By Sue WhistlerYes, Labor Day is just

a memory – the leaves are already starting to turn and you’ve just defl ated your water wings and started to pack up the deck furniture.

Just when you thought it was time to start splitting fi rewood and replacing the furnace fi lter, there’s a reprieve. The summer party season isn’t quite over, at least not here in the hills of the Southern Tier.

Beginning this Friday, there are several events happening all over beautiful Cattaraugus County that will delight and entertain even the most discerning weekend visitor and their entire family.

There’ll be music in the air and dancing in the streets of Ellicottville, which will be lined

with over 200 classic hotrods, convertibles, trucks and vintage sports cars on display for the 14th annual Classic Car Show. Brian McFadden, executive director of the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce, calls Rock N’ Roll Weekend “one of Ellicottville’s most loved events.”

Every restaurant and bar in town has booked their own weekend lineup of great live music. It’s a fun way to end the summer season on a high note, especially when those notes come from some of the best rock n’ roll and blues bands in the area. All the hullabaloo and live entertainment starts on

Supervisor Dan Brown opened the meeting of the Great Valley Town Board at 7:08 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 10, with the pledge to the fl ag.

Brown reported that the new salt building is fi nished except for the concrete fl oor. The 60-foot by 12-foot building took fi ve days to build. Brown pointed out that it was not built with borrowed monies or money from the budget but with money saved from other projects.

Brown said that property maintenance is a problem in Great Valley. The present enforcement policy needs to be stronger. A new procedure to approach people needs to be developed. Code Offi cer Rob

The application of Deborah Maroney to serve on the Great Valley Planning Board

was accepted. Maroney is a planning specialist who worked with the Cattaraugus County Department of Economic

Development, Planning and Tourism.

Yvonne Darts, planning board chairperson, reported that the Cory Brown Gravel Pit is being purchased by Fred Perkins. The planning board will go over the application and their plans at the Sept. 12 Great Valley Planning Board m eeting. The tractor-trailer training will be moved behind the buildings and the DOT has approved a new access road from Route 219.

Under New Business, Brown expressed that “we need to be proactive in addressing future zoning laws regarding gravel pits and plan now for reclaiming the Great Valley gravel pits for recreational and housing development. We can

By Jennie AcklinThe regular meeting of the Ellicottville Village Board was held on Sept. 10 at 6 p.m. Mayor Charles Coolidge opened the meeting, entertaining comments from the fl oor pertaining to a new garbage contract. Concerns were raised as to whether businesses might potentially be assessed for trash pickup as part of their sewer bill or if it is a (potential) residential fee only.

“We don’t know prices yet and who might be charged what amount,” said Coolidge.

The new garbage bids were due to be opened last week, but the Village was notifi ed at the last minute that the Department of Labor form must be included in the bid packet, which it was not, so new bid packets were sent out to all interested parties. New bids are expected to be received and opened Sept. 17. Village Board members will review all bid details and discuss the results at the October board meeting. Board members discussed the length of contract (one, two or three

Etta Walker, Anneen Barrera, Lucie Olson show some of the fundraising items for the Nicaraguan Educational Fund, which raises money for school supplies, uniforms, tuition and other educational expenses for schools based in San Juan del Sur. The fundraising party is Wednesday, September 26 from 6-8:30pm at The Birdwalk, which will include a basket full of Nigaraguan coffee, jewelry, pottery, Aztec woven wallets, locally painted artwork, a ceramic wall hanging, and a tshirt. EZ3 will be playing music.

By Mary Fox“It’s time to party!” On

Sept. 26 at the Birdwalk Restaurant in Ellicottville Anneen Barrera and Lucie Olson will be holding their annual Nicaraguan Education Fund Party and everyone is welcome.

Barrera has spent three months for each of the past fi ve years in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua. San Juan del Sur is a tourist resort town with sun, sand and surfers from around the world. The plush hotels, beaches and quaint streets of the tourist district make a sharp contrast to the poverty found in the town and surrounding jungle villages.

Barrera and Olson, retired teachers from A l l e g a n y - L i m e s t o n e Central School, help provide through donated funds educational needs, such as school uniforms, books, supplies and tuitions, for children living there in poverty. “All money raised is strictly 100 percent used for kids’ education,” said Barrera.

Every year someone comes down to help out or just to visit and gets very involved. A retired administrator from A l l e gany-L imestone , Etta Walker, went down to see what these two ladies were doing and got involved. She uses her administrative skills to organize the work and keep data records. Walker also does the power point

presentation of their time there.

In San Juan del Sur, Barrera and Olson met Dave Jones, a tourist from Wyoming who showed an interest in what they were doing. Sponsored by his local Rotary in Gillette, Wyo., he along with volunteers bring suitcases full of tools and spend two weeks doing fi x-up work on the school buildings. Local students and parents are expected to help with the labor and do so willingly.

“I think we’re doing a lot of good,” said Olson. “Sometimes it’s slower seeing the results because you don’t see the fi nished product for a few years. Dave comes down and you can see right away what he has accomplished.”

Barrera, Olson and Jones work through Jane Mirandette, who along with the local priest, Fr. Bismark Cruz identifi es where the needs are the greatest.

