44thth of July in Ellicottville of July in EllicottvilleCelebrating Old Glory Celebrating Old Glory

at Her Finestat Her Finest

BY JEFF COLE

While passing through any residential area in the United States, one might be oblivious to Old Glory jutting forth from a fl agpole outside one or many houses.

But on certain occasions, such as Memorial Day, Veterans Day and the Fourth of July, the American fl ag appears ubiquitous. It can be found seemingly everywhere, from fl agpoles to pins to T-shirts.

Unlike Memorial Day and Veterans Day, which are days solemnly observed for honoring past and present U.S. soldiers, the Fourth of July is a time to consider that which the United States was founded for. It is what the American fl ag proudly symbolizes and has done so, though not without alteration,

since the country was in its embryonic stages: Independence.

Once again, this Fourth of July, the American fl ag will retain its omnipresent quality and fl y proudly high while families all across the nation gather for cookouts, parades, concerts and fi reworks displays in the spirit of celebrating Americaʼs independence. One might be hard-pressed to fi nd any better place for a wide range of family-friendly fun this Fourth of July weekend than in and around Ellicottville, which celebrated its 175th year as a village April 3.

Summer Music Festival:

June 29–July 1Like fi reworks, the

weekend will begin with a bang when the Summer Music Festival starts at 7 p.m. today with Steel Keys and Brass opening on Holiday Valleyʼs slopeside main stage for Sister Hazel, who will perform at 9 p.m. The Buff alo Philharmonic Orchestra (B.P.O.) will perform at 8 p.m. Saturday, followed by fi reworks, which can be viewed from many area vantage points and will accompany the “1812 Overture” and “The Stars and Stripes Forever.” Stinger will open at 7 p.m. Sunday for the fi nal musical act, The Guess Who, who will play at 9 p.m.

Tickets, which can be purchased at the gate or online at www.ellicottvilleny.com, are $30 for Sister Hazel, $30 and $35 for the BPO and The Guess Who.

The weekend will also include an arts and crafts show from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday on Jeff erson Street, the annual pet parade

at 11 a.m. Saturday on Washington Street, entertainment in the gazebo from 2-5 p.m. Saturday and a Strawberry Festival sponsored by the Ellicottville Historical Society from noon to 3 p.m. Sunday.

Music in the Gazebo Series: June 30–Aug. 9

Kicking off this yearʼs Music in the Gazebo series, which will run from 7-9 p.m. every Thursday through Aug. 9 after Saturdayʼs premier, will be the classic/Southern rock cover band The Midnight Riders. Tim Brown, who plays the Hammond organ and provides some vocals for the group, said he feels great about being the seriesʼ opening act. The band will play from 2-5 p.m.

“We love playing. We played up there two other times. Weʼve never been part of the actual series. Before, we played on July Fourth weekend, but it was always on a Friday afternoon and there werenʼt nearly as many people up there, but this time weʼre playing on a Saturday,” he said, adding that he hopes for a good crowd this time while playing at the gazebo.

Raccoon Rally:

By Eva Potter Viewing beautiful art

is a gallery setting is inspirational, but when fi ne art is showcased in an idyllic garden setting with gurgling stone fountains, cushy seating under the shade of patio umbrellas, colorful summer greenery, the harmonious tinkling of relaxing music, a good cause and a few sips of delectable wine, you know you have entered a thought-provoking corner of paradise right in the charming Village of Ellicottville.

On Saturday, June 30, 2012, enjoy a day of Art in the Garden hosted by Darlene Allen and Todd Plough at Allen’s home at 11

The Summer Festival of Music and Arts Weekend, organized by our hard working Chamber of Commerce, is our third festival weekend of 2012. That coupled with The Fourth of July Weekend, means we are really in for some FUN times here in Ellicottville. Starting today Friday June 29, 2012 through Thursday July 5, 2012 we will have twenty-four Bands, two DJ’s, the usual sound system events, a wonderful fi reworks display plus all the neat food and beverage specials that are offered by our excellent restaurants and nightclubs. Eighteen of the bands will be this weekend and eight of the eighteen weekend bands will perform at Holiday Valley.

As always, for those of us who visit or live in The Ellicottville area, the out door FUN stuff is also going strong. This includes golf, biking and hiking. For golf, just call either Elkdale Country Club or Holiday Valley, make a Tee time, then get out and enjoy the good golf times both courses have to offer.

Our music kicks off at 3:00 PM this Friday afternoon in Holiday Valley’s Cabana Bar with The Theresa Quinn Trio. Theresa is an innovative pianist, vocalist and songwriter who performs an eclectic mix of blues-infl uenced to R&B standards. Then around 7:00 PM the fi rst of the ticketed music gigs of The Summer Fest begins on Holiday Valley’s out-door music stage with Steel Keys & Brass who will be opening for Sister Hazel. Steel Keys & Brass, a four piece group with one or more on vocals, was the opening act for Rusted Root at last year’s Summer Fest. Then at 9:00 PM Sister Hazel will take the stage performing as their billing says, “Sister Hazel’s signature mix of Southern pop hooks and country rock harmonies that will keep audiences of all ages entertained”. WOW, what a great start to our super weekend!

Back in the village there will be two Friday night gigs. The fi rst will be The A List doing a 7:00 PM Friday show in Balloons. This is a fi ve-piece classic to pop to southern rock band playing cover tunes from the last sixty years in a style similar to the original artists. Following The A List, “Personable DJ John Barry” will be in Balloons Sound & Light Booth doing his LIVE “Personality Show Off Show”. As always, John will provide a danceable selection of tunes and good Party-Time FUN till close.

