p.m. The speedway is set to host five races this year as well as present the Annual Freedom Daze Festival.

The races start at 7 p.m. and will be followed by fireworks. That Sunday, July 3, the annual
Freedom Daze large and small car Demolition Derby will rev the crowd up starting at 7:30 p.m. and end with another firework spectacular that should wow the crowd and get everyone in the spirit. Kids 8 and under can enjoy this event for free when accompanied by an adult. Leaving no one hungry, at every race and event, you and your family can enjoy the raceway to its fullest by
eating at its convenient food stands. Offering many different fair-type foods, everyone will leave not only satisfied by the races but by the food as well.

It’s no secret that Western New Yorker’s are passionate about their hockey. Many who live here started on skates and learned how to handle a puck as far back as they can remember. Nearby Buffalo has been considered one of the best hockey cities in America with a fan base that follows the team religiously. This is the interest and loyalty that some people in Jamestown hope to replicate with the introduction of its new NAHL team The Jamestown Ironmen. The team once known as the Detroit
Metal Jackets will now be setting up camp in Jamestown and calling Jamestown Savings Bank Ice Arena home. One of the major factors in deciding where the team would end up was the amount of recognition and publicity the organization would receive in its new home. Jamestown was ultimately picked because there was an absence of a semi pro hockey league as well as the accommodation and size of the ice arena. These benefits were demonstrated during the World Juniors the previous winter. “We used the World Juniors as a showcase to demonstrate to the Ironmen organization that we could handle hockey on a large scale” said Suzanne Olson, Marketing Director.
Although management will remain the same, the team will begin hosting tryout camps on May 27-29 as well as June 17-19. Players from all over the country, some as far away as California, will be coming in to show their skills in hopes of acquiring a spot on the roster. This is a big step for some of these players; it will be the first time some of these young men will travel away from their home and families. In order to help fans learn a bit about these newcomers, the organization plans to release player cards, each giving stats as well as a little personal information about the team member. “This will help people
continuously complete laps around the track in addition to partaking in other various fun fundraising activities. A cancer diagnosis marks survivorship, according to the Relay for Life website (www.relayforlife.org). A survivor could be cancer-free for years, just diagnosed or currently battling cancer. Registration for this year’s event begins at 10 a.m. and the opening ceremony will commence at 12 p.m., said Mike Porpiglia, community

Publisher’s WordSharing a Tuscan Journey
The seasonal changes we experience here in Western New York remind me of my Italian heritage and my love for everything Italy. The growing season, fresh everything, lazy summer days that turn into cool, refreshing evenings. Italians love to spend time with friends and family and eat outdoors
whenever they can. I am no different. My Italian mother and grandmother instilled in me a love for an uncomplicated, flavorful life that always includes a little wine. Why not! They have shared with me the best time to pick dandelions for cooking and other memorable stories that I continue to cherish. I have traveled to Italy in the past and now have the opportunity to share a journey with you, my readers. The first of such trips I will be hosting is to Tuscany. In partnership with Horizon Club Tours, a division of AAA, we’ll stay at Villa Poggiarello, an 18th century villa that has been carefully restored to its original beauty. The villa is in the beautiful countryside of southern Tuscany near Roccostrada, 90 km. south of Florence. I hope you can join me on this exclusive journey Sept. 9-16, 2011. We’ll arrive in Rome Saturday morning Sept. 10 and return Friday, Sept. 16. The cost is $2999.00 per person, double occupancy. Airfare is not included but Horizon Club Tours will assist in making those arrangements for my group. I can only take a total of 15
people, so don’t miss out. I have invited our host and guide in Italy, chef and expert wine sommelier, Romeo Innocenti, to visit Ellicottville on Monday, July 18. Romeo will join me at The Silver Fox restaurant at 6:30 p.m. that evening to present a Tuscany themed (tapas-style) food and Italian wine tasting for everyone interested in my September tour. He will share his family history and experiences of living in one of the most beautiful regions on earth. If you have ever wanted to travel to Tuscany, don’t miss this event! See the display ad in this issue for more details about Romeo’s visit. In next week’s issue, you’ll read an article about the southern Tuscany region we will be exploring with Romeo. I know you’ll be struck by the beauty of the Tuscany landscape in the wonderful photographs included. I invite you to join me on a vacation like no other where we’ll have a fantastic time touring, wine tasting, cooking and eating—and eating and wine tasting some more!Ciao. Jeanine

ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y., May 23, 2011 — SBU-TV Sports is a finalist for a 2011 College Sports Media Award for its coverage of St. Bonaventure’s heart-stopping win over Duquesne Feb. 5 at the Reilly Center. The Bonnies defeated the Dukes, then 8-0 in conference play, when Michael Davenport hit a three-pointer with 1.6 seconds to play. SBU-TV is one of five finalists in the Live Game and Event Category in the College Athletics Division. The students are up against game productions from Purdue (men’s basketball), New Mexico State (softball), Mississippi (baseball) and Rochester Institute of Technology (men’s hockey). The winners will be announced June 7 at the College Sports Video Summit in Atlanta. Paul Wieland, instructor in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication, teaches a credit-bearing production class out of the remote broadcast facility, located outside the Reilly Center. Live broadcasts of men’s and women’s basketball home games are part of the curriculum. The games are streamed live over the Web via the university’s CBS All-Access package. “This recognition is really a reward for all the hard work these kids have put in since the production trailer was hooked up two years ago,” Wieland said. “I’ve said it before, but I’ll put the quality of these broadcasts right up there with a lot of what is produced professionally.” The dramatic end to the Bonnies’ win over Duquesne thrust sideline reporter Shannon Shepherd into the
spotlight. “Usually, you have to wait until the coach is done with his radio show, and the arena is empty by then,” Wieland said. “But Shannon grabbed coach (Mark Schmidt) in the middle of the chaos just after the buzzer and got a great interview.” The crew for the production was Christy Andrzejewski (producer); Paul Wieland (director); Mike Colaianni, Mike Vitron, Rick Foit, Matt Lee, Christian Seabaugh, Kelley Burke, and Leah Murphy (cameras); Dave Kolkowski, Conor Mooney, Johnny Heard and Fred Alvarez (replays); Scott Shelters and Terry Lepetich (audio); Joe Paciorkowski (video); Kevin Clark (technical director); Jake Sonner and Tony Jones (Chyron graphics); Jocelyn Williams (stage manager); Sarah Marciniak (timeout coordinator); Jeremy Noeson (play-by-play); John Watson Jr. (color); and Shannon Shepherd (sideline reporter). The total number of submissions nearly doubled
from the inaugural awards in 2009. The quantity and quality of the entries called for an additional level of distinction. “We had a record number of entries this year and we saw the quality of production rise to a very high level, creating a fierce competition,” said Tom Buffolano, conference chair of the College Sports Video Summit. “After tabulating the voting done by our expert panel of judges, we found that there were many worthy entries that, although not nominated, still deserved to be recognized for outstanding achievement. They are receiving an honorable mention. We felt that it was important to recognize the high quality of production outside of the short list of nominees.” The submissions and nominees are split across three divisions: College Athletic, College Academic, and Professional. Each division has three categories: Live Game and Event, Outstanding Promotional Video or Campaign, and Special Feature.

