Local Legacy “Legends of The ChauTauqua Lake Region” now on BooksheLves By Michael Dean Star Contributing Writer
Authors Kathleen Crocker and Jane Currie continue their efforts in celebrating Chautauqua Lakes’s rich history with the publication of their latest book “Legendary Locals of The Chautauqua Lake Region.” Similar to their previous four publications through the Arcadia Publishing company, in the Images of America series on Jamestown, the Chautauqua Lake Region, Westfield, and Chautauqua Institution, the Legendary Locals edition digs deep into preserving Chautauqua County’s past and its famous occupants. This book encapsulates all categories of Chautauqua’s most notable residents, such as Gunnard F. Kindberg, a Jamestown police officer who touched many local lives, to Justice Robert H. Jackson, an American prosecutor at the Nuremburg Trials, to Natalie Merchant, the one-time lead singer and primary lyricist for Jamestown’s 10,000 Maniacs. The areas featured in this piece include Mayville The Lake’s Upper East Side, Bemus Point, The Lakes Lover East Side, Jamestown, The Lakes Lower West Side, The Lakes Upper West Side, and finally the Chautauqua Institution. In an interview with one of the
book’s authors, Jane Currie, expounded upon how difficult a task it was to reduce many of Chautauqua County’s acknowledged locals into just one work. “It is heartbreaking to not have the space, and we had to moreor-less pick and choose indi-
and did her best to give a concise look at some of the Chautauqua Lake Region’s most exceptional residents within the past 200 years. Although some of the images in the book are nearly 200 years old, they stand out as being compellingly clear and resolute. The descriptions of Chautauqua Lake’s locals are honest and are researched in-depth. Many descriptions feature first-account quotes that read like a story within a story. Currie went on to say that this work was far more meticulous and consuming than the previous four books she and Crocker co-authored. “It took nearly two years to complete, and the other four books took roughly six months each.” When asked why “Legendary Locals” was so much more extraordinary and time-consuming than the Images of America, she elaborated that this series is much more personal than the other. “You have to realize you are dealing with human beings,” which she adds made the research much more difficult. “We were looking for accuracy, and with that comes a tremendous amount of resources. viduals who contributed to the We took advantage of the interChautauqua Lake Region.” Cur- net, the Jamestown Post-Journal, rie went on to say “There are just the Robert H.

Vince Horrigan
Chautauqua County Legislator, District 17, Vince Horrigan (R) from Bemus Point NY has announced his candidacy for Chautauqua County Executive. The announcement came at a Wednesday evening
Chautauqua County Republican reception at Shorewood Country Club in Dunkirk NY. Horrigan explained his decision with the following remarks. “ Just over 57 years ago, I fell in love with a place called Chautauqua. As a young kid from Ohio, I learned to swim here, play little league here, catch a fish here, and I learned to fly here. When I married my high school sweetheart, we spent our honeymoon here. Together with my wife and our two kids we traveled the world while I had the privilege to serve our Nation in the United States Air Force for 27 years. At my retirement ceremony at RAF Mildenhall, United Kingdom, I
enthusiastic gardeners. Its purpose is to promote the use, study and enjoyment of flowers and herbs for its members and the public. Projects have included beautifying the village part, gazebo, veteran’s’ memorial boat launch and adding seven “welcome” signs to the village entrances. At its monthly meetings, the club has educational speakers, demonstrations, garden craft projects, as it discusses and plans planting projects for all the seasons. The members take pride in the community and want visitors and residents to enjoy the charming area of Silver Creek’s park and gazebo. The club has two fundraising efforts during the year.
Monies raised enable it to purchase flowers, soil, mulch, pot, planters, seeds and Christmas decorations. To kick off the season, the first event is the “garden fair,” which is held in the park/gazebo area on Main Street and Central Ave. on May 18 from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. For sale will be plants, trees, annuals perennials, herbs and houseplants. To keep the children busy, there will be seed planting, rock painting and other activities. There is also an auction, with many gardening items, gift certificates, including theatre tickets, and an overnight stay with dinner. Speakers include Ken Turnbull who will talk about hydrangea care and Marge Vogel from Lockwood Nursery who will

Over my years of public service in village and County government, I have understood that so many of us come from different viewpoints but we all want the best for those who live in Chautauqua County. However, we must have a vision for the future to determine how we will solve the challenges that we face in our individual economic circumstances and demographics. Our collective success will require building consensus around efficiency, productivity, and economic development. I am truly humbled by the outpouring of support for my decision, and emboldened by your commitment to our cause, and ready to lead a winning team
to build a vibrant County where opportunity abounds for each and every one of us to achieve success by accomplishing our personal best. Ladies and gentlemen, We owe a great deal of gratitude to Greg Edwards for his incredible 8 years of service to our County and for the support of his family. I am also grateful to my wife Barbara who has once again postponed our retirement plans and lends her strong support to my candidacy. With your support, I am eager to embark upon a mission to lead our County into a vibrant community where opportunity abounds for all our citizens”.

told my fellow airman that I was returning to a place I love, called Chautauqua County. That was 15 years ago this month but seems like yesterday to me. While I was blessed to experience all that is wonderful in this great County, I also gained the opportunity to experience the challenges and struggles which our citizens face in times of hardship. My time as Director of the Red Cross in Chautauqua County shined the light on a resilient people who suffered through house fires, storms, and floods. And I witnessed the generosity and compassion of our wonderful citizens who came to their aid as volunteers and financial donors.

Chautauqua County Humane Society Pet of the Week
Pets of the Week
This week we are featuring “Max” and “Misty.” They are brother and sister kitties that have been at the shelter for over one year. They are shy at first and would need some time to adjust to their new home. We would like to place them together as they are best friends. They do well with other cats and lived with a dog in their original home. Because they need a patient family and have been with us so long, we have waived their adoption fee, you just have to meet adoption criteria. If you think you could open your heart and home to these two deserving furbabies, please stop by the Strunk Road Adoption Center and meet them. They deserve a lifelong, loving family and a second chance for a great life.

