ing Broadway musicals for younger performers. At the end of theater camp week, at 2 p.m. Aug. 5, the students will show off what they have learned in a free live performance at the theater. The music camp is funded with a grant from the Statewide Regrant Program of the state Council on the Arts. On Aug. 13, Gowanda’s Gabrielle McCormack will be presenting a vocal recital at 7 p.m. The show promises to be a night of French Melodie, a.k.a. art song, German Lieder, a.k.a. poetry set to music, and musical theater.
In September, the theater hosts the first of a series of larger concert events. Wail On, a tribute to Waylon Jennings and The Outlaws of Country, arrives at the theater on Sept. 17. Tickets for that show go on sale on Aug. 1. On Oct. 1, the theater will stage a Tom Petty tribute band. World-renowned theater organist Dennis James returns to the Hollywood to begin the second round of the Hollywood Silent Movie Series on Nov. 5. This series presents classic silent movies with organ accompaniment similar to the way they were originally shown.
To enrich the experience, James also gives some historical background information related to the films and/or actors involved in each presentation. The Hollywood Theater is also continuing its private film party rentals. Subject to theater availability, local groups of between 10 and 20 people can rent the theater for a movie screening. In most cases, the group brings in a DVD of their own to have shown using the facilities at the theater. For more information, visit gowandahollywoodtheater.com.

WATER CHESTNUT, INVASIVE SPECIES ARE PRIORITY OF ALLIANCE PROGRAMS The Chadakoin River is one of Chautauqua County’s most valuable environmental, economic, and recreational resources. It is home to a diverse ecosystem of many different plants and animals, and provides residents, businesses, and visitors with unique opportunities for fishing, biking, birding, kayaking, walking, and more. In order to ensure that these opportunities are available now and in the future, improving the health and usability of the Chadakoin River, and Chautauqua Lake at large, is a priority for all stakeholders. Water chestnut and other invasive plant species that have the potential to negatively impact local waterbodies are the focus of several collaborative programs in 2022. Efforts centered on the prevention, early-detection, monitoring, and removal of these problem species are underway by the Chautauqua Lake and Watershed Management Alliance and several of its Member organizations via the Alliance’s fourth annual Consolidated Local Funding Program. This important work is a continuation of previous programs aimed at keeping the lake and watershed free from emerging nuisance species of aquatic plants. The Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy’s (CWC) Aquatic Invasive Species Early Detection Volunteer Taskforce took to the water for the first time this summer on June 22. Alliance staff joined Twan Leenders, CWC’s Ecological Restoration Manager, for a kayak survey focused on finding and removing water chestnut from the lower basin of Chautauqua Lake and the Chadakoin. This invasive species is identified by its small triangular leaves that form patches of rosettes on the surface of the water. Water chestnut plants flower in July, and reproduce via sharp nutlets which can cling to animals and
spread easily through currents. Each seed can be viable for up to 12 years and produce approximately 10 to 15 plants, which in turn can produce up to 20 seeds each. This plant’s reproductive advantages, potential for rapid spread, and tendency to impair the ecosystem and recreation all make it a top priority for targeted removal. Before the taskforce even entered the water, a water chestnut plant was spotted near the kayak launch in Celoron. This indicates that the plant may be spreading from locations where it has been found and removed in the past, or that other populations exist that thus far have escaped detection. Rapid response programs targeting this species stretch back to at least 2012, with more than 200 plants being removed from the Chadakoin in 2021. After three hours of surveying with three kayaks, the first taskforce paddle of the year removed over 120 water chestnut plants and recorded their locations on w w w.imapinvasives.org. This platform is used by six states including New York and Pennsylvania to track observations of invasive species in near real time. Professionals and the public alike can get involved by reporting any invasive plants you might encounter in the lake or watershed. Early detection and rapid response removal work in tandem to address imminent threats posed to the lake by new invasive species. The Audubon Community Nature Center (ACNC) has been leading an invasive species rapid response removal program on the lake since 2020, regularly working in the Chadakoin River to complement the early detection programs currently led by CWC and in the past led by the Roger Tory Peterson Institute. “Audubon Community Nature Center has been performing extensive water chestnut removal at their own
facility located on Riverside Road since 2015,” said Audubon Executive Director Leigh Rovegno. “Since then, we have seen a severe reduction in the number of plants, however, they continue to pose a significant ecological threat. We have been thrilled to partner with members of the Alliance, CWC, the Western New York Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management, and other participating organizations to ensure that water chestnut does not continue to spread throughout the watershed.” Following the first taskforce event of the year and the significant amount of water chestnut removed, partners quickly coordinated to plan future surveys and response needs. ACNC’s rapid response removal team returned to the Chadakoin River within days to remove approximately 200 additional water chestnut plants and search other nearby areas. “By definition, non-native invasive species negatively impact the native flora and fauna that has long inhabited the area that they only just arrived in. By catching these harmful newcomers before they become established, we can minimize their impact and help protect the health and sustainability of our ecologically sensitive wetlands, rivers and lakes,” said Twan Leenders of CWC. “Chautauqua Lake and the Chadakoin River support several at-risk species, ranging from bald eagles and osprey to spiny softshell turtles and rare aquatic plants. Sadly, all of those wonderful assets and the thriving ecosystem that supports them, are constantly under attack from new environmental threats, like invasive species. It is in everyone’s best interest to keep a watchful eye on these potential intruders, while you’re out there enjoying the beauty of the lake. Observing and reporting environmental concerns is arguably one of the best things anyone can

