A Look Back: The Ladies at Home during Wartime

By Jolene Hawkins

Looking back to the ladies who were on the home front during the conflicts we have had, what did they do to help the soldiers?

As far back as the Civil War, we see where ladies helped to raise money for the war effort. They organized raffles and fairs and used the money to help pay for war supplies. They managed the home and farms while the husbands and brothers went off to fight.

In the camps, they washed clothes, mended uniforms, provided blankets and cooked for them. Some help to write letters home for the soldiers.

We can not forget women such as Dorothea Dix and Clara Barton who tended to the sick and wounded men and assisted the doctors where they could.

Mary Walker was the only woman who officially worked as a Union doctor during the Civil War. She was

appeals by aggrieved persons concerning the decision. About 40 community members were in attendance Monday for the appeals hearing.

“It’s wonderful to see so many people here interested in our village center, interested in historic preservation and it’s something I never thought I’d see,” Krebs said.

“Everybody in this room has a single, united interest and that is to make our village center a better place.”

Springville resident Murray Regan addressed the village trustees first, saying the certificate of appropriateness should be considered invalid because it is contrary to what he said the historic preservation commission’s mission is.

“This certificate of appropriateness serves only the interest of a small group,” he added. “The village also has goals, a vision and a working, ongoing developed plan.”

Regan mentioned the Springville Center for the Arts, the Lucy Bensley Center and Shuttleworth as preservation projects done in the downtown historic district that saved historic sites.

“The trustees must recindicate,” he said of the appeal. “This is not the path to what they want to attain.”

Seth Wochensky, director of the Springville Center for the Arts, said when he walks through the village center, he is reminded of the changes in the downtown. He said he felt there was a failure in the process of how the certificate was granted and disagreed with the proposed project.

During World War I a push to join the Red Cross was in the paper, and each little town had its own unit.

“It would be very difficult for the village to take a stance on another property they wanted to preserve when this was approved,” he said.

Wochensky said while he would agree with a project that aligns with the village’s guidelines for historic preservation, construction of a parking lot conflicts with the process and spirit of the village master plan and historic preservation.

“I just wonder if we’re rushing into something that we’ll regret later on,” he added.

Keith Clark, lead pastor of Springville Crossing, said when thinking of the historical area, part of the church’s goal is to keeping the Joylan Theater a jewel in the downtown and the plan for a parking lot next to it would benefit the community.

“It’s not just a blacktop driveway,” he added. “We’re incorporating green space around the whole perimeter. … Phase II would be to add onto the Joylan to create a larger welcoming area.”

Clark said the church followed the process as they were instructed, supplying everything to the commission that was asked and received approval. He said they began moving forward and it would be difficult to backtrack.

When Dave Batterson, chair of the Historic Preservation Commission, addressed the village board, he said the commission did not authorize demolition but merely the next step in application of demolition if the village would allow it.

Batterson said studies were done on the

buildings in question and were considered beyond repair. He said letters of code violation had also been sent to the properties’ owners several times. However, he said the commission was also concerned about some of the plans proposed for the project.

“We were stuck right here during our last meeting,” Batterson said. “Each one of us sat there going, ‘I don’t know if this is the decision we want to make,’ but time was becoming a situation.”

After public comment, the Board of Trustees deliberated based on the record before them and the comments from the hearing.

Mayor Krebs said one of the primary reasons for their decision was the state of the application, which was incomplete in many sections and contained some unclear information.

“The Historic Preservation Commission did a decent job at trying to guide the applicant to what was required to fulfill this application,” said Trustee Alan Chamberlin.

“It’s in my belief that in no way should the certificate of appropriateness been issued.”

Trustee Kim Pazzuti agreed, adding that the commission had to follow the guidelines to make the right decision and it’s something they shouldn’t have felt rushed into doing.

“I know it puts everybody in a tough position, and I don’t think that’s our intension,” said Trustee Nils Wikman.

“If you look at the required items on the application, it doesn’t go into the scope necessary.”

Fall colors the worst in more than 30 years, expert says

Photo by Rick Miller This photo overlooking the Cattaraugus Creek taken Oct. 19 shows little to no change in color of the leaves well into the peak time of seeing color in the hills of the region.

