On March 30, residents approved Cazenovia Central School District’s proposed Phase II Capital Project, which involves modifying the physical education, athletics, and community facilities at the Emory Avenue Complex to include a multi-purpose sports stadium and synthetic turf fields.

Turf, stadium plan moves forward Voters approve Phase II Capital Project By kate Hill Staff Writer On March 30, more than two thousand residents of the Cazenovia Central School District (CCSD) flocked to the polls to cast their votes on the district’s $10,713,319 Phase II Capital Project.

According to the district, the project is intended to address equity, infrastructure and program needs outside the school buildings by modifying the physical education (PE), sports, and community facilities at the Emory Avenue Complex.

“In a small community such as ours, there is arguably no greater resource than a strong school district,” said CCSD Board of Education President Dave Mehlbaum.

“Maintaining and modernizing our school facilities is essential to our mission. This project will provide current and future students with adequate facilities for PE and extracurriculars at our main Emory Avenue campus. We are grateful for the support of the community, and it is important that our students get to see it for themselves, as this project is all about the kids.”

According to the district’s plan, the Buckley-Volo Stadium field will be transformed into a multi-purpose, synthetic turf field to be used by the PE programs and multiple girls’ and boys’ teams, including field hockey, football, lacrosse, and soccer

(up to 225 ft. x 360 ft.). The stadium will also be outfitted for track and field events.

The Upper Field, located behind the stadium, will be modified into a multi-purpose, synthetic turf field that will be used for PE classes, team practices, and competitions. In addition to modified baseball and softball, the upper field will also be marked for field hockey, football, lacrosse, and soccer (up to 190 ft. x360 ft.).

“The project is a wonderful opportunity for our kids that will provide physical education spaces to 900 kids a day,” said CCSD Superintendent Christopher DiFulvio. “The project will allow our kids to play and practice right on campus. One of the most exciting parts for kids is the ADA compliance that will provide access for all our students.”

CCSD plans to cover most of the project costs using a combination of available State Building Aid (estimated $4,188,192) and $2,410,325 from the district’s capital reserve fund, which is designated for capital improvements.

The remaining “local share” ($4,114,802) would be financed through the local tax levy. The estimated average annual increase for taxpayers is $39.54 per $100,000 full assessed home value.

Since its introduction, the proposition — particularly the artificial turf aspect of the project — has been a hotly debated

topic, with community members expressing apprehensions regarding the safety of the proposed playing surfaces, the cost of the project, the environmental impacts, the maintenance and life-expectancy of the turf, and the potential for future stadium lighting.

Residents voiced their concerns to the district during two public information sessions and a series of four town halls held in Cazenovia, New Woodstock, Fenner, and Nelson.

Ultimately, the proposition was approved by a vote of 1,189 to 1,102.

“I, as well as all the district residents that have contacted me after the vote, were extremely disappointed in the results, especially since the voters were basically evenly Turf l Page 16

School news: High school student collects supplies for home country of Ukraine.

On April 4, the Village of Cazenovia Board of Trustees accepted bids from two contractors for the next phase of work on Lakeland Park’s historic stone wall.

The village has already completed two phases of repairs on the park’s approximately 150-year-old canal wall. According to Village Mayor Kurt Wheeler, two additional phases are still required. “[This next phase will go from] where we left off on the canal wall all the way around to the corner past the swimming area where we restored [the wall] several years ago,” Wheeler said.

The board unanimously voted to accept a $1,022,500 work bid from Expert Building Services, of Cazenovia, to replace the existing stone wall with a poured concrete wall covered with a historic stone veneer.

The board also accepted a bid of $128,948.32 from River Rock Dock, of Chittenango, to provide the cofferdams, which are enclosures built within a body of water to allow the enclosed area to be pumped out to create a dry working environment.

According to Wheeler, Expert Building Services and River Rock Dock submitted the only bids for the two aspects of the project. “[When we did] the first phase of the canal wall, [the] dewatering was just a constant nightmare,” said Wheeler. “Now that we have done another phase, we have really gotten it down to a science. The nice thing is that the same people who did the previous phases and worked together are the successful bidders for this phase, which is, of course, why they wanted to bid on it; they knew exactly what they were getting into. . . Both companies are extremely professional.”

Phase IV of the project, which will likely begin next year, involves repairs to the pier.

“That was not as urgent,” explained Wheeler. “It does need some work, but it is not [about] to collapse or anything.”

The mayor noted that the village is continuing to work with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to expedite the permitting process so that the work in the swim area can be completed before the summer swim season.

“The people at the DEC have been extremely cooperative,” he said. “Obviously, they can’t promise a specific date, but that should be [ready to go] in the near future.

It’s kind of top of their list right now, and they are very aware of our timetable and the public benefit of getting an early start.”

The hope is to complete the wall that is not near the swim area later in the summer.

“We could potentially have to adjust that based on permitting, but that’s what we are asking for,” said Wheeler.

The village plans to apply all its American Rescue Plan funds to the project and bond for the remainder of the cost.

In other news

The board held a public hearing regarding its 2022-2023 Tentative Village Budget, which totals $3,265,018.61.

According to Wheeler, one of the bigticket items included in the budget is the purchase of a ladder truck for the Cazenovia Fire Department.

High school student collects supplies for home country of Ukraine By kate Hill Staff Writer

To support her home country of Ukraine, Cazenovia High School sophomore Khrystyna Barna has been volunteering once a week to collect food and supplies for the victims of the Russian invasion and Ukraine’s military.

On Sundays, from 2 to 6 p.m., Barna and her father, Serhii Barna, are collecting donations at Lakeland Park. The pair is also occasionally assisted by Barna’s uncle Serhiy Yavorskiy.

“We are willing to send medical [supplies], personal hygiene products, canned food, snacks, clothes, dry foods, baby clothes and baby food, shoes, etc.,” Barna said.

“We are helping people who came under fire and lost their homes and had to leave Eastern Ukraine for the Western part of Ukraine. With the money from the donations, we are

buying and sending body armor from Europe for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. . . Food and clothes are sent by the ocean in containers, [and medical] supplies are sent by airlines.”

