Flash Flooding Closes
Roads In Tri-Town Area
COVENTRY – Localized
storms last week caused flash
flooding that resulted in the closure of roads in the Town of
Coventry, and several other roads
in the Bainbridge, Guilford and
Afton areas. Sporadic but heavy
rains that fell on already saturated
grounds, and swollen creeks that
overflowed their banks compromised a number of area roads.
The Town of Coventry was
among the areas most affected.
Town of Coventry Supervisor
John Phelan said that 13 town
roads sustained damage, some
severe enough to require at least
temporary closure. “Everyone had
alternative routes but for some it
has been an inconvenience,” said
Phelan.
Among the roads closed was
Buckley Hill Road where the
north end was completely washed
out. A conduit has already been
installed and the road re-opened.
On Tuesday, Phelan said some
roads allow only one lane traffic
but the only road still completely
closed is Wylie-Horton Rd. This
road is only on state land so does
not directly impact residents.
Last Friday the Chenango Co.
Emergency Management Office
issued a warning alert that Smith
Pond in the Town of Coventry
had suffered significant damage
in Thursday night’s flash flood,
and there was a potential that a
dam could fail causing the pond
to give way resulting in flooding
to the south and southeast. Smith
Pond feeds into a small creek,
which runs to the Village of Afton. The dam did eventually fail
and Phelan said the Department
of Environmental Conservation
Dam Safety reported that the dam
was completely breached. Phelan
said the dam is privately owned
and they are trying to contact the
absentee owner. According to
Phelan, there are only two solutions, to repair the dam or open
it up and let the water pass. He
said while the town had overseen
the dam and inspected it to insure
public safety downstream, it is
not the town’s responsibility.
On Tuesday there were representatives from several agencies
on hand to assess and help with
the damage in the Town of Coventry, as well as come up with
solutions for the hardest hit areas.
Represented were Chenango Co.
Soil and Water Conservation,
the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Chenango Co. Emergency
Services, DEC Dam Safety and
Afton and Coventry Fire Depart-
ments. Because of the severe
damage, Phelan said the town
needs engineering expertise.
While they are looking to
FEMA for some assistance, Phelan said it was such a localized
storm they are not sure of FEMA’s help. Rather they are more
optimistic about having a shared
service agreement with the state.
Phelan said among their major
concerns are Buckley Hill Road,
Cueball Road and Moran Road.
Barricades and warning cones
have been put up to caution drivers and Phelan urges people to
“use extreme caution and respect
the barricades and cones.” He
said, “roads may look okay but if
you travel on some sections and
the road breaks down you could
drop twenty feet.”
Phelan praised the crews for
their hard work in response to the
emergency situation, saying they
had no time off.
Another area seriously affected was the Bainbridge-Guilford
Road. A creek in back of the old
Borden plant overflowed its banks
after a beaver dam broke and sent
debris down, plugging up the
creek. Waters spread across the
road to houses on the other side.
Several homeowners lost furnaces and hot water heaters as water
seeped into their cellars. Firemen
were soon out pumping out basements. Bridges on the road were
problematic as adjacent roadways
were washed away. Doris Bame,
who lives on the road, said in over
40 years she has never seen the
area so flooded, even in the flood
of 2006.
Others in the Bainbridge area
also noted that it was worse than
in 2006 with flooded basements
that had three to four feet of
water.
Rt. 7 east of Afton closed when
fill under the road was washed out
resulting in a large cavern in the
roadway. The road is expected to
be closed for some time.
Lynn Shultis, Town of Afton
highway superintendent, said the
bridge on lower Morgan Rd. in
the town was wiped out but it is
a county not town responsibility.
The same bridge was closed in
the 2006 flood. Richard Ramsey,
head of the Afton Village department of public works, said there
were no real problems in the
village.
In Sidney village, with the exception of several problem culverts, Sidney Village Engineer
John Woodyshek said he knew of
no severe problems.
Above and right:
Rt. 7 bridge is
closed outside
of the village of
Afton alternate
routes include I88, Algerine St.
and the “back
river” road.

the Bainbridge end

Guilford Road. Left:
Many roads were
temporarily closed
due to damage
from flash flooding
including this section of Co. Rt. 17 at
West Bainbridge.
The shoulder of
Route 206 was also
damaged.

