Sept 10. Ellicottville Historical Society Meeting

By Alicia Dziak

Labor Day weekend has come and gone, but that doesn’t mean the end of summer, and it definitely doesn’t mean the end of outdoor fun in Western New York! Outdoor enthusiasts can take advantage of all the region has to offer — whether it’s hiking, biking or just enjoying the sights of the Enchanted Mountains, you’ll find an array of opportunities to discover the great outdoors. Is the laid-back nature of hiking your thing? If so, you’re in luck! With miles of trails spanning a variety of terrain, the region has something for everyone. Head to Allegany State Park (ASP) for your choice of 18 hiking trails through New York’s largest state park. Rolling hills, forests, history, giant rock formations — you’ll find it all at ASP! Trail maps, found at both the Red House and Quaker rental offices, mark trail distances and level of difficulty, and don’t be shy about asking questions to find your ideal hike. Right along Route 219, heading south from Ellicottville, is McCarty Hill State Forest, which covers over 6,000 acres in the towns of Mansfield, Little Valley, Great Valley and Ellicottville. Part of the state forest borders both

Pumpkinville Opens Next Weekend New Pedal Car Track, Redesigned Corn Maize

By Alicia Dziak

September is here, which means endless fall fun in the Enchanted Mountains! To many, it’s just not fall until you visit Pumpkinville, a 200-acre farm in Great Valley that equates to hours and hours of family-friendly things to do! If you’re one of the thousands of people who have made Pumpkinville an annual

tradition, opening day is Saturday, Sept. 13, and you have from then until Halloween to enjoy the entertainment-laden property. As Pumpkinville’s regulars know, every year brings new things to see and do, and this year is no exception. The all-new pedal car track was built in front of the Corn Maize entrance. The attraction features tractor-themed vehicles that resemble dune buggies that offer fun for all ages. The Corn Maize, a popular attraction for years, is also new and improved. It was professionally designed by a Utah-based company and promises to be more challenging than in past years. The maze is sponsored by WYRK, whose logo is “carved” into the maze, and can be viewed from above, perhaps while enjoying See Pumpkinville Opens page 5

tooth. You will be pleasantly surprised at what is in our own backyard. Olean, the largest city in the county, has two community theatres. Olean Community Theatre, Inc., (www.OCTnow. com) uses the Cutco Theatre at the Olean Campus of Jamestown Community See It’s Show Time page 9

ECS Loses 124 Years of Dedicated Service

Reprinted from Ellicottville Central School September 2014 Newsletter

This past June, three longtime members of the ECS faculty/staff and a district bus driver closed out over one 124 years of service to the district. We have truly been blessed to have had employees like this who have dedicated so much of their professional career to our children and the Ellicottville community. To spend 42 years in one school district is quite a feat. Even more special, is the fact that

she spent another 13 years in Ellicottville as a student! Marion Polasik always challenged herself to constantly seek personal and professional improvement, which is the sign of a lifetime learner. When the new Common Core Curriculum was introduced, she embraced the changes and made sure she was prepared to assist her students and other members of the teaching staff.

Ellicottville Catches Reed’s Eye Congressman Tom Reed (NY-23) made a stop in Ellicottville on Aug. 23 to take a look at local business and building projects, and to talk about the area’s development boom. “It’s a wonderful opportunity for us to showcase Ellicottville and share what we truly are,” said Ellicottville Town Supervisor John Burrell. The group gathered at Holiday Valley for a meet-and-greet, then boarded a bus to tour the See Ellicottville Catches Reed’s Eye, page 3

