precisely 10:49 a.m. marks the beginning of one of the most wonderful times of the year in the foothills of the Allegheny Mountains. It’s the autumnal equinox, aka the fi rst day our fabulous fall season.
What could be better than crystal-clear, starlit nights in the low 40s when you crack open the bedroom windows, wrap yourself like a human burrito in layers of soft down quilts and awaken to rolling hills awash in glorious shades of crimson, orange and gold? This fall there is enough fun and adventure in the hills to lure even the most blissful snoozer out from under those nice warm blankets.
Saturday is a great time to head over to the premier purveyors of all things pumpkin at Pumpkinville for their annual Apple Cider Festival from 9 a.m.–7 p.m. Visitors can tour the entire cider making process in an authentic, old-fashioned cider mill with a 120-year-old cider press. Enjoy one of autumn’s most delicious beverages while munching on fresh pumpkin doughnuts and ice cream that are all made on the farm while you watch. When you have eaten your fi ll of all the delectable homemade treats, you can walk off your snack in the 6-acre corn maze, take a hayride or visit some of the many other attractions like the Cow Train, the Corn Cannon, Goat Mountain, and Storyland or the petting zoo.
Pumpkinville is a 200-acre farm located just minutes from Ellicottville and has the

by Mary FoxOn July 1, 2012, Governor
Andrew Cuomo signed a bill updating the New
Dignity For All Students
York State Dignity For All Students Act (DASA), which created the need to update parts of the Ellicottville
Central School Code of Conduct. Ellicottville Central is being proactive in implementing changes that are not required until July 1, 2013.
One issue taking precedence is bullying. It was discussed in detail by middle school/high schoolteachers at this Tuesday’s “Dignity” assemblies. Classes were broken up into small groups for interactive activities.
The school’s “Students Rights and Responsibilities policy” states that “students take part in district activities free of the harassment or discrimination.”

By Jann WiswallAfter calling the Town of
Ellicottville board meeting to order and approval of previous meeting minutes, Town Supervisor John Burrell introduced Joe Higgins, a former Ellicottville resident who now lives in Olean and served on the committee that planned and developed the 5.6-mile Allegheny River Valley Trail. Higgins gave a brief description of how the communities of Olean and Allegany worked together to establish what he now says is
Recreational Trail Tops Agenda at Ellicottville Town
Board Meetingthe “most utilized utility in the area.”
“People of all ages use the trail year round,” said Higgins.
Higgins recently offered to advise the Ellicottville committee that is studying the feasibility of developing a multi-use recreational trail that likely would be located from Ellicottville to Great Valley. He encouraged the town board to take the lead in making it happen, noting that Ellicottville’s “year round residents will use it most.” He also said that, while there are
challenges in getting adjacent landowners to agree to the idea, landowners are fully covered by State Law 9-103 that protects them from any damages caused by users. Plus, “they get to use them most,” he added.
Town Deputy Supervisor and Trail Committee Chair Ken Hinman thanked Higgins for giving the committee his valuable time and advice.
“We are honored to have his expertise on our committee,” said Hinman.

Allegany State Park. Who doesn’t love it? The camping, the programs, the hiking … so why not spend a few hours out of your year caring for the park you love.
On Saturday, Sept. 29, Allegany State Park will once again take part in National Public Lands Day. This is
a national celebration that gives people a chance to give back, by helping to care for the public lands they use.
This year’s celebration will focus on the Red House side of the park. Some of the projects will include work in the Butterfl y Meadow,

