With great sadness the staff at the Tri-Town News and
its sister newspaper in Greene must share with our readers
the news of the untimely death of Kenneth “Ken” Paden,
owner-publisher, on Monday, May 25.
On a day when we remember those who have died in
service to their country, we must also speak of our grief
in the loss of not only our employer, but a unique man
who has been a friend to all of us. Ken’s nearly 40 years
with this community newspaper and, until its sale several
years ago, Sidney Favorite Printing, has earned him the
respect and affection of many.
Quiet and unassuming, Ken’s dedication and hard work
to provide a quality newspaper for the community, and
his devotion to his family – wife Sue and daughters Kelly
and Kristy – as well as to his newspaper family, identified
him as a caring man with high ideals and a compassionate heart.
Ken, we will miss you.
ACCO Brands’ Commitment to Sidney
Is Being Recognized by Sidney C of C
SIDNEY – ACCO Brands
has been an important part of
the Sidney community for 69
years, and this year the Sidney
Chamber of Commerce is recognizing the company as the
2015 Business of the Years.
Located near the airport at
101 O’Neil Road, the ACCO
Brands Sidney business unit
began as Keith Clark in New
York City in 1923. It relocated
to downtown Sidney in 1946
and moved to its present location in 1970. Known as AT-AGLANCE in the late 1990s,
the company was acquired by
the Mead Corp. in 1999 and
became MeadWestvaco in
January 2002 when Mead and
Westvaco merged. In 2012, it
merged with ACCO Brands. It
is currently the area’s second
largest employer with approximately 650 employees.
Jeff Almasian, General
Manager at ACCO Brands
stated, “Our people are our
greatest asset. This award is a
direct reflection of their hard
work, dedication and commitment to exceeding our
customer’s expectations.” Almasian goes on to say, “Our
community and our region,
are important to us. We are
committed to be actively involved in the communities
where our employees reside
and in the organizations that
enrich the educational and
cultural experiences available
in our region”.
The ACCO Brands Corporation, a global office products
manufacturer with almost
6,000 employees worldwide,
also strongly values the Sidney site, investing over $20M
in new capabilities and equipment, since the merger. Last
year, 31 new employees were
hired in Sidney, and this year
the company is expecting to
hire another 15 employees.
ACCO Brands and its predecessors have had a representative on the Sidney
Chamber of Commerce for 30
years, and have provided major support for the Chamber’s
activities. In 2014, the company was a primary sponsor
of the Chamber’s Jolly Holly
Days celebration and provided
a float for the parade.
The company also provides
financial and product donations to many organizations
and projects that enrich the
lives of local residents. It is
a major supporter of Keith
Clark Park and the new Sidney Veterans Memorial Park
under development.

ACCO Brands is proud of
the contributions its employees make to the community.
To show appreciation for these
efforts, the company created
a billboard message in 2013
that read: “Together, the good
we do accumulates. Celebrating employee volunteers who
touch our communities.”
While ACCO Brands’ commitment to the community is a
high priority, the company also
prioritizes the needs of its employees by providing competitive wages, health insurance,
401K options, educational stipends and paid sick-leave and
vacations. The Sidney ACCO
Brands facility has been designated as a Fit-Friendly Gold
Award site by the American
Heart Association. Employees
have access to a fitness center
on-site, a one-mile walking
trail and a full service cafeteria with healthy options.
The Sidney Chamber of
Commerce recognizes ACCO
Brands contributions to the
community and looks forward
to officially recognizing the
company at the annual Chamber dinner on Friday, June 5, at

Sidney American Legion
Recruiting New Legion Riders
SIDNEY- Saturday, May 30
at 11 a.m., the newly formed
American Legion Riders
Chapter 183 will hold a membership recruiting meeting at
the Sidney American Legion
post, 22 Union St.
The American Legion Riders is a national program administered by the departments
and posts of the American
Legion. The ALR was first
established as a local post
program in 1993 at Post 396,
Garden City, Mich., and has
since grown to over 1,500 local “chapters” worldwide in
2014. The 2015 current national membership is roughly
106,000 Riders, all of whom
are current members of The
American Legion, The American Legion Auxiliary, and
The Sons of The American
Legion.
Riders raise and donate hundreds of thousands of dollars
annually to countless national,
state, and local programs and
charities for veterans, military
families, and local communities. The ALR is not a motorcycle club, but rather an association of like-minded Legion
Family members who enjoy
family activities and the opportunity to advance the aims
and goals of the American
Legion.
We are looking for riders
who hold a current valid motorcycle license and own a
motorcycle. Riders also must
either be a current member of
any post of the American Legion, American Legion Auxiliary or Sons of the American
Legion, or be eligible to become a member of either.
For more information on
how to become a member, email [email protected]
or contact Gene Schoeck at

engine, fuselage, and cabin
were totally restored. A new
instrument panel including a
GPS, have also been installed.
With its glistening new yellow
and white paint, this Cessna
195 has truly become a classic
vintage aircraft. Its first flight
at the Sidney Airport will be
exciting to see.

FROM
N.Y. STATE SENATOR
JAMES L. SEWARD
Paying Tribute To Our Veterans
As the New York State Senate takes up a number of vital
issues over the closing weeks
of the 2015 legislative session there is still some time
to break from the daily debate
and focus attention on individuals who have gone the extra
mile. This past week, just before Memorial Day, afforded
just such an opportunity with
a special ceremony to honor
the exceptional men and women of the military who have
served and sacrificed for our
nation in the armed forces.
Each and every veteran
deserves our recognition and
thanks for defending our nation and protecting our way
of life. One way the state senate has seen fit to honor our
veterans is through a special
on-line hall of fame. Established in 2005, the New York
State Senate Veterans’ Hall of
Fame pays tribute to outstanding veterans from across the
Empire State expressing our
gratitude and admiration for
their heroic deeds.
This year, it gives me great
pride to recognize Colonel
Anthony Gabriel, Jr. of Herkimer as a 2015 inductee to the
hall of fame. Gabriel proudly
served our nation for a total of
thirty-six years in the United
States Army, enlisting as a
buck Private in 1948 and retiring as a full Colonel in 1984.
He performed at an exemplary level during his time in
the European Theater, Korean
War zones and while training
his successors.
In his civilian life, he has
been a devoted community
leader; serving as village trustee, Herkimer Boxing Club
president, 4th degree knight/
life member of the Knights of
Columbus, and helped build
many Mohawk Valley landmarks as a past president/life
member of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters & Joiners of America.
He is also a life member/
past post commander of Michael Pliseck V.F.W. Post
#4915. He served on the committee that was the first in the
nation to send WWII veterans
to Washington, DC, to visit
their WWII memorial.
Gabriel helped establish
the Veterans Memorial Park
monument on the Herkimer
County Community College
campus and his name is one of
ten Gabriel family members
names etched on the monument honoring his family’s
over 110 years of active duty
service from World War I to
present day.
A special senate resolution
adopted in recognition of the
2015 honorees reads in part:
WHEREAS,
Members
of the armed services from
the state of New York, who
have served so valiantly and
honorably in wars in which
this country’s freedom was at
stake, as well as in the preservation of peace in peacetime,
deserve a special salute from
this legislative body; and
WHEREAS, The banner
of freedom will always wave
over our beloved New York
and all of America, the land of
the free and the home of the
brave; and
WHEREAS, The freedoms
and security we cherish as
Americans come at a very
high price for those serving in
the military in times of conflict; it is fitting and proper
that we who are the beneficiaries of those who risk
their lives, must never forget
the courage with which these
men and women served their
country.
There are many more tales
of valor and distinguished
service like Gabriel’s and the
New York State Senate Veterans’ Hall of Fame is an ideal
venue to trumpet the meritorious service of our military
members. If you are interested in reading more about
inductees, past and present,
you can do so on-line through
my website, www.senatorjimseward.com.
Along with honoring our
veterans, we should not forget their families – mothers,
fathers, daughters, and sons
– who also participated in the
rich tradition of military life.
Finally, I want to say thank
you to all who have served and
are currently serving our nation. Your courage, sacrifice
and achievement are something each and every American can be proud of.