Mirandette, who has a foundation for libraries in Colorado, founded the small library in San Juan de Sur. Books are acquired from any source possible

The small library off ers bi-lingual books as well as Spanish and English. Each day the “book mobile” (an old pickup truck with large plastic bins) heads out to one of the 33 jungle schools where the children are able to choose two books to use until the

bookmobile comes back in a month. The books are poured over excitedly and the children take a great deal of time picking out their selections while they discuss them amongst each other.

If you want to join Barrera and Olson in providing educational needs to the children of San Juan del Sur, come to the Birdwalk Party on Sept. 26 from 6-8:30 p.m. There will be pizza compliments of the Birdwalk, wings provided by the Clinton Restaurant in Salamanca, appetizers, sandwiches and desserts and a Chinese auction for baskets donated by businesses, and individuals. One basket defi nitely worth bidding on is full of things from Nicaragua. The band EZ3 will be providing music for the event and there will be an ongoing presentation where you can see what they do in Nicaragua.

If you can’t make it to the party, you can send a check payable to Aneen Barrera with Nicaragua Education Fund memo, to P.O. Box 7, Ellicottville, NY 14731.

This is a place where you can give back for all the blessings you enjoy here, and know it is all being used for its intended purpose.

“We have had a good life. We have so much and they have so little. We are giving a little bit back in a way we know how,” said Olson.

Rock N Roll or what used to be Rock N Oldies Weekend is here again. This is truly one of, if not the best, and most FUN weekend we get to experience here in Ellicottville. Wonderful Rock N Roll music plus an unbelievably neat Classic Car Show are the highlights of this really FUN weekend. Along with these neat happenings, we still do have some good golf available - just give either Holiday Valley or Elkdale Country Club a call, make a Tee time, then get out and enjoy what is left of our summer.

The music and other FUN Stuff for the week beginning today Friday September 14, 2012 through Thursday September 20, 2012 looks quite good. We have fi fteen Bands, three DJ’s, one complete with a Karaoke Show, several Sound System Music Events plus all the great food and drink specials that will be happening in the wonderful clubs and restaurants. All of this will greatly enhance the FUN and good times for Rock N Roll Weekend & the following week.

Like we do most weeks, let’s fi rst take a look at some of the neat Ellicottville locations that are music free, yet are a great places to enjoy great meals and FUN times.

The Depot, will be open Friday through Sunday. Yes, their pizza and wing specials will be there. For Rock N Roll Weekend, The Depot’s Super Sound System will be playing the tunes of “The Rolling Stones” and “AC/DC”.

Just east of Ellicottville, The Birdwalk Restaurant & Antique Shop will also be serving up their great gourmet pizza specials along with a fi ne dinning menu that will have you returning for sure. Also remember, The Birdwalk’s catfi sh is the best.

Tips Up Cafe is a wonderful restaurant located on Washington Street. So as we say every week, along with their excellent and well prepared fi ne dinning menu you will get to experience, what we call, Ellicottville’s local home town service with a Tips Up Cafe Smile. This is a great place to enjoy a wonderful dinner.

Then on Monroe Street, The Barn Restaurant, another local and family friendly place, offers great food, especially the Friday Fish Fry, and drink specials along with all ages friendly service. All of this creates an atmosphere that is a FUN Barn Experience.

Now on to the music of Rock N Roll Weekend & Week: Balloons starts us off at 7:00 PM Friday with “The A List”. This is a veteran fi ve-piece band from Niagara Falls playing classic to pop to southern rock tunes from the last sixty years in a style similar to the original artists. We will hear tunes from KC & The Sunshine Band to Skynyrd, Dobie Gray to Steely Dan, Rod Stewart to Journey and many more. Their previous Balloons Gigs have been among the best. Following “The A List”, “Personable DJ John Barry” will be in Balloons Sound & Light Booth taking over the party already in place with his really FUN, LIVE “Personality Show Off Show”. John’s shows always include a neat danceable selection of tunes and good Party-Time FUN till close.

Returning to 9:00 PM Friday, The Gin Mill will have “Live & Kickin” set up and doing their “Live Music for all Occasions” show. This three-piece party and good time rock band plays to the desires of their audience and really does create a good party time. Their main focus is classic rock. However, depending on the desires of The Gin Mill Crowd, they may venture into other areas of music. For sure, it will be a good time in The Gin Mill this Friday night. Also remember The Gin Mill serves their great and reasonably priced menu until Midnight on weekends. This includes a great fi sh fry.

Also at 9:00 PM The PUB in Great Valley will have “DJ Felony” along with his Karaoke Show in house. Therefore, The PUB patrons not only will get to hear “DJ Felony’s” neat selection of tunes, they will also get to choose to be part of The Karaoke Show or just kick back and enjoy The PUB good times “DJ Felony” creates.

Moving to Saturday at 4:00 PM, Kabobs Kafe will have “Bruce Dominessy” doing his “Me, Myself & I” solo acoustic jazzy gig. Like we say every week, this is a super, easy listening and a very neat way to kick off your Saturday evening. Just stop in Kabob’s Kafe, enjoy the music, a cocktail and a great Kabob’s Kafe Dinner.