Rev. Tim Stahlman Family Church Jamestown thenewfamilychurch.com
Predicting Future Temptations through Past Failures 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 five 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!

Many Americans are in the process of reassessing their spending patterns, and boomers and seniors are no exception. Seventy-three percent of adults over age 50 started saving more or cutting back on spending last year, compared to 2010, according to a November 2011 report by the AARP. In many cases, the new spirit of frugality is not necessarily born out of financial necessity, but also out of a desire to simplify life, avoid excessive consumption and focus on what’s really important – family, friends and community. If you’re an adult over 50, Dave Bollman, Executive Chef at Lutheran, explains to maybe you’re exploring Diana Pillittieri, Social Worker at Hultquist Place Assisted Living, the health benefits of plant based foods on a the hidden treasures of person’s overall well being.

You’re never locked into a plan that forces you to pay for more service than you need, and complementary usage alerts mean you don’t have to worry about accidentally exceeding your maximum allowance. Flexible family plans where couples and families share minutes can save an additional $20 to $30 per month. Reassess your gift-giving habits. If you’ve ever found yourself rushing to the mall to buy a last-minute gift for a loved one’s birthday, chances are you’ve spent more than you originally planned, settled for something you suspected the recipient might end up exchanging, or avoided the decision by purchasing a safe but impersonal gift card. However, most of us don’t really need more things. Instead, consider giving your loved ones the gift of a shared experience. If your grandson loves animals, take him to the zoo. If your sister is into jazz, take her out for an evening at a jazz club. Of course, you might not end up spending less money this way – experiences come in all price ranges – so do keep your budget in mind. The point is that instead of wasting money on something that might just sit in the garage for years, you’ll enjoy a meaningful experience together. And that’s what quality of life is all about.

Art of the Line exhibit in Final days Contributed Article Roger Tory Peterson Institute
Roger Tory Peterson: The Art of the Line is an exhibit of never-before-seen black and white illustrations by Roger Tory Peterson. Special one-hour tours are available Friday May 3 at 3 p.m. and Friday May 10 at 3 p.m. The last day to see this show is Sunday, May 12, when there will be free admission for moms. The Art of the Line Jamestown’s Roger Tory Peterson (1908-1996) was best known for his landmark book, “A Field Guide to the Birds,” which started his career as a field guide author, illustrator and editor that continues to inform and inspire to know and love nature firsthand. Bird book illustrations were only part of Peterson’s life as a nature educator. Often the most practical way for Peterson to make his point was with India ink and crow-quill pen. This exhibition celebrates his mastery of this age-old medium with a display of over 50 rare originals from the Institute’s permanent collection, never before seen by the public. The Images Peterson illustrated several popular books with his brilliantly executed penand-ink drawings. Among these were “How to Know the Birds” (1949), “Wild America” (1955), “The Bird Watcher’s Anthology” (1957), and “Penguins” (1979). This exhibition fea-

In the Upstairs Gallery: A Field Guide to Wildflowers This exhibit presents a side of Roger Tory Peterson that often is overlooked, eclipsed by his fame as a bird artist. In fact, here you see represented one of the great projects of Peterson’s career - the Peterson Field Guide to the Wildflowers of Northeast and North Central North America. Today, 45 years after its first publication, the Peterson Field Guide to Wildflowers remains in print and continues to inform and inspire nature lovers. We hope you will enjoy this unique look
at a rarely heralded part of the great naturalist’s career. Coming Soon: America’s Parks Through the Beauty of Art Opening Reception Friday, May 17- 7 p.m. Starting May 18 and running through July 28, RTPI will proudly host America’s Parks Through The Beauty Of Art, an outstanding juried exhibition featuring 50 original works of art depicting scenes in parks of all kinds in the United States as well as Canada and Mexico. This exhibition is an artistic tribute to parks (national, state, provincial, county, city) by a range of talented artists working today.

Everyone is invited to separate evenings of art, music, food and shopping in downtown North East, Pa. ‘First Fridays at Five’ will take place on May 3 and June 7, from 5 p.m. until 8 p.m. The first event on April 5 was an astounding success. Even though there was a significant chill in the air, a sizeable crowd of visitors braved the cold and enjoyed the various activities, and took advantage of the shopping deals with artists and businesses alike. Again, downtown businesses will be staying open late and pairing with local artisans, creating an openair market along Main and Lake Streets (Routes 20 and 89). Gibson Park will have a variety of entertainment and family activities for the whole family. Should the weather take a turn for the worse, musicians will be moved into Todd Crowley’s Musical Petting Zoo on Main Street. The North East Arts Council is sponsoring a children’s activities tent. A free game area with chess, checkers and card tables, will be set up in the picturesque “Alley” on Route 89 across from the Boston Bean Café.

