Khim Winship’s ‘Skaneateles’ top seller at Creekside

Ned Campbell

Jennifer Griffin, right, addresses a question from the audience as fellow Notre Dame students Claire Watson and Robert Smith look on.

By Ellen Leahy On Dec. 9, Creekside’s Maureen Edson introduced Kihm Winship at its first official signing of his book, “Skaneateles: The Character and Characters of a Lakeside Village.� She noted that the book had been the independent bookseller’s number one seller, since its release in November. Edson said, Winship, a copywriter for ChaseDesign, had been writing Ellen Leahy about Skaneateles’ history since moving to the village in 1998; and before Kihm Winship signed books both before and after this talk on Skaneateles. the book, he had been published in Training and support the Skaneateles Press, among many Winship is a former librarian, having studied other publications, and had also written about beer. library science at Syracuse University, where he met Winship addressed the audience and said that Chahis wife of 30 years and favorite indexer, Laurie WinseDesign’s Tom Riley had said, “I hired you because you ship at Bird Library.

Krebs update given

A report in last week’s Skaneateles Press detailing the comments made about The Krebs project during a Village Planning Board meeting are being disputed by a spokesman for Adam Weitsman, who is financing the effort to save the venerable restaurant. Project architect Andy Ramsgard stated during the 55-minute discussion that the Weitsmans have agreed with the board to not engage the two other properties in their transformation of the Krebs. And, they agree to not tear them down, but they would like to be able to sell the properties free and clear as A1 parcels. In an exchange of emails, Stephen J. Donnelly, Weitzman’s spokesman said there has “neverâ€? been a discussion of selling the properties. “Not once did the Weitsmans ever discuss selling any of the properties,â€? he wrote. â€œThere were discussions on easements of the properties (which are three separate parcels) which is not fair but never has Adam Weitsman spoken to a broker about selling.â€?Â

In brief

Deadline to sign up for Medicare plans nears Excellus BlueCross BlueShield offers several free Medicare seminars before the annual Medicare enrollment period ends on Dec. 31. A seminar is scheduled at the Y center Skaneateles 10 a..m. and 1:30 p.m. Dec. 8. Go to excellusmedicare.com for a full list of upcoming seminars.

Donate your car to the Kidney Foundation With the excitement of the holidays, it’s easy to forget that soon it will be the tax man, not Santa, knocking at your door. Instead of wrapping paper and ribbons, you’ll be knee-deep in receipts and calculator tape. So this year, why not extend the season’s joy of giving while preparing for April 15. Donate your car to the National Kidney Foundation of Central New York Kidney Cars Program. You’ll not only help thousands of Americans suffering from kidney disease, you might also qualify for a tax deduction — a welcome year-end break

from expensive holiday shopping. Donating is easy. All you need to do is call 1-800 488 CARS (2277) and the National Kidney Foundation will provide you with instructions on the auto donation process, then they will arrange for a free pick-up. Vehicles are sold at auction, with 75 percent of the proceeds supporting the work of the National Kidney Foundation. For more information or to donate your car, van, truck or boat, call 1-800 488 CARS (2277) or donate online at kidneycars.org.

The first weekend of November provided the opportunity for numerous members of the Skaneateles, Auburn, Port Byron and Sennett Fire Departments to receive 16 hours of aerial and ladder operations training from FDNY Ladder 27 Lieutenant Mike Wilbur, a 21 year veteran of the FDNY. Lt. Wilbur owns and operates Emergency Vehicle Response (emergencyvehicleresponse.com), serves on the FDNY apparatus purchasing committee and is a contributing editor for Firehouse Magazine and Fire Apparatus Journal respectively. Lt. Wilbur is a nationally recognized expert in the areas of Emergency Vehicle Operations, Apparatus Placement and Purchasing and those firefighters in attendance received a great deal of information and tactics to return to their home departments and share with their colleagues prior to the arrival of winter.