Next, Road To Recover will be doing a 9:00 PM Friday gig in The Gin Mill. . Katie and John, who are The Road To Recover, do a show that includes tunes from Miranda Lambert to Adele with some Aerosmith thrown in the mix for even more FUN.

Saturday gets started at 2:00 PM in The Town Park Gazebo with The Midnight Riders doing their classic to southern rock music show. This is a six-piece local band that does really neat cover classic to southern rock in a very audience involved and FUN way.

Then at 3:00 PM Saturday The Ellicottville Brewing Company will have The Caribbean Island Explosion Rhythm Band. As their name implies, this will be an

out door Caribbean music experience that will have you wanting to book a cruise.

Next The Untouchables will be doing a 3:30 PM gig in Holiday Valley’s Cabana Bar. This four-piece band from Bemus Point does a neat blend of R&B, oldies R&R, classic soul plus a wide range of other music styles in a very entertaining way.

Moving to Balloons at 6:00 PM, an EVL favorite, The Ozone Rangers will be set up and ROCKIN the house with their wonderful version of southern to classic rock.

Following The Ozone Rangers, DJ Chatty or Flakey Frank, The Party Monster, will keep the party going in his FUN way from Balloons Sound & Light Booth till close.

Returning to 7:00 PM Saturday we will fi nd The EZ3 doing their “Smooth Oldies & Cocktail Cozies” music show on the out side deck of The Silver Fox Steak House.

Then at 8:00 PM Saturday we move back to Holiday Valley’s Out Door Music Stage. Here we will have The Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra doing a light classical set that will be followed by set of dance music. All of this will be followed by a spectacular fi reworks show that will be seen by most everyone in the Ellicottville area.

Saturday’s music rounds out at 9:00 PM with two gigs. First The Gin Mill will be host to Zephyr, a three-piece, long standing rock band that will cause, as they always do, really good Rock N Roll music and dance times to happen.

Also at 9:00 PM The Depot will have The Brass Monkeez, a four-piece teenage band playing original and cover tunes with a sixties/seventies rock to pop and blues sound that is great. The Beatles to Zeppelin have infl uenced their music in a unique way.

This week we will have a fi ve band Sunday. It all kicks off at noon on the front lawn of St John’s Episcopal Church with singer, songwriter Will Lowery doing an acoustic solo gig celebrating one hundred seventy fi ve years of Ellicottville good times.

Next at 3:00 PM Sunday Holiday Valley’s Cabana Bar will have The Bleeding Hearts, a three-piece classic rock band that plays a unique blend of classic rock from the 60’s & 70’s, retro hits from the 80’s, alternative hits from the 90’s to current hits of today.

Then beginning at 7:00 PM Sunday Stinger, one of WNY’S new and most entertaining classic pop/rock bands we have seen around here in several years, will take Holiday Valley’s Out Door Music Stage as the opening act for The Guess Who. Then The Guess Who, the headline band of the weekend, from Winnipeg Manitoba, that has had several hit singles including “American Woman”, “Share The Land” and “These Eyes”, will do a show on The Out Door Music Stage that we believe will be wonderful.

Returning to 8:00 PM Sunday, Two Guys Drinking Beer will have The Gin Mill Crowd really enjoying their music. This, as most of you know, is the acoustic version of the rock band West. Ron

and Terry, the two guys, are excellent musicians and create a really neat acoustic music for us all to enjoy.

WOW what a weekend and we still have six band gigs to go. Three of which will happen on Monday. First The Ellicottville Brewing Company at 6:30 PM will host their “Brews and Bluegrass Show” featuring The Blue Mule Band doing their really FUN and excellent version of bluegrass with heart.

Next, The Gin Mill starting around 7:00 PM, besides their “All U Can Eat Spaghetti Dinner” for only $6.99, will have Home Made Jam doing their “Country Oldies Pure & Simple Music Show”. This is another excellent local music show.

Monday becomes complete at 10:00 PM Sharp with Madigans Church on Monday. The Reverend Jack along with The Deacon are now providing a really neat show of original Honky Tonk to Rock-A-Billy tunes done in a unique and FUN way.

Moving on to Wednesday, The Fourth of July, besides my sister Holly’s birthday, Happy Birthday Holly, we will, as always, have Joe Wagner and John Winston doing their acoustic “Folk to Southern Rock Show” at 8:00 PM in The Gin Mill. This excellent gig is further enhanced by The Gin Mill’s great munchies.

Thursday completes this great week of music with two gigs. First at 7:00 PM The Town Park Gazebo will have the second of our Chamber’s Summer Concert Series. This week we get to see Girls Gone Mild featuring Theresa Quinn, Alison Pipitone, Sue Rozler and Mary Ramsey. All four are well known and excellent singers and musicians.

Then at 8:00 PM Thursday The Weekly Notice Band will take the stage in The Gin Mill. This week we will be back to The Far Out Band. That being The Fred And RT Outstanding Band. WOW What a week.

While celebrating Americaʼs independence is obviously important, itʼs also fun, especially when itʼs done with friends and family members. Charles Coolidge, mayor of the Village of Ellicottville, said that so many events taking place in and around Ellicottville this weekend through Independence Day is positive.

“I think itʼs good for the community,” he said. “Youʼve got the (Buff alo) Philharmonic (Orchestra) up there to Holiday Valley and youʼve got bands throughout the village. I think itʼs a good thing. I think itʼs positive.”

a.m. – 4 p.m., visitors can view and purchase art from some of the area’s premier artists. Proceeds from the event will be donated to local charities. This event is free and open to the public.

Allen is hosting Art in the Garden at her home with the help of fellow artist Todd Plough . This art event has been part of the House and Garden tour for years, which was a ticketed event, but Art in the Garden is now a public event.

