Central YMCA Centennial 1915-2015
Central Y to mark Champion Street anniversary with open house
T
he Central YMCA will celebrate 100 years at its current location in downtown Youngstown with an open house from 2-5 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 22. Central YMCA staff will greet current and former members and the general public also is invited to attend. The Central YMCA is located at 17 N. Champion St. The open house will include facility tours, meet-and-greets, historical photo displays and refreshments. The event will culminate with an announcement on planned capital improvements to the Central YMCA. The Central Y opened in November 1915. President William Howard Taft delivered the dedication speech. The YMCA of Youngstown has a long and illustrious history. It has been serving the Youngstown community since the 1800s. What began as a retreat to protect the values of young farmers moving to the city for work, the YMCA is now a cornerstone of the community. Established in 1872 by Dr. R.D. Gibson, the Youngstown YMCA began at the house of Gibson’s parents. The YMCA quickly grew and moved to the second floor of a new building on East Federal Street. It became an independent, locally controlled Ohio corporation in 1884, just 32 years after the first YMCA in the United States was founded. That year, a reading room was opened at the YMCA to enrich the lives of its young men. In 1906 the reading room expanded to include an educational director. The expansion eventually grew into the Youngstown Law School, which ultimately became Youngstown State University. Additionally, WKBN housed its earliest radio broadcasting studios on the third floor of the Central Y. Today, the YMCA of Youngstown has grown to include over 17,000 members and includes three branches that provide programming to develop its mission. Tim Hilk is Chief Executive Officer. Central YMCA staff includes Mike Shaffer, Executive Director; Eric Buckingham, Membership Director; Tara Bishop, Aquatic Director; Maureen Horvath, Fitness Director; Joselyn Parker, Youth and Teen Director; D’Nelle Seiple, Youth Sports League Director; Karl Reder, Maintenance Director; and Jenn Quinlan, Community Cup Director. Local YMCA facilities include: 6 METROMONTHLY.NET | NOVEMBER 2015

Edmond McDonald (second row, third from left) was the Central Y’s secretary (CEO) in 1915. Central Branch – Housed at 17 North Champion St., in the heart of downtown Youngstown since 1915. Because the Central Y is a long-standing community institution, most Youngstown residents have great memories of visiting the Y as
children and young adults and continue to share the legacy of the “Y experience” with their children and grandchildren. Camp Fitch on Lake Erie – Camp Fitch began in the early 1900s as a boy’s summer bible camp at Muddy Lake near Ravenna.
The first permanent camp was opened in 1914 in West Point, Ohio. Within 10 years, the resident camp became so popular that it outgrew its West Point location. After a donation from the Fitch family, Camp Fitch moved in 1924 to its current location in North Springfield, Pa. with 450-acre grounds. Today, Camp Fitch is open 360 days-a-year and serves thousands of boys and girls, as well as their families. Spanning generations, many families have three and four generations of Camp Fitch campers who now share similar experiences and memories. D.D. & Velma Davis Family YMCA – The newest facility of the YMCA of Youngstown opened in 2003. The D.D. and Velma Davis Family YMCA was developed to complement the Central Branch and provide fun and educational activities, including an outdoor aquatic center and recreational area. The following information on the Central Y was provided by Al Leonhart, YMCA archivist. ◆ The Central Y once had a rooftop gym completely enclosed by a wire fence. ◆ The building originally had four working fireplaces. Two are still visible in the Cardio Center on the first floor. ◆ The building’s original pool closed in 1954, but still exists completely intact under the Hammer Strength weight room floor. After the pool closed, it became a Civil Defense shelter during the Cold War. ◆ The Central Y once boasted a threechair barber shop, a full-service tailor shop, and a print shop where all the Y newsletters were produced. ◆ Dormitory rooms – located on the fourth, fifth and sixth floors – were known as Dorm City. The dorms had a mayor who oversaw all three floors. Each floor had council members who addressed resident concerns, arranged field trips and sporting events. Competitive activities included table tennis and basketball at Central, and baseball at Mill Creek Park. ◆ The Central Y had a four-lane bowling alley and a billiards room whose original purpose was to keep young men and boys from entering establishments outside of the YMCA where they may have been subjected to cigarettes, alcohol, and questionable language.