Since old man winter has arrived and the holiday season is approaching remember the following safety tips:

� Make sure to dial 911 in the event of an emergency – for those of you who are returning for the holidays, the local dispatch center has been closed and the "fire phone" is no longer in service. 3 Make sure your house is numbered and the number is visible from the street to assist firefighters or EMS personnel in locating your residence. 3 For those of you that live on a fire lane or a distance from the road and have mailboxes on the street or at the top of a fire lane, you are required to have your house number on the mailbox AND believe it or not actually have

/P QMBOT GPS ZPVS LJET EVSJOH UIF IPMJEBZ CSFBL

the numbers on your house! 3 House numbers should be visible from the road and should measure a minimum of four inches in height and be reflective in nature. 3 Make sure to test your smoke detectors and carbon monoxide alarms monthly and if you have not done so yet, change your batteries in those devices. 3 Make sure to shovel the snow away from the fire hydrant located on your property or on your street. The small amount of time it takes to keep that area around the hydrant free from snow is invaluable when your home is on fire. 3 Make sure not to place wrapping paper or packaging materials into the fire place to burn since they may become lodged in the flue of the chimney resulting in a fire.

Fire calls by the numbers

With the calendar changing to December, it ushered in the last month of 2010 along with a fast paced start for the members of the Skaneateles Fire Department. During the first week of December (Dec. 1 to 7) SFD members responded to 17 alarms with six alarms being answered on Saturday Dec. 4 alone. As for the month of November, the members of the Skaneateles Fire Department responded to 26 calls while in October the members responded to 35 calls for assistance bringing the yearly total to 300 calls thus far. The officers and members of the Skaneateles Fire Department hope that everyone has a Merry Christmas, a wonderful holiday season and a happy new year and please remember to buckle up and don’t drink and drive!

Opinion Editorial

A cry for help

The recent rash of youth crime in the city of Syracuse has people up in arms. The shooting deaths of Henninger High School graduate Kihary Blue, 19, and toddler Rashaad Walker Jr. stunned the entire community. “Enough.” That is the cry of the people who live on these increasingly crime-ridden streets. It’s time to take action so that the families living in these neighborhoods, paralyzed by fear, can have their lives back. But first, we need to understand why this is happening before we can help. There are several risk factors to juvenile crime; causal effects include living in poverty stricken areas that often expose youth to violence and drug abuse very early, getting into “the wrong crowd,” easy access to firearms and broken or unstable families. City Police Chief Frank Fowler confirmed this in his speech to community leaders earlier this month: Youth crime is as much social as it is criminal. Fowler said in order to prevent youth crime, structure has to be provided for young people. Where this is not available at home, military-type schools should be formed to mold children through high school. This would give children the discipline, education and sense of belonging they so desperately need. Local non profit organizations approach the problem from a different angle. They believe the root cause of violence is poverty and are engaged in a long-standing campaign to abate it. Habitat for Humanity, Visions For Change, Home Headquarters and Catholic Charities, to list a few, work on issues such as affordable housing, job training, mental health and education to transition people out of poverty. Every part of the process will have to involve the full commitment of the wider Syracuse community. To become a part of the solution, volunteer with one of the organizations below: Habitat for Humanity, 422-2230, syracusehabitat.org Visions For Change, 218-0938, vfcinc.org Home Headquarters, 474-1939, homehq.org Catholic Charities: 424-1800, ccoc.us Salvation Army: 475-1688, sasyr.org

Where have all my cowboys gone? A friend was recently visiting from Rhode Island, and while on Facebook she said, “How do they know I’m in Skaneateles? There’s an ad for the Sherwood Inn on here.” We discussed how “they” track us now - GPS technology or something like that. How “they” know everything about us. Then, we all threw out what ads we frequently see. My brother Steve said he always gets the FIND WOMEN OVER 40. His 12-year-old daughter Dana said, she just gets ads for all the games that frequently contain viruses Mine just says “FIND YOUR COWBOY!” Pretty much as time went on, whenever I was on Facebook, there was a cowboy staring up at me from the right side of the screen. Trust me, I was tempted. Come on, I grew up with the Cartwright boys, The Rifleman and Jim West. But now that I think about it, I also grew up with Napoleon Solo, Hercules, Lloyd Bridges and Bozo. Where were all the ads for clowns, muscle men, deep sea divers and spies? I loved “It takes a thief.” No burglars? Not even one who could possibly steal my heart? Nope, just cowboys. Something about me translates

