The future of ambulance services in Hilton and Parma

by Tami Raco

The village of Hilton and northern Parma will be losing access to rapid advance life support ambulance services at the end of this year according to Hilton Fire District. HFD has had an ambulance on standby for call in the village since 1936. The Hilton Fire Department was the first fire department in Monroe County to sponsor a volunteer ambulance service more than 80 years ago. The department suspended the volunteer ambulance and moved to an ambulance company that was stationed right at the Fire Department 24 hours a day, seven days a week beginning in 2017. The fate of the residents having a housed local rapid response ambulance will be decided in the next few weeks by the Village.

CHS Mobile Ambulance has been renting space to house an ambulance at the Hilton Fire District to be in immediate response range to answer calls for Hilton and north Parma residents. CHS is a local nonprofit mobile healthcare organization. In order for them to continue providing a rapid response, advanced life support dedicated ambulance 24/7 they are requiring a contract from the district to cover their operating expenses. Recently, a proposal was made requesting to create a village tax district to fund the community’s dedicated ALS ambulance like what is already being done in south Parma in conjunction with Ogden and Spencerport. A proposal was presented to the Village Board Trustees (see graphic) that would cost $457,132 annually. This would include keeping a dedicated ambulance 24/7 at the Fire Hall for rapid response times for life/death calls, an insurance deductible discount, Lift Assistance services, community event ambulance standby services, blood pressure services, CPR training, and other community services. The contract would cost the average homeowner less than $6 a month for these life saving services according to

John Lemcke. The Hilton Village Trustees voted to not create this tax district but utilize the services of regional ambulance services from Monroe Ambulance. (See the statement issued by the Village on this page.)

“Immediate response saves lives,” said John Lemcke. He has worked in the Hilton Fire District for 47 years and has been Fire District Commissioner since 1995. In his nearly 50 years of experience, he has seen critical calls have life saving outcomes thanks to having an ambulance that arrives on scene in two minutes. “Allergic reactions, cardiac arrest, strokes are all emergencies that require immediate response, or it can be a matter of life or death,” said Lemcke. He recalls cases just in the past month where it took Monroe Ambulance 25 minutes to come to a call in the village in cases when the village ambulance was out on a call. According to Hilton FD Ambulance Utilization logs there have been 1,228 calls since the start of the year, an average of 136 calls per month, and the majority of those calls have been in district. “For less than six dollars a month per household we can keep an ambulance in our community to respond to these lifesaving calls in minutes,” said Lemcke.

The Hilton Fire District is encouraging residents to come to their information meeting to learn more about the fate of emergency medical services in their community. “We want the best for our residents, and we are doing our best to provide that,” exclaimed Lemcke.

The information meeting on this impending cancellation of the local ambulance service is Wednesday, October 26, 7 p.m., at the Hilton Fire Department, 120 Old Hojack Lane. The Fire Department is asking residents to attend this critical meeting to learn more about this before the finalization of the vote by the Village Board on November 1.

Statement from Hilton Mayor Joe Lee

The Village of Hilton is having an informational meeting about the continuation of ambulance service at Quest Elementary, 225 West Avenue, on October 24, 2022, at 6 p.m. Both Village and Town officials will be present to answer questions. We encourage you to attend.

There has been a lot of misinformation circulating about this issue, so here are the facts:

Fact: Hilton does not have a community ambulance, nor do we have a volunteer ambulance. The Fire Department abolished the Hilton Volunteer Ambulance in 2018 and arranged CHS to be the provider.

Fact: EMS/ambulance services do not fall in the Fire Department’s jurisdiction – it is the Town and Village. The Fire Department should have turned it over to the Village/Town when they abolished their services.

Fact: Monroe Ambulance, the proposed company, is the largest provider in our area. The Village will monitor their performance monthly.

Fact: On average, our ambulance service receives 1 to 3 calls in the Village/ Town every day.

Fact: CHS wants the Village and Town to fund their current deficit (approx. $250,000).

Fact: If the Town and Village agreed to a tax district, CHS would receive up to $800,000 per year from the tax district plus the amount that they bill the taxpayer for the ambulance service.

Fact: CHS has declared they will leave Hilton on December 31, 2022, if the tax district/subsidy is not approved.

Fact: It is too late to setup a tax district for 2023, the deadline was mid-October. CHS and the Hilton-Parma Fire District did not approach the Village Board until August 2022 with their proposal. This timeframe was simply not long enough for the Village Board to act because of the required advertising window and the need to hold at least one public hearing.

Fact: Monroe will sign a contract with the Village with no subsidy (no tax district). The only payment would be from billing the individual and their insurance company for the ambulance service.

