Each participant received a certificate and coloring book! Do you know your trivia? 1. How many legs does a cat have? 2. What is a female deer called? 3. What is the name of the reindeer from the movie Frozen? 4. What is the fastest land animal? ANSWERS: 4, doe, Sven, cheetah By Emma Preischel & Julianna Baker ___________

Shop Locally This Holiday Season
The benefits of shopping locally go beyond convenience. The following are a few ways that shopping locally this holiday season can directly benefit your community and the people who call it home. Local economy: When men and women shop locally, they are putting money back into their local communities. Local small businesses may be owned by your neighbors, and it can be comforting to know that your holiday shopping dollars are going to support a neighbor instead of a large corporation. Local businesses also employ your neighbors, so shopping local can strengthen the local economy by creating jobs that may not exist if you and members of your community fail to support local small businesses. Community identity: Local small businesses go a long way toward creating a neighborhood identity, and that identity can create a stronger sense of community among you and your neighbors. In addition, a unique community identity can make your town more attractive to outsiders, and that appeal can improve the value of local real estate while also attracting more people to local businesses in your neighborhood. Uniqueness of gifts: The gifts you buy when shopping locally also can benefit your community. Gifts purchased from small local businesses tend to be more unique than items bought from national chains, as smaller retailers tend to sell more homemade items than their national competitors. Recipients of such items may find such gifts more thoughtful than mass produced items bought from national chains, and the uniqueness of homemade gifts may encourage the gifts' recipients to visit your community and do some shopping, further benefitting your local economy. Customer service: The accessibility of customer service is another oft-overlooked benefit of shopping locally. When buying from national chains, especially during the holiday season when such businesses may be overwhelmed with orders, making contact with customer service departments can be a trying exercise in patience. Long wait times on the phone or online can make the process of contacting customer service extremely frustrating. But such frustration is rare when buying from local businesses, as consumers can simply take their products into the store, where employees can immediately address their concerns. In addition, buying locally makes it more convenient for friends and family members who also live in your community to return their gifts. The Eden- North Collins Pennysaver proudly promotes local businesses. Please consider spending some of your holiday time and dollars right here at home.
Thank You Eden Chamber of Commerce for honoring me as “Citizen of the Year.” I was further honored having the Eden Pennysaver honored as “Business of the Year” at the same time. I would especially like to thank Ruth Owen Bucki for her part in honoring me and for continuing the Randall Agency for the past 22 years. Also thanks to Don Stuhr of the Four Corners Café for his part in the ceremonies, and to all the people who attended. -Ferris Randall

VETERANS POST by Freddy Groves
Stealing from the V.A. I read a lot of reports about the fraud that goes on in connection with the Department of Veterans Affairs. I shouldn’t be surprised anymore at the levels people will stoop to when it comes to fraud and stealing money and resources that belong to veterans and taxpayers. But sometimes I am. Take the VA supervisor in Connecticut who had her house fixed up, courtesy of VA employees. This wasn’t a one-time deal, either. Over the course of three years she had VA employees build a new deck, install carpet and make improvements to kitchen, bathroom and basement. They used materials, tools and vehicles that belonged to the VA. Extra items were purchased with her government-issued
credit card. Sometimes the employees worked on her house while they were on the clock for the VA. She could have gotten 10 years in prison. Did serve time? Heck no. She received a mere slap on the wrist: community service, restitution of the amount she stole and six months of at-home monitoring ... the better to enjoy the new stuff the VA built for her. Online I’ve managed to find her home address, her Connecticut voter ID number, her marriage license, DOB and a resume. I only hope that future employers dig as deeply. However, that’s not the end of the story. What of those employees who did the work on her house? Was there not one among them
who thought to speak out? Was the fear of reprisal that strong? If you’re a VA employee and are unsure of how to blow the whistle on things you know are wrong, go here: www.va.gov/oig/hotline. The number is 800-4888244. Or call the Office of Special Counsel (www.osc. gov) at 800-572-2249, or use the POGO secure dropbox at www.vaoversight.org. Freddy Groves regrets that he cannot personally answer reader questions, but will incorporate them into his column whenever possible. Send email to columnreply2@gmail.com. (c) 2014 King Synd., Inc.
Features
Local Businesses Help Make Holiday Gatherings Festive Time is in short supply during the holiday season. Between shopping, cooking, baking and wrapping, there seems to be precious few hours to tackle anything else. Those who desire an old-fashioned, homemade holiday can still experience all of the seasonal magic by deferring some of the work to local businesses. Decorating Much of the splendor of the holiday season comes directly from the intricately decorated houses and storefronts. Twinkling lights and garlands of fresh pine boughs can instantly transform any building. Look to our local farmers and farm markets for help creating a winter wonderland at your home or business. Baking What would the holiday season be without the sweet treats and inviting smells of freshly baked goods? The cooler weather is an ideal time to turn on the oven and whip up a batch of cookies or cakes. Others would prefer desserts that provide homemade flair without the effort. Local bakers and bakeries can help with the perfect dessert for your holiday table, whether it be pastries, cookies or pies. When hosting friends and family, visit our local supermarkets for your baking supplies or contact a local baker for a decadent treat. Catering Catering a party is an easy way to offer guests delicious food with minimal work. Local caterers can provide everything from sit-down dinners to buffet spreads. Some restaurants that do not normally cater events may offer special packages this time of year. Also, local stores and markets have party platters and holiday specials to make your meal planning a breeze. Parties Social calendars fill up come November and December. When hosting a gathering of coworkers, family or friends, choose local venues for social events. Travel to and from the party is easier on guests and you are supporting local venues. Gifting Shopping at local vendors often means more personalized service and a less stressful experience. A specialty store may have that unique gift not easily found elsewhere, and shop owners may be able to special-order bulk gifts. Some of our local retailers also offer specialized services, such as gift-wrapping or personal shopping. Shopping locally can help holiday shoppers save time and support their communities.