Penalty flag debuted at Rayen Stadium game
T
he penalty flag, a fixture in college and professional football, originated in Youngstown, and its development was aided by Jack McFee, a local sports referee and long-time associate of the Central YMCA. Dwight “Dike” Beede, who served as the first head football coach at Youngstown College, introduced the penalty flag in 1941. The device, which Beede created and introduced on Oct. 17, 1941, was first used in a game against Oklahoma City University at The Rayen Stadium in Youngstown. Prior to its introduction, officials During a 1941 used horns and whistles to signal a contest at Rayen penalty. This made Stadium, Oklaho- it difficult for fans ma City Coach Os and media to recognize an infraction Doenges and four on the field because they often failed to game officials hear the signal. – Hugh McFee, During the 1941 contest, OklahoJack McFee, Bill ma City Coach Os Renner, and Carl Doenges and four Rebele – agreed game officials – Hugh McFee, Jack to use the flag as McFee, Bill Renner, an experiment. and Carl Rebele – agreed to use the flag in an experiment. Jack McFee subsequently employed the penalty flag at the Ohio State-Iowa game, where League Commissioner Major John Griffith was present. Beede’s wife, Irma, sewed the first penalty flag. Beede asked her to create a brightly colored flag with white stripes. She reportedly used lead sinkers from his fishing tackle box to weight it down. The original flag was 16 inches square with the weight all at one end. The penalty flag has been modified over the years. Today, it’s a yellow cloth that’s filled with sand to weigh it down. McFee, who figured in the development of the penalty flag, was a longtime associate and fundraiser for the Central YMCA and Camp Fitch. Beede was born in Youngstown. He attended South High School, where he was class president and played football. In his senior year, he received a football scholarship to Newberry College in South Carolina. He later transferred to Carnegie Institute of Technology (now Carnegie Mellon University), where he played football and studied structural engineering. As a standout player with Judge Wally Steffan's Carnegie squad in the 1920s, Beede made football history when he introduced the famous "spinner play." He served as captain of the football team and also played basketball. After graduation, Beede turned down an offer to teach math at Carnegie Tech and, in 1926, accepted a coaching position at Westminster College. He held this position for five years, coaching an outstanding team that tied Duquesne University for the tri-state championship. Beede then coached at Geneva College, from 1934 to 1936. The following year, he came to Youngstown College. (He retired from Youngstown State University on Nov. 18, 1972.) Not long after, Beede died at his farm in Elkton.

Farm-to-table gains foothold, expands locally BY SEAN POSEY METRO MONTHLY CONTRIBUTING WRITER
N
ot long ago, the farm-to-table and local food movement might have seemed like a coastal phenomenon, one more relevant to boutique eateries than to everyday dinner tables. However, the idea of locally sourced food is catching on throughout the country and in the Mahoning Valley. According to author and food journalist Michael Pollan, “The average item of food in America has travelled 1,500 miles from the farm to your plate.” That hasn’t always been the case. Until the early 20th century, the majority of food consumed in America originated within 50 miles of where it was consumed. In the Valley, backyard gardens remained popular through World War II, and at its height, thousands of shoppers daily bought fresh produce from area farmers at Youngstown’s famous Pyatt Street Market. Today, things are changing again. In 2009, the USDA launched the “Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food” initiative, designed to expand federal support for building local food systems. Since 2008, the number of farmers’ markets has increased 68 percent, and increasingly restaurants are building menus around locally sourced foods. Jim and Ely Pugh were among the earliest adopters of farm-to-table in the Valley; they’ve been buying local and organic for 30 years. The couple originally ran Lock 24 in Lisbon where Ely served as head chef. They now own Ely’s To Go in Boardman. Ely’s started as a vegetarian restaurant, but is now completely vegan. Yet the couple estimates that 95 percent of their customers are non-vegetarians. Not only are patrons entranced by the food, Jim Pugh explained, they want to know where they can purchase fresh, local produce. “People want to know, ‘Where do we go to get on a list? Where can we get local, organic produce?’ So, we have to tell them, and they contact those farmers and take it from there.” Ely’s largest supplier is Early Road Gardens, located on Youngstown’s East Side. However, they buy from numerous small farmers around the area—including Breezy Hill Farm in Alliance, Hickory

Ely’s might be at the forefront of restaurants using locally sourced produce, but “the numbers are growing all the time,” said Jim and Ely Pugh. Hollow Farm in Wellsville and Iron Roots Urban Farm in Youngstown. Ely’s might be at the forefront of restaurants using locally sourced produce, but “the numbers are growing all the time,” said the Pughs. Common Wealth Inc. has a long history as a non-profit working to provide quality affordable housing in the Youngstown area. They are also deeply involved in promoting and furnishing outlets for the expansion of local food enterprises. Their latest endeavor, 30 Mile Meals, aims to create a “shared identity” for those involved in the local food movement. Common Wealth wants to get consumers sourcing more of their food from within 30 miles of where they live. Those who partner with 30 Mile Meals gain access to a variety of services: publicity, mapping services identifying them to the public as being involved in some aspect of local food and entry to promotional events designed to raise brand visibility.