digitally into, cows and boys. So, recently I updated my profile, and switched my relationship status from “in a relationship” to “single.” In an instant, I had four ads for men: “Find your millionaire,” “Your next husband here,” “Make him addicted to you,” “Meet faithful Christian men,” plus, a ‘how to’ on “The perfect Cosmopolitan.” The later, I believe was a drink, rather than a cosmopolitan male, which I believe would be called, a Metro. It was amazing how quickly my life had changed - a key stroke. Then, I thought, “What about the cowboy,” which led me to deduce that if I was in a relationship, it would be okay to be longing for a cowboy. Perhaps even run off with a cowboy. But, when not in a relationship, I needed to get down to serious relationship business, by first drinking a Cosmo, and then setting out to get me a millionaire or a husband or a stalker or perhaps all three in one, like the Holy Trinity of man. That combo would keep me warmer than any laptop. Once I was settled in, I could go back to the wide open spaces, and dreaming of riding and roping those little doggies all day, longin’ for my cowpoke. Drinking cowboy coffee. A life in the bunkhouse, or preferably the open range. Trade in the Cosmo for Whisky, straight. So, now I’m curious, what ads do you get if you’re married?

Reminder: Be wise using credit cards Since the recession first hit, credit card use has slowed substantially. The Federal Reserve reported that consumer borrowing fell again in August as consumers cut back on credit card use for the 24th consecutive month. That said, however, the majority of American families have credit card debt. There are varying reports of how much credit card debt the average American family holds—anywhere from $6,000 to $12,000—so it’s important to keep a few good financial guidelines in mind, especially during this time of year when larger purchases may be in your plans.

Here are some smart consumer tips on credit card use, in part provided by the New York State Consumer Protection Board: ● Shop for the card with the best terms. Beware that “affinity” credit cards that are affiliated with a group or school may not have the best available terms. ● Look for low or no annual fees on cards. ● Seek low-interest rates or finance charges. Some offer an introductory rate of 0 percent but watch out for balancetransfer fees and do the math. A list comparing credit card terms and some of the better credit cards is available at http:// financialtools.money.msn.com/best-credit-cards/ ● Refrain from using your credit card for cash advances and transfers. The fees and interest on such transactions are higher than for credit card purchases. ● Remove your name from marketing lists by calling 1-888-5-OPTOUT and eliminate the temptation of applying for new credit cards. ● Track your spending. Incidental and impulse purchases add up. ● Set a spending limit. ● Don’t “max out” or exceed your card limit. ● Review your billing statement carefully to ensure all charges are correct ● Pay what you owe. Paying the so-called “minimum

payment” is a trap: in some cases, just $1,000 of debt could take 12 years to pay off if you send in the minimum payment. ● Pay bills no later than the due date to avoid late payment fees, which can increase your balance and cause a hike in the annual percentage rate charged to your account. In many cases, these late fees are $35. ● Review all notices from your credit card issuer, including changes in terms and conditions relevant to your account and privacy policies. Doing this may prompt you to change credit card companies or banks, especially with all the new Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure Act forces credit card companies to spell out in plain English to the consumer. (To learn more about this law that became effective in February, visit www.nysconsumer.gov/educating/ credit_and_finances.) ● Secure and review your free annual credit report and learn about your credit score at http://www.ftc.gov/freereports The New York State Consumer Protection Board keeps a list of helpful links to help people learn more about personal finances. This list can be viewed at nysconsumer.gov/educating/consumer_resources_and_links/consumer_links.htm For help with debt management, visit the National Foundation for Credit Counseling at www.nfcc.org. Many scams focus on “fixing debt” when in reality, some of these companies only add to a person’s debt load. Be aware of these types of false promises if looking to repair credit or climb out of debt. There are a number of debt calculators which account for interest rates that can help you manage your credit cards. These can help you establish a payment that you can afford. One can be accessed at the Federal Trade Commission’s website at ftc.gov/creditcardcalculator If you have any questions or comments on this or any other state issue, or if you would like to be added to my mailing list or receive my newsletter, please contact my office. My office can be reached by mail at 200 North Second Street, Fulton, New York 13069, by e-mail at barclaw@assembly. state.ny.us or by calling (315) 598-5185.

Opinion Timing is everything, especially this week Well, I sure blew it on Monday Nov. 30 when I made an executive decision that it was a bit premature to make final preparations for storing my wheel toys under cover. Traditionally, I shoot for the second or third week in good old predictable December to finish up and get my car in the garage. That Monday was quite sunny and very clement. I should also have gotten the outside Christmas lights in place the same day. However, the cold northerly winds have driven some ducks down my way. We have an active flock of Buffleheads settling in, probably for the rest of the

winner. There is a large flock of diving ducks. A good percentage of them are male Merganser ganders. The ducks with the dark body that one would assume are female Mergansers that go with the green-headed males don’t have the rusty-colored head with a rear facing tuft of feathers. The lack of good light and the distance have made identification difficult for me. Not all dogs are created alike, even beagles Mr. Lemon is apparently going soft, as he is very reluctant to go out in the See Timing, page 19