renovation campaign to prepare for the 100th anniversary
of the first service held in Sidney in 1868. This has included
the demolition of the old parish house, barn and garage and
the erection of a new parish
house matching the church. A
new garage has been erected
and the rectory has been sided
and painted. The renovation
program has included new
heating in all the buildings
and provision of space for the
various activities of the parish.
The completion of this project
in 1968 will mark 100 years of

George and Robert James
are practicing up for the General Clinton Canoe Regatta.
The brothers have been in both
previous races and last year
won the youth race from Oneonta to Bainbridge. This year
they are among the 27 contestants in the 70-mile race.
General James Clinton
found the water at the mouth
of Otsego Lake so shallow
in 1779 that he was forced to
build a dam at the end of the
lake to get enough water to
float his canoe bateaux down
river on his famous Indian
Expedition from which this
week’s General Clinton Canoe
Regatta from Cooperstown to
Bainbridge got its name. His
force included 1,800 men,
three month’s provisions and
200 boats. He was to proceed
from Albany, up the Mohawk
to Canajoharie, crossing to
Otsego Lake then down the
Susquehanna to Tioga Point
(Athens, Pa.) where he was to
join forces with General John
Sullivan. The bateaux floated
downstream 30 miles the first
day while the troops went 16
hiking. The lake had been
raised about three feet and
the sudden freshet of water
swelled the almost dry stream
for a distance of 100 miles. As
far south as Tioga, the rise in
water was great enough to flow

remodeling program added
a space of 20 feet by 70 feet,
nearly doubling the floor area.
Postmaster Lee Murphy reports he has had 493 requests,

Turnpike.
Tri-Town News — Thursday, May 28, 2015 — 5
Regatta Row Chair Auction
Caps Win-Win Arts Event
BAINBRIDGE – For 14
lucky bidders the culmination
auction of the first ever Regatta Row – Art Trail painted
paddle chair project will literally take “a front row seat”
in memories of the 53rd Annual General Clinton Canoe
Regatta.
For others, particularly
those with ties to the tri-town
area, the event has been part of
a re-unification, melding memories of the river culture and
local history through creative
craftsmanship and artistic expression as well as through
coordinating volunteer help
from the community.
Brain child of the Jericho
Arts Council’s (JAC) Gallery
Committee, and subsequently
spearheaded by committee
member Nancy Kitchen, the
event evolved from the Nov.
grant possibility proposal
to JAC and presentation at a
Reunite Bainbridge meeting,
through Jan. grant application
deadlines with the Chenango
County Council of the Arts,
ongoing fundraising, the
crafting of chairs by Riverside
Farms owner Dan Stoltzfus, to
the May 2 “Meet the Artists
Fest” and finally, the May 23
ending auction conducted by
Ron Ingham.
A giant chair, made from a
pattern by Dan Stoltzfus and
donated by Bainbridge Town
Councilman Dave DeClue,
was a major advertisement and
attraction originally located
by the Bainbridge Town Hall
door. Those taking photos of
friends and family in the “hot
seat” put a new twist on fun
and festivities as well as facebook postings.
Following the May 23 presentation of artist gifts funded
by a decentralization grant
awarded through the Chenango County Council of the Arts,
awards for winners with “first
chair” status in the form of
“People’s Choice” votes were
presented. Massachusetts artist Cyndy Patterson Weeks
with “Paddling My Own Canoe” and Birte Jorgensen with
“Moss Pillow Dreams” tied for
first. Honorable Mention/Runner Up recognition for Wendy
Stanton and James Price was
announced with note that they
are from the ARC Otsego
Main View Gallery and Studio. Ian Tonnessen won the
bid for their “Monsters Garden by the River.”
Weeks’ chair, which previously won for Most Creative
and was partially inspired
by her experience helping
tri-town area relatives recover from being flooded out,
also sold for the highest bid.
Owner Miranda Robinson, attending her father’s induction
into the Regatta Hall of Fame,
commented that it fits because
she really does paddle her
own canoe.
Jorgensen’s concept of
dream clouds seen while lying on the mossy ground,
captured Best in Show as well
as the bid of John Haddad
who also bought Christopher
Lloyd Wright’s winner of the
Mayor’s Award for best representation of Bainbridge, the
regatta or the region.
Ann Relic was the highest bidder for Karyn MeyerBerthel’s creativity Honorable Mention “Regatta Row”
and “Splash of Color” by the
Golden Artist Colors design
team. It was noted that Golden Artist Colors donated materials, funds and expertise as
well as painting a chair.
“Maple Leaf Relief” by
New Jersey artist Germaine
Alcaro went to Ruth Lind and
Kristy DeGroat won the bid
for Sherri Lane’s tribute to
Bainbridge dairy farms.
Cookie Witham’s birds of
happiness chair brought happiness to Olaf and Margaret
Tonnessen who took it home
to Connecticut.
“Susquehanna Reflections”
by Cindy Craver Johnson and
“Returning Hunter” by Phil
and Elise Craver “returned”
to Bainbridge in the hands of
Michael Johnson.
Wil Spalholz won the bid
for Ellen Lockhart’s chair
featuring the Borden story
bovines Elsie and Elmer, and
Hans Spalholz had a lucky
“break” which brought him
the bid for the chair he designed to promote the passion
for playing pool.
Samantha Spalholz’ chair
“Forever Enchanted” will forever enchant bid winner Bret
Davenport.
Whether you voted for
People’s Choice or not, bid or
didn’t, if you saw those chairs
and appreciated the craftsman
who made them, the message
and media expertise of the artists who painted them, you are
a winner. Don’t let the 2015
Regatta Row – Art Trail canoe paddle chair project take a
backseat in your memory. Let
it be an inspiration to continue
cultivating the love of the arts,
history and community spirit
in the future
We Apologize
The Jericho Garden Club
of Bainbridge members do an
outstanding job of beautifying
their community. Last week
we ran a photo of the members at their annual planting
day. We apologize for a typographical error - it should have
read Jeanne not Joanne Cherniak as one of the members
pictured, and Colleen Winn

REPRESENTATIVES FROM ACCO BRANDS Charitable Contribution Committee,
Anne Niles and Dan Bartz, are shown here with some grateful members of the local
Boys and Girls Club.
ACCO Brands Is Generous Every Calendar Day
SIDNEY - On a bitterly
cold winter’s day this January,
my mind was flooded with
worries. As a new executive
director of The Boys and Girls
Club, I witnessed young people coming in without coats,
boots, mittens, hats or the
normal gear that one would
expect a young person walking in below zero weather to
have on. However, the youth of
Sidney continued to come and
seek the warmth, comfort and
safety that the staff and board
of director’s strive to offer to
our youth every day. At night,
their faces would continue to
flash through my mind, not allowing sleep to come easily.
The following day, I made
calls to local companies,
friends of the boys and girls
club in the past, and explained
how dire the situation was for
our youth and their families.
I was able to speak in person
to Ann Niles from ACCO
Brands, who took up the cause
and assured me that ACCO
Brands would help. Indeed,
they did! A check for $2,000
arrived in the mail shortly
thereafter, which went a long
way in being able to provide
assistance with a coat drive,
clothing drives and even a six
week cooking class which the
children and families enjoyed.

