Simone Biles and Adolis Garcia have been selected as the Hickok Belt® Award winners for October 2023. Voting was conducted by a select panel of members of the National Sports Media Association (NSMA). Professional gymnast Simone Biles once again rose to the top of the gymnastic world by winning the all-around gold medal and the gold medal for the floor exercises. By winning the sixth gold medal on the floor, Biles became the first gymnast in the history of world championships to win that many titles on one apparatus. In addition, she is the first to win six all-around gold medals. Texas Ranger outfielder Adolis Garcia, in a post season performance, led the Rangers to the World Series. In a spate of league changing torrid home runs, Garcia sparked his team to a World Series versus the Arizona Diamondbacks. His grand slam was the key to the Rangers winning in the ninth inning of Game 6. In Game 7, he put the icing on

the cake with his two homers and five runs, propelling the Rangers into the World Series. Garcia was named the ALCS Most Valuable Player. Other finalists for the month of October in order of how the NSMA ranked them included: Zack Wheeler (baseball), A.J. Brown (football), Max Verstappen (auto racing), Luka Doncic (basketball), Josh Allen (football), Jonathan Quick (hockey), Collin Morikawa (golf) and Iga Swiatek (tennis). Biles’ and Garcia’s selection as the Hickok Belt® winner for October recognizes them as “the best of the best” in professional sports for the month. It also makes them candidates eligible to receive the 2023 overall award, joining Coco Gauff, Carlos Alcaraz, Nikola Jovic, Jon Rahm, Mikaela Shiffrin, Damien Lillard and other finalists throughout the year based on NSMA voting.

Spencerport wins third girls soccer state title in perfect season by Warren Kozireski

Pictured are Brigitte Duschen, Club Treasurer, the Kiwanis Club of Brockport, and Robin Govanlu, Director of Behavioral Health at Oak Orchard Health.

Brockport Kiwanis Club supports Oak Orchard’s Mommy and Me Program The Kiwanis Club of Brockport donated $1,500 to Oak Orchard Health’s Mommy and Me program. This program supports new moms and caregivers experiencing postpartum depression and anxiety. This donation will help support vital resources for the families involved in this program, including items in a newborn welcome kit, home safety items (cabinet locks, Carbon Monoxide and smoke detectors), and supplies for the caregiver support group that is facilitated by OOH care managers. The U.S. has some of the poorest health outcomes for children and their birth mothers. “The Mommy and Me program is an extremely innovative approach to improving those statistics in our region with special attention to mental health in the postpartum period. Our patients will now be met by a care manager in several of their child’s well visits, from birth to age 4 ½. Through some questions and interviewing, we can identify and help address any needs the family may have. Care managers will be evaluating for postpartum depression and anxiety, and then refer patients to one of our behavioral health counselors specializing in perinatal mental health,” said Dr. Danielle Renodin-Mead, Pediatrician and Chief Medical Officer at Oak Orchard Health. Dr. Mead and Robin Govanlu, OOH Director of Behavioral Health, are co-founders of this program. Oak Orchard appreciates the support it has received from the Kiwanis Club of Brockport. “The Kiwanis Club is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to improving the world, one child and one community at a time. The Kiwanis Club of Brockport has been serving the local community for 97 years, Oak Orchard Health has been serving the same communities for 50 years, together they are making positive differences for area children. We are delighted to be able to be a contributor to the Mommy and Me Program,” said Brigitte Duschen, Club Treasurer of the Kiwanis Club of Brockport. Oak Orchard Health joined the Brockport Kiwanis Club four years ago. The relationship has been productive; Oak Orchard staff have volunteered during Kiwanis fundraisers, and a part of those proceeds is now helping children with this donation to the Mommy and Me program.

We have great outside wingers and they’re always ready to cross it in.” “This team has performed so well from the start,” Spencerport head coach Jamie Schneider said. “This is a really special group of athletes and kids. They are really good soccer players and athletes, but their leadership was terrific. They were all invested in putting it all together. “I’m so happy for them because they’ve wanted it for a few years now.

“Getting those two goals; the second one really solidified it for me because I knew there was no way I was letting our team down by letting in two goals. It was a great year for us, and the state championship shows that. “Kind of a crazy moment for me; this was my last time playing with this team and now we get to enjoy the goal of winning a state championship.”

