Community gathered at Susan B. Anthony Museum & House for RIT Big Shot 35

An early sunset didn’t deter the large crowd gathered at the National Susan b Anthony museum & House and the surrounding neighborhood for the rIT big Shot on Sunday, November 6. The community came together to shine a light on voting rights and equal rights as part of the annual photography project hosted by rochester Institute of Technology.

The rIT big Shot, described as “painting with light,” engages student and community volunteers by asking them to provide a light source while rIT photographers shoot an extended exposure image. Started in 1987, it’s a signature event for rIT’s College of Art and Design and is led by the School of photographic Arts and Sciences (SpAS), which is nationally recognized for its degree programs.

big Shot 35 featured the National Susan b. Anthony museum & House, the neighborhood surrounding Susan b. Anthony Square p ark, and the park’s signature bronze sculpture, titled “Let’s Have Tea.” The event was strategically timed two days before Election Day on November 8.

“It was really important that we did this particular photograph two days before Election Day because of Susan b Anthony’s legacy and the importance of equal rights and voting rights. This event is not about rIT or even the big Shot. It’s really about the National Susan b Anthony m useum & House,” said Eric Kunsman, co-coordinator of the big Shot

and assistant professor at rIT’s National Technical Institute for the Deaf.

Hundreds turned out for the event on the unseasonably warm night. The crowd was filled with chatter and a palpable excitement in anticipation of a big Shot first: taking two long-exposure images simultaneously. The ambitious project attracted mia basilio, a second-year fine art photography student from morgantown, pennsylvania. This was basilio’s first time taking part in the big Shot.

“I love long-exposure photography and I do a lot of it in my own work, so the idea of everybody working together to make one big long exposure is really cool,” said basilio. “It’s also a great opportunity to make connections and just experience different parts of the city and meet different people.”

big Shot co-coordinators Kunsman and Dan Hughes, lecturer in the College of Art and Design, expressed gratitude for being able to bring the project back into the rochester community for the first time since the start of the COvID-19 pandemic.

The team initially planned to shoot at the historic museum in march 2020, but it was postponed.

maureen Kissinger ’08 (visual media), from Sweet valley, pennsylvania, traveled to rochester with her family to take part in the event. She participated as a student and shared that she still joins in whenever she is able. Her son, Wesley, has attended

two previous big Shot’s and was happy they could travel to rochester to be involved again this year.

“I think it’s important that we talk about Susan b. Anthony so that people can know about the history of how women were able to vote and gained equal rights,” said Wesley. “That way we can see how much America has really changed and how much better it is for people now.”

rIT’s 35th big Shot was sponsored by Kodak, Nikon, the City of rochester, the

1872 Cafe, the Susan b. Anthony House & museum, rIT’s College of Art & Design, & the National Technical Institute for the Deaf.

Life-saving CPR technology at Spencerport Fire Department

by Tami Raco

When a person suffers cardiac arrest, the first responder’s resuscitation efforts significantly impact the person’s chance of survival. Thanks to the proceeds generated from the Spencerport Carnival, the Spencerport Fire District – which serves the residents of Ogden, Spencerport, and South Parma – now has cutting-edge CPR equipment that can help save lives with its consistency and effectiveness.

The LUCAS 3 device helps first responders perform high-quality automated CPR compressions for longer, which improves survival and neurological outcomes. “The LUCAS Chest Compression System was designed to better provide high-quality CPR all the time versus manual CPR,” said Lieutenant Cole Tresohlavy. The device can give seamless chest compressions even while maneuvering the patient in difficult areas or down stairs, to the gurney, and while loading in and out of the ambulance with no pause.

Manual compressions have diminishing quality as the person tires, and every two minutes the first responder trades off to another person to perform the compressions for two more minutes.

Tresohlavy, who has been an EMT for eight years at Spencerport FD, said: “In some cases, we provide chest compressions for up to an hour, and

now with this device, we will give the person their best chance for the best outcome.”

Firemen’s Association Vice President Adrian DeJesus said, “The unit cost approximately $20,000, and thanks to the generosity of the community at the Spencerport Carnival this year, we were able to purchase this unit and give it to the Fire District as a way to give back to the

In September, 100 members of the Fire Department received training on the device. It has been aboard the primary EMS vehicle since early November and is ready for use.