SBU Member Inducted Br. David Haack Honored by Art Students League of New York
SBU faculty member Br. David Haack inducted into the Art Students League of New York ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y. — Br. David J. Haack, O.F.M., associate professor of art history and studio art in the Department of Visual and Performing Arts at St. Bonaventure University, was inducted into the Art Students League of New York on May 2 in New York City. During his sabbatical this year, Br. David submitted a portfolio of recent paintings and was accepted at the Art Students League, America’s premier Atelier school in the French academic tradition, to study portraiture and figure studies in the medium of traditional oil paint. He studied with master
painters Joseph Peller (figure studies) and Tom Torak (portrait studies) at the league from September 2010 through April. Both master painters nominated him to become a member of the league after a review of his work produced at the league. Three practicing members of the league acted as recommenders and his nomination was voted in by the full membership of the league on April 14. On May 2, Br. David signed the league’s Constitution, written in 1875, and held a concours exhibition of his works at the league’s gallery (the Phyllis Harriman Mason Gallery on West 57th Street), capped by the league’s traditional ceremony for new members. The Art Students League was
founded in 1875 by a group of artists, including many women, who were students at the National Academy of Design. The league’s early instructors included William Merritt Chase, Kenyon Cox, Augustus Saint-Gaudens, Daniel Chester French, Thomas Eakins and Childe Hassam. Many artists who shaped the vocabulary of art worldwide have trained or taught at the league. They include Georgia O’Keeffe, John Sloan, Reginald Marsh, Thomas Hart Benton, Alexander Calder, Hans Hofmann, Paul Manship, Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, Barnett Newman, Yasuo Kuniyoshi, Louise Nevelson, Romare Bearden and Roy Lichtenstein.

You may have seen news articles in the past year reporting that deer ticks collected in numerous western New York counties are now testing positive for the bacterium that causes Lyme Disease, at an increasing rate. This is concerning to doctors and the public health community because WNY residents can now acquire Lyme Disease locally, not just by traveling to certain New England states or eastern NYS. We launched a public educational campaign last year to begin warning Southern Tier residents about this emerging health risk and how to protect themselves. We want western
Health Department NoticeCattaraugus County Health Dept. Raising Deer Tick Awareness
New Yorkers to understand: 1) what the disease is and how it is transmitted, 2) the importance of routinely checking for ticks on oneself and pets after being outdoors, and 3) how to remove an attached tick and what to do after one is identified. We want to get factual information into more households in the region, thereby preventing many new human cases of Lyme disease in the coming years. To facilitate this we have arranged for Dr. Wayne Gall, Regional Entomologist with the NYSDOH, to deliver his updated presentation on the status of Lyme disease in WNY, the life cycle of
the deer tick, symptoms and difficulties in diagnosis, and current recommendations on repellents and other precautions for avoiding contracting the disease. We ask that persons planning to attend register no later that Thursday, June 9 to CLPeters@cattco.org. The seminar is “Update on Deer Tick Surveillance and Lyme Disease in Western New York” and “Medical Entomology in Service to the Public.” It will be held on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. (lunch provided) at the R.H. Livingston Community Center on 188 West Main St., Allegany, N.Y.

Have a big occasion to go to? Just want to try something new for summer? Look no further than your own town. Reflections Hair Design of Ellicottville has just what you need! Wanting to own her own business, Monica Harrington left a previous hair salon in town to open her own and thus Reflections Hair Design was born. Open since 2002, Reflections Hair Design has not only grown size wise but in service as well. Reflections has always been located at 39 Mill St., but five years ago the salon took over the space occupied by Bruce Candles when they moved downtown, expanding Reflections and the services it provides. With two hair salonists on staff, Reflections is a full service Paul Mitchell Signature Salon and offers you many of the in-demand hair and body care services for women (and men, too), including the new line Awaphul by Paul Mitchell. Awaphul is a hair conditioning product composed of Keratriplex to specially rebuild and soften your hair. “Over the years our retail has change, our product sales have increased,” Harrington said. “Paul Mitchell makes it very easy for us to carry them because they have such affordable prices.” The salon offers hair cuts and colors to all ages and sexes,
and does special occasion hair styling for proms and weddings. However, since the building expansion, Harrington has also expanded the services the salon has. Their different nail options has become a staple for the beauty parlor, especially with the hiring of a full-time manicurist and the inclusion of Shellac, a 14-day no-chip nail polish. “Business has practically doubled since we got Shellac,” said Tracy Keyes, a manicurist. Reflections started carrying Shellac last May. Reflections offers manicures, mini manicures, pedicures, acrylic nails, gel or silk wraps and shellac. Harrington’s salon also gives both eyebrow and lip waxings. And with the sunshine hiding from sight, Reflections offers the perfect way for you to get that pretty sun-kissed glow
you’ve been yearning for during these cold ski months. Reflections is the only place in Ellicottville that offers tanning – year round, too. With many different tanning bed options, Reflections can accommodate all of your tanning needs. “Usually most people come during spring break, March time, and then it’ll die out,” Harrington said. “But with the weather we’ve had, more people have been coming in.” With an affordable price range and many different services, a visit to Reflections Hair Design is just what you need to complete your summer look. “We have more services for people – we’re just one stop convenience,” Harrington continued. Reflections is just a phone call away, so make your appointment today by calling 716-699-8757.