Winter Memories bring warmth By Scott Drahos

Winter, many of us think of this season as boring, or at best, think there is little to do. There are many memories of mine and from friends that appear to contradict this philosophy. ✔ What about the driving lessons that Dad would give to new drivers in off peak/empty parking lots. One learned how to pump brakes, come out of fishtailed spins, and start and stop without spinning wheels. ✔ How about ice fishing with skates on checking those tip-ups. ✔ Tobogganing down farmer’s fields

navigating those tree lined ‘slopes.’ ✔ Ice hockey on the back woods ponds that had to be shoveled off time and time again. ✔ Snowshoeing through the woods during the daytime or at night. ✔ Sledding on the Flexible Flyer down dirt roads for up to a half mile of clear sailing. ✔ Fox and Hounds with the ‘course’ made with one’s feet in the snow on the lawn. ✔ And of course the big bonfires to keep warm during these events. ✔ Ruffed Grouse hunting after a two foot See Memories, page 9

Business

Pomodoro still golden By Ellen Leahy The late Karen Foltz of Pomodoro and Pomodoro Too (PT) had a secret weapon. It was her husband Neal, who is now actively managing their two businesses in the village of Skaneateles. He actually worked behind the scene with Karen on the financial and administrative aspects of the businesses; and although he wasn’t actively a buyer, he traveled to all the gift and stationary shows with Karen. Setting up shop The store’s originator, Betty Congel Johnson took some creative license with the French word pom d’oro- apple of gold. That is why all their bags, business cards and signs have an apple on them. The Foltzs relocated to Central New York, when Neal, an electrical engineer, took a job with Welch Allyn. Before this he had worked for Control Data and Northern Telecom in the twin cities area. Before the Foltzs purchased Pomodoro from Betty, Karen had been in sales and a rep for gift items. Having her own store was a dream realized Neal said. She was able to be a shop girl, but with the strength of many years as a business woman in the gift industry to back her up. Skaneateles’ downtown retail community benefitted from her past experience and her passion for her work. Pomodoro Too

“It was a mutual decision to open Pomodoro Too,” Neal said. When Neal retired, the couple decided to open Pomodoro Too, as Karen had always wanted to do stationary, but didn’t have room at Pomodoro; Plus, as Neal said, “It would keep me off the streets!” With Karen’s untimely death this past summer, Neal has kept their dream alive with help of a great staff: Mary Stevens with more than 15 years at Pomodoro, Meara Sabin (Pomodoro and PT), Carol Shannon (Pomodoro) and Debbe Spearing (Pomodoro).

book, but it did seem daunting, until he had the idea to instead capture his essays in a volume. “An essay, I can write,” he said. And, it’s true, it’s a form Kihm has mastered. And, one that is also very engaging for the reader. But beyond his writing, his physical storytelling during his presentation at the Creekside, was in a word, “Spellbinding,” said lifelong Skaneateles resident Linda VanHoltz. “It’s not just the material, but the way he speaks that is so compelling.” Village resident, Joan Thomsen agreed, “He has a twinkle in his eye, and is such a good speaker.” Former lakee resident (summer kid),

Volume II, too

While waiting for the audience to settle in, the Winship’s letter carrier and lifelong Skaneateles Resident, Linda (Zechman) Van Holtz, mentioned that Bob Gray (of Gray’s Funeral Home) had said she was in the book. Kihm Winship said, this wasn’t the case, as he was instead holding her story for Volume II. You might be wondering, is there enough for a Volume II? Kihm said that even though there are 200 years of history touched upon in the first book, there are so many more stories still to tell. Maybe even yours

turned permanent Laker, Betty Congel said, she was struck by the idea that he could not have done this book without the Internet. And, she was glad to hear that “there were a lot of skeletons in Skaneateles’ closets.” Van Holtz agreed, it’s just people from the outside who have this pristine idea of Skaneateles, “Anyone who has lived here knows that it has always been filled with characters.” “There were a lot of rascals out there,” Kihm said. The characters Kihm first introduced his Creekside audience to perhaps one of his least favorite characters, George Barrow. In George’s obituary it was written that he was a man who placed the interest of the village above all others. But in Kihm’s research, he discovered that George was instead a big fan of George, who often put his own interest before anything or anyone who stood in his way, especially the village. He contrasted George with Samuel Montgomery RoosEvelt, who was a real champion of the area and a gentleman to be much admired. Kihm went on to drop more names and told snippets from their adventurous lives, including who was related to whom and in which house they had lived; and he brought in iconic people and events such as Mark Twain, the invention of the steam engine and the sinking of the Lusitania. He whet the audience’s appetite for the 498 page volume, and intimated that there was a second work in the wings.