HARPURSVILLE - Are
you now or were you ever a
resident of the Town of Colesville and the surrounding
area? Were you ever a student at Harpursville Central
School? Are you a history
buff or do you speak four or
five languages besides your
own? If you answered ‘yes’ to
any of these questions, then
you already may know about
Erwin.
Erwin Kahn passed away
July 28, 2014. He was an historian; a relentless researcher, a
record-keeper extraordinaire;
a photographer as it related to
his passion for saving a record
of all things important to local history. He knew several
languages, at times working
as an interpreter. For 18 years
Erwin taught in Spain and the
U.S. He graduated from Harpursville Central School in
1964 and from SUNY New
Paltz in 1968. For many years
he was passionately active in
the Alumni Association at
HCS.
In Erwin’s memory, locally and nation-wide, friends
are giving money to fund a
scholarship to be awarded to
a student who is graduating
from HCS in June of this year.
If you would like to support
his effort, mail your contribution to: Harpursville Central
School, Attn: Jill Andrews,
PO Box 147, Harpursville,
NY 13787. Checks should be
made out to Harpursville Central School with “E. Kahn” on
the memo line. To be included
in this year’s award, money
should be received by the end
of May.
School personnel will select
a student who “will further
his/her education in the fields
of history and/or languages
and who works toward goals
with diligence, one of Erwin’s
many talents.” This will be
an annual award with an ongoing account managed by the
school. If you can, remember
to donate next year and following years.
Erwin Kahn was a unique
individual whose legacy for
the Town of Colesville and beyond will not be equaled any
time soon. The materials left
for us, the example of his work
ethic, all are irreplaceable.

Donate Blood in Honor of
World Blood Donor Day
The American Red Cross
seeks eligible donors to give
blood in honor of World Blood
Donor Day, June 14, and
throughout the summer to help
ensure a sufficient blood supply
for patients in need.
Summer is an especially difficult time to collect enough
blood to meet the needs of hospital patients. Many schools
that host blood drives are out of
session during the summer, and
regular donors are often vacationing, potentially making
them less available to give.
Those who come to donate
blood with the Red Cross June
8-14 will receive a limited-edition Nexcare give bandage in
one of eight global-inspired designs in honor of World Blood
Donor Day.
Every day this summer is
a chance to give hope. Eligible donors are encouraged
to choose their day to make a
difference. Donors of all blood
types – especially those with
types O negative, A negative
and B negative – are needed.
To make an appointment to
give blood, download the
Red Cross Blood Donor App,
visit redcrossblood.org or call
1-800-RED CROSS (1-800733-2767).

2015 Tri-Town Relay For Life Raises
$70,000 for American Cancer Society
SIDNEY - The American Cancer Society Tri-Town Relay For Life held its 11th
Annual event at General Clinton Park in Bainbridge on May 9. This year we tried
something new starting at 11 a.m and ending at 11 p.m. We also had a breakfast put
on by Boy Scout Troop 88 of Sidney at 8 a.m. Opening ceremony was at 11 a.m. and
featured Frank Joseph Cepero singing the National Anthem. Survivor Terri Barnhart was our guest speaker and told her story of surviving this disease. Pastor Larry
Bailey gave the Blessing. Local Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, and Girl Scouts, lined the
track to salute our 48 survivors who were taking the first lap of the event. Survivors
were honored by joining together for a nice dinner.
Throughout the day we enjoyed entertainment from Frank Joseph Cepero and
students, the ABC Center for Performing Arts Dancers, Carle School of Irish Dance,
Zumba, as well as team fundraisers including the golf ball drop. This year the theme
was “Heroes of Hope” so team sites were decorated in something to represent their
hero. Each team had a team lap which was a lot of fun for everyone.
Music, activities, walking and fun took place all through the day with our DJ Greg
Davie and music provided by Noel Goodspeed and Dan Heuer.
The Carle School of Irish Dance led us into our luminary ceremony. About 1,200
candles were glowing in honor or in memory of a loved one who either survived or
lost their battle to this disease. Judy Pitel sung “Hero” during this ceremony. The
scrolling was done on the stage area. This ceremony was just beautiful.
Team Awards:
Winner of Best Decorated site was – Paterson’s People – Mash Unit – Patriotic
Winner of Most Original Fundraiser was – Gary’s Lion Pride – Golf Ball Drop
Winner of Best Team Lap award was – Gary’s Lion Pride – Farm Theme
Thanks to our dedicated relay committee, team captains, participants, sponsors,
and the wonderful support of the people in our great community the grand total for
this event to date is $70,000. We have until August for donations to count for our
2015 year. If anyone has more donations to send in, send to our local office of the
American Cancer Society, 5 Oak Ave, Sidney, NY 13838.
Money from this event will go toward research, education, advocacy, and services
for cancer patients. We, at the American Cancer Society, want to say thank you to
all our community. It is our goal, with your help and support, to one day find a cure
for this disease. American Cancer Society contact 1-800-227-2345.