SIDNEY - Sidney native
Chuck D’Imperio will be presenting his one-man show “My
Town is a Cathedral: My Memories of Sidney,” at the Oneonta Theatre, Chestnut Street,
Oneonta, on Friday, July 8 at 8
p.m. Chuck has presented this
show throughout the Upstate
region and most recently performed it at the Franklin Stage
Company last summer. It sold
out more than 200 seats.
“This show is a wonderful snow-globe look at growing up in small town America
in the black and white days of
the 1950s and 1960s. My vantage point to this era was from
the front window of my parents
little two-shopping cart grocery
store on Main Street in Sidney.
Despite the topic being place
specific,” D’Imperio said, “the
subject really resonates with
people from all over the place,
even those who have never
heard of Sidney before. Only
the names are different,” he
laughed.
“The swimming holes, the
old-timers, the triumphs and
disasters, the best hamburger
in town, the old schoolteachers,
the rivalries and the memories
all come rushing back during
my talk. For those of you who
remember the old Sidney bank,
Bert Fairbanks, Taffy Jones’
Aquacades, the Zor Grotto musicals, Logans and The Master
Market, Ricey’s Gas Station,
teachers Mr. Redmond, Mrs.
Halbert and Emily Spinelli, the
Welcome Inn and the Bi-Centennial parade...well, this show
is for you!”
“My Town is a Cathedral:
My Memories Of Sidney” is a
benefit fundraiser for Catskill
Area Hospice. Tickets may be
purchased at The Green Toad
Book Store on Main Street in
Oneonta, or online at www.
oneontatheatre.com.
“On the heels of last year’s
sell out show in Franklin, I hope
that lots of folks from Sidney
will make it up to the glorious
old Oneonta Theatre for my
show,” D’Imperio said. “It is a
fun evening of memories and
laughs and I am sure that I will
mention something that almost
everybody will remember. It really is a special evening.”
Chuck is the son of Kate
D’Imperio, of Sidney, and is a
graduate of Sidney High School,
1967. He was inducted into the
Sidney Alumni Wall of Fame in
2009 for “Excellence in Broadcasting.” He can be heard daily
on WDOS Radio in Oneonta.

Park in Bainbridge the weekend of July 15, 16 and 17. All

Brooklyn; Sister Mary Amnesia
(Amanda Blake), who lost her
memory when a crucifix fell on
her head; and Sister Mary Leo
(Jordan Griffiths), the Novice

Senate Passes Act to Boost
Local Agricultural Purchases
ALBANY - The New York
State Senate recently passed
the “Buy from the Backyard
Act” to promote the purchase of
food grown or produced locally.
The bill (S.2468), sponsored by
Senator Thomas Libous (R-CI, Binghamton), requires state
agencies with food contracts to
buy at least 20 percent of their
food from New York sources.
“If every household in New
York spent just $15 per week on
local food, we could pump $5.5
billion into New York State’s
economy,” Senator Tom Libous
said. “And that’s just households.
This bill will help state agencies
join in supporting our farmers
and stimulating the economy.
We’re investing taxpayer dollars
right back into our state.”
“Buying local isn’t just a
catchphrase – it is a sensible and
healthy act that supports hardworking New Yorkers,” Senate
Majority Leader Dean Skelos
said. “This bill demonstrates
New York State’s commitment
to the quality produce and other
farm offerings that are plentiful
across the state and will bolster
our agricultural industry and
overall economy.”
The bill expands upon an existing law, which creates a program that encourages the purchase of local food products by
State agencies. Mental health facilities, prisons, universities and
state institutions that have food
contracts would be required to
purchase at least 20 percent that
is grown, produced, harvested or
processed in New York State.
The bill expands upon Senator Libous’s Buy From the Backyard initiative in Broome, Tioga,
and Chenango counties (www.
BuyFromTheBackyard.com),
which promotes buying local
among consumers and encourages investments in New York
agriculture.
The bill has been sent to the
Assembly.