Many of the growers involved in farmto-table are located in rural areas, but urban farms also play a key role. One of the fastest growing operations is the Iron Roots Urban Farm on Youngstown’s South Side. Iron Roots is a 1.7-acre for-profit farm operated by the Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corporation. The farm itself has a central communitybuilding component built into it. “We are trying to increase food access and also educational opportunities centered around food,” said Danielle Seidita, the farm’s program coordinator. Iron Roots sells to a variety of restaurants in the area, as well as at the Idora Farmers’ Market, the North Side Farmers’ Market and the Unitarian Universalist Church in the winter months. The YNDC also offers free cooking, urban farming and business classes, at their offices and at the Humility of Mary Health Partners Kitchen located at 822 Billingsgate Ave. The extended season Idora Farmers’ Market currently operates every Tuesday and Friday from SEE FARM TO TABLE, Page 24
he St. Augustine Society, a Catholic outreach ministry, opened Café Augustine last month. The restaurant and jobs-readiness program is housed in the Newport Branch of the Public Library of Youngstown and Mahoning County, 3730 Market St. Café Augustine serves hot and cold sandwiches, wraps, burgers, grilled cheese, soups, salads, beverages and various sides. The restaurant is open from 11a.m.-2 p.m., Monday through Friday. Beginning on Nov. 14, the café will be open from 8 a.m.-1 p.m. on Saturdays. The restaurant is closed on Sunday. The phone number is 234-254-4254. The restaurant is an outreach initiative for young adults ages 18-24. It serves as a workshop and life-skills training ground for youth who have become disconnected from the working world. and seeks to teach students the skills necessary for working in the food-service and restaurant industries. After success in this teaching workplace, participating students will be ready for hiring by commercial and institutional food service providers, or they may continue further academic and technical education. Café Augustine was inspired by, and is receiving technical support from, Urban Strategies and Café Reconcile in New Orleans. Since 2000, over 1,000 students have completed training and gone on to successful employment in the food-service industry there.

RESTAURANTS: THE WINE GUY
Station Square, Springfield Grille debut Chilean wines at tastings
T
his month’s column is loaded with many fine and unique wines found at local tastings. An interesting experience I had was attending two different restaurant tastings using the same winery and coming up with results that really amazed me with their variety. On Sept. 24, I attended Station Square Ristorante’s monthly dinner taste and was excited to learn that they were pouring a new-to-Ohio line of wines, Sierra Batuco from Chile. Wine representative Michael Scannell was on hand to provide more information and lead participants through each wine’s style and attributes. Our first wine was Sierra Batuco’s 2013 Sauvignon Blanc Reserva from the Valle Del Maule region of Chile. Classic citrus and melon fruit flavors proceed to a bright mineral-tinged finish that was very pleasing. This wine would work nicely with a fruit and cheese salad or other appetizer. A glass of Sierra Batuco’s 2014 Reserva Chardonnay was next in line. Classic Chardonnay fruit flavors with a finish tinged with a hint of oak made this a fine partner for our starter salad course. When my dinner course of Penne Margherita (penne pasta with tomatoes, mozzarella and basil) arrived, it was accompanied by a sample of Sierra Batuco’s 2013 Pinot Noir Reserve. This was a food and wine match made in heaven. Lush plum and berry fruit flavors and a spicy finish tinged with vanilla meshed nicely with the pasta sauce. At $13 a bottle, the Sierra Batuco Pinot Noir compares very nicely to a Pinot costing nearly three times as much. My next red wine sample was a 2012 Valle del Maule Reserva Malbec. Lush dark fruit flavors tinged with spicy chocolate lead to a finish that evokes hazelnuts and lavender. This is a great red wine for someone looking for something different for upcoming holiday entertaining. If you’re looking for a Cabernet Sauvignon with rich, jammy fruit flavors finishing up crisp and clean, give the Sierra Batuco 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon a try. It worked very well with my pasta dish. Our last wine of the evening was the Sierra Batuco 2013 Red Blend. This full-bodied blend of Syrah (60 percent), Cabernet Sauvignon (30 percent), and Carmenere (10 percent) produces lush, full-bodied red fruit flavors that finish clean with a hint of spicy cassis (black currant). This red blend should work nicely with pork tenderloin and rib roasts at the holidays. I want to thank the Station Square staff for
THE WINE GUY JOHN WEBSTER delicious with the 2012 Red Blend Reserva from the Batuco lineup. The silky red fruit flavors of this wine meshed deliciously with the locally-produced Marcy’s Creamery vanilla ice cream served with this souffle. Local store tastings produced several recommendations this month. At Cork & Cap on Elm Road, I tasted a fine inexpensive bubbly that would be perfect for the holidays. The Cameron Hughes Lot 414 Prosecco Extra Dry DOC ($12.99 on sale from $17.99) from the Veneto region of Italy offers fresh and lively fruit flavors and a long, bubbly finish that should make the most discerning wine drinkers happy. Also at this tasting I found a very enjoyable Lot 375 Cameron Hughes Malbec Reserva