Next at 6:00 PM Saturday Balloons will host “Blues Child”, a fi ve-piece, extremely Hi-Energy, Crossover to Rockin Blues to

Classic Rock Band. This band has a lot of experience with really good party music. They did a Balloons Gig last April and put on a show that had the appreciative crowd up and PARTY-N all night long. Like their promo says, “You will love their Jethro Tull Tunes”. Following “Blues Child”, The party will continue with “DJ Flakey Frank Watson”, “The Party Monster” doing his rendition of an innovative plan of party continuation from Balloons Sound & Light Booth. “DJ Flakey Frank”, has extended his pass from The Disoriented DJ Home, allowing him to provide his trend setting & danceable selection of tunes plus chit/chat til close.

Returning to 6:30 PM Madigans will have a new band for Ellicottville in-house, “The South City Band”. From their web site, this fi ve-piece band plays an energetic blend of classic and acoustic Rock N Roll that will have The Madigans Party Crowd up dancin & singing along. Their song list includes several decades of wonderful artists including America, Stones, Neil Young, Beatles, Steely Dan, The Who and many more.

Then at 9:00 PM Saturday we will have two bands performing. First “The Untouchables” will be doing a gig in The Ellicottville Brewing Company. “The Untouchables”, a 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. Their last EBC SHOW was one of the best.

Also at 9:00 PM Saturday “West” will be ROCKIN The Gin Mill. This Olean Classic Rock Band has performed in Ellicottville for over fi fteen years. Ron and Terry, who are the heart and soul of “West”, always put on an excellent Rock N Roll Show. Their tunes are mainly cover from the last several decades done in “True West Style”. This wonderful band has become a true Gin Mill Regular Band and that is a good thing.

Now on to Sunday, which we hope will be a better day for The Bills. Besides our wonderful All Day Classic Car Show, we will have two 2:00 PM music gigs. First “Terry Buchwald” will begin his “Elvis Impersonation Show” in our Town Park Gazebo. Poodle Skirts and slicked back hair will prevail as we all get to remember the days and music of Elvis Presley, The King of Rock & Roll.

Also at 2:00 PM Balloons will have “Breakaway” on their music stage. “Breakaway”, a fi ve-piece rock band consisting of fi ve very experienced musicians from several different bands has, in previous shows here, put on excellent shows. Their song list includes a very wide variety of cover tunes from the sixties through the nineties including The

Monkeys, Skynyrd, 38 Special, Journey and Styx just to name a few.

WOW what a weekend, and The FUN just keeps Happenin next week with six bands playing here in our village.

First on Monday, The Gin Mill at 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”. Their music and the performance of vocalist Liz Boberg is among the best we get to see here in Ellicottville. So stop by The Gin Mill this Monday to enjoy a great spaghetti dinner and wonderful music by “Home Made Jam”. M o n d a y rounds out at 10:00 PM Sharp with Madigans Church on Monday. Reverend Jack accompanied by Deacon Dan will have the house BOPPIN & ROCKIN to the beat of their original Honky Tonk to Rock-A-Billy tunes that they do in their own FUN and entertaining way. Thereby extending Madigans Rock N Roll Weekend FUN.

As we all know, this Gin Mill Tradition of over twenty years is a really FUN music night in Ellicottville and The Gin Mill has it going every Wednesday.

Also at 8:00 PM Wednesday, Balloons will have “Bobby Henrie & The Goners” performing. According to their web site “Bobby Henrie & The Goners” are a three-piece group formed in 1985 that plays “authentic Rockabilly and Roots Rock N Roll in the tradition of musicians that defi ned the genre in 1950’s”. Balloons will be ROCKIN.

Moving to Thursday at 7:00 PM Balloons will host another traveling blues band, “The Reverend Raven & The Chain Smokin Alter Boys”. Here we have a fi ve-piece veteran Chicago Blues Band that has won several Blues Music awards and has been nominated for several more.

Then at 8:00 PM Thursday “Freddie & Friends” will be ROCKIN The Gin Mill. This week’s version will include Freddie and RT for sure. After that we are little unsure.

To mark the 150th Anniversary of the Civil

Brown proposed the board take a fi eld trip to see what a reclaimed gravel pit can do for Great Valley in the future.

“We should be interested in what other towns have done with reclaiming mining holes and what possibilities there are for Great Valley,” said Brown. “If you really want to control a gravel pit, have a plan for how it will look when it’s done. It’s gonna happen whether we are prepared for it or not. Let the planning and zoning boards work on it. It can include residents and board members. “

Great Valley Town BoardCont. from Front Page

Also under New Business, Ken Hinman of the Ellicottville Town Board informed the board that a committee formed in Ellicottville is looking into building an area recreational trail leading around the towns of Ellicottville and Great Valley. Hinman said no specifi c route has been determined yet.

“It is coming your way,” Hinman said. “Great Valley is the key to the success of this path. We will be asking someone from here (Great Valley) to be on the committee.”

Hinman pointed out that he was merely informing the board at this point, but that the

Hall building and gazebo is the primary concern, and all board members were in agreement.

Sewer ReportInstallation of the creek fl ow

meter was the primary activity. The wire and conduit were run and buried, and the installation process was reviewed with Nussbaumer & Clarke Engineering.