On Thursday May 19th, Kelly Friel and Heather Snyder of the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce took the afternoon off to partake in an Ariel Adventure like no other. Holiday Valley’s newest edition to the resort named the Sky High Adventure Park consists of a series of platforms suspended anywhere from 15 to 50 feet in the air, with obstacles and zip lines that must be completed to maneuver from platform to platform to complete a course. There are eight courses in total ranging in difficulty from yellow (the easiest) to double black diamond. Kelly and I, both terrified of heights gathered up our courage, donned our comfy work out clothes and sneakers and headed to the Tannenbaum Lodge for our big adventure. We were extremely nervous, to say the least. Upon our arrival the attendants got us all geared up with very snug fitting harnesses that had what seemed to be an ungodly amount of clips and contraptions attached to it. Since I am pretty sure that I am spatially impaired and barely know my right from my left, I couldn’t even begin to imagine how on earth I was going to figure out what went where while navigating any kind of course, let alone one way up in the air! Bonnie and Sam who got us strapped in assured us that we would be fine and that the safety guide would make sure that we knew what we were to do with all of our parts. That being said, they told us to follow the path to the edge of the woods where a guide would meet us
for our technique and safety walk through. The guide was extremely thorough and patient and made Kelly and I (the nervous nellies) feel like we were ready to conquer any obstacle they could through at us, that was of course until we reached the first task at hand…getting onto the starting platform! With some very genuine and gentle coaching from the starting attendants we got ourselves clipped in and climbed on up to, you guessed it, a nice easy yellow course. Well easy it wasn’t, but after completing about three obstacles consisting of netting, logs and ropes that formed shaky bridges from one platform to another, Kelly and I really started to get the hang of it and after our first zip line experience I was pretty sure that we had reached rock star status! Apparently no one was
quite as impressed as we were. Kelly retired after completing the first course without not so much as a stumble and I pushed myself onto the next level where the obstacles were considerably more difficult and higher in the air. After two and a half hours of “Sky Highing” Kelly and I were in need of some serious rehydration where we could sit and relax and relive our experience. We both agreed that tackling our fear of heights, trusting each others coaching, the safety of equipment and embracing our physical strength and problem solving skills felt really good. I must say I have not had such an empowering experience in a very long time. Sky High is great way to spend an afternoon enjoying a new experience that really leaves you feeling like you are on top of the world…literally.