Village of Sidney Annual Drinking Water Quality Report for 2014
21 Liberty Street Sidney, NY 13838
INTRODUCTION
To comply with State and Federal regulations, the Village of
Sidney annually issues a report describing the quality of your
drinking water. The purpose of this report is to raise your understanding of drinking water and awareness of the need to protect our drinking water sources. Last year, your tap water met
all New York State drinking water health standards. This report
provides an overview of last year’s water quality. Included are
details about where your water comes from, what it contains,
and how it compares to State standards.
We want you to be informed about your drinking water. If
you have any questions about this report or concerning your
drinking water, please contact Shane Nordberg, Chief Water
Operator (607) 561-2330.
WHERE DOES OUR WATER COME FROM?
In general, the sources of drinking water (both tap water and
bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs,
springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land
or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of
animals or from human activities. Contaminants that may be
present in source water include: microbial contaminants; inorganic contaminants; pesticides and herbicides; organic chemical contaminants; and radioactive contaminants. In order to
ensure that tap water is safe to drink, New York State and the
EPA prescribe regulations which limit the amount of certain
contaminants in water provided by public water systems. The
State Health Department’s and the FDA’s regulations establish
limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the
same protection for public health.
Water for the Village of Sidney is supplied by two well supplies. The Village also has two reservoir supplies currently not
in use but available for backup if needed.
Primary Well – Developed in 1988. This is our primary water
supply and pumps at a rate of 780-800 gallons per minute. An
800 gallon per minute pump restriction was placed on this well
due to the proximity of the former Amphenol lagoons.
Secondary Well – Developed in 1946. This well is our secondary supply and is exercised but generally is not pumped for
any extended periods of time. It has a pumping capacity of 425
gallons per minute. (The water from this well tends to have a
higher manganese content than our primary well).
Storage Tank – The Village of Sidney has one in-system storage tank constructed of pre-stressed concrete with a storage capacity of 2 million gallons.
Additional Storage – The Village of Sidney has two upland
reservoir systems as standby storage with capacities of 86 million and 45 million gallons.
We are fortunate to have a very prolific aquifer capable of furnishing about 4 times our normal water requirement, although
we have had some problems with manganese, a naturally occurring dissolved metal very similar to iron with associated problems of staining and black particles in water that are considered
a nuisance but not a health concern.
FACTS AND FIGURES
The Village of Sidney Water System serves a population of
approximately 3,900 residents in the Village of Sidney and portions of Riverside, East Guilford and adjacent areas. There are
approximately 1,500 service connections including residential,
commercial and industrial customers. The total water produced
in 2014 was 272,902,000 gallons. The daily average of water
treated and pumped into the distribution system from our primary and/or secondary well is 747,383 gallons per day. Our
highest single day usage was 1,137,000 gallons. Water usage
included all water furnished for consumption, fire flows and
losses. Because water usage for Village residential customers
is not metered, the amount of losses in the system is unknown.
In 2001 the water rate was lowered by 5% the flat rate per unit
was $25.41 per quarter and the metered rate was $2.032 per
1000 gallons. Those rates remained constant in 2002, 2003, and
2004. In 2005 the flat rate increased to $27.95 per unit, and
the metered rate went to $2.236 per 1000 gallons. Those rates
remained constant in 2006, and 2007. In 2008 the flat rate increased to $34.10 per unit and the metered rate went to $2.728
per 1000 gallons. In 2010 the flat rate increased to $36.85/quarter per unit and the metered rate went to $2.948 per 1000 gals.
The typical annual flat rate charge for a residential water customer is $147.40 billed in equal quarterly installments of $36.85
and remained the same rates in 2012 and 2013.
WATER TREATMENT
Our water system includes a treatment facility which treats
water from our primary well or secondary well or both. Controls are capable of handling variable flow rates automatically.
Treatment consists of:
• Sequestering – to control manganese. Sequestering also
has the effect of providing corrosion control.
• Fluoridation – to adjust the fluoride level from a natural
level of less than 0.2 ppm to 1.0 part per million.
• Chlorination using liquid chlorine – Controls include automatic pacing of chlorine added, based on water flow rate,
automatic analysis for monitoring the end result, and alarms
with a dialer system to warn if levels are not within acceptable limits. The chlorine level at the treatment facility is
1.2 ppm. We are required to maintain a residual of 0.2 ppm
throughout the system.
ARE THERE CONTAMINANTS IN OUR DRINKING
WATER?
The Village of Sidney performs all testing as required by
New York State regulations. We routinely test your drinking
water for numerous contaminants. The water system is operated
by and samples are collected and processed by New York State
licensed operators. Samples are analyzed at our laboratory and
at NYS certified commercial laboratories.
Daily testing consists of:
1. Chlorine Residual – twice per day to verify the disinfection
system operation.
2. Fluoride – to monitor our adjusted fluoride level, and
3. pH
Monthly testing consists of:
6 samples for coliform bacteria
Manganese levels (voluntary).
Phosphate Testing
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) which include solvents and cleaning fluid compounds such as TCE (trichloroethylene), Cis 1,2 dichloroethylene, chloroform, benzene,
carbon tetrachloride, trihalomethanes, and MTBE (methyltert-butyl-ether, a gasoline additive).
We test for 54 compounds in this group. Maximum contamination levels (M.C.L.’s) are 5 ppb (parts per billion) of each
item. Of these, typically we have no detection of 52 of these
compounds.
In the past we have generally detected TCE levels from 1.9
to 4.0 parts per billion and Cis 1,2 dichloroethylene at levels
from 1.2 to 2.5 parts per billion at our primary well. In 2013,
the monthly average for TCE was 2.37 ppb. The monthly average for Cis 1,2 dichloroethylene was 1.62 ppb. These levels have
been historically very consistent. In 2001 we detected benzene
in 1 of the 12 samples at a level of 0.9 ppb. In 2002, 2003, 2004
and 2005 benzene was not detected in any sample and has not
been detected since 2005. In 2005 we detected bromodichloromethane (a byproduct of chlorination for disinfection), in 1
of the 12 samples at a level of 0.73 ppb. In 2006 we detected
bromodichloromethane in 1 of 12 samples at a level of 0.9 ppb
and Chlorobromomethane in 2 of 12 samples at levels of 0.51
ppb and 1.0 ppb. In 2008 we had no detection of bromodichloromethane, or Chlorobromomethane. In 2008 we detected
Chloromethane (also a byproduct of chlorination for disinfection) in 1 of 12 samples at a level of 0.8 ppb. In 2010, 2011, 2012,
2013 and 2014 we had no detection of bromodichloromethane,
Chlorobromomethane, Chloromethane.
The greatest concern with respect to these items is whether
they would increase to exceed acceptable limits. Groundwater
studies of flows, flow directions and groundwater qualities are
ongoing.
Quarterly testing consists of:
Quarterly tests for VOC’s are performed on our secondary
well (standby well) with results similar to our primary well.
Annual testing consists of:
Nitrate – 2014 result = 66 ug/l (MCL 10,000 ug/l)
Manganese: The latest certified manganese sampling was
above the MCL for manganese. This MCL is considered to be
based on aesthetics rather than on a health risk.
The Village adds a sequestering agent to the water (health department approved) to help control the effects of manganese in
the water (i.e.; black flakes and staining); the Village performs
monthly sampling to further monitor manganese levels. This
process testing has indicated that levels of manganese in the last
year may be as high as 0.49 ppm (490 ppb) with an average of
0.448 ppm (448 ppb).
3 year testing consists of:
1. 20 samples for lead (2013 result) - 20 samples were tested
for lead with none exceeding the action level of 0.015 mg/l.
2. 20 samples for copper (2013 result) - 20 samples were tested
for copper with 90 % being less than 386 ug/l (AL-1300
ug/l)
3. Synthetic Organic Compounds (SOC’s) – 2013 result including pesticides – no detection.
4. Inorganic Compounds Group I & II and sodium & corrosivity. The Village is required to perform 3-year testing of inorganic compounds Group I and II, which include manganese.
The village has elected to perform annual certified testing
of these items which results are reported in the appendix.
5. Total Haloacetic Acids – 2014 result = 3.43 ug/L (MCL 60
ug/L)
6. Trihalomethanes – 2014 result 7.84 ug/l (MCL 100 ug/l)
9 year testing
Radiological & Radon
Radiological testing was performed in 2010. The results were
Gross Alpha 2.28 +/- 1.02 pCi/l, which has an MCL of 15 pCi/l
Gross Beta 4.03 +/-1.03 pCi/L (MCL of 15), MCL of 5 pCi/l.
The Village of Sidney is continuing voluntary testing for
Radon, Radium 226, and Radium 228 on an annual basis. The
current NYS Health Department requirement is testing every
9 years. In the year 2014, we collected 1 sample for radon. The
result was 847.7 pCi/l. (see “Information on Radon” later in this
report). One sample was processed for Radium 226 with a result
of 0.19 pCi/l, and 1 sample for Radium 228 with a result of
0.9 pCi/l, Compared to 488.5 pCi/l, 0.12, and 0.17 pCi/l respectively in 2012.
In 2004 additional testing conducted by the U.S. Department of the Interior throughout the Upper Susquehanna River Basin consisted of a wide range of elements and chemicals including nutrients, trace metals, common anions and
cations, volatile organic compounds and Radon 222. Radon 222 was detected at a level of 1050 pCi/l. No mcl has
been established for Radon at this time. A complete list of
the analytes detected, and their detection limits is on file
and can be viewed at the Village Clerk’s office in the Sidney
Civic Center 21 Liberty Street.
It should be noted that all drinking water, including bottled
drinking water, may be reasonably expected to contain at least
small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health
risk. More information about contaminants and potential health
effects can be obtained by calling the EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791) or the NYS Department of Health,
Oneonta District Office (607-432-3911).