Fact: Monroe Ambulance was the Hilton-Parma Fire Volunteer Ambulance’s ALS resource for years before HPFD disbanded in 2018.

Fact: The Hilton-Parma Fire District is creating panic in the community that is unnecessary.

Fact: The Village must adhere to our procurement policy and go out to bid/ proposal to make sure we are getting the best service and cost for our residents.

Please join us for our informational meeting on October 24 at 6 p.m. – 225 West Avenue – Quest Elementary. (See advertisement on page 5.)

Joe Lee, Mayor Village of Hilton

A dedicated ambulance is currently stationed at the Hilton Fire District around the clock. That is scheduled to end on December 31 if a new tax district/subsidy is not approved by the Village Trustees.

Rochester author to hold book signing at Lift Bridge

Rochester author Clarissa J. Markiewicz will be signing copies of her new mystery, The Paramour Pawn , as well as her Christmas novel, Christmas In Whimsy , at Lift Bridge Book Shop on Saturday, October 29, from noon to 2 p.m.

Just in time for the spooky season, The Paramour Pawn, set at Halloween, introduces friendly local game store owner Eleanor Shore, who finds herself caught up in a small-town murder investigation. She has secret mystical abilities that may help her uncover a devious plot, or that may just get her killed too.

Christmas In Whimsy is a heartwarming story about three women who call on a mystical local legend for help in balancing their topsy-turvy lives. “It’s like a TV holiday movie in a book,” said Markiewicz about her Christmas novel. “I like stories I can cozy up with, stories with characters and places I don’t want to leave and that have just a little bit of magic. ‘Whimsy’ and ‘Pawn’ both offer that, and Lift Bridge is the perfect spot for a signing because the shop gives customers that same warm feeling.”

Lift Bridge Book Shop is located at 45 Main Street, Brockport.

Brockport’s Main Street closing to traffic during Midnight Madness

Bridge to traffic for approximately two hours on Friday, October 28, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. This temporary closure is to ensure the safety of all those participating in the Halloween/Costume Parade during the Brockport Merchants’ “Midnight Madness” event.

Brockport’s On the Canals Excursions wrap for 2022

Brockport officially wrapped up its second year of offering kayaking and biking excursions along the Erie Canal, thanks to the financial support from NYPA and their “On the Canals” program, which has drawn residents and visitors alike to experience the recreational benefits of the Erie Canal and the Erie Canalway Trail.

This year, during weekends in August and September, the Village of Brockport offered free guided kayaking and biking tours from its Welcome Center and adaptive kayak dock. The offerings were enriched by a partnership with Rochester Accessible Adventures and the Erie Canal Boat Company of Fairport, which provided adaptive kayaks and bicycles. Most of the participants came from other communities, including Webster, Scottsville, Rochester, Holley, Brighton, and Buffalo. Participants not only enjoyed the tour, but many stayed on to explore the village, shop, and dine in downtown establishments. In all, Brockport hosted 201 kayakers and 47 cyclists. Marleen Cain was the tour organizer and also served as a tour leader along with Garrett Roe, Coby Albone, and Mathea Linden.

Following the conclusion of the summer On the Canals Excursions, the village loaned its kayaks to SUNY Brockport for a staff event, and its bikes to Brockport Smiles for a team-building day.

The Kayak launch is removed for the winter months when the canal is drained. Removal should happen in early November, weather dependent.

The Village of Brockport looks forward to offering some exciting winter activities with On the Canals Excursions in early 2023.

CCE Monroe garlic seed sale and workshop

Cornell Cooperative Extension of Monroe County is organizing a garlic seed sale and offering an educational workshop to help people be successful in their garlic growing endeavors.

Quality seeds are critical to garlic growing success. The garlic seeds being offered are sourced from Fraser’s Garlic Farm in Churchville. Fraser’s Farm is known for producing superior quality organic certified garlic stock. CCE Monroe is offering one of the most popular varieties – German White hardneck. This variety is great for storage as well as for fresh eating.

For ordering and pickup options, go to https:// monroe.cce.cornell.edu/events/2022/10/12/-organiccertified-garlic-for-sale

Garlic orders can be picked up on Thursday, November 10, or Friday, November 11, between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. at CCE of Monroe County, 2449 St. Paul Boulevard, Rochester.

Although garlic is one of the easiest plants to grow, producing high-quality garlic with large, tasty, fullflavored cloves – while avoiding pests and diseases – requires skill and knowledge. To help people grow their garlic CCE Monroe is offering an online workshop on Wednesday, November 2, from 6 to 7 p.m. During the workshop the participants will learn about planting, care, and harvest, including curing

Check Out Hunger campaign underway at area Wegmans

The annual Check Out Hunger campaign has returned once again to Rochester-area Wegmans stores. The fundraiser provides critical assistance for Foodlink, the regional food bank and public health organization committed to ending hunger and building healthier communities. The point-ofsale campaign allows Wegmans shoppers to donate a few dollars – or simply round up their grocery bill – while checking out at 21 local stores.