Barna was born in Ternopil, Ukraine, where she spent the first 12 years of her life.

According to Barna, she and her family to the United States in 2019 in search of a better, more secure life.

“With that being said, I must say that since the first day in the U.S. we were more Ukrainian than ever before,” she said. “We are currently going to Ukrainian church, me and my brother are attending Saturday Ukrainian school in Syracuse, [and] we are visiting all the Ukrainian programs, events, and festivals. Ukrainian culture, music, and clothes are very popular in Syracuse’s community, which makes me happy to be who I am — a Ukrainian.”

Barna’s grandparents on both sides remain in Ukraine along with her cousins and her father’s sister and her husband.

In addition to encouraging donations of food and supplies, Barna is also asking the Cazenovia community to consider supporting Ukraine via a charitable foundation set up by famed Ukrainian

UCAN announces Earth Week ‘Trash to Treasure’ competition By kate Hill Staff Writer

As part of its Earth Week 2022 celebration (April 1824), the United Climate Action Network (UCAN) is inviting local inventors, tinkerers, artists, and other interested individuals to participate in a “Trash to Treasure” up-cycling/repurposing competition.

Competitors will be challenged to transform household items that might otherwise end up in the garbage or recycling bin into useful tools, toys, works of art, or treasures.

The “reinvented junk” submissions can be delivered to Carpenters Barn at Lakeland Park on April 21 at 7 p.m. or April 22 at 1 p.m. All the creations will be displayed in the barn on Friday April 22, from 1 to 7 p.m. They will also be featured on the UCAN website.

According to event coordinator Nancy Paolozzi,

who sits on the UCAN Plastics and Recycling Task force, the purpose of the competition is to bring awareness to the amount of trash that winds up in landfills, on roadways, and in streams.

“Ideally, it would be best if we could reduce the amount of trash we create,” she said. “We thought it would be a fun activity for people to think about ways they could actually re-purpose their refuse [to] replace another item that would otherwise be [purchased].”

A panel of three judges will award first, second, and third place prizes — $100, $75, and $50 in Caz Bucks — based on functionality, creativity, and percentage of re-purposed items.

On March 30, Paolozzi reported that Cazenovia College Biology and Environmental Biology Program Director Thad Yorks and Nazareth College graphic artist Annika Goeller had

already committed to serving on the panel.

“We are hoping the third [judge] will be one of the high school teachers,” she added.

There are no age restrictions or limitations on the number of submissions.

However, all entries must include repurposed objects, trash, and/or recyclables.

To participate, send an email to unitedclimateactionnet@gmail.com with “Competition” in the subject line and your name, contact information, and a brief description of your submission (including size for display purposes) in the text. If the entry is too large to display, provide a photo.

UCAN is a grassroots organization that advocates for environmentally sustainable policies and actions in New York’s 22nd Congressional District.

The group also engages with businesses, schools, and other local community organizations to advance

environmental literacy and sustainable practices.

This year, UCAN will be celebrating Earth Week with more than two dozen other local groups, including Scout Troop 18, Cazenovia Heritage, Cazenovia Garden Club, Cazenovia Lake Association, Cazenovia Preservation Foundation, Cazenovia Public Library, Cazenovia Rotary Club, Village of Cazenovia Tree Commission, Greater Cazenovia Area Chamber of Commerce, Madison County Chapter of Trout Unlimited, Madison County Department of Solid Waste, New Woodstock Free Library, Project Café,

Rabies clinics begin this month

The Madison County Health Department’s Rabies Vaccination Clinics begin this year on Saturday, April 23 from 10 to 1 p.m. at the Madison County Highway Garage at 139 N. Court St. in Wampsville.

Rabies clinics are outdoors and participants may either drive or walkthru. Appointments are required.

Madison County residents may schedule their pet’s appointment online at healthymadisoncounty.org.

Pets will not be vaccinated without an appointment.

Pets must be properly restrained using a leash and collar, harness, cage or pet carrier.

Vaccinations are free to Madison County residents.

Voluntary donations of $5 per pet are appreciated to help defray clinic costs. Proof of previous vaccination is required to qualify for a three-year certificate. Proof of previous vaccination may be shown at the clinic or submitted by mail or fax five days after the

clinic.

Participants will receive their pet’s rabies certificates by email.

Public health law requires all dogs, cats and ferrets to be vaccinated by 4 months of age. A second vaccination must be given

within one year of the first, and pets must be actively immunized against rabies thereafter.

This typically requires a booster vaccination every three years for dogs and cats, and annually for ferrets.

“We will continue to seek outside assistance for that,” Wheeler said. “We were able to push back what will be the first bond payment on the wall repair — that’s our other big-ticket item coming up this year — into the next fiscal year, which gave us a little bit of breathing room. It would have been a really tough budget cycle if we had to include both of those things.”

The board also scheduled a special meeting for April 14 at 7 p.m. to conduct a public hearing regarding a proposed local law authorizing the village to exceed the New York State property tax cap, if necessary.

The NYS tax cap law limits the annual growth of property taxes levied by local governments and school districts to two percent or the rate of inflation, whichever is less.

“Even though in layman’s terms we stick to that two percent, the actual calculation of what constitutes two percent is [very complex],” said Wheeler.” So, in the event that we might inadvertently exceed the tax cap, we always authorize ourselves to do so rather than think we are being good and [end up] in hot water because we weren’t.”

According to Wheeler, the board plans to review and approve the Tentative Village Budget following the April 14 public hearing.

The public hearing on the budget will remain open until the special meeting.

The tentative budget (revenues and expenditures) is available for viewing on the village website.

The Village of Cazenovia Board of Trustees meets on the first Monday of each month at 7 p.m. in the Village Municipal Building, 90 Albany Street.

OBITUARIES John E. Libby, 91

Albert Kouba, 89

Former Cazenovia Town Justice John E. Libby, 91, of New Woodstock, passed away peacefully Wednesday, March 30, 2022, at home with his family by his side.