distinction of being the oldest, continuously operated pumpkin farm in New York – and perhaps the entire U.S. Pumpkinville is located just minutes from Ellicottville at 4844 Sugartown Rd. in Great Valley and is open every day through Oct. 31, from 9 a.m.–7 p.m. Admission is free with minimal fees for some of the special attractions. Go to www.pumpkinville.com or call (716) 699-2205 for more information.
Normally I’d avoid any event that incorporates the word “pain” in the title, but the First Annual Pain in the Alleganies Half Iron is a welcome exception. Pain in the Alleganies will be held this Sunday, Sept. 23 in the beautiful and steep hills of Allegany State Park in Salamanca. The event will include a longer distance triathlon, aquabike half iron, sprint distance triathlon, duathlon and relays in multiple events. The entire race takes place within Allegany State Park, which is renowned for its fantastic panoramic views and precipitous climbs.
Pain in the Alleganies is presented by Score This!!!, Inc., a company that is entering its 17th season of producing popular and challenging multisport competitions that are never cancelled, at least not to date. Neither snow nor rain nor heat
nor gloom of an epidemic of pulled hamstrings will prevent Score This!!! from the swift completion of their appointed event.
“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.”
You’ve got to get your “alleganies” out of bed early to catch all that pain and excitement. The sprint and duathlon begin at 8 a.m. or sun up, whichever comes fi rst. The triathlon and aquabike half distance start at 8:30 a.m. For more information, please visit www.score-this.com.
If you already have enough pain just getting out of bed in the morning, you will want to check out the Falling Leaves Festival in Salamanca to be held next weekend on Sept. 29–30. The Native Roots Artists Guild (NRAG) will celebrate the rich and diverse cultures of several Native American tribes as depicted in the works of Native American artists at the 35th Annual Falling Leaves
Festival. Come revel in the beauty
of the autumn season in the foothills of the Allegheny Mountains while viewing traditional and contemporary arts and crafts produced by these gifted artists. Visitors will enjoy modern interpretations of ancient pottery, hand carving, painting and beadwork designs that capture and illustrate the symbolism hidden in traditional native stories and legends. You can get more information including a full schedule of events by going to www.salamancachamber.org.
There’s more, like the Cattaraugus County Horse Show Series that ends the 2012 season with its Fall Finisher that runs from Friday, Sept. 21 to Sunday, Sept. 23 at noon at the Cattaraugus County Fairgrounds in Little Valley. All shows will be run as open shows and include year-end prizes, added money classes and weekend prizes.
You can get more information on all these and more upcoming events by visiting www.enchantedmountains.com/events.
And there it is. JAPWIP … just another perfect weekend in paradise.

Dan and Diane Pawlowski with various members of the staff and board of the Susan G. Komen foundation of WNY. Diane was honored at the Women of Infl uence Awards and Luncheon held Thursday, Sept. 20.Connoisseurs in pursuit
of the perfect pumpkin know there is only one place to fi nd a gorgeous gourd that’s ripe for the picking – Pumpkinville in Great Valley! It’s the season’s signature event, full of family-friendly activities to please everyone.
This year, Pumpkinville has added an exciting new “pink” pumpkin to its pumpkin yard. This new pumpkin is unique not only because of its color, but because its sale will benefi t local breast cancer services:
Dan and Diane Pawlowski, owners of Pumpkinville, are excited to off er this new addition to their variety of pumpkins and support the WNY Aff iliate of Susan G.
Pumpkinville Offers “Pink Pumpkins”
To Benefi t WNY Affi liate Of Susan G. Komen For The Cure®
Komen. “When Diane and I
researched growing pink pumpkins, we knew immediately we had to use them to raise money for the Susan G. Komen Western New York. They’ve been a huge success with our crowds and we’ve only been open fi ve days!” said Dan Pawlowski.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale of each “pink” pumpkin will be donated to the WNY Aff iliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure®. Funds raised by the Komen WNY Aff iliate go to support local breast health education and outreach programs and services for families aff ected by this disease.
Diane Pawlowski will be honored at the Women
of Infl uence Awards and Luncheon. The Pawlowski family took over Pumpkinville in 1996, making it an entertainment destination for families wanting to do something on a fall afternoon. Dan and Diane and their children Lisa and Jim combined their creativity with hard work to grow Pumpkinville into the regional tourist attraction it is today.
Pumpkinville is located at 4844 Sugartown Road, off Route 98 in Great Valley, just minutes from Ellicottville and is open from September 15th through Halloween, October 31st, 9am – 7pm each day. Admission is free. For more information visit: www.pumpkinville.com

After one of the best and most FUN Rock N Oldies, or what we now call Rock N Roll Weekend here in Ellicottville, we now move on towards and look forward to Fall Festival, our next really FUN Festival weekend. Great weather brought in over three hundred cars to The Classic Car Show, the highlight of Rock N Roll Weekend. So as we move into fall, Ellicottville continues to be really a FUN place to visit or, better yet, live.Before we get too engrossed
in fall, we probably should take advantage of the nice weather sill have with a round or two of golf. Both Elkdale Country Club and Holiday Valley are still in excellent shape. All you need to do is call either course, make a Tee time then get out and enjoy what is left of the great season we’ve had. So here we go on next week,
which, music wise, appears to be in the same league as last week. However, the band numbers are back to normal for this time of year. Starting today, Friday September 21, 2012 through Thursday September 27, 2012, we will have nine Bands, two DJ’s, several All-Week Sound System Music Events plus the great food and beverage specials offered by Ellicottville’s wonderful clubs and restaurants. All of which, will give us a reason to get out and enjoy the fi rst week of fall.Like we have done the last
few weeks, here are some thoughts on good places to visit that will be music free. We begin with Tips Up Cafe. Here we have a wonderful restaurant located on Washington Street. That, 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 an excellent dinner as part of a really neat night out on the town. 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. 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 chicken entries are great. One of the Sound System
events will take place in The Depot, which will be open Friday through Sunday. Along with their pizza and wing specials, The Depot’s Super Sound System will again be playing the tunes of “The Rolling Stones” and “AC/DC”.Our band parade begins
at 7:00 PM Friday night in Balloons with “The Jony James Band”. Jony James, a veteran “Buffalo Blues Icon” who has been doing regular blues gigs in and around Buffalo for years will