Ogden recognizes two longtime employees upon their retirements On Wednesday, November 8, the Ogden Town Board recognized two longtime employees of the Town of Ogden upon their respective retirements. Dave Fairley is a 40-year veteran of the town and John Eeckhout has served the community for over 35 years. Dave began as a Volunteer Fire Inspector in 1983 and went on to become the town’s Assistant Fire Marshal, which involved conducting fire inspections and assisting with other essential departmental duties. John Eeckhout’s career in public service began in 1987 when he became Ogden’s part-time Dog Warden and in 2003, he became the full-time Animal Control Officer. He has played a critical role in en-

suring the control and protection of common domestic nuisance wildlife in the town. “For decades, John and Dave have been a valuable resource to residents and town staff alike. They have always conducted themselves in a professional manner with integrity and a genuine kindness toward the community,” said Ogden Town Supervisor Mike Zale. “I will miss the knowledge and professionalism these men have brought to town hall each day, but I am excited for them to enjoy retirement with their friends and family. Thank you, John and Dave, for your years of service to the Town of Ogden.” Provided information and photo

County Nutrition Program classes are available to all residents Cornell Cooperative Extension of Monroe County (CCE Monroe) piloted a new program in 2022 called the County Nutrition Program. It was designed to expand access to resources for residents of Monroe County. If you or the organization you work for have been looking for ways to provide your community with nutrition education and resources, see the programs below for opportunities. Programs for adults use evidencebased curriculum that targets behaviors shown to reduce unhealthy weight gain and chronic disease. The County Nutrition Program offers a wide array of topics, mainly focusing on increasing consumption of nutrient dense foods, stretching your food dollar, and increasing physical activity. Children’s programs include interactive nutrition activities, food preparation, active games to keep kids engaged and have fun while they are learning.

The County Nutrition Program frequently offers classes for seniors at town recreation centers, senior centers, and libraries. Topics focus on important subjects like eating healthy on a budget, how nutrition affects bones and joints, heart health, and the importance of physical activity. A lot of families find it difficult to focus on nutrition when they have a busy household or picky eaters at home. Nutrition topics for families offer advice on getting kids involved in the kitchen, planning your meals ahead, stretching your food dollar, and providing balanced nutritious meals to the family. The CCE Monroe County Nutrition Program is funded in part through the County of Monroe. For more information, contact County Nutrition Educator Ally Miller at 585-753-2552 or arm346@cornell.edu.

Tops launches annual Food for Families Campaign Tops Friendly Markets is once again hosting its annual Food for Families Campaign, now in its 17th year, with a goal to provide more than two million meals for neighbors in need. The campaign runs now through December 24, 2023. Tops Food for Families Campaign is synonymous with The Little Brown Bag of Hope. Customers can purchase a Little Brown Bag of Hope paper icon at the register anytime they shop. At the register, customers will be asked if they want to support the campaign by buying a $5, $10, and/or $20 bag for someone in need in our community or to round up their change. Little Brown Bags which are filled with nutritious items that will help families extend

their meal planning, can also be purchased at any self-scan register as well. Virtual Little Brown Bags of Hope will also be available for purchase online by visiting https://www.topsneighborshelpingneighbors.com so no matter what the weather, a donation can be made right from their phone, tablet, or desktop. Here customers can select what food bank they wish their donation to benefit. While donations can be made throughout the campaign until December 24, many locals love the tradition of bringing or purchasing their donation at the store on the day Tops hosts its one-day food drive. Local media sponsors as well as Foodlink food bank staff and volunteers will be at

two Tops locations – 1215 Jefferson Road, Henrietta, and 3507 Mt. Read Boulevard, Greece – on Friday, December 8 to accept donations. “Foodlink is looking forward to partnering with Tops and News 8 once again for our annual Food for Families event,” said Julia Tedesco, President & CEO of Foodlink. “The food and funds collected annually are critical for our food-banking operations during the winter months, and we are incredibly grateful for all of the customers who step up to support their neighbors throughout the campaign.” Provided informtion

Deadline looms for NYS DMV vision tests

RoaD tRIpS wItH BoDINE

Many New Yorkers may be unable to renew their driver’s license because of an expired vision test. Due to COVID, many DMV tests were postponed, but these test requirements were not canceled. The DMV’s website notes that those impacted are those whose license expired between March 1, 2020, and August 31, 2021. If a vision test is not submitted to the DMV by December 1, 2023, the driver’s license will be suspended. Visit the DMV’s website and engage in the system’s online chat services to see if you are impacted. Tops Friendly Markets reminds drivers that its pharmacies are authorized administrators of the NYS Department of Motor Vehicles’ Vision test. Provided information

