“The very instant you stop searching, you start seeing.”

-Tom Hurley This quote hits home right now; it’s something I need to

personally work on, in order to become better. It tends to be on my mind often, which is something I will change.

Have you ever noticed when not fully cognoscente of the next step in life, there is a propensity to worry?

Why is that?

You may say you’re not worried about next steps, but if you find yourself thinking about them consistently, you are in fact, worried. If you’re giving place to the thought of worry, peace is not present.

So why not let go? Even though it may seem difficult. Release the weight of worry, while at the same time increasing your faith.

Not being scared to let things fall into place as they’re supposed to. Because one thing is for sure; there is a plan. A BLESSED plan for your life.

Hospital Bag Checklist

By Katy Wise Contributing Writer

As mentioned last week, we are in the last 3 weeks of pregnancy with baby number three. So all things baby have been on my radar lately.

There seems to be some memory loss concerning the last few weeks of pregnancy and having a newborn.

What I mean by that is that I either completely blocked out how tired I was towards the end of my pregnancies with each of our boys, or our boys are making me more tired while we wait for this little girl to arrive. It's probably the latter of the two, because these little guys are little bouncing balls of energy.

Being at the end of this pregnancy means that it's time to get the hospital bag ready, put the infant car seat in the car, and get the fridge and cupboards stocked with easy meals for Daddy to help feed the boys.

As I started packing my hospital bag this time around, I noticed another area of complete memory loss. I remember packing way too much with our first pregnancy, packing while I was in labor with our second and forgetting important things like our boppy pillow, so I decided we should attempt to find the middle ground this time.

The first thing in the bag was baby's going home outfit. That part was easy. I've only had her outfit picked out since we were about 5 months pregnant.

The boppy pillow is only a few feet away on the rocking chair so nobody has to make any last minute trips this time, and we have a nursing cover, nursing cami, pjs, shampoo, conditioner and hairbrush ready to go.

So we are already about halfway there. There's not too much of a point in packing things that I am

still using, such as my blow dryer or tooth brush.

Although I cannot yet pack everything, here is our master list of things that will need to go with us.

Keep in mind that the hospital does provide quite a few essential items after birth, and there is no point is wasting room in your bag when they already have these things ready for you.

Hospital Bag Checklist Camera (with fresh batteries!)

Cell phone Charger Glasses Contact solution & case Shampoo, conditioner Hairbrush Deodorant Toothbrush Toothpaste Makeup Blow Dryer Nursing Cover Boppy pillow Nursing pads Lanolin Nursing bra and/or camisole Cotton, loose fitting underwear Pajamas Slippers or fl ip flops, socks Comfy clothes (ex. yoga pants and zip up sweater) Going home outfit for mom Going home outfit for baby Carseat Snacks (protein granola bars, almonds) Water bottle Now I have encountered a lot of 'hospital bag essentials' lists on Pinterest, and I have to say that a lot of them go overboard.

Your newborn baby does not need toys. And you really don't need to have gum or toilet paper from home.

Of course, if these items will make you feel more comfortable and you truly believe you will use them, then by all means, pack according to your needs and not someone else's.

Just keep in mind while you are packing that you will have to unpack all of these items while settling into life with a new (sometimes high maintenance) family member.

Here are a couple things to keep in mind while you are packing. The first time around, I had no idea what to pack to wear home.

You will lose some weight directly after birth, but it will take a little longer for your uterus to shrink back down. Everyone's body reacts a little differently to birth, and if this isn't your first, things will go back to normal a little quicker, especially if you are nursing.

But you won't want to pack up your maternity clothes just yet. You will be about the size you were at 5-6 months pregnant, so pack something stretchy and comfortable.

You may also want to pack some items like books or an iPad. I have even seen some people suggest bringing thank-you notes to get done

at the hospital.

But really, at least if you're anything like me, you will be so busy staring at your new little one and visiting with friends and family that you won't even touch those extra activities.

This is also the amount of things you will need for a 24 hour stay. If you have a scheduled c-section, or want to stay the full amount of time then you will need more clothing.

Everything went smoothly for us the last time, and we just wanted to get home to be with our other son.

Don't forget, someone can always run home for more stuff if you forget something, it won't be the end of the world!

By the way, some credit needs to go to my wonderful husband who picked out my hospital bag as a surprise present for me which will be our diaper bag after our little girl arrives. He knows my taste well. Good job honey!

If you are expecting or know someone who is, I hope that this list helps you. Add or subtract whatever you need and make it fit you and your family.

As always thanks for reading, and stay tuned for our nursery tour next week!

Recruitment Open House to be Held at Fredonia Fire Department on April 25

FREDONIA FIRE DEPARTMENT TO PARTICIPATE IN 5TH ANNUAL STATEWIDE “RECRUITNY” WEEKEND TO HELP INCREASE NUMBER OF VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS Contributed Article Fredonia Fire Department

The Fredonia Volunteer Fire Department will open its doors to area residents, so they can learn about what it takes to be a volunteer firefighter in their community as part of the fifth annual RecruitNY statewide initiative. Over the last several years, it has been very tough for many fire departments throughout New York State to recruit and retain volunteers for a variety of reasons. Like most volunteer fire departments, the Fredonia Volunteer Fire Department needs to bolster its emergency responder numbers so it can continue to provide the optimum level of protection for its residents.

As part of RecruitNY, on Saturday, April 25 between 10:00am and 2:00pm, the Fredonia Volunteer Fire Department located at 80 West

Main Street in Fredonia will join volunteer fire departments all across the state at their respective firehouses for a unified recruitment drive.