Rock N’ Roll Weekend • Photos by Jennie Acklin
have his three-piece band with him for this gig. As his website says and we have said in the past, Jony’s music is overfl owing with soul that drips down from his hands onto his guitar. It then pours out through his weathered, leathery voice telling vivid tales of a tumultuous life. Following “Jony James” DJ John Barry will keep the party rolling with his LIVE Personality Show-Off Show from Balloons Sound & Light Booth. John’s show, as always, will include a very FUN & danceable selection of tunes along with LIVE chatter/chatter till close.Returning to 9:00 PM
Friday The Gin Mill “RT Live” will be WOWING The Gin Mill Crowd with his acoustic version of many classics to country rock tunes. RT, as we know, is also part of “The Far Out Band” a regular Gin Mill Thursday band, will be a solo act for this show. Like he always does, he will create another, FUN, acoustic Gin Mill Night of Music. For those of you who enjoy a late night meal, The Gin Mill is the place. They serve their excellent, reasonably priced menu till midnight on weekends.Moving to Saturday the
music begins just after 4:00 PM in Kabobs Kafe with “Bruce Dominessy” doing his “Me, Myself & I” acoustic jazzy solo gig. Like we all know, this is an easy listening and great way to kick off your Saturday evening. Just stop in Kabob’s Kafe, enjoy the music with a cocktail and a great Kabob’s Kafe Dinner. Then at 6:00 PM Saturday,
Balloons will have “Sky” on their music stage. It has been over a year since this wonderful Balloons regular band has been here. Their music is cover classic to pop rock from the fi fties to today. Dave and Sherri Hackett, the heart and soul of “Sky”, do excellent versions of tunes by Heart, Steely Dan, Fleetwood Mac, Eagles and Neil Young, plus many more. We are in for another excellent Balloons show. Following “Sky” “DJ Chatty Frank Watson”, “The FUN Party Monster”, will have his antenna adjusted. This will allow him to display his innovative party continuation plan along with trend setting chit/chat and neat tune selection till close.Returning to 9:00 PM
Saturday, there will be two gigs. First The Gin Mill will have “The Smarty Jones & Friends Band” back on their music stage. As we saw earlier this year, RT and a couple of his friends have formed this very interesting band. The show this three-piece group does includes many classic to country rock tunes done in a very audience involved and friendly style that will have The Gin Mill Music Lovin Crowd Bopin & Wevin to the music of this really FUN band. Also at 9:00 PM Saturday
The PUB in Great Valley will have Fuzzy Smith and “The Two Hour Notice Band” in House. This veteran Olean Band, that years ago included RT Live, is now a four-piece cover classic rock
band playing a tune list that includes AC/DC to ZZ Top and everything in between. You will hear Billy Joel. Bob Seger, Blackfoot, Brian Adams plus many more. This band will have The PUB Rockin.After another Bills win
over Cleveland, we hope, on Sunday, we move on to Monday beginning in The Gin Mill with their “All U Can Eat Spaghetti Dinner” for only $6.99. As always, “Country Connor, The Crash Dummy” will be on bar duty feeding The Gin Mill’s Sound System with excellent traditional country tunes that will make this wonderful Gin Mill Dinner Special even better. Monday rounds out at 10:00 PM Sharp with Madigans Church on Monday. Reverend Jack along with Deacon Dan will be ROCKIN their loyal following with another night of original Honky Tonk to Rock-A-Billy tunes done in their FUN and entertaining way. Therefore, another Unique Madigans Music Night will happen. Moving to 8:00 PM Wednesday, The Gin Mill will have Joe Wagner and John Winston doing their neat and traditional folk to southern rock acoustic music show. As we all know, this Gin Mill Tradition of well over twenty years is one of the best and most FUN music nights in Ellicottville and The Gin Mill has it going every Wednesday. Then at 8:00 PM Thursday “The FAR Out” version of “Freddie & Friends” will be back ROCKIN The Gin Mill. “The FAR Out Band”, which as we know is “The Fred And RT OUTstanding Band”, with Freddie on bongos and vocals and RT on guitar and vocals. Again, we will get to hear tunes with an excellent country to southern rock sound. Thereby creating another excellent Gin Mill Night of Music. C. U. Round The Music Scene Good Stuff No Worries

