Sampling the Taste of Ellicottville 2012 by Barbara Kozlowski
Are you ready for the annual Taste of Ellicottville this weekend? It’s time to enjoy the wonderful fare prepared by 17 of Ellicottville’s finest restaurants – in sample size. As you amble between café-style vendors, tempted by the aroma of freshly prepared dishes, you can also enjoy the musical sounds of Bill Todd, EZ3, The Strangers, Susan Rozler and the Tombstone Hands set up in various locations on both days (see schedule page 8). Make it a point to stop in Ellicottville this Saturday, Aug. 11, and Sunday, Aug. 12., 2012, from noon to 4 p.m. to enjoy the varied flavors of this quaint village. Bring your family and friends and safely stroll along sections of Washington and Monroe streets, which are open to pedestrian only this weekend (see map page 8). It’s always a good idea to peruse the menu, pinpoint the items you want to try first and then go back through again to sample more of your favorites. This is a two-day event, so you have plenty of time to try a variety each day. If you love food and love to try new dishes or revisit familiar ones, this is your event. Interviews with some of the participating restaurants revealed mouthwatering details on some of their fare with interesting ingredients. This is just a small sampling of what you have to look forward to this weekend and I doubt anyone will go away hungry. Tips Up’s Pumpkin Ravioli with Brown Sage Butter is a taste I’ve not had the opportunity to try. It’s a ravioli stuffed with pumpkin and served with a brown sage butter made with portabella mushrooms, spinach and red peppers – a dish I’m looking forward to trying. John Harvard’s is offering a Cuban Sandwich Slider, a mini version of their Cuban
Shannon DeCelle for Centurion Cycling.

Recreational Trail: From Potential to Reality Leaders Meet to Begin Planning Process
by Eva Potter
The mental cogs have been turning energetically inside the creative minds of local leaders since the last Ellicottville Town Board meeting in July when board member Ken Hinman brought forth the idea of building a community recreational trail. Now, this potential is quickly moving toward becoming a reality. On Aug. 7, Hinman invited a small group of area leaders and businessmen to discuss and gauge the level of interest in moving forward with such
a trail project. He also asked Joe Higgins, who spearheaded the design, development and construction of the Allegheny River Valley Trail (ARVT) in nearby Allegany, N.Y., to address the group and share his insights. Also in attendance were: Charlie Coolidge, mayor of Ellicottville; Kathleen Moriarty, attorney for the Town of Ellicottville; Dennis Eshbaugh, president of Holiday Valley; Bonnie Koschir, vice president of Holiday Valley; Dave
Riley, general manager of HoliMont; Debbie Stein, director of information technology at HoliMont; Jack Kramer, bicycling enthusiast and member of the Village of Ellicottville Planning Board and Zoning Board; Jennie Acklin, editor of the Ellicottville Times; and Eva Potter, assistant editor of the Ellicottville Times. All expressed a committed interest in seeing this project move forward. Hinman said, “I am so pleased to See Recreational Trail Page 8

World Harmony Runners In Ellicottville Last Thursday, August 2, 2012, World Harmony runners came to Ellicottville, and were hosted by Annie and Mike Widger for an evening of food and friendship. Annie was also honored for her involvement for several years by being awarded the Torch-Bearer Award. As runners have carried the torch around the world invariably they have come into contact with some remarkable people. The award was created to recognize and honor those people who have inspired their nations, their cities, and their communities through their own lives and deeds. The World Harmony Run is a global relay founded by peace leader Sri Chinmoy that seeks to promote international friendship and understanding. As a symbol of harmony, runners carry a flaming torch, passing it from hand to hand travelling through over 100 nations around the globe. The World Harmony Run does not seek to raise money or highlight any political cause, but simply strives to create goodwill among peoples of all nations. To find out more about the World Harmony Run and the progress of the running teams, visit “Live from the road” at www. worldharmonyrun.org.