“These are the worst fall colors I’ve ever seen,” Don Leopold, a botany professor at SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry, told the Tribune News Service last week.

“This is the most disappointing fall.”

From leaves falling while still deep green to muted colors and delayed changes, Leopold echoed sentiments of leaf peepers statewide this fall.

“It’s like they’re in suspended animation,” he said.

The culprit, Leopold said, is a trio of weather patterns that conspired to keep trees greener longer — a warmer September and October extended the growing season, while a lack of sun in recent weeks has also hampered changes.

The warmer weather was quite noticeable in Springville.

According to records compiled at the Route 39 Swan Pond site, Springville tied a record high of 84 on Oct. 8 and 9, initially set in 1971. The temperature on Oct. 10 was near the record, with a high of 82.

Since then, temperatures have cooled down, but few days have gone by without rain. The village had a recorded 8.5 inches of precipitation at the end of October, including about an inch of snow.

Foliage Network, which tracks foliage color changes across the Northeast, noted that the high temperatures as seen at the beginning of October and too much rain

can mute the colors of the season.

“Ideally, the best foliage occurs when autumn days are mild and the evenings are cool and crisp, but not below freezing,” the network’s website states.

“However, if daytime temperatures are too warm for a relatively long period of time in the fall, the colors may be less intense. The foliage season may also last one to two weeks longer. Frost tends to inhibit the production of anthocyanin, a pigment producing various shades of red.”

Several major storms have swept through the area in the last month, which while bringing rain, have also brought high winds on several occasions. More storms have continued to soak the area and bring down leaves.

“Very windy conditions, like those observed during and after storms, cause the leaves to drop, sometimes before full color has been reached,” the website states. “Therefore, calm winds are most favored during the foliage season.”

The season is past its peak locally, according to the weekly fall foliage report published by the New York Department of Economic Development’s iloveny.com website. Peak foliage is expected in Steuben and Livingston counties this weekend, however, and Pennsylvania spotters report the Northern Tier is also past peak.

Winter’s Presence show planned for Nov. 24

Springville Chamber of Commerce names Place executive director

By Kellen M. Quigley

Within the walls of the Lucy Bensley Center and on the village streets, a familiar face with a new title is working with Springville businesses and organizations to help promote the community.

The Springville Area Chamber of Commerce recently named Rich Place as its executive director. Place, a native of West Valley, has a familiarity with the Springville area, which helped him transition smoothly into his role.

“It’s been nice to be knowledgeable about the area and be able to share that knowledge with people that are asking questions,” he said. “I already have relationships with a lot of people that I’ve been working with.

That’s already helped in the first few weeks and it’s only going to get better.”

HIRED IN October, Place said he’s spent the past few weeks figuring out exactly what the chamber does and could be doing while carrying on the daily duties of an executive director.

“Everything from looking for a place to hold an event to looking for an address or phone number for a business they can’t find anywhere else,” he said.

Although not familiar with the day-to-day operations, Place said he looked at what he had to do at chamber going forward, taking the job at hand and put it in three different phases.

Phase I, Place said, is organizing and perfecting the visible things already established, such as the chamber website, its social media accounts and the office itself. He said while he’s spent time over the past few weeks cleaning the office and updating the chamber’s Facebook and Twitter, most of his time has gone toward redesigning the website.

“Those three things, the office, the website and social media, are things out in the community and

things people are seeing,” he said.

Phase II in Place’s plan concerns looking at what programs the chamber already offers and, with the board, deciding which ones they want to keep as is, keep and improve upon or get rid of altogether.

“In the month of November, that’s going to be my primary goal,” he said. “People are always asking what the chamber does for you, and this step is going to be figuring that out so we can attract new members.”

The third phase, which Place said will begin in a few months after the first two phases are done, would be finding new programs and benefits to offer chamber members.

“I’m very excited about that step, but first we have to shore up what we are already doing,” he explained. “Becoming knowledgeable about these programs and benefits like the back of my hand so I can go out and both attract new members and of course serve the members we already have.”

As a graduate of West Valley Central School in 2005 and then St. Bonaventure University in 2009, Place Began his journalism career at the Post-Journal in Jamestown. Since then, he worked with Bradford Publishing Company,

holding positions at The Salamanca Press, The Gowanda Press, Ellicottville Times and, most recently, Springville Times.