Not only will RecruitNY be an opportunity to highlight the rewards and responsibilities that come with being a volunteer firefighter, it will also raise public awareness about the need for volunteers.

Throughout the day, the Fredonia Volunteer Fire Department will conduct tours of the station and firefighter apparatus, allow visitors to try on firefighter gear, and provide activities and fascinating informational opportunities throughout the firehouse for visitors. The fire department will discuss the requirements to be a volunteer, as well as conduct demonstrations, answer questions, and let visitors know how to get involved in the fire department.

Last year, more than 500 fire departments in 55 counties across the

state held recruitment open houses.

FASNY is hoping for an even higher turnout this year.

“We’re inviting the community to come on out and join us for this unique recruitment day at our firehouse,” said Fire Chief Kurt Maytum. “This is a great opportunity for our neighbors to observe the exciting tasks of a firefighter. Our current members love what they do; they are everyday heroes who help neighbors in need. We hope our recruitment day will inspire other area residents to join our fire service family.”

The goal of RecruitNY is that the collaborative effort among volunteer fire departments statewide will help increase the number of volunteer firefighters. RecruitNY is one example of FASNY’s key initiatives to recruit and retain volunteers. Over the past couple of years, FASNY has worked exceptionally hard to build and deploy a multi-tiered plan for helping New York State’s more

than 1,700 volunteer fire departments recruit more than 15,000 new volunteer firefighters across the state by utilizing federal SAFER grant funds for programs including the “Fire in You” advertising campaign, FASNY HELP community college tuition reimbursement program, and recruitment training classes.

Established in 2011, RecruitNY is a joint undertaking by the Firemen’s Association of the State of New York (FASNY), the New York State Association of Fire Chiefs (NYSAFC), Association of Fire Districts of New York State, Volunteer Fire Police Association of the State of New York, and County Fire Coordinators Association of the State of New York.

For area residents looking for more information, or to find out if your fire department is participating in RecruitNY, visit www.recruitny.org or contact your local fire department via a non-emergency phone number or its website.

PA State Senator Wiley Visits Grape Discovery Center

Contributed Article Grape Discovery Center

Pennsylvania Senator Sean Wiley visited the Grape Discovery Center in Westfield on Friday, April 10 for a tour and discussion with the Center’s Manager, Christina McKane and several members of the Board of Directors.

Senator Wiley’s District covers the northern half of Erie County, PA, and includes all of the Pennsylvania Concord grape growing region.

Senator Wiley recognized the common interest in agriculture, tourism, business and other aspects of the two counties. He spoke of the need to think of the area as a region, one not hindered by state boarders. He expressed interest in a future meeting with counterparts from the two counties at the Grape Discovery Center to share goals and issues.

Senator Wiley was very impressed with the renovation work and appearance of the Grape Discovery Center and the fact that it utilized a

formerly vacant building.

Discussion about the future of the center and the grape & wine industry were had over local Concord grape juice. The Senator is going to become involved in helping the center to ultimately achieve its vision.

The Grape Discovery Center, located at 8305 West Main Road, Westfield, NY, supports and

promotes the Lake Erie Grape Industry and tourism in the region. Additional information available at www.grapediscoverycenter.com or on Facebook.

Italian American Continues Commitment to Enhance Local Cancer Care at WCA Hospital Contributed Article WCA Hospital

The Italian American (IA) Charity Golf Association recently presented WCA Hospital with a $50,000 check, proceeds from their 2014 golf tournament and other fundraising activities. This was the second installment of the IA’s three-year, $150,000 pledge to enhance local cancer care at WCA Hospital through the purchase of a Fluoroscopic C-Arm. “The Italian-American continues to build upon a firm foundation of success, thanks to the outstanding commitment of our volunteers and the annual investment of our sponsors who are firmly committed to enhancing local cancer care,” said Jack Munella, Jr., Chair of the Italian American. “We are so grateful for the selfless donation of their time and resources, because we know our

families and friends will continue to be well served at WCA Hospital.”

The Fluoroscopic C-Arm is an imaging device used to guide a needle or guide wire while watching it on a live X-ray screen and is especially useful for a variety of diagnostic and interventional procedures. Related to cancer care, the Fluoroscopic C-Arm will be used to guide placement of PICC lines and medical ports for all cancer patients who will be receiving chemotherapy, chemotherapy with concurrent radiation, and/or long-term IV medications, and would also be utilized for additional imaging during cancer-related surgeries.

“On behalf of WCA Hospital and those battling cancer whom we are so privileged to serve, I want to thank the IA for their unwavering dedication,” said Betsy T. Wright, President/CEO of WCA Hospital.

The Weekly Word

PREDICTING FUTURE TEMPTATIONS THROUGH PAST FAILURES

Rev. Timothy Stahlman Family Church Jamestown fcjamestown.org

Experience is the only thing worthwhile about our past.

Experience is a valuable education; a clinic in how to prevent the past from becoming the present. Your

future is completely dependant on your determination not to relive certain events again. There is an old saying that says, "Once bitten, twice shy." The benefit of living through something is knowing how not to repeat it.

Jesus said something very interesting in Matthew 16:23.

He said, "...get behind me Satan; you are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on God's interests, but man's." (NASB) In context Jesus was rebuking Peter. But Jesus was also rebuking Satan because Satan was influencing the mind of Peter. Peter had entered into an unholy alliance with the devil through wrong thinking and Jesus sharply corrected him. In doing so, Jesus not only told

us what Peter was thinking about, but He also told us what the devil was thinking about: The interests of man.

