Explore Buffalo to offer course, training, season pass As Explore Buffalo continues to grow in scope and popularity throughout Western New York, the organization, which offers outstanding architectural, history and neighborhood tours, is adding even more local programming. New additions include a five-part history course called Adventures in Buffalo History, and the offering of a new Explore Buffalo Season Pass.

The organization is also currently planning a new round of docent training classes beginning in February.

Adventures in Buffalo History, featuring experienced and knowledgeable Explore Buffalo docents, will focus on a wide variety of local historical topics ranging from the French, English and Native Americans to the forts of Buffalo. Sessions will be held from 7 to 9 p.m.

Thursdays in First Presbyterian Church, One Symphony Circle, Buffalo, beginning Jan. 15. Each session is only $10, or attend all five sessions for just $40. Courses are free to Season Pass holders.

On Jan. 15, topics will include “Before Buffalo — The French, English and Native Americans” with guest speaker John Fagant,

and “Women of Millionaire’s Row” with Chuck LaChiusa.

“Before Buffalo” examines the Niagara Frontier during the period of 1600 to 1800, just as the Buffalo Creek settlement was forming.

The region was inhabited by Native American tribes who represented a buffer zone between the strong Huron Confederacy to the west and the Iroquois Confederacy to the east. The French, and later the British, were the first Europeans to enter the region. This lecture will discuss their activities and adventures during a rich and fascinating period of Western New York history.

While the men of Millionaire’s Row often receive the most attention, their wives deserve equal if not greater attention for their fascinating lives. “Women of Millionaire’s Row” will feature stories and photos of several of these women including Kate Robinson Butler, Jewett Williams Pratt, Carolyn Tripp Clement, Grace Millard Knox, Ethel Mann Curtis and Ella Portia Goodyear.

Store your mower in eight easy steps (NAPSI)—Chances are, your lawn mower has been a faithful fair-weather companion. So at the end of the mowing season, you want to give it the attention it deserves.

Here are some tips on what you can do now to be sure your mower will start easily next mowing season.

• Make sure your operator’s manual is on hand for quick reference whenever you work on your mower or any such equipment.

• Remove the spark plug lead wire from the plug before doing any mower maintenance, and tape or tie it out of the way.

• Remove the battery and store it in a cool, dry place away from gas cans, the water heater or furnace.

• Change the oil. Old oil has lost much of its ability to coat and protect engine components, which could lead to damage down the

road. Most people avoid changing the oil in their lawn mower because they think about having to tip the mower over to drain the old oil. They worry about spills in the driveway and a mess of rags and cardboard to catch spills. Oil removal kits make the process easier and a lot less messy. For example, the Briggs & Stratton 1.6-liter oil extractor pump has a long-reach hose so oil can be extracted through filler or dipstick holes. It is important to return and recycle used oil at the proper collection center in your community.

• Clean your mower.

Brush or hose off leaves, grass and mud. Gently tip your walk-behind mower on its side to spray the underbody. If debris is caught on the blade, use a stick or tool to remove it—never use your hands.

• Use a fuel stabilizer.

Never store your lawn equipment with a partially full fuel tank. Either run the equipment out of fuel or use fuel stabilizer in a full tank of fuel. Add Advanced Formula Fuel Treatment and Stabilizer according to the package directions.

Then—and this is important—run the mower for a few minutes so the stabilizer circulates through the carburetor. The stabilizer keeps fuel fresh for up to six months. Turn off the engine and completely fill the gas tank. A full tank will help prevent moisture from condensing in the tank, which can form rust that could break away and clog the carburetor.

• Store your mower in a dry, protected place such as your garage or a garden shed. Never store it next to a furnace, water heater or appliance with a pilot light.

Most carriers deliver papers in their own neighborhoods, and there is no collection of money involved.

To apply for an independent carrier position, you must be at least 11 years of age.

WNY military honored at Russell’s Steaks, Chops & More

By Matthew Ondesko MANAGING EDITOR

During the holiday season, it is easy sometime to just think about yourself and your family. The hustle and bustle of this time of year normally has something to do with that.

So, when someone takes the time do something nice for others, it makes the holidays that much more special.

Russell Salvatore didn’t need to go out of his way Sunday night to put on a special dinner at Russell’s Steaks, Chops & More. He wanted to.

Salvatore hosted 18 young men and women, and their families, in a show of appreciation for their dedication and service to the United States. All the young men and women that were honored are attending West Point, the Naval Academy and the Air Force Academy.

“To me it feels great,” said Salvatore, before the reception started. I feel very, very proud to do this. The entire staff feels very proud.

It shows that we have fine young people growing up in the United States.”

The event had all the young men and women from Western New York dress up in their dress uniforms. It started off with a reception at 5:30 p.m. before dinner at 7 p.m. During the reception, it gave these young individuals a chance to catch up with friends and family.

After the reception, all the Cadets and Midshipmen where introduced one by one before into the dining room. From there a prayer was given, followed by a toast.

The generosity given by Salvatore and his staff was not lost on the Cadets from West Point. Williamsville South High School gradu-

Russell Salvatore stands the young men and women from the United States Military Academy West Point, Naval Academy and Air Force Academy ate Maria Manna said she was able to talk to Salvatore during the reception and thanked him for everything he did for them.

“We our so appreciative

of it [the dinner],” stated Manna. “He [Mr. Salvatore] is so generous to do this.

He was enjoying himself, I think. “ Giving back to the com-

munity is nothing new for Salvatore. For years he has helped out the Western New York community in different ways. This was just one more thing he wanted to do

for those young men and women who chose to attend one of the academies and fight and defend the country from different acts of war.