According to DeJesus, who has served at SFD for 15 years and also worked for the 911 Call Center for 14 years, “There is a strain on the EMS system with a steady increase in the volume of calls which is causing a delay in ambulances.” The Spencerport Fire Department can be first on the scene and begin life-saving CPR. The LUCAS device can administer that CPR for as long as is needed until the ambulance arrives, improving survival odds.

The Spencerport Fire Department introduced the LUCAS Chest Compression System to the community during its annual open house in October. “It was a well-attended event,” said DeJesus.

Churchville-Chili CSD BOE appoints new member

The Churchville-Chili Central School District Board of Education passed a resolution during the November 8 board meeting to appoint Michelle Aloi to serve on the board.

Ms. Aloi will be completing the term of BOE member, Kristen Brumbaugh, who resigned due to a job relocation.

The district advertised this vacancy, candidates applied and submitted letters of interest. The board interviewed applicants in October, and Ms. Aloi was selected. Ms. Aloi and her family have resided within the district for 10 years. Her three children attend Churchville-Chili schools and are in second, sixth and ninth grades. Ms. Aloi works as a consultant within the retail food industry where she is currently Vice President overseeing the company’s business operations in Japan. She was a coach for ChurchvilleChili’s Odyssey of the Mind program for seven years and has served as a youth soccer and basketball coach.

“I am proud of our school and community, and I feel that I will bring a

unique perspective to the board,” said Aloi. “I look forward to working to help create the best environment for our children to thrive academically, socially and emotionally.”

Ms. Aloi will be issued the Oath of Office on December 13, 2022, and will assume BOE duties at that time.

Brockport school bus driver accused of driving while intoxicated

A Brockport Central School District bus driver was fired and faces criminal charges after he allegedly drove a school bus while intoxicated on Monday, November 7.

The district said the driver, Robert Manley, 47, was on an out-of-district bus run and failed a random alcohol screening. The screenings are performed as a safety precaution as part of the union’s contract with the district. Manly was immediately placed on leave and parents of students on the bus were notified.

The district contacted law enforcement and turned the investigation over to the Brockport Police Department. Manley was tested by the

Brockport Police where it was determined his bloodalcohol level to be .14%.

Police say Manley was transporting five schoolage children, all under 15 years of age, while intoxicated. He was charged with five counts of Aggravated Driving While Intoxicated, five counts of Endangering the Welfare of a Child, and one count of Driving While Intoxicated while operating a School Bus. Manley was processed, released, and is due to appear in Village Court later this month.

District Superintendent Sean Bruno said, “Brockport Central School District does not tolerate any behavior that puts students at risk and has taken swift action to address this incident.”

Hawley applauds major semiconductor investment by Edwards Vacuum in WNY

Assemblyman Steve Hawley (R,C-Batavia) has praised the recent announcement that Edwards Vacuum, a British-based world leader in vacuum and abatement equipment in the semiconductor industry and part of the Atlas Copco Group, has chosen the Western New York Science & Technology Advanced Manufacturing Park (STAMP) in 139th Assembly District as the location for its new $319 million, U.S. dry pump manufacturing facility. The specific technology that will be produced at the new facility is an integral part of the sensitive manufacturing process.

This highly-protected technology and process will make the new facility one of a few globally that will have the ability to produce this product. Hawley noted that this serious investment will attract some of the best minds and leaders in the semiconductor field across the world to relocate and grow in Western New York.

“New York continues to be a serious global player in the semiconductor world, and for our community

to be home to this future facility reinforces the meaningful commitment we all have to bring jobs to our area and grow our economy,” said Hawley. “The trickle-down positive impact this will have on the district, for economic growth, our schools and future success, cannot be underscored. Creating 600 jobs is significant and I could not be prouder to have those jobs located in our region.”

With the recent global supply chain issues that have caused shortages in product and increases in prices for everything from cars to cell phones, Hawley believes this will better position New Yorkers and Americans across the country to economically benefit from this investment.