DEFINITIONS
Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL): The highest level of
a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCL’s are set
as close to the MCLG’s as feasible.
Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG): The level of
a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known
or expected health risk. MCLG’s allow for a margin of safety.
Action Level (AL): The concentration of a contaminant
which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements
which a water system must follow.
Non-Detects (ND): Laboratory analysis indicates that the
constituent is not present.
Milligrams per liter (mg/l): Corresponds to one part of liquid in one million parts (parts per million – ppm).
Micrograms per liter (ug/l): Corresponds to one part of liquid in one billion parts (parts per billion – ppb).
Picocuries per liter (pCi/l): A measure of radioactivity in
water.
WHAT DOES THIS INFORMATION MEAN?
As you can see by the table, our system had no violations.
We have learned through our testing that some contaminants
have been detected; however, these contaminants were detected
below New York State requirements. Trichloroethylene (TCE)
was detected but below the MCL. It was detected in our primary well and our secondary well at the average of 2.37 ppb and
1.1 ppb respectively. Cis 1,2 Dichloroethylene was also detected
but below the MCL. It was detected in our primary well and our
secondary well at the average of 1.62 ppb, and .85 respectively.
The likely source of this type of contamination is through discharge from industrial factories or metal degreasing sites. The
source of these low levels of contamination has been identified
and an action plan has been established through the combined
effort of the Village of Sidney, The NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, The NYS Department of Health and
the local industry believed to be responsible for the contamination. This action plan is on file at the Sidney Civic Center
and may be implemented if the contaminants were to reach the
MCL during a testing period.
IS OUR WATER SYSTEM MEETING OTHER
REGULATIONS THAT GOVERN OPERATIONS?
During 2014, our system was in compliance with all applicable State drinking water requirements (except manganese)
See manganese under “annual testing” and “system improvements planned”. A supplement to this report containing analytical testing results from samples collected from the Village of
Sidney water supply is available for inspection at the Village
of Sidney Civic Center. For additional information on the Village of Sidney Annual Drinking Water Quality Report for 2014,

CRYPTOSPORIDIUM AND GIARDIA
INFORMATION
New York State law requires water suppliers to notify their
customers about the risk of cryptosporidium and giardia. Cryptosporidosis and giardiasis are intestinal illnesses caused by microscopic parasites. Cryptosopridiosis can be very serious for
people with weak immune systems, such as chemotherapy, dialysis or transplant patients, and people with Crohn’s disease or
HIV infection. People with weakened immune systems should
discuss with their health care providers the need to take extra
precautions such as boiling water, using a certified bottled water
or a specialty approved home filter. Individuals who think they
may have cryptosporidiosis or giardiasis should contact their
health care provider immediately. For additional information
on cryptosporidiosis or giardiasis, please contact the NYS Department of Health, Oneonta District Office at (607) 432-3911
to obtain detailed fact sheets or call the DOH Duty Officer at
1-866-881-2809 during non-office hours.
The Village of Sidney obtains all of its water from drilled
wells. As the Health Department fact sheets note:
Properly drilled and maintained wells that use ground water are generally protected from surface contamination and are
UNLIKELY to contain cryptosporidiosis or giardiasis.
INFORMATION ON RADON
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas found in soil
and outdoor air that may also be found in drinking water and
indoor air. Some people exposed to elevated radon levels over
many years in drinking water may have an increased risk of getting cancer. Radon can enter indoor air from soil under homes.
The main risk to persons exposed to radon through indoor air is
lung cancer. There currently is no MCL for radon. For additional information call the NYS Radon Program (1-800-458-1158)
or call EPA’s Radon Hotline (1-800-SOS-Radon).
DO I NEED TO TAKE SPECIAL
PRECAUTIONS?
Although our drinking water met or exceeded state and federal regulations, some people may be more vulnerable to disease causing microorganisms or pathogens in drinking water
than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons
such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons
who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS
or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can
be particularly at risk from infections. These people should
seek advice from their health care provider about their drinking water. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen
the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium, Giardia and other microbial pathogens are available from the Safe Drinking Water
Hotline (800-426-4791).
Note: Water customers who are on home dialysis should contact the Village of Sidney at 561-2330 in order to be placed on
our water prioritization list.
WATER CONSERVATION
Although our system has an adequate amount of water to
meet present and future demands, there are a number of reasons
why it is important to conserve water:
• Saving water saves energy and some of the costs associated
with both of these necessities of life.
• Saving water reduces the cost of energy required to pump
water and the need to construct costly new wells, pumping
systems and water towers; and
• Saving water lessens the strain on the water system during
a dry spell or drought, helping to avoid severe water use
restrictions so that essential fire fighting needs are met.
Water metering is generally considered the first step toward
water conservation. Industrial, commercial and some multifamily residences are metered. Single family residences are not
metered.
You can play a role in conserving water by becoming con-