John was born Jan. 15, 1931, in Hyannis, Cape Cod, MA, to Charles and Grace Libby and was a graduate of Barnstable High School.

John earned his bachelor’s degree in agriculture from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst and his master’s degree in corporate real estate. He was a first lieutenJohn E. Libby ant in the U.S. Army and upon his honorable discharge in 1955, John served in the Army Reserves as a commissioned officer until 1961. He retired from Agway in DeWitt as the director of corporate real estate and had been the Orleans County assessment coordinator for several years. John was the town justice for the town of Cazenovia from 1972 until 1991 and a New York state small claims magistrate. He was a member of the NYS Magistrates Association, the NYS Assessors Association, the International Association of Assessing Officers and a charter member of Cherry Valley Carriage Association. John was also a 4-H leader, a member of the New Woodstock Malcolm Taylor American Legion and a board member of the New Woodstock Cemetery Association. His favorite place to be was on his tractor making hay.

John is survived by his children, Bonnie (Dean) Slocum of Cazenovia, Kathleen (Chip) Pratt of New Woodstock and John C. (Mary) Libby of Windham, ME; his grandchildren, Amanda Slocum, Travis (Jackie) Slocum, Terry (Kristin) Pratt, Andrea (John) Lehmann, Jason Libby and Amos Libby; his great-grandchildren, Keira Passmore, Dylan and Nicholas Slocum, Milana and Annalie Pratt, Teagan and Raleigh Lehmann, Harbour, Molly and Zealand Libby as well as seven nieces and five nephews. In addition to his parents, John was predeceased by his wife of 65 years, Irene; his sisters Jane Holmes and Cynthia Sedlacek and by his brother, David Libby.

There are no calling hours. Private graveside services will be held in New Woodstock Cemetery. To leave a message of sympathy for the Libby family, please visit michaelebrownfuneralservices.com.

Retired school superintendent, Korean War veteran Albert “Al” Kouba passed away unexpectedly on Feb. 4, 2022, at the age of 89 at his residence in York, PA. Whether you knew him as a friend, a colleague, a teacher, a family member, a fellow church goer or a poker buddy, you would not be surprised to know that he remained charming, affable and generous till the end.

Born in Bergen County, New Jersey, in 1932, Al moved to Glens Falls, N.Y., where he attended school and participated in all things sports related.

Al was prolific in skiing; both on the snow and in the water.

After graduating High School, Al enlisted in the Army and served overseas in Japan during the Korean War. Upon his return he obtained his bachelor’s degree from SUNY Albany.

While in college, he met Mary Gavan. Al and Mary were married in 1960. They resided in Glen Ridge, NJ, and Al attended graduate school at Columbia University Teachers’ College.

Al and Mary moved to Fayetteville in 1965, where Al spent many years working

for the Fayetteville Manlius School District as a vice principal, principal, and assistant superintendent.

He eventually took a position as the school superintendent of the Vernon Verona Sherrill School District, and retired from that position in 1992.

In 1997, Al and Mary left New York for a long anticipated life of golf, poker, real estate sharp-shooting and car wheeling-and-dealing on their beloved Cape Cod, the place Al would call home for the next 20-odd years, even after Mary’s untimely passing in 2005.

Eventually, though, his love of cars won out, and in 2020 Al left Brewster for a life on the road.

No matter what state you live in east of the Rockies (and he had plans for California next year), you may well have received a surprise visit, or two, or three, from him over the past couple of years. He would stay just long enough to share a meal and some memories, petting your dog throughout, and then he’d be back behind the wheel and gone.

His heart, though, was always firmly planted on Cape Cod, and that is where services were held for him at 10 a.m. on April 2, 2022, at St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church, 61 Canal Road, Orleans, MA 02653, fol-

Albert Kouba lowed by a luncheon at Ocean Edge, 2907 Main St, Brewster, MA 02631.

Al was preceded in death by wife Mary and three brothers Otto, Robert and George. He is survived by his three children M.A. Dailor (Mike), Matthew Kouba, Patricia Arbetman (Steve) and four grandchildren, Jillian, Matthew, Jacob and Arthur. He also leaves behind his companion of 14 years, Nelle Huetigg, and a lovely extended family.

Al’s kids looked forward to meeting everyone in April, perhaps for the first time, perhaps for the thousandth and sharing shaggy dog stories (his favorite kind) about their Dad. For online condolences, please visit nickersonfunerals. com.

This needs to be protected. Expanding the NCAA Tournament to 68 and putting four games in Dayton to get the festivities underway was okay, but when two of those games involve conference champions, it makes them feel that they really didn’t play in the big show.

Reminiscing about recipes

our voice

T

here was a time in the 1960s and 70s when I thought that I was a good cook. Of course those were the times when gourmet cooking meant using canned soups to thicken your sauces, or as the sauce itself.

You may dispute me, but I have a cookbook, entitled “Gourmet Cooking” that includes a recipe for pork chops slathered in a sauce make from tomato soup and Worcestershire sauce. Just typing that makes me shiver.

This was also the era of Jello-based salads and desserts.

Some of us remember the seductive commercials that had Sterling Holloways’ voice enticing you into wanting layers of Jello, molded Jello , blocks of Jello or a mousse created from Jello and whipped topping that came in a box. More shivers…

Of course you could match Jello commercials with Ed Herlihy’s velvet invitation to dishes made with Kraft cheeses that made Velveeta into a tantalizing all-purpose cheese substitute. Remember the famous dip created by mixing melted Velveeta and a can of diced tomatoes with chilies?

To be totally transparent, I do have Jello in my pantry.

My grandsons love it and, last summer, I resurrected a Jello fruit salad from a recipe that my neighbor gave me when we moved into this house a zillion years ago.