The flames leaped high into the air. Distraught townspeople and whatever volunteer firefighters were available could only stand by and watch as almost the entire block became engulfed in the fire. Possibly a bucket brigade formed to slosh water out of nearby Great Valley Creek, but what little water might have reached the fire would have been useless against the flames. In a matter of hours, most of the north side of Washington street between Jefferson and Monroe was left a blackened, smoking ruin. The year was 1890 and the hotel that had stood on the west end of the block since 1822 was gone. Sensibly enough, the hotel owner decided to replace the burned out wood structure with a brick building. When completed the owner boasted “This is the finest hotel in western New York, with electric lights and steam
heat!” For another hundred years or so the Ellicottville Inn would be host to visitors from New York City, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Canada; in town for the skiing and golf, or just to get away. Over time families began to go more for the condo option for vacations, and business at the hotel declined. The last hotel guests departed sometime in 2008. But now a new era has begun for the grand dame of the village historic district. The exterior brick facade remains unchanged, but what has happened inside is yet another rebirth. Thanks to some developers the Inn has been transformed on the inside to luxury condos. On the ground floor the front lobby is largely unchanged; it will remain a common area for owners and their families. It’s on the second and third floors where you can really see the transformation. There is a fresh paint newness throughout the units and down the hallways. Several of them
are fully furnished to serve as models, more are in various stages of completion as they are sold and customized to the owners desires. All of the units have their own electric and water meters. Steam heat still run throughout the building, and many of the radiators have been upgraded to modern units. In the basement owners have large storage units, and the original elevator still conveys guests between floors. The first unit I visit is number 202; a one bedroom one bath unit that would make a great bachelor pad or a get away spot for a couple. Its most striking feature is the bay window that looks out over Washington Street. A bench in the widow seems to be the perfect place to curl up with a book. In the next room the antique fireplace has been preserved as a focal point. The kitchen is thoroughly modern with Corian counter tops, beautiful pine cabinets and stainless steel appliances. The
largest unit on the second floor is an expansive two bedroom two bath unit. At the far end is a large kitchen/family room that has a beautiful set of windows that take in the view of Washington Street. It’s in the process of being customized to the owners specifications because, alas it’s sold. Another of the finished units is on the third floor. In the kitchen the walnut cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and tile floor give a sophisticated urban look. The bedroom has been tastefully decorated with a slight Oriental touch. The other bedroom has been arraigned as a sitting or TV room, with framed art and cozy sofa. Back down on the ground floor I have a chance to explore the old Fosters restaurant; once the gathering place for travelers and locals alike. The remains of the beautiful cherry bar speak to a gentler more refined era. It’s one of the four commercial areas available for lease; the kitchen and dining room are another. Two of those are being leased to Coolings and Alexandra’s. Out back is a marvelous brick patio that could be outside seating for the restaurant or a common space for barbeques and alfresco dining for the owners.
The exterior brick facade remains unchanged, but what has happened inside is yet another rebirth. Thanks to some developers the Inn has been transformed on the inside to luxury condos. On the ground floor the front lobby is largely unchanged from its hotel days; it will remain a common area for owners and their families. It’s on the second and third floors where you can really see the transformation.
In the kitchen the walnut cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and tile floor give it a sophisticated urban look. The original 24 rooms on the second and third floors were converted to 11 residential condos; four of which are sold. All models have been skillfully decorated to give them a modern cultivated look; they would be at home in any Manhattan co-op. Yet, here they are in downtown Ellicottville, a short walk to any of our fine establishments, unique stores, and a short drive to either HoliMont or Holiday Valley. It’s an opportunity not only to have a place in ski country that’s a cut above the average condo, and to own a piece of history. For information about any of the available units at the Ellicottville Inn contact Bill Soffel at 716-499-8974