“I’ve been involved with the Ellicottville House and Garden tour for quite a few years,” said Allen. “For the last few years, I’ve been organizing this event.” A self-taught photographer, she has been making thought-provoking images since childhood.

Artists will line the winding stone walkways and grassy areas of Allen’s immaculately landscaped backyard, the serene setting complementing fi ne artwork like paintings, photography, jewelry, sculptures, carvings, handcrafted furniture, stained glass, pottery and basket making.

Allen said, “There will be a variety of good, local artists who are going to be showing and selling that day.”

Visitors will enjoy works by Sherri Antle

(dichroic jewelry), Elliott Hutton (functional pottery), Pat Eckstrom (paper sculpture), Karen Fitzpatrick (stained

glass), Betty Meierjurgen (paintings and painted porcelain), Penny Minner (basket making), Joan Pingitore (paintings), Todd Plough (paintings), Mat Snyder (stained glass), Bill Steckman (antler carving), Dug Stein (wood sculpture), Mike Trainer (furniture), Mikel Wintermantel (paintings) and Darlene Allen (photography).

As a Copley Master who is noted for his landscapes, Wintermantel hasn’t shown in Ellicottville in over a decade, but decided to participate this year to support a local cause after spending a few days with Allen and Plough painting in the Finger Lakes Plein Air Festival.

He said, “I had known

Todd for some time now but never had the pleasure of knowing Darlene until then. After fascinating conversations, seeing

Darlene’s design sense in her photos, in her culinary presentation and her eclectic wardrobe, I decided it would be a great venue to showcase some of my paintings along with others in her garden.”

In discussing Plough, an impressionist oil painter and Copley Master, Wintermantel commented, “To me, Todd is a ‘painter’s painter.’ He is consumed by art. He looks totally at ease behind an

easel.” Plough’s nature landscapes go beyond art and into the spiritual realm as he pushed his medium to new levels.

Art browsers and wine sippers will be entertained by the piano melodies of Ted Seuss. In attempt to describe his musical style, he said, “I am always improvising. Though based on riff s and progressions I’ve been playing around with for years, I still never know what’s happening next, until just a quick moment before each note.”

Build an artistic stop at Rockwell Ave. into your weekend of music and touring and experience Ellicottville’s rich, cultural side while helping local charities.

By Mary Fox F o r t y - o n e

seniors from E l l i c o t t v i l l e Central School class of 2012 received high school diplomas on June 21. The graduates received their due of congratulations and words of wisdom during a baccalaureate breakfast as well as the graduation ceremony that evening. These graduates have all attended Ellicottville Central School since at least ninth grade and 55 percent of their parents also graduated from ECS.

The day began with at 8:30 a.m. with graduates and their families attending an ecumenical baccalaureate service at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church. Clergy participating in the spiritual service of celebration were from three Ellicottville churches: Fr. Ron Mierzwa from Holy Name of Mary Roman Catholic Church, Rev. Deborah Packard from the United Church of Ellicottville and Pastor William L. Kay from St. Paul’s Lutheran Church.

Messages from Mark Ward, superintendent of Ellicottville Central School; Robert Miller, high school principal; and James Wiley, president of the school board, focused on ways the past has prepared them for the future. All stressed living the Golden Rule: Treat others as you would like to be treated.

Ward said, “Life is not going to go the way you want it to. There is no magic formula. It’s how you handle it.”

Miller challenged the graduates to lead by

example, live the skills that seem to be slipping away from Americans: respect, dignity, and treating people as you want to be treated.

Wiley advised the graduates to “work hard to the best of you ability. Be a person people want to be around.”

Members of the class of 2012 sang two musical selections, “You Raise Me Up” and “Until We Meet Again.” After the service, the graduates and their families enjoyed a hot breakfast prepared with donations given by local churches and Tops Market.

At 7 p.m., a packed gymnasium watched and listened as words of wisdom, awards and diplomas were handed out to the class of 2012. Video screens in the gym and the cafeteria made it possible for everyone to see the ceremonies.

Ward commended the class of 2012 as being the fi rst class where all students entering by the ninth grade have graduated. On an interesting note, he said that 23 students have one parent and nine have both parents who went to Ellicottville Central School.

“We’ve enjoyed your children,” said Ward to the parents.

Thirteen National Honor Society Scholarships

service and integrity were emphasized.

Shannon Scott was the recipient of the New York State Military Service Recognition Scholarship given to a student with a parent who has died while on active duty in the military. It covers full tuition at a SUNY school, room and board, and incidentals for four years.

Courtney Wilson received the Unifi ed Student Assistance (USA) Recognition Scholarship from Jamestown Community College for a two-year, full-time tuition scholarship.

Gifts given by the class of 2012 were an $800 donation to the Ronald McDonald House, from which two families benefi ted this past year, and $1,000 was given to the school for the purchase of a “real” camera.

“Live the dreams and don’t let anyone get in the way of it,” said Salutatorian Ashley Golley, using Walt Disney as an example of one who chose to follow his dream. “Some don’t think they can shoot for the stars, but if we take the risk we all have the potential, so strive for your dreams.” Golley plans to attend SUNY Brockport with her major still undecided.

cyclists from diff erent regions will soon ride and rumble along the Allegany State Park trails in this year’s Raccoon Rally.

The rally will be held Saturday and Sunday at Allegany State Park in Salamanca and will include four diff erent cycling events: the Road Race (9:30 a.m. Saturday at Camp Allegany), the Bike Trials (10 a.m. Saturday at Thunder Rocks), the Cross-Country Race (10 a.m. Sunday at Camp Allegany) and the Kids’ Race, which will be held at 2 p.m. Sunday at the Camp Allegany infi eld. The cost to participate in the fi rst three events is $30, while the Kids Race is free.