The devil sets his mind upon your interests. He looks upon your life and studies to find what you're interested in that God is not. The devil wants to amplify and feed those interests of yours that are contrary to God's interests. He wants to exploit them and use them to tear you down and the lives of others. If you have ever wondered what the device the devil will use to try to destroy your future, look no further than your failures in the past.

Judas Iscariot; his name is synonymous with betrayal.

His failure is perhaps the worst ever committed in human flesh. He betrayed the

Savior with a kiss of death.

But how did Judas fall into such a temptation? The answer is simple: The devil studied his interests and past failures. Matthew 26:15 tells us that Judas went to the rulers and asked them, "What will you give me if I deliver Jesus to you?" Judas was full of greed. He could be bought with money. But Judas didn't become greedy overnight; he had failed in this area before.

John 12:4-5 records an account where a woman used a very expensive perfume to anoint the feet of Jesus.

Judas at first appears to be very pious in his anger when he said, "This perfume should have been sold and the money given to the poor!" How noble. But the Bible is "a discerner of the

thoughts and the intents of the heart" (Heb 4:12) and reveals his true motives. Verse 5 says, "He said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief..."

Judas had a great interest for worldly gain and the devil noticed. His failures of his past were about to become his future. John 13:2 says, "So it was during supper, Satan having already put the thought of betraying Jesus into the heart of Judas Iscariot..." The devil provided a thought based on Judas' weakness. The suggestion was bait and since Judas had not determined to put away that past failure, he fell into it again never to recover.

Don't let your past become your future!

local cancer diagnosis, treatment, and care.

WCA Hospital’s Cancer Care Program, the only program in the region recognized for cancer care excellence by the American College of Surgeons (ACoS) Commission on Cancer (CoC), is staffed by a team of expert physicians and health care professionals under the medical di-

rection of a board-certified radiation oncologist. The program provides a wide range of cancer care services from routine screenings to the diagnosis and treatment of patients diagnosed with cancer.

The Italian American Charity Golf Association event was the brainstorm of a small group of community-minded men who wanted to raise

money for a local charity. Their dream was to create a golf tournament where one member of each two-man team was of Italian descent and the partner was of another nationality. Charitable gifts to the IA are accepted on-line through PayPal at www.IACharityGolf.com, or can be mailed to: Italian American, PO Box 352, Jamestown, NY 147020352.

Jamestown Community College Performances of 'The Zoo Story'

Contributed Article JCC The Jamestown Community College Uncommoners will present Edward Albee’s one-act play, The Zoo Story, on April 27 in Cutco Theatre on JCC’s Cattaraugus County Campus in Olean and on May 4 in the Weeks Reception Hall on the Jamestown Campus.

Both performances begin at 6 p.m. Donations are accepted at the door.

The production is directed by Robert T. Schlick. The lighting is designed by Scott Barton.

The Zoo Story features two characters, Peter (Derek DeVlieger)

and Jerry (Tyler Stimson), who meet on a park bench in New York City’s Central Park. Peter is a middle-class publishing executive with a wife, two daughters, two cats, and two parakeets.

Jerry is an isolated and disheartened man, desperate to have a meaningful conversation with another human being.

Jerry intrudes on Peter’s peace-

ful state by interrogating him and forcing him to listen to stories about his life, and the reason behind his visit to the zoo.

Of the original production, The New Yorker noted, “Unique…brilliant…a comic nightmare, fantasy of the highest order.” The Villager wrote that it was “the finest play written by an American that can be seen for love or money.”

THE F.I.T. PROJECT, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 If we give place to thoughts of worry or fear, it can be detrimental to this plan. These thoughts place a burden on our bodies and minds, which is not meant to be carried.

When worries are fueled, and held in mind, we become stuck in the “What ifs” and lose sight of reality. We start to plan for tomorrow and look past the blessings in store for us today. That is a disservice to yourself and those around you… Trust me; we all like the happy, joyful version of you more than the worried and fearful version.

Therefore we need to stop searching, and let peace be our guide as we walk down new paths to wide open doorways of opportunity. When this is done we begin to SEE the next step, our answers, and the Perfect Plan for our lives.

This concept applies to fitness in the same way it does life.

The truth of it becomes evident in fitness as we set our sights on the NEXT step, effectively forgetting the one we’re currently on. We get so excited for the NEXT big workout, and forget to attack the existing one with dedication and purpose. And happen to be so enthralled with the image of what we WILL look like, that we stop appreciating how our body looks now.

The premature search for the next step often times becomes a search for failure. As we take time to examine, evaluate, and appreciate the step on which we currently stand, blinders are taken off, and our eyes opened to the image of what actually matters.

So I ask you to take a step back. BREATHE. RELAX. Calm your thoughts. Stop searching for the new you. SEE who you are NOW. That’s right; SEE the amazing, unique individual looking back at you in the mirror.

When you live looking through this lens, YOU ARE “F.I.T.” You are at peace, and will look down to see yourself standing upon that coveted next step.

Fitness Can Be Greater.

VACCINATING CHILDREN, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 you are putting your child at risk for get-ting measles, chicken pox, whooping cough, a deadly form of flu and many other childhood dis-eases. These diseases are serious and I personally cannot imagine willingly placing my child at risk for them.

Can you imagine your child getting polio and having to live in an iron lung? I don’t even know what an iron lung is but sounds so scary and unimaginable. Can you imagine taking your child to the emergency room because s/he cannot breathe due to whooping cough? Or having your child admitted to the hospital because s/he has pneumonia caused from measles or chicken pox? These outcomes can be prevented.

I do realize there is another side and parents have valid concerns.

You may be concerned that vaccines are not safe. They are. The United States has the safest, most effective vaccine supply in its history.