Constable’s ReportHoward Gifford reviewed

the Constable’s Report. Three vehicle and traffi c summonses were issued, plus fi ve warnings. Traffi c control assistance was also provided during the DPW’s sidewalk replacement project, and during the removal of the seven large trees. A total of eight residence checks were done during August. Three open-container warnings were issued and several residents received warnings for improper brush piles. Three major events were held in Ellicottville during August (Jazz & Blues Fest, Taste of Ellicottville and Centurion Cycling) and the Gifford was involved with

At 34 consecutive years, Mississauga’s Mayor Hazel McCallion is the longest-serving mayor in Canada. “Hurricane Hazel” has been in the media spotlight a lot lately because her birth date happens to coincide with the outbreak of the War of 1812. Hazel has promised to retire either at the end of this term or when she smashes up another lamp post, whichever comes fi rst.

And Stubbs is the longest-serving mayor of the little town of Talkeetna, Alaska. The 900 residents just love the guy and the vast majority of citizens believe he’s the best mayor they’ve ever had.

“He doesn’t raise our taxes. He doesn’t interfere with business. And he’s honest,” says Laurie Stec, operator of Talkeetna’s general store.

It seems nobody in town has a bad thing to say about the mayor except occasionally he misses his litter box and once he showed up at a council meeting with a mouse in his mouth.

Yes Mr. Stubbs, a fi fteen-year-old yellow Manx has been the mayor of Talkeetna, Alaska for the past fi fteen years! He was just a playful little kitten when town voters passed on the human candidates offi cially posted on the ballot and elected Stubbs in a write-in vote. (Exactly how bleak is your political future when your resume shows you once lost an election to a candidate who cleans himself with his tongue?)

Stubbs likes to be chucked

under the chin by his constituents as well and being picked up and cuddled so yeah, he at least has those things in common with the mayor of Mississauga.

With near-unanimous popular support he has not been challenged for the offi ce since 1997. Stubbs might be the only mayor of any town in the world who sheds and scratches himself in public.

Stubbs offi cial residence is Nagley’s General Store where about 40 tourists come by every day for a pet and a celebrity photograph. Not one for the limelight, he tolerates a few gawkers and then retreats to the back lot near the dumpster to sleep. As politics go, Stubbs is the only elected offi cial in the history of politics to take more afternoon naps than Ronald Reagan.

Stubbs looking all of his fi fteen years these days has more than 10,000 friends on Facebook. That’s 10,000 friends! Today you couldn’t fi nd 10,000 people in the city of Toronto who would now admit to voting for Mayor Rob Ford. When residents of Toronto were asked in a recent informal survey how they felt about Talkeetna’s four-footed mayor, more than 75% of respondents used the word “jealous” in their response.

Although the election of a cat to the offi ce of mayor may sound like an amazing achievement, let’s remember, it’s Alaska eh? Those people also elected Sarah Palin

governor. Given these two democratic abnormalities you can probably count on a young and ambitious Border Collie from Nome becoming the fi rst canine member of the United States Senate.

Apparently Stubbs does not like former Governor Sarah Palin nor her sense of humour. Remember the joke that endeared her to Americans for all of a day and a half? “What’s the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? Lipstick!”

No, no, Stubbs will not tolerate pit bull references, in fact he is currently championing a bill that would require all canines to be double-leashed and any dog caught treeing a cat would be garden-hosed in public. While not naming Palin specifi cally, Stubbs is fond of telling tourists at the general store that he has never ever seen a Russian Blue from his porch.

A crafty legislator, Stubbs has previously legalized Columbian catnip, designated the human lap as public property and started a “treats-on-demand” policy for all cats as well as a free ball of string giveaway program for bored kittens. Stubbs was once charged with assault on a town councilor who dared to bring up the issue of “declawing.”

The Guinness Book of Records lists Stubbs’ rise to mayor as the most mind boggling election in the history of democracy … except of course for George W. Bush’s

second term.One employee at the general

store did say that Stubbs can be rather demanding as it gets close to mealtime. Food on demand!?! Wow! The similarities between the mayors of Talkeetna and Toronto are uncanny.

Staff at the general store claim they have actually heard Stubbs laugh out loud while watching his favourite sport on TV – several hundred stupid canines hauling humans from Anchorage to Nome for 12 days straight. They say when Stubbs hears the word “mush” he falls off the couch in a fi t of laughter.

“He’s good. Probably the best we’ve ever had,” says Laurie Stec, owner of the general store and therefore Stubbs owner as well. Plus he’s saved Talkeetna residents thousands of dollars by not fl ying off to that annual meeting of American mayors where he would be a real curiosity fi gure but not much of a keynote speaker.

House pets as political leaders – could we do any worse?

project is underway. “The possibility has become

a reality,” Hinman said. “Funding is being sought and we would like to work with you in getting grants and sponsors.”

Because the Ellicottville and Great Valley have no safe, “off-road,” traffi c-free routes for recreational activities like biking, jogging and rollerblading , the concept of a recreational trail has recently garnered positive attention as a way to provide another recreational outlet for area residents and tourists coming to our region.

Brown responded positively

and stated, “In a survey taken for our Comprehensive Zoning Plan, people wanted recreational trails, so we can be right on board with this too.”