Mark Lawrence, who runs www.heartrateup.

Allegany State Park Hosts Raccoon Rally

com, which hosts Raccoon Rally among numerous other outdoor athletic events throughout the year in Western New York, is keeping his fi ngers crossed for a favorable forecast for this year’s rally.

“We hope for terrifi cally comfortable weather, rain-free conditions and we always look forward to entertaining cyclists from throughout the country because it’s a beautiful destination,” he said.

The Road Race, according to Lawrence, takes place along a scenic 25-mile triangular path, while the Cross-Country Race occurs along wide rolling trails of varying lengths depending on the registered level of the rider. Levels include beginner, sport, expert and pro among others.

Courses and distances for the Kids’ Race depend on the weather conditions.

While the races focus primarily on speed and distance, the Bike Trials emphasize balance and control, as participating bikers will hop or balance on stationary objects such as rocks.

Cash prizes and medals will be awarded to top fi nishers. Awards will depend on the race and the category the cyclist rides under.

Besides the events, other aspects of the rally will include raffl es, a bike toss, food sales, bicycle demos and vendors.

Pre-registration has closed, so just come down and register the day of the rally. More event details at www.heartrateup.com.

By Mary FoxIn 1842 the citizens of

Cattaraugus County and adjoining counties celebrated the fourth of July at Ellicottville (then the Cattaraugus County seat) on Friday the 2nd of July. A national salute was given at sunrise, followed by a procession to “the grove” where the day was dedicated to Patriotic and Religious observances.National songs were performed by the band; prayers were given by the chaplain. A reading of the Declaration of Independence was given. A national hymn was sung by the children followed by a benediction. After this a dinner was served for the guests. In the evening a display of fi reworks and a balloon was sent up illuminated.

In 1876 the citizens of Ellicottville celebrated the centennial of the birth of the United States with the same patriotic zeal. Th e American fl ag and red, white and blue buntings hung from every house and business.

Amidst the fl ags and bunting the birth of our country was celebrated with patriotic speeches, a public recitation of the Declaration of Independence, and patriotic pageants and parades that honored our forefathers. Th e picnic with family and friends was the culmination of a meaningful day. Th e fi reworks at the end of the day reminded us of the battles our country has fought to keep the Declaration of Independence alive.

Following the speech making, a great patriotic parade was staged. Civil War heroes led

Ellicottville Times PastRemembering Th e 4th of July

troops of veterans, some with empty coat sleeves, some walking with a cane or crutch and some riding in carriages but all showing pride in their country.

Th e Ellicottville Band marched lively playing our nations anthem.

Wagons were profusely decorated with evergreen boughs, bunting and American fl ags.

Th e fi rst wagon, carrying beautiful girls in white bore the words, “Liberty and Union Now and Forever, One and Inseparable”.

Four young girls rode next to a Liberty Bell, formed from, hemlock twigs over a wooden frame declaring “Life, Liberty and Happiness”.

A wagon representing the Constitution, with a young lady bearing a banner of “Liberty”, another, the shield of “Equality”. Next came a wagon with three young ladies emblazoned with “Free Speech”, “Free Press” and “Free Assemblage”.

Another, “Free Schools”, “Free Religion” and “a Free People”.

A wagon carried the Little Red School House bearing the inscription, ”Free schools, the defense of the Nation” was followed by a long procession of school children with their teachers all carrying American Flags.

Th e second section of the

parade was devoted to early settlement. Th ere was a settlers’ ox-team and covered wagon bearing his family, household goods, provisions, a few hens, tools, and seeds for the next spring’s planting and leading a cow or two.

Th e old Plank Road Stage coach carried fi ve daughters of the fi rst settlers. Aunt Sally Johnston and Mrs. Chauncey J. Fox, daughters of Grove Hurlburt; Mrs. Hannah L. Skinner, daughter of Henry Saxton , Mrs. Henrietta Saxton, daughter of Jabez Blackmon and Mrs. Martha Harlin, daughter of David Gregory.

Th ere was a tableau depicting the clearing of the land and the browsing of cattle, the making of black salts and soft soap, with the leeching barrels of wood ashes and a great cauldron kettle in which to boil the lye. Barter among the settlers and trading with the Indians were also shown and a real Indian wigwam with a family of Seneca Indians, including a war chief with his tomahawk, scalping knife, bow and arrows, and a little papoose strapped to a board on its mother’s back.

Th ere was the old hand pumper Fire Engine followed by its company of fi re fi ghters.

Last came the mugwumps with their grotesque costumes and comical contraptions.

Th anks to “Th e Republican” newspaper article from 1842 and John H. Northrup’s 1936 speech about the 1876 celebration of the 4th of July, for leaving us this glimpse into Ellicottville’s past.

RESOLUTION NUMBER 12-07 OF THE TOWN OF ELLICOTTVILLE, NEW YORK, Adopted On June 20, 2012, Authorizing The Town As Short Term Lessee Of Real Property And Improvements, Identifi ed As S.B.L. 46.004-1-48, To Be Used As A Temporary Highway Garage.

Dated: June 20, 2012 Robyn George, Town Clerk, Town of Ellicottville

by Jeff ColeWith six farming districts

that contain more than 236,000 acres of land, Cattaraugus County is strongly characterized by its agricultural industry.

That is why agriculture is important enough to be one of six areas highlighted for future growth and development under a blueprint for the county’s new comprehensive plan. Agriculture was the featured topic of a public forum held June 21 at the Mansfi eld Town Hall, the second forum in a series of six to take place monthly throughout October to gather public input for the planning process that will develop the new comprehensive plan.