Have you thought about living your life in the raw; living a real life? What is it that I mean by a raw, real life you may be asking? Well, I am suggesting that you live life without fear, without fear of being found out. You know that little voice in your head that sometimes screams out, “Imposter!” The little voice that suggests that you are not qualified for a new position, not deserving of success, or don’t really belong where you are. The little voice that whispers you would not be accepted if you were real. The little voice that reminds you that you have not lived up to the ideals you have created in our own mind.
I am suggesting we start to live a raw, real life. We can all then, take off the “mask” we have been wearing that disguises each of us. The mask that makes us feel safe and protected from others judgments, assumptions, criticism, and false perceptions. The “mask” that allows us to pretend we are something we are not because of fear of being found out. Here is what I think…so what! So what if we are not perfect in the eyes of others, so what if we have areas of weakness, so what if we have fear. So what! At least we are real and true to whom we really are. Why do we fear being raw and real about who we are? Why do we feel that people would be disappointed if they only knew? It is because we are quick to judge, make assumptions, and criticize. We like to build ourselves up by putting others down. So many people in the world spend too much time living their lives like characters in a play or a movie. Pretending, acting, painting a happy picture, or narrating an exciting story. A life story they believe others will find more interesting than
the real one. A life others will not judge or criticize. I believe the world is changing and we need to be more accepting. People should feel comfortable expressing their raw real self. I am fascinated by people’s interest in Reality TV. Reality TV is supposed to portray actual human life lived by real people, with raw issues. Opposed to fictional or fantasy characters living pretend lives. Reality TV lovers enjoy peering into the raw and real lives of others while pretending in their own. It’s as if it gives them something to compare their own life against. They watch real life unfold on TV and see the raw and real things that happen reassuring them in some way they are still ok. They are not as dysfunctional as the “other guy.” Let me reassure you if you allow yourself to remove the mask, you can still feel safe and will be protected. Those who judge you, make assumptions, criticize, or ponder up false perceptions are those who to are wearing a mask. Be confident in who you are and what you believe. Allow yourself to live raw and have a real life.

Are you ready for a good spring cleansing? Our bodies like the seasons have changes as well, and it is up to us to help with these changes in a healthy way. A parasite cleanse is a clever way to start. Many people assume parasitic infections in humans are only a problem in underdeveloped countries; however they also pose a serious problem in the United States. There are, in fact, many species of parasites that show no socioeconomic boundaries and can be found in all climates. In fact, researchers say today that Americans today are host to more than 130 different kinds of parasites ranging from microscopic organisms to tapeworm.
A parasite is an organism that lives off the host (the host being us). They live a parallel life inside our bodies. They feed off our energy, our own cells or the food we eat. They even feed off the supplements we take. A smart parasite lives without being detected. If it were detected it would be eradicated. They are intelligent in their ability to survive and reproduce. If you learn to read your body’s signals you will be able to recognize their presence. No organ is immune from their infestation. Chronic fatigue, immune dysfunction, diarrhea, gas and bloating, allergies and nervousness are some of signs of parasites in adults. Children more likely have worms if blisters appear on the lower lip (inside mouth), if they grind their teeth or are restless at night, or if they frequently wipe their nose or itch their rectum. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 90 percent of all parasitic infections in the U.S. are by single-celled protozoans. Parasites thrive in environments where yeast or fungus are present, acid levels are elevated, and many other toxins are prevalent. The best and safest way to eliminate parasites is to use natural herbal and homeopathic supplements. A parasite cleanse
should be done twice a year for relatively healthy individuals and four times a year for people with lowered immune system response. Also, individuals that have pets in the home should consider de-worming their pets and doing a parasite purge four to five times a year. It is important to detect, eliminate and repair. A parasite program should be for approximately six weeks, since the parasites go through an incubation period of between three and four weeks. My favorite is Para-cleanse Para-cleanse. Repeat the cleanse in another six weeks to ensure all parasites, especially those that may have avoided initial supplement exposure, are dealt with. Then be sure to rebuild and repair by balancing pH levels in the digestive tract by eating a lot of green vegetables, also you may supplement the friendly flora with a good probiotic like Probiotic 11. Support the digestive system with Food Enzymes and replenish fiber in the colon with Nature’s Three or Psyllium Hulls. It combines helpful herbal ingredients in a gentle effective blend that includes Black Walnut ATC Concentrate, Herbal Pumpkin, Cell Reg and Paw Paw. This program helps to cleanse and detoxify unwanted foreign invaders. It is conveniently packed in individual servings.