Checking Out The Tunes & Other Stuff in Ellicottville
play host to a new band for Ellicottville, “The Tombstone Hands”. This three-piece group from Rochester plays a fairly heavy version of Rock & Roll with the emphasis being on instrumentals. A quote from their website says, “ Instrumentals are the backbone of Rock & Roll”. From what we have seen of this group it will be a very interesting afternoon of music in Balloons this Sunday. We now move to Monday beginning in The Gin Mill with their “All U Can Eat Spaghetti Dinner” for only $6.99. “Country Connor, The Crash Dummy” will be on bar duty again this week feeding The Gin Mill’s Sound System with excellent traditional country tunes that will make this wonderful Gin Mill Dinner Special even better. The first music of the new week, “Brews & Bluegrass”, will begin at 6:30 PM Monday in The Ellicottville Brewing Company featuring music by “The Blue Mule Band”. Bluegrass with heart performed in this excellent five-piece band’s interesting way will, for sure, make for a FUN Music Evening in The Ellicottville Brewing Company. Monday rounds out at 10:00 PM Sharp with Madigans Church on Monday. Reverend Jack along with Deacon Dan will be ROCKIN their loyal following with another night of original Honky Tonk to Rock-ABilly tunes done in their FUN and entertaining way. Therefore, another Unique Madigans Music Night will happen. Moving to 8:00 PM Wednesday when The Gin Mill will have Joe Wagner and John Winston doing their neat and traditional folk to southern rock acoustic music show. As we all know, this Gin Mill Tradition of well over twenty years is one of the best and most FUN music nights in Ellicottville and The Gin Mill has it going every Wednesday. Thursday will be a two-band evening. Beginning at 7:00 PM, the final gig of The Gazebo Series, sponsored by Five Star Bank and organized by our Chamber of Commerce will have “Vitamin D” on

Centurion Arrives Cont. From Front Page
“They just heard so much about Ellicottville and all the things we’re doing here and it kind of suited their M.O. (mode of operation). They like to run these events in resort towns. And we’re also close to the Canadian border and we have a lot of Canadian tourists here. So it all kind of makes sense to them,” he said. McFadden said the chamber bought the rights to the event for five years, meaning that the race will be held in Ellicottville for the next five years. He said that the event is a great expense to the chamber, though Holiday Valley helped with “the financial side” for the first year, and noted the Centurion isn’t about benefitting the chamber. “It’s all about bringing folks to town and using the hotels and restaurants and shops and help building the destination,” he said. The Centurion, according to its race director, Tim Hyland, “sort of gives the ‘weekend warrior’ a pro treatment.” “They can ride or race as hard as they want or
as slow as they want, but it doesn’t really matter. No one’s judging them based on their ability level. It’s just an opportunity to see what it would be like to be in a professional race,” he said. Dennis Baldwin, owner of the Ellicottville Bike Shop, said he “generally rides a lot” and participates in a lot of events, such as 100-mile mountain bike races, and that he plans to ride in the Centurion. “I just think it’s a cool local event and it’s a good local event to support and be involved in,” he said. With 500 to more than 1,000 cyclists expected to participate, the Centurion organization relies on police, nutritional, mechanical and medical support to ensure that the event is as safe as possible. “It’s about as safe as you can get if you’re out there participating with hundreds or thousands of people on the roadway,” Hyland said. So many cyclists could mean good business for some Ellicottville lodging areas, too. Jane Eshbaugh, marketing director for
Holiday Valley, said that Centurion cyclists have reserved about 70 lodging units at the Inn at Holiday Valley, the Tamarack Club and Holiday Valley Rental Management so far, and added that she is sure there will be more to come. “Many of the guests are Canadians who have not been to this area before, so that’s great news,” she said. Though she was unable to divulge an exact figure, Justina Carr, operations supervisor for Ellicottville Wingate, said the hotel expects a “decent amount” of reservations for the event. “We’re definitely excited about seeing a lot of people coming in. Hopefully it will be a lot of new people who haven’t been to Ellicottville, either,” she said. Also excited about the Centurion being held in Ellicottville is Hyland. “The village of Ellicottville is like from a postcard. It’s picturesque and it’s quaint, and it’s a great setting for the venue, so we’re excited to get going and see what we can do there,” he said.