That degree in communications and experience in newspapers helped make the transition to chamber director easier, Place said.

“I jokingly can’t decide if this is a different field or not,” he explained. “Obviously, it’s a different field than newspapers, but it involves a ton of communication … so I have a lot of the skills needed in that department to help promote the business and market the business.”

Along with hiring Place, the chamber recently named Joe Pillittere as its new president. Place said it’s thrilling to have a new director and president at the same time with the support of a chamber board that is energetic and motivated to promote Springville.

“It’s great to be a part of that team,” he said. “Although I’m the director, there’s an entire team of people that are behind the chamber. …

Hold on tight, because it’s going to be an exciting ride going into 2019.”

Looking ahead, Place said transforming the chamber into a consistent

and reliable entity for the community to look to and benefit from is a primary goal. One of the ways he said he hopes to do that is bringing back some things the chamber offered previously as well as starting new ones.

From bringing back the chamber newsletter to regularly updating the website with events, news and opportunities, Place said there are a plethora of duties the community expects a chamber to do and he is more than happy to offer and expand on them.

“The whole purpose of the chamber is to serve the business community and subsequently also promote the community as a whole,” he said. “If the chamber can serve as a hub, it creates a great team of business owners and community residents who want to see this area thrive.”

The Springville Area Chamber of Commerce is located at the Lucy Bensley Center, 23 N. Buffalo St. Office hours are Tuesday and Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Place can be contacted at 592-4746 or director@ springvillechamber.com.

East Otto Country artists host Holiday Open House

By Deb Everts

Art lovers from all over the area had the opportunity to shop for unique, one-of-a-kind pottery pieces, as well as original watercolor and colored pencil paintings, when the East Otto Country Associates hosted their 32nd annual Holiday Open House weekend Nov. 3–4.

The open house featured Elliott and Michael Hutten of HogShed Studio Pottery and Robin Zefers Clark of Brookside Studio Watercolors who welcomed the public to their studios.

For over 36 years, the Huttons have been producing functional and decorative stoneware out of Hog-Shed Studio Pottery. Elliott creates each of her pottery pieces with consistency and craftsmanship by hand with a potter’s wheel or slab roller and simple tools. New this year was an assortment of 2018 Holiday Ornaments.

Over the past two years, Elliott and HogShed Studio Pottery have received some welldeserved recognition.

In 2017, she won “First Place in Clay” at the Allentown Art Show, and the following year, she was recognized by the Cattaraugus County Arts Council as the 2018 Distinguished Artist of the Year.

“Many of our customers have become good friends throughout the years, so I look forward to each Holiday Open House as a chance to see old friends and make new ones,” she

Artist Robin Zefers Clark and her golden retriever, Cutter, greet visitors at her studio where she creates original watercolor paintings, portraits and commissioned works.

said. “I am constantly amazed at how many people return year after year to add to their pottery collections and purchase gifts for others.”

Hog-Shed Studio Pottery is located at 8420 Maples Road. Call 257-9549 or 244-2967 before coming to be sure they are open. To learn more, visit online at myhogshedstudiopottery. com or Facebook.

Local watercolor artist Robin Zefers Clark works out of Brookside Studio Watercolors, just down the road from Hog-Shed. Robin said she has been a part of the East Otto Country Holiday Open House since 1989.

“It’s nice to have return customers stop in because it’s fun talking to them and catching up,” she said. “We had

some new customers, too, who just wandered by and stopped in — not knowing it was an open house. It was really fun and a nice surprise for them.”

Robin retired from Cattaraugus-Little Valley School as an art teacher in 2012.

Now, she devotes her time to her art, creating original watercolor paintings, portraits and commissioned works. She also sells limited edition prints, reproductions and note cards.

Whether it’s a pet portrait, a family homestead or an heirloom treasure, she can look at a photo and make it into a work of art.

Visit her studio at 8363 Maples Road by calling for an appointment at 713-5359. For more information, visit online at brooksidestudio.com or Facebook.

A LOOK BACK Continued from front page

Red Cross had an average of 22 people that attended each time the Red Cross room was open — over 300 members in all. In December, 204 articles were knitted, along with 112 hospital shirts, 154 comforts and 21 pieces of relief work.

