Santa Claus came to town, the town of Clarence, on Nov. 23 at the Clarence Town Clubhouse. The holiday tree lighting event was hosted by the Clarence Youth Bureau.

Find more than books at Monkey See, Monkey Do... By Alicia Greco THE SUN EDITOR

Kim Krug and her mother, Kathleen Scoog, have been in business at Monkey See, Monkey Do... Children’s Bookstore for six years. “We opened the bookstore six years ago and our whole goal was to provide a place in the community that we can do really creative learning with children and adults, and bring our books to life,” Krug said. “It’s more than

just a bookstore. It’s a place that you come to take a class, book a birthday party, or participate in an author event.” Inspiration to open the bookstore was derived from her children, she said. As a full time employee at Blue Cross, Blue Shield, she decided to stay at home after having her first child, and has had two more since. “I absolutely loved staying home with the kids. But something was still missing. I felt I needed to show our kids who I was,” and to think

about what children should know about parents, she said. “To let them know that you still have dreams, that you want to give back to the community, to leave a legacy. You want to show them that you’re doing something you believe in. “I have a great love of learning and a passion for children. I really felt like this was the right next step for me,” she said. In that time since opening the doors of the shop, it has grown and provides a vari-

Voting took place on Nov. 24 at Clarence High School for the proposed Capital Project under the Clarence Central School District; both propositions have passed. The first proposition, which is in regard to general repairs and maintenance, passed with 1,315 yes votes and 274 no votes. The second proposition, which was contingent of the first, represented a movement for installation of new athletic facilities. That proposition passed 1,096 yes votes and 493 no votes. “The two propositions both passed, I would say, overwhelmingly,” said Superintendent Geoffrey Hicks. Many steps will be taken to complete these projects from this point forward. Next, the architects will submit project plans to the

ety of services, much more than just shelves filled with books. “Everything here is literacy-based learning,” Krug said. After-school literacy programs are available at the shop. Working with more than 20 New York state certified teachers, there are three different avenues for children.

The Clarence Schools Enrichment Foundation (CSEF) announced the first recipients of its biannual mini-grant program at the Nov. 17 school board meeting. The program, launched last spring, accepts grant requests from Clarence faculty to provide ancillary enrichment to students. “CSEF is excited to provide enrichment opportunities for the students of Clarence through the mini-grant program. Many of these grants will directly impact classroom instruction and provide technology and resources that will deepen stu-

DePasquale and the selection committee received 29 applications for consideration at the first deadline of Oct. 6. “Our criteria included looking at the number of students impacted, need of the project, and alignment with the goals of the school district and individual buildings within the district,” said Dawn Snyder, CSEF VP.

New York State Education Department, which Hicks said is a “long, involved process.” It will take close to a year for that state department to approve the plans. The Clarence Central School District will be “looking for the state education department to approve the maximum amount of state aid for each piece of the project,” Hicks said. The first proposition values at $27.8 million and the second project values at $5 million. A percentage will be paid for by the NYS Education Department, while a percentage will be paid by the local taxpayers. For example, he said, if a new roof is needed at Ledgeview Elementary, and the NYS Education Department approves that, the cost will be split from that department.