According to ww2.cattco.org, the county’s original comprehensive plan was adopted in 1978 and was intended to guide the development of the county through the year 2000. However, “a new comprehensive planning update is needed to address the challenges of the 21st century and build upon more recent planning initiatives.”

The plan’s purpose, the website further states, is “to provide a blueprint for the future growth and development of the county in the areas of land use, economic development, agriculture, the environment, transportation, infrastructure and arts and culture.”

The 20 Cattaraugus County citizens who attended the June 21 forum were divided into four groups to discuss and write

Cattaraugus County Comprehensive Plan: Our Agricultural Future

down what they perceive as strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats as they pertain to agriculture and farmland in the county.

Jim Ellis, of East Otto, said that he would like agriculture to remain as the No. 1 industry in Cattaraugus County. He stressed the importance of having an infrastructure that enables farmers to sell their products and said the government should “lay off and get their hands out of farmers’ business.

“They can’t keep saying you’re going to do this and you can’t do this. That, to me, is defi nitely wrong,” he said.

Lynn Telaak, an animal science teacher at BOCES’ Olean center and a Mansfi eld resident, said that she hopes the new comprehensive plan keeps agriculture a viable industry in the county. She said she would like to see the Cattaraugus County Farm Bureau’s ag-discovery tent, which is housed at the Cattaraugus County Fair

and helps to educate people on all phases of agriculture, integrated into a mobile program.

“We just started last year and we’ve had a really good response to it,” Telaak said of the ag-discovery tent.

As with Ellis, Telaak noted agriculture’s ranking as the No. 1 industry in the county and said that she hopes the “powers that be” in Cattaraugus County will recognize it as such.

“It does not get recognized as that,” she said. “Even in education, we were counting up tonight, there are three high schools that offer agriculture, and BOCES has two centers and there are about three classes between those two centers that are agriculturally oriented. In my BOCES district, there are fi ve school districts and I am their only opportunity at agriculture,” said Telaak, whose district includes Olean, Allegany, Hinsdale and Portville schools and Archbishop-Walsh Academy.

“None of them have an

ag-program in their school, so if their students want agriculture, the only thing they can get at our center now is animal science,” she said.

James Isaacson and Paul Bishop, both senior planners for Cattaraugus County, each identifi ed agriculture as being of great signifi cance to the county.

“I want to see it continue to exist at least at the level that it does and hopefully grow in the future,” said Bishop.

Isaacson said, “Agriculture is one of our top industries and it’s very important to us. We want to get some input from our citizens as to what the county can do to improve agriculture and make it more viable.”

Though the topics of economic development and agriculture have already been dealt with in two previous forums, the public can still weigh in on four more topics in order to potentially help shape the county’s new comprehensive plan in those areas.

Each public forum will center on one topic and light refreshments will be served. The remaining public forum topics and dates are as follows:

July 12 - Environmental and Natural ResourcesAug. 9 - Transportation and InfrastructureSept. 20 - Arts and CultureOct. 18 - Land Use

All public forums have scheduled start times of 6 p.m. The locations for the next four forums have not yet been determined.

Over the past two decades, I have been fortunate to have helped people from all fi tness levels to become fi tter and healthier through diet and exercise. The programs I created not only helped them look better, but also served as lifelong formulas to maximize performance and help maintain a higher quality of life.

As I stated in last week’s article, we tend to “lose” muscles as we age if we do not use them. I also used two words almost synonymously – strength training and resistance training. Most people understand why they need cardio – it burns fat and calories. What they don’t get is why they need to lift weights, too. Well, simply stated: You can’t move weight unless you lift weight.

Resistance training/

strength training/ weight lifting increases muscular strength and endurance, boosts energy, improves balance and fl exibility, and maintains or even builds bone density. It also powers up your metabolism, transforming your muscles into power fat burners. Weight training can burn from 250-400 calories in a 45-minute session plus keep your metabolism revving for at least an hour after training has stopped. Lifting weights will also fi rm and reshape your body, allowing you to fi t into smaller

sizes as it optimizes your body composition.

So, if you really want to transform your body, you have to add weight training. Instead of allowing inactivity and gravity to take over, lose the body fat and gain muscle and tone from head to toe. The more muscle you build the smaller you will look, especially if you are a woman. That’s because fat takes up much more space, actually fi ve times more space. In fact, when you train with weights, you actually use stored body fat to fuel the growth of your muscles. However,

you can help this process by fueling your body with proper nutrients and getting adequate rest.

If you’re a beginner to strength training, consulting with a certifi ed fi tness trainer would be the best place to safely develop a program that is right for you. If you are a novice and just need direction and a community of encouragement, join a fi tness

class that utilizes weight training to achieve their goals. Group fi tness classes can be a super way to get your groove on and become familiar and comfortable with strength training. A good instructor will always keep their eyes open to form fl aws and off er cues to assist you during class. Plus, there are always other participants in the class who have been where you are and are ready and willing to encourage and assist you in achieving your goals.

A reminder to the residents of the Village of Ellicottville:

In accordance with Local Law # 3 of 1982, amended by Local Law # 4 of 2011, in regard to brush and leaf collection.

Brush and leaves will be collected at curbside from April 1st to November 30th on the 1st Monday of each month.

Brush is defi ned by law as branches and trunk material from trees and shrubs grown on the premises, but the branches and trunk material must NOT be longer than four feet, nor wider in diameter than six inches. The Village WILL NOT collect cut grass, and cut grass shall NOT be placed at curbside for collection. Brush and leaves to be collected shall be placed at curbside by 7:00 a.m. on the day designated, but not more than 48 hours prior to such time. Brush and leaves from the premises are the ONLY vegetation which shall be so placed for collection.