In addition to water chestnut, surveys are also expected to target the invasive alga starry stonewort as well as the invasive plant species brittle naiad. Other CWC programs also target invasive plant species found on land, such as the hemlock woolly adelgid and tree of heaven, the latter has been found at locations in the City of Jamestown and can cause a number of ecological problems.
Working in parallel with these removal programs is another Alliance Member project aimed at preventing invasive species from entering or escaping the lake. The Chautauqua Lake Association’s Watercraft Steward Program provides local prevention efforts by stationing stewards at public launches on the lake and elsewhere in Chautauqua County. Stewards meet with boaters entering the lake, check for any signs of invasive species, discuss prevention protocols, and catalogue important information. Watercraft stewards often make a point of telling boaters to clean, drain, and dry watercraft, as this is one of the best ways to prevent aquatic invasive species from spreading. Prevention and early-detection programs both target species that are not yet widespread and well established. This relatively small-scale work requires fewer resources than more costly management programs that have to be undertaken once invasive

“The Chadakoin River serves as Chautauqua Lake’s outlet and is a vital area for people, plants, and animals. In order to make sure it continues to develop in the right direction, it is a priority to tackle problems like water chestnut when they are more manageable,” said Alliance Executive Di-

weed and Eurasian milfoil in Chautauqua Lake, it makes a lot to sense to invest in early detection and rapid response,” Chautauqua County Watershed Coordinator Dave McCoy said. “The lake would have been much easier to maintain if these species had not become established.” In addition to these locally led efforts, State and regional groups also perform important work on and around the lake including the Western New York Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management and the New York State Department of
rector Randall Perry. “A big thank you to our local charitable foundations and the Alliance Members involved in this collaborative invasive species work, which will benefit the lake and river in the long-term.” These local programs have been made possible thanks to generous funding through the Alliance provided by The Lenna Foundation, the Ralph C. Sheldon Foundation, and the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation. For more information please contact Alliance Communications Coordinator Jay Young at jyoung@ chautauquaalliance.org.

How to keep gardens safe in summer heat waves Summer is a season to relax and enjoy the warm weather. Basking in the summer sun is a great way to relax, but only when the temperatures are safe. Summer heat waves can compromise the health of human beings as well as their pets. Gardening enthusiasts also may need to go the extra mile to keep their plants and gardens from wilting under harsh summer sun. Extreme heat stress can be very harmful to plants. The online gardening resource Gardening Know How notes that some plants can withstand summer heat waves better than others. For example, succulents conserve water in their leaves, helping them to withstand heat waves when the dog days of summer arrive. But succulents are unique, and many plants will require a little extra help to withstand a heat wave. • Take a proactive approach with mulch. Gardeners need not wait until the heat arrives to protect their plants from searing summer heat. The sustainable living experts at Eartheasy recommend utilizing light-colored mulch during heat waves. Such mulch will reflect the sunlight and help to maintain cooler surface soil conditions. Eartheasy even notes that grass clippings, once they’ve turned from green to light brown, can make for the perfect mulch to protect plants from the heat. Clippings also are free, making them a cost-effective solution.
B&S
• Water wisely. The horticultural experts at Yates Gardening note that water only helps plants withstand heat waves if it’s applied effectively. If water is only applied in short bursts and not long enough so it can penetrate all the way to the root zone, roots will then stay near the surface. In such instances, roots will dry out during a heat wave and plants won’t make it through the season. Timing also is essential when watering. Eartheasy recommends watering in the morning to avoid heat scald and also ensure as little water is lost to evaporation as possible. When watering during a heat wave, do so by hand rather than through a sprinkler. Hand watering allows gardeners to direct all of the water onto the plants that need it most during a heat wave. • Let your plants pitch in. When planting new plants, it’s important that gardeners recognize it takes time for these plants to establish their roots so they’re strong enough to withstand heat waves. In the meantime, strategic planting can help them make it through their first heat waves unscathed. Eartheasy notes that planting by taller, more established plants can provide new plants with shade that can help them survive heat waves. Just make sure new plants can still get the sun they need to thrive. Heat waves are inevitable and potentially harmful to gardens. Gardeners can help their plants beat the heat in various ways.

Opera House Cinema Series to Present Brian and Charles Fredonia, NY — The next film in the Cinema Series at the 1891 Fredonia Opera House Performing Arts Center is the quirky British comedy “Brian and Charles.” It will be screened Sat., July 23, and Tues., July 26 , at 7:30 p.m. Brian is a lonely inventor in rural Wales who spends his days building unconventional contraptions that seldom work. Undeterred by his lack of success, Brian attempts his biggest project yet. Three days, a washing machine, and various spare parts later, he’s invented Charles, an artificially intelligent robot who learns English from a dictionary and has an obsession with cabbages. What follows is a humorous and entirely heartwarming story about loneliness, friendship, family, finding love, and letting go. Randy Myers, in the San Jose Mercury News,
DISCOUNT TIRES
calls the film “one of the most unexpected heart-warmers of the summer.” Deborah Ross, in The Spectator, calls it “a goofy non-taxing delight … and do stay for the credits. They’re a hoot.” Mark Kermode in the Observer (UK), says the film “has homemade charm to spare, proving delightfully ridiculous but also poignant.” James Berardinelli, on ReelViews, says “it’s hard not to enjoy something like ‘Brian and Charles,’ where the core themes are ones of friendship and learning to live with one another’s foibles.” Rated PG for language, smoking and mild violence, “Brian and Charles” runs one hour, 19 minutes. Tickets are available at the door and the night of each screening. A book of 10 movie passes is available at the door or online at www.fredopera.org. For more information, call the Opera House Box Office
at 716-679-1891. The Opera House Cinema Series is sponsored by Lake Shore Savings Bank. In addition, Opera House programming is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. The Opera House is equipped with individualized closed captioning eyeglasses for the deaf as well as with assistive listening headsets for the hearing-impaired. Simply request one from any