“It feels great,” stated Salvatore. “It always feels

great to give back to anyone who served our country. We did everything we could for them. It feels good. They are great looking young men and women.”

Local sports Lessons learned for Nardin Gators after loss to Sacred Heart

By Dave Ricci SPORTS REPORTER

There are no such things as losses. Only lessons learned.

That’s what the Nardin basketball team tried to keep in mind after it walked off the court following a 61-49 loss to Sacred Heart in the championship game of the Art Dobson Memorial Tournament that was held Dec. 26-27 at Sacred Heart.

“I think they way the kids stuck in there, they never gave up,” said Nardin coach Jack Coppola.

“Everything we do we have to do a little bit better, and they know that. We can block out better. We can make sure they don’t get open looks better.

We’ve just got to keep getting

better in all we’re doing to compete against a great team like that.”

The Gators did in fact compete hard on both nights and they more than hung with the host Sharks. Rachel Favre (17 points) hit two of her five 3-pointers to help Nardin take an 18-16 lead after one quarter.

But a strong inside game from Sarah Young (18 points) would help the Sharks score 15 points in each of the next three quarters to eventually notch the win.

“We lost to Sacred Heart now,” said Rachel Favre. “So in our league game, we’ll really want to win.”

Though they didn’t walk away with the championship, DAN HICKLING the Gators did take pride in the positives. Most importantly, The Nardin Gators rebounded from a loss to the mental toughness they showed as a group when they Sacred Heart by beating Mount St. Mary. defeated Mt. St. Mary 52-45 in double OT. “The double overtime really hyped and kind of ‘wanting’this to come out on top (tonight).” threw us,” said Favre. “But I because we worked so hard in Even though the Thunder think coming off of that we were the double overtime we wanted was able to sink four free

throws in the final 30 seconds of regulation to force the overtime, the Gators showed great composure as a team and did not unravel.

“They had four foul shots and they tied us. But the kids didn’t hang their heads,” said Coppola. “They made mistakes, we were behind early in the game.

That’s what I like. If they make mistakes or if they get behind they stay positive and that’s all you can ask.”

Senior Leah Bellitto also had a good tournament, notching 22 points in the win over Mt. St. Mary and 18 against Sacred Heart.

Senior Alyssa Lesakowski (12 points against Sacred Heart) also turned in a strong performance on both nights, especially against the Thunder when her defense was lights out.

Blossoming into one of the league’s top scoring threats last season, Lesakowski’s overall game continues to grow by leaps and bounds. Her defen-

sive game is much improved and she does all of the little things that don’t always show up on the score sheet.

Having lost three straight to Nardin last season, including in the semifinals of the MMAA playoffs, there is no doubt Sharks coach Sister Maria Pares used last year’s results to fire her team up.

But Coppola said that with it being a new year, both teams were new and different. He felt the game boiled down to the simplicity of Sacred Heart being a very good team that executed its game plan well.

“It’s tough when you play a team that’s so disciplined. Sister has them so disciplined,” said Coppola. “There’s really not a lot you can do except do the fundamentals extremely well.”

Nardin also received strong play from sophomore Abby Adams, junior Bella LaMartina and senior Lauren Wischerath, who will all be important pieces of the puzzle as the season continues.

Buff Sem bowlers atop MMAA standings early this season

By Dave Ricci SPORTS REPORTER

And the Red-Tailed Hawks just keep rolling along.

As the calendar rolls into 2015, the Buffalo Seminary bowling team keeps rolling along as they stand atop the

Monsignor Martin Athletic Association standings with an 18-3 mark.

While coaches Jim and Edi Dref aren’t trying to get too far ahead of themselves or put too much pressure on the team, they feel that the girls are on target to fulfilling expectations.

“I thought that we would do well,” said assistant coach Edi Dref. “I didn’t know that we would be in first.”

Timing appears to also be on Buff Sem’s side as not only is their team clicking, but league power house Immaculata has graduated a sizable amount of

seniors, which has made the league much more wide open than in years past.

Last season, after being near the top of the standings and challenging Immaculata for the regular season title, Sem’s star bowler Megan Mazurkiewicz sustained a hip injury late in the season. Going into All-Catholics without their star bowler resulted in the Red-Tailed Hawks dropping to a fifth place finish.

Now, with Mazurkiewicz back, and a strong cast around her, Buffalo Seminary is ready to make an even stronger push

for the MMAA playoff championship this season.

Mazurkiewicz, a senior captain and All-Catholic first teamer last year, came to Buff Sem after Holy Angels Academy closed.

Currently sporting a 180 average, Mazurkiewicz is proving her worth every day as the Hawks’ top bowler and team leader.

“She’s a role model for the freshmen,” said Dref. “We also coach the golf team at Buff Sem and Megan had never golfed before and she decided to take it up this year.

She stepped up to the plate. She was our starting golfer. She’s very athletic. She was a great role model there and I think some of the girls might have joined bowling because of her.

They’re freshmen and they really look up to her. They’re just in awe when they see her bowl. We could be down a little bit and it’ll be up to Megan to throw two or three strikes and she’ll just do it. She’s solid.”

Mazurkiewicz rolled a 194 high game and 502 series to help set the tone for Buff Sem’s 3-0 win over Nardin on Dec. 18.

While Mazurkiewicz is clearly among the elite in WNY and a big reason the Red-Tailed Hawks are doing so well, the team is by no means a one-girl show.

Fellow seniors Jiahui (Christy) Jiang and Yiyang Li have both been bowling consistently in the 145 to 150 range.

Dref added that youngsters Jeanna Al-Naji and freshmen Shelby Kmidowski and Katherine Kraft, who are averaging in the 130s, have also shown steady improvement and a great deal of promise.