“This is welcome news not only for the significant local economic impact, but this will help everyday New Yorkers and Americans to better afford the wide array of consumer goods tied to the semiconductor technology. It’s an extremely exciting day for our region and I look forward to future growth,” concluded Hawley.

call for submissions for a community poem reflecting on the pandemic

by Teresa Schreiber Werth

Almost three years ago we, in the United States, began to hear rumblings about a virus originating in China, that was spreading rapidly and was extremely contagious, having no precise cause or known treatments. It was far away from us, but it was also deadly. We all know what happened next. Today, most people are tired of hearing about the pandemic, talking about it or even thinking about it. Masks, for the most part, have been put away or discarded, test kits have moved to the back of the closet and we desperately want to move on and believe that the pandemic is over.

My hesitant and painful conclusion is this: as much as we would rather NOT talk or think about the pandemic, I think we must. Because talking and thinking about it is an integral part of our healing. Talking and thinking about our pandemic experience is what will help us become more resilient. Sharing our pandemic experiences will give us some perspective, help us to feel more in control, validated and less alone, and provide some context for how we might handle the “next wave,” should there be one.

To that end, I am inviting our entire community to participate in a simple writing project, a poetry challenge, by submitting lines describing how you’ve been affected by the pandemic. This is not an original idea but one I am adapting from a similar project issued in April 2020 by National Public Radio. In that challenge, NPR’s poet-in-residence, Kwame Alexander pointed writers to a poem about grief and asked that submissions begin with the same words, “What I’m learning about grief…”

In this challenge – almost three years later – I am asking for written submissions from our community reflecting on a short essay by Arundhati Roy, “The Pandemic Is a Portal” (see sidebar).

Submission criteria:

1) Each submission should begin with the same words: What is this thing that has happened to us?

death notices

brockport

2) Suggested word limit – 150 words (sometimes less is more)

3) No vulgarity will be accepted. This is a family-friendly project.

4) Write about your personal pandemic experience: what YOU saw, felt, learned, struggled with, found comforting. Write about what stands out in your experiences of the past three years? Dig deep and share honestly.

5) Submissions may or may not rhyme

6) All submissions are donated by the writer to be considered for the final community poem.

7) Submissions will not be used to profit any one or any organization. Submissions remain the property of each writer.

8) Deadline: December 30, 2022

9) Send submissions in the text of an email to: OurCommunityPoem@

gmail.com (No attachments will be accepted).

10) Failure to follow submission guidelines will disqualify an entry. I will choose the submissions to be used to create a crowd-sourced, community poem documenting our pandemic experiences. Contributors chosen will be acknowledged in the final presentation. Our creation will be displayed at the Ogden Farmers’ Library in the new year. Stay tuned for those details.

Teresa Schreiber Werth is a retired communications professional, certified wedding/funeral celebrant, freelance writer and published author. She initiates this Community Pandemic Poem Project as a means of bringing us together to reflect on our pandemic experiences, to promote healing, resilience, and hope and to foster a sense of our place in history.

What is this thing that has happened to us?

It’s a virus, yes. In and of itself it holds no moral brief. But it is definitely more than a virus. Some believe it’s God’s way of bringing us to our senses. Others that it’s a Chinese conspiracy to take over the world.

Whatever it is, coronavirus has made the mighty kneel and brought the world to a halt like nothing else could. Our minds are still racing back and forth, longing for a return to “normality,” trying to stitch our future to our past and refusing to acknowledge the rupture. But the rupture exists. And in the midst of this terrible despair, it offers us a chance to rethink the doomsday machine we have built for ourselves. Nothing could be worse than a return to normality. Historically, pandemics have forced humans to break with the past and imagine their world anew. This one is no different. It is a portal, a gateway between one world and the next.

We can choose to walk through it, dragging the carcasses of our prejudice and hatred, our avarice, our data banks and dead ideas, our dead rivers and smoky skies behind us. Or we can walk through lightly, with little luggage, ready to imagine another world. And ready to fight for it.

Oak Orchard joins “Keep Your Holidays Healthy” campaign

its patients and the community healthy, particularly during the holidays,” said

Karen Kinter, Interim CEO at Oak Orchard. “It’s also important to keep our patients out of the hospital and one way

is to get their updated vaccines, including the flu shot.” That’s why she stood side by side with other business, government, and healthcare leaders, including Monroe County Executive Adam Bello, Rochester Mayor Malik Evans, and Monroe County Public Health Commissioner Dr. Michal Mendoza to announce the new campaign “Keep Your Holidays Healthy.”