Letter to the Editor Thank You from Toronto Triumph Club During the weekend of Aug. 22, 23 and 24, the Toronto Triumph Club came to your area to host their annual weekend away (The Canadian Classic). Our members were wowed! As hosts of this event, we could only wish for the reception the club received. First, thank you to Brian McFadden from the Chamber of Commerce. Brian did his job with such execution that it made our job so easy! He was able to connect us to the various organizations within town that assisted in making the weekend enjoyable for everyone. 36 small British cars – Triumphs descended on Ellicottville brining 65 people. The area opened their arms to welcome us. Thank you to the staff of The Wingate hotel for making our accommodations outstanding, to Dominic (and staff) at The Winery of Ellicottville for our tasting, and to Roger (and staff) at The Barn for a delicious meal and also to the local police. Thank you to the various merchants in town that posted “welcome” signs. Members commented on how nice it was to see the notice. Thank you to the folks who stopped by the parking lot to view our cars and chat with our members. And to the folks who just waved at us — a friendly wave means a lot! A special thank you to Ellicottville Auto Care for being on call during the weekend! The cars are all well over 40 years old and don’t run as smoothly sometimes as we wish. Our guests came from across Ontario and NY State. Everyone commented that “they will be back sometime soon to visit.” We enjoyed working with everyone on this event and from us — thank you does not seem like enough. We look forward to our next visit to town (Fall Festival!). Cheers! Dawn & Roger Elliott, Toronto Triumph Club

HoliMont and Holiday Valley, and trails connect with miles of hiking trails within the ski resorts. Joining up with McCarty State Forest is Little Rock City, one of three “rock cities” in the area — the two others are Rock City Park in Olean ( w w w. r o c k c i t y p a r k . c o m ) and Thunder Rocks in ASP (located off ASP 2 between Red House and Quaker areas). These areas boast large rock formations that create streetlike walkways below, great for a mostly shady and aweinspiring hike. For directions to Little Rock City, visit www. dec.ny.gov/lands/77184.html. If you’d prefer to go with a group, a guided hike to Little Rock City will be offered on Sept. 27. For more information about the guided hike, visit www.FingerLakesTrail.org. Another must-see for adventurous hikers is Zoar Valley, encompassing almost 3,000 acres in Gowanda featuring cliffs overlooking a gorge and waterfalls flowing into rushing whitewater. Directions to the various parking areas and trails can be found at www.dec.ny.gov/ lands/36931.html.

If hiking at a more leisurely pace is more your style, Griffis Sculpture Park is the perfect spot. Located between Ellicottville and Springville, a few miles off Route 219, the largest park of its kind in the country features a variety of hiking trails, and offers visitors numerous sculptures to check out and take in. For more information, visit www. griffispark.org. Do you like to see the trails at a faster pace, like on a mountain bike? The area’s numerous mountain biking trails offer beautiful scenery and challenging terrain. More details can be found at www. wnymba.org. Looking to satisfy your competitive side? Races of all kinds await throughout fall. On Sept. 27, the XTERRA ASP comes to Allegany State Park. The triathlon races (two distances plus a relay) include a swim through the lake, and bike and run portions along cross-country trails on the Red House side of the park, and promise to challenge any hard-core athlete. For more information, please visit www. score-this.com or email info@ score-this.com. Fall Festival weekend brings not only fun and entertainment to Ellicottville, but also chances to bike and run. On Sat., Oct. 11, the Fall Festival 5K Run kicks off from Holiday Valley. After burning

some calories and enjoying the fall foliage along the way, attendees will enjoy a post-race party at the Mountain Sports Center. For more information, visit www.heartrateup.com. On Sunday, Oct. 12, the Fall Festival Mountain Bike Race

will be held at Holiday Valley. Geared toward cyclists of all levels, the bike race promises to get your legs moving and your heart pumping. For more information, visit www. holidayvalley.com. Keep the spirit of Halloween going with the EVL Half (a half marathon), 5K run and kids’ race on Nov. 1. The races, beginning on Monroe Street right in the village, invite runners to wear costumes — a great chance to get creative and have some fun while getting in a run.

Driving bus is without a doubt one of most important and difficult jobs within the school operation. The ability to provide for the safety of everyone on the bus while maintaining the control and respect of the students is truly a challenging assignment. It is impossible to immediately replace these dedicated employees, but we are thankful that they chose Ellicottville Central School in the first place. May their retirement years be filled with good health, happiness and time to do some of those things that work prevented!