You may be concerned vaccines cause autism. They don’t. There was one study many years ago that connected vaccines with autism. That study has been rescinded by the medical community because it was not a valid scientific study. We still don’t have much explanation for autism so it makes you wonder, right? However, there have been many large-scale, widely accepted studies that prove no link between shots and autism.

You may be concerned about side effects. They do exist. They are very rarely severe. The most common side effects are very mild, such as pain or swelling at the injection site. Serious side ef-fects following vaccination, such as severe allergic reaction, are very rare and doctors are trained to deal with them.

You may be concerned that the vaccines are an overload. I was. My daughter has always been on the lower end for weight for her age and so I was concerned she may not be able to handle all the doses at once. My doctor assured me even if she receives several vaccinations in one day, the child can handle it because it is a similar amount to the everyday germs they come into contact.

You may question some of the vaccines like chicken pox. Why not just let your child get it natu-rally? It is true that in many cases, children experience a mild case of chickenpox. But other kids may develop pneumonia. Before vaccine was available, about 50 kids died every year from chickenpox, and about 1 in 500 kids who got chickenpox was hospitalized. Personally speaking, when I was a kid I got chicken pox very young and still have pox scars on my face - believe me I do not want my daughter to have scars and if my Mom could have protected me from that she would have!

Protect your child now. The Chautauqua County health department lists these immunizations as critical for children.

• Diphtheria, Tetanus (lockjaw), Pertussis (whooping cough) (DTaP) • Haemophilus influenza B (Hib) • Hepatitis A • Hepatitis B • Influenza • Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR) • Pneumococcal disease • Polio • Rotovirus • Varicella (chicken pox).

URODYNAMIC TESTING Prior to determining if this surgical procedure is the right for a patient, Lake Erie Medical Services performs minimally invasive Urodynamic Testing for bladder dysfunction at our Fredonia Office . Urodynamic Testing is a sophisticated computer-based procedure done right in the office to help diagnose problems with voiding (urination) and/or urinary incontinence (involuntary loss of urine). The test takes only about an hour, and provides the team with useful information for planning the best course of treatment for each individual woman.

INVESTING IN NEW PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS FOR OUR COMMUNITY Cutting edge medicine with the latest technology is being performed in our own backyard at Brooks Memorial Hospital. Our very own community hospital is attracting more and more physicians who want to bring their expertise to a community they believe in, and want to be a part of.

Dr. Tawsufe Majid MD, FACOG and his wife, Saima Ashraf MD, also of Lake Erie Medical Services, PC, are two of this growing group of hiqh quality, cutting edge healthcare providers in our area.

Hear from Roxanne (61 years old) and her experience as well: “I like Dr. Majid very much. I am very confident in him, and his wife (Saima Ashraf MD, also of Lake Erie Medical Services, PC). I looked into this procedure before, and my primary care physician mentioned Dr. Majid, so I looked him up online. I’m really comfortable around him. I have 2 daughters, and 1 of them came with me to meet with Dr. Majid. He drew diagrams for me, never rushed me through the process, and wanted me to know all of my options before I decided on anything. Dr. Majid’s office staff has called after my procedure to check in on me. I like his nurse, Nicki, very much too. It’s a friendly place there (Lake Erie Medical Services, PC).

I’m happy about the whole thing. Dr. Majid is reassuring and I trusted him, and was very pleased with him. I was also pleased at the nurses, maternity staff…the dietician was also very pleasant, at Brooks Memorial Hospital… at how they all worked together. All unique individuals, all working for a common goal.”

In closing, we’d be remiss not to mention Dr. Majid’s track record of having no infections post-surgery and no re-admissions after surgery. The level of expertise, and exceptional care provided by Dr. Majid and his team, truly is …world class care.

sometimes opens the tailgate. This car tech feature is a good idea in theory but not quite ready yet in practice.

Drowsy-Driver Detection We like the idea of a drowsy-driver detection system, which monitors your heart rate, your breathing and your eye movements to let you know if you’re simply too tired to be driving a car. Unfortunately, most drowsy-driver detection systems don’t have anywhere near slow down, it always this level of capability. seems like the music Instead, they’re usuis too faint, but you ally based on how long can’t turn it back up to you’ve been driving, compensate or it will and they rarely factor become even louder in breaks and quick when you start moving stops that could include again.

So what’s the keys are in your pocket, problem? Most of these so you swipe your foot systems will only steer under the car’s bumper the car once, and they to automatically open rarely send the vehicle the tailgate. Here’s how on a straight path. it actually works: You What happens is that stand in a parking lot you begin to drift out of with grocery bags in your lane, either due to each arm, swiping at fatigue or distraction, an invisible force under and then the system your car that only

kicks in and sends you in the other direction, but now your car is pointed too far toward the other side! Unfortunately, you’ll have to take over at this point, as few lane-keeping assist systems will steer more than once at a time. As a result, we strongly prefer autonomous steering systems, which can monitor lane lines on both sides to steer you in the right direction.

Massaging Seats The idea of a massaging seat is a fantastic one: You’re driving down the road and you want to relax, so you set your luxury car’s seat to the massage function. But there’s a problem: We’ve never had a single massage from a car’s seat that felt even remotely comfortable. Instead, it feels like exactly what it is: devices inside the seat that move in a wide variety of motions, therefore producing the most synthetic-feeling massage we could possibly imagine. We don’t think this technology is ready for the real world, and we wonder if it ever will be.