The formal meeting resumed with a review of Supervisors’ reports. Mark Alianello, town engineer, updated the board on the status of the Four Flushers Project.
“The soil reports were great, the plan is doable, we just need money,” he said. If the state decides that western New York will receive funding for water improvements, $281,000 could be available for this project. If the western state is not funded, there may or may not be funding, he explained.
Burrell discussed the latest developments in the Ellicottville Historical Society’s improvements to the Jefferson Street Cemetery, including discovery of 33 unmarked graves, headstone cleaning progress, cemetery signage and possible new funding sources.
Burrell also reported on a number of town insurance policy updates. There was a slight, but anticipated, increase in cost for town insurance coverage over last year. The town also purchased a “builder’s risk policy” and materials coverage for construction of the new town garage.
Progress Made on Town Garage, Bike
Path, Floodplain StudyPolice Offi cer in Charge Don
Auge started the department head reports by stating that the police department is fully prepared for Fall Fest and reiterated how well the Centurion Bike Race had gone from the law enforcement perspective.
Dave Golley, transportation department head, then reported on progress on the town garage/pole barn construction. To date, he said, the rafters have been set, steel is being delivered, they’re digging footers and setting forms, and next week they’ll be working on walls. Golley asked the board to
Ellicottville Town Board MeetingCont. from Front Page
approve a request to bid out raw material for the garage fl oor; the motion was approved and the department will advertise for bids.
Mark Alianello, town engineer, reported that he had received two bids for materials for the Route 242 water line extension. The low bid was provided by Lock City Supply; the board approved the low bid. Council member John Northrup pointed out that Northrup Construction is paying for the part of the extension that runs from Route 242 across the new Tim Horton restaurant property, to the Northrup building on Route 219.
“The town is benefi tting from what John (Northrup) is doing,” said Burrell.
Alianello also reported on the Floodplain Study
commissioned by the board. The goal of the study is to update fl oodplain maps originally drawn by FEMA. The board hopes that, given improvements to bridges and roadways over the past several years, it may be able to show FEMA that fewer properties lie in a fl oodplain and, if so, many property owners may be able to drop their fl ood insurance coverage. Alianello and Village Engineer Mike Smith met with the contractor on the project to review existing mapping and determine what next steps are required.
Under the heading of Old Business, Ken Hinman reported on additional updates from the Recreational Trail Committee. He said that the Great Valley Town Board was very receptive to the idea and wants to be part
of it. The committee hopes to add a Great Valley Board member to the committee in the near future. Jennie Acklin, editor of this newspaper and a member of the committee, reported that she had reached Ray Miranda, owner of the new Tim Horton’s franchise, about the trail.
“He was very supportive, especially since one end of the route might be located at the new Tim Hortons,” said Acklin.
With that, Hinman called for a motion to assign the lead role in coordinating the Recreational Trail Project to the town board. The motion was passed without dissent.
The next Town of Ellicottville Board meeting will be held at 6 p.m. on Oct. 17.
By William ThomasI love the country of Portugal but sometimes everyday routines can be much like their castles: medieval.
On one recent trip to Portugal, I walked zombie-like down the steps of the Air Transat Toronto to Lisbon fl ight and onto the shuttle bus. When I walked into the customs terminal with three hundred other sleep-deprived passengers at 6:40 a.m., we very much expected to be met by customs offi cials. Thirty-fi ve minutes later, a small riot erupted when three customs employees, embarrassed and fl ustered, quickly unlocked doors and rapidly rubber-stamped everybody through in a matter of minutes. So much for heightened security.