scious of the amount of water your household is using, and by
looking for ways to use less whenever you can. It is not hard to
conserve water. Conservation tips include:
• Checking inside faucets for leaks. Even a faucet with a small
drip can waste a lot of water.
• Keeping showers to five minutes or less in length, or by taking baths.
• Turning off the water when brushing your teeth.
• Installing water saving shower heads or flow restrictors.
• Keeping a pitcher of water in the refrigerator, so you won’t
have to run the tap to cool it.
• Using Automatic dishwashers and clothes washers for full
loads only.
• Checking your toilets for leaks by putting a few drops of
food coloring in the tank, watch for a few minutes to see if
the color shows up in the bowl. It is not uncommon to lose
up to 100 gallons a day from one of these otherwise invisible
toilet leaks. Fix it and you save more than 30,000 gallons a
year.
• Using a broom to sweep your driveway, garage or sidewalk
instead of using water.
• Planting drought resistant trees and plants.
• Saving dishwater, bath water and air conditioning water for
use on ornamental plants (only if chemicals have not been
used.) A little soap won’t hurt plants.
• Using water only when needed. Always turn the faucet off
when you are finished using water.
WATER SYSTEM EVENTS DURING FLOOD OF
JUNE 2006
Flood waters shutdown Wells 2-88 and 1-46 and the Treatment Building approximately 2 AM Thursday June 29, 2006.
The water tank was then used to supply the Village until noon of
6-29-06 when it was shut off and the Pinehill Reservoir supply
was brought on line with chlorination and a boiled water notice.
A spare motor was located and installed on well 2-88 and put
back on line July 3, 2006, Pinehill Reservoirs were shut off, and
the water tank turned back on. The boiled water order stayed
in effect until July12, 2006 when a series of bacteria tests indicated the water to be safe for human consumption. The boiled
water order remained in effect until July 19, 2006 for customers
north of the Guilford Creek due to replacing the 6” water line
that had been washed out from the flood. Except for a few customers in East Guilford, at no time were any Village of Sidney
water customers without water during or after the flood.
WATER SYSTEM EVENTS DURING FLOOD OF
SEPTEMBER 2011
Due to flooding NYSEG shut down the power at approximately 11am on September 8, 2011 shutting down the well supply. The water tank was then used to supply the Village until
3:50pm on September 9, 2011 when the tank was shut off due
to low water and the Pine Hill reservoir supply was brought
on line with chlorination and a Health Dept. boil water order.
NYSEG power came back on at 8pm on September 10, 2011,
Well 2-88 was turned back on, the water tank was brought back
on line and Pine Hill Reservoir supply was turned off. The boil
water order remained in effect until September 14, 2011 when
the second round of bacteria samples indicated the water to be
safe for human consumption. Numerous water services in the
flooded areas had to be turned off. The water supply overall was
not disrupted.
SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS NEEDED OR
PLANNED
• Manganese removal system: The village has performed a
feasibility study for removal of manganese and a new well
source of water that has no manganese and is not prone to
flooding. The well study will be going forward with test
well exploration.
• Distribution system improvements.
• Additional transmission main improvements on the main
from the 2 million gallon storage tank at Pine Hill.
•
•
•
Water valve rehabilitation and exercise program.
Fire hydrant replacement program.
Repair spillways on Pine Hill reservoirs #2 and #3 and
Peckham Reservoir that were damaged by the June 2006
and September 2011 Floods
• Relocate a 200 ft. section of the 10” transmission line from
Peckham Reservoir
• Protect the 6” water line crossing Guilford Creek
Note: The Village of Sidney is presently updating its backflow prevention program as required by the New York State Department of Health. Those water customers that have a backflow
preventer or customers that have hot water boilers for heating
their house are asked to contact the Village Clerk’s Office at
561-2324 so we can update our list.
MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS COMPLETED
Performed a leak detection study throughout the Village water system in 1999. During this study, 18 leaks were identified. These leaks consisted of fire hydrant leaks, valve leaks
and service leaks with an estimated total daily leakage of
120,000 gallons per day. Repairs were made accordingly. In
2000 we located and corrected more leaks in the distribution system totaling in excess of 200,000 gallons per day.
• Rehabilitation of our primary well in December 2012. In
2012 the specific capacity had reduced to less than 60% of
its original specific capacity (a measure of the potential output of the well). Following rehabilitation, the specific capacity was returned to nearly the original specific capacity of
the well.
• Performed vibration analysis on our primary well pump and
motor. In 2006, vibration was found to be within acceptable
limits.
• Developed a water system security plan to minimize the
risk of accidental or intentional disruption at our facilities
and updated our Emergency Response Plan in 2012.
• Upgraded the chlorination system in 2002 – Replaced the
gas chlorination system with a liquid chlorine (sodium hypochlorite) system for improved safety.
• Installed a security gate on our primary well supply and
Treatment Building.
• Replaced 5 fire hydrants under our replacement program in
2003, 5 fire hydrants in 2004 and 6 fire hydrants in 2008, 4
in 2009, 1 in 2010, 1 in 2011, 2 in 2012, 2 in 2013, and 2 in
2014.
• Rebuilt portions of Pine Hill #3 Reservoir spillway and
Peckham Reservoir spillway in 2003.
• Installed a new valve on Peckham Reservoir transmission
line at the reservoir discharge in 2005.
• Installed a blow-off valve for Pine Hill #2 Reservoir in
2005.
• Installed a security and fire alarm system at the treatment
building in 2005.
• Well #2-88 (primary well) underwent rehab in 2005, 2008,
2010 and 2012.
• Replaced 6” Water line across Guilford Creek in 2006.
• Took emergency protective measures to repair the spillway
and embankment of the Peckham Reservoir following the
June 2006, and September 2011 Flooding
• Took emergency protective measures to repair the broken
10” water line and secure a 200ft section of the water line
coming from Peckham Reservoir, better secured the 6” water line crossing Guilford Creek, covered a 10ft section of
16” water line coming from the water tank, and replaced
a section of culvert pipe and back filled over the 12” water
main that runs under Rt. 8
• Peckham Brook water crossing replaced and added a blow
off for flushing. Conducted analysis of Peckham Reservoir
embankment, spillway and piping damages caused by 2006
flooding, set up inspection and maintenance schedules for
Peckham Reservoir and Pine Hill Reservoirs. Began measuring and recording water levels at Peckham Reservoir and
groundwater levels using the Two newly drilled piezometers

on the dam. Increased security at Peckham Reservoir by
installing new gates and made improvements to the access
road. Permanent repairs are scheduled for 2011 with FEMA
and SEMO funding.
Repaired the access road to Pine Hill reservoirs in 2007,
damaged by the flood of 2006.
Installed submersible well pumps and motors on our primary and secondary wells to prevent future damage from
flooding
Replaced controls and wiring and raised above flood level at
well 2-88, well 1-46, and The water Treatment Building
Replaced the booster pump at the Siver and Loomis Booster
pump station in 2013.
Replaced the bridge culvert which is our access to the water

with quality drinking water this year. We ask that all our customers help us protect our water sources, which are the heart of
our community and our way of life. Please call our office if you
have questions.
Sidney Village Water System
NY1200270
AWQR Summary
The NYS DOH has completed a source water assessment for
this system, based on available information. Possible and actual
threats to the drinking water sources were evaluated. The state
source water assessment includes a susceptibility rating based
on the risk posed by each potential source of contamination and
how easily contaminants can move through the subsurface to
the wells.
The susceptibility rating is an estimate of the potential for
contamination of the source water, it does not mean that the
water delivered to consumers is, or will be contaminated. While
nitrates (and other inorganic contaminants) were detected in our
water, it should be noted that all drinking water including bottled drinking water, may be reasonably expected to contain at
least small amounts of some contaminants from natural sources.
The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that
the water poses a health risk. The nitrate levels present in our
sources is not considered high for this area. Organic contaminants have also been detected in our sources and are related to
existing hazardous waste sites. We continue to work with the
appropriate agencies to ensure the impacts to our water sources
are minimal. See section “Are there contaminants in our drinking water?” for a list the contaminants that have been detected.
As mentioned before, our water is derived from 2 drilled
wells. The source water assessment has rated these wells as
having a high susceptibility to microbials, nitrates, industrial
solvents, and other industrial contaminants. These ratings are
due primarily to the close proximity of permitted discharge
facilities (industrial/commercial facilities that discharge wastewater into the environment and are regulated by the state and/or
federal government), low intensity residential activities, chemical bulk storage facilities, and hazardous waste sites within the
assessment area. In addition, the well(s) draws from an unconfined aquifer of unknown hydraulic conductivity. While the
source water assessment rates our well(s) as being susceptible
to microbials, please note that our water is disinfected to ensure
that the finished water delivered to your home meets New York
State’s drinking water standards for microbial contamination.
A copy of the assessment, including a map of the assessment
area, can be obtained by contacting the Village Clerk’s Office
at (607) 561-2324.