Tim Horton’s Public Hearing: Town of Ellicottville ZBA Passes Variances Requests Last Thursday, August 2, 2012 was the public hearing for Tim Horton's restaurant / Miranda Development, at the regular meeting of the Zoning Board of Appeals. A review of the project was presented by the board. The current highway barn building's roof will be removed, a second story added, and then will be converted to a multi-use building. Tim Horton's will be the primary tennant, with a 1900 sq. ft. restaurant, patio and firepit with seating, a drivethru, 5-6 apartments, aand dditional tennants on the main floor. Two variances were requested by the applicant, one for a reduced parking lot setback, the other for a reduced landscape buffer across the front of the property. Discussion between board members and Ray
Miranda covered the DOT land parcel purchase, and whether or not the sale would happen in a timely manner. Details of the variance requests outlined
a parking lot 4' setback at its closest point, instead of the required 20 feet. The landscape buffer, which would normally include 20' of evergreens and grass , would vary from “greater than 0 to approximately 5'”. The public hearing was closed, with no public comments, as no members of the public were in attendance. A list of five test questions required by NY state law were read and reviewed. The Board had the option of acting on the variance requests immediately, or taking up to 62 days to decide. Because all members felt that the conditions of the state law had been met, the motion to pass both part one and part two of the variance requests was made and accepted. The next regular meeting of the zoning board of appeals is September 6, 2012 at 6 pm.
Salamanca Garden Club Meeting August 13 The Salamanca Garden Club will hold its next meeting on Monday August 13 at 7 pm at the United Congregational Methodist Church at 134 Broad Street, Salamanca. Members will have the opportunity to learn about two subjects that are crucial
to the ecological systems that surround us: native plants and rain gardens. Members will discover that even small changes in their own landscapes will have a profound effect on the health of our surroundings and families. “Bringing Nature Home”, by Douglas Tallamy,
World Harmony Torch-Bearer Award recipient Annie Widger and runners
provides the research and points of view for these topics. Plans will be made for our annual picnic. A celebration of the success of our recent flower show will conclude the meeting. Questions should be directed to Nan Miller, 945-3845.

Holiday Valley Chalet Cont. from Front Page
chimney with fireplaces on both floors and a natural stone and cedar exterior. The new lodge will be even more aesthetically pleasing than the Clubhouse Chalet, according to Jane Eshbaugh, marketing director for Holiday Valley. This is just one of the reasons why the old building was torn down in favor of a new one. “With the new lodge, we are going to have meeting space year-round, which is important because we had a limited amount of meeting space in the winter before and you kind of lose momentum. So, if you have meeting space available, it’s just more conducive to being able to host meetings and larger meetings and be more flexible with what we are able to offer the meeting planners,” she said. At 66,000 square feet, the new building will be larger than its predecessor and will have a larger guest seating area in its cafeteria, as well as more seasonal locker rooms for guest equipment storage. The daycare center will be incorporated into the new lodge, which will mean fewer steps and easier transportation to and from the Creekside Lodge. The old daycare building will be torn down to make way for a plaza
area, where a seating area will be and outdoor functions will be held. A lot of work has been done on the new lodge so far, according to Mel Duggan, president of Duggan and Duggan, which is the general contractor for the project. “We have a new structure up, the roof’s on and the metal studdings and drywall are proceeding along with the mechanical work inside the walls, so we’re well into it,” he said. Duggan said much of the work still left to be done is on the inside of the building, such as framing and tile work. “That’s what we’re doing every day. We’ve worked many seven-day weeks. Generally speaking, the largest workforce is working five days, but there are portions of it that do go on six, sometimes seven days. Depending on if it’s something critical that will free up work for the next week, we’ll work through the weekend,” said Duggan, who is confident that the project will meet its Dec. 15 completion date, which would be just in time for the 2012-13 winter season. Of course, the end of anything good evokes some heartfelt reflection, tinged with sadness, though mostly full of pleasant
reminiscing. Ron Kubicki, director of Holiday Valley’s Snowsports School, said the tearing down of the old chalet means that “there’s nothing left from when I started here” 24 years ago. “Every building, every lift, everything has been changed at least once,” he said. While Kubicki said the changes are evidence of Holiday Valley’s commitment to remaining a top East Coast resort, he noted the demolition of the old chalet does bring “a touch of melancholy” to his heart. “I got hired out of there. There was a lot of business done through the main lodge and a number of employee parties and retirement parties were done through there,” he said. Bob McCarthy, a broadcaster who has worked at Holiday Valley for 35 years, said he was at Holiday Valley competing in a ski race the year the old chalet opened. He recalled a much smaller building, one that required skiers to remove their ski boots upon entering and that possessed an even tinier food service area. “It was a charming building,” he said.