Opinion/Comments Questions BCSD budget and capital project The budget for the Brockport Central School District has been approved for 2023-2024, which includes supplies and free meals for all students. On December 12, 2023, there will be a vote on Proposition for Capital Improvements. I had three children attend Brockport schools and had to purchase all their school supplies and meals, and that was almost 20 years ago. Now, I am a senior citizen on Social Security with a fixed income, and should not have to pay for these free supplies and meals. Voters, compare your 2022 taxes with 2023 tax-

es. My school taxes have gone up 21 percent, yet Social Security only went up 3.2 percent. Why should senior citizens have to pay so much? We have already paid our share. Why is there a second vote, when it should have been done the first time and eliminate the free supplies and meals? Superintendent Bruno and the School Board need to address this issue. Michael Mosher Brockport

BCSD Superintendent responds to questions First, we thank Mr. Mosher for taking the time to share his concerns. We take concerns and inquiries like these very seriously as it is Brockport Central School District’s fundamental goal to promote transparency in all district-wide decisions. We also thank Westside News for the opportunity to respond. School supplies are funded by our District’s general fund revenue sources which include taxes as well as state aid and federal aid. Taxes were not increased to cover school supplies. We believe it is important for all our students to have the supplies necessary to succeed in school, therefore we established efficiencies in our budget to cover this expenditure. The current percentage of our students eligible for free and reduced lunch qualified our District to participate in a federal program called the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP). This program provides a free breakfast and a free lunch to all students in our District each day. The meal cost is completely paid for through the federal CEP program and New York State aid, leaving no cost to our District or our local taxpayers. When establishing future budgets and potential tax increases, we thoughtfully factor in the current economy and potential impacts to our taxpayers. For the 2023-2024 school year, we recommended, and the voters approved a 1.98% levy increase. Any individual changes to property taxes (increases or

reductions) are due to the function of New York State equalization rates and local assessments, which our District has no control over. Additional information regarding our 2023-24 budget can be found in the Business Department section of our District’s website at www.bcs1.org/Page/1136. We would like to clarify that there is no second vote taking place for our District’s budget. The vote taking place on December 12, 2023, is for a proposed Capital Improvement Project. New York State school districts are required to bring Capital Project propositions to voters. We are delighted to inform everyone that this project has no local tax impact. If you are reading this, you likely have seen our 2023 Brockport CSD Capital Improvement Project Brochure insert in this issue of Westside News. The brochure as well as additional information can also be found in the Business Department section of our District’s website at www.bcs1.org/Page/1255. We will be holding a public information meeting at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, November 28, 2023, in our Hill School Cafetorium. We appreciate hearing from our residents and having the opportunity to provide accurate and transparent information to our community. Sean C. Bruno, Superintendent Brockport Central School District

In honor of Veterans Day, Cindy DiGiacco’s kindergarten class at Village Elementary School in Hilton had a special visitor via Zoom. Sergeant First Class Tim Brugger, who is stationed in Kuwait with the National Guard, showed students tanks and trucks, uniforms, and equipment. He also answered students’ questions that they prepared in their Writers’ Workshop. “The students were so engaged and his own daughters, sixth grader Isabel, third grader Makenna, and first grader Cassandra were able to share in the experience,” said DiGiacco. In addition to thanking Sergeant Brugger for his service, the class donated an ice cream sundae gift basket and pizza certificate to the family.