Realtors agree that recreational trails enhance can property values, especially in resort communities.

According to Hinman, two of the most important aspects of this project are working respectfully with landowners and identifying sources of funding, such as grants and fundraising.

The meeting was adjourned at 8:15 p.m. The next board meeting is scheduled for Oct. 8.

Five permits were issued during August, including the demolition permit from Peter Kreinheder for EBC (demolition photo below). A permit for renovation to Tops Market entrance was received and the project is well underway. Ellicott Development applied for a renovation permit for 3 Mill St.

Engineer’s ReportTown Engineer Mike Smith

reviewed the stream gauge installation status. As part of the DEC’s creek discharge consent order, a stream fl ow meter must be purchased and installed by the end of September 2012. A letter from the Empire State Development Offi ce was presented, which identifi ed Ellicottville’s East Water Tank project’s consolidated funding application as being selected by the Western New York Regional Council as a “Recommended

Priority Project.” The next step in the funding process is to wait and see if WNY is selected out of all the state’s regions. This announcement is anticipated before early November.

Special Events ReportPatra Lowes reminded the

board that a Special Events committee meeting will be held Sept. 17 at 8 a.m. to review Fall Fest details, including the location of emergency medical services during the festival weekend.

Local Law 3 – Water Regulations was mentioned and a motion to schedule a public hearing for Oct. 15 was made and passed.

Local Law 4 – Best Value Standard in Purchasing Contracts was also mentioned and a motion to schedule a public hearing for Oct. 15 was made and passed.

New BusinessMayor Coolidge discussed the possibility of a recreational trail in the Village and Town of Ellicottville.

Ellicottville Town Board

Member Ken Hinman has formed a committee of local leaders who have been working on the construction of a recreational trail in the Ellicottville and Great Valley areas. A recreational trail would benefi t our resort community residents and our welcome tourists, who are looking for an intermediate sports outlet for jogging, biking, rollerblading, snowshoeing and other four-season activities along a safe, traffi c-free trail. No route has been determined to date.

A motion to designate the town as the lead agency, specifi cally to facilitate grant writing, was requested and was passed without question.

Correspondence and minutes from last month’s meeting were read and accepted, and the Treasurer’s Report and Audit of Claims was given before adjourning the meeting. The next meeting of the Ellicottville Village Board will be Oct. 15, 2012, at 6 p.m.

Friday evening, Sept. 14 and doesn’t end until late Sunday afternoon.

The car show runs from 11 a.m.–5 p.m. on Sept. 16,

with judging and awards for each class. Visitors won’t want to miss Terry Buchwald, Elvis impersonator, who will be performing his much-acclaimed “Tribute to the King” show at the Gazebo on Sunday afternoon.

If the Classic Car Show isn’t enough for all you motor heads, then a visit to the Little Valley Speedway is a must! Saturday evening the Iskenderian (ISKY) Racing Cams will present the season-ending championship race for the Bicknell Racing Products (BRP) CanAm Series. The speedway has a covered grandstand with stadium seats and boasts some of the best food in racing. There is free camping with hookups on the grounds. Early arrivals are permitted. The excitement begins on Saturday when the gates open at 3 p.m. for a 6:30 p.m. start.

The Little Valley Speedway is located on the Cattaraugus County Fairgrounds on Rt. 353 in Little Valley. That’s just eight miles due west on Rt. 242 from Ellicottville. Adult admission is $15, with those under 12 admitted free. Pit passes are $25. Rain date is Sunday, Sept. 16. For more information go to www.ISKYCams.com.

Art lovers won’t want to miss the 2012 Cattaraugus County

Art Council (CCAC) Small Works Member Art Show featuring the work of 31 local artists who are also members of the CCAC. No work is larger than 11 inches by 14 inches. As the saying goes, “good things come in small packages,” and the artistic impact of these special pieces far exceed their size.

The art show begins with an opening reception from 6–8p.m. on Friday, Sept. 14 at The Center Gallery and is open and free to the public. No reservations required. Awards will be presented at 7 p.m., with hot hors d’oeuvres and happy hour refreshments throughout the evening. The Center Gallery is located in the College Center, 2nd Floor, on Jamestown Community College’s Cattaraugus County Campus at 260 N. Union St., Olean. You can call (716) 372-7455 or go to [email protected] for more information.

Every September local kids and visitors of all ages eagerly anticipate the opening of Pumpkinville, which signals the beginning of our beautiful fall season out here in ski country. Pumpkinville is arguably THE premier pumpkin-picking patch this side of the Pacifi c. In

addition to all things pumpkin, Pumpkinville offers hayrides, pony rides, a six-acre corn maze, the Cow Train, the Corn Cannon, Goat Mountain, and Storyland. Visitors can also take a helicopter ride on weekends in October.

A new attraction to Pumpkinville this year is the Hen House Five Review, which the playful Pumpkinville pundits describe as a “friendly fl ock of animatronic chickens” that will “entertain you with their singing and even tell some jokes.” The corn maze and hayrides have been upgraded this year and a kettle corn operation has been added to the fun.

Pumpkinville is located at 4844 Sugartown Rd. in Great Valley, and will be open to the public from Sept. 15–Oct. 31 from 9 a.m.–7 p.m. every day. Admission is free with minimal fees for some of the special attractions.