Thank You
On behalf of the Ken and Molly Szal family, we would like to thank everyone for attending Molly’s recent benefit and making it a tremendous success. We would like to thank God for blessing us with the strength we need to get through this journey, and for blessing us with the great friends and people, in general, that have supported us since Molly’s diagnosis. We would like to thank the volunteers, donors, and Newell Faulkner Post 880 for all their hard work and countless hours they contributed. We would like to thank the business community throughout the entire WNY region for their support. We would also like to thank a very special group of people, the committee. Too many to mention, this group totaled about 40 people. It was made up of our families, Legion brothers and sisters, card club friends and the class of ’72. They coordinated the event, and made it amazing for us. May God bless you all. As we continue on our road to recovery, we thank all for their continued support and prayer. Ken, Molly & Family

Mother Nature’s Birthday Gift Story by Christina M. Abt Photos by Terry Zittel
George and Paul Zittel are brothers. Specifically, they are the elders in a family of seven generations bound together by a love of the land and a dedication to farming. Last week George and Paul celebrated their birthdays. George on November 18th and Paul on November 22nd----the same days that WNY’s historic lake effect storm began and subsided. As it turned out, those were also the days that began and ended the collapse of their family’s 182-year old farm business. Images of the 50-inches of dense snow that blanketed Eden this week weigh heavy on the Zittel brothers. The snow weighed even heavier on their farms, as it collapsed more than 90% of their four acres of greenhouses. Yet, according to Paul, while Mother Nature’s force may have collapsed their business, it has not bowed their determination. “If my father were here I know damn well what he would do. He would get right back up and start again. This is a big hurt to our family but we still know what we have to do. We’ll start from one side of the farm and rebuild, piece by piece.” Early estimates of damage to the Zittel’s farms span the $2 to $3 million range. Insurance will cover some, but not all, of their rebuilding costs. Government disaster funds may help, but at this point that aide is unknown. What the family does know is that Mother Nature waits for no one. “At this point our total winter production is gone. The flower baskets, the geraniums and the vegetable plants that we traditionally produce for wholesalers are destroyed,” Paul said. “That represents at least 20 percent of our greenhouse business, a third of our total income. And we need to get the greenhouses back up and running next month or we won’t get our vegetables started for the growing season, another 40 percent of our annual business. No doubt we’ve taken a hit, but
This is the first in a series of articles detailing the devastating impact of the November Storm upon WNY’s rural community and the remarkable ways in which people are facing and rising above the challenges. we are doing all that we can to ensure that our customers will be taken care of by other suppliers around the country and come Monday we will get started on rebuilding.” Long known as a leader in the Ag community, Paul Zittel acknowledges they are not the only WNY farmers impacted by last week’s winter storm. Without pause, he reels off a list of area farmers who have suffered losses, noting not only their names but the buildings destroyed and the livestock now gone. He sees the devastation as community-wide. “This is a financial hit that the WNY farm community has never experienced before and it’s going to be tough, but we are going to get through. We’ve helped others and now they will help us. We all have a com-
mitment to continue.” In the last week, the outpouring of help for the Zittels has included area farmers offering available greenhouse space, needed operational equipment coming from as far away as Rochester and support from New York State Ag and Markets in the form of volunteer labor and equipment. A supplier for Zittel’s retail store in Hamburg even helped clear snow from the parking lot to make room for their Christmas tree delivery. It’s a helping hands tradition that permeates the farming community, since natural disasters are part of the business. Which leads to the question, why continue in an industry that faces disaster with such regularity? George Zittel answers without hesitation “When you have a love
of farming, it encompasses you. You live it all the time and it grows inside of you to want to succeed. So when disaster hits, we don’t think about quitting. We think about regrouping, perhaps even taking a different direction, which in the end often becomes a positive, an improvement that was not anticipated. And as long as the economics are there that allow us to make a living, we continue.” Still, as the Zittel Family took hack saws to the outer shells of their snowburdened greenhouses to try and save the frames and infrastructure, Paul emotionally concedes that there was little positive about the task. “I built every one of those greenhouses and to see them destroyed, it really hurts. It’s depressing. But we’re going to come through it. The people of WNY have been wonderful, calling and wishing us the best—from neighbors to organizations like Farm Bureau. And I know that when the time comes they will be there to help us in any way that they can, just as we have always helped others.” But the final word on the future of the Zittel’s farm belongs to George who offers the wisdom of a family elder. “Anytime you face adversity, if you dig in and fight hard you can it manage it and that adversity can become a plus. You restructure, rethink and make adjustments that sometimes lead to a new future. You just have to keep plugging and not give up. You have to think…no… you have to know that it’s going to work” An account to accept donations to help all WNY farmers adversely impacted by the November Storm.

