Talk about any other fears. Engage in an open dialogue with your son or daughter about any additional fears he or she may have.

If the potential for peer pressure is a cause for concern, reinforce advice on how to react to peer pressure.

KEEPING IT LOCAL, TOGETHER.
Dear Readers,
Lately, it feels like the world is moving faster than ever — with constant talk about technology, artificial intelligence, and big changes coming our way. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by it all.
We want to give you a break from all the noise when you read the Penny Saver. We want to continue to curate a product that you feel good about reading, where you can learn about what’s happening with your neighbors and feel proud about living in our beautiful region. e Penny Saver has been many things to many people but the one constant for the publication has been a focus on “local”. To that end, we want to expand all that we share with you to make this the best and most useful publication. So what does this mean?
e bottom line is we want to create and share more local content. at might include stories about high school athletes, highlights of local trails and other natural gems to visit, homesteading tips, reviews of new books coming out from local authors, shared local poetry, new playground reviews, and even local generational recipe sharing! ese are just a taste of what we want to build. However, our focus will not be on hard news. Politics and police blotters have never been our specialty, and we want to leave that type of reporting to the folks in the news that do that best.
ere is a reality to these ambitions. Costs continue to rise, especially for postage and revenue is unpredictable due to an ever-changing advertising landscape. We’ve worked hard since the pandemic to lower our costs and provide the same great service to you, but adding content to better serve readers requires more resources.
Here’s what we’re asking. If every home that receives the Penny Saver gave $5 we would be able to fund all of this local content and more. Our goal is to keep the Penny Saver a free publication and available to as many readers in the community as possible. What we are seeking is an investment from you in the product you love to make it even better.
It’s said in our industry that the health of a local publication is a direct reflection of the community it serves. Our commitment to local goes beyond our content. Our paper is printed right in Avon, NY by employees, managers, and owners that live here in Western New York. We hope to remain strong for many years to come and even foster the next generation of readers who share the love of “local”.
We’ve included a form below and we so appreciate your attention and support of the Penny Saver’s future.
Thank you for your consideration and your readership. The Genesee Valley Penny Saver & Featured Media Management Team

BEGINNING AND ENDING WITH “K”
The Enduring Legacy of Oliver’s Candies
BY GEORGE CASSIDY PAYNE
Batavia in 1932. e nation was unraveling. Banks shuttered. Bread lines grew. Hope, like jobs, was in short supply. But in a quiet kitchen in Batavia, a humble act of defiance was taking shape: Joseph Boyd Oliver was making candy.
Not just any candy, Oliver conjured sponge candy, a delicate, golden honeycomb cloaked in rich chocolate, crisp at first bite, then melting into something ethereal. A miracle of chemistry and care. In a world gone bitter, Oliver offered sweetness.
From that modest kitchen emerged more than a treat, it became a tradition and Western NY institution, handmade, heart-led, and born of courage in the face of collapse. Joseph Boyd Oliver, a working-class dreamer from Pennsylvania coal country, landed in Batavia amid the ruins of the Great Depression. Jobs were vanishing, but Oliver believed in the power of small joys and in the transformative magic of sugar, heat, and timing.
He started simply, blanching peanuts for nearby gas stations. But ambition, like caramel, runs hot. Soon, he experimented in his home kitchen, cra ing chocolate bark, glazing cashews, and perfecting what would become Genesee County’s iconic sponge candy.
ough the world was tightening its belt, neighbors found nickels for indulgence. Oliver’s humble shop on West Main Street became a haven, a reminder that joy was still possible and still edible.
A Legacy Passed Down and Carried Forward
Megan Palone’s journey with Oliver’s Candies began decades later, but the spirit was the same. She picked up shi s in college, evenings and weekends, and says, “I graduated and kept coming back.” at sense of home and tradition mirrors what Oliver’s has meant to generations of Western New Yorkers.
Now serving as General Manager, Palone describes her role as “a little bit of everything,” accounting, purchasing, scheduling, and whatever else needs doing to keep the legacy brand thriving.
Much of Oliver’s candy is still handmade in their Elba factory, and Palone explains, “We still use machinery from the early 1900s. Our ribbon candy is made with a machine that probably no one else in the country is using anymore.”
is blend of old-world methods and small-batch care defines Oliver’s. Many tasks could be automated, but the team chooses the human touch, honoring a long tradition of cra smanship. Palone says, “It’s reminiscent. Customers come in and tell stories of growing up with our candy. It holds a lot of memories.”
CARLA ARTMAN WAHLS
JOSEPH BOYD OLIVER
THE BATAVIAN
Purchased in 1998 by Jon and Sheila Quincey and now run by their son Jeremy Liles, Oliver’s remains deeply rooted in its community. And that nostalgic quality has proven resilient. Palone recalls, “During COVID, people would say, ‘I don’t care what’s going on, I still need my candy.’ ere’s something about our product that people always want and seek out.”
With 58 employees across the business, 20 (during peak season) working directly in the factory, Oliver’s is both a beloved brand and a meaningful local employer. Recent years have brought growth, with a booming online presence and a record-breaking Easter season. Palone hints at future possibilities, saying, “We haven’t run out of room in the new factory yet.”
e Alchemy of Sponge Candy
To Western New Yorkers, sponge candy isn’t a novelty. It’s a ritual. It shatters with a whisper then dissolves into velvet. Made with sugar, corn syrup, and a precise dash of baking soda, its golden interior is a testament to fragile balance. One second too long on the flame and it’s scorched. One careless stir and the texture collapses. It’s a confection that demands respect.
at fragility makes sponge candy fiercely regional. It doesn’t travel well. It resists automation. And at Oliver’s, that’s the point, authenticity can’t be mass-produced.
Joseph and Edna Oliver ran their shop with devotion, their values folded into every batch. When they retired in 1960, they didn’t sell to the highest bidder. ey passed the torch to those who shared their ethos. Today, Oliver’s remains a labor of love, not just business.