So there you have it – a whole summer of fun rolled into one fabulous weekend. We hope you won’t be a stranger and wait around for the next big event to visit. There is something for everyone all year round … and it’s always beautiful.

Cattaraugus County Arts Council small works member show opening reception is 6-8p.m. Friday, Sept. 14 at The Center Gallery in Olean.

To all our guests at the Argentine Event on Sat. Sept. 8 and those who donated to the Food Bank but were unable to attend. The response was wonderful and we are able to send them a total of $1700.00 from what, we hope, will become an annual event.

We would like to tell you about the Argentine wines we featured. The white wine is Catena Padrillos Torrontes which is $10.99, and the red wine is Tintonegro Malbec which sells for $9.99. Our guests seemed to really appreciate both of these wines and they are available at the store.

E-Ville Spirits will be celebrating our 9th anniversary in December and we want to thank you for your support. It has been a wonderful experience for all of us at the store: Shannon, Judith, Bob, Jamie, and Mary Lou. We look forward to many more years of serving you at E-Ville Spirits and Wines.

by Eva PotterEllicottville may soon

become the county’s central location for tourism information with proposed construction of a new visitor center.

On Sept. 5, 2012, Brian McFadden, executive director of the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce, presented a proposed plan to the Cattaraugus County Development and Agriculture Committee to remodel the current Kwik Fill gas station and Red Apple convenience store located on the corner of Mill Street and Route 219 into a visitor center for the purpose of promoting county tourism.

The gas station and store are scheduled to move to a new location across the street sometime in November.

McFadden said the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce board of directors took the lead for this project and the Ellicottville, Olean and Salamanca chambers have been involved. He clarifi ed that the Village and Town of Ellicottville have not been involved in the project.

“With tourism a $186 million dollar industry employing 14 percent of the county population, we need to do a better job of growing the industry throughout the county,” said McFadden.

Jayne Fenton, executive director of the Salamanca Chamber of Commerce, who was present at the committee meeting, said, “The Salamanca

Kwik Fill Proposed Site of Ellicottville Visitor Center

Chamber is endorsing this effort as something good for Salamanca and the entire region.”

The proposed visitor center, which would be geographically located in the center of the county, has an annual average of 6,500 cars passing the site daily. The Route 219 travel corridor is the gateway to a 10.5 million population base to the north.

“It is important to understand that this is proposed to be a county visitor center promoting all areas of Cattaraugus County. The benefi ts would be to showcase all the exciting tourism attractions in the area to visitors who would probably not know they existed. Currently, the county does not have such a facility,” said McFadden.

James Boser, vice chair of the Development and Agriculture Committee, countered that there is a visitor center located at the Allegany Rest Area on I-86,

but it is only able to capture westbound traffi c.

Fenton said, “Ellicottville attracts many visitors annually. With the travel center, they will be able to easily access information on other visitor attractions outside of Ellicottville, helping to increase visitor traffi c to these areas as well. Everyone benefi ts.”

The plan is for a regional board of directors with representatives from all over the county will create policies for operation of the center. Fenton said she is looking forward to Salamanca being represented on a board that would run the travel center.

Boser attended last week’s committee meeting and clarifi ed that the County Economic, Development and Tourism Department has not been involved in the planning process to date. He said he has no idea if the department has funding

by Eva PotterThe arts inspire, give joy,

raise consciousness, honor history and culture, and elevate the ordinary, yet the Southern Tier is anything but ordinary – and the Cattaraugus County Arts Council (CCAC) is hoping you think so, too.

For the last 14 years, CCAC has been able to support regional artists and offer quality arts programming through paid memberships.

Anne Conroy-Baiter, executive director of CCAC, said, “To CCAC, each

Become a Friend of the Arts with a CCAC Membership

membership we receive is like a demonstration of faith that the arts council is doing what’s important, what’s needed to support the arts, and what’s crucial to increase quality of life in our region. We value each and every membership, and are honored that people trust us to carry on our work.”

This year, CCAC is offering a free limited edition, gift print matted to 8 inches by 10 inches, ready for framing by watercolor artist S ean Huntington (www.seanstrees.com) with your $30 new membership, renewal,

or sponsorship, along with a chance to win an original pottery piece by Peter Goergen and two Southern Tier Symphony season tickets.

Local artist Barb Fox feels the arts council does an excellent job in “connecting the dots,” supporting artists and providing cultural activities.

She said, “As an artist, the arts council has been invaluable in providing opportunities for me to show my work, meet patrons and other artists, and improve my professional development.

areas that the district may target for improvements, including the parts of the building dating back to 1962, as well as some concerns in the elementary wing that opened in 1988. The board of education will join participants on the walk-through on Thursday, Sept. 13 at 7 p.m. A short, public board meeting will follow.

Elementary Principal Connie Poulin and Middle/High School Principal Bob Miller addressed the new state Annual Professional Performance Review (APPR) of teachers, as well as student testing requirements the state has imposed upon schools. Poulin and Miller reported on some of the things they are doing to meet these expectations.