The campaign emphasizes the need for flu shots and Covid vaccines. “Covid precautions greatly reduced flu cases the past few years,” said the Monroe County Executive. However, that isn’t the case this year. National data from the Centers for Disease Control shows that flu hospitalizations for this time of year are at the highest level since 2010.

That is one reason why Oak Orchard Health has a program for walk-in flu shots and for the Pfizer Bivalent Covid Booster for ages 12 and up for its patients. Check www.OakOrchardHealth.org for the most up-to-date information. Provided information and photo

Spencerport native elected president of the American Chemical Society

Mary K. Carroll, a 1982 graduate of Spencerport High School, has been elected as 2023 president-elect of the American Chemical Society, the world’s largest scientific society with 151,000 members in 140 countries.

Carroll, an analytical chemist, is the Dwane W. Crichton Professor of Chemistry at Union College in Schenectady. She was the first alumna (’86) hired as a tenure-track member of Union’s faculty.

She will serve as president of the American Chemical Society in 2024 and immediate past president in 2025; she will also serve on the board of directors from 2023 through 2025.

“Professor Carroll has been a leader in research; mentoring of students; promotion of women in STEM; and advocacy for the teacher-scholar model across liberal arts, engineering, and computer science that is core to Union College,” said David R. Harris, president of Union College.

“I feel honored and really pleased,” Carroll said in the ACS announcement on October 26. “I look forward to promoting ACS activities that are going to yield maximum results for the members and for society at large. And I’m also eager to have the opportunity to work with other ACS member volunteers from all different levels.

“At this difficult time, it is critically important that scientists contribute to society as a whole via research, education, advocacy and outreach activities,” she said. “I am truly honored to be ACS president-elect.”

Working on behalf of ACS, Carroll said she intends to focus on supporting the dissemination of research, communicating science to the public, encouraging outreach, and increasing diversity.

Carroll co-directs Union College’s Aerogel Lab, a highly productive, cross-disciplinary group of students and faculty in chemistry, mechanical engineering, and other STEM fields. The lab investigates catalytic aerogels for automotive pollution

mitigation and the use of aerogels for sustainable building applications. The Aerogel Lab has been supported by a number of grants from the National Science Foundation. Carroll and her colleagues hold three patents, including two for their aerogel manufacturing process.

Carroll and Aerogel Lab co-director Ann Anderson, the Agnes S. MacDonald Professor of Mechanical Engineering, were awarded the 2021 Stillman Prize for Faculty Excellence in Research.

Since 1998, she has served as a councilor of the Eastern New York ACS section. At the national level, she serves on the ACS Committee on Science. She was recognized as an ACS Fellow in 2016.

Professor Carroll earned her bachelor’s degree from Union College and her Ph.D. from Indiana University, Bloomington.

Among her other honors, she was named among 100 Inspiring Women in STEM by INSIGHT into Diversity magazine and received the Outstanding

Merton Williams Middle School Student Council members sort donated socks for their “Socktober” drive to benefit Rochester City Schools and area churches. Shown are (l-r) Alexa Leverich, Emma DeRider, Madison Hart, Payton Aylward, and Grace Hereth.

“Socktober” at Hilton’s Merton Williams Middle School

Madison Hart, an eighth grader at Merton Williams Middle School in Hilton, is following in her late uncle’s footsteps. As president of the Merton Williams Student Council, she wanted to find a way for her school to give back. Her uncle, Scott Spino, a teacher and coach in the Rochester City Schools, was killed by a drunk driver in 2004 at the age of 28. “His whole goal was to make a legacy and give back to people who are struggling and don’t have much,” said Madison.

She and her fellow Student Council members brainstormed a lot of ideas for a charitable project that they

could do together as a school. “Socks are one of the least donated items for the homeless and those in need, so that’s how we came up with the idea for ‘Socktober,’” said Madison.

Students and staff donated nearly 500 pairs of new socks that are being sent to Rochester City Schools and area churches.

The Scott Spino Foundation, Inc. focuses on supporting programs that provide education, coaching and mentoring to children in the Rochester community. For more information, visit scottspinofoundation.org.