Ellen Leahy

Winship wowed his audience with his talk at the Creekside bookstore about many of Skaneateles’ characters. Winship is the author of “Skaneateles: The Character and Characters of a Lakeside Village.” Village resident, Bill Leahy said, “If you heard that there was a book called ‘Skaneateles,’ you wouldn’t think it had the content he just described. It’s fascinating.” “The thread is the struggle to live,” Kihm said, “People, even people with great wealth can not escape this.” He also said, it has been exciting to connect with so many relatives of people who are in the book, “Hearing from the relatives has

been so rewarding.” Kihm has a website called Faithful Readers and a Skaneateles Blog (http://kihm6.wordpress.com/), where he has collected most of his essays from over the years. But getting his work into print has really made a big difference, “I’m happy to have it in this form.” “It truly is a village full of characters,” Kihm said, “sometimes amusing, sometimes inspiring, sometimes humbling.”

Plan text plan to maps. The “now and after” maps they drafted lined the walls of the district offices’ meeting room. “The fact is, there is go-

ing to be development,” said committee member Bob Eggleston following the students’ presentation. “As soon as [one developer

comes] into town, freeze it. I’ve been here 30 years and I keep seeing that every five years … we don’t want any more development, but it will occur.” Cathy Dove, head of the committee, said one of their goals was to establish a “proactive vision” with regards to development. “Because you’re not going to stop change, so the idea is, let’s have a plan,” Dove said. The proposed plan “encourages development, but in a sustainable way,” said student presenter Jennifer Griffin. One goal was to encourage foot traffic in places other than Main Street. “Right now when you come to this intersection you look down and see these parking lots and you’re not sure if you’re supposed to go down there or not,” Griffin said, pointing to the intersection of Fennell and Jordan streets. The plan suggests trees be planted along Fennel and more buildings built close to the road, “providing this pleasant pedestrian experience that allows for more retail to be up against the street so it’s kind of similar to the character and quality of [Main Street], which is what

they really love – what the community really values,” Griffin said. Also mapped out on Fennell Street was a civic square that would be host to a joint town and village hall building. The comprehensive plan also approaches the issue of vehicles driving too fast as they enter the village by suggesting grassy boulevards be installed at the village’s east and west entrances. The boulevards would split route 20 into two narrower one-way lanes, separated by a median, encouraging traffic to slow down. Griffin compared the effect to how cars entering a narrow tunnel tend to slow down instinctively. The students concluded that in order to facilitate appropriate development, the town code must be updated — recommending the town implement a form-based code. A form-based code illustrates the density of development officials would like for specific areas of the town, Griffin said. Audience members discussed the possibilities of having separate codes for the village and town, but Mayor Bob Green saw this

as an opportunity to reorganize. “It sounds like an opportune time to do a comprehensive zoning plan instead of town and village, that this be looked at comprehensively throughout the town,” Green said. Alan Dolmatch, a committee member, was impressed with the students’ work. “It’s far more work than our committee could’ve hoped for and it’s of very high quality,” he said, adding that it is now up to the committee and local officials to put it into real world context. “Because obviously one can draw as well as one can possible futures, but getting there and getting the resources to make happen is an entirely different thing,” he said. Dove noted their success in grasping “what this community is all about.” She felt the students had succeeded in mapping out the committee’s concepts — ”making them visual in a way we can all relate to,” Dove said.