So, here I am, brought to the sense that I am not an especially good cook. Ok, there are few items that I am not ashamed to serve my family and friends, but I no longer am enticed by the need to excel at recipes that are novel, exciting and require odd ingredients. The challenge of shiny magazines or the luscious offerings of Food TV

Poison prevention

According to poisonhelp.hrsa.gov, in 1961, Congress established National Poison Prevention Week to raise awareness, reduce unintentional poisonings, and promote poison prevention.

The website goes on to say that this effort is sponsored by the National Poison Prevention Week Council.

Each year, the council holds a children’s artwork contest to raise awareness about poisons.

Additionally, poison centers across the country conduct activities to raise awareness of the dangers of poisoning.

While this week is officially acknowledged as the third week in March, it is an issue that is not limited to just a week and is well worth being aware of year round.

President Joe Biden shared some statistics in his proclamation in March.

Biden said each year, more than 2 million poisoning cases are reported in the United States — some of which are tragically fatal, but many of which are preventable.

While we have made great strides in the decades since National Poison Prevention Week was first observed 60 years ago — including a decline in unintentional poisoning — poisoning remains a risk, especially for children and older Americans, Biden said.

During National Poison Prevention Week, we raise awareness about the dangers posed by poisonous substances, precautions people can take to prevent an incident, and how to respond in a poison emergency, Biden said.

His proclamation said each year, an average of 31 children die from unintended poisonings at home, and an estimated 75,000 children under the age of five end up in hospital emergency departments from poisoning. Approximately 85 percent of unintentional poisonings take place in the home where medicines and harmful chemicals are stored.

The president said to help prevent children from unintentionally ingesting poisonous household products, it is important to keep these products out of their sight and beyond their reach.

Items such as hand sanitizer, laundry detergent, medications, coin cell batteries, cleaning products, and liquid nicotine should be stored in child-resistant packaging.

Medications should be safely secured, and if unused, properly discarded. For elderly Americans — particularly those who may have become isolated due to the pandemic — it is important that household products are secured in their original packaging and that medications are clearly labeled to avoid accidental ingestion or the mistaking of medications, Biden said.

The disposal of prescriptions and other medications is an area that can be of particular concern.

While it is recommended that medications be taken until finished unless otherwise advised by a medical professional, it is not uncommon for medications to be leftover and it is difficult to know what to do with these as they should not simply be thrown out of washed down the drain.

In some communities police stations or other locations have drop boxes that allow for medications and other substances to be dropped off anonymously.

In some instances pharmacies like Kinney Drugs have established disposal locations.

Coinciding with prevention week, Kinney announced it will offer kiosks to dispose of unneeded medications, including leftover and expired medications.

The kiosks accept prescription and over-thecounter medications for both humans and pets, including controlled substances.

The kiosks are not for disposal of sharps/needles (including EpiPens), medical/biohazardous waste, regular or hazardous household trash, or personal care products.

The president went on to say healthcare professionals work around the clock addressing poisonings and he said that if anyone suspects a poisoning to call the Poison Control Help line at 1-800-222-1222. For more information, go to poisonhelp.hrsa.gov.

Biden said raising awareness is crucial to saving lives and these resources can help people learn more about what they can do to keep themselves and others safe.

Ramblings from the empty nest

Ann Ferro

no longer can induce me to attempt the newest culinary fads.

I do, however, print out recipes from the internet, perhaps too often. I have hundreds of them stashed on a bookcase in the kitchen. I use about 10 of them with some regularity. The rest? Well, it’s one of those “it looked good at the time” things.

I also read and save recipes from a few periodicals, far less these days, since so many of them are now relying on herbs and spices that I don’t have, and I find that most of the stores where I shop don’t have them either. One of these spices, sumac, is derived from sumac shrubs that grow along our roadways, but I also know that there are two kinds of sumac and one can bring all recipe testing and breathing to a close, so I haven’t tried to harvest my own in order to concoct one of the more au courant recipes. I still haven’t figured out what to do with leftover xawaash, a spice that came with one of those pre-prepped meals that are delivered to your door.

By the way, those meals aren’t bad at all. A tad bit on the pricey side, but the few that I purchased were considered to be a mini vacation for me … very mini since I still had to cook and clean up. There I go off subject again.

Yesterday, I received my latest Living magazine in the mail. On page 13 Martha has a picture of the sandwich that she makes using eggs. I, too, make a sandwich that uses eggs.

There are several differences between Martha’s sandwich and

mine. First, she uses eggs from her chickens. I do not have chickens. Five cats is more than I can handle. She bakes a delicate custard for the innards of the sandwich. I boil, peel and mash two eggs mixed with mayo, salt and pepper as the filling. She adds hand-picked water cress while I use whatever green leaf is in the crisper (and is still crisp).

And the bread? I use Heidleberg peasant bread (from Nojaims in Marcellus) She uses Japanese Milk Bread. Are you kidding? Where does one or anyone find Japanese Milk Bread? I know that Nojaim’s doesn’t carry it. Neither does Walmart, Aldi’s, Tops or Wegmans. I can just imagine what that bread costs.

My family and friends will have to be satisfied with the very ordinary, the lost-in-thepast simple comestibles that are reflected in my pantry, which is basically the same as my mother’s - no canned soups, sumac or Japanese Milk Bread.

Of course there is that xawaash. How long is it before you can throw a spice out?

More about Jello … my students should remember this. The product named Jello, a fruit dessert, was created by Pearle Wait in 1897 but the process of using gelatin (don’t ask how it’s made) to solidify liquids was created by Peter Cooper in the 1850s. Mr. Cooper was also the designer of “Tom Thumb,” the first steam locomotive in the U.S., and he ran for President in 1876.

Ann Ferro is a mother, a grandmother and a retired social studies teacher. While still figuring out what she wants to be when she grows up, she lives in Marcellus with lots of books, a spouse and a large orange cat.