“Fab Five Freddie told me everybody’s high DJ’s spinnin are savin my mind...” - Rapture by Blondie Ah yes. The Rapture. The end times. People vanishing into thin air and being lifted up on a cloud made of angels breath. Good old John the revelator gets everybody all excited and then…poof! Nothing happens. Harold Camping, the California preacher man is 0 for 2 with his Rapture predictions and still good folks the world over keep falling for this nonsense. They sell everything they own expecting to be face to face with Jesus when in reality, after
another date passes, they are left with nothing but the clothes on their backs. How does this keep happening? How many times have we seen it before? Jim Jones. The castrated Heavens Gate loons lying dead in their compound with toll money in their pockets. The Left-Behind groupies. All waiting for a parable that has been reinterpreted so many times that it’s lost it’s true meaning, to come to pass. If it weren’t so sickening and depressing it would be funny. There’s been a movement lately in the US to outlaw Sharia Law. Sharia is the belief in the literal translation of the Koran. Good Christian legislatures in State Houses all over the country believe that Sharia is dangerous and must be banned. Ironically, these same men and women themselves believe in the literal interpretation of the New Testament, which, in the end, predicts the same fate as the Koran. Here’s the thing. If you want or need to believe in the literal translation of anything try to find the closest thing to the original translation of your particular book that you can and go from there. You might be surprised and, in the end,
you won’t end up penniless on a mountaintop somewhere waiting for some mystical magician to pull the ultimate rabbit out of his hat. I’m not sure which version of the New Testament Harold Camping was reading but the one that I’m familiar with says that no man will know the time of the Rapture. Camping, by the way, has since revised his figures and come up with October 21st as the true date. Strike three. Back to the end days. It always seems to be the end. Every time there’s an earthquake or a war or a tornado people start babbling about the apocalypse. Guess what? There has always been earthquakes wars and tornadoes and there always will be. Today, however, these things seem much more immediate. Forty years ago if 3000 people were killed in a quake in Indonesia we might not have even heard about it. Today we hear about it when it happens. People start Tweeting and blogging almost the very second the ground begins shaking. We hear about every single disaster as they happen and that makes it seem like there’s more going on now

executive of the American Cancer Society. This year two survivors, Ted LaCroix and Melissa Walker, will share their stories of survivorship at the ceremony. Porpiglia said the theme for this year’s event is Rock-n-Roll. Twenty-four teams have raised nearly $20,000 toward the event’s goal of $45,000. The fundraisers have taken place throughout the county leading up to this event. To continue working toward the fundraising goal, each team will hold a different fundraiser at their campsite on the day of the event, said Porpiglia. “There are different activities to check out and do throughout the day.” Porpiglia said that this year’s activities would include children’s games, a bounce house, basket raffles and a Chinese auction, horse and buggy rides, bake sales and food. The event will also be deejayed throughout the day. “The public is welcomed and encouraged to join us,” he said.
To stick with the theme of “Rock-n-Roll,” Porpiglia said there would be one or two bands that also play at the event. However, the bands and performance times are still in the confirmation process. The event will also include a chicken barbecue. Tickets will be pre-sold for the barbecue that should begin at 2 p.m. The quantities marked on the pre-sale tickets can be picked up at the start of the barbecue until 4 p.m., Porpiglia said. After 4 p.m. the chicken quantities from the pre-sale tickets will not be held and the barbecue will run until it is sold out. The traditional Luminaria Ceremony will begin as darkness falls at 9:30 p.m. A luminaria is a small votive candle placed into a small decorative bag and placed outdoors. The luminaries at this event will be decorated to honor the memory of someone who is battling, survived or passed away from cancer. “People may purchase the luminaria and decorate it in memory of someone,” said Porpiglia. “They could also give us the information and we could decorate it for them.
Then we will line the track and ceremoniously light the luminaries.” A luminaria can be purchased for $5. “Relay for Life is a community event and we are supporting those people right here in our community that are affected by cancer,” said Porpiglia. “We encourage everybody to come out and participate.” Call (716) 338-0333 for more information about Relay for Life of Cattaraugus County and the American Cancer Society.
Twenty-four teams have raised nearly $20,000 toward the event’s goal of $45,000. The fundraisers have taken place throughout the county leading up to this event.