I eased my rented Opel out of the parking garage and began the slow, unwinding drive across the new Vasco da Gama Bridge and on down to the southwest coast of Portugal. After a brief reunion with my friend Fernando, I moved my things into one of his kitchenettes overlooking the sea at Vila Nova de Milfontes (called “Milfonch” for short).
As much as I wanted to crash for a couple of hours, I remembered the banks would be closed the next day , so, functioning mostly from memory, I walked downtown and spent half an hour in line at Nova Rede, a national bank with outlets everywhere in Portugal. Later, much, much later I would learn that Nova Rede doesn’t
The Portuguese bank: Bring lunch if you plan to rob it
actually change money. Tough way for a bank to make a living – not trading in currency.
So I lined up at Credito Agricola, an agricultural credit union that now sees many more tourists than farmers. At Credito Agricola they welcome new customers by trapping them in the foyer. The outside door locks behind you and the inner door doesn’t open until they approve of your appearance. “Hmm, a geek in shorts on a winter day with a ball hat and backpack? This should be fun.” Bzzz – I was allowed in.
Inside the tiny offi ce were twenty-two customers, four wickets and two tellers, who were working so slowly they looked like Canadian postal workers on Valium. I noticed the customers were split into three lines, an odd number given the two tellers. But the lines kind of blurred and merged as everyone talked and visited with people in other lines. It was like a town hall meeting. Old men with hands behind their backs discussed, I don’t know, cork trees and tent caterpillars, while women emphasized their points by slapping fi ngers in open palms. A baby was much adored and cooed at. It was the Buena Banco Social Club.
Heads down, the tellers were oblivious to the milling crowd. They might well have been napping. Whenever a customer completed a transaction and moved away from the counter, which didn’t happen all that
often, people rushed the teller from the front of all the lines. Then the losers returned to their respective lines and continued to pretend there was some sort of service system in place in this bank. A short guy with thick glasses circled the lines like a roving tailback ready to punch through any opening at the front.
Unfortunately, the woman at the head of my line was: a) non-aggressive; b) polite: and c) determined to retell the story of the Old Testament to the woman behind her. More genufl ecting was going on than you normally see in a church, let alone a credit union.
Much grumbling went on in my line, as well as a few choice words in English.
Suddenly, there was an opening and the rover and the woman at the front of my line hit the counter in a dead heat. It was like watching the Buffalo Bills on fourth down and goal to go, without a quarterback. Words were exchanged, hands were thrown up and the woman backed off and returned to the head of my line because – I’m guessing here – she was only up to Daniel and the Den of Lions and she still had the story of Jonah and the Whale to tell.
I stood in line for one more hour before I got to change my money. It could have been a lot worse. As it turned out, half of the people in the bank weren’t
there to do business, they justcame along to chat with thosewho had some sort of purposein life. So they left in twos andthrees and once the baby wasgone, the party seemed to peterout.
I’m telling you, the Canadiandollar dropped six cents in thetime it took for me to get mymoney changed. The innerworkings of a Portuguese bankare so disorganized, I don’tthink you could actually robone without packing a lunch andchecking your gun a couple oftimes for dust accumulation.
And yet, in the window of ashop on “the Strip” in Albufeira, Icame face to face with Shop 24 –where nine rows of merchandise,including vodka, Scotch, wine,underwear, toothpaste andcooking and sanitary productsare fetched for you by a robotafter you drop your money in aslot. In the same country whereit takes an hour to change money,they’ve to a 207-item vendingmachine that is operated twenty-four hours a day be R2D2.