Scenes from Congressman Tom Reed’s Visit to Ellicottville • Photos by Jennie Acklin

“When the working day is done. Girls they want to have fun. Oh girls just want to have fun.” Cyndi Lauper would be proud of party girls 25-year-old Lilia Ratmanski from Whitby, Ontario and 26-year-old Milana Muzikante from Vaughan. Man, did those girls want to have fun or what?!? Last week, these two wild and crazy chicks boarded a Sunwing charter fight in Toronto bound for Cuba and mistook the “vacant” sign on the washroom door for “vacation!” Some time after takeoff, with the click of a dead bolt, the short blonde Lilia and the tall redhead Milana turned a rear section washroom into a small but hoppin’ little nightclub. Oh yeah, the all-girl spring break party was on! Fun, fun, fun long before they would reach the Cuban sun meant drinking most of their duty-free alcohol in the plane’s bathroom, straight from the bottle. Imagine a meeting of the Mile High Club sponsored by Smirnoff. These two friends and nurses may have gotten away with the cocktail party in the can except the cigarette they were smoking set off the smoke detectors, drawing the attention of passengers and the flight crew. Athough the party was pretty much over once the two tipsy travellers were escorted back to their seats, the inflight entertainment was just about to begin. Nobody is saying what triggered the next event – maybe they had their sights set on the same cute flight attendant or one of them forgot to bring snacks and party favours into the toilet – at any rate, they decided to duke it out. So, in front of several hundred passengers, mostly sober and not engrossed in the inflight movie,

Lilia and Milana got into a hairpulling, eye-gouging brawl. At some point, the Sunwing crew intervened and broke up this screaming, cursing catfight, much to the dismay of a few guys in the back who normally have to pay a cover charge to watch this kind of girl-on-girl roughhousing. Consequently, the Sunwing pilot, Captain Peter Partypooper, alerted South Carolina air traffic control, who passed the complaint on to DEN (Domestic Event Network) who, in turn, alerted NORAD (the Northern American Aerospace Command), who scrambled two CF-18 fighter jets out of Quebec at a cost of $16,750 per hour to accompany the charter plane back to Pearson Airport in Toronto. So, what started as vodka shooters in a cramped toilet quickly became a military operation involving two nations with jet fighters running interference between the Sunwing plane and tall buildings. Can you imagine that exchange? “Red alert! Red alert? Russian MiG fighters testing our air space again? No. A terrorist hijacking? Not exactly. What then? Two very drunk flussies in a catfight on a holiday charter. We’re all over it!” Then one of the women – I’m betting it was the blonde who looks like she could scratch the eyes out of Steven Seagal in a dark alley on the wrong side of Chicago – made a threat against the airline. Nobody’s revealing exactly what was said, but let’s face it, the only weapon this girl had left was a full bladder. Besides illegal smoking mischief and uttering threats, these two nurses face charges of endangering the safety of an aircraft, which carries a maximum sentence of life in prison. Yeah,

that’ll sober you up in a hurry. Both party girls were released on $5,000 bail, which I’m guessing was posted by Charlie Sheen. He’s insisting on house arrest at his place. “I’m shocked,” said Lilia’s mom, outside the courthouse in Toronto. “She doesn’t drink. She never smokes.” That left the door open to spitting, biting and fighting in public. Charges of assault with deadly force on a large bottle of vodka have been dropped. The total cost of the nurses’ night out could be as high as $50,000, and a spokesperson for Sunwing has already said they will be going after the culprits for damages. And wouldn’t you know it? They had packed beach bikinis and party dresses and short shorts and tank tops, but nothing that would look fashionable in jail. However, the end to this drunken display of air rage wasn’t a total disaster for the two battlers. The rest of the passengers cheered and clapped loudly as the duo were escorted off the plane in handcuffs, which made Sunwing officials believe that they just have to come up with better inflight movies. Travel tip to partiers headed for Varadero, Cuba – the resort is all inclusive. The plane? Not so much. For comments, ideas and copies of The True Story of Wainfleet, go to www.williamthomas.ca

Nonprofit Leaders to ‘Collaborate’ at Fourth Annual Nonprofit Networking Day OLEAN, N.Y. — Keynote speaker Robert Gioia, John R. Oishei Foundation president, will illustrate how participants from different nonprofits can work together in his address “Cultivating Successful Collaborations” at the Cattaraugus Region Community Foundation’s fourth annual Nonprofit Networking Day, Friday, Nov. 7, 2014. “The Community Foundation is proud to once again be able to bring together members from our area’s nonprofits in the spirit of learning together, networking and finding new opportunities for collaboration,” said Karen Niemic Buchheit, CRCF executive director. “This event continues to help existing and emerging nonprofit organizations strengthen their operations and build capacity.” Co-sponsored by St. Bonaventure University and the Greater Olean Area Chamber of Commerce, Nonprofit Networking Day is slated 8 a.m.–1 p.m. at St. Bonaventure University’s Quick Center for the Arts.