The program will support approximately 72 children in the school district who will be 4 years old by December 1, 2024. This UPK opportunity is available at no cost to families who reside within the Churchville-Chili District during the 2024-25 school year. There will be a total of four fullday UPK classrooms located within CCCSD elementary schools. The program will run five days a week and will follow the Churchville-Chili School calendar. Selection for the program is based upon a random lottery drawing, and placement cannot be guaranteed at any one school as there are a limited number of spaces available at each building. In order to be considered, the district must receive a completed online application by 5:30 p.m. on January 12, 2024. This application can be

found at www.cccsd.org/universalprek and, once completed, will enter the child into the lottery drawing to be held on February 1, 2024, at 5:30 p.m. The lottery is random; all applications received, whether the first hour they were available or just before the deadline, will have an equal chance. The live lottery drawing can be viewed on the district YouTube Channel. All applicants will be notified through email by February 5, 2024, with their building placement or position on the waitlist. Families selected during this process will receive additional information to complete the registration process and confirm participation. For any UPK questions or assistance, contact the Office of Instruction at 585-293-1800 extension 2310. Completing the lottery application does not guarantee acceptance into this program. Parents on the waitlist will be notified should a space become available. Provided information

SUNY Brockport launches Heroes for the Common Good Program A new program in SUNY Brockport’s School of Business & Management is seeking to reward and invest in some of the brightest stars working in Greater Rochester area non-profits. The Heroes for the Common Good Program offers a scholarship for a student pursuing a Master of Public Administration (MPA) degree or a Nonprofit Management Graduate Certificate through SUNY Brockport and a monthly award for those making a big impact at area non-profits. “SUNY Brockport is deeply committed to making a difference in the communities we serve,” said Michael Doyle, interim dean of the University’s School of Business & Management. “The Heroes for the Common Good Program is a manifestation of that commitment. We want to both provide

an opportunity for those working at non-profits to further their careers by advancing their education and to shine a light on the tremendous impact those working in our area’s non-profit sector make on our communities each and every day.” Scholarship Program Brockport’s School of Business & Management has teamed with Causewave Community Partners to award a $6,000 scholarship to incoming or new students pursuing a SUNY Brockport MPA or Nonprofit Management Graduate Certificate. Recipients must work in the nonprofit sector in the Greater Rochester area when admitted to the program in Fall 2024/at the time of scholarship disbursement.

Heroes for the Common Good Award This monthly award will be presented to an individual working at a Greater Rochester area non-profit in recognition of the work they do each day to make our community a better place. The recipient, who will be selected by the SUNY Brockport School of Business & Management, will receive a certificate and a check for $500. Causewave Community Partners is a co-sponsor of Heroes for the Common Good. More information about the Heroes for the Common Good program, including application information, can be found at https://www2.brockport.edu/academics/ school-business-management/heroes-for-the-common-goodscholarship/.

St. Paul Lutheran Church held a luncheon to mark 125 years of ministry.

St. Paul Lutheran Church celebrates 125 years Blessings on top of blessings were celebrated on November 5 when the St. Paul Lutheran Church family gathered to mark 125 years of ministry. Following worship, about 230 people gathered in the gymnasium for lunch and a presentation highlighting many good moments over the first century and a quarter. Special guests including Joe Lee, Village of Hilton Mayor; Dave Crumb, Hilton Historian; Rev. Dr. Myke Merril, the longest serving clergy member in Hilton; and Rev. Larry Stokovic from Hope Church came to share encouragement with the congregation. St. Paul’s first worship service was held in 1898 with 36 individuals representing 10

families. Today, St. Paul worships 240 per weekend and operates a school drawing children from five different school districts. Provided information and photos

Brockport BFA Thesis Exhibit highlights two budding artists As part of their senior year projects, two visual artists – Merve Duyar and Rosalie Santiago – will show their works in a BFA Thesis Exhibition. The show will be on view at the Tower Fine Arts Center Gallery at SUNY Brockport from November 30 through December 10. The Gallery is located at 180 Holley Street, Brockport, and the exhibition is free and open to the public. Gallery hours are Monday through Friday, noon to 5 p.m.; and Sunday, 1 to 4 p.m. An opening reception will take place on Thursday, November 30, at 4 p.m. Notwithstanding their upcoming graduation, Duyar and Santiago already have something to crow about: Each had pieces in the “Best of SUNY” juried exhibition that has been on display in Albany for the past year. According to associate professor Sara

DiDonato, “applying to juried exhibitions, preparing work for installation, and writing brief statements about work are all part of learning about being a professional artist. The Department of Art is so proud of these exemplary students.” Duyar’s work explores aquatic life. In their artist statement, they write that their work “started as exploration and manifestation of my own personal fears. The unknown can be frightening, and my attempts to make sense of the unknown involve breaking down complex organisms into understandable parts that seem more tangible and accessible.” In her work, Santiago includes “depictions of the different stages that one goes through while on a spiritual journey.” Provided information