There has been a recent problem with residents placing such materials at curbside for collection on other than the designated times. The Village D.P.W. cannot pick up these materials on a constant basis. Such piles of brush and leaves at curbside for several weeks detracts from the appearance of the Village.

Warning letters are being sent to those residents who have already done this, and it is asked that ALL residents follow the Law in the future. Thank you for your cooperation.

Natureʼs Remedy Introduces Naturopathic DoctorNatureʼs Remedy Introduces Naturopathic DoctorKristina C. Barlow, N.D.,

C.S.T., is a native Western New Yorker who moved to Ellicottville at the age of 5. At 18 years old, she ventured to Quinnipiac University in Connecticut, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Biology and a minor in Psychology. After years of varied experience in the Tri-State area, she returned to Connecticut to study Naturopathic Medicine. In 2009, she received her doctorate in naturopathic medicine at the University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine. She is a board certifi ed, Connecticut licensed

naturopathic doctor and has continued her education with further study of homeopathy and craniosacral therapy.

Naturopathy is a combination of nature cure, homeopathy, hydrotherapy, spinal manipulation, massage, craniosacral therapy, Bach fl ower essences and many other natural therapies. Nature cure was a system created in 19th century Europe for treating diseases with natural agents such as water, air, diet, herbs and sunshine. Homeopathy has the power to bring healing to physical, mental and emotional symptoms caused by

a disturbance or imbalance in one’s vital force. Hydrotherapy is the use of water in many forms and applications, with cold water being the major force

of healing. Craniosacral therapy, discovered by an osteopath at the turn of the 20th century, is a light, hands-on touch therapy producing deep relaxation and released of restrictions in the connective tissue. Naturopathic

Medicine is the application of the principles of naturopathy within the context of modern scientifi c knowledge that has evolved throughout the last half

of this century.“What I love about

naturopathic medicine is the support it provides for any disease. Neither the symptoms nor the diagnosis are treated but rather the person and their

health. It makes sense that all of us need to be treated with anything that promotes healing,” said Barlow. “As we continually treat our bodies with benefi cial modalities we always see positive changes. Conversely, continue to treat your body abusively and you will see changes … just not positive ones. My goal is to fi nd out how to eliminate the ‘trash’ from the body, to stop the ‘trash’ from coming into the body, to replenish what is depleted and to stimulate the Qi or the energy. This provides freedom for the body’s innate ability to heal itself.

“Since graduating in 2009, I have come to specialize in mental and emotional health along with neurological and

musculoskeletal dysfunctions. Although I treat each person with an individualized approach, I have seen great success in treating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, thought disorders, insomnia, eating disorders and addictions with utilizing homeopathy, craniosacral therapy, hydrotherapy, detoxifi cation, botanical medicine, diet and neurotransmitter/hormone/immune system testing and treatment.”

by Rebecca LaBordeSt. John’s Episcopal

Church located on the corner of Washington and Jeff erson streets in the Village of Ellicottville is the oldest church in Cattaraugus County. It was built in 1837 and this year marks their 175th anniversary.

To commemorate this occasion, St. John’s will be providing music on the lawn at the Historical Society’s Strawberry Festival. Ellicottville native, Will Lowry, a guitarist, singer and songwriter, will be providing the music on the courthouse lawn at noon on July 1. Lowry began writing music to refl ect his faith in Jesus and in 1979 recorded his fi rst album of original music entitled “Mystery.”

Richard Chase, St. Johns’ senior warden and member of the vestry, said, “There is so much history surrounding St. John’s Church.”

The original deed states the last was owned by the Holland Land Company. Joseph Ellicott was a surveyor for the Holland Land Company, which donated the land for the church in 1834 and also donated the other three corners in downtown Ellicottville to the city. The church board borrowed $600 from the Trinity Church in New York City to build the church.

They still have the old-fashioned pews with

St. John’s Celebrates 175th Anniversary

doors on them that served to keep them warm. The church didn’t have central heat, so people would bring in heating pots and the doors served to keep the heat inside their enclosure. The windows in the church are made of poured glass from 1837. St. John’s still has the original pedal organ that they purchased in 1844. In 1856, they got a pump organ and they used to pay someone 10 cents a service to pump the organ. It is

now run on electricity.The bell in the steeple

is made out of silver is perfectly balanced. It is the oldest bell in the U.S. that is still in use. This special bell traveled all the way from Malaga, Spain, where it hung in a mission for 120 years. It was then shipped to America for $125. After arriving, it was transported up the Hudson, through the Erie Canal and was brought to Ellicottville by oxcart.

The bell also served

multiple purposes. It alerted the community that church was beginning, and it was also used in the 1840s as the town’s fi re alarm and timer, which rang the time three times a day.

Chase has a lot of information about the history of the church and the community he grew up in. “Ellicottville started out in agriculture, lumber and manufacturing. Fitzpatrick & Weller were the world’s largest manufacturer of wood shoe last blocks. Then it shifted into skiing and now it’s more of a tourism industry,” he stated.

Chase explained that St. John’s Church holds their church service on Saturday evening to accommodate the skiers who want to get up early Sunday morning and hit the slopes before they go home. Another way they serve the community is with a living manger scene every Christmas season.

“We bring in camels, goats and donkeys. Kids that attend come to the church and ring the bell. It is a yearly tradition for some kids,” Chase said.

If you are interested in touring the church and getting more information on its history, call (716) 699-4694. Tours will be available in the afternoon the day of the Historic Society’s Strawberry Festival on July 1.