AFTON – Vincent Caiati
lofted a bases-loaded single
over a drawn-in infield with
one out in the bottom of
the eighth inning to score
Connor Graven-Briggs with
the winning run and host
Afton overcame a soppy
defensive effort to edge 11thseeded Downsville, 4-3, in the
opening round of the Section
IV Class D first round baseball
game last Tuesday (May 19).
Afton mounted the winning
rally when Graven-Briggs
walked to lead off the inning.
He then stole second on the
first pitch. After a strikeout,
Tyler King singled up the
middle, putting runners on
the corners. King then stole
second and McGwire Tuttle
was intentionally walked to
load the bases.
Downsville then employed
a six-man infield, two-man
outfield, but Caiati foiled the
strategy when his basehit
lofted over the sixth infielder
and into centerfield, scoring
Graven-Briggs
with
the
winner.
Afton led 1-0 after an inning
and held that lead until the top
of the fifth when Downsville
scored two unearned runs,
thanks in part to three Afton
errors.
The Crimson Knights (8-6)
scored twice in the bottom of
the sixth on Tuttle RBI double,
which scored Caiati with the
tying run, then went ahead
when Tuttle scored on a wild
pitch.
However, the Purple Eagles
tied it in the top of the seventh
when Matt Rampe led off by
reaching second on a doubleerror at third. He moved to
third on a sacrifice bunt and
scored on a wild pitch.
Afton picked up the win
despite five errors. Pitchers
Colin Nabinger and Brody
Croft combined allow two hits
while striking out 12. Croft
picked up the win with four
innings of relief.

host Franklin’s 6-0, Section
IV Class D first round victory
over tenth-seeded South
Kortright last Tuesday (May

bottom of the first inning
when Max Carey laced a tworun single that scored Derek
Beers and Terrano.
The seventh-seeded Purple
Devils added four more runs
in the fifth inning. Billy Davis,

B-G Nine Beats Oxford In Extra Innings
Walkoff in Sectional Opener
BAINBRIDGE – Sean
Jones singled with one out in
the bottom of the eighth inning
to score Pete Ouimet with the
winning run, as BainbridgeGuilford edged Oxford, 2-1,
in the opening round of the
Section IV Class C baseball
playoffs last Wednesday (May

Ouimet and Ryan Jones
blooped basehits off losing
pitcher Kevin Davis, setting
up Sean Jones’ heroics - his hit
scoring a sliding Ouimet.

and Bailey Green followed
with a single up the middle.
Oxford evened the score in
the fourth.

Richard Ryan walked to start
the frame. After an out, Dylan

Daniel Lawton’s grounder
to short was bobbled, allowing
Davis to score, but shortstop
Trevor Halaquist recovered
and forced Ryan at third for
the second out.
Ouimet got out of the jam
by inducing Austin Crawford
into a groundout.
Ouimet and Davis went the
distance for the respective
teams. Ouimet allowed four
hits and three walks with
six strikeouts, while Davis
scattered eleven hits. He did
not walk a batter and struck
out eight in a tough loss.
Jon Heggie had two hits for
Oxford, who finish 9-8.
Mitch Mertz, Sean Jones
and Kyle Hanvey each had
two hits for B-G and Hanvey
was credited by coach Tim

Good Citizens Are Selected
From Area High Schools
ONEONTA - Each year,
the Oneonta Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) recognizes senior
students who have been chosen by their schools as a Good
Citizen. The selection is based
upon several qualities. Dependability includes truthfulness, loyalty and punctuality;
Service means cooperation,
courtesy and consideration of
others; Leadership qualities
demonstrate self-control and
the ability to assume responsibility, and finally; Patriotism which includes unselfish
interest to family, school and
community.
This year the DAR recognized five Good Citizens.
They were invited to attend
the annual awards luncheon
held at the Masonic Temple
on Saturday, May 9. The students and their families were
recognized for their positive
contributions.
Linzi Poje is from Laurens
Central School. She is the
daughter of Daniel Poje and
Heather Conroy. In school,
Linzi is in band and plays
sports. She plans to attend
Clarkson in the fall and is en-
rolled in the Physician’s Assistant program.
David DePauw is the son
of Michael and Lori DePauw and is a student at Oneonta High School. David is in
drama club, jazz band and pep
band. He plays basketball and
plans to attend the University
of Buffalo in an engineering
program.
Morgan Edwards is a student at the Oneonta Community Christian School. He is
from Unadilla and the son of
Shayne and Andrea Edwards.
He likes to write and play music, playing piano, drum and
guitar. At school he is a worship leader, plays baseball and
basketball. He has also served
as a camp counselor. He
plans to attend Davis College
where he will study music and
ministry.
Two of the students were
not able to be at the lunch are

May Is Mental
Health Month
Did you know that “May is
Mental Health Month?” Why,
because nearly one in five Americans have a mental illness each
year and one in four people will
be affected by mental or neurological disorders at some point
in their lives. That’s right, 57.7
million American have some
form of mental illness. Mental
illness is a disease that causes
mild to severe disturbances
in thought and behavior. The
trouble is, 2/3 of the people with
a known mental disorder never
seek help, they simply don’t
know where to turn!
Help spread the word: mental
illness is not a personal failure!
In fact if there is a failure, it is
to be found in the way we have
responded to people with mental and brain disorders. Support
your family and friends.
Do you have questions, want
more information, or need
someone to talk to? Call the
Delaware Warm Line on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursdays
from 5 to 8 p.m. toll-free at
1-844-865-3156 or locally at
865-3156.
Friends of Rogers
Is ‘Batty for Bats’
SHERBURNE - Bats often have a bad reputation as
blood-sucking demons trying to fly into your hair. But
bats are quite good for people
and the environment, yet their
populations are declining.
On Tuesday, June 2 you can
give bats a second chance by
joining Val Mitchell, current
naturalist intern with Friends
of Rogers and a previous bat
technician, as she shares about
these misunderstood creatures. Learn the truth about
bats, discover how important
they are to us, and what we
can do to help them. The program begins at 6:30 p.m. in
the Visitor’s Center.
“White-nose syndrome is
a disease killing off many of
our bats, and bat habitat is
declining around the world.
People don’t realize how important bats are to us. If bats
go extinct, insect populations
will increase out of control,
pesticide use will dramatically increase, and many
agricultural plants will lose
their prime pollinator,” said
Mitchell. “Putting up a bat
house is a simple way to help
bats and provide them with a
place to live. It can also help
people get bats out of their
own homes while still having
the bats nearby, keeping the
insect population in check.”
After the presentation,
guests will have the option of
becoming a bat conservationist by building a bat house to
take home for a nominal materials fee per bat house. Free
architectural plans will also
be available for those who
prefer to build bat houses on
their own.
Rogers Center is operated
by Friends of Rogers Environmental Education Center, Inc.,
a nonprofit organization that
offers educational programs
for all ages. Seasonal hours
are from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Wednesday through Saturday,
and from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on
Sunday. For more information, call 674-4733 or visit

Franklin Students are Winners
Of DAR History Essay Contest
ONEONTA - For many
years, the Oneonta Chapter,
Daughters of the American
Revolution (DAR) has sponsored an essay contest for
students in grades 5-8. This
contest, the American History
Essay Contest, has a different
topic each year. This year the
topic was chosen to celebrate
the 125th anniversary of Ellis Island and the title for the
essay was “A Childs Journey
through Ellis Island.” In the
past, many schools participated in this contest. Today,
with changing demands on
the school curriculum, only
Franklin Central School was
able to submit essays.
The winning essay for grade
five was Lucia Marsiglio. Her
winning essay was done in
the form of a letter from a
new American citizen home
to her family. She described
the arrival at Ellis Island and
the stations she had to complete before she could be released to her new home. The
six grade winner was Paige
Dutcher. Paige is a retuning
winner, having won the fifth
grade prize last year. Her essay described the first meeting
of two cousins, one already in
America and the other newly
arrived.
Both students were introduced and read their essays at the Annual Awards
Luncheon sponsored by the
Oneonta DAR. They were accompanied to the luncheon by
their families. Ruth Schaeffer,
Chair of the DAR Chapter
program also recognized their
teacher, Mrs. DeCarlo from
Franklin Central School, for
her many years of support for
the American History Essay
program.