Quad-Zone Automatic Climate Control Here’s how quad-zone (or 4-zone) climate control is supposed to work: Each occupant of the vehicle sets an individual climate-control switch to a desired temperature. Air blows out

of the climate-control system to automatically reach the desired temperature in each zone, but there’s a problem: A car is not like a house, and the zones are hardly self-contained.

In fact, they’re right next to one another.

The result is, if front passengers want hot air and rear passengers want cold air, the zones are bound to mix, and that means nobody will end up happy.

Voice Control Despite repeated attempts by dozens of automakers over the last decade, voice control just doesn’t work properly. In a perfect world, the system is supposed to allow you to say a few words (“Call Bob”) and it will perfectly execute your command so you never have to take your hands off the steering wheel.

Instead, what happens is the system asks “Call Todd?”, and you must scold it. “No,” you say.

“Call Bob!” The system replies with an inevitable “calling Todd!”, and you’re reminded why voice control still isn’t worth the extra money.

24 THIS GREAT COUNTY

CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, APRIL 17, 2015

Forestville Western New York has so many great places to see and things to do. Each city, village and town has a story, and we’ve set out to tell that story. We’ll go through the county, place by place, for the next few months. Check back every week for the next edition of “This Great County."

Star Special Feature

Early Settlement The first settlers to break the ancient untouched forest of northeastern Chautauqua County were the Tupper brothers in 1805. In 1808 Jehial Moore settled at Walnut Creek. He is said to have built the first house in Walnut Falls, and in 1809 he moved his family in and also built the first sawmill below the Falls, and the first gristmill in 1810 : he later moved to Ohio. The community began in 1808 as “Walnut Falls.” Also known as “Moore’s Hills,” the name was changed to “Forestville” in 1820. A Correspondent with the New York State Gazetteer writes on, “Oct. 20, 1822, that the name of the Post-Office has been changed, from Hanover, to Kensington P. O. -In general, there is a very manifest propriety, in towns having but one Post-Office, that it should bear the name of the town. There is but 1 Hanover in this state, and I cannot conceive why this name has been changed. There is a small but flourishing little Village, called Forestville, situated on Walnut Creek, 5 miles from its mouth, containing 35 to 40 houses. ” It is very apparent that historic documents have some discrepancy of dates and names.

The Village of Forestville was finally incorporated in 1848. When the Holland Land Company made their original survey of Hanover, it was an almost unbroken wilderness. Great hemlocks, black walnut, white wood, elm, beech and other timber making up these great forests.

Forestville, after the building of the saw mill and grist mill in 1809 and 1810, was the center of much business activity and early on had a large trade in pot and pearl ashes. The Holland Land Company laid out a road from Fredonia through Forestville and Nashville(Webster Settlement).

Nashville being a small community due east of Forestville at the County line. This road became the road drovers took in driving their cattle, hogs and sheep to New York and Philadelphia. Taverns were about as frequent there as on the main road along the lake. Forestville received early a number of enterprising men who materially assisted in building it up with shops and commercial buildings. After the Erie and Lake Shore railroads came in 1851-52, the whole character of the town was changed. The road from Fredo-

nia to Nashville ceased to be used by drovers but commerce soared with the products coming by train.

Forestville Baptist Church, was founded in 1817.

Building now being used was dedicated in 1861 after the first one burnt down.

Forestville had a disastrous fire in 1870, which burned most of its business places and checked its growth for years.

The Forestville Volunteer Fire Department was organized in 1895 and is a central part of the community today. Providing state of the art fire protection and emergency services to a large rural district.

Masonry in Forestville Hanover Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons, was instituted at Forestville, February 5, 1824. Charter members: Luther Thwing, worshipful master; Ezra Puffer, senior warden; Seth Snow, junior warden; Albert H. Camp, secretary;. Discontinued in 1828; after the Morgan Affair it was rechartered in 1849. Masonry has flourished here since then with R.W. Carl Kerr currently presiding as Master of the Lodge.

Famous Forestvillians Judge Daniel Sherman was the director of the

U.S. Agency on New York Indians. His work among and responsibility with the Seneca people was much admired.

The divided highway in downtown Forestville, with the green space it provides between the avenues, has always impressed me. It gives you the impression of a well thought out place to live and enjoy.

TRACK AND FIELD MEET, TENNIS MATCH MAKE FOR GREAT SPORTS AFTERNOON

By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

The sports season felt like it was in full swing on Tuesday afternoon at Dunkirk High School — and it wasn’t just the beautiful weather.

The Marauders tennis team played host to the Westfield Wolverines while down at the bottom of the hill, Fredonia and Dunkirk renewed their rivalry on the track.

On the courts, Dunkirk won the final two points of the match to secure a 3-2 win over Westfield.

In first singles, Dunkirk’s Peter Kubera won an epic match against Judah Herr, 0-6, 7-6, 6-4. But Westfield’s Josh McCord took second singles over Brandon Katta, 6-4, 6-3.

Alex Jimenez and Teddy Cheverez dropped their first set 4-6 to Westfield’s Emma Mason and Brooke Bennett, but bounced back to win the next two, 7-5, 6-3. Meanwhile, in second doubles, Josh Saye and Chris Michalski gave Dunkirk its third point with a 6-2, 6-3 win over Meghan Bodemiller and Jason Babcock.

Elsewhere in Tuesday’s tennis action, Fredonia picked up a 3-2 decision while visiting the Panama Panthers.

Panama’s Jack Payne dominated first singles with a 6-1, 6-0 win over Jacob Thompson. Wyatt Jackson gave the Panthers a second point with a 6-1, 5-7, 6-1 win over Fredonia’s Matt Burr.

But the other three matches were all Fredonia.