faces to the glass. Adults step back into the warmth of childhood kitchens.
For Batavian Carla Artman-Wahls, a registered nurse, those memories run deep, as she says, “Oliver’s has always been the place to go for our special treats for Easter, Christmas, and whenever we needed a thoughtful thankyou gi . Receiving a box of Oliver’s chocolates always made me feel really special!”
She and her family o en travel with sponge candy in tow, gi ing it to flight attendants, hotel staff, and friends from afar. “It’s always a delicious treat that’s warmly received and gobbled up!”
Sponge candy may be a local delicacy, but its appeal crosses borders. rough the hands of loyal customers like Carla, Oliver’s legacy travels far, carrying the flavor of home wherever it goes.
To outsiders, sponge candy might seem like a nostalgic oddity. But to Buffalonians, Batavians, and Rochesterians, it’s memory made edible: snowstorms and kitchen lights, family visits and passed-down traditions.
Oliver’s Candies is a living archive, a generational flame, a candy counter with a conscience. And in every crisp, meltaway bite, you taste the legacy of a man who, in one of the darkest chapters of American history, dared to believe something radical: Even when the world goes bitter, we still deserve something sweet.

HOW STUDENTS CAN HANDLE THE TRANSITION TO MIDDLE SCHOOL
Participate in a school-based transition program. Middle schools frequently host open houses for elementary school students, who can take tours of the campus. Parents can take part in these events with their children. If your schedule does not allow you to attend, then schedule a private tour with the middle school principal or a faculty member. Middle school guidance counselors or guest speakers also may make the rounds, visiting elementary schools directly. Be sure your student attends such information sessions so he or she can get an idea of what to expect during middle school. CREATED & PRINTED JUST FOR

HOW COLLEGE STUDENTS CAN CUT LIVING EXPENSES
The cost of college tuition is a concern for many college-bound students and their families. The cost of a college education continues to rise, but it’s not just tuition and room and board that students and their families must account for. College students may underestimate cost-of-living expenses when planning their school-year budgets. But such expenses can be substantial, catching even the most well-prepared students off guard. Fortunately, there are several ways for college students to save money on living expenses and still make the most of their time on campus.
HOW COLLEGE STUDENTS CAN CUT LIVING EXPENSES
Buy secondhand furnishings. College students living in their own apartments or dorm rooms may not have the financial resources to purchase new furniture. Rather than purchasing brand new items they are likely to discard after moving out or graduating, college students can purchase secondhand items from local thrift stores or used furniture retailers that offer sturdy furnishings at low prices.
Bryant began playing basketball at the age of three. When he was six, his father retired from the NBA and moved his family to Italy to continue playing professional basketball at a lower level.
Not only was Kobe Bryant a star basketball player, but he also won an Oscar award. He earned his Oscar in 2018. Bryant took home the trophy for best animated short film at the ceremony, called "Dear Basketball."