An additional tent will house artisan demonstrations including North East Painter Tamara Maas on May 3 and Chautauqua County Weaver’s Guild with a Loom Demonstration on June 7. Various Downtown restaurants will be participating with dining specials and even live entertainment. Community Interest Groups including the Grapevine TimeXchange, North East Chamber of Commerce and Lake Erie Wine Country, will be on hand to share their vision of North East and how they make the vision a reality. The First Fridays committee (representatives of
several North East businesses, with support from Downtown North East and the North East Chamber of Commerce) is planning this repeating event to promote the broad spectrum of North East businesses and talented artists that make this a wonderful place to be. North East, a “must visit” area, offers the delights of wineries, specialty merchants, fine foods- all against the breathtaking backdrop of Lake Erie- accented with the visual and audible charms of talented artists and musicians. This series of First Fridays highlights many reasons that North East is one of the best places to live and visit.
Sometimes we would like to support an organization and the good works it does, but it’s just too much trouble to get all dressed up to go to their event. Or maybe by the time we pay for the babysitter or the new outfit or the gas to get there, we feel like most of the money we spent didn’t go where it would do the most good. The Audubon Center & Sanctuary is offering an opportunity to support its many environmental education programs without ever leaving your house. Audubon’s UnEvent is being held entirely on-line… unless you would prefer calling the Center with your contribution. From now through June 21, Audubon is accepting donations to this non-happening for which you don’t need to get a babysitter or a new outfit or have your hair done or buy gasoline to get there. All you have to do is go to their website’s homepage, click on “UnEvent,” and take it from there! To make it more exciting, prizes will be awarded for the best photograph – in several categories – of what you didn’t have to do for the UnEvent. The contest categories are: Children or pets you don’t have to leave home alone. Transportation you don’t have to take. (Include the number of miles you don’t have to travel as there will be an additional prize for the person who didn’t have to travel the furthest.) Outfit or hairstyle you didn’t have to pay for. After making your donation on Audubon’s UnEvent page, a link will take you to a special Facebook Event page where you can post your photographs and anecdotes. You can click “like” to vote for the pictures and posts, and the pictures with the most “likes” in each category will win. June 21, 2013, is the deadline for the fun exchanges. You can also make a tax-deductible donation by mailing a check to the Jamestown Audubon Society, 1600 Riverside Road,

Foster Parents Needed
Contributed Article Lutheran
Nancy Nelson of Frewsburg was married at the age of 20 and longed for children. As fate would have it, she turned to fostering children to fulfill her motherly instincts and fill her home with the joyful sound of children’s laughter. She has fostered dozens of children over the last 30 years. Her husband passed away 19 years ago and she continues to be a foster parent. “I’m blessed to have the support of my community and church.” She said. The most frequent question she gets asked is, “Aren’t you afraid you’ll get attached and miss them when they leave?” Her answer tugs at the heartstrings, “If it doesn’t hurt when they leave, you shouldn’t do it,”
she says. She is quick to add that when most of the children leave they are going to a permanent loving home, so she sees her role as maintaining positive relations with the parents to help make a smooth transition for the children. They may be returning to a more stable home environment or entering adoption with a forever family. Over the years, she has adopted three children and she stays in touch with many of the children and their families. “Some of my foster children even come back and stay for a visit,” she said. To help the community better understand foster care, the Therapeutic Foster Care Program of G.A. Family Services located at 515 West Fifth Street in Jamestown is having an open house on Tuesday, May 14 from 6 p.m. until

Foster children are between the ages of birth to 21 years old. Both married and single adults and those with or without children in the home are invited to attend. “Fostering is a life enriching experience,” Dreyer adds. “The rewards are endless, not only for the children but for the adults, as well. We know it’s not a decision to take lightly, which is why we are offering this open house, so people can come and ask

The Prendergast Library Art Gallery will feature Colors of the Spirit, an exhibit by sisters Jamie Quick, a photographer, and Asterie Michell, a multi-media artist, from May 3 through May 31. Ms. Quick’s work was featured in the FowlerKellogg Art Center at the Chautauqua Institution in 2011, following a solo show at Prendergast Library in 2010. In Florida, she has shown at the Backus Museum in Ft. Pierce, the Vero Beach Museum of Art, and the Morningstar Library in Port St. Lucie. This year her work will appear in a juried show called The Eye of the Camera at the Backus Museum, and in 2014 she will have a solo exhibit on the Morningstar Library Wall of Art. “I photograph in digital only. Some of my work is manipulated, and some is not. I try to keep the focus and the color intensity as close to what I see as possible.

important as what others have to say.” Cesana noted that TRC Foundation awards about $70,000 in grants annually and that, over the years, the organization has awarded about $700,000 to improve the lives of Chautauqua County residents with disabilities and other socioeconomic challenges. He then introduced a video that showcased some of the ways in which TRC Foundation funds were used during the past year. Greg Peterson, an attorney who has been affiliated with The Resource Center since 1976 and who currently serves on TRC Foundation’s board of directors, shared a bit of TRC Foundation’s history. He said the foundation was established in 1994 and held its organizational meeting in February 1995. Peterson added that in its early years, the fledgling organization was able to grow thanks to the efforts of one man. “In order to give it some impetus, in order to give it some real credibility, the TRC Foundation really was supported by Carl Cappa,” Peterson said. “Carl was going to take this up by the bootstraps and make it something special.” Cappa, the late philanthro-

pist and businessman who served as the chair of TRC Foundation’s board for several years, created a golf tournament that has netted more than $1.2 million for TRC Foundation since it began in 1997, Greg said. Given that TRC Foundation’s current assets stand at about $1.72 million, the TRC Golf Classic has been a major contributor to the foundation’s financial success. Besides raising money, Peterson said, events like the TRC Golf Classic, Street JAM and Laurel Run help raise awareness and get people “pausing and reflecting on the developmentally disabled, that they are individuals, and that they deserve the attention and respect that we get.” Harkening back to The Resource Center’s early efforts to raise money and awareness, Peterson talked about an initiative that took place in the 1980s in which TRC became the official seasonticket sellers for Jamestown’s professional baseball team, which then was called the Expos. The initiative was so successful in raising money and awareness that ESPN aired a story about it. Peterson then showed the video, which included footage of Expos players conducting a baseball clinic with a number of TRC service recipients.