Laker boys hockey blanks Whitesboro By Phil Blackwell pblackwell@cnylink.com Everyone playing Section III ice hockey in 2010-11 faces a new landscape - including the Skaneateles Lakers, who might just flourish. At the very least, the Lakers proved dominant in Friday night’s season opener against Whitesboro at Allyn Arena, where it took more than five times as many shots as the Warriors in the course of a 5-0 shutout. A massive off-season realignment reduced Division II from two divisions to one as combined programs from Hamilton, Solvay, Cortland/Homer, Watertown IHC and Ontario Bay all were moved up to Division I. The Lakers stayed, though, and are joined in Division II by defending state champion New Hartford, plus Whitesboro, Auburn, Oswego, Cazenovia (who beat Skaneateles in last year’s sectional semifinals), Fulton and CBA/J-D. And they’ll play each other twice during the regular season

in true home-and-home series. It all began for Skaneateles against Whitesboro, and the Lakers were eager to get going after seeing much of the week’s practices wiped out by the massive winter snowstorm. Leading 1-0 after one period, Skaneateles put things away with four unanswered tallies in the second period. And it maintained pressure throughout the contest, taking a total of 34 shots while limiting Whitesboro to just six. Dan Tarolli, with two goals, and Jim Rodgers, with one goal and one assist, led the way as Jon Rogalia and Mitchell Jones also put in goals. Brendan Major, Mike Benson, Tyler Stanton and Matt Clymer got one assist apiece. Trevor Diamond, fresh off his work in goal for the Skaneateles boys soccer team that won the state Class B championship, started in the net and earned the shutout. Weather permitting, the Lakers stay at home next week, playing CBA/J-D on Wednesday and Cortland/Homer on Saturday night.

Indoor track Lakers impress at Morse Relays By Phil Blackwell pblackwell@cnylink.com The Sknaeateles indoor track and field team moved right into contention against the large schools during last Saturday’s season-opening Jack Morse Relays at SUNYCortland. All the Lakers did on the girls side was take fourth place with 42.5 points, not far from Liverpool’s winning total of 55 points. On the boys end, Skaneateles tied Fayetteville-Manlius for sixth with 25 points, as again the Warriors (44 points) prevailed. Led by Caroline Walton and Joanna Dean, the girls Lakers won the shot put with two combined tosses of 61 feet 7 inches. And in the high jump, Gabby Eckles and Emma Ford had total clearances of 9 feet 9 inches, which also led to victory. Skaneateles took second in the long jump with two leaps of 28 feet 5 ¾ inches. Danielle Mazzeo, Claire Motyl, Cassie VanSlyke and Alex Clark landed in fourth in the 4x800 relay in 11:25.84. In the 4x400, Ford, Courtney Pitman, Taylor Woodruff and Maddie Sherman matched that fourth-place finish in 4:45.84. Skaneateles also was fourth in the 55meter hurdles (22.19 seconds). Meanwhile, in the boys edition of the Morse relays, the Lakers had two long jumps that added up to 32 feet 10 ¼ inches, good for second place behind Corcoran (35 feet 3 inches). And in the high jump Skaneateles cleared 11 feet, just two inches worse than Corcoran, who won again. Two triple jumps of 70 feet 1 inch that meant a third-place finish as the Lakers added a fifth (67 feet 11 inches) in the shot put.

George Newton takes Girls hoops Lakers falls to J-E first and second! By Phil Blackwell pblackwell@cnylink.com

Four riflemen met at our range at 0900, Saturday, Dec. 4, to shoot our regular weekly high power match. Dave Spearing had last week’s targets patched, and the snow cleaned out at the targets and at the range shelter. We all thank him. The temperature was 26 degrees. It was snowing and the light wind was from the north-east. We all fired the A Course of the John C. Garand Match, as fired at the National Matches. Dave Spearing won the match with his .30-’06 caliber 1917 Enfield with 89-2X’s+91+83=263-2X’s. He would have won a bronze medal if he had been shooting at Camp Perry. Chuck Chernoff fired his ’03-A3 Springfield and hit 88+84+82=254. I fired my ’03-A3 Springfield, made by Remington, and hit 86+87-1X+68=241-1X. Ron Troch fired his Model 447.62X54R Mosin-Nagant and hit 93-1X+85+61=239-1X. We all went to the fine Willow Glen Café for hot beverages after the match. Carrie and Aryana poured and Spearing paid. We all thank them. On Tuesday night, Dec. 7, five hand gun shooters fired in the 10th week of the 25 week winter league. George Newton won first and second place in the match with the only center fire scores of 281-4X’s and 263-2X’s. Chuck Chernoff was third in the match and first in rim fire with 256-2X’s. Dick Bailer was 2nd in rim fire with 197. I was first in two handed rim fire because I was the only one. Ron Tunney shot for practice. Don’t forget the club’s winter trap league, beginning 0900 on Sunday, Jan.2, 2011. Shoot safely.