Comedian Bob Newhart To Perform October 11

During Lucy Town Half Marathon & 5K Weekend

Representing the award winners for the 2014 Taste of Ellicottville are, from left, Chris Hastreiter, of Holiday Valley, winning best drink; Katy Arena, of Katy’s Café, winning Best Overall; and Laurie Barrett, of The Birdwalk, for Best Dessert. The awards were chosen by those in attendance at the Taste of Ellicottville through paper ballot. ELLICOTTVILLE, N.Y. — By all accounts, the 29th Annual Taste of Ellicottville, presented by Sysco, was a great success! The 18 establishments represented are reporting a Saturday attendance that rivaled full weekends in the past, and a Sunday that was not too far behind. With it all said and done, one area restaurant rose to the top, in the minds of the best critics in the world, our visitors. Katy’s Café was named Best

in Show. The dish that set them apart, in the mind of the public, was the Blue Mushroom Soup. Taking home the Best Dessert was The Birdwalk’s Cobbler, in blueberry or peach. Best drink was Holiday Valley’s Wild Berry Arnold Palmer. “This was our biggest year, ever,” Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Brian McFadden said. “It’s always nice to see the streets packed

with so many people enjoying what Ellicottville has to offer. Not just our restaurants, but our retail shops enjoyed a great turnout for the Taste of Ellicottville, and area lodging had a very strong weekend as well.” Plans for next year’s event have already started. The 30th anniversary edition of the Taste of Ellicottville will be held Aug. 15 and 16, 2015.

Eddy-Telaak Farm Highlight of Mansfield Historical Open House Sept. 13 Mansfield Area Historical Society is conducting an Open House on Saturday, Sept. 13. The building will be open at 10 a.m. until noon for you to visit and view collections and artifacts as well as display boards of our local history. The highlight of day will be focused on the Telaak Farm located on Hinman Hollow in the town of Mansfield. The Eddy family was abundant in numbers during the early settlement of this township. Therefore, it may be of no surprise that the Telaak Farm can be traced back to Eddy ownership in the 1800s. Several farms throughout Cattaraugus County have been honored as “century farms,” meaning their history can be traced back over 100 years owned by the same family from one generation to

another. What the Mansfield Area Historical Society found unique in tracing the history of the Telaak Farm is that it appears this farm has been in continuous operation as a working farm for more than 100 years. In many of the early years, the farm was under the management of members of the Eddy family, and when sold, farming continued with Fred Telaak. The Telaak family has continued the fine tradition of farming the land in the rich valley lands in the town of Mansfield. Join us at the museum as an Eddy descendant, Town of Great Valley Historian Marilyn Eddy Siperek discloses some of the past of this farm with the research she is excited to share with all of you. We will enjoy a look into past farming

life through brief passages from the 1887 journal of Flora Eddy. The brief snippets of rural life during that era leave us wanting to know more. The museum will have an additional item or two of the “old farm” implements on display for this event. The visit at the museum at 7691 Toad Hollow will conclude by 11:30 a.m. You will be invited to enjoy a sample of some of the local yogurt made on an Amish Farm and sold under the label of Otto Farms. By 12:30 p.m., the group is expected on the premises of the Telaak Farm for a tour hosted by Don Telaak. Milking begins about that time and you will be able to watch as that chore begins while Don tells of the present day use of the old farm.