Additionally, 6,446 surgical dressings were made and cards were sent. Gun wipes were created from old stockings, old underwear or anything soft. Uncle Sam was sending dogs to France to receive proper training to be able to assist in the war.

But the ladies did much more than just knit.

There was a high demand for weapons that resulted in ammunition plants becoming the largest single employer of women during WWI. The women also worked as railway guards, ticket collectors, bus and tram conductors, postal workers and bank tellers while others worked the heavy precision machinery in engineering and led cart horses on farms.

Alas, they did all this work outside the home, receiving lower wages for doing the same job

as the men. It was during this time that there were demands for equal pay for equal work.

DURING WORLD War II, as men fought abroad, women worked in defense plants and volunteered for warrelated organizations.

Some women served in the WAAC (Women’s Army Auxiliary Corps), WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service, or the Navy Women’s Reserve) or WASPS (the Women Airforce Service Pilots) as nurses.

They rigged parachutes, served as radio operators and more. General Eisenhower felt that he could not win the war without the aid of women in uniform.

“The contribution of the women of America, whether on the farm or in the factory or in uniform, to D-Day, was a sine qua non of the invasion effort,” he said.

Here at the home front, they watched for airplanes and made sure the blackout time and efforts were kept.

We also had various drives during the WWII. Drives for items such as rubber and clothing

would be collected and used toward the war effort.

Scrap metal drives were conducted everywhere to gather material to build tanks, ships, planes and weapons — an early form of recycling.

During this time, my mother and grandmother made sleeping bags and parachutes to send over to the men. My mother also volunteered at a hospitality hut, which was later a USO, and wrote letters for the men, visited them in the hospitals, had meals with the “boys” and dances.

It was at one of these events where she met my father, and they courted, even while he was overseas, got engaged and married upon his return.

I am sure all of you have little stories you could tell us, and we would love to hear them.

(Daniel McFadden/Universal Pictures via AP) This image released by Universal Pictures shows Ryan Gosling, left, and Claire Foy in a scene from “First Man.”

By Kellen M. Quigley From Pearl Harbor to JFK’s assassination to 9/11, everyone remembers where they were when they heard some of the most tragic news of the last 100 years.

But it’s arguable that the Apollo 11 landing on the moon is the most important event of the 20th century, something positive nearly one billion people experienced together in real time.

And yet, for the Neil Armstrong biopic “First Man,” director Damien Chazelle chose to make something closer to a National Geographic documentary than a dramatic adventure story similar to 1995’s “Apollo 13.”

Exploring how NASA got a man on the moon in less than eight years is a movie that needs to be told, but telling it from the perspective of someone who is portrayed as cold, calculating and hard to relate to is not as entertaining as a Chazelle film should be.

In the recent trend of doing biopics that don’t show the subject’s whole life, “First Man” follows Armstrong (played by Ryan Gosling) in his struggles from the death of his daughter in 1961 to the moon landing in 1969.

The film explores all the struggles and tragedies during those eight years of NASA’s preparations for the moon mission from Niel’s perspective, narrowing the scope and diving into the psyche of a man experiencing life-changing events while balancing a family life.

After his previous two films, “Whiplash” and “La La Land,” Chazelle’s latest project had a lot of hype around it from the start.

Luckily, there’s plenty about this film to admire.

The production value is incredible, from the sets and costume design to the special effects, it’s all convincingly authentic. Combined with the documentary-style technique of filming it, I believe I’m in the action for most of the film.

However, while technical aspects are nearly flawless, the personal aspects dealing with the story and characterization, especially with Armstrong, lacks that emotional connection I need to root for him.

Seeing a good Gosling performance is a gamble.

Depending on the role, his expressionless acting style will make or break a film.

While that’s perfect for “Blade Runner 2049,” it’s mostly worthless here.

In scenes of Armstrong on different test missions

or training at NASA headquarters, his cold, detached persona works for the man who has to calculate dozens of problems a minute and correctly execute the science and engineering.

But being that same way hanging out with his friends in the backyard or playing with his kids around the house or having a discussion with his wife does not help me understand or feel for this guy.

Conversely, Armstrong’s wife is portrayed by Claire Foy in heartbreaking fashion.

