all over the world, and in 2009, travel editors of the New York Times included the Burchfield Penney Art Center as one of the “Top 44 Places in the World to Visit.” Last year, the Burchfield Penney celebrated 50 years as the Museum for Western New York Arts. Experience the museum’s golden anniversary in person by viewing the “50 in 50: Fifty Works for Fifty Years” exhibit, which chronicles Western New York’s cultural history with works from each decade from 1849 through 2017. Other current exhibits include “Community: Immigrant and Refugee Artists in Western New York,” “Glass within Glass: the Magic of the Trabucco Studio,” and Buffalo artist Michael Bosworth’s “The House has Gone Down and the Lamps are Out,” which explores rural American landscapes. Of course, the current Burchfield exhibit is a must-see: now through Nov. 26, “A Dream World of Imagination: Charles E. Burchfield’s Golden Year” portrays Burchfield’s work from 1917, which he fondly referred to as the “golden year” of his career. Plan your visit to the Burchfield Penney Art Center today! The museum, which is located on the SUNY Buffalo campus at 1300 Elmwood Avenue, is open to the public Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Thursday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m. Admission is $10 for adults, $8 for seniors and $5 for students.

Ellicottville Recognized – Again, as One of New York’s ‘Hot Spots’
Those of us who live, work, and play in Ellicottville know we pretty much have it all in terms of some of the best shops, restaurants, outdoor pursuits and lifestyle in general, you’ll find anywhere in the U.S. The Chamber of Commerce continually hosts travel writers from the North East US and Canada and it pays off. We’ve won numerous accolades from the media over the years, from consistently being ranked one of the top après destinations in the northeast by SKI magazine, to being portrayed as the ‘Aspen of the East’ by the New York Times. And now, adding to this growing list of recognition, Lake Erie Living’s annual ‘Best Of’ edition ranks Ellicottville as just one of New York’s top three ‘hot spots’ tourists need to check out sooner than later as part of their travel plans. Let’s face it, the town is in pretty respectable company alongside of The Chautauqua Institution and Chautauqua Lake. And… we’re the only four-season destination among them. Apart from the lofty recognition of being one of the state’s top destinations this year, the magazine doled out special recognition to Adventure Bound on the Fly as the Best Fly Fishing operator, thanks to their introducing such unique and innovative experiences as stand up paddle board (SUP) fly fishing.