Letter to the Editor

“The Long Way Home” by Louise Penny

“Turning Coins into Gold” Fund Raise for Nana’s House Nana´s House, located in Tepic, Mexico, is a non-profit organization that supports itself only by donations and takes in abandoned, abused and trafficked children. “My heart’s desire was to give rejected and abandoned children a loving home. They desperately desire what sent them to us in the first place: love from wounded souls that have no idea how to love. They rage, scream and fight us until they accept what we have to offer,” said Mary Jo Hansen, founder and director of Nana’s House. Spending time with these children and getting to know them is a gift in itself. This past winter we saw laughs, smiles and great memories. We spent several days with them during our last winter stay in Tepic. Tom, Sofia and Diego played soccer and football with them a couple of times a week. We took them out on hikes, field trips and celebrated birthdays. It is so wonderful to see how they are growing and being transformed. They are so well behaved and very appreciative of doing different activities outside of home. Roberto is an 11-year-old boy who has really struggled in life. It ends up he’s quite as an artist and has amazing building and mechanical abilities. He’s headed in the right direction. In México, we celebrate the 15th birthday for girls in a big way. Not only do they get to wear a brand new beautiful dress, but there is also a celebration and ceremony with family and friends. Itzi´s from Nana´s House has been one of the most touching ceremonies I have been to. One of Roberto’s works. I have always been to 15th birthdays were the birthday girl is with her parents, her brothers and sisters, her family and, of course, friends. This time it was a bit different, because only her brother Oscar was there as a family member. However, she was surrounded by her new family and new friends for about the last four years from Nana´s House and school. The speech was amazing. Itzi was abandoned by her mother, abused and trafficked by her father (both in jail). She was rescued four years ago. She is a smart, great student, polite and gracious young lady with a much brighter future. Nana’s House continues to rescue abandoned, abused and trafficked children from the streets of Tepic, México. We continue to reach out for financial help as we receive children almost every week. We have three homes that are at maximum capacity. We need larger homes, support for their education, sports training, daily meals, expenses and medical care. Nana’s House supports itself only by donations. Your donation of any amount makes an amazing difference. Please partner with us and help us rescue more children by reaching our $10,000 goal by Oct 17, 2014. All donations are tax deductible. Please send your donation by mail to Nana´s House c/o Lilian Dirito at 4721 Creek View Dr., Great Valley, NY 14741, or drop it off at Katy´s Cafe or Nature’s Remedy in Ellicottville starting Saturday, Sept. 6. By sending your donation, you will be entered into a giveaway bowl to win different prizes on Oct. 17. This event will be at Katy´s Cafe on Washington Street from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m., and at Nature´s Remedy from 6 to 8 p.m. in downtown Ellicottville. Also, please visit us at Fall Festival at our booth next to Roberto and his sister Karla receiving a pillowNature´s Remedy and Gado Gado. case with their names engraved, donated by Believer´s Chapel church from Allegany, N.Y., last Christmas.

With thanks, Lilian Dirito

Happily retired in the village of Three Pines, Armand Gamache, former Chief Inspector of Homicide with the Sûreté du Québec, has found a peace he’d only imagined possible. On warm summer mornings he sits on a bench holding a small book, The Balm in Gilead, in his large hands.

W While Gamache doesn’t talk about his wounds and his balm, Clara tells him about abou hers. Peter, her artist husband, has failed to come home. Failed to show up as promised p on the first anniversary of their separation. She wants Gamache’s help to find him. Having finally found sanctuary, Gamache feels a near revulsion at th the thought of leaving Three Pines.

Together T they journey deeper and deeper into Québec, and deeper and deeper into the soul of Peter Morrow. A man so desperate to recapture his fame as an artist, art he would sell that soul. And may have. The journey takes them further and further from Three Pines, to the very mouth of the great St. Lawrence River. To an area so desolate, so damned, the first mariners called it the land God gave to Cain. And there they discover the terrible damage done by a sin-sick soul.