Construction continues at the Holiday Valley chalet, scheduled for a December 15 completion date.

ECS Fall Sports Programs Get Underway Soccer Begins Aug. 15 By Julia Schwartz, ECS Student Correspondent
As summer comes to an end, ECS fall sports are just beginning with a mandatory meeting for all athletes on Aug. 13 (see box) in order to be eligible to practice and play. Coaches attending will be Mary Neilon, a physical education and health teacher at ECS and varsity girls’ coach; Katie Taylor, an elementary teacher in Salamanca and the junior varsity girls’ coach; and Jen McAndrew, the varsity girls’ assistant coach. Girls’ varsity and junior varsity soccer begins Aug. 15 at 9 a.m. with a second practice 5 p.m. These athletes will be working very hard including some double practices. On Aug. 27 at 3 p.m., the girls’ modified soccer team will hold their first practice with Coach Tammy Eddie, an ECS guidance counselor. Game play starts after school begins in September. Coach Neilon is hoping to yet again lead her team into the
Final Four as she has for the last two years, hopefully bringing home a state championship. In the past, Neilon’s teams have won four state titles. During her 27-year coaching career with the Lady Eagles, she has gotten her school 25 league titles. McAndrew has been there for providing coaching experience with great advice for the players. Tammy Eddie and Katie Taylor have played for Neilon in the past, and have followed her footsteps in coaching for the Lady Eagles. Taylor played for Neilon when she and her team were 1998 and 1999 state champions. Coach Taylor, who’s called “Tazor” by the first team she coached for the school in 2009, said, “I don’t know who’s on my team this year, but I am excited for my new group of girls!” The first varsity and junior varsity scrimmages will be held Aug. 24 at Genesee Valley at 10 a.m. “I’m excited for this season,”
Kim Reading and Miguel Azcarate’s ski and snowboard shop Mud, Sweat n’Gears is due to open Friday, August 11 in their new 4,600 square foot space on Monroe Street. By Susan Whistler
said Emily Uhrinek, a varsity Lady Eagle. “We’re a young team, but I think that we can do great things and just surprise people with our skill.” The boys’ varsity and junior varsity soccer programs begin Aug. 13 at 12:01 a.m. for an awakening practice bright and early. Matt Finn, an ECS middle school math teacher, is coaching the varsity team, and Chris Keenan, the ECS ninth and tenth grade global studies teacher is coaching junior varsity. They have been doing this early-morning practice for enough years to be able to call it a tradition. The first boys’ varsity scrimmage will be against Portville on Aug. 27 at 10 a.m. The modified boys’ soccer coach is Chris Edwards, an engineering/tech teacher at ECS. This team’s practice will begin Aug. 27 at 4:30 p.m. Like the modified girls’ team, the boys also do not have a game until after school begins.
Ellicottville Central School
2012 Mandatory Student-Athlete Meeting Monday August 13th at 7pm. High School Cafeteria This is a mandatory meeting for student-athletes and a parent of the studentathlete(s) that plan to participate in fall 2012 sports programs. The purpose of the meeting is to ensure eligibility criteria for participation (attendance and academic policies), prepare paperwork with regard to recent medical history, parent permission form and verification of current IMPact Concussion Management Test. Student-athletes currently participating in a fall sport will then break out into informational team settings with their coaches.