This is possibly her best performance to date. While Gosling shows nearly no emotion, Foy’s acting is so good she brings enough raw, powerful emotion for the two of them. She’s almost guaranteed an Oscar nomination and possibly the win.

In addition to Foy, the scenes taking place in the rockets in space are some of the best-constructed movie moments of the year.

Chazelle’s choice to show everything from inside the cramped cockpit does help show what Armstrong is experiencing.

The real-time playouts showing every shake from turbulence, every unsteady motion in zero-gravity, every whiplash from exiting and re-entering the atmosphere is perfectly captured through expert cinematography, editing, sound design and direction.

Although Chazelle’s previous films were all about jazz, the music here still plays a big part but isn’t always welcome. Through the first 40 minutes, the score is either completely absent or very minimalist, adding to the documentary feel.

But then composer Justin Hurwitz decides to go with a bombastic, fullorchestra sound straight out of the Romantic era of classical music. It goes from something that felt personal and didn’t overshadow the events to a “Star Wars” soundtrack, and it does not mix.

In fact, that rings true for the whole experience: it does not mix well. Even though there was only one screenwriter, it felt like there were two separate scripts — one adventure movie about going to the moon and one about Armstrong’s home life — spliced together.

Regardless of its problems, “First Man” is still a good film and an important one to see. It’s just a shame that it felt more like a no-nonsense history lesson and not like a drama filled with emotion to relate to.

Would you like to build a disaster-resilient house?

The icy winds from last year’s Polar Vortex are back on our minds again as we head towards winter. The plummeting temperatures are one thing, but of more concern is the destruction that these extreme weather events can bring, including winds that last year gusted up to 100 kilometers per hour, threatening our personal safety, as well as the very foundation of our homes.

The building industry does have a proven solution, however. For more than a decade, construction technology has given us the energy-saving option to replace standard wood framing with an interlocking concrete system known as ICFs, or insulated concrete

Joe Gambino 716-474-5363

brothersdiesel@gmail.com

Dominic Gambino 716-713-9429

Brothers Diesel Performance

forms.

“ICFs lock together, a bit like Lego, to deliver walls that are disaster-resilient to storm winds as high as 402 kilometers per hour,” says Todd Blyth at Nudura, a leading name in this field. “Compared to wood, concrete walls are more fire-resistant - with a fourhour fire-protection factor - and the superior insulation property of the building envelope gives homeowners up to 70 percent savings on their energy bills. This is due to vastly reduced air infiltration and to the thermal mass of the concrete, allowing energy-efficiency ratings as high as R-50, compared to an average R-20 in wood structures. You can also add optional inserts to the ICF forms to improve their efficiency even more.”

Specifically, the walls are constructed with preassembled, interlocking units so they are easily transported to any building site. Each form consists of two panels

11689 Bolton Rd. Springville, NY 14141

www.brothersdieselperformance.com

of thick foam (expanded polystyrene) connected with a patented web system.

Guided by the architectural design and beauty aspects you want, the ICFs are stacked, steel reinforced, and filled with concrete until the entire building envelope is complete.

Inside the home, all of the creative architectural shapes like arches, bay windows, and high ceilings can be achieved. On the outside, the walls can be finished with attractive brick, or with stone, stucco, wood, or vinyl siding.

Occupant comfort Who would have thought that concrete was comfortable? For example, even with less energy use, the indoor temperature is more easily controlled. In a standard wood-framed home, outside drafts often travel right through the walls, creating chilly spots in various rooms. This is eliminated in a house with a solid concrete core.

“Superior soundproofing is another bonus of the ICF system,” Blyth continues.

“And if comfort is equated to peace-of-mind, why not add ‘investment security’ to the list? It is generally expected that a stronger, safer, greener home - and one that is more durable, more cost efficient, and needs less maintenance and repair - will steadily increase in resale value.”

Senator Young secures SGI students collecting cans of food for $200K for Gowanda rescue vehicle those in need

By Elyana Schosek, Student Reporter

Around this time every November, a canned food drive is held at SpringvilleGriffith Institute (SGI) High School by the Key Club.