FROM THE MAILBAG

Gothic Cottage deserves better than Plan C

To the editor: Cazenovia Heritage appreciates the recent Republican coverage on the future of the Gothic Cottage, a local issue that many of you may have been unaware. To recap, based on feedback at a public meeting in November 2020, the town agreed to develop a new plan for remaining at the Gothic Cottage to reflect that input. This was developed in late spring 2021, called “Plan C.” In August 2021, Cazenovia Heritage approached the town board to consider an alternate plan, and subsequently provided a floor plan, elevations (drawings of the facades), and preliminary costs. The town advised that Cazenovia Heritage would be involved in determining the recommended on-site option. So it was a bit of surprise to read Mr. Zupan stating that the town board has decided to move forward with Plan C as the on-site option. Exactly when that decision was made is unknown, but remarkable that it would be made without the public having seen any elevations or costs.

The location of our town offices for the next 50 years affects everyone in Cazenovia. The preservation of this unique building is a concern for many in Cazenovia. So why not allow the public to weigh in?

Over the past several months, the answer has become obvious. The floor plan of Plan C calls for excessive and permanent alterations and destruction of both the interior spaces and exterior facades, required to accommodate placement of the clerks in the front parlors. Plan C was soundly rejected by the Preservation Association of Central New York (PACNY), citing its “irreversible demolition and alterations” and lack of compliance to preservation standards, among other factors.

In contrast, the Compromise Plan developed

by Cazenovia Heritage has the full support of PACNY in its ability to meet the Secretary of the Interior’s Preservation Standards. The Cazenovia Preservation Foundation (CPF) has called it “superior” to Plan C. With minimal alterations, the Compromise Plan removes high impact, high intensity uses (the clerks) from the most sensitive spaces, ensuring the preservation of the

cottage for generations to come. The approach is similar to that taken in the last Library expansion: In the library, the front parlors are designated for low impact public use. They did not put the circulation desk there, for good preservation reasons.

Not liking or choosing to ignore what it is hearing from preservation professionals, experts, and what the facts and science say, the board is moving ahead with only Plan C as the on-site option. After providing assurances to the contrary, the board is shutting down any consideration of the Compromise Plan at this time. Rather than using this as a community-building opportunity, it is opting for a divisive decision by edict and silencing any other proposals.

As a next step, the town board has announced a public meeting on Plan C and on the offsite location on April 26 (details to be posted on town website). Please come to learn more, invite your neighbors, and don’t worry about public speaking -- there is to be no public discussion allowed.

Disappointing but not surprising

To the editor: The results of the Phase 11 Capital Project vote held on Wednesday was not surprising but disappointing. The message that was sent forth... if you didn’t vote for the synthetic turf project, you were against our children having a safe and well-designed playing field. That message could not be farther from the truth. The fact that not one student athlete or coach stood up and asked the community for a well constructed grass turf speaks to the misinformation that was touted.

Only 2,291 of the possible 10,076 active registered voters came out to vote for this huge Capital Project. Yet with all the Vote YES for Caz campaign efforts, the project passed by only 85 votes. Perhaps a recount of the votes are in order.

From page 6

Concerned about Manlius Town Board leadership

To the editor: In a recent edition of the Eagle Bulletin, there was a story regarding the meeting on the 23rd of March at East Syracuse Minoa High School. This meeting drew over 100 attendees. Many of the attendees spoke in opposition to a change in the town law removing the town planning board from its role in overseeing the installation of a largescale photo-voltaic array. Reasoned, well prepared remarks were presented by Manlius residents some of them being legal and financial based arguments against the town board’s actions. Others being social, view shed and home value arguments against the Bowman Road array next to the Erie Canal.

When I left after a few dozen compelling remarks, I was convinced that the change in the law would at least be delayed pending further review. I was surprised to hear that the meeting went on until 10:30 p.m. at which time a vote was taken, the change in law was approved.

I was then doubly surprised to see that in the same Eagle Bulletin a second story

highlighted a ceremony certifying Manlius as a “Climate Smart Community.” A picture of town board members Katelyn Kriesel, John Deer, Elaine Denton and Heather Waters was included. The New York State DEC Commissioner, Basil Seggos presented the certification.

On that bright and sunny day, right on the heels of a late evening town board session that voted to marginalize the town planning board, there was a glaring absence of any town planning board member. In the meeting on the evening of the 23rd, the chairman of the town planning board Mr. Joe Lupia enumerated in great detail the many solar projects husbanded by his board over the last few years yet, no town planning board member attended the Climate Smart Community event 12 hours later. Was the town planning board invited? Was it invited but declined?

When was the event scheduled?

As an observer, the perception is that the town board had decided the issue well before the meeting and rolled neatly into the accolades of the DEC the next morning. The other take away for this resident is that the people of Manlius will not be well served going forward by a capricious town board and a dysfunctional relationship with the town planning board. It is of course, the town supervisor’s mandate to lead in an inclusive manor ... then lead!

Years Ago

By Cindy Bell Tobey

80 years ago – April 9, 1942

Saturday, the first day of trout season, was a perfect day for the local sportsmen, as the water in the creek wasn’t high and the sky was cloudy so the sun didn’t make shadows on the water.

By 7:30 o’clock 30 fishermen were in the creek between the Chenango Street bridge and Albany Street bridge. During the first hour 27 fish were taken from one hole near Loyster Lodge and thirty-six before night.

As far as we know there weren’t any especially large ones caught, all averaging from eight to 12 inches. Dr. S. H. Raymond, H. P. Aikman, Richard Brault, Robert Stanley Jr., John Hyatt, Lawrence Daley, Harry Reidl and Otwell Bobette all caught the limit, ten fish.

Mrs. A. R. Morrow and Miss Kathryn Morrow each had quite a large catch and William Hill caught seven before opening the American Store Saturday morning.

Walter Aikman got seven and Marshall Norton got eight. All the above, were brown trout caught in Chittenango Creek in or near the village. It is said that since Saturday no one has had very good luck in the creek.

60 years ago – April 5, 1962

Once upon a time I saw an angel born. The time was about 11 o’clock on a February morning, and the place was Erieville, New York.

I pull into the driveway and a dark-haired, pale-faced somebody waves to me from the bow window, her hair moving like wind across her face.

It’s the right house, JoAnn Bastian’s “angel factory.”