After three months of extensive renovations, a little blood, lots of sweat and probably a few tears, Mud, Sweat n’ Gears is about to reopen for business in their newly remodeled location at 18 Monroe St. Kim Reading and Miguel Azcarate have transformed the lower floors of the old Market Square building at 18 Monroe St. into a retail showplace and new home for MSG. The ski and snowboard shop that has been a fixture in Ellicottville for the past 20 years is due to reopen on this Friday, August 11, with over 4,600 square feet featuring a new, state-of-theart, high-performance tuning, repair and rental shop and 40 percent more retail space. Beginning this Friday, Mud, Sweat n’ Gears will be open year round with their signature stock of high-performance skis and snowboards, as well as an expanded soft goods inventory. They have added more lifestyle clothing with some new lines including Streetwear, Horny Toad, prAna, Desigual and Ibex. A larger store with increased hours requires a larger staff, so they have added two new shop employees in addition to a social media coordinator to oversee and maintain their Internet sales and marketing program. This has been quite a journey for Reading and Azcarate ... literally. Mud, Sweat n’ Gears
began in 1992 as a bike shop. It originally occupied part of its new and present location at 18 Monroe St. in the 1,500-squarefoot space that was most recently the home of Gado-Gado. The couple purchased MSG in the spring of 2000 and moved the business to 21 Washington St. that fall where it remained for almost 12 years. In 2006, they purchased the old Market Square Building and began plans to completely gut and remodel the lower two floors for the new store a year ago last May …. and the rest is history. The new location has two entrances. The main entrance is on Monroe Street. Custom hardwood double doors open into a wonderfully light and open retail space. The décor can best be described as rustic chic with just a little touch of whimsy a la Reading. It is the perfect background to set off a high-performance ski and snowboard shop. The tear out/reconstruction was choreographed by Phil Vogt, who also acted as a consultant to Reading who designed the interior. Reading said that she got her inspiration from her many ski trips to Park City, Utah, over the years. The lighting fixtures and main counter are fashioned from reclaimed, corrugated metal roofing from an old local barn. The floors are wide plank, rough sawn hardwood from Fitzpatrick and Weller. Reading
added a little surprise over the main counter in the form of faux antler chandeliers painted a bright turquoise. The rental and tuning shop sits behind the retail space and runs the width of the building with its own entrance off Washington Street. The main counter is paneled with reclaimed, red barn siding that Reading rescued from the old barn on the corner of Hencoop Hollow and Route 242. That property was once owned by her family, and the old farmhouse next to the barn served as her childhood ski chalet. The rental/repair/tuning shop can be closed off from the main part of the store and will have extended hours that will be independent of the retail store during the ski season. Change is never easy, and Reading and Azcarate know that without the cooperation of their dedicated employees it would have been a lot harder. They want to thank their entire staff for all the support and hard work they have invested to make their dream a reality. Reading, Azcarate and the entire MSG family can’t wait to welcome you to their beautiful new home this Friday, just in time for the Taste of Ellicottville. Plans are currently in the works for a grand opening on Thanksgiving weekend.