Neil Gens downed Mike Rensel, 6-0, 6-2, in third singles.

Josh Thompson and Mike Johnson survived Quinn Payne and John Mayr, 6-2, 6-2, in first singles before Alex Brown and Nick Piper breezed past Panama’s second doubles team of Nathan Radka and Elliot Jackson, 6-2, 6-0.

On the track, it was a memorable day for the Marauders as both the boys and the girls were able to ring the bell after wins over rival Fredonia.

The Lady Marauders were 83.5-56 winners, but the highlight of the meet was definitely freshman Emilee Hanlon.

The Masters Is One Of Sports' Best

MASTERS ONE OF SPORTS' BEST EVENTS, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 26

The tournament itself is reason enough to be excited. It’s one of the top events in all of sports. The Super Bowl surely gets more viewers, but it’s just one game featuring just two teams.

The Masters, however, features the 98 best golfers in the world. It’s four days of mind-boggling skills on display. The Masters is also better than any other PGA Tour major because it rewards good shots. The scores are always low. While some golf purists might not like that, it definitely keeps the casual fan interested. It’s why the Masters is better than say, the U.S. Open, where a +3 can win the whole tournament.

No thanks.

So yes, the Masters is always exciting. But what made this particular Masters exciting was the dawning of a new age in American golf right before our very eyes. Jordan Spieth was a 20-year old Masters rookie last year and came in second to fellow American Bubba Watson.

This year, an even hungrier 21year old Spieth dominated the field from start to finish. His opening rounds of 64 and 66 on Thursday and Friday, respectively, were truly something special.

While Irishman Rory McIlroy is probably still the consensus best golfer in the world (and he did finish fourth in this Masters), Spieth finally gave American golf fans a young stud to cheer for. The McIlroy-Speith rivalry, if we’re lucky, will be one that rivals the best in golf’s history. It might be early, but how awesome would it be to have another Arnold Palmer-Jack Nicklaus or (going further back) Byron Nelson-Ben Hogan rivalry?

And how much fun was Phil Mickelson?

“Lefty” kept the pressure on Spieth throughout the final two days of the tournament. The wily veteran - clearly never considered himself out of the running. His score of 14-under is probably good enough to win the Masters most years. The guy has a short game like no one else.

Admittedly, I love playing golf.

This is the start of my fourth season of playing golf and I am totally addicted. But I’m still not completely sold on watching golf. First off, it just makes me want to play. I see the green grass and the beautiful courses and I just want to go out and play. That doesn’t happen with other sports. I watch a lot of baseball, but it doesn’t make me want to go grab my glove.

round of the season? I’ll take that any day. After a double-bogey on No. 6, I actually closed with three consecutive bogeys as well. That’s golfing really well for me. I was pleased.

My final score of 45 is substantially better than I ever would have hoped. Though this happened last season as well. My first round wasn’t awful but then my second and third rounds were just trash.

Keep your fingers crossed that I suddenly got good, not lucky, over the offseason.

Pinehurst was wet, no doubt, but the Swansons were out there picking up sticks, etc. the whole time we were golfing. They said they’ll have the drainage issues on Nos. 5 & 8 fixed in the next week or so. These are guys that truly care about their golf course. I have no doubt it’ll be in tip-top shape in no time. In fact, I’m sure in the week since I played there they’ve made tons of progress on the course.

So here’s the tip I learned from watching the Masters (and someone please tell me if I’m way off base here): I believe that my feet were too far apart while addressing the ball, both off the tee and with irons. I was told to just get into a comfortable stance when I first started playing golf, so I’m sure I blindly went into a baseball stance. It took me a while to stop lifting that front foot, but once I did I figured I had gotten baseball out of my swing. I never considered my stance. But with my feet too far apart, I couldn’t turn my hips on my backswing. I already noticed a drastic increase in iron distance with that one simple change. Yes, everything sped up and I was pulling balls to the left, but that should be an easy fix.

As always, golf is great. Go get some.

Knight Of The Card Table Reviews...

GHOST STORIES: USE KUNG FU TO BATTLE GHOSTS. WHAT'S NOT TO LIKE? There’s a 60-minute play time on the box, but that could be much lower depending on card draw, etc.

INTRODUCTION In Ghost Stories, players take on the role of Taoist monks that are working together to protect a village from Sir Melvin an incarnation of the Pistachio Knight of the Card Table lord of hell and his legions of ghosts. While that might sound dark, I usually just explain the Cooperative games game as using kung fu continue to grow in to battle ghosts. That popularity. Players makes the game sound work together to beat fun and cartoony. It’s the game itself. Games a cooperative game, so like Pandemic made players either all win or the genre popular, but lose together. there are many, many wonderful cooperative MECHANICS games released every Setup is modular for year.

There are center tile of the grid, ready to defend the vilrules for 1-4 players and recommended ages lage. To create the deck of ghost cards, ranare 12 and up. That’s domly select one of the probably a good age recommendation as my many incarnations of 12-year old nephew got Wu-Feng and put that into the game while my card exactly 10 cards from the bottom on the 9-year old niece found deck. To win the game, the game a little long.

players must defeat that single card. That’s it.

That’s the only way to win.

On a player’s turn, they first must activate the ghosts. Some ghosts have actions that occur every turn. Then a new ghost is drawn from the top of the deck. A red ghost is placed on the red board. A green ghost is placed on the green board and so on.

A black ghost is placed on the active player’s board.

Each ghost has a difficulty in the upper left of the card that shows what’s needed to exorcise said ghost. It could need two blues, three greens, etc. On a player’s turn they can either attempt an exorcism or ask a villager for aid.