Here she fashions figures of dough, angels that grace many a Christmas tree and sometimes watch over a household all year long. We go into her studio where she demonstrates her technique with dough sculpture.

The studio is crowded with evidence of JoAnn’s other endeavors, which are many.

Opening a large portfolio, she reveals illustrations she is doing for a book about animal characters engaged in winger sports.

The cross country skier is a rabbit.

The figure skater is a beaver.

A pair of foxes for a bobsled team.

The downhill skier is a squirrel with a determined air, who contemplates a race. A winner, no doubt.

Jackie Kellish, an eighth-grader in Cazenovia, won the regional spelling bee which was televised on WCNY on March.

Kellish will be one of the students to represent New York State at the national competition in Washington D.C. at the end of May. Kellish beat her last competitor in the eighth round by spelling “Epicurean” correctly.

Then, to clinch the win, she spelled “montage” correctly and was awarded the win.

The first in-classroom bee was written and taken in early January.

Based on this, the top 35 students in the Central New York area then qualify to participate in the regional bee on WCNY. “I’m really excited,” Kellish said. “Last year was a great experience.

It’s not only about spelling but also about other activities, parties and honoring all the spellers who got that far.”

Blackwelll From Page 4 Dance gets one clean shot at the win of a lifetime.

What’s more, a decade’s worth of evidence shows that what seems like relegation to Dayton hasn’t really proven that way for the last team in the field, with sustained runs that includes VCU’s 2011 push and UCLA doing the same last March, almost getting to the title game So it’s great and heartening to see so

many people captivated by what the Saint Peter’s Peacocks did. But it’s just an unlikely few wins by a modest school from Jersey City unless we make absolutely sure such stories can be told every time the music starts in March.

Transparency or Opacity, you be the judge To the editor: After repeated requests to the Manlius town supervisor and the town board regarding financial ties to any solar developer who has proposed a solar generation facility in the town of Manlius, I have not received a direct answer to a simple question. My letter to John Deer was answered by Town Attorney Frateschi with a very carefully worded phrase qualifying his response by stating, “it is my understanding.” The Frateschi letter merely stated that he believed that there was no conflict of interest per state law as reported to him by board members.

Why the necessity to pay an attorney to a respond to a question posed by a town resident? This legalese response alone should trigger suspicion and it suggests a consciousness of guilty. I sent a second letter in a more direct format which has gone unanswered. I had a phone conversation with Mr. Deer and he insists that he has answered my question through a proxy statement from the town attorney and I should expect no further reply.

Could it be that I asked a question that would embarrass a board member or require them to recuse themselves from a critical vote regarding the Bowman Road Solar project? This is the exact wording of the second letter to him on March 18:

April 6, 2022 7 To: John Deer I would like full and transparent disclosure regarding financial, advisory, family, or investment relationships to include but limited to the following entities by all Town Board and Members with any of the following listed entities: Abundant Solar LLC New Source Renewables LLC GreenSpark Solar CVE North America Inc. True Green Capital SolarizeCNY To include all affiliates, subsidiaries, Special Purpose Entities, and Joint Ventures If the Board Member was or is an employee that should be disclosed.

Additionally, I would like full disclosure of connections with any entity or subsidiary or parent that is in any way affiliated with solar developers, beneficial land owners, and/ or equipment suppliers for any of the approved or proposed solar generation facilities in the Town of Manlius in the past six years. Acceptable answers are either No or Yes. If the answer to any affiliation is Yes, I am requesting full disclosure of the nature and extent of the relationship as well as full disclosure of any benefit to the Board member, financial or non-financial including, but not limited to accepting discounts on solar equipment for personal use. Any political donations from these firms or their employees should also be highlighted.

Cornell in the community: Dairy education Submitted by Patty Catalano Cornell Cooperative Extension Madison County

In the spring of 2021 Cornell Cooperative Extension of Madison County was awarded a grant from New York Agriculture in the Classroom to integrate dairy education into our county’s schools. The generous grant allowed us to facilitate classroom lessons to fifth graders across Madison County from May to September 2021. In 2021, we reached over 1,400 students with six different dairy education lessons including, “It’s a Moo-stery” and “Cow to Cone – Virtual Field Trip”. We were also able to provide a different dairy product to accompany each lesson, such as yogurt and string cheese.

We are very excited to announce that we have been awarded this grant for the second year in a row and are continuing dairy education in our schools for 2022!

The project was made possible by the support of New York State’s dairy farmers and the Dairy Promotion Order funding. According to the American Dairy Association of the Northeast, New York ranks 4th in overall dairy production in the United States, producing 15.3 billion pounds of milk each year. In New York, the total economic impact of dairy is $39.6 billion each year, making it an important topic for youth to learn about.

This interactive program will continue to feature lessons ranging from virtual

field trips to dairy farms and the tasting of dairy products, to educational games and activities using the National Agriculture in the Classroom curriculum. These programs will not only be engaging and hands-on, but they will provide a unique learning experience that students will remember and feel a connection to for years to come.

“As we face a rapidly growing world population, we know that students sitting in our classrooms today will be needed to solve our world food problems of tomorrow, and this project will expose them to the opportunities for exciting and innovative careers in agriculture.”, says New York Agriculture in the Classroom Director, Katie Carpenter. Currently, New York Agriculture in the Classroom provides high-quality programming to Pre-K-12 teachers in every corner of the state, with a current reach of over 18,000 teachers and 460,000 students. Stay tuned in the coming months for examples of these programs in and out of schools in Madison County!

For more information on what we are doing, check us out on Facebook at CCE Madison County and Madison County NY 4-H, or visit our website at madisoncountycce.org.

Do you know your “Golf Numbers”?

Unfortunately, I don’t believe most amateur golfers (80%) know their “GOLF NUMBERS”.

Furthermore, I don’t believe they even care.

They still play and spend there money buying golf products. Without them, the golf industry would be in big trouble.