A Special Thanks and gratitude of appreciation to the Evans Police officers, dispatchers, Lynn from Rural Metro Angola and the Evans Center firefighters that responded in near impossible conditions to my emergency Wednesday, November 19th at 6 am. They had to battle blinding snow and 4 feet of snow in my driveway to reach me. I can’t thank you enough. I would also like to offer a special thank you to Bob Beck and Todd Dybdahl for clearing my drive to allow the ambulance to get in. I also don’t want to forget the staff at Lakeshore Hospital for their efficient care. My family and I can not thank you all enough. And also thank you to friends, family and neighbors.

Dave and Ann Phillips are a quiet-spoken, thoughtful couple whose lives are defined by their dairy farms where they breed, raise and milk more than 2,050 dairy cows. Yet for four days during the November storm, the Phillips’ lives took on a whole new meaning as snow destroyed both their property and their livestock, further endangering the lives of Dave and their employees. The Phillips’ story begins on Thursday, November 20th, officially day three of the lake effect blizzard. Ann was at the family’s North Collins farm tending to the 1,450 cows

housed there, while Dave was focused on the 500 head at their Eden farm. He and some employees had been shoveling snow off of building roofs and took a break to collect materials to fortify barns weakened by the weight of the driving snow. It was then, Dave explains, that life on the farm reeled out of control. “I was on my way to North Collins, to get some materials and more help when I got the call. A section of the barn we’d been working on had gone down. I returned immediately and we started carefully pulling debris out of the way, trying not to move anything that would cause more of the barn to collapse.” Dave and his farm crew were aided by neighbors who miraculously showed up within minutes of the disaster. Their help allowed Dave to take one of his employees and move to fortify another barn, this one housing cows. It was only a matter of time before they realized the relentless snowfall was outpacing their efforts. “We heard the first truss crack and snap and knew we had no time to get out. We moved under the main support beam, hoping it would offer protection, and then watched as all the trusses collapsed around us like dominoes. It probably took all of five seconds. We waited a minute to see if anything else was going to fall and when we thought it was safe, we cut open a slice in the out-
side wall and managed to get out, leaving the 25 cows behind, in the debris. At that point I walked away to collect my thoughts as to what we should do next”. What Dave and Ann did next was undertake a threeday odyssey of around-theclock efforts to rescue the cows from the collapsed barn and relocate the remaining 475 cows to other barns and other farms, to prevent further losses. All the while the historic snow storm impeded their every effort. “What saved us were the people who started showing up, without our asking or telling us they were coming,” Dave said. “It was unbelievable how the news spread and people came to help. And what continues to amaze me is that they worked without any concern for their own safety. Neighbors and friends, farmers from Eden, North Collins and Boston, they worked tirelessly in the storm, sifting through the debris." Ann shares her own memories of others who aided in their efforts. "Our vet, Jen Gabel, came that first night and worked for five straight hours. I set up a triage area in another barn and she and I treated the cows as they were rescued. Then on Sunday a crew of Mennonites came from Ontario through the efforts of NYS Ag and Markets. They spent almost three hours shoveling snow off of the roofs. And when I asked
people how we could repay them, they simply said that they didn’t want anything, that we would have done the same for them” By Sunday night, through the exhaustive efforts of many, the Phillips’ farm and livestock were secure. Of the 25 cows trapped in the collapsed barn, 21 were saved. Ultimately four of those were unable to survive. While Dave and Ann acknowledge the rescue as a remarkable triumph, in recalling those that died the emotion of the devastation surfaces. Their voices waver and their eyes fill with tears, but not in waves of selfpity. “We’re so grateful,” Ann said. “We continue to be amazed at how unselfish people were in all the help and support that we received and are still receiving. And we realize how lucky we are that no one got hurt, not even so much as a scratch.” Then with a moment’s pause, Ann softly adds, “We breed and raise every one of our cows. We spend most of our time every day with them. They are under our care and losing even one of them is never easy”.