Books come to life at Clarence children’s book store Books from Page 1 Firstly, a child may join a suggested book selection club. Secondly, there is a Common Core literacy unit available. Or a custom-built unit based upon requests is also an option. Literacy options range from grades kindergarten through sixth grade. The winter session will run from Jan. 20 until March 3 and the spring session will run from March 24 to May 5. For the younger ones, a Pre-K enrichment program will be available at the store; the winter session will run from Jan. 20-April 1 and the spring session will run from April 14-June 17. Three different groups are available: Busy Monkeys (ages 2-4), Messing Around on the Monkey Bars (ages 2.5 and older) and Einstein Monkeys (ages 4 and older). Pre-registration and 50 percent payment deadline will be Tuesday, Dec. 23. Additionally, the shop will host published authors and invite the public to learn more about books. Jan Brett, a New York Times best-selling author and illustrator, will be hosted by the shop on Thursday, Dec. 4 for an “Animals’ Santa” party. Brett’s book launch tour was hosted by Monkey See, Monkey Do, last year. The event was held at Clarence Middle School; more than 700 people were in attendance. Her new release, “Animals’ Santa,” follows the story of animals in the forest trying to find out who the animal Santa is. “It is one of my favorites,” said Krug. No school is scheduled for that day, due to parent/teacher conferences. For the event, there will be a charge, per family. The shop will collaborate with Hawk Creek Wildlife Center Inc. “I’m so excited about this. We’re going to read the book first with the children. Hawk Creek is going to come in and the children are going to meet the animal Santa [portrayed in the book],” she said. Children will be able to meet two other animals from the storyline of Brett’s book, as well. “They’ll learn about the habitat, and get to touch, feel and see in person the animal Santa and two other creatures,” Krug said. Attendees will also be able to create a birdseed craft gift to take home and provide for backyard critters. Additionally, the program will be in conjunction for a fundraiser with the Lockport Kenan Center. Throughout the evening, 20 percent of all sales will go toward that school. “We like to do real creative fundraisers with schools. We’re all about partnering with them to promote literacy,” Krug said. Monkey See, Monkey Do will host camps at the shop that revolve around a certain theme, as well. A day of camp will consist of reading books, creating crafts and eating lunch. Holiday break camps will include “Natalie the Christmas Stocking Fairy” Camp on Monday, Dec. 22; “Frozen” Holiday Party 2 on Tuesday,

Registration for these camps is required, and can be done so by calling 204-8417 or emailing books@monkeysread.com. There is also a 20 percent sibling discount when attending the same camp. In addition, Monkey See, Monkey Do... bookstore provides a service to the community by hosting a program called “The Giving Tree.” During the holiday season, a tree will be set up within the store and it will be deco-

rated with tags. Those tags will have names of third grade students from PS 99 in the city of Buffalo, which has been labeled an in-need school. Comprised by mostly immigrant families, “many of these children don’t own a book — a single book,” Krug said. “What we’re doing this season, and what we’ve done in the past, is what we’re calling The Giving Tree.” Book donations will be accepted for the 100 student names that will be on the tree. “We encourage our customers to do one of two things. They can bring in age-appropriate, gently used books to donate, that we can then gift wrap and give to these children. Or they can purchase a new book. We will discount their books 20 percent,” she

More than 20 students from local high schools visited Amberleigh Retirement Community during the days of the storm to volunteer. Pictured are students Sam Shatmeyer and Andrew Kleinmann with Amberleigh resident Tom Horvatits. Some of Amberleigh’s staff found themselves in states of emergency and in driving bans during the Knife Storm that hit Western New York, so they were unable to get to work at the nearby retirement community. Margaret Kleinmann, executive director at Amberleigh, took to the Internet to get the word out to the com-

munity and reached out to see if there were any students, off on a snow day from area schools, that could lend a hand. More than 20 students from areas high schools, including Williamsville East and South, Narden, Saint Joes, Canisus and Buffalo Seminary, showed up at the front desk ready and willing to lend a hand

and chipped in to help in a variety of ways including delivering trays, serving coffee, sweeping, vacuuming, serving meals, making a hot cocoa station and playing games with residents who's ages range from 55-100. Their snow days were filled with volunteering their day off to help others.

Clarence School District Capital Project passes CCSD from Page 1 Portions of the project will go up for bid, separate bids for separate trades, such as electrical and general contractors. “You bid out all of these pieces,” Hicks said. Local construction companies and contractors will respond and the bid will be awarded, according to state law, to the lowest bidder. From there, scheduling of actual construction will begin. “We think that could, at the very earliest, be in the spring of 2016,” he said. “Sometimes because there are critical pieces of the project ... if those things came through more quickly than other pieces of the project, we would bid them out and get started on them more quickly.” Some construction will be able to completed while there are children within the building, although some

may not, he explained. Thus, a schedule will be created to phase all of the pieces of the Capital Project construction. Hicks expressed thanks to many community members. “I am grateful, extremely grateful, to the Clarence community for supporting the Capital Project and I’d also like to thank the community task force that was instrumental in recommending the Capital Project to the board of education,” he said. The task force, under facilitator Vic Martucci, worked for nearly a year making recommendations to the board. “[Martucci] was instrumental in leading the task force to decisions, presenting to the board of education and helping to educate the community about the Capital Project,” Hicks said. “He is owed a great debt of gratitude by the Clarence School District.