Ribfest Promises Finger-Lickin-Good Time by Jeff Cole
The enticing smoky aroma and succulent flavor of barbecued ribs and pulled pork are enough to draw thousands of people to some of the major rib festivals around the country. Those who prepare food in these ribfests are far from being “ordinary Joes” with a small grill and a “Kiss the Cook” apron. Rather, they are decorated national championship rib masters who come from all around the country to show their stuff, and from 11 a.m.-11 p.m. Aug. 1618, five of these vendors will set up their booths at Veterans Memorial Park on Broad Street in Salamanca for the Allegany Rockin’ Ribfest. The ribfest will feature halfslab or full-slab lunches or dinners, as well as pulled pork and other pork products. All of the food will be prepared by national championship rib teams, who have come from areas such as Ohio, Virginia and Pennsylvania and have competed in some of the country’s major ribfests. “It’s just really neat to bring them to Salamanca,” said Jenny Ingrao, member services and events manager with the Salamanca Chamber of Commerce. Admission to the event is free and the only costs will be for food and beverages. The event will feature three days of entertainment, including
an arts and crafts show, a beer tent, a motorcycle cruise-in and a “Kidzone” area with bounce houses, slides and face painting. From 8-10 p.m. Aug. 18, The Spirit of Johnny Cash, a Johnny Cash tribute band, will perform some of the music made famous by “The Man in Black.” Music will also be played each day. “We were really lucky to be able to find them. I think everyone’s going to like them,” said Ingrao. Of course, the most obvious draw to a ribfest is the food, plenty of which will be available to choose from in the Allegany Rockin’ Ribfest. In between pulled pork sandwiches or another half-rack of ribs, ribfest-goers will also be able to vote for their favorite vendor throughout Thursday, Friday and until 2 p.m. Saturday for the “People’s Choice Award,” which is one of several award categories featured in the
festival. Some of the others are “Best Ribs,” “Best Sauce” and “Best Pulled Pork” as deemed by a judging panel. “And then overall combined scores for the highest will be dubbed ‘Ribmaster,’ which of course is the coveted prize that everybody wants to have,” said Ingrao. The ribfest, according to Ingrao, is the brainchild of the Salamanca Chamber of Commerce’s events committee, which develops ideas every fall for events to hold in the upcoming calendar year. Ingrao said that neither Salamanca nor Cattaraugus County have hosted a ribfest before, but noted her expectations are high for this one and that she easily anticipates a couple thousand people attending throughout the weekend. “I think there might be a ton of people who are coming to check it out to see what it is. I think we’re going to have some people come in and out throughout the day to see what it’s about and then come back later to bring their friends and family and say, ‘Hey, this looks really cool, let’s go check this out,’” she said. “But of course, being the first one, I have to make sure I’m on my A-game and the volunteers and the staff and the board of the chamber are on their A-game just to make sure that everything goes off without a hitch and that it leaves a good impression and open arms in the community to wanting to bring it back for a second year.”

Historical Society Presents Industries of Ellicottville The Ellicottville Historical Society will present the third in a series of lectures on the early history of Ellicottville, N.Y., at 7:30 p.m. on Aug. 14 at the Ellicottville Memorial Library. Some longtime local residents will speak on the industries of Ellicottville throughout the years. Fast-moving streams and
a growing population encouraged settlers to build sawmills and gristmills. An abundance of hardwood trees in this area influenced the production of wooden last blocks. Daniel Bartlett, M. Murphy & Son and Fitzpatrick & Weller dominated the world market on these blocks, which served as shoe forms in the late
1890s. Other diversified industries included baseball bats, baskets, a condensed milk factory, furniture upholstery and a cutlery business. All this was before skiing was ever imagined in this small village. The lecture is free to the public and refreshments will be served. Call Cathy Lacy for more information at (716) 945-5080.
Lecture Series Beginning September 26 Hosted by United Church Of Ellicottville
Deb Packard and Jenn Karns are putting together plans to host a lecture series beginning Sept. 26 for 12 weeks, ending Dec. 19. At the center of the series is The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity by Julia Cameron. Both women are very familiar with this book and would like to open discussion to members of the community. The lecture series will be offered Wednesday evenings at 7 p.m. at the United Church of Ellicottville on Elizabeth Street. The book’s subtitle, A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity, could be an antidote to today’s
cultural climate as it seeks an inner path to creativity, self-reflection and the spiritual way of living. Cameron states in her introduction, “Art is a spiritual transaction.” Artists routinely practice a form of faith as they move
toward a creative goal, which is often invisible to those around us. Art is an act of faith. “No matter what your age or your life path, whether making art is your career or your hobby or your dream, it is not too late or too egotistical or too selfish or too silly to work on your creativity,” states Cameron. If you are interested in attending or want more information, please contact Deb Packard at (716) 699-4003. A minimum number of people is required to host this series, so you are encouraged to sign up early.
Documentary to be Shown at United Church of Ellicottville
For the Bible Tells Me So Wednesday, 15 August at The United Church at 7 PM This 2007 documentary is an exploration of the intersection between religion and homosexuality in the U.S. Includes interviews with Gene Robinson and his family along with four other families who must confront what it means to
be in gay in the church. Also explores how the religious right has used its interpretation of the Bible to stigmatize the gay community. Called a “secular sermon” in a NY Times review, this educational film strives to demonstrate that
homosexuality is a genetic predisposition, not a lifestyle choice and that those who quote Leviticus to justify their animosity are guilty not just of intolerance but also of selective piety.