By Eva PotterOne look at Keith

McKale’s artwork and it quickly becomes obvious he is a precision worker by trade. While he may hold an engineering degree, McKale is not afraid to follow his artistic talents into the realm of

Ellicottville Library Spotlights Ellicottville Library Spotlights Artist Keith McKaleArtist Keith McKale

woodcarving.McKale has been

showing and selling his intricately carved wood artwork at local galleries, festivals and art shows since 2011. Currently, you can see his work displayed in the lobby of the Ellicottville Memorial Library at 6499 Maples Rd. in Ellicottville. The show will hang until July 29.

Stop at the library to see McKale’s Celtic love spoons, hand carved from butternut, chipped carved Celtic crosses made of butternut and basswood, as well as scroll-sawed pieces like a bald eagle, buff alo, tree and a special piece he calls “Racing the Storm.”

He said, “The ‘Racing the Storm’ piece is a sailboat under full sail, and I used a piece of black walnut with a decorative knot in the upper corner that looks like a pending storm moving in. You kind of have to see it!”

A self-taught artist, McKale said he has been working with wood all his life. His father was an amateur ornithologist, so McKale grew up watching and studying birds and began carving what he saw in nature. His father was

also a talented furniture maker, woodworker and bird carver, adding to McKale’s genetic talents.

He describes himself as a nature lover and outdoorsman, and enjoys hiking and backpacking with his son. To create many of his carvings, he uses hardwoods and softwoods from his own trees on his property near Ellicottville, which also houses his Fern Wood Art studio.

Recently, McKale participated in an intensive bird-carving workshop and has begun exhibiting bird sculptures including a Red-breasted Nuthatch.

He said, “I am going to be adding hand-carved and painted birds and feathers to my portfolio of work. I have several songbirds under way, as well as several feathers in the wood burning stages that I will be displaying soon.”

“I have made my home near Ellicottville, and believe there is nothing more relaxing and fulfi lling than an evening carving on my front porch!” he said.

The Ellicottville Memorial Library is located at 6499 Maples Road in Ellicottville, NY.

Hours are 10 a.m.–5 p.m. daily except Sunday. Evening hours are 5–8 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday.

master plan development on an approximate 5-acre site within the Town of Ellicottville limits.

McNalley, a HoliMont homeowner, wishes to change the name to Glen Burn Trail and to begin construction on show models with buildings 13, 14 and 15 to be ready by this fall. The model homes will offer versatile options for building size and layout, garage and bedroom layouts, upstairs or downstairs kitchens, decks, landscaping – all of which affect the exterior architectural design – therefore needing a “variable/conditional” approval from the planning board. Building colors and materials have not been chosen yet and architectural plans were not submitted as such. Signage is still in development.

Chairperson Signore commented that “this isn’t anything we’ve done before,” when talking about a giving approval for a project that hasn’t submitted the normal required documents, but is relying on the previously approved master plan. Board members, including Carol Horowitz and Mark Alianello, Calarco and McNally discussed the details for almost an hour and a half before settling on “conditional approval.” The developer will begin construction for

Town Planning BoardCont. from Front Page

Units 13, 14, and 15, with four stipulations that must be met, which include: 1) revised architectural drawings complete with color, trim and window details including more aesthetically pleasing window placements on end units, 2) 15-foot setbacks from parent parcel boundaries, 3) 72- foot separation between the fronts of buildings, and 4) approval only applies to Units 13, 14 and 15, and any future building must be presented for approval.

According to Calarco, “Taking over someone else’s development project is a challenge, and we are simply trying to work within the previously established parameters. Certain amendments will have to be made and those revisions will ultimately help the sales of the project. We had to request an amended site plan and determine whether the changes were de minimis or substantial, among other details. ”

The next agenda item was a presentation by Chris Woods for the Tim Hortons project at the current town barns/garage site. Architectural drawings were submitted, which detailed the two-story building. Tim Hortons will occupy approximately 2,000 square feet of a total 3,700 square feet

on the fi rst fl oor. No additional tenants have been named yet. Plans are for six apartments on the second story. Details of the drive-thru lane were discussed, and according to the developer, Ray Moranda, 60-70 percent of Tim Hortons’ business is drive-thru business. A required variance for the front parking setback was discussed. If all the proper requirements are met and approvals are given, Tim Hortons hopes to be open by mid-October. The Department of Transportation, Zoning Board of Appeals and Cattaraugus County Planning Board approvals must be acquired. A public hearing will be scheduled for July 23, 2012, at 6 p.m. and will take place during the regular planning board meeting.

“According to Ray Moranda, 60-70% of Tim Hortons’ business is drive-thru business.”

The last item for the board to approve was to schedule a public hearing for Coldspring Construction, which is applying for a renewal of their special use permit for the gravel mine on Canada Hill Road. This hearing will take place at 6:10 p.m. during the July 23 regular planning board meeting.

What makes a place a good place to live? Education? Sports? The outdoors? The arts? The Cattaraugus County Arts Council (CCAC) believes it takes all these elements to achieve a balanced and high quality of life and is doing its part to raise the profi le of arts and culture in our region. To support those eff orts, CCAC is hosting the third annual Cause for Celebration Raffl e. The drawing party takes place on July 14 from 6 p.m.—8 p.m. at 100 W. Main Street in Allegany.

Raffl e tickets cost $100 each and admit two adults to the drawing party. Only 100 tickets will be sold to this exclusive event, giving each ticketholder a 1 in 100 chance of winning one of six original works of art by six of the

Win Original Artwork and Enhance Win Original Artwork and Enhance Quality of LifeQuality of Life

region’s premiere artists. (Once you win, you’re out of the running for the remaining artwork.) The raffl e drawing takes place towards the end of the event, but ticketholders do not need to be present to win.

Anne Conroy-Baiter, CCAC’s executive director, notes, “The raffl e drawing event itself is worth the price of the ticket. We have it catered by Sheila Darrow, who makes interesting, delicious food, and off er free happy hour drinks. Plus there’s that nice pop of suspense toward the end of the evening when we draw the winners’ names.”