“Thanks to the Clarence Board for approving the project and all the things they do to support the students in Clarence,” he added. The Clarence Central School District budget will be voted on in May. Hicks clarified that the Capital Project “really doesn’t impact the school district budget.” He explained that a $200,000 home will have a $46 increase in taxes for the next 15 years, in order to pay debt for the Capital Project, which would be the 30 percent local portion split between the NYS Education Department. Presented and published PDF files about the Capital Project have been posted for the public on the district’s website.

SPINAL STENOSIS - NEW TREATMENTS • RELIEF WITHOUT DRUGS OR SURGERY WHAT IS SPINAL STENOSIS?

Spinal stenosis is often the result of the aging process, which causes the soft tissue and bones in the spine to harden or grow excessively. These changes may narrow the spinal canal and put pressure on the spinal nerve roots causing symptoms such as pain, tingling, weakness or numbness. Spinal stenosis is seen most often in adults older than age 50. The most common cause of spinal stenosis is osteoarthritis. Other causes include bulging or herniated discs, degenerative disc disease or injury to the spine.

NEW TREATMENTS FOR SPINAL STENOSIS: Three new non-surgical FDA cleared technologies are now being used at the Pain Relief Institute to relieve the symptoms of lumbar and cervical spinal stenosis without drugs or surgery. Disc Rehydration Therapy unloads pressure on neurological, vascular and osseous components and is now the primary non-surgical safe and effective treatment for patients with spinal stenosis, herniated disc, degenerative joint disease, facet arthritis, disc bulge and more. Unlike

drugs and injections, this new therapy is natural and its effects are lasting and often permanent. Another new technology called Deep Tissue Laser Therapy is used to reduce pain, relieve inflammation and restore mobility. It uses specific wavelengths of light that have a strong anti-inflammatory effect. Photons of laser energy penetrate deeply into tissue and accelerate cellular reproduction and growth. As a result of exposure to the laser the cells of tendons, ligaments and muscles repair themselves faster. As inflammation is reduced, pain subsides very quickly. Additionally, Electroanalgesia is now being used to reduce the ability of the afferent nerves to transmit pain signals. This treatment also promotes healing by means of the depolarization effects on the nerve cells. This computer-assisted treatment offers exemplary patient success in the treatment of pain, without piercing the skin. The best news is that these new therapies are suited for almost everyone and unlike some pharmacological solutions, there are no known negative side effects. Regardless of the therapies you’ve tried in the past you still have a chance to relieve your chronic pain or other debilitating condition and regain a normal healthy lifestyle.

Attend a FREE SEMINAR where you will learn all about these new technologies - Seating is limited so register NOW - Call (716) 213-6824

For more information about these therapies please call (716) 213-6824 or visit BuffaloPainDoctor.com. Mention this article when you call to qualify for a no-charge consultation with Dr. Anthony J. Bianchi D.C. at the Pain Relief Institute

Chris Jacobs reminds motorists to drive safe this winter

Erie County Clerk Chris Jacobs This is a guest column article from Erie County Clerk Chris Jacobs. Every start to the winter season, you promise yourself that this year will be different, that you’ll be ready for whatever blizzard Mother Nature sends us. We all know that winter driving can be a test for even expert drivers and you need to be prepared at all times. Before the storm hits, take a moment to review a few simple winter driving tips and double-check that you have the proper emergency gear in your vehicle to ensure your safety. Not all drivers are prepared for winter driving conditions, so take it slow when driving on snowy or icy roadways. Drive as the environment warrants, stay alert and reduce your speed. Due to poor visibility and/or bad road conditions, always leave plenty of room between cars. Brake early and slowly give yourself time to stop and react safely. Keep a full tank of gas along with dry gas in your vehicle at all times. Before pulling onto the road, be sure to completely clear snow and ice from your car windows, mirrors, lights, hood and roof. Don’t use cruise control in inclement weather as the slightest touch of your brakes to deactivate can cause loss of vehicle control. Take extra precaution when entering and exiting ramps and bridges as they can be extremely slippery.