“The school’s annual food drive is timed around Thanksgiving, with the idea of collecting as many donations as possible to be given to families in need of food throughout the holiday season,” said Key Club President Abby Stressinger, a senior at SGI. Established in 1925, the Key Club is a student-led international organization whose mission is to stimulate leadership by helping others.

Although, this drive is the only annual drive hosted at the high school, there are often smaller drives hosted by the class officers.

“For example, during the movie nights hosted by the junior class, canned food donations are always welcome even though they are not required,” Abby said. “Even these small collections of food can make a difference.”

Canned food drives are also commonly hosted by the student councils in all schools in the district throughout the year.

“All the goods we collect from the drive are donated to the Springville Food Pantry, a charity we have donated the goods to for as long as I have been a part of the drive,” Abby said. “The food pantry is one of the main charities Key Club donates to throughout the school year.”

The Springville Food Pantry is part of a much

By Rick Miller Five years ago, the Cattaraugus County Legislature was ready to approve the demolition of the former County Museum and Board of Elections across Court Street from the County Center.

Today, a not-forprofit group, Citizens Advocating Memorial Preservation (C.A.M.P.), owns what has come to be known as the Civil War Memorial Building.

Its fundraising is geared toward maintenance and long-term capital projects.

On Sunday, Veterans Day, C.A.M.P. will conduct a dedication ceremony for a Pomeroy Historic Roadside Marker at 2 p.m. outside the building at the corner of Court and Seventh streets.

“It will let people know what the building is all about,” C.A.M.P. president Thomas Stetz, of Allegany, said of the familiar blue and yellow historic roadside marker.

“We had to submit quite a lot of information about the building, then we were limited to the number of characters on each line of the marker,” Stetz said.

Kind of like Twitter.

C.A.M.P. was the lone bidder for the building when county lawmakers decided to sell it last year.

The building was dedicated in 1914 as a memorial to Cattaraugus County residents who fought in the Civil War. It was used as the County

larger organization: The Food Bank of Western New York.

The Food Bank of WNY is a primary hunger-relief organization in Western New York. They serve Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, Erie, and Niagara counties. In this given area, one in eight people is at risk of going hungry.

“Food drives are so essential to our community and those all across the world in that they give to those who are not as fortunate to have food easily available,” Abby added.

And to help those in need, events like this require a lot of work on part of the organizers.

“We give labeled paper bags to each homeroom, put on

announcements raising awareness of the drive, hang up posters and finally do an afterschool pick-up of all the goods,” Abby explained.

To make the drive more exciting and encourage more donations, a competition is held that puts each homeroom against the others.

“The homeroom that collects the most canned goods/nonperishable products wins a breakfast of donuts and juice during homeroom,” Abby said. “It’s always been a tradition to celebrate whichever homeroom collects the most, and the competition between homerooms often gets intense.”

After being a part of the drive for multiple

years, Abby said, “It’s always fun to see how many goods each homeroom collects and how close each class is to winning the competition.”

This year’s drive will run from Monday, Nov. 5 to Wednesday, Nov. 14.

Like Abby said, “Even these small collections of food can make a difference,” and that’s why all students are encouraged to bring in canned food and nonperishable items for the drive.

Along with the satisfaction of helping out the less fortunate people in their community, students are also presented with the additional incentive of a donut party for the winning homeroom.

Crassi said. “Like all fire departments, finding money in these tight budget times and being very sensitive to taxpayer dollars in smaller communities is very tricky.”

While the fire department has rescued many lost hikers, stranded kayakers and rafters at Zoar Valley, there have been at least seven deaths over the last 15 years.

During Memorial Day weekend, three hikers were rescued after becoming disorientated and lost prior to nightfall. In July, Connor Long, 20, of Boston, died when he fell off a 70-foot cliff at the gorge.

In August 2017, Amanda and William Green of South Buffalo died after slipping down a 100-foot cliff. Their 7-year-old son Jacob and 4-year-old son Alexander were injured but survived.

“The Gowanda Volunteer Fire Department has been responding to calls over the years in an old, much needed to be replaced, rescue truck,” Chief Crassi said. “Our rescue truck responds to all calls including, auto accidents, fire calls, and it responds to all emergencies to the Zoar Valley area. Some of the Zoar Valley calls can be life or death situations and can last hours and even days.”