As part of the process, Ward said Poulin and Miller are “having valuable and good conversations with teachers. All of the programs have to go through pre-testing between

Cont. from Section A Front Page

now and the early part of October, so they can establish baselines in all these subjects.”

Current ECS district enrollment stands at about 615 students, according to Ward.

He said, “Interestingly enough, in 2008-2009, our enrollment was about 612. So, we really, in the last fi ve years, have not lost or gained. We’re hanging in there, which is good probably because we were on a free-fall for about 10 years – almost everybody in the area was.”

Reductions in enrollment fi gures the last 10 years were infl uenced by regional economic conditions and affordability of housing within the district. Even so, Ward said parents “do like to send their children here, so we’re happy about that.”

On Sept. 20, the Drive4UR School event will be held during the district’s open house. The elementary open house is 6:30-7:30 p.m. and

the middle/high school open house is 7:30-8:30 p.m.

The Drive4UR School event is sponsored by Emerling Ford as a fundraiser for the ECS Sports Booster Club. For every no-obligation test drive, Ford will donate $20 to the school. The club’s goal is to raise the maximum amount of $6,000. Ed McClure, a master certifi ed sales representative at Emerling Ford, will be there to answer any questions regarding Ford vehicles. The Sports Booster Club encourages the public to come out and help them raise money for school sports programs.

The ECS Sports Boosters are also sponsoring a cookout during the open house evening starting at 5 p.m., featuring hot dogs, hamburgers, salad, chips and a drink for $3.

The next board meeting will take place Sept. 27 at 7:30 p.m. in the high school library.

available for such a project.“Right now it’s just a proposed

idea. We don’t know where it’s going to go,” said Boser. “As far as our committee goes, we haven’t made any decision yet and whether we can support it. Financially it’s a tough thing to do right now due to the 2 percent property tax cap. I’m not sure where we could come up with funding for it.”

According to Boser, McFadden indicated at the meeting that the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce could fi nancially handle the remodeling of the gas station/convenience store property, but that he is seeking operating support.

“(The Ellicottville Chamber) said it’s going to take about $90,000 a year to operate that center. (The chamber) wants to

Ellicottville Visitor CenterCont. from Section B Front Page

have a couple people on staff. They’d be open quite a few hours. With restrooms to take care of, they’d have to have a custodian. It is quite a bit of money,” said Boser. Other reports indicated it would cost closer to $130,000 annually to run the center.

McFadden’s presentation included the idea of various tourism businesses buying “spots” in the building to help support the operating cost of the center. He also presented an artist’s rendering of the proposed building’s exterior.

“It’s a very good location due to the fact that the traffi c is quite high on Route 219,” said Boser. “Tourism is a big industry in Cattaraugus County. It has grown over the years and employs a lot of people.”

Meme Krahe Yanetsko,

CEO of the Greater Olean Area Chamber of Commerce, could not attend the Sept. 5 meeting, but sent a letter of support to Development and Agriculture Committee member James Snyder stating, “The proposed site in Ellicottville is an excellent location for such a center, in terms of visibility, the ability to leverage the signifi cant Ellicottville tourism traffi c already coming to this area for the benefi t of regional tourism, and continuing to develop our hospitality infrastructure. GOACC looks forward to dedicated space in this center to showcase and promote our area attractions and tourism assets.”

Asked when he hoped the center would be completed, McFadden said, “Ideally, we would like to see it open by the fi rst of the year.”

By Liz BaresMy garden looks worn

out, the last tomatoes still proudly hanging onto the sagging vines. The zucchini plant is slowly producing one fruit at a time. The cornstalks are dry; the pumpkins are orange and ready to be harvested. It was a tough summer for gardens, little to no water for days, sometimes weeks, and seemingly endless heat. Somehow, my garden produced a bounty enough for my small family of four and our two piglets.

September fi lls my counters with produce, so much that I cannot fi nd enough ways to prepare it before it becomes overripe and the piglets are given a nice juicy treat. Most of the foods I prepare are kid friendly/approved.

I made zucchini “fries” the other night and with some ketchup, the kids gobbled them up. The “fries” are baked and use panko breadcrumbs, which are a Japanese-style breadcrumb used for deep fat frying. Panko breadcrumbs are made from bread without crusts. They are coarsely ground and larger than a traditional breadcrumb. I like using them because they give you a satisfying crunch when you bite into them and they do not absorb as much grease.

Here’s a rough recipe. You can add seasonings, cook them longer … whatever you prefer. For example, my family loves garlic, so I added more garlic powder than what I have written down. If you don’t like ketchup, like me, a ranch or blue cheese dippin’ sauce would taste delightful. Enjoy!

Simply Food

Zucchini “Fries”¼ cup whole wheat fl our2 eggs2 cups Panko breadcrumbssalt pepper½ teaspoon garlic powder¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper1 lb. zucchini, cut into fairly

thick sticks (they do not have to be perfect or even)

Preheat your oven to 450 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or tin foil.

Place fl our in a large zip-lock bag.

Whisk eggs with 2 tablespoons of water and place in bowl or deep plate

Place panko, salt, pepper, garlic powder and cayenne in a shallow dish and combine.

Put zucchini in the bag and toss them around to get them coated with fl our.