While four-wheel drive vehicles may help you get going quicker, they won’t help you stop any quicker — don’t get overconfident when driving one. Make sure your car is properly maintained; the better shape your car is in, the safer you are on the road. Have your battery and ignition system checked, along with your brakes, transmission and tires. All fluids in your vehicle should be checked and topped off: de-icing washer fluid, oil, power steering and anti-freeze. Change or adjust spark plugs, air, fuel and emission filters. Check your headlights, brake and tail lights, blinkers and emergency flashers. If you ever get stuck in the winter season, be prepared by keeping these emergency items handy in your vehicle: a spare tire, wheel wrench, jack, shovel, jumper cables, tow and tire chains, salt or cat litter, working flashlight with extra batteries, bright cloth, first aid kit, ice scraper and snow brush. Extra clothing such as gloves, socks and hats, a blanket, a 12 volt charger for a cell phone, as well as non-perishable foods and bottles of water or juice are vital should you become stranded. Being prepared is the best offense against winter driving. Take it slow, be safe and buckle up. Additional safe driving tips can be found on the Erie County Clerk’s website www.erie.gov/clerk.

we are able to keep our taxes low is that we do not have a paid, full-time police or fire department. A full time police department would cost the town between 35-45 percent of its annual budget. Our budget for 2015 is $22,745,963; a police department would

2014-15 Hockey Preview Young Clarence boys hockey team hopes to do away with underdog status, compete for title By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

The Clarence varsity hockey team is used to being an underdog. After losing 13 seniors to graduation two years ago, the Red Devils spent last season rebuilding and doing their best to be competitive. The team finished on a high note, earning a spot in the playoffs and losing in the semifinals to Niagara-Wheatfield. “They battled,” seventh-year coach Richard Brooks said of last year’s team. “They were the underdog just about every single night, but they didn’t give up.” This year, despite icing an even younger team, Clarence hopes that the rebuilding stage is over and that the competitiveness is the focus. Clarence lost two players to graduation last year, one of them captain Max Zwierlein.

Jack Niestyty (1) will return as Clarence’s starting goalie this season. He started 10 league games last year. the only player in the history of Clarence’s varsity program to be elected to the Bowman Cup in both his junior and senior year at Clarence. “It’s a blow to lose him, but we have some good players,” Brooks said. One of the players returning this year that Brooks spoke highly of is senior forward Josh Slowinski. Brooks not only described Slowinski as a “phenomenal athlete,” but he also admired Slowinski’s leadership. “Josh is a great kid with other players, mentoring them, helping them, talking with them, making them feel comfortable and confident,” Brooks said.

“He really has a unique trait in his ability to do that. So I’m fortunate.” Although the team hasn’t officially voted on a captain yet, there is no doubt in Brooks’ mind that it will be Slowinski. “He’s not wearing the C yet, but he will,” he said. Along with Slowinski, fellow seniors Eric Grupp, Andrew Danzer, and Andrew Kempton are expected to be leaders for the young Clarence team. Jack Niestyty will return as the team’s starting goaltender. Grupp, a forward, already sets an example for the younger players with his work ethic. “Eric Grupp works 110

percent every shift, if that’s possible,” Brooks said. “Eric works constantly. I’ve never doubted his work ethic from the time that he was a sophomore to this year when he’s a senior. He’s also coachable and works well with the younger players. Eric never gives up on anything. And that’s important when you’ve got a young team, to see seniors go out there and battle as hard as they can.” Danzer, a defenseman, and Kempton, a forward, bring an approachable leadership style to the team. “Both [Danzer and Kempton] have great personalities and both

Slowinski’s leadership an asset for Clarence By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