Pictured from left are Greg Peterson, a member of TRC Foundation’s board of directors; Tracy Bennett and Michael Brunecz of Lake Shore Savings; and Michael Felice and Dr. Harry Glatz, members of TRC Foundation’s board. Lake Shore Savings received the Outstanding Sponsor Award and was honored for reaching $75,000 in contributions to TRC Foundation.
The rest of evening included the presentation of several awards. Marcus Maloney, who has been involved with the Street JAM basketball tournament since its inception in 1997, received the inaugural Special Event Volunteer Award. “I’m not the most humble man, but I will say that I am humbled by the people that are sitting in this room, the fellow award winners and the honorees,” Maloney said. “I am thrilled and honored to be part of this organization.” The Outstanding Sponsor Award went to Lake Shore Savings, which last year agreed to partner with TRC Foundation and become the presenting sponsor of the TRC Golf Classic for three years. “On behalf of Lake Shore Savings, all of our employees, we are honored and privileged to be a part of this tremendous, great organization,” said Mike Brunecz, the chair of Lake Shore’s board. He said the bank first became involved with the golf tournament in the 1990s at the suggestion of one of its advisory board members – Carl Cappa. Randy Ordines, TRC Foundation’s current board chair, received the Founder’s Award for being one of the signatories on the document that led to the foundation’s creation. Ordines said he was appreciative of the award but felt “a little bit selfish as well,” explaining that the staffs of The Resource Center and TRC Foundation do an exceptional job at achieving their missions of improving the lives of people
with disabilities. “I take a look around the room at the people who are active in The Resource Center, active in the TRC Foundation, and it’s hard for me to stand up here and accept this award,” Randy said. The event was held in The Resource Center’s Conference Center on Dunham Avenue in Celoron. The evening began with a social hour featuring hors d’ouevres, wine tastings by Merritt Estate Winery and live music by Razz and Friends. This was followed by dinner catered by B&B Catering.

DFT Communications Awarded Grant to Expand High Speed Internet to Underserved Areas in Two Counties Contributed Article DFT Communications
DFT Communications of Fredonia has announced that it has received a NYS grant through Southern Tier West Development Foundation, which will enable it to provide wireless high-speed Internet connections to some towns and villages in Chautauqua and Cattaraugus County for the first time. Employing a less traditional wireless technology, the project expands access to broadband service through WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) to previously unserved and underserved areas including Arkwright, East Dunkirk, Silver Creek, Sheridan, Hanover, Forestville, Findley Lake, and Mina. The project also provides wireless Internet connectivity to the village of Little hael Valley and Gowanda and the City of Olean ake The grant, in the amount of d to $526,856, was awarded to DFT based on its estimates of project costs, with the telecommunications company investing $56,000 and a local match by Cattaraugus County of $50,000. The announcement comes on the heels of a 2011 grant by
Southern West Development Foundation which funded DFT WiMAX service to parts of Celoron, Forestville, Lakewood, and Sinclairville, as well as the towns of Busti, Charlotte, Chautauqua, Ellery, Ellicott, Hanover, North Harmony and Sheridan. Funding for the latest project came from the Connect NY Broadband Grant Program. Eighteen broadband projects across New York State were selected to receive Connect NY Broadband grants based on the endorsement of the Regional Councils and technical scores awarded by a committee who analyzed and ranked projects competing for the $25 million in funding. “Southern Tier West has viewed the deployment of high speed Internet as an essential component to both community and economic development efforts across Chautauqua County,” states Rich Zink, Treasurer of the Southern Tier West Development Foundation. Due to the rural nature of where they live, many residents in the Southwestern counties of New York State find getting high speed Internet difficult, if not impossible. For many in outlying areas, traditional broadband (like DSL or cable) is simply not offered. Low population

densities, large amounts of open space and hills have deterred traditional carriers from investing in facility upgrades and equipment improvements. Satellite and cellular providers offer an alternative, but at a high price and low data caps. David Pihl, Vice President of Operations at DFT Communications states, “the technology (WiMAX) existed, but the business case looked pretty bleak without the grant,” which he said covers the cost of engineering, equipment installation,
fiber optic backhaul and a required radio system. Along with building and installation, DFT will also provide 24/7 tech support and various Internet services for its WiMAX customers. Bill Daly, Administrative Director and CEO of the Chautauqua County IDA (CCIDA), says Southern Tier West has been instrumental in working on this grant, characterizing the project as “a great partnership with DFT Communications.” “Whenever we can take broadband to another area,
it’s a wonderful thing,” adds Daly. Pihl said the project is currently in the engineering phase, and will utilize existing towers in Chautauqua and Cattaraugus to deliver the service. Using “line of sight” technology from each location to a nearby tower, WiMAX requires a radio receiver at each location with an external antenna, which ultimately connects to an all-fiber optic network to the Internet. Customers using WiMAX
can expect download speeds of up to 6Mpbs, allowing them to easily download music and stream movies and other content. “With a standard dial-up connection, downloading an email with a picture attached can easily take half an hour, with WiMAX that same email will download in seconds,” states Pihl. Pihl says the technology has practical uses, which will allow people to work from home, support small rural businesses, and could also help assist farmers who use the Internet for agricultural applications. The first customers to receive WiMAX will be in DFT’s current service area including East Dunkirk, Sheridan, Forestville, and parts of Silver Creek, South Dayton and possibly Cherry Creek. However, Pihl says the technology will permit the company to grow its customer base into Cattaraugus County by enabling it to provide the service to that region. Customers interested in WiMAX high speed Internet from Netsync Broadband services are invited to call 673-3000 or 1-877-653-3100 or visit the dial-up friendly web site www.netsync.net/ wimax for more information. Prequalification for WiMAX service is required.