Next, take a few “fries” and place them in the egg and water mixture. Coat them as well as you can.

Then roll them around in the panko mixture and place on the pan.

Bake about 20 minutes, until the breadcrumbs become golden brown.

Let them cool and enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce.

About the columnist:Hello, I’m Liz Bares and I live in Ellicottville with my two kids and my husband, Charlie.

I graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in 1997 with grand plans of being the next Julia Child. However, the restaurant business is pretty intense. Those “best

chef” reality shows, I can’t watch them. They remind me too much of my time cooking in big city restaurants. Anyone who can carve out a decent living as a chef in a high volume restaurant is my hero.

After a stint as a personal chef, I worked at my mother’s restaurant in Allegany, the New Moon Cafe. In 2010, my good friends Garrett and Megan Taylor helped me produce the Corn Moon Dinner at Sojourner Farms.

I’m a bit of a food snob but that’s ok – looking for delicious food is a challenge that I like. I feel it’s important to utilize local foods whenever you can. The food is always good. When picked at its peak, the food is bursting with nutrients and fl avor.

Currently I just make sure my kids and husband eat well. I fi nd it especially important my kids TRY a new dish or food item. Sometimes it doesn’t go so well, sometimes it does.

My rule of thumb is: “If an item has a long shelf life, it will shorten your life.” Simple. Fresh ingredients prepared simply will net rave reviews, almost making you feel guilty about how easy the dish was to prepare – almost.

The Lady Eagles went undefeated for the day at the Falconer SPIKEFEST tournament. Courtney Scanlan was named the tournament MVP as well as 72 kills and 22 blocks for the day, whileJanae Hamilton had 58 kills and 32 blocks, Maddie Szpaicher had 63 digs, 23 kills, Marissa Hamilton with 113 assists, 12 kills & 8 blocks, Kayla Dunkleman 13 digs , 8 kills and 6 aces while Grace Hall fi nished the championship game with a huge block to fi nish Portville off at 25-12 & 25-19.

As a member of the community, I appreciate the classes, performances, exhibitions and other cultural activities available to me locally.”

receive the bimonthly newsletter full of arts programming, artist bios, class offerings and fun events, as well as the biweekly e-mail newsletter containing the most up-to-date information of the regional arts scene.

There are many, individual reason the arts inspire and fulfi ll and they’re different for each person. Ellicottville resident Jane Eshbaugh she and her husband joined CCAC to take pottery classes but then realized that her membership means more than that.

“I feel that I’m supporting the arts in Cattaraugus County in a very small way,” said Eshbaugh. “The greatest benefi t is that when we’re deep into a pottery session, we don’t think about anything else. You can get lost in art and get a welcome break

from just about anything else,” she said. “I’m not sure the rest of my family benefi ts – they have to pretend they appreciate our gifts of amateur pottery!”

The Lady Eagles soccer team played hard against the North Tonawanda Class A school on Monday night, but he varsity Lady Eagles soccer team lost to the Lumberjacks 1-0 and the junior varsity lost 2-0.

“Mind over matter is the key in the hard-fought games,” said Varsity Coach Mary Neilon. “If mistakes are made, we need to pick up our heads and keep on going.”

Although the opposing team scored, ECS tried their best to keep on going to get it back. They didn’t, but they worked hard. The varsity team always starts off with their team cheer, “United!” And that’s how they played – as one unit working

ECS Lady Eagles Lose to the Lumberjacks

together against this tough team.

The varsity team had prevented the Lumberjacks from scoring the whole fi rst half and some of the second with the help of their goalkeeper Liz Wendel.

“All that matters is that we try our best and give it all we got,” said the much-appreciated goalkeeper.

Ellicottville is rated a Class D school, which means they have a lower number of kids in the school. North Tonawanda is rated a Class A school, which means they are a bigger school with more students. Generally, larger schools are tougher to beat. They both had the honor of playing each other and

maybe even realized that they each had misconceived notions about the other.

“We played tough against a bigger school,” said Junior Varsity Coach Katie Taylor. “We just need to score our fi rst goal.”

The Lumberjacks scored early in the fi rst half and again later on in the game, but the Lady Eagles did not lose hope. The team thanked the chatty JV goalkeeper, Becca Hagon, for never giving up and keeping her head held high.

First Annual ‘Pain in the Alleganies’ Half Iron To Be Held at Allegany State Park

The entire race takes place within Allegany State Park, which will be sure to offer both spectacular views and challenging climbs.

“You couldn’t ask for a better way to end your race season,” stated Rich Clark, vice president of Score This!!!, Inc. “This race venue is one of the best around. It has amazing views, especially considering the time of year. But, both the bike and the run course have their share of hills. It’s not called PAIN in the Alleganies because it’s going to be easy.”

Ridecarbon.com, based out of

Bradford, Pa., is the presenting sponsor for the race and will be providing awards for the half iron distance triathlon. Prizes for that race go fi ve deep for both female and male athletes and include Gray disc wheels, Synergy Sport wetsuits, aero helmets, Zoot Ultra TT 5.0 shoes and Fuelbelts.

The schedule of the race is as follows:

8:00 a.m. (sun up): Sprint and Duathlon

8:30 a.m.: Triathlon and Aquabike Half Distance