Josh Slowinski has been playing hockey for as long as he can remember. “I remember my dad throwing me on the ice when I was 2 or 3 years old and putting a stick in my hands,” Slowinski said. But after this, his senior year at Clarence High School, Slowinski’s hockey career will be over. He’ll spend this last year captaining the Clarence varsity hockey team and setting high goals for the young team. “We’re pretty young and inexperienced, but based on what we’ve seen so far, talented,” Slowinski said. “We’ve got a long way to go, but every year our goal is to win a sectional title.” Slowinski’s only personal goal this year is to set the best

Brooks recognizes and is thankful for Slowinski’s leadership as well. “Josh has got all the leadership abilities rolled into one,” Brooks said. Slowinski understands the importance of his leadership and experience on such a young team. “We’re very young. We only have six seniors this year,” he said. “So I think what I bring most is my experience playing on the team already. This will be my third year. And having the experience of making it to the championship a couple years ago, I think I have a good JEFFREY T. BARNES idea of what we need to do as a team to obtain those goals.

They’re the right kind of kids to mentor a younger team.” As far as work ethic is concerned, Brooks sees that even in the younger players. He also sees kids who are smart and know how to play hockey. Clarence played four scrimmage games this past Saturday (Nov. 22), and Brooks liked what he saw as far as competitiveness and talent among the young players.

Swim sisters’ move to Clarence a smooth transition By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

When Celia and Anna Kottakis moved from New Jersey to Buffalo on Aug. 17, 2014, they weren’t happy about it. Although they’d both been members of their school swim team in New Jersey, they weren’t too excited about joining a new program. “At first, I just wanted to sit in my room,” Anna said. “I didn’t even really want to swim anymore,” Celia added. But they gave it a shot, and the welcoming atmosphere of the Clarence swim team made all the difference. “We moved Aug. 17, and

the morning of Aug. 18 we were at our first high school practice,” Anna said. “And I fell in love with the entire team. Everyone was so welcoming. Me and my sister were afraid that everyone would already have their own friends and we’d be kind of on the outside, but everyone was so great and it was such an amazing experience.” It wasn’t something the girls were used to in New Jersey. “In New Jersey we didn’t have that whole ‘we’re in this together’ team atmosphere, and with Clarence that’s always there,” Celia said.

Joe’s focused on finish after another title win cially when you finish up the year raising the state championship plaque. Those are the words the St. Joe’s Marauders WNY Federation hockey team will be living by as it returns to the ice this By Dave Ricci SPORTS REPORTER season. The Marauders, who have won states three out It’s not how you start, of the last four years under but how you finish. Especoach Rich Crozier, had a HEAD COACH: Rich Crozier COACH’S OUTLOOK: “There might be some bumps in the road early on in the season. The fact that they experienced that year and were able to overcome some adversity to win the 12 out of 13.”

2013-14 RECORD: 17-10-1 KEY PLAYERS: Anthony Pontello Connor McKenna Drew Monahan Matt Ruggiero Ben Higgins Justin Crawford

less than impressive start to the 2013-14 season, going 5-9-1. But they hit their stride at midseason with a strong showing at the prestigious Providence (R.I.) Tournament, where they made it to the championship game. St. Joe’s parlayed that showing into a nearunstoppable run that saw it win 12 of its next 13 games and culminated the year with a 2-1 win over St. Anthony’s (L.I.) to claim the NYSCHSAA title. It’s a run of success that Crozier has defined as a culture of success. “Anyone that went through the journey with us last year, which was a unique year in terms of the way we were able to turn

things around,” Crozier said. “I’m going to lean on them.” But as they enter the new year, the Marauders are once again faced with moving forward after losing key pieces, most notably starting goalie Peter Chopra, John Schmitt (D) and Dom Perna (F), who scored the gamewinning goal against St. Anthony’s. Leading the way are seniors Anthony Pontello, who will anchor the defense, and third-year varsity players goalie Ben Higgins and center Justin Crawford (17 points). Crozier described Pontello as a dynamic player with a long reach who is physically strong and able to play in any situation.