Once again, the Skaneateles girls basketball team was given the difficult task of trying to improve its record amid the OHSL Liberty division, one of the state’s toughest leagues. Having gone 1-17 a season ago, the Lakers opened Friday at Jordan-Elbridge (who went to the Section III Class B finals a year ago) and took a 67-37 loss to the Eagles. Before Skaneateles could find proper footing, J-E had firm command, having raced out to a 38-15 halftime lead. Only in the third quarter, when the Lakers outscore the Eagles 15-13, did the visitors find some consistent success.

Elizabeth Lane reached double figures, earning 12 points, while Jackie Leslie had nine points and Jordan Dudden got seven points. J-E had Molly Hourigan and Kali Davis finish with 16 points apiece. S n ow e d o u t of last Tuesday’s home opener against Bishop Ludden, the Lakers would be at home this Tuesday to play Cazenovia before a Friday trip to Westhill.

Skaneateles girls hockey starts 2-0 By Phil Blackwell pblackwell@cnylink.com A season ago, the Skaneateles girls ice hockey team reached a new peak, advancing to a state final four that it hosted in front of huge crowds at Allyn Arena. Now a new campaign has begun for the Lakers. Though some stars, like Maddy Morrissey, have moved on, the bulk of the team is back to make another run at glory. It sure started well, as Skaneateles swept back-to-back games in the north country, none more exciting than Saturday’s 2-1 overtime

conquest of Salmon River. In the Upstate Girls Hockey League opener, Skaneateles trailed, 1-0, when in the second period it tied things up as Britanny Powless scored off a feed from Michelle Bronk. Through the third period, it remained 1-1, Salmon River getting all kinds of chances to move in front, only to get stymied by the Lakers’ top-notch goaltender, Alex Brown, who would finish with 38 saves on the game. They went into overtime, and most of the extra period remained scoreless. But with just 48.4 seconds left,

Bronk again fired a deft pass, and this time it was Madison Singler the beneficiary as she put home the winning goal. A day earlier, in a non-league game against Massena, the Lakers blanked the Red Raiders 2-0. With Brown resting, Amanda Lupo got a turn in goal and stopped all 25 shots she faced. Kalie Pidgeon and Brittany Williams earned the goals, with Powless earning an assist. Skaneateles would play Tuesday at Oswego, then come home for a weekend set against Massena and Albany Academy.

SkanRaces Swim Free Program for 2011

Seven year-olds can get free swim lessons at the Y thanks to collaboration between SkanRaces.com and the Auburn YMCA-WEIU and Skaneateles YMCA and Community Center. Starting with swim lesson sessions in January 2011, if a child is seven years old during any portion of the swim session, then that child is eligible to participate in the session at no charge, thanks to the support of program sponsor SkanRaces. “Living here in the Finger Lakes where water activities abound, it is critical for the safety and wellbeing of our communities that all children develop basic swimming and water safety skills,” said Dave Hamilton, Aquatics Director at the Auburn YMCA-WEIU. “Drowning is preventable and children who have not learned to swim by age seven are at-risk. We want to help increase community safety by providing swimming instruction at no program cost to all families with seven year-olds – especially those with children who have not yet learned to swim. The folks at SKanRaces are partnering with us in this important work as sponsor of the SkanRaces Swim Free Program and providing the financial backing to make it possible.” Years ago, the fourth grade classes in the Auburn School District would come to the Y for swim lessons. The Auburn Y is instituting

the Skanraces.com Swim Free Program to try and achieve similar ends – teaching swimming to kids for safety and for lifelong recreation. That goal is a great match with the mission of the SkanRaces organization and it is excited to support this program and the children who will be involved. The SkanRaces Swim Free Program will be available at all the pools managed by the Y – in Auburn, in Skaneateles, and at Casey Park next summer. Swim lessons for children of all ages - six months to 99 years - are offered year-round at the Ys in Auburn and Skaneateles. The YMCA Program Brochure has swim lesson class dates, times, and descriptions. First-time seven yearold swimmers should sign-up for the Polliwog class. Returning swimmers should sign-up for the level recommended on their last Swim Lesson Progress Report. Register for classes by calling or visiting our Member Service Desk, or visiting our website and registering on-line. Additional information on this and other Aquatic programs offered at the YMCA is available by contacting Dave Hamilton or visiting the website: (315) 253-5304/ www.auburnymca.org. Additional information on various racing events offered by SkanRaces.com is available by visiting their website: http://www.SkanRaces. com