If exorcising, a player must roll three dice and match the colors on the card. There are colored tokens that are acquired in various ways that can be used to make up the difference, if needed.

This basically continues until players either get through the deck to Wu-Feng or the players lose. There are multiple ways to lose. If three village tiles get haunted, the deck runs out or if all the priests are dead, the players lose. It’s not unusual to lose.

FINAL THOUGHTS This game is difficult, no doubt. Almost from the first turn, the game feels like a hopeless struggle. If you’re easily stressed out, this game

might not be for you.

But when you win, boy oh boy is it rewarding.

Players absolutely have to work together to win Ghost Stories. There’s nothing semi-cooperative here.

The artwork is top notch. Pierro is a world famous board game artist and his full set of skills is on display in Ghost Stories. There are a handful of cards that are actually a little creepy, which is another reason why this game might be more suitable for 12 and up rather than younger children.

There’s a ton of luck involved in this game, but part of the game is trying to mitigate the luck of a dice roll. If you need three greens and have no green tokens, well, you’re probably not going to attempt to kill that green ghost.

Not knowing which incarnation (which each have different powers and colors) is in the deck really creates some suspense as you get near that special 10th card.

And sometimes you happen to beat the odds and roll exactly what you need. Those standup-and-cheer moments happen more in Ghost Stories than in any other cooperative game that I own.

If it’s not obvious, I love this game. It sat unplayed on the shelf for a long time after the first couple of plays because it really requires exactly four players (though there are rules for other numbers). But then I had the idea for my wife and I to each take control of two monks.

That way we got the full complement of four monks. In fact, when I

played with my niece and nephew, we played three players and then had a fourth monk that we collaborated on for its move. The game is just too much fun to sit on the shelf.

TO OWN OR NOT TO OWN? I think I’ve been pretty clear that this game is great, but there are also reasons why you shouldn’t buy this game.

For the most part, though, everyone will like this game. Yes it’s stressful, difficult and the artwork is borderline scary, but there’s no denying the fun that comes in this box.

There are two expansions that I don’t own, but have gotten great reviews by trusted reviewers, so there’s plenty to expand on if that’s your prerogative.

BUSY SPORTS DAY IN DUNKIRK, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 27 Not only did Hanlon win four events, but she broke two school records and qualified for Sectionals in all four events.

Hanlon’s time of 12.5 seconds in the 100 meters broke a record previously shared

by Melissa Thomas and Samia Toomer at 12.7 seconds. In the high jump — an event she went to States for in indoor track — Hanlon cleared 5-feet, 3-inches to best the record of 5-2 set in 1999 by All-American Kent State athlete Justina Barone. She also took first place in the 200 meters (26.9 seconds) and anchored Dunkirk’s 4x100 relay that finished in 53.1 seconds. Not a bad day at the office.

Of course, the Dunkirk girls had no shortage of elite performances.

Savia Moreland won three events and qualified for Sectionals in two of them. She won both the 100m hurdles (17.1 seconds) and 400m hurdles (1:16) while also running a leg of the winning 4x100 relay.

Faith Rivera qualified for Sectionals in two events while grabbing a pair of first-place finishes. She won the 400m (1:06) and anchored the 4x400 meter relay. She qualified for Sectionals in the high jump after clearing 4-10, but finished second to teammate Hanlon.

Amancia Viera (shot put, 27-9), Kate Michalski (pole vault, 7-0) and Sam Hemenger (triple jump, 300) each earned individual wins for the Lady Marauders.

“The biggest struggle for coaches early in the season is to get the athletes to buy in to the program and the work being asked of them,” Dunkirk coach A.J. Burnside said. “Today’s meet shows how much our athletes believe in themselves. To have the times and distances that we did this early in the season is a direct result of our girls not accepting anything but their best work in practice for the first month of the season.

This was one league meet

that we won; in a full season, it’s nothing special. But for us to come out today and show what we’re capable of, it’s the foundation for something great that I can’t wait to be a part of.”

For Fredonia, Lauren Reyda ran to a first-place finish in the 1,500 meters (5:26.3) while holding off teammate Emily Brown (5:29.3). Reyda added wins in the 800 meters (2:36.7) and the 3,000 (11:49) for a nice three-win afternoon for the Lady Hillbillie. Brown was once again just behind Reyda in the 3,000 meters (11:55.6).

Alison Gugino won the long jump (14-0) and Emily MacKinnon took first in the discus (77-1) for Fredonia.

In the boys meet, Dunkirk came out on top, 97-40.

Jose Morales took first place in both the 100 meters (10.9) and 200 meters (22.9) for the Marauders. Morales was also part of Dunkirk’s winning 4x100 meter relay.

Fredonia’s Matt McCarthy came in second to Morales

in both the 100 and 200, but was able to break through for a first-place finish in the high jump, clearing 5-8.

Dunkirk’s Ethan Francis ran

an impressive 2:06 in the 800 meters to claim the win.

Tim Cerrie cleared 11-0 in the pole vault, good for another Dunkirk win.

Former Sabres Relishing Chance With Jets

Contributed Article

Associated Press

WINNIPEG, Manitoba (AP) -- Despite living in the moment, Drew Stafford and Tyler Myers haven't forgotten the past.

The former Buffalo Sabres players remain grateful for their trade to the Winnipeg Jets and the opportunity to be in the playoffs instead of with a Sabres team that's rebuilding. ''There were some pretty dark days in Buffalo, where we really didn't know how things were going to work out,'' Stafford said after Tuesday's practice. ''You just had to do your best to make sure you were showing up every day and putting the work in and doing your job.''