Senior Matt Ruggiero, a big physical winger who had 19 points last season, also returns. Ruggiero will be a force in front of the net opposing defense men will have trouble moving. Senior forwards Drew Monahan and Connor McKenna also return. “It’s hard to say this year. We’re going to be missing some key pieces,” Crozier said. “Peter Chopra, who played so well for us down the stretch. And Johnny Schmitt, a senior defenseman that we lost. And Dom Perna, who was our offensive leader. He’s elected to play for the Junior Sabres. So he won’t be back this year. So we’ll look for those (returning) guys to fill those gaps (leadership).”

Grupp gives Clarence ‘full dedication,’ work ethic By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

It’s work ethic that makes senior and third-year starter Eric Grupp a leader on the Clarence hockey team this season. He works hard in practices and in games, and the hope is that the younger players will see that and follow his example. “Eric Grupp works 110 percent every shift, if that’s possible,” Clarence coach Richard Brooks said. “All of us don’t do everything perfect, but Eric works constantly. I’ve never doubted his work ethic from the time that he was a sophomore to this year when he’s a senior.” Grupp recognizes the need for leadership on a young team, and while he works hard, he doesn’t just focus on his own game. He tries to bring the

younger players along with him. “I bring full dedication to the team,” Grupp said. “When I’m out there I like to be out there early. I’ll bring some of the younger kids if I can. I’m really just trying to better the team for anything we could do right now, because obviously two years ago we lost half the team. We lost about 12 seniors my sophomore year. So I’m really just trying to put better effort into this year more than my past years.” Brooks also said that Grupp works well with the younger players while setting an example of not just working hard but also of never giving up. Brooks knows the importance of younger players seeing the leaders battle through everything. “Eric never gives up on anything,” Brooks said. “And that’s important when you’ve got a

record than last year,” is the first goal Grupp has set. “[Kempton and I] set a few goals ourselves. We’d like to come out with a [.500 season] and just set a goal from there.” Playoffs are the goal again this year, but Grupp would like a stronger season to give Clarence a better position going into the playoffs. “When playoffs come along, JEFFREY T. BARNES [we want] to get ourselves in the best position to play a bad team,” Eric Grupp works “110 percent every shift,” Grupp said, “because if we come in last, we end up playing the first according to coach Richard Brooks. seed obviously.

in order for Clarence to be successful this season. “We need to be well-coached this year, and we need to develop chemistry amongst all our lines as soon as we can, and then move forward into game situations,” Grupp said. After he finishes his senior year, Grupp does plan on looking into hockey in college. However, it will be secondary to academics. “All my schools that I’m looking at do have a hockey team, so it’s definitely an option out there,” Grupp said. “But I would like to mainly focus on academics and then possibly figure out the whole hockey situation.” For now, he’ll be the best leader he can be for his final year on the Clarence hockey team. “I always try to be a leader,” Grupp said.

Roster comprised Sisters helped Red Devils to ECIC and of nine sophomores sectional titles, 7th-place finish at states “Clarence” from page A6 “We don’t have a lot of size but we have a lot of potential,” Brooks said. “What we saw this past weekend is that we have some kids that know how to play hockey, know where to be, and they’re very coachable. They want to learn, they want to be part of the program, so we’re excited about that. Very pleasant kids that young guys can talk to, can connect with, and that’s very important for me.” Just how young is this team? Of the 25 players participating in scrimmages on Saturday, nine were sophomores and one was a freshman. Even with a few cuts still to make, Brooks expects most of those underclassmen to be a part of the team. With the work ethic and strong leadership of this team, Brooks is hop-

ing and expecting to see a competitive Clarence team on the ice every single night. He knows there will be improvement over the season and eventually wants the team to be more than just a competitive underdog — he wants Clarence to be the favorite. “We want to be competitive every night out, and I think that’s going to improve every week,” Brook s s a i d . “ T h a t ’s a big part for me, that we’re competitive and we have a chance to win every night. And with young kids, there’s so much they have to learn yet. Every practice they get better, every day they get better. And so we’re hoping that when we hit January, we’re not just competitive but we’re the favorite to win some of these games.”