over the Lakers. Both Skaneateles and Ludden had breezed t h rou g h t h e i r s e a s on openers on Friday night - the Lakers taking out Jordan-Elbridge 90-33, the Gaelic Knights shutting down Cazenovia 66-26. Thus, whoever won this game would have a 2-0 mark, and more importantly, an early leg up in the OHSL Liberty division regular-season race - aside from the warm memories of playing on Syracuse University’s grand basket-

ball stage. Casey Ganley’s jumper 1:45 into the game provided the first points of the occasion, and with tight defense Ludden kept the Lakers cold early and jumped to a quick 6-1 lead. But after Skaneateles head coach Karl Norris used a time-out, the Lakers got comfortable, increasing defensive pressure and converting on the other end, too. And by the time Justin Sisson drained a 3-pointer in the closing

seconds of the period, Skaneateles had moved ahead, 14-11. Even though Ganley notched seven straight points for Ludden early in the second quarter, Skaneateles countered with a 15-4 run to close out the half, six of the points coming from Paul O’Donnell. Again, a late basket mattered as Jimmy Atkinson’s 3-pointer from the corner helped the Lakers take a 34-25 edge to the break. To turn it around again

in the third quarter, Ludden pounded it inside to Kaigler, Ganley and Corey Hunter, taking advantage of the struggles Roberts was having. A 16-6 run gave the Gaelic Knights the lead back, and six straight points at the end of the period had Ludden in front, 47-42, with one quarter left. Not stopping there, the Gaelic Knights put together a 13-0 run deep into the fourth quarter, Kelly Beaudoin capping it with a 3-pointer that increased the margin to 54-42, forcing Norris to use another time-out. Only now did Roberts get his first field goals of the afternoon as the Lakers made one more comeback attempt in the closing minutes, chipping away and closing within 56-51 with nearly three minutes left. But Ludden would have the last, crucial push, as baskets from Kaigler and Beaudoin, plus some key free throws from Tyler Young, sealed Ludden’s win. Ganley led Ludden with 17 points. Close behind, Beaudoin had 14 points, with Hunter contributing 12 points, Young earning 11 points and Kaigler earning eight points. O’ D o n n e l l h a d 1 2 points before fouling out and Rice als o had 12 points, though just one in the second half. By contrast, all but one of Roberts’ 12 points came after the break.

In 2010 we added more physicians and programs ● Anesthesia- Drs. Ascioti and Cady ● Neurology- Dr. Rashid ● Orthopedics- Drs. Smallman and

Basener ● Radiology- Dr. Hennemeyer ● Emergency- Dr.Murphy ● Primary Care- Dr. Belgard ● Hospitalist Program- Dr. Duckett

As a result, our anesthesia department improved considerably. We now offer neurological services in connection with the University of Rochester, and orthopedics sport medicine with Dr. Basener. We also have an interventional radiologist on staff full time. In Emergency Services we also made a major decision in making significant changes in the way we practice and deliver urgent and emergent care services with the selection of Pegasus Emergency Management. We have already begun to see some improvements in wait times and reduction in persons leaving without being seen. In 2011 we plan to continue to expand hours at both the Grant Ave and Skaneateles Clinics. Women and Maternity services have seen tremendous growth in the total number of newborn deliveries from 260 in 2007 to 405 in 2010 and of course we have begun our $2.4 million renovation project for a State of the Art delivery area. From a Community perspective we have 945 employees at a cost of $35

million dollars annually in salaries and wages to area residents. Information Technology- we have also invested heavily in a State of the Art information system for both our financial and clinical information systems. We spent nearly $2.5 million in 2009 and another $2.8 million in 2010 to make sure AMH is at the forefront of all hospitals to comply with Federal Healthcare Reform rules and regulations for an electronic medical record. In closing, we are strong, alive, and have a very bright future. We have added healthcare programs, services, jobs, and invested heavily in information technology to improve patient safety and quality of care. We, too, have felt the effects of a struggling economy, and early phases of health care reform which among other things pays less to providers compared to past years. We have had to make some very difficult choices to manage budgetary constraints while maintaining a growing healthcare delivery model. We have very ambitious plans for 2011 with additional physician recruitment, stroke center designation, advanced radiological technology, completion of the Maternity Unit renovation, and more information technology. I would like to personally thank each and every one of you for your patience, understanding, and ongoing support for Auburn Memorial Hospital as we strive everyday to bring you “quality healthcare close to home.” Happy Holidays!