At the August Town Board meeting,an inspection report revealed that emergency repairs were needed so that damage to the building would not occur. Peterson Roofi ng of Olean submitted a bid of $14,300 for the highly technical project, which required a hydraulic lift operated by a qualifi ed contractor.

By Eva PotterIf you’re tired of the
hustle and bustle of summer festivals, a perfect way to slow down life for a little while is a leisurely, self-guided drive through Amish country located along the western border of Cattaraugus County.
As you meander along winding country roads, be sure to visit the businesses participating in the Amish Trail Fall Open House on October 4 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Debbie Opferbeck, tourism specialist for the Cattaraugus County Department of Economic Development, Planning and Tourism, said there will be a variety of goods sold with hand-on activities at some locations.
“At Beauty View, you can make a blue bird house. Hand Dyed by Lori is a beautiful new facility where they sell the products that they produce on site. This place is awesome especially if you like sewing,” said Opferbeck.
“Randolph Peaches and Cream will have fall items and produce, and Randolph Retail has an eclectic collection of unique gifts, women’s clothing, jewelry, accessories and home decor at affordable prices.”
She said there are products available for purchase at the Salamanca and Leon Museums, and the Mansfi eld Museum will be open to visitors as well. Museums are free and open to the public.

As you follow the trail, visit each participating member location and be sure to sign up to enter the drawing for the big prize (a grouping of local items shown on the event poster). The drawing is open to everyone with no purchase necessary and will take place Dec. 15. Winners will be notifi ed and you do not need to be present to win.
While Amish-run businesses are not participating formally in the open house, they will be open to shoppers. Start your holiday shopping early and surprise your friends and family with quality Amish home-produced products like rugs, solid-wood furniture, fresh baked goods, toys, jams, quilts and more.
There are over 100 Amish locations to visit! Look for “open” signs in front of businesses as well as a listing their specialty products.
The Fall Open House takes place on a Saturday, so most Amish shops will be open.
Note that shops are closed on Sundays, some Wednesdays, certain holidays, and for barn raisings, weddings and funerals. Many participating businesses on the Amish Trail Open House may accept credit cards and checks, but Amish-run businesses only accept cash.
Please use extra caution as you enjoy your self-guided tour and watch for the signature black buggies. The Amish do not wish to be photographed as it goes against their beliefs, so please respect their privacy as well as their personal property.

On Sept. 26, Aneen Barrera and Lucie Olson will be holding their annual Nicaraguan Education Fund Party at the Birdwalk restaurant. Everyone is welcome to attend.
Barrera has spent three months for each of the past fi ve years in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, a tourist resort town with plush h otels, beaches and quaint streets, a sharp contrast to the poverty found in the surrounding town and jungle villages.
Barrera and Olson, retired teachers from Allegany-Limestone School, hold this fundraiser every year and donate 100 percent of the funds toward the educational needs of children living there in poverty.
“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 Barrera.
Barrera and Olson pay for all their own transportation, housing, food and incidentals while
Nicaraguan Educational
Fundraiser at Birdwalk Sept. 26
there. They have become well know in San Juan del Sur and the people have learned that they are there to help their kids
“We see the need and the appreciation,” said Barrera. “We dealt with education for over 30 years and it never leaves.”
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 stores 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 the work Barrera, Olson and other volunteers do in Nicaragua.
If you can’t make it to the party, please send a check payable to: Aneen Barrera, Nicaragua Education Fund, 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.

On Sept. 25, 2012, a new opportunity will be given to learn how to get out of debt and in control of your money. Dave Ramsey, a personal money management expert, an extremely popular national radio personality and author of the New York Times best sellers, The Total Money Makeover, Financial Peace and More Than Enough, has created a fun and educational way to learn how to become fi nancially independent.
A fi nancial planning course called the Financial Peace
Master Your Gardenaster Your GardenBy Barbara Kozlowski, Master Gardener
The beauty of September – the leaves slowly changing color, crops ripening in the fi elds, cooler nights but still warm sunshiny days and the crisp autumn smell in the air. I love this time of the year with all the good things it brings. It is also a little sad, as the hummingbirds have fi nally left and parts of the garden are beyond their peak performance stage. The fall season is just beginning with a whole new outlook and time to prepare for the much cooler weather pattern – maybe yes and maybe no.
With cooler days and nights, it’s time to retrieve your indoor plants from their outdoor location and prepare to return to their fall and winter locations in your home. Before you bring in these plants, thoroughly spray the soil area to kill any insect pests that may have set up housekeeping in the soil or on the plant itself. You can also wash the foliage with a warm soapy solution to debug them. Your indoor plants should be brought back inside as soon as
possible and no later than the beginning of October. Indoor plants may also go into a hibernation period if left outside too long.
With the cooler weather and heavy dew we seem to experience, your lawn will start a new growing pattern. Grass is a cool-weather crop, and after the heat and almost drought-like conditions of this past summer season, it is raring to grow. I believe my grass was growing while I was cutting it. The bright green of new growing grass is a pleasant contrast to the changing leaves. This is evident looking at our ski slopes and the trees growing in between.
Now is the time to pick up new perennials at garden centers and nurseries. They still have plenty of time to become established before the snow fl ies. You can also divide any existing perennials in your garden to share with friends or place in a diff erent area of one of your existing or new gardens. The cooler weather helps them to become established and
will not stress them as during the summer heat.
I also like to pick up a few new fi eld mums to add additional color to an existing garden and look forward to them returning the following year. If you decide to plant mums in your garden, mark their location and watch for them to return next summer for fall color.
A late summer and fall-blooming perennial I have placed in my garden is Autumn Joy Sedum. It starts with green foliage in the spring and the fl owers begin as pale pink blooms and deepen in color as the fall season progresses. These fl ower stems dry beautifully and can be sprayed to any color if you should desire. I love the deep burgundy color when they are dry.
The cooler weather seems to stimulate the appetite for comfort foods. One of my favorites is squash or pumpkin soup. This is a hearty soup that’s easy to make from local, in-season produce.
1 butternut squash or pie pumpkin, baked until soft4 cups low-sodium chicken broth1 tablespoon olive oil1 large onion, diced2 cooking apples, peeled, cored and sliced
Squash/Pumpkin Soup
Barb Kozlowski Barb Kozlowski
Heat the oil in a large pot. Add the onions and sauté until soft. Add the apples and cook until softened, then add the chicken broth. Scoop out the squash/pumpkin from its shell and mash. Add to the onions, apples and chicken broth and cook stirring frequently until everything is almost combined. At this time, you can either use a blender to puree any large pieces still remaining if desired. I like a few chunks. The apples add sweetness to the soup. Season with salt and pepper, if desired, and serve hot with a crusty bread. Bon appetit!
Financial Planning Course Offered at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church
Financial Peace University in Ellicottville Sept 2-Nov 20University is being offered on Tuesday nights (from Sept. 25–Nov. 20) from 7-8:30 p.m. in the Community Room of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church located at 6360 Route 242 East in Ellicottville.