Senator Young said because their services are vital to the community, supporting volunteer firefighters and first responders is always a priority.

“The Gowanda Fire Department Special Rescue Team is the only team of its type in the immediate vicinity of the gorge,” Senator Young said. “The men and women who volunteer as firefighters and first responders are true heroes. They love their communities so much, they sacrifice time away from family and friends and risk their own health and safety to protect others. They need and deserve to have the proper equipment.”

Senator Cathy Young, R-Olean, presented a $200,000 check to the Gowanda Fire Department Oct. 23 to help the department purchase a new fire/rescue truck, which will respond to emergencies throughout the fire district, particularly in the Zoar Valley gorge.

Senator Young secured the funding through a $200,000 capital grant in the 2018-19 New York State budget.

“This new rescue truck will be used on every non-EMS rescue call the Gowanda Volunteer Fire Department responds to,” she said. “Securing grant funding like this is the best way to ensure our volunteer first responders have the equipment they need without imposing an added burden on local property taxpayers.”

The Village of Gowanda is contributing $230,000 to cover the $430,000 total project cost. It will replace a 29-year-old truck, which is no longer reliable.

“Zoar Valley is beautiful, but its remote location and high cliffs make rescue operations difficult,” Senator Young said. “This new truck will enable Gowanda firefighters to continue their life-saving mission.”

The vehicle will carry specialized rope-rescue and water-rescue equipment used by the specially trained members of the Gowanda Fire Department on an average of 130 rescue calls per year. It will also carry state-of-the-art emergency lighting required for rescue operations in the Zoar Valley Multiple Use Area along the gorge.

Gowanda Fire Chief Nicholas Crassi thanked Senator Young for her support, adding that the old rescue truck needed to be retired.

“There is no way to show how we appreciate Senator Young’s love and care for our firefighters and the Gowanda Volunteer Fire Department,” Chief

one.”

Other grant applications have been made to the Landmark Society of Western New York and the Cattaraugus Regional Community Foundation, he said.

“We’re trying to keep the spotlight on the building,” Stetz said.

There is an online fundraising section on the group’s website, cattcomemorial.com. The group’s Facebook page features regular events.

“When we first got involved, we stood ready to help the county,” Stetz said. When it became apparent that the county wanted out, C.A.M.P. stepped up.

“We’re reaching out to some longshots for funding too,” Stetz admitted. “Maybe one out of 100 of them will pan out.”

Stetz added: “At least it’s not sitting there waiting to be demolished.”

Citizens Advocating Memorial Preservation (C.A.M.P.) will conduct a dedication ceremony for a Pomeroy Historic Roadside Marker on Sunday at the Civil War Memorial Building at the corner of Court and Seventh streets in Little Valley.

Museum until the early 2000s.

Stetz became involved in the effort to save the Civil War Memorial after reading about it in the Olean Times Herald.

Later, Mark Dunkleman, an author and historian who has written extensively on Cattaraugus County’s 154th Regiment, which fought in the Civil War, shared C.A.M.P.’s fight to save the monument with descendants of the 154th in his monthly newsletter.

One descendent of a 154th Civil War soldier from Cattaraugus County now living in the Midwest has donated $3,000, Stetz said.

Spencer Morgan, an Allegany native now working in the SUNY Fredonia development

office, is in charge of fundraising and grants.

Morgan had a relative in the 154th, Oscar Wilber.

The annual meeting of descendants of the 154th Regiment was held this year outside the Civil War Memorial Building on the weekend of the Little Valley Bicentennial.

“That’s probably the largest group of people gathered outside that building since it was dedicated in 1914,” Stetz said.

Much of the current fundraising is going toward annual heating and insurance costs, Stetz said.

“We’ve got help from all different parts of the country, not just Cattaraugus County,” Stetz said. Much of that is thanks to publicity by

Dunkleman, he added.

“We have a major grant pending from the state’s Consolidated Funding Application,” Stetz said. “It’s a mid-size capital project through the Council on the

Arts for $50,000 for an engineering study.”

The study will be needed for subsequent grant applications, Stetz said. “It opens the doors for other grants, step by step, leading up to a big

Springville’s Sonya Krezmien came home with a fourth-place patch at the Section 6 cross country state qualifier, finishing fourth of 116 girls running in Class C on Friday.