I believe every golfer in America should know their “golf numbers”? Why? Because they could save hundreds of dollars a year for; the golf clubs you buy, the type of golf ball you buy, which golf courses you play, the golf shoes you wear, the golf attire you wear and could improve your golf scores significantly…should you decide to become the best player you can be. How do you find out what your golf numbers are?

Step # 1…Find a Certified Club Fitter or CNY PGA Teaching Professional in your area.

Step # 2…Make an appointment.

Step # 3…Accept your “Golf Numbers” as a guide and use them throughout the year when buying your golf clubs, balls and accessories.

GOLF.com’s sister company is True Spec Golf. They use a chart they call “Launch Monitor Preferred Parameters” that estimates a preferred range for certain swing speeds for your driver and 6 iron. For each swing, there is a recommended range of; spin rates, launch angles, peak heights and angles of decent for you to optimize your golf shots.

YOUR “GOLF NUMBERS” FOR YOUR DRIVER SWING SPEED… * VERY FAST(more than 105MPH,)…

Launch: 10-16degrees…Spin: 17502300(RPM) Peak Height:100-120ft…Angle of Decent: 34-38degrees * FAST (97-104MPH)…Launch:1216degrees…Spin: 2000-2500(RPM)…

Peak height: 70-86 ft…Angle of decent: 34-38degrees * AVERAGE (84-96MPH)…Launch:1316degrees…Spin: 2400-2700(RPM)…

Peak Height: 70-86ft…Angle of Decent: 32-36degrees * SLOWER (72-85MPH)…Launch: 1419degrees…Spin:2600-2900(RPM)…

Peak Height: 57-70ft…Angle of Decent: 31-35degrees * LADIES (less than 72MPH)…Launch: 14-19degrees…Spin: 2600-2900(RPM)…

Peak height: 45-58ft…Angle of Decent: 27-31degrees

Perry Noun is the former executive director of the Northeastern NY PGA as well as a competitive amateur golfer and winner of the New York State Super Senior Amateur Championship.

Perry Noun can be heard on “Tee Time With The Pronoun” on... News Radio 570 WSYR and 106.9FM.

YOUR “GOLF NUMBERS” FOR YOUR 6 IRON SWING SPEED… * VERY FAST (more than 92(MPH)…

Launch: 14-16degrees…Spin: 56006000(RPM) Peak Height: 100-120ft…Angle of Decent:46-50degrees * FAST (84-91MPH)…Launch: 1517degrees…Spin: 5300-5750(RPM)…

PEAK HEIGHT: 87-100ft…Angle of Decent: 43-47degrees * AVERAGE (75-83(MPH)…Launch: 1518degrees…Spin: 5000-5500(RPM)…

Peak Height: 70-86ft…Angle of Decent: 41-45degrees * SLOWER (65-74(MPH)…Launch: 1619degrees…Spin: 4700-5250(RPM)…

Peak Height: 58-70ft…Angle of Decent: 38-42degrees * LADIES (less than 65(MPH)…Launch: 16-19degrees…Spin: 4400-5000(RPM)…

Peak Height: 45-58ft…Angle of Decent: 37-41degrees True Spec Golf says, “Take a look at the numbers but remember not to panic if you are a little higher or lower than the suggested numbers. Ideal spin and launch numbers are going to differ from from one golfer to the next and in a few cases might even find success outside of the normal ranges”.

Ladies and gentlemen, the bottom line is that your “Golf Numbers “ are important and any numbers well outside the suggested numbers from True Spec Golf means you have problems with your swing and should seek help from one of our CNY PGA Teaching Professionals. If you take the time to understand the meaning of the numbers, you will also understand how your new knowledge can help you save money when you buy golf products that “fit your swing speed”. Show your Certified Club Fitter the chart from True Spec Golf above and ask for his feed back.

For more information about the Tenebrae Service or other Easter Season celebrations, contact the First Presbyterian Church of Cazenovia at 315-655-3191 or visit our website at cazpres.org.

There is no charge to attend. The event is open to the public, as well as to students and staff of the college, and all are invited and encouraged to attend.

These monthly storytelling chats are one of the activities coordinated by college consultant Innovation Collective as a way to spark entrepreneurial discussions and activity locally.

The speakers will discuss how they began their ventures, some of the triumphs and failures experienced along the way, lessons learned, wisdom gained, and their visions for the future.

Kate Brodock is founding partner of W Fund, a venture capital firm that invests in tech startups led by underrepresented individuals.

She is also chief executive officer of Switch, a global ecosystem working to shape the future of the global innovation economy.

Local Democrats attend state convention

Local members of the New York State Democratic Committee attended the 2022 Democratic State Nominating Convention, Feb. 16–17, in New York City.

Roger Saltman, a large animal veterinarian from Cazenovia, and Margaret Milman-Barris, a geologist and former supervisor from Oneida, are the current New York State Democratic Committee members from Madison County who traveled to the convention.

Liz Moran, a small business owner and former town supervisor from Cazenovia, is chair of the Madison County Democratic Committee and has ex officio status on the state committee as well. They participated in the voting on New York State Democratic Committee endorsements for governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general, state comptroller, and U.S. Senate.

Madison County’s members are part of the New York Democratic Rural Conference, a group of committee members from rural counties that was formed to speak to candidates and elected officials with a combined voice on behalf of the concerns of rural New Yorkers.

He founded Audioptix Gaming and now the Rome, New York firm offers everything from photography to coaching to streaming services for the billion-dollar esports industry.

He earned his bachelor of science degree in digital cinematography from Full Sail University as valedictorian of his class in 2016.

Anna Richards founded 2020 Consulting while a graduate student and working at Cornell University.

The firm now consists of seven accounting, financial, and business startup analysts and

Prior to the vote, Saltman and Milman-Barris participated in the Democratic Rural Conference caucus meeting, had the opportunity to interact with other committee members from across the state, and attended a reception hosted by Attorney General Letitia James.