The real draw though is the artwork itself. Repeat donors Mikel Wintermantel, C.M., and Nance Jackson, as

well as new supporting artists including Thomas Paquette, Barbara Fox, Anne Mormile, and Debra Eck have donated some of the best work. The collection has a total net worth over $9,000. Images of the artwork as well as background information on the artists are currently on display at www.myartscouncil.net.

This is an extremely important event for CCAC as one of its major fundraising eff orts of the year. Proceeds will be used to help fund a year of workshops, kids’ classes, Routes to Art, contemporary exhibitions, community improvements, and advocacy for quality of life in the Southern Tier.

Conroy-Baiter said,

“We host two major fundraisers a year to help close the gap between earned income and our operating costs. The fi rst is the raffl e, and we will also present the 5x7: Art for Everyone event on November 17. Artists from all over the world will donate 5-inch by 7-inch pieces of artwork, which will be all be available for $25 to make the artwork accessible to anyone. Last year the art was 6 inches square, but we decided to change it to an easier-to-frame size. The event was a wild success last year, and we hope to top it in 2012.”

You can view the artwork to be raffl ed and purchase tickets online at wwww.myartscouncil.net or call (716) 372-7455.

“Livin the life of Riley” – a phrase kiddingly used by Chef Patrick Wooldridge and his brother-in-law. That’s how Riley’s got its name. The restaurant has a relaxed atmosphere and wonderful dishes by Chef Patrick and his staff. Riley’s is located on Route 219 just north of Ellicottville and once housed restaurants like The Blue Denim, Gypsy’s and Stone Creek. Food and hospitality is their business, and Patrick and his wife Terry dole it out in generous portions.

Patrick has been in the restaurant business for 30 years. He was born in Western New York and obtained his chef’s degree in Chicago at Washburne Trade School. He ran establishments such as The Bethlehem Steel Management Club in Burns Harbor, Ind., and Alexander’s Steak & Seafood House outside Chicago where he won the People’s Choice Award for Best Cuisine for four consecutive years.

Patrick and Terry moved back to Western New York to be close to family. He then helped open and establish The Legacy Restaurant in Springville in 2000 and won an award for Best Appetizer at The Taste of the Southtowns for his delicious seafood bisque chowder. Patrick worked at The Legacy until 2005 when

Tasting Ellicottville: Riley’s Bar and Restaurant

he came to a local restaurant for a couple of years. Yearning to open his own restaurant and to do what he does best – create awesome food –with the help of family and friends, Riley’s became a reality.

Riley’s menu offers fresh homemade soups like seafood bisque chowder and French wild leek au gratin in cup, bowl or quart-to-go sizes. Appetizers range from chicken wings, Saganaki, clams casino, shrimp cocktail, four-cheese artichoke dip, Maryland crab cakes and fresh fried chips. Salads are served with a complimentary cup of soup du jour and include the house garden salad, walnut crusted goat cheese and spinach (my favorite), chicken souvlaki salad and teriyaki steak salad. Pasta dishes include lobster and saffron ravioli with Alfredo sauce, chicken bruschetta and angel

hair pasta, shrimp scampi-stuffed ravioli with a white cheddar cheese sauce and homemade vegetable lasagna. Entrees include a NY strip steak with Burgundy mushrooms, roasted half duckling with raspberry sauce, chicken Oscar, chicken Marsala, award-winning hickory-buttered baby back ribs, apple-stuffed Canadian pork tenderloin Madeira, baked orange roughy with garlic and lemon butter, haddock fi sh fry or baked Italiano, baked scallops, macadamia crab-stuffed shrimp Monterey and Riley’s fi let.

On Friday, Saturday and Sunday only, you can feast on prime rib or garlic-roasted Chicago prime rib. All of these entrees include a cup of soup and house salad with homemade dressings. The house dressing is a cranberry vinaigrette with

bleu cheese crumbles. The desserts are all mouthwatering and homemade by Terry. Try a turtle cheesecake or peanut butter pie, to name just a couple.

If you prefer a lighter fare, try one of their sandwiches: beef on weck, Riley›s burger with a choice of additional toppings, an Eiffel Tower croissant or a Reuben. Also available are chicken fi ngers and fries, and a lobster and mushroom melt. There are also daily specials like liver, onions and bacon, tacos, chicken and biscuits, and turkey or bison burgers, to name a few. You never go away hungry from a meal at Riley’s.

A pool table is adjacent to the bar, and there is an entrance to the bar area and another to the dining rooms. They offer a full-service bar with a great variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Choose from domestic, premium and draft beers and ales, and nice selections of wine by the bottle or the glass. Gift certifi cates are available and they welcome private parties, rehearsal dinners, bridal or baby showers with a special banquet menu. All menu items are available for take-out if you prefer. Stop by, say Hello to Patrick & Terry and feel like you too are “living the life of Riley.” You can call the restaurant at (716) 699-2359.

Riley’s Bar and Restaurant is located on Rte 219 just north of Ellicottville.

Unplayable ballIf your ball lies up against a tree or in some other equally bad spot outside a water hazard,

you yourself must decide whether you can play it from there or not. If you decide it’s playable, you must play it as it lies. But, if you decided it isn’t…you must go back to the spot from which you played it and play a new ball, adding one penalty stroke. Or…under a one-stroke penalty, you may either (1) drop a ball any distance behind the point where the ball lay, keeping that point directly between the hole and the spot on which the ball is to be dropped, or (2) drop a ball within two club-lengths of the point where the ball lay, but not nearer to the hole. If the ball lay in a bunker, you must drop a ball in the bunker.