In an effort to recognize and support our nation’s veterans, Elks National President Bruce Hidley has proclaimed November to be Veterans Remembrance Month. This month, all Americans are urged to join the Elks in service to the veterans in your community.

For Elks, service to veterans is a year-round commitment. Last year, the Elks’ nationwide support of veterans, including time, in-kind and fiscal donations, totaled more than $39 million.

Every day, Elks volunteer at VA Medical Centers and health clinics across the country to provide support for veterans seeking care. Elks members at hundreds of Lodges across the country step in to provide veterans exiting homelessness with beds, home supplies, and food to establish their new homes. Every month, Elks plan events, donate supplies, and offer friendship to residents of State Veterans Homes across the country.

Elks members band together with community groups like food pantries and clothing companies to provide hot meals and warm winter clothing to veterans at resource fairs and veterans Stand

Downs. Elks members donate to provide emergency assistance to help veterans and their families prevent homelessness and stay safely housed.

A newly housed veteran who received Elks assistance with a security deposit said, “I wish to express my overwhelming gratitude and thanks to you. I can’t completely put into words how it feels to have a beautiful, secure place to live and to know that there are people in the world like you and everyone you work with, who are concerned about the rest of us and are taking action to ensure their well-being.”

Locally, there are Elks Lodges in Brockport, Rochester, and Albion. To learn more about joining Elks in service, visit Join.Elks.Org.

Rehabilitation of Albion bridge set to begin Nov. 14

Work is slated to begin Monday, November 14, on a project to rehabilitate the State Route 98 lift bridge over the Erie Canal in the Village of Albion. The project will modernize and extend the lifespan of this important structure, which was built in 1914, and enhance safety and resiliency along a vital travel route to the Village of Albion’s bustling business corridor and the vibrant tourism scene along the Erie Canal. State Route 98, which is also known as North Main Street in the village, also serves as an important conduit for the region’s agricultural products.

“The Erie Canal embodies the perseverance, innovation and ingenuity of New Yorkers and it’s important that our iconic canal bridges continue to reflect our history and serve our communities,” said New York State Department of Transportation Commissioner Marie Therese Dominguez. “That is why Governor Hochul and New York State DOT are making this critical investment into the State Route 98 bridge – an investment that will help ensure the long-term vitality of the region’s economy and the entire Albion community without compromising the bridge’s beloved character.”

Work on the bridge is part of a larger $28.3 million project that will also rehabilitate the State Route 19 Bridge over the Erie Canal in the Village of Brockport, which is slated for closure in April 2023. It also builds on NYSDOT’s prior success in modernizing and preserving the iconic structures along the canal, which includes a recently completed, $16.9 million project that rehabilitated similar bridges in the Villages of Spencerport and Fairport.

The State Route 98 steel truss bridge serves as an important component to the historic Erie Canal, which is a registered National Historic Landmark. As part of the Canal, the bridge benefits from historical protections that ensure the bridge continues to look as it did early in the 20th century with its trusses and lift towers preserved. This project, will extend the bridge’s service life and better support motorists for a 21st century economy by:

•Replacing bridge decks and portions of the truss system with high-strength, galvanized steel.

•Modernizing mechanical and electrical components within the bridge’s lifting system.

•Rehabilitating the bridge towers.

•Installing new bridge rails.

•Repainting the bridge, maintaining its current shade of green.

During construction, the bridge will be dismantled with individual trusses lifted and placed in the lot adjacent to the Canal, where the rehabilitation work will occur. When work is complete, it will be moved back into place over the Canal. Due to the nature of this work, the roadway will be closed to motorists and pedestrians for roughly 18 months. A signed detour will be in place utilizing State Routes 31, 387 (Fancher Road), and 104 (Ridge Road). The Erie Canal Trailway will remain open for the duration of the project.

Village of Albion Mayor Angel Javier said, “Businesses and residents are eagerly waiting for the start and completion of the project. They are looking forward to a updated bridge that serves the community in the safest capacity. During this time the Village will work with local organizations to highlight the historic nature of the bridge through education, as well as planning activities in the space south of the bridge.”

New York State Senator Robert Ortt said, “The Erie Canal and the bridges our residents use to traverse it are not only important parts of our regional history but are necessary components of residents’ daily commutes. The rehabilitation of the State Route 98 lift bridge and State Route 19 Bridge will ensure that the culturally significant components of our communities will continue to operate safely while remaining a viable method of transport for future generations. I welcome this $28.3 million investment by the NYS Department of Transportation and look forward to the project’s timely completion.”