The SpringvilleGriffith Institute cross country teams both competed in sectionals, with the boys placing sixth of 16 teams and the girls were eighth of 18 teams.

Krezmien finished the five-kilometer race in 20:19.39 while

teammate Hannah Goetz was ninth at 21:09.32.

Also for Springville, Jaime Dickinson was 56th at 23:21.56 and Evelyn Smith took 58th (23:30.93).

Holland makes two state-qualifying swims at sectionals

Elle Holland earned a pair of top-five finishes at the Section 6 swimming championships, with state qualifying times in both the 100-yard backstroke and 50 freestyle.

The Section 6 meet served as a last-chance state qualifier for swimmers after the Class meets last week. Holland qualified for states in the 100 backstroke, timing in second of 33 swimmers at 1:00.13, and the 50 freestyle, where she was fifth at :24.69.

Springville also had a strong showing in the sectional diving competition as Shannon O’Hara

placed ninth with 367.75 points. Alyssa Greaves was 23rd (316.60) and Samantha Zifra 24th (314.50).

Also for the Griffins, Carley Delaney was 14th in the 100 breaststroke (1:13.23).

SGI had three relay teams compete in the top 20, led by the 17th-place 200 medley relay of Holland, Delaney, Lauren Ditchey and Hannah Bergner (1:59.11). Ditchey, Emily Schlemmer, Anna Lawton and Bergner were 18th in the 200 free relay (1:50.16) and Bergner, Lawton, Ditchey and Holland were 20th in the 400 free relay (3:59.11).

Ditchey was 28th in the 100 backstroke (1:08.21).

Alden knocks out Springville in four-set sectional final The Springville boys junior varsity soccer team recently completed ITS 2018 season, finishing with a record of 10-4-0.

The Griffins scored 35 goals for the year, while only allowing 13 goals, with a balanced scoring attack. Freshman Hunter Keem led the team with seven goals. A stingy defense recording eight shutouts, with Austin Boies getting the bulk of the action in the net.

One of the highlights of the Griffins’ season came early on when Springville travelled to Alden to take on the Bulldogs, a battle of two unbeaten teams at the time. Springville came out of the intense game winning 1-0, which ended up being Alden’s only loss on the season.

Another highlight came on Sept. 25 when

the Griffins hosted Lackawanna. The visiting Steelers led at halftime with a usually insurmountable score of 3-0. That was just when Springville started playing however, as the Griffins scored four goals early in the second half and hung on to win, 4-3.

Captains Austin Boies, Cameron Denny and Charley DiGangi provided great leadership for the team.

Also ending the season on the team were: John Andreeff, Kyle Baker, Eric Copeland, Nathan Cudney, Andrew Fisher, Ethan Fisher, Daniel Gernatt, Josh Guerrero, Will Guilmain, Garon Holland, Connor Hughey, Grant Karb, Hunter Keem, Ben Sullivan and Dylan Westbrook.

A third-set victory briefly staved off elimination, but Alden proved to be too much for the SpringvilleGriffith Institute girls volleyball team to continue its season.

Still the Griffins finished their season on a high note with a hard-fought loss to Alden, 25-17, 25-18, 22-25, 25-11 on Thursday in the Section 6 Class B2 finals at Daemen College. SGI finishes the season 23-8.

Griffins coach Carolyn Bell noted Alden’s tough serving game and strong outside attack.

“I could not be more proud of the dedication, hard work, and overall heart these group of girls had this entire season,” Bell said. “I have never coached a team before where all players were contributors on the court. As my first season with this program, I could not have been happier with the final day’s play.

The girls were fighters and even more important, great teammates.”

Seniors Allie Emmick and Mary DiGangi led the team with six kills each, while Emmick also had 3 solo blocks against Alden’s outside attack.

Offensively, senior Meadow Wittman led the way with six kills, 21 set assists, 18 digs and owned a team-high of six service aces. Devyn Rowe was the defensive leader with 22 digs.

For Alden, Emma Wlostowski had 10 kills and 10 digs while Emma Dievel marked two kills, one block and three aces.

Alden would go on to defeat Olean for the overall Class B title and advance to the state Far West Regional.