Letter to the Editor
To the Ellicottville Community and Beyond-
What a whirlwind few months it has been! At its inception, the Eddie Szpaicher Golf Classic was created as a way for Big Ed’s friends & family to pay homage to our fallen husband, father, colleague, and most importantly friend. We knew he left a void no one would be able to fill, but who knew what an impact the Big Man would have in his memory. We, the committee behind the Edmund Szpaicher Scholarship Fund can not even begin to express our heartfelt gratitude for the show of support from friends, family, and businesses near and far, who sought to honor Ed’s memory. We’re proud to say that with the generous donation of this special community, that the scholarship fund has far exceeded our expectations, to help pave the way for (2) two outgoingEllicottville Central School seniors, as they start their collegiate journey. To thank everyone who has supported this cause would take a full page ( full sponsor list available at bigedgolf.com), but we wish to thank a few who went above and beyond the call of the duty, to make this a truly remarkable event: Steve Carney and his staff at The Double Black Diamond Golf Course at Holiday Valley, Chris & Vickie Brown & staff of The Ellicottville Depot, Jim Carls & Dina Dipasquale & staff from Dina’s Restaurant, Randy Kane of Shults Automotive Group, Bob McCarthy for the poets cottage, Don Sibley & Patra Lowes for their sponsorship signs, and last but not least the countless volunteers, and committee members who have worked since Ed’s passing to make this a monumental event, truly fitting of the memory of Ed. The Ellicottville community is truly a special place, and we can’t thank each and every one of you enough for being a part of this special event. We hope to see you again next year, thanks againThe Eddie Szpaicher Golf Classic Committee
Fitness Can be Found Anywhere in Anyone By Kimberly Duke, Core Performance Fitness
Nike has launched its newest commercial in time for the 2012 London Olympics entitled “Find Your Greatness.” The idea behind the video is truly inspiring, as it brings to light the fact that greatness can be found in anyone and in any place. It doesn’t matter if you are big or small, and it doesn’t matter if you have a disability.
In this short commercial, Nike shows that it’s possible to find greatness even if you are not an Olympic athlete. The commercial I watched showed a country road with the sounds of a heavy-footed runner. As the commercial continues, you see that the runner is an obese young man. He is running and that is great! What I saw was effort to improve, to get healthy, to be stronger. That message speaks volumes to me. Being fit is work – it’s hard work.
Making excuses is easy. Don’t let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in your way of doing it. The time will pass anyway; you might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use. According to the Nike “Find Your Greatness” advertisement, “Greatness is not in one special place and it is not in one special person. Greatness is in wherever somebody is trying to find it.”
8 Effective Exercises You’re Not Doing! Each week we feature one new exercise you need to be doing. Start with 2 sets and work up to 3 when it feels easy.
Week 4. Walking lunges (Works legs, butt)
What you need: a clear stretch of floor How to do it: Stand with feet shoulder-width
apart. Keep chest high and abs tight as you step forward with your left foot, landing on your mid-foot and lowering yourself until the knee is at a 45-degree angle. At the same time bend the right leg until your right knee almost contacts the floor; continue stepping forward with each lunge
(keep your torso erect, not leaning forward), alternating legs. Repeat 20 reps on each leg. Why you need it: These lunges increase core strength, flexibility, and endurance, and they benefit the cardiovascular system, says Volkmer. “It helps when walking up stairs or hills.”