That's what he and Myers did, and then on Feb. 11 they were traded to Winnipeg as part of the deal that sent Evander Kane and Zach Bogosian to Buffalo.

Now they and their new teammates are taking on the Anaheim Ducks on Thursday in Game 1 of their Stanley Cup first-round series. ''I was fortunate enough to, I guess, play well enough to get some looks and I got picked up by a team that's in a playoff hunt,'' Stafford said. ''That's why you play the game, you want a chance at winning the Cup. Being in the hunt, and being in the mix for the playoffs again, it was definitely refreshing.''

The nine-year veteran has become a valuable addition to the Jets. He has nine goals and 10 assists in 26 games with his new team, including a career-high nine-game points streak that began in mid-March. He had nine goals and 10 assists in 50 games with Buffalo.

Myers has used his 6-foot-8 frame and veteran smarts to bolster Winnipeg's blue line, contributing three goals and 12 assists in 24 games. ''When I first got to the Jets, it was a team that was on an upswing,'' said Myers, who was Buffalo's first-round pick (12th overall) in the 2008 draft. ''I was very fortunate to be able to come in and help as much as I could to make a playoff spot.

Looking back, I'm really happy to be part of this team.''

He and Stafford experienced playoff hockey with Buffalo in back-to-back seasons from 2009-11.

Stafford was also with the Sabres for the 2007 playoffs.

Stafford has stayed in contact with some of his former Buffalo teammates, who finished last

in the NHL and then saw coach Ted Nolan fired. ''The guys that I have kept in touch with, obviously they wish me the best of luck,'' Stafford said. ''I've talked to the other guys that have gotten traded as well, a couple of them are on playoff teams now, so I've wished them well.''

Stafford and Myers are among 14 players on the Jets roster who've suited up for a total of 301 playoff games.

One player whose name isn't on the list is veteran center Bryan Little. ''You realize how tough it is to make it in the playoffs,'' said Little, whose career began in 200708 with the former Atlanta Thrashers. ''I've definitely been through a lot of ups and downs. Been close a few times, but I don't think the teams I've played on ever had that extra push

to get in until this year.''

Rookie center Adam Lowry knows he's fortunate. ''There've been some guys that have put a lot of time in this league and they've been pretty productive players and this is going to be their first chance at the playoffs so you realize it's pretty tough to get here,'' Lowry said. ''(You want to) kind of just enjoy this moment, take it in. With it being Winnipeg's first time back in the Stanley Cup playoffs (since 1996), the whole city's excited and they're behind us. ''We're all excited in here. I think it's going to be a special time for this group.''

The Jets put less than 1,000 tickets for next week's two home games on sale Tuesday morning and sold out in less than five minutes.

Jimmie Johnson Gets 5th Sprint Cup Win At Texas

By Stephen Hawkins AP Sports Writer

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) -- Jimmie Johnson was still chasing Jamie McMurray and Kevin Harvick, trying to get back in front as the laps wound down at Texas Motor Speedway.

Then Johnson got the break that led to his fi fth NASCAR Sprint Cup victory at the track. ''They slid up high through (Turns) 3 and 4 and left the bottom wide open for me,'' Johnson said. ''I thought I'd at least get (Harvick). When I came off of Turn 4, I was alongside (McMurray).''

Johnson passed both of them, regaining the lead for good with 14 laps left.

He held off Harvick and Hendrick Motorsports teammate Dale Earnhardt Jr. for his second victory this season - and 72nd of his career.

Harvick, the series points leader who has also won twice this season, had been trying to get around McMurray, who had taken only two tires for the final restart on lap 314 of 334.

Then Harvick went high and scraped the wall with about three laps to go. ''I looked up in the mirror and I saw smoke and sparks,'' Johnson said. ''Just lost a little bit of time and tried to make too much of it up in too many chunks, and about spun out and got in the fence trying to make up ground,'' Harvick said. ''All in all, it was a lot of fun. Fun to race that way.''

Johnson led nine times for 128 laps. He also won in November at Texas, where all four of his previous wins had been in fall races.

The runner-up finish for Harvick comes after he was eighth in Martinsville

in the last Cup race two weeks ago. That ended his run of eight consecutive races finishing first or second, the longest such stretch since Richard Petty did it 11 times in a row in 1975. ''I'm not disappointed at all, racing for wins is what we're here to do,'' said Harvick, who led 96 of the 334 laps but is without a win in 25 Texas starts. ''Nothing at all to hang your head about.''

This was the fi fth time in Johnson's last seven starts at the 1 1/2-mile, highbanked track that he led at least 100 laps. This is fourth win in the span that also includes a runner-up finish in the spring race three years ago.

Earnhardt, with his third third-place finish this season, gave Chevrolet a sweep of the top three spots in the first Sprint Cup night race this season.

But he was disappointed with one move that he didn't make that could have made the night even better. ''I had Harvick cleared off two. I had passed him on the bottom,'' Earnhardt said. ''I still had Jimmie behind me at that point, and I should have pulled up in front of Kevin and made it a little more difficult on him. We weren't as good as the 48 ( Johnson) or the 4 (Harvick) early in the race, but we definitely improved it.''

Team Penske rounded out the top five in a pair of Fords, with defending race winner Joey Logano finishing fourth and Brad Keselowski fi fth.

Harvick, Logano and Martin Truex Jr., who finished ninth, are the only drivers to finish in the top 10 in all seven races this season. Keselowski got his sixth top 10.

Jeff Gordon, who in his last full season, is the only driver who has started all 29 Sprint Cup races at Texas since the track opened in 1997. He finished seventh after starting 12th.