another great evening of food and wine. On Sept. 28, I attended Springfield Grille’s Harvest Wine Dinner, which also featured the outstanding Sierra Batuco line of Chilean wines paired to Chef Nick Mileto’s outstanding harvest dinner menu. Representative Michael Scannell attended this dinner to describe these tasty Chilean wines and how they complemented each dinner course. I found it exciting to compare and contrast the wines in different settings, since I had just tasted them at Station Square the previous week. The Grille’s first course of Oysters Rockefeller topped with aged provolone cream sauce was paired to Sierra Batuco’s fine 2013 Sauvignon Blanc. This was a great pairing of food and wine. The crisp Sauvignon Blanc’s citrus fruit flavors were a nice balance to the creamy oysters Rockefeller. Our next wine sample was the Batuco’s delicious 2013 Chardonnay Reserva. It was paired to Chef Mileto’s outstanding pumpkin sage risotto, made with locally grown pumpkin. This
rich and tasty dish needed a crisp full-bodied white to accompany it, and the Batuco’s classic Chardonnay fruit flavors worked very well. Our first red was a glass of Sierra Batuco’s tasty 2012 Reserva Malbec from their Valle del Maule vineyards. It was served with the Grille’s signature greens and golden beet salad made from locally produced greens and goat cheese. The Malbec’s vivid red fruit flavors meshed wonderfully with the Grille’s delicious blackberry vinaigrette dressing. This entree showed the versatility of Batuco’s great Malbec Reserva. Our fourth and main course was a generous portion of locally produced smoked ribeye drizzled with Cabernet au jus. It was paired to a glass of 2013 Sierra Batuco’s delicious Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva. The juicy fork-tender ribeye was an outstanding match for this textbook Chilean Cab. A generous portion of salted caramel chocolate souffle was our fifth and final course. It was
($12.99 on sale from $19.99) from Mendoza, Argentina. Nearly black in color, this fullbodied Malbec features ripe cherry and plum flavors coupled with a long clean finish. At Vintage Estate Wine and Beer in Boardman, I found two white wines that would be very good for holiday dining and entertaining. My first pick is the 2013 Obsession Symphony ($10.99) from Ironstone Vineyards. This interesting blend of Grenache Gris, Muscat Alexandria, and Verdelho offers aromatic captivating aromas of citrus and honeysuckle, finishing crisp and clean. This would be a great Thanksgiving wine for a nice change of pace from wines traditionally served with turkey. My next pick is the 2013 Grand Passione Falanghina ($12.99). With tasty citrus flavors and floral aromas, this is a great white wine for holiday entertaining, and should be appreciated by most guests. Upcoming tastings include Donavito’s wine taste 6 p.m., Nov. 4 at their restaurant in downtown Struthers. Also on Nov. 4, MicroDoctor will host their Mahoning County Wine Down event at Cafe 422 in Boardman. Cork & Cap will have a Holiday Wine Gala Friday, Dec. 4 at Trumbull Country Club. Springfield Grille is planning a “murder mystery” dinner in November (contact restaurant for details). Regular tastings include Station Square’s “Wine Wednesday”; the Upstairs Restaurant’s Wine Down, third Thursday tasting; Charlie’s Premier Wines of Howland, every Saturday; Barrel 33, every other week on Thursday, Friday and Saturday; Vintage Estate, third Saturday tasting; and Cork & Cap second Saturday tasting.

RESTAURANTS: LOCAL DINING FARM TO TABLE, From Page 11 3:30 to 6 p.m. at the same location. Seidita emphasized that classes are designed to “help folks who want to start a food-based business, whether that’s farming, cottage food or a restaurant.” Phill and Sandy Reda’s Magic Tree Pub and Eatery is quickly becoming one of the hottest restaurants on the farm-totable scene in the Valley. The couple, formerly owners of Vintage Estate Wine and Beer, opened the Magic Tree in the former Youngstown Sports Grille on South Avenue in Boardman three years ago. “We wanted to do farm-to-table from day one,” Sandy Reda said. But it wasn’t until they hired chef John “Tank” Jurcisin in 2013 that they were able to commit to crafting a locally sourced menu.

METROMONTHLY.NET | NOVEMBER 2015
“Two years ago, when I started, it was very hard to locally source about anything,” Jurcisin recalled. “Now I have farmers coming to me on a regular basis.” The Magic Tree deals with close to 30 farmers on a regular basis. They offer a full farm-to-table menu every Thursday, Friday and Saturday. “But we have locally grown on our menu every day,” Jurcisin emphasized. “We are probably 35 percent to 40 percent local on our everyday menu. Half the time people don’t even realize that when they are eating something like our meatloaf—that’s local.” In 2015, the Magic Tree held its first farmers’ market, dubbed the “Magic Market,” in the restaurant’s parking lot.