Understand How Systemic Lupus Affects a Person’s Body
Q. A.
DEAR DR. ROACH: What is lupus, and what does it do to your body? I just had a friend who was diagnosed with it after many months of tests. -- T.S.B.
ANSWER: The term “lupus” generally means systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE), which is a systemic disorder as its name suggests. So, by definition, it affects multiple systems of the body.
One of the most commonly affected systems is the skin, and one particular localized disease of the skin -- discoid lupus -- is a condition that helps make the diagnosis of SLE. I sometimes hear people with discoid lupus say that they have “lupus,” but it is not the systemic disease unless other criteria are met. Other skin conditions seen with SLE include the classic “butterfly” rash on the face, marked sun sensitivity, mouth ulcers, and hair loss.
People with SLE commonly have systemic or “constitutional” symptoms such as fatigue, fever and generalized aching. Weight loss is common with early SLE, but some people gain weight due to salt and water retention from the kidney manifestations of SLE or from treatment.
Joint problems (both pain and swelling) are present in over 90% of people with SLE. It always affects more than one joint. Kidney problems with protein in the urine are common and a diagnostic criterion. Neurological disorders are infrequent but may include seizures, peripheral neuropathy, and acute confusion or psychosis.
The lining of the heart and lungs are often affected, which can be heard by an examiner. An electrocardiogram shows typical changes. All of the blood cells -- red, white and “blue” (platelets) -- can be decreased.
Finally, there are blood proteins that are elevated in people with SLE.The ANA level is almost always high, but this is not a specific finding. I have seen more patients misdiagnosed with lupus because of a high ANA level and no other criteria for SLE than I have ever seen correctly diagnosed.
The anti-Smith antibody is much more specific but not commonly seen, while the anti-double-stranded DNA test is more common and specific than an ANA test. Blood tests alone do not diagnose SLE.
There are different scoring systems to make the diagnosis of definite and probable SLE using these criteria, but in clinical practice, the diagnosis is made using the judgment of an experienced clinician. In my practice, I refer all of my patients with suspected SLE to a rheumatologist.
The diagnosis of SLE isn’t completely straightforward and requires expertise, while the management of SLE requires a clinician who is both experienced and currently up-to-date in the medical treatment.This, again, usually means a rheumatologist.
Seventy years ago, prior to the development of steroids, the diagnosis of SLE used to be extremely dangerous, with half of people who were newly diagnosed dying within five years. Since steroids have many side effects and aren’t 100% effective, many new drugs have been developed, and most people who are diagnosed with SLE now can be well-managed.
However, it is still a serious, life-changing diagnosis that increases the risk of heart disease and cancer in addition to all the organ issues mentioned above. A general doctor working with the rheumatologist can recommend treatments to reduce your heart risk, as well as appropriate cancer screening tests.
Dr. Roach
Make your own meals. Meal plans may be ideal for college students during their freshmen years, when students may still be adjusting to campus life. But older college students can skip the meal plan in favor of preparing their own meals. Doing so can save students substantial amounts of money, and some students may even prefer the variety available at the local grocery store over the more limited offerings available at dining halls or other campus eateries.

We would like to thank everyone who helped my wife and I when we had an accident on Route 31A on July 17, 2025. Everyone was so kind and helpful. Thank you to the lady who took our dog back to our house. Thank you all for your kind help and for staying with us until medical help came. Thanks again to everyone! It was so nice to have people like all of you.
Thank you, The Kimmel family
Small ings Make All e Difference
Recently, our family was celebrating our grandson’s birthday at the Yates Town Park. As we were ready to serve the cake we realized the forks were missing. I went to the pavilion next to us and asked if they had extra forks we could have. Several of the people in their group were very happy to share some forks with us. I thanked them for their kindness and generosity but wanted to give them another “Thank you!” for helping us out. Sometimes it’s the small things that make all the difference!
Goats Everywhere
What are the zoning laws in a small town when it comes to goats and how they are treated? Plus, [local] structures that are not used for goats? I drive this road to the [local food store] and hope not to hit a goat. Will have to use different roads. Just be kind to goats and humans.
Li erbug
To the woman and her passenger that got [food from local restaurant] to go and sat in their car and ate their food and then decided to throw ALL their garbage out of their window into the parking lot. What possesses a person to do such a thing? You have no respect for anyone or anything. I did get your license plate number and make and color of your car so if you think this is a good idea again, the police will get called. Do yourself a favor and dump your trash on your own property.