This year’s campaign runs through November 26. Shoppers contributed $685,000 toward last year’s campaign.

“Foodlink is incredibly grateful to have the support of Wegmans and its shoppers as the holiday season approaches,” said Julia Tedesco, President & CEO. “Check Out Hunger is an easy way for Rochester-area residents to support our mission of ending hunger and building healthier communities.”

Donations help fund many of Foodlink’s food-related programs and support its food-banking operations across its 10-county service area.

According to Feeding America, more than 11% of people are food insecure in Foodlink’s service area, which means nearly 140,000 residents of Foodlink’s service area have uncertain or limited access to enough healthy food.

Autumn Splendor

by Joanne Dunsmore

The colors of nature have a divine painter. The seeds of eternal living were planted from the beginning. The foliage that grows throughout the Earth, patiently await for its’ rebirth. As the firmament reposes, the cycle of life discloses the wonder of its’ immortality displaying the essence of reality, that our existence is the result of divine omniscience.

Joan (Rosecrants) Pereyra

Joan (Rosecrants) Pereyra, Brockport High School Class of 1960, has died peacefully after a long illness, surrounded by family in California. She was predeceased by her parents, William J. Rosecrants, Jr. and Ruth Arlene (Pask) Rosecrants, and by her brother Stephen W. Rosecrants. She is survived by her loving husband, Herb E. Pereyra; sister Mary K. Rosecrants; four sons: Jack (Jennifer) MacDonough; Tom (Susan) MacDonough; Mark (Wendy) MacDonough, and Bryan (Danny) Pereyra; seven grandchildren, and extended family. Friends and family remember Joan’s enthusiasm and thoughtfulness.

As a teenager, one of Joan’s first jobs was helping to design the window displays for J.C.Penney’s in Medina, NY. After high school, she attended Iowa State University before moving to California with her first husband. There, she became a homemaker and a floral designer with Bloomster’s, in San Jose, and met Herb. She and Herb later joined a community choir, celebrating a love for music first nurtured in the children’s choir at First Presbyterian Church of Brockport and Triple Trio at BHS. She was an avid gardener, traveler, and treasured time spent with family and friends.

According to her wishes, there will be no memorial service; a family-only celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations in her memory may be made to Doctors Without Borders.

She also loved to put on class plays that her students would perform on stage for their parents.

Family was everything to Gail, she was a generous person who loved giving gifts which she would wrap up in fancy embellished packages. She always brought a Wegmans white cake to the party and flowers for all the girls.

New baseball field at Cornell University to be named in honor of Brockport native

A new baseball field at Cornell University will be called Booth Field, honoring Brockport native Richard L. “Rich” Booth for his leadership and generosity over the years – much of it anonymous.

A 1982 graduate of the university, Booth was a pitcher during his playing days. In the four decades since his graduation, Booth has been a major benefactor to Cornell’s athletic department. He endowed the head baseball coaching position, served on the Board of Trustees from 2008 through 2016, led a task force on athletics and financial aid, and served on several board committees. He has also been a member of the Athletics Advisory Council since 2005 and recently joined a new Campaign Committee for Student and Campus Life and Athletics.

“Being a Cornell baseball player was probably one of the most formative experiences of my life,” Booth

told the Cornell Chronicle. “I’ve always wanted to support Cornell baseball and Cornell athletics in general. I had a wonderful time at Cornell, and I want others to have the same experience I had, or better.”

Booth Field is expected to be completed in time for the start of the 2023 baseball season.

Booth’s quiet philanthropy has been felt in the Brockport community as well. In November 2002, he came forward as the anonymous donor of the Sweden Clarkson Community Center building and grounds.

Booth purchased the former Golden Heights property, undertook renovations, and allowed Sweden to be a tenant for a year. He then presented the Town of Sweden with the deed for the Community Center building free and clear. Booth’s donation totaled nearly $3 million.

Booth’s father, Richard Sr., who lives in Canandaigua, told Westside News at the time that his son “is just one of the most generous people I know and he gives these gifts without expecting, or wanting, any fanfare.”

Booth retired as managing director of HBK Investments in 2021. He lives with his wife, Roxanne, in Charlottesville, Virginia. They have three children – J.T., Morgan, and Rachel.

“Roxanne and I have both felt very lucky to have had the experiences we’ve had and we value the opportunity to stay involved,” he told the Cornell Chronicle. “We’ve always believed that giving our time and money to make opportunities available for the next generation was important.”