Health & Fitness: 5 Exercises to Prevent Injuries

By Kim Duke neta & afaa Certified Trainer

Exercise offers a wealth of benefits. When you exercise you are giving your body that much-needed ability to move and burn calories, increase muscle mass, rev up your metabolism and increase your sex drive. And whether you want to believe it or not, exercise actually energizes you. But, one of the greatest benefits of consistent exercise is injury prevention. No matter what age you are, studies have proven over and over that an exercise program that includes cardio, strength training and stretching will not only help to strengthen you but stabilize you as well. There are two classes of injuries: traumatic and cumulative. Traumatic injuries are those accidents that happen in sport

or daily life, such as rolling your ankle on a trail run or crashing your bike on the morning commute. Cumulative injuries relate to tissue damage that occurs over time as a result of repetitive strain. These types of injuries creep up and may be a function of poor posture, faulty movement patterns or improper training. The best practice for preventing injury is General Physical Preparedness (GPP). GPP training is the first concept to understand when talking about injury prevention, especially for trauma. It means maintaining a baseline of fitness so that you can respond to physical challenges without harm. The following list has the five main GPP areas you need to improve: Flexibility: Ensure that all major joints, including your spine, have full range of motion and sufficient muscle length. Strength: Keep all large muscles and surrounding stabilizers conditioned and ready to react at a moment’s notice. Agility: How is your reaction time and general coordination? If properly honed, you can avoid crashing your bike as you

swerve to avoid a pedestrian. Run an agility ladder or tire array twice a month minimally. Balance: Can you stay vertical over uneven terrain or when carrying an awkwardly shaped object? Single leg medicine ball tosses with a partner are a great balance challenge. Do three sets times 60 seconds on each leg. Power: Do you have the speed to move out of harm’s way in a hurry? Better hope so if you need to dodge a vehicle while on your morning run. A burpee plus a 15-yard sprint is an excellent combo for power generation. Do five in a row at the end of your next workout. Combining these five training techniques will go beyond being beneficial for injury prevention. These techniques will also create a solid and strong athlete, and help you function more safely in everyday life. If by chance you are reading this article and you are presently injured or rehabbing from an injury, then you’ll want to consult with a doctor before attempting these exercises — and read my next article for more information.

College, as well as local high school auditoriums for its performances. It has an equipment and costume rental program and is one of New York State’s most awardwinning theatre groups, offering live entertainment since 1979. The Olean Theatre Workshop (www.oleanworkshop.org) offers quality on-stage and behind-the-scenes experiences to encourage interest in the dramatic arts, from the stage of a lovely old renovated church at 702 Washington St. to the grassy lawn of a park right across the street. In nearby Bradford, Pa., the Bradford Creative & Performing Arts Center (BCPAC) — pronounced “backpack” — uses the Bromeley Family Theatre in Blaisdell Hall at the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford, as well as the Bradford Area High School auditorium for their performances. In addition, there is the Bradford Little Theatre (BLT), which dubbed their 18th season “Eighteen and Eclectic” and are working to secure a more permanent performance space. Across the New York border in Salamanca, the Ray Evans Seneca Theatre seems back in business after a fouryear hiatus. The old theatre was recently renovated and transformed by the Cattaraugus County Center for the Performing Arts and reopened

in November 2013. The theatre just finished its second production, “Rent,” which director Todd Wagner, and the surrounding community, deemed a success. Continuing north past Ellicottville, the village of Springville presents another theatrical gem, housed in the historic Baptist Church of Springville. Originally called the Springville Players, the Springville Center for the Arts (www.springvillearts. org) has a year-round program, with the summer, for the most part, dedicated to the kids. A multi-arts center, they just announced their season’s offerings beginning on Sept. 19. In addition to their musical offerings and art exhibits, he says they typically offer one drama, one comedy and a musical per season. They have just completed casting for their upcoming comedy production due Nov. 13. In addition to these nonprofit, volunteer community theatres, many high schools in the county pull out all the stops, a little later in the year, to bring you their version of some of the best plays from Broadway. We’ll do our best to keep up with their programming schedules. As Mr. Shakespeare has told us, “The play’s the thing,” so tune in next week to read about the delicious play offerings this autumn. They are sure to whet your appetite.

This half-day program will be held Monday, Sept. 29 from 8:30 a.m. to noon. Cornell University Extension Vegetable Specialist Darcy Telenko will be leading the workshop.

Hands-on examples will be

used if available. Pesticide Recertification Credits have been applied for pending NYSDEC approval for categories 1a, 10, 21, 23, 24.