“I am excited to be part of the upstate delegation to the State Nominating Convention,” Milman-Barris said. “My priority here was to advocate for candidates who will address the concerns of upstate and rural communities, especially the City of Oneida and Madison County, while holding firm to the Democratic Party values of fairness and an equal chance at prosperity for all.”

To learn more about the convention, the state committee, or the local county committee, registered Democrats are encouraged to contact Madison County Democratic Chair Liz Moran at liz. coronado.moran@gmail.com or visit the committee website at madisonconydems. com.

She later obtained a master’s degree in business management from both Cornell University and Queen’s University.

She was named one of the inaugural 10 Under 10 Notable Alumni by the alumni council of Cornell’s SC Johnson College of Business.

Fireside Chats are designed to generate storytelling and inspiration.

They are meant to pro-

vide a message of hope and encouragement and reframe the narrative by making innovation and creation feel accessible.

The speakers will answer questions about their life’s journey and talk about their vulnerable moments of triumph, failure, vision, and wisdom.

Cazenovia College sponsors the fireside chats, coffee and concept meetings, and other activities coordinated by Innovation Collective to bring innovation and entrepreneurship topics and discussions to the campus and the greater community.

Boys track set to start 2022 season

by Mike Millson

T

he 2022 Cazenovia varsity boys outdoor track and Field team would begin to build upon a successful 2021 season this Tuesday when it opens at Skaneateles.

Led by head coach Mark Evans (ninth year), assistant coach Mark Tugaw (15th year), assistant coach Dan Buddie (third year) and team captain Andrew Kent; the Lakers have built a tremendously successful program, winning Section III titles every year since 2018, except for 2020, when COVID-19 canceled spring sports Expectations will be high again this year due to a very strong senior core that includes sectional champions Kent (200, meters, 400 meters, 4x400), Cooper Hughes (800, 4x800), Dan Millson (4x400, 4x800), Cassidy Gilmore (4x800), Andrew Lee (4x100), and Thomas Insel (4x400).

This is in addition to top sectional competitors Michael Senehi (3,200 meters, steeplechase) and Elijah Clement (discus).

Quinn Smith will also be back from an injury that cut short a promising 2021 season Other key contributors are expected to be juniors J.D. Dolly (sprints), J.P. Hoak (sprints), Dylan Shepard (hurdles), Will Austin (distance), and Sam Willcox (pole vault).

More names to look out for include sophomore Connor Frisbee (high jump, long jump, triple jump); and newcomers

Boys lax gets 18-3 win over Cortland

by Phil Blackwell

PEP TALK: Cazenovia boys track and field head coach Mark Evans talks to his athletes before an early-season practice session. The Lakers have its first meet of 2022 at Skaneateles early this week.

Jaden Kaplan,Wyatt Scott (both freshmen), Braydon McCole (junior) and Braydon Weismore (sophomore), to name a few.

Evans said the team’s remarkable recent success is due to the athletes’ work ethic and willingness to make sacrifices for the team, such as running tough events like the 400 hurdles or steeplechase.

Coaches and athletes have focused on team success, with the goal for everyone on the team to feel equally important. Meaningful, tough practices ensure kids are

well trained and focused on success. The result has been many first team allCNY track and field team selections and many school records broken over the past eight years Evans’ goals for the season are to develop young men while having every athlete improve every day and every week. The Lakers want to win all of its dual meets, qualify more athletes for sectionals than any other Class B-2 team, have fun., work hard, and teach humility and other character traits like honesty and resiliency.

WARM UP THE ARM: Cazenovia boys track and field thrower Elijah Clement works on his discus technique during an early-season practice session.

A memorable week in Cazenovia High School athletics concluded with, among other things, the emphatic return of the boys varsity lacrosse to regularseason action.

Having only gone 5-8 a season ago, Cazenovia was already determined, in 2022, to at least return to contending form, even if it might not resemble the state championship sides of a decade earlier.

For its opener last Saturday afternoon, the Lakers paid a visit to Cortland, where with a superb allaround effort it blasted its way to an 18-3 victory over the Purple Tigers.

Wasting little time, Cazenovia bolted out to a 6-1 advantage on Cortland by the end of the first quarter and continued to attack long after it had established full control.

At the forefront was Brody Coleman, the senior amassing seven goals to go with a pair of assists as Forrest Ives also was productive, with four goals and one assist.

D.B. Falge stepped up with three goals and three assists as Wyatt Hartley converted twice. James LeFever also had three assists, with single goals earned by Jack Wright and Chris Vecchiarelli.

Three games follow for the Lakers this week, with trips to Chittenango and Central Square followed by a Saturday-afternoon clash against Homer at Cazenovia College’s Christakos Field.

From page 1 divided,” said village resident Elizabeth Koennecke.

“We are mourning the upcoming loss of the quiet enjoyment of our village, we are angry at the excessive cost to the taxpayers, and we are terrified about the ecological implications of all the tire waste that is going to be deposited next to the lake.”

Koennecke added that she is concerned the district will fail to keep its promises related to protecting the lake, such as traffic control, parking and lighting.

On April 1, Cazenovia Town Councilor Kelli Johnson expressed her disappointment regarding the divisiveness that arose in response to the proposal.

“The vote was extremely close,” she said. “It was very unfortunate that this was allowed to become a contentious issue when it could have been an opportunity to build community by engaging voices expected to have concerns from the outset of initial conversations.

Bringing l

different lenses to the table always creates a stronger proposal. An effort by the school to bring people back together while drafting the final details for this project will be appreciated.”

The day after the referendum, DiFulvio thanked all the community members who voted.

“The voter turnout was impressive and spoke to how great our community is,” he said.

CCSD Athletic Administrator Michael Byrnes also recognized the large turnout and thanked the district administration and board of education for developing and supporting the project.

“I truly feel the end results of this referendum vote will now put the students of Cazenovia Central School District and the Cazenovia Laker teams in the best position ever to widely experience the well-known healthy benefits and lifelong lessons that participation in athletics and outdoor physical education provide the mind, body and soul,” he said. “We will now be able to schedule and

According to DiFulvio,

“We hope to submit the