Bullying is harassment and may include non-acceptance of another person because of religion, socioeconomic status, intolerance, hazing, etc. Bullying can be physical or emotional. It is repetitive and often thought out.
Bob Miller, ECS middle school/high school principal, addressed the senior class gathered in the chorus room. Afterwards, class off icers were interviewed about their feeling of harassment at ECS.
Vice President Alex Steinbroner answered that he feels “the middle school needs more enforcement of the code of conduct.” President William Murphy agreed and added that “the high school takes care of itself pretty well.” Secretary
Janae Hamilton said she has never been aware of any problems.
Two teachers, Tammy Eddy and Dan LaCroix, and Miller are trained to deal with incidents of discrimination at the school. They are required to take special training to work with students with complete confi dentiality to deal with incidents of discrimination. They are always available to help students deal with bullying.
Parents or students can also report incidences, along with other concerns, anonymously on the ECS website (www.ellicottvillecentral.com). Just click on “Report a Concern” on the home page in the left-hand column. Miller has already had three such concerns so far
this year.Cyber bullying was
addressed and defi ned as the use of the Internet to make or spread hurtful or rude messages, pictures or anything that makes fun of others, whether at school or away. It can lead to a student being suspended from school.
“The point is you should do something. Stand up for your classmates and yourself. You don’t have to take bullying or unwanted behavior of one person over another. If you are aware of incidents of bullying, do something. Go see Mr. LaCroix or Mrs. Eddy, myself or a teacher or a parent. Bullying will never happen here (at ECS),” Miller stressed.

by Mary FoxLast Thursday, Sept. 17,
Ellicottville Central School Superintendent Mark Ward, along with members of the ECS Board of Education, took residents of the district on a tour of the school’s facilities.
The tour began in the renovated high school wing, which was gutted and modernized in 2005 with a new, state-of-the-art library (the center of the school for grades 7-12) including air conditioning and computers for student use. Lab rooms and classrooms were updated along with new furniture, larger hall lockers, new terrazzo fl oors and wider hallways.
One small storage room contains $50,000 or more of Buff alo Bills exercise equipment given to the school. Used occasionally, it is awaiting a place in the gym area.
The new middle school classrooms added in 2005, between the high school and elementary gyms, revealed more state of
ECS Walk-Through Reveals Renovation Needs
the art equipment in the art room and a distance learning room containing $50,000–$75,000 of high-tech equipment that was donated by BOCES.
A Building Conditions Survey of the older parts built in 1962 and 1988 revealed many areas in need of remodeling, renovating or updating.
Ward pointed out that the high school/middle school gym is the hub of the school.
“We won’t even suggest an auditorium, but the gym could be reconfi gured to have a stage and be used diff erently to enhance all the things we do – concerts, assemblies, graduation, tests, banquets – while still being a gym,” he said. “The high school cafeteria was built in 1962 and has not been updated since. It is not designed to meet our present needs.”
The most desperate needs are in the locker rooms, and band and chorus rooms. The rooms are extremely crowded and the lockers are 1962
originals, which are too small and in poor shape. The rooms also lack proper lighting and need new ceilings.
The band room is extremely crowded with 65 high school students in the band crammed into the small space. The chorus room does not allow space for the risers to be placed properly. They both have ventilation issues, antiquated equipment and need new carpeting.
The old classrooms and home economics room built in 1962 need major updating. All have only two electrical outlets and the asbestos tiles need to be replaced.
“We don’t want to create new space. We just want to reconfi gure what we have,” Ward stressed several times during the walk-through.
In the elementary wing built in 1988, there is an issue with the rubber-based fl ooring in the cafeteria/gym. The room’s use is split, functioning as the elementary gym and a lunchroom, making it very labor intensive. There are also ventilation and moisture issues in the elementary wing.
On the grounds, better lighting is needed on the sports fi eld. The current lights were donated in 1977 in memory of Frank Pitillo.
Following the walk-through, a discussion was held regarding fi nancing.
Ward said, “We can’t say what we are going to do and how much it will cost. We need input of ideas to make sure it is the best possible project for the community.”
Another meeting will be held on Tuesday, Oct. 2 at 7 p.m. in the high school library. Ward extended an open invitation to anyone in the community to serve on a committee to pursue this project. You can contact him at the school by calling (716) 699-2368.