“Swim” from page A6 The girls ended up being valuable members of a team that lost several members to graduation after last season. They’d heard about the success of the program, including last year’s state championship team, and Celia was confident from the start. “We had a much smaller team this year because of all the people that graduated last year, but I knew that we were going to do good right from the beginning when I saw how their history was,” Celia said. Anna took into consideration the swimmers the team had lost and the smaller size of this year’s team, and she was more apprehensive. Still, she immediately took on the team mindset as she did what she could to contribute to this year’s success. “I wasn’t really sure what to expect for the team because

everyone was telling us, ‘Yeah, we’ve been champions for a lot of years in a row,’” Anna said. “But I wasn’t really sure what to expect. I knew that we were good but I also knew that we had lost a lot of good swimmers the year before.” The 2014 team won an ECIC championship and a sectional championship before going on to the state championship and finishing seventh. The training at Clarence wasn’t as rigorous as it had been in New Jersey, and so their motivation had to come from different places. The close-knit nature of the team was Anna’s motivation. “This year I’m really thankful for my team,” she said. “It makes it a lot easier to perform well when you’re swimming with such great people. That was a lot of my motivation to swim fast this year, because I was on relays

a lot and knowing that I’m doing it for my team was a big motivation.” Celia also credits her success to the team atmosphere, as well as good coaching. “It always helps to have a good coach, and I love when my teammates are supportive and my coach is supportive,” she said. “Of course you need hard work, but when there’s that team atmosphere like there is at Clarence, it really helps me get motivated and swim faster.” The feeling from Clarence coach Joe Zwierzchowski is mutual, and he feels that their personalties have just as much to do with the team atmosphere as their teammates’. “I don’t even know where to begin with those two,” he said. “They are two of the craziest, kindest and friendliest personalities imaginable. And they can swim. They

have endeared themselves to their teammates and have become of integral part of the fabric of this program.” Celia will always remember this season as something that made it so much easier for her and Anna to adjust to the move. “I think it’s been a really good experience, and I’ll definitely never forget it because it’s what made the move so much easier for me,” Celia said. Looking ahead to next year, both girls want to improve individually and as a team. And even the individual improvements are based on team success. “I’m definitely going to train really hard this year because next year at states I want a better standing,” Celia said. “I want to be above seventh. So if I get better then I can help my team get there.”

Senior’s days playing puck are numbered “Slowinski” from page A6 And as a member of the team, Slowinski is willing to fill any role in which he’s needed, even if it isn’t the most fun job. “I would pride myself on working hard and doing anything that the other guys may not want to do,” he said. “The dirty work, the tough battle plays. Anything like that that you may not get credit for on

the stat sheet, I’ve always tried to do that and help my team in that way. And in whatever role I’m possibly needed, I can’t say for sure where I’ll end up being needed the most by the end of the year, but as long as I just keep setting a good example for everyone else, I think we’ll be in a good spot.” Slowinski feels that in order for this year’s team to

be successful, each player on the team must know his role. Clarence doesn’t have enough individual talent on such a young team to rely solely on that. “From early on, we definitely have to come together as a unit,” Slowinski said. “We can’t rely on individual talent. We just don’t have enough of that to get away with

it. We have to work on being a disciplined hockey team and understanding what each guy’s role on the team is and then doing that. We can’t have any selfish players. Everyone needs to work.” When hockey season is over, Slowinski will spend one last spring leading the Clarence lacrosse team before going on to contribute to Le Moyne

College’s lacrosse program. “I’m looking forward to helping Le Moyne and helping them keep their tradition of national championships and bringing my skill to that program,” Slowinski said. The weird part will be saying goodbye to hockey. Slowinski can’t remember a time in his life when he wasn’t playing. “My hockey career will be

over, effective February at some point, so I’m looking to enjoy the rest of the time with this,” he said. “It really is crazy right now, just thinking about it. I really haven’t had a time period where I haven’t been playing the game, so it will be a little strange to put it down for good in a couple months, but I had a great time while it lasted.”