Inspired by events from his book Head Games, Nowinski, a former Ivy League football star and WWE wrestler, interviewed Bob Costas of NBC Sports, NHL all-star Keith Primeau, Olympic women’s soccer gold medalist Cindy Parlow Cone, and others on the dangers of head concussions, prompting viewers to ask themselves, “How much of you are you willing to lose for a game?” A panel discussion intended for parents, students interested in a medical field, student-athletes, athletic administrators, school
nurses, youth, high school, and college coaches, as well as other medical professionals involved in the care of student-athletes will be held after the film. Besides Nowinski, panelists will include Michael Mitchell, M.D., WCA sport medicine physician and team physician for JCC and Falconer High School; Jarett Rhoades, MS.Ed., ATC, CSCS, head athletic trainer at Eastridge High School; and Lauren Saglimben, a JCC studentathlete in women’s soccer and basketball, and her father, Mark. Nowinski, who was diagnosed with post-concussion syndrome, is co-founder and president of the Sports Legacy Institute (SLI), a non-profit organization dedicated to solving the sports concussion crisis. He is also co-director of the Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy at Boston University School of Medicine. The May 31 program is sponsored by JCC’s college program committee with the New York State Athletic Trainers’ Association.
Contributed Article SUNY Fredonia The 2013 Marion Fellowship for the Visual and Performing Arts has been awarded to SUNY Fredonia Photography professor Liz Lee, who will create “Cosmological Process,” a body of photographic work inspired by “Our Elegant Universe,” the opening week theme of the 2013 Chautauqua Institution season. The fellowship will support Lee at Chautauqua and two additional locations in the creation of a photographic series designed to inspire a new, closer relationship with the universe during a period of growing environmental and social crisis. She derived the series from “A New Story,” an article written by Thomas Berry, a 20th century priest and eco-theologian, which explored whether thinkers and theologians are closer to answering the most basic questions of existence. Cathy (’79) and Jesse Marion created the fellowship to bring together the arts from both public and private sectors and facilitate community outreach at Chautauqua Institution, the Alberta College of Art and Design, Alley Theatre in Houston, the Ucross Foundation’s artist retreat in Wyoming and the Springboard Schools in Egypt. Lee’s fellowship is the first of three annual awards the Marions, whose philanthropy has benefitted these institutions, are funding. “Based on her creative and comprehensive approach, articulate presentation and enthusiasm, Jesse and I feel that Ms. Lee is an excellent choice as our first Fellow. She is uniquely qualified to further our long-term goal to enrich cooperation and collaboration between SUNY Fredonia and other institutions within the Marion Fellowship Circle,” Cathy Marion said. The concept of the Marion Fellowship was developed by June Miller-Spann, associate director of the Fredonia College Foundation and a selection committee member. “The goal was to initiate collaboration between arts and educational institutions in a way that results in a reciprocal benefit for these Marion Fellowship Circle members, while also aligning with the philanthropic interests of Cathy and Jesse Marion,” Miller-Spann said. Launch of the Marion Fellowship coincides with formation of SUNY Fredonia’s College of Visual and Performing Arts, and the Marions’ desire to support the new college in a unique way. “We are very grateful to Cathy and Jesse Marion for making this opportunity available,” Dr. John Kijinski, dean of the College NYSATA, established to advance, encourage and improve the profession of athletic training, will hold its annual conference at JCC June 1-2. Athletic trainers, allied
“Self Portrait,” Liz Lee
of Arts and Sciences and member of the selection committee, said. “It is a great way for us to showcase our Fredonia talent at other institutions. Furthermore, it is an innovative example of public and private institutions working together in a common cause made possible by the philanthropy of the Marions.” Dean Kijinski indicated that “Cosmological Process” is particularly suited for this fellowship, and that her project fits in perfectly with the “Our Elegant Universe” theme. The project will pose interdisciplinary questions about patterns of order and connections in the world and how those patterns and connections are both captured by and constructed through art, Kijinski said. Lee combines old and new technologies and puts them at the heart of the artistic process. Lee’s proposal was an overwhelming favorite of the selection committee. “Of all the applications reviewed, Liz Lee’s stood out as one of the most comprehensive in its focus and fit with the goals of the fellowship. In that her proposal encompasses an underlying spirit of discovery rich in potential, as well as strong collaborative opportunities, I think Liz is an excellence choice as the inaugural recipient,” said Bob Booth, SUNY Distinguished Teaching professor and a selection committee member. Proposed projects for the Marion Fellowship represented music, dance, theater and visual arts, said Dr. Karl Boelter, director of the School of Music and a selection committee member. “We looked for advantageous and creative use of the opportunities that the Marions made available through this fellowship, and Liz Lee wrote a particularly compelling narrative that clearly defined this in every aspect of her project.” The fellowship covers travel and lodging costs associated with artistic experiences at three or more Marion Fellow Circle Member destinations within a 12-month period healthcare professionals recognized by the American Medical Association, work with physically active individuals in a variety of settings including physician offices, sports medicine clinics, occupational set-
and development of a final project. Attendance at Chautauqua lectures, presentations and performances will enable Lee to gain a more complete understanding of “A New Story” and whether the thinkers and theologians assembled at the institution’s first week have come any closer to answering the most basic questions of existence posed by Berry in his 1978 article. Alberta College of Art and Design in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, will be Lee’s second destination in late November. She will discuss and demonstrate SUNY Fredonia’s more interdisciplinary arts-based photographic study at ACAD. Student critiques, a public lecture, small process workshop and meeting with fine arts administrators to conduct a program review and discuss the BFA option will be key elements of the week-long visit by Lee, who grew up in Alberta. A one-week residency in March 2014 at the Ucross artist retreat in Clearmont, Wyo., will be dedicated to compiling thoughts and creating a presentation of Lee’s artistic journey that she will give at SUNY Fredonia in the spring of 2014. Lee, who participated in a Vermont Studio Center artist program that resulted in her “Sun Prints” series, is looking forward to gaining a fresh perspective on her ideas through interaction with other artists and writers at the renowned Ucross program. Department of Theater and Dance chair Tom Loughlin, another selection committee member, is particularly fond of Lee’s views and insight into technological and natural worlds, referring to her as a modern artist who has not abandoned many of the traditional views of art and its connection to nature and the human experience. Students will benefit from Lee’s fellowship experience by seeing a working visual artist move from conceptualization through the entire process leading to the eventual creation of an artistic product, Loughlin tings, hospitals, secondary schools, colleges and universities, professional sports teams, and the military. For additional information on the “Head Games” screening and panel discus-
explained. “That thought and imaginative process, I think, will be the big pay-off for students and the new College of Visual and Performing Arts alike. The skills and intellect she brings to the creation of artwork is something that all students should strive to emulate and achieve,” Loughlin said. Lee is a meticulous and demanding artist whose work over the years has taken her on incredible intellectual as well as artistic journeys, he added. The Marions anticipate students in the new college will be inspired not only by her finished work, but also the observations, interactions and insights she may find along the way during her travels on this creative journey. The fellowship will allow Lee to work on new art, Kijinski said, “and nothing is more important for our students than getting to work with artists who are actively expending their own work and having that work recognized by others in the world of art.” Moreover, Lee will be introduced to other artists at the three Circle Member locations, and that could lead to internship and graduate opportunities for SUNY Fredonia students. Boelter said the fellowship, which demands collaboration between people and among artists, represents a model of what the new College of Visual and Performing Arts offers to the campus community. “I feel that the Marions understand that their fellowship, made possible at this particular point in time, is a catalyst toward a college that unites our work and mission.” Lee, who earned a master’s of Fine Arts degree in Photography from Savannah College of Art and Design and a bachelor’s degree in Fine Art from the University of Calgary, has held numerous leadership positions, including chair and associate chair of the Department of Visual Arts and New Media and vice-chair of the Academic Affairs committee. She also served on the College of Visual and Performing Arts Founding Dean search committee and is the accreditation coordinator for the Department of Visual Arts and New Media as it undergoes accreditation with the National Association of Colleges of Art and Design. Lee’s work has appeared in numerous national and international exhibitions. “Liz is a very gifted photographer. Her work expands the concept of what the art of photography should be about,” Kijinski said. “I’m sure her work will be of real interest to people at the other institutions which she will visit during her fellowship travels.”