Pumpkinville & Rock N’ Roll Weekend • Photos by Jennie Acklin
Kody Sprague, Sprague Development, developer of the Nannen bat factory site at 11-13 Elizabeth Street, gave a progress report of the new construction taking place. New tennants include an 8 lane bowling alley (scheduled to be open this fall) and Tim and Bonnie’s Pizza. Sprague is holding a Facebook contest to name the new development - go to their page, Sprague Development, and make a suggestion.
Kody has been very active in the Ellicottville community recently, working with the Centurion organizers utilize the Elizabeth St. property for their materials and supplies, and they also used the Washington St., parking lot for the actual bike storage. For Octoberfest, the parking lot on Washington St (Coffee Culture-Subway-Dom’s Butcher) will host the carnival, as it has for years. He is also interested in working with the Ellicottville Recreational Trail committee on possibly utilizing part of the Elizabeth Street property.
by Jeff ColeWhile some will be
enjoying Fall Festival’s arts and crafts show or taking in the sight of the colorful autumn leaves Oct. 6-7, hundreds of others will be involved in one or both heart-pumping events scheduled for that weekend.
For the 12th year, the Fall Festival 5K Run will take place on Oct. 6 at Holiday Valley Resort. The race will start at 10 a.m. at Holiday Valley Rd. near the Customer Service Building where registration will be held at 8:30 a.m. Preregistration, which costs $20, can be done by following the link on heartrateup.com and the fi rst 250 registrants will receive T-shirts.
Mark Lawrence, founder of Heartrateup.com, said he is expecting 350 runners from several surrounding states to come to enjoy the annual Fall Festival and get a great workout.
According to Lawrence, runners will appreciate a challenging course with appealing views of the countryside, the smell of fall, along with a big weekend festival and “spending time with hundreds of athletes sharing the same eagerness for fi tness.”
According to Heartrateup.com, “The course is a wild trek down to Route 219 including great views of the foliage and back up Holiday Valley Rd. for a challenging climbing fi nish.” Runners will be able to rehydrate at a water station located at the halfway point.
A post-race party and awards ceremony at the Mountain Sports Center will follow the run and will include lunch and door

prizes. The top overall male, female, masters male and masters female riders will receive awards, as will the top three fi nishers in the following fi ve-year age groups: under-14, 15-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-and-up.
The Fall Festival Mountain Bike Race will start at 10 a.m. on Oct. 7 at the Holiday Mountain Sports Center. It’s a rain or shine event with classes for all ability levels. Lawrence said about 200 riders from all over Western New York and several surrounding states expected to participate in the 15th year of the race.
Preregistration, which is $20, can be done through BikeReg.com by following the link on Heartrateup.com. Online preregistration ends Oct. 4 at 5 p.m. No worries if you miss it. You can still register on race day beginning at 9 a.m. at the Mountain Sports Center. Remember – helmets are mandatory.
According to Heartrateup.com, the singletrack race will feature “4-mile laps of hammering featuring a stretched out fi rst mile, blazing cool single track, white
knuckle rock gardens and downhills plus a pumping vibe.” The number of laps that a cyclist completes will depend upon his or her level, ranging from one lap as a novice to four laps as an expert.
Lawrence said, “(It’s) a whopper of a mountain bike course featuring climbs, single track and fun, challenging downhill sections.”
Cash prizes are awarded at the expert level, while lower levels are eligible for other awards like a custom plaque featuring the 2012 Fall Festival Mountain Bike Race design, which will be awarded three deep in 10-year age groups. Door and raffl e prizes include over 50 items from race sponsors, with a grand raffl e prize of a 2012 Manitou Minute Expert Fork.
Both the 5K and Mountain Bike Race support HEART Animal Placement Services.
If you enjoy the autumn air and the vibrant leaves at a faster pace than some, then these events are right for you. Afte r the race, wander into the bustling village to celebrate your achievement and experience some Fall Fest fun.