PUZZLE CORNER
Across
Area 4-Hers ‘Remodel Their Models’
by Emily Roach
HAMDEN - It was a great
year for sewing On Monday,
April 20 and Tuesday, April
21, 4-Hers brought their sewing projects to be evaluated in
Deposit by Joan Dewing, Hobart by Amy Kilmer and Deb
Muller, and in Hamden by
Cathy Scofield, Joan Dewing,
and Penny Bishop. All three
judges in Hamden took the
time to help judge 4-H teens
who had sewn full outfits and
were in competition to attend
the New York State Fair Fashion Revue in August. We appreciate all of the judges for
volunteering their time and
the expert advice they gave
to help the 4-Hers with their
sewing projects.
Friday, May t was a fun
night that showcased all of
these 4-Hers awesome sewing
projects. This year’s Fashion
Revue was themed ‘Remodel
Your Model’ and was held at
4-H Camp Shankitunk in Delhi. Approximately, thirty 4-H
members, ages 5-18 from various clubs participated. Some
of this year’s sewing projects
featured dresses, stuffed ele-
phants, sweatshirts and more.
To go along with this year’s
theme, 4-Hers divided up into
teams of 3-4 and chose one
of the team members to be a
‘model.’ Then the teams chose
from a large assortment of
clothing and accessories that
they had brought to the Fashion Revue to be later donated
to Delaware County families
who are in need through Delaware Opportunities. Once the
4-Hers found the clothing and
accessories they wanted to use
for their ‘models’ they chose a
team name and wrote a commentary about their ‘remodeled model.’ The 4-Hers had
a blast and came up with some
awesome outfit designs.
The night ended with 4-H
Extension Educator, Emily Roach, thanking all the
people who helped make the
Fashion Revue a success and
the State Fair finalists were
announced. To qualify to be
a finalist, teens are required to
make or purchase a complete
outfit in order to be selected
to participate in the New York
State Fair Fashion Revue.
These finalists will model
at the New York State Fair
from August 30-September
3, during the time period that
Delaware County 4-H will be
at the New York State Fair in
Syracuse. In the Sewn Category, the following 4-H teens
were chosen:
1st Finalist:
Abigail
Dennis, from Treadwell, an
Independent Member; 2nd Finalist: Neah McClenon, Trout
Creek, a member of the Royal
Rockets 4-H Club; and 3rd
Finalist: Shaelie McClenon,
Trout Creek, a member of the
Royal Rockets 4-H Club.
A special thank you to all
the leaders and parents who
helped with sewing projects;
your assistance and support
made the 4-H Fashion Revue a
success. Thank you also to everyone who donated clothing.
Check out the 4-Hers sewing projects and the 4-H Teen
Council Quilt in the 4-H
Youth Building at the Delaware County Fair, Aug. 17-22.
If you would like more information on Delaware County 4-H, please contact Emily
Roach, 4-H Extension Community Educator at 865-6531

Friends of Rogers Hosts Program On
Growing Vegetables in Raised Beds
SHERBURNE - Friends
of Rogers hosts Stacie Edick,
Community Gardens Coordinator of Chenango County
Cornell Cooperative Extension, for an engaging workshop at the Rogers Environmental Education Center. Join
fellow gardening enthusiasts
at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, June
3 to learn about growing vegetables in a raised bed garden.
Participants will consider special watering needs, spacing,
feeding and the many advantages of raised bed gardening:
reduced weeding, no bending,
and an easy harvest.
For the second year in a
row, Friends of Rogers invites
the local community to garden at Rogers Center, where
a limited number of raised
bed plots are now open for the
season.
Space is available on a firstcome, first-serve basis to individuals and families. Groups
wishing to raise crops for local food cupboards are also
eligible for a spot. Preference
is given to those without space
for a garden at their place of
residence. Participants sign
a contract for the 2015 season agreeing to garden rules,
and all gardeners are asked
to have an active membership
with Friends of Rogers.
By hosting this program and
community garden opportunities, Friends of Rogers is providing unique opportunities
for increased exercise, health,
recreation and wellbeing.
Community gardens stimulate
intergenerational and crosscultural social interaction, and
participants benefit from a
natural and inexpensive stress
reliever which also produces
delicious, fresh food.
Rogers Center is operated
by Friends of Rogers Environmental Education Center, Inc.,
a nonprofit organization that
offers educational programs
for all ages. Seasonal spring
hours are from 10 a.m. to 4:30
p.m. Wednesday through Saturday, and from 11 a.m. to 3
p.m. on Sunday. For more
information or to apply for a
garden plot, e-mail execdir@
FriendsofRogers.org, call 6744733 or visit www.FriendsofRogers.org.

Sidney High School’s
Valedictorian, Ashley Smith,
is an extremely bright, conscientious, and intuitive student
who is very driven and strives
for excellence in all that she
does. She pays careful attention to detail, she loves to help
others, and she has a very caring demeanor.
Ashley has been on the
Superintendent’s List every quarter throughout high
school, and has an overall
grade point average of 97.771.
She is involved in the Honor
Society and Drama Club, she
is treasurer of the Art Club,
Interact and Spanish Club, she
has been secretary and treasurer of the Science Olympiad, and she is vice-president
of Tri-M.
Ashley is quite an accomplished flautist, having
participated in the marching
band, jazz band, Norwich City
Band, All-County and Area
All-State. She is a Red Cross
volunteer, animal shelter volunteer, and has spent many
hours working at pancake
breakfasts, spaghetti dinners
and coffeehouses. She was an
RPI Medalist and a Renton
Scholar. She is currently employed as a part-time crew
member at McDonalds.
Next year, Ashley plans
to attend the University of
Rochester to study neuroscience. Eventually she would
like to earn her PhD, become
a scientific researcher and a
college professor of neuroscience. Ashley’s proud parents
are Charles and Alisa Smith
of Masonville.
Sidney High School’s Salutatorian, Rachel Maxwell,
is intelligent, conscientious,
respectful, and confident. She
has been on the Superintendent’s List throughout high
school, and has maintained a
96.44 overall grade point average. She has participated on
the tennis and bowling teams.
She is involved in the National
Honor Society, Interact, Art
Club, Spanish Club, Varsity
Letter Club, Yearbook, and
Tri-M Music Honor Society.
Rachel has been involved
with 4-H, she is an Altar
Server at her church, has participated in Odyssey of the
Mind, and has been involved
with Upward Bound through
Binghamton University. She
is quite accomplished at the
trumpet, as she has participated in the marching band,
jazz band, Sidney Community
Band, All-County, and she is a
Renton Scholar.
Rachel loves to help others and she has a very caring
demeanor. Since she was very
young, she has grown her hair
and has made several donations to the Locks of Love.
Most recently, at our local
Memorial Day celebrations,
she refused payment to play
the TAPS, feeling as though it
was her civic duty and community service, out of respect
for the veterans.
Next year, she plans to attend Binghamton University or SUNY Oneonta and
would like to pursue a career
in chemical engineering. Her
proud parents are Ronald and
Rita Maxwell of Sidney.