or eight, Braumagin says that he remembers seeing a picture of ten or twelve of them “all lined up” near the railroad. The Cherry Creek historian theorizes that the charcoal, used for cooking before the days of electricity, may have been transported to areas where wood was not as plentiful. “Here, it wouldn’t have made any sense, because we had a wood supply.” Tramps Like Us Interestingly, Braumagin says he remembers vagrants who hopped on and off the trains using the kilns for overnight shelter and a place to start a fire for warmth. “There were a lot of people that traveled the trains….we called them bums or tramps, they’d jump off the tracks and stayed in them, because there was cover; He adds, “the nice thing about it was that there was still charcoal in the base of these things, because they never scraped the ground…so they could start a fire, and warm up a can of beans, or whatever.” He states that some of the transients were probably migrant workers. Braumagin vividly remembers growing up near the railroad, the aspects of which tell of a long-gone age. “We had a freight train that went through daily and dropped off boxes of coal, feed, and two passenger trains- one in the morning and one night at night.” He says the trains carried the mail and ice to the depot. Many industries were near the railroad, including a basket factory and a milk plant, but “there was no big deal made of them”, says Sweeting. Today, grass and scrub trees are all that remains in the site where a thriving industry once flourished.

rable too. On paper, it’s a very short par 4, but you absolutely have to lay up from the tee box because you can’t see the green from where you’re standing. I believe I hit a 9-iron. If you don’t get your ball out onto the fairway though, you’d be in a world of hurt because there are trees everywhere and your second shot has to carry a small creek. It’s probably a hole that takes a few rounds to get the hang of. Or maybe I’m just saying that because I played it so poorly. The next hole that is unlike anything I’ve ever played before was No. 16. Again, on paper it’s just a short par 3, but your tee shot has to carry a 100-foot deep gorge. Both Bryan and I hit fairly nice shots, but obviously some people didn’t. The bottom of that gorge was littered with little white specks. It reminded me of in the movie ‘The Sandlot’ when the dog shows the kids all the baseballs it gathered and the kid says, “Now we can play forever.” Holes No. 17 & 18 are both par 5s and again back across the street. To answer any doubt, it’s not a hassle at all to cross the street back and forth. If anything it kind of gives you a feeling of playing multiple different courses on the same
afternoon. I do recommend riding though, especially if you’re playing on the weekend. Saturday was very busy, but luckily everyone had carts so the pace was pretty good. Only the biggest hitters will reach the green in two on No. 18. I hit one of my best drives ever, but still had to lay up because there’s a blind pond in front of the green that can swallow up balls if you’re not careful. That said, I think Bryan and I only sacrificed one ball to the water all afternoon. Back at the clubhouse, the staff had the grills on and the air smelled of summer — hot dogs and burgers. If I hadn’t had a prior engagement to get to, we surely would have indulged. Nothing ends a round of golf like a burger and a brew.