Not only will stone Manor. the Troopers be paying The Perfect Gift and the town of Clarence rent, Boutique is located at 6000 but the town will own the Goodrich Road. For more building after 20 years. information, visit www. The contract we agreed facebook.com/clarence- to is for that amount of centermeetinthecenter.

Meet in Clarence Center, enjoy a holiday open house The Perfect Gift & Boutique will host a holiday open house from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 6. There will be in-store specials all day, as well as free pictures with Santa

Claus. In addition to being an old fashioned Christmas, refreshments will be available. Gifts will be accepted as donations for the women and children of Corner-

time with a second renewable term of 20 years. In fact, it could be another 40 years before the town of Clarence has to think about starting its own police force. There are many towns in New York state that have more than 500,000 citizens who use the County Sherriff, and I truly hope that we continue to one of those

towns in the future. Another reason that our taxes are lower than many of the other towns is that our current infrastructure (roads and sewers) are in excellent shape. While there was federal and state grants available to pay for sewers many years ago, those funds have dried up, and the taxpayers of Erie County will have to pay the bulk of those costs themselves. Roads and sewers don’t seem to be a big issue, but if you talk to someone from Tonawanda, where the sewers will cost citizens many millions of dollars over the next several years to repair and replace, you will see that infrastructure is a huge financial issue for local taxpayers. The last, and most important piece of the puzzle is vigilant department heads and a dedicated town board that together are always watching their costs. Town of Clarence taxpayers can sleep easy knowing that, with the board guiding the process, department heads and their employees are always trying to find a better, faster, more efficient way to accomplish their work. This savings is passed along directly to you in the form of lower taxes. During my first term in office we were able to cut the general tax rate three years in a row, and with your help and support, we will continue to cut your tax rate again in 2016. Should you have any questions or positive comments, please feel free to call my office at 741-8930, email dhartzell@clarence. ny.us or stop by the Supervisors office in Clarence Town Hall. My door is always open!

Antique World and Flea Market: a place to collect the market’s schedule last spring after the flea market on Walden Avenue closed. “People will get more customers coming through here than if they have a garage sale at home,” Toth said. Antique World & Flea Market sits on 200 acres and has several large buildings and hundreds of vendors. “Typically, if you bring an item in on a day we’re open, there’s going to be somebody here to tell you what it is or its approximate value or may be willing to buy it if you want to sell,” Toth said. “The resources here, they’re extensive.” Schultz, a dealer who specializes in fine quality American and European antiques, founded Antique World in 1981. He followed his father, David, into the antique business and is also an auctioneer, along with his son, Ben. Select quality furniture, silver, coins and collections that include postcards, clocks, guns and military are selling well at auctions right now, depending on what the collection consists of, Toth said. Less in demand are glassware, primitive antique furniture and China dolls. Auctions are advertised in trade ads, on the internet and in brochures sent to their mailing list. Toth said that typically there are approximately 400-600 auction attendees each day of an event with the majority of them buying for resale. “Antiques are a good investment because the quality is definitely a lot better than what they make today and sell in stores,” Toth

said. The story about an antique that traveled from China to Clarence is one that is unforgettable for the staff at Antique World. A Clarence couple brought a Chinese porcelain vase to Schultz in 2011 for an appraisal. It had been given to the woman by a relative who used to travel the world. The vase had been in their family for at least 50 years. The couple was willing to sell it to Schultz but he told them that they could probably get more for it at an auction. When the auction notice was posted online, the vase received global interest. As everybody learned more about the vase, known as a Chinese moon flask, they realized that it must be valuable. Several bidders entered bids over the phone from Hong Kong, London and the United States. The vase, which dates to China’s Qinlong dynasty, between 1736-1795, ended up being sold for $1.5 million to an antiques dealer who traveled to the auction from Shanghai. “That was one of the most exciting things,” Toth said. “We were thrilled for the couple.” The Great American Garage event will run the first Sunday of each month from May through October. Flea market space and storage rental information can be found on the Antique World & Flea Market website at http://antiqueworldmarket.com/Flea. htm. The establishment can be found at 11017 Main St. in Clarence and can be reached at 759-8483.