then there used to be. There’s not. So stop writing checks to fanatics who think it’s their job to spread the word with your money. Camping, it turns out, is worth more than $104 million. As of 2009, 18.3 million of that money came from donations.
Think about that for a second. $18.3 million dollars. People quit their jobs, left their families and gave everything they had to this nut and nothing happened. Do they get their money back? I seriously doubt it. Many of them still remain faithful to Camping’s “church” even after he failed to predict the end of the world. Now here he is, waving his tattered bible in his feeble old hands while confidently stating that he was only off by a couple of months. There had
to have been some laws broken somewhere. Right? I’ve got an idea. On October 21st we should have a worldwide game of hide and seek. At the precise moment that Camping says the faithful will vanish, the rest of us should hide. It’ll be hilarious. They’ll think they were the ones left behind and the heathens were the ones called home! You know what? That’s not a bad idea. I should start a church or something. It turns out that’s where the real money is.

put a face to the name and will really create a connection between players and fans, we really want to make them feel at home” said Suzanne. The team will have 28 games at home during the upcoming season, each of which will have its own theme, with six to eight promotions within the theme. Each promotion will be linked with a sponsor that will be given an opportunity to attach their name to the promotion and gain exposure with the public. Olson described the deal as “a win-win for everyone”, while Jamestown residents get a hockey team to call their own, local businesses get recognition and exposure they might not otherwise get. The preparation for these home games, as well as for the team, has been planned for months in advance. All of the marketing has already been organized, while changes to the ice rink are still being made. The arena is currently undergoing changes to its lower levels. Re-designing offices to create more locker room space, while
renovating older locker rooms to create more space for the team are just some of the transformations underway. As for the next big event pertaining to the team, the arena will start selling season tickets to fans in order to generate buzz for the Ironmen. “We want the fans to be excited before the team even hits the ice” Olson said. Season tickets will sell for $250.00 for premium seating
and $189.00 for seats at the end of the ice. Individual game tickets will go for $10.00. While the season may begin in September, there will be plenty to look forward to this summer, with the introduction of the new team and updates on the team’s progress available weekly. Let’s hope for a long and successful relationship with the Ironmen, let Jamestown Hockey begin!
The team once known as the Detroit Metal Jackets will now be setting up camp in Jamestown and calling Jamestown Savings Bank Ice Arena home. One of the major factors in deciding where the team would end up was the amount of recognition and publicity the organization would receive in its new home.
My name is Denise Kropp. I am 40 years old.
To the world you may be just one person, but to one person, you just may be the world. Thank you from the Western New York Kidney Connection.
Hi! My name is Denise, I am 40 years old. Most of my family is in the area. I have 4 neph-ews and a neice here that I like to do things with. I have a dog, Cassie, who is my best friend. I miss being able to take her for walks. I am not able to walk her after dialysis, I am just to tired. I was a member of the ladies auxiliary at the volunteer fi re company for over 10 years but had to give it up because of dialysis and my illness. I have been sick most of my life and would love to just have a more normal life. I have a job at Target but can only work 1 day a week because I have to go to dialysis 3 days a week. I can’t work more at this time because I am usually very tired after dialysis and I have a lot of pain in my legs from the accesses in my legs and can’t stand for long periods of time. If anyone is willing/able to help me out, it would mean the world to me. I just want to be able to work, do things with my family, go on vacations, and just not be in so much pain! Please help if you can. It would change my life for the better. You would be giving me the best gift ever.

★ ★ Sudoku Challenge ★ ★To solve a Sudoku puzzle, place a number into each box so that each row across, each column down, and each small 9-box square within the larger diagram (there are 9 of these) will contain every number from 1 through 9. In other words, no number will appear more than once in any row, column, or smaller 9-box square. Working with the numbers already given as a guide, complete each diagram with the missing numbers that will lead to the correct solution.