GOT STORIES?
freWsBurg Wiffle Ball tournament sets out for a good Cause Continued from pg 1 After 30 days of antibiotics, the lump had not decreased in size — which it would have had it just been a cyst. After umpiring all summer long and having no discomfort, Lindquist returned home to Jamestown and made another doctor’s appointment. In just six months, the lump had tripled in size. Dr. Jung was adamant that it had to come out. “Here I was,” Lindquist said, “an athletic 27-year
old, engaged to be married and I was going under the knife. I was mad at God and wondering why He would allow such a thing like this to happen to me. My fiancé Jennifer kept reminding me that everything happens for a reason and that I needed to trust in God and believe that I would be okay when it was all over and done.” Dr. Jung told Lindquist that the surgery went great and they were able to extract the entire lump.
After another week of tests, it was determined that the lump was in fact cancerous, but they had caught it very early. “After a 15-day treatment of radiation from Dr. Stanley Byun’s office and eight years of follow-up appointments, I am proud to call myself a cancer free survivor,” Lindquist continued. “I am also proud of our two naturally born children. “I was treated very kindly,
personally and effectively by our local medical providers and am happy that I chose to stay local for my treatments,” he added. “The support of my wife and our family and friends was also very important as I felt we went through the situation together, rather than me trying to battle it on my own.” It’s an inspiring story and one that could have ended far differently had Lindquist not caught the cancer early on. That’s
why he wants to spread the word that men need to be aware of testicular cancer. If you’re interested in playing in the Wiffle Ball Tournament, check out the Facebook page “1 Ball Wiffle Ball Tournament for Testicular Cancer” or email 1ballwiffletour@ hotmailcom for more information. If you can’t play but would still like to support Lindquist and his cause, please make a donation
or pass the word along to friends or family who might be interested in playing. Sponsorship packages are also available. “I can’t stress enough how important it is to see a doctor on a regular basis for a routine physical or appointment,” Lindquist concluded. “We can’t always tell that something is wrong with us, and neither can they, but our chances of beating the odds are much greater with the support of physicians and family.”

Miller, who became the NHL's 20th goalie to play 500 games with one team. ''If it's to be in Buffalo, I'm going to savor my whole career somewhere I like to be. That's great,'' he said. ''If it's somewhere else, I'm going to have to accept it and move on. That's sports.''

of acquiring assets for players not deemed part of their long-term plans. And Regier did suggest after trading Pominville to Minnesota this month that he might not be done retooling the roster. Vanek is also unsure of his future, and reiterated on Saturday he's not interested in staying in Buffalo if the team intends to start from scratch. ''I've said it before, if it looks like it's a long rebuild, it probably makes the most
His season over, Ryan Miller will be getting on a fl ight home to Southern California next week. Where he heads after that is anyone's guess. The Buffalo goalie still has one year left on his contract, but he acknowledged Saturday his future with the Sabres is uncertain. This is a team suddenly in transition after a tumultuous lockout-shortened season. The Sabres went from hopeful contenders to dejected rebuilders in the span of three months. They fired longtime coach Lindy Ruff and traded three veterans, including captain Jason Pominville, for prospects and draft picks. It's not out of the question that Miller, the face of the franchise and star of the 2010 U.S. Olympic team, could well be next. ''My status, it's really up to Darcy and the direction they're going to go,'' Miller said, referring to general manager Darcy Regier. ''It's defi nitely signs of a little bit of a shift in the long-term plan, so I don't know. ... Ultimately, it's not going to be up to me. We'll see.'' Miller spoke while Sabres players cleaned out their lockers a day after closing the season with a 2-1 shootout win over the New York Islanders. It was Miller's 500th career game Buffalo Sabres goaltender Ryan Miller waves to the crowd after an NHL game against the New York Islanders in and 269th victory - both Buffalo, N.Y., Friday, April 26.

led the team with 20 goals and 41 points in 38 games this season. ''I don't know what the plan is.'' Defenseman Christian Ehrhoff isn't sure what to expect this offseason. ''When you trade your captain, there shouldn't be any surprises,'' Ehrhoff said. ''Personally, I defi nitely hope to have (Miller and Vanek) on the team next year, because they've been really good players for us.'' Another question is who will take over as coach. One candidate is interim coach Ron Rolston, who went 15-11-5 after Ruff was fi red. In fi nishing 21-21-6, Buffalo missed the playoffs for the second straight season and fourth time in six years. And the Sabres have not won a playoff series since 2007 when they made their second consecutive trip to the Eastern Conference finals. That's doesn't come anywhere close to the Stanley Cup-contending aspirations owner Terry Pegula expressed upon purchasing the franchise two years ago. Pegula has been one of Miller's biggest backers, at one point suggesting he intends to have the goalie fi nish his career in Buffalo. Miller would like nothing more, and spoke of the loyalty he has for the city and the team. ''It has been about my heart being here, and wanting to be here. And I'm going to continue to play that way,'' Miller said. ''I've enjoyed my time in Buffalo. If I get to spend more time, it's going to be a lot of fun. If not, I'll try to bring the same qualities I brought here somewhere else.''