Spencerport girls and boys soccer teams advance to state semi-finals

by Warren Kozireski

At the start of the New York State high school soccer playoffs, only four schools in the entire state sent both their girls and boys programs to the tournament. Heading into the state semi-finals November 12 and 13, only one sent both to their respective final four – Spencerport.

The Rangers girls won their seventh consecutive Section V championship and advanced to the semi-finals with a 2-1 comefrom-behind victory over Section VI winner Williamsville East.

The boys won their first Section V title since 2012 and 13th in school history. They easily handled Niagara-Wheatfield 4-1 in the state regional round to advance to the final four.

After falling behind 1-0 after a penalty kick goal by Williamsville East in the 14th minute, the Rangers rallied just seven minutes later to tie the game as sophomore Lindsay Lenhard scored on a free kick from 21 yards out, putting the ball inside the left post for

“One of the main things our coaches preach is to crash the box and get something on goal, and it was rebounded out and I was there…worked out perfectly,” Fitzgerald said.

“Our coaches also preach don’t let someone else do it, do it yourself, so I saw the ball and went right for it; I didn’t care who was in my way.”

“It’s a great feeling; we really worked together as a team,” senior defender Sydney Khuns said. “After we got scored on it was tough, but we pushed through that to get the win.

“We definitely lost a lot of players last year, but we’ve been working really hard as a team and we’ve been pushing each other. I think we just all work really well together.”

“This year was a rebuilding year because we lost a lot of good players and to put it all together was a lot of work, but credit to this team for working hard and add a little grit to it to accomplish this again,” Spencerport head coach Jamie Schneider said.

In addition to Lenhard’s 19 goals, freshmen Emily Peacock and Liana Tata were second

defending champion Pittsford-Sutherland in the finals.

They had an easier time in their state regional contest using a pair of assists by senior Joey Weaver in their victory on their home field.

Weaver took a corner kick that was chipped in by junior Josiah Warrington for the game’s first goal in the 24th minute. Later in the first half, senior Andrew Wiebeld’s free kick from 40 yards out dribbled past the goalkeeper with classmate Andrew Moss shielding for a 2-0 lead.

After Niagara-Wheatfield cut the lead to one in the 61st minute, Weaver put a left foot pass through the defense and right on the foot of freshman Zach Tortora, who with poise put it past the goalkeeper to extend the lead back to two goals. Junior Justice Hinman later sealed the victory with an assist from junior Kyle Milburn to send the Rangers to their first state semi-final since 1979.

“The defense line pushed up (after blocking the free kick) and Zach made the perfect run through, I played him and he was composed and finished it,” Weaver said about the third goal.

can play with anyone,” Spencerport head coach Kody Wyant said. “We wanted to make sure we brought consistency to the sectional tournament.”

Milburn broke the school’s all-time scoring mark this season previously held by Randy Shaw in 1990-1992. He finished with 21 goals and was second with nine assists. Hinman had 12 goals while Weaver led the squad with ten assists.

The boys were set to face Amityville Memo-

Roberts wins eighth straight ECC title

The Roberts Wesleyan University men’s cross country team swept the top five spots on the Matt St. James Cross Country Trails to secure their eighth consecutive East Coast Conference championship on Saturday, November 5.

“It’s really nice to see us take one through five because it shows that the group is coming into top form as we move into championship season,” said Andrew Dorr, Roberts Wesleyan’s Director of Cross Country and Track & Field.

Junior Blake Kasper covered the 8K course in 26:07 to finish first.

He was followed across the finish line by teammates Owen White (26:21), Jackson Doran (26:23), Zachary Hall (26:35) and Ryan Karker (26:46).

Kasper was named ECC Runner of the

Year and was named first-team all-conference along with White, Doran, Hall and Karker. Dorr was named ECC Coach of the Year for the ninth straight season.

Roberts finished with 15 points. Daemen placed second with 48 and Molloy was third with 69.

“The first thing that you have to do is to win the conference,” Dorr said. “I told the guys to go out and run as a group and put yourself in position to do that, and they did.”