Recreational Trail Reality Cont. from Front Page
have you all here today. It shows me that there really is a genuine interest in the potential of (a recreational trail) project in the Ellicottville area.â&#x20AC;? He recognized those in attendance for taking the time out of their busy schedules to attend. He also thanked Moriarty for volunteering her services for this project, and mentioned his gratitude to Ellicottville Town Engineer Mark Alianello for his assistance. Ellicottville fares very well when compared to similar resort communities in the Northeast and even many in the West, many of which boast countless miles of scenic, paved multiuse trails. Adding a recreational trail is a tremendous and exciting opportunity for Ellicottville to enhance its four-season amenities already offered by similar resorts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; amenities that visitors have come to expect from such vacation destinations. At the meeting, Eshbaugh expressed enthusiasm about the project. He said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;From our perspective (Holiday Valley), weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to work in any way we can to help make the (trail) happen. I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great idea and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also something that
entities and experts, and the possibility of partnering with a professional firm to develop a trail plan. Trails have proven advantages of providing safe recreation for families, friends and people of all ages including children on tricycles, adults on bicycles, handicapped individuals in wheelchairs, babies in strollers and senior citizens on foot. Additionally, they provide easy access to exercise for better health, personal enjoyment of the outdoors and even as a trafficfree, eco-friendly way to commute to work, school and local businesses. Higgins said the ARVT is the â&#x20AC;&#x153;most used public facility in the area,â&#x20AC;? used by citizens, visitors and many fundraising groups that hold organized walks and runs on the trail. He said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;These things (trails) get used. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s constant year round.â&#x20AC;? What you think about the construction of a recreational trail in the area? We welcome your input any time during this project. Please send your comments and concerns to jennie@ellicottvilletimes. com.
Allegany River Valley Trail, Photo by Eva Potter would be wonderful to see in the community.â&#x20AC;? In addition, safety concerns for road bicyclists and other outdoor enthusiasts have resurfaced with the arrival of the Centurion road cycling event next weekend. Because the Ellicottville area has no â&#x20AC;&#x153;off-road,â&#x20AC;? traffic-free routes, the concept of a recreational trail has recently garnered attention as a way to provide another recreational outlet for area residents as well as welcomed guests. Higgins said there is a lot of preparation to be done before such a project can take flight. He attended the meeting primarily to share his experiences and to help steer the group into the next phase of
the project, providing valuable insight on various aspects of trail building including how to initiate a study, how to determine trail placement, the importance of intermunicipal agreements, liability concerns, environmental stewardship, landowner approvals, cost projections, constraints, access points and parking areas, grassroots support, identifying funding sources and more. Hinman said two of the most important aspects of this project are working respectfully with landowners and identifying sources of funding, such as grants and fundraising. He said these issues will be addressed promptly, including the identification of moneysaving resources from local

Big Leg Emma Headlines Labor Day Music Festival This Labor Day weekend, local music fans of all ages are in for a fantastic treat. The third Annual Simply Summer Music Festival is proud to present a performance from roots rock band Big Leg Emma on Friday, Aug. 31. This outdoor concert is open to the public and will be hosted at Tickletown Trust and Trade in Humphrey, N.Y., and begins at 7:30 p.m. Hailing from Western New York, Big Leg Emma has become well known throughout the northeast for their eclectic, high-energy blend of musical genres, drawing from folk, bluegrass, Americana and
contemporary rock traditions. Fans of the band enjoy the thoughtful songwriting, melodic harmonies and strong musicianship that contribute to their special sound. Opening for Big Leg Emma at 8 p.m. will be local favorites, the Allegany River Band. Now in its third year, the Simply Summer Music Festival is one of many community events and programs hosted by Tickletown Trust and Trade. Perhaps best known for its monthly full moon potlucks, Tickletown is a Conscious Living Center of Gadrian NPC that open to all
community members with an interest in building a vibrant, living, sustainable, local economy. Built and operated for many years as a general store, Tickletown has evolved into an education center and community gathering place. Educational workshop and discussion topics include permaculture design, renewable energy, organic gardening and food preservation, among others. Tickletown also serves as a venue for local artisans to sell their work. All items sold at Tickletownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Super Localmart are handcrafted, eco-friendly,
locally made wares, including local textiles and fiber, quilts, soaps, salves, candles, books, baskets, wooden bowls and more. The shop is open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4.p.m. This outdoor event is rain or shine with a suggested donation of $10 at the door. Tickletown is located at 4484 Humphrey Rd., Humphrey, N.Y.