Jamestown Ironmen goalie Joey Ballmer has been the difference as the Ironmen have jumped out to a 2-0 series lead over the Soo Eagles. (Submitted Photo)
Courtesy of Jamestown Ironmen With contributions from Stefan Gestwicki, Sports Editor
The Jamestown Ironmen are on the cusp of clinching the North American Hockley League North Division championship after stunning the Soo Eagles twice on the road last week. Goaltender Joey Ballmer was flawless in Saturday’s Game 2 action as he helped the second-seeded Ironmen pitch a 1-0 shutout. Elliot Tisdale scored at the 6:27 mark of the second period to the lone tally of the game. Assists were credited to Victor Johansson and Brett Szajner. It was Tisdale’s fi rst goal of the playoffs. After earning a bye in the fi rst round of the playoffs, Jamestown swept Kalamazoo to advance to the North Division Finals and has yet to lose a game in the playoffs. In Game 1, the Ironmen offense was clicking as Jamestown cruised to a 6-3 victory to open the series in Sault Ste Marie, Mich. Despite the fact that Soo had won six of eight regular season meetings between the teams, Jamestown showed no signs of being intimidated by the No. 1 Eagles. Before the game started, all indications pointed toward a battle of goaltenders as two of the league’s best would be between the pipes; Tyler Marble of the Eagles and Ballmer for Jamestown. Despite the speculation, there were plenty of goals scored in quite a roller coaster ride of a game. The top-seeded Eagles got off to a good start, taking a 1-0 lead 4:32 into the game, but the home team’s edge didn’t last for long. At the 11:38 mark in the fi rst period, the Ironmen went wild, piling up four goals in less than four minutes to give themselves a 4-1 lead.
Nico Sierra started off the scoring binge with a power play goal off of a Huba Sekesi assist. It was a busy four minutes for the statistician as Luc Gerdes supplied a goal and an assist, Evan Ritt and Daniel Cesarz scored goals, Ryan Doucet dished out a pair of assists, Tyler Dunagan added another and Sierra chipped in with one of his own. All that action sent the game into its fi rst intermission with the Ironmen leading 4-1. Soo stormed out of the gates in the second period scoring a pair of goals less than ten seconds apart in the fi rst minute of the period. This cut Jamestown’s lead down to one goal moving the score to 4-3, but would be the last time the Eagles would put the puck into the back of the net. Almost 18 minutes after the Eagles’ scoring surge, Ritt delivered his second goal of the contest on a power play with an assist from Dylan Zink and Jamestown headed into the second intermission with a 5-3 lead. Ryan Urso put the fi nishing touches on the Game One victory, scoring a third period goal with assists from Sierra and Dunagan. Ballmer and the Ironmen defense also excelled down the stretch, tightening up and refusing to allow any scoring for the fi nal 39:21 of the game. Ballmer was solid in goal for Jamestown, as a few early goals did not rattle the veteran. He fi nished the night with his fourth playoff victory and 30 saves on 33 shots from the Eagles. Jamestown tallied up 38 shots, went 2-for-2 on the power play and was 5-for5 on the penalty kill. The Ironmen can fi nish the job Thursday when they play Game 3 at the Jamestown Savings Bank Ice Arena at 7 p.m.

Devils Head To Baseball Tournament Contributed Article Fredonia State Sports Information Dept.
The Fredonia State baseball team will be competing in the SUNYAC Tournament in Cortland this weekend. The Devils enter the tournament as the No. 4 seed and are slated to take on host Cortland, ranked No. 3 nationally, on Friday at noon. The double-elimination tournament continues through Sunday. The Devils are led by a group of eight seniors. Senior Zachary Hugg has been one of the team's most consistent starters this season. All of his five starts have been against SUNYAC competition, with three resulting in wins. He began the season with a 3-0 shutout of Plattsburgh. Angelo Sciandra had a pair of SUNYAC starts, but will be out of the pen for the tournament. He has posted a 2-2 record this season, while holding opponents to a .244 batting average. Other top arms for the Devils include juniors Sean Larson and Kyle Grey, as well as sophomore Zachary Jordon. Larson has been a workhorse in all three seasons with the Devils and has a pair of conference wins. Grey and Jordon have been
games at third, short, second, catcher, DH and has four starts on the mound. Brian Sheehan (.366) tops the Devils in hits, walks, hit by pitches and leads the SUNYAC in on-base percentage while serving as the team's catcher. John Bennett has been a pleasant surprise this season after moving from shortstop to the outfield. He has a .354 average and has played a solid left field. Senior centerfielder Ian Gallagher leads the Devils with 23 RBI, while another senior, Dan Fetes, is the top doubles hitter as the team's designated hitter. Gallagher and Bennett have teamed up with sophomore Kenny Johnston (.277 average, 14 walks) to form a solid outfield. Juniors Matt Casilio (.329) and Conner Lorenzo (.310) have provided steady play in the infield at third base and second, respectively. Fredonia State shortstop Erik Krohl and the rest of the Blue Lorenzo has served as the Devils are headed to Cortland for the SUNYAC Tournament team's leadoff hitter. this weekend.

Coach Swanson was not soft on her. Sometimes when you get a program like that and you’ve been the go-to person, you get away with some things. Coach Swanson did not let her get away with anything.” Perhaps a big reason both
girls chose JCC is the availability of immediate playing time as Sisson is only bringing back four returning players — including Cassadaga Valley graduates Taylor Storer and Brook Draggett. “We’re looking for them to be contributors right away,” Sisson agreed. “We’re looking for the freshman class to come in and play right away. I’m looking forward to taking them from the high school level and transitioning them to the college level.” Of course, Sisson will

Chautauqua County schools owned the pole vault as Silver Creek’s Mike Ewell took first with a height of 12-06 and Jamestown’s Awsten Beaver was second (11-06). Area athletes also did very well in the shot put, led by Jamestown’s Joe Mistretta’s first-place toss of 47-02 and Dunkirk’s Alex Williams, who was fourth at 41-02. The Frontier boys barely edged out St. Francis for the meet title. Frontier (76.5) and St. Francis (74) were followed by Iroquois (69), Sweet Home (68.5), East Aurora (67), Cattaraugus-Little Valley (61), Dunkirk (49), Hamburg (47), West Seneca East (47), Jamestown (39), Fredonia (38), Silver Creek (26), Gowanda (25), West Seneca West (12), and Chautauqua Lake. It was the Iroquois girls who won the meet with 112.5 points. They were followed by East Aurora (103.5), Hamburg (84.16), Frontier (71), Orchard Park (68), Sweet Home (65), Fredonia (41.5), Dunkirk (40.83), West Seneca West (24), Silver Creek (21.5), Gowanda (18), Jamestown (16), Immaculata 15, Sacred Heart (11) and Chau-

tauqua Lake (9). “This meet isn’t necessarily about winning and losing for my program,” Burnside added. “It’s more about showing off our athletes and facilities. There is always so much to be negative about when talking about high school athletics, especially in Dunkirk. For this single night, we’re able to show off all the positives associated with our athletes and school. It’s a great feeling as a coach, teacher and community member.” Iroquois was boosted by an MVP performance by Madison Roberts, who earned the honors for the field events. She took first in the triple jump (34-01)