Sophomore Jaxon Bunting finished 17th for Roberts (28:01) while sophomores Landon Schreib and Hunter Moore finished 20th and 21st, respectively.

Next up for Roberts is a trip to the NCAA Division II Regionals at Bethpage Park, Long Island, on November 19.

“Coach Wyant at the beginning of the season said this is our goal and this is where we want to be. We’re going to have highs and lows, but that’s where we want to be.”

“I think it was the way we bonded as a team; there wasn’t really one specific game,” senior John Choate said. “We just came together and were really good at the end; we came together at the right time coming into sectionals.”

if we can beat all these AA schools, that we

Hilton High School presents Alice @ Wonderland

Alice @ Wonderland will be presented on the Hilton High School stage on Friday, November 18, at 7 p.m.; Saturday, November 19, at 2 and 7 p.m.; and Sunday, November 20, at 2 p.m. in the Hilton High School auditorium, 400 East Avenue, Hilton.

What would happen if a 21st century Alice collided with Lewis Carroll’s legendary Wonderland? This modern

retelling of the classic children’s story has all the characters you know and love, including the Mad Hatter, the White Rabbit, and the Queen of Hearts. The story is laid out in traditional style, except that Alice is distinctly contemporary, complete with cell phone in hand. The play imagines a present-day Alice encountering the Wonderland so many treasure. A

sharply told, crisply paced ride, this quality adaptation has been praised for its humor, modern style, and appeal to both children and adults.

Tickets are $10 and may be purchased online at Showtix4u.com, search “Hilton.” Please note that ticket sales are final.

Exploring lawn alternatives

by Kristina Gabalski

How do you use your lawn? For outdoor sports activities and games? For an outdoor play area for children? For a place for pets to run and play? Or does your lawn get very little use?

If your lawn is largely unused, there are many landscape alternatives for you to consider. Lawns create a monoculture in your landscape and often require costly and constant maintenance. pesticides use, water waste, and pollution are all drawbacks to having the perfect lawn and even organic methods can be time consuming and expensive.

There are several reasons reducing the size of your lawn may be desirable. If your yard has a steep slope, too much shade or has unsuitable soil for turf grass. If you want to manage stormwater runoff, or if you are looking to add more diversity, beauty and ecological value to your landscape.

The University of maryland Extension offers a number of ways to replace all or just a portion of your lawn. Ground covers are one of them. They spread, but do not get tall enough to mow. They work well on steep slopes and narrow driveway strips. Given time, perennial evergreen ground covers can choke out weeds. Until the ground cover is established, you will have to weed and mulch. Avoid invasives like periwinkles, Japanese spurge, and Ajuga reptans. Native options include common blue violet, virginia creeper, Matteuccia struthiopteris (ostrich fern), Hypericum prolificum (shrubby St. John’s wort), and Monarda didyma (scarlet bee balm).

Ornamental grasses have few pest or disease problems, are drought resistant and low maintenance. Stunning displays

can be created with different textures and heights of various grasses. There are many beautiful possibilities including native switchgrass (Panicum virgatum), little blue stem (Schizachyrium scoparium), and yellow indiangrass (Sorghastrum nutans).

Garden beds and borders are obvious alternatives to lawns. Consider options that help attract and support wildlife like native gardens, pollinator gardens, or wildlife gardens. Use a variety of plants that bloom at various times of the year. Native plants provide nectar, pollen, berries, seeds and bird nesting sites.

rain gardens help improve water qual ity and wildlife habitat and slow down rainwater runoff, as well as increase water filtration into the soil. building a rain garden is a labor-intensive process – so be prepared if you are interested in attempting this one. Edible landscaping is another option and includes vegetable, herb and fruit gardens.

meadows are a consideration if you have a large area that receives at least six hours of sunlight each day. They can help enhance biodiversity by providing food and shelter for birds, pollinators, and other insects. meadows are made up of 50 to 70 percent native grasses and flowering native perennial plants, but again, the University of maryland warns that native meadows can be expensive to establish and take several years to reach maturity. Another word of warning: wildflower seed mixes commonly found in stores typically contain annuals that are not native and will not survive in the long-run.

Lastly, even trees can offer an alternative to lawns. They provide shade, help reduce home energy costs, provide privacy, and add