A CHEERFUL PROSPECT
BY AMY MARSLAND
A while back we looked at the
question of whether an ugly man
can be elected president. Now
we see, in the Weiner case, that
a good-looking man cannot be
either if he is overexposed.
But to more serious matters.
Do you know the signs of stroke?
A correspondent tells us that
if you guess a friend or family
member may have had a stroke,
you can test by using the STR
method: ask him or her to smile,
talk (a simple sentence) or raise
their arms over their head. And
now there is a new method: ask
then to stick out their tongue. If
it comes out crooked, or they fail
any of the other tests, get them
straight to the hospital. Treatment
in the first three hours can ensure
a complete recovery.
In fact, the risk of stroke is
much higher than I thought it
was: over a lifetime, it happens
to 1 out of 28 people. Since you
probably have that many friends
and relatives, there is a good
chance that knowing these signs
will save the life of one of them.
This is three times the risk of
being shot, which is also higher
than I would have guessed: 1
out of 306 people will suffer a
gunshot wound in the course of a
lifetime.
Risk statistics are very curious.
Your risk of being in an airplane
crash in the course of a year is
very low: on the average, only 48
people go that way; however, as
I think I have pointed out before,
car crashes kill about 30,000
drivers and passengers annually.
When everybody avoided plane
travel if they could after 9/11,
nobody died in an air crash in the
following year, but there were
1,600 more deaths than normal
on the road.
And yet we all, myself
included, are more afraid of flying
than we are of driving. In a way,
this is quite normal. When we fly,
we have no control; we put our
safety in the hands of the pilot. In
a car, even as a passenger, we feel
we do have some control and can
avoid danger either by skillful
driving or by a quick warning to
the driver.
There are many other
circumstances where our fear is
not commensurate with the actual
danger we face. Your risk of
being attacked by a shark is about
1 in 4 million, while your risk of
being killed as the result of a fall
is 1 in 171. But which, when you
think about it, scares you more?
No question. Regardless of the
chance of their happening, there
are some deaths so bad we don’t
even like to expose ourselves
to them. If you are at the beach
and someone has recently been
attacked by a shark, you won’t
even go in the water. But climbing
a ladder to change a bulb doesn’t
even give you a qualm.
There are other discrepancies
in our reactions. Even a very
small earthquake will send people
rushing terrified into the streets,
but your chances of dying in a
quake are very small, about 1 in
150,000. But when you’re near
the water, whether it’s a beach
without sharks or the hotel pool,
you go swimming with laughter
although your chance of drowning
is about 100 times higher.
Probably, again, your sense of
not being in control makes a big
difference to the way you feel.
But maybe you should bear the
difference in mind when you go
and swim at any of the state parks
around here this summer.
And speaking of sharks, did
you know that they yawn, just
like us? And just like us, if one
shark in the school does, they all
start to yawn. Nobody knows why
we yawn, or what it is for, but not
only sharks but all vertebrates
do…except the giraffe, I think
possibly because if he did, he
would get a crick in the neck.

she commented so enthusiastically about the landscape at this time of year. The
grass is bright green and the trees have an especially luxuriant growth of leaves. The
wild caraway is in full bloom, as is the birdsfoot trefoil and the vetch along the shoulders
of the highway. It was a delight for me to hear her comments and it made me appreciate
all the more this beautiful area in which we live.
On Saturday I was a speaker at the Clear Water program at Foster Park. I was asked
to talk about the Susquehanna Valley in the early days of settlement. Two accounts mention the burning of level lands by the Indians to clear them for planting crops. Richard
Smith travelled the valley in 1769 and actually saw the Indians setting fires. Some of the
uplands had also been burned over. Revolutionary War soldiers also mention this burning as they descended the river with General Clinton’s expedition in 1779.
When the white men came to settle the valley after the Revolutionary War, they found
rich farmlands, some of which had been cleared by the Indians, and sturdy forests. One
of the first sources of income was from the logs and sawed timber which they floated as
rafts down the Susquehanna. Josiah Stowell had one of the first saw mills in town and
was active in this business. The land could be cleared for crops and pastures as a result.
The landscape became much barer than before.
On both sides of the river in Afton lands were mostly converted from woodlands to
fields and pastures. In the 1930s and 1940s, when mechanized equipment came into
general use, the hilltops and hillsides were often poorly drained and of poorer soil. They
were abandoned as farmland. Some of these lands were purchased and reforested by
the state, using the Civilian Conservation Corps in the process.
Old picture postcards of Afton show completely open hills above the village where
meadows, grain fields, and pastures can be identified. Today the same area is almost
completely covered with trees, with an occasional house visible.

Ways to Save Money
Always compare prices for
books, clothes and anything
you might want to buy but don’t
waste time and money by trying
to find the lowest price. You can
go on line and check websites
such as pricewatch.com and
shopping.com before you go to
the stores. If you don’t have a
computer give a call to various
stores to check prices.
It is also time to check your
cell phone bill to see if there
are any features that you are not
currently using and could drop
so your bill could be cheaper.
Or maybe your cell phone company is offering a better plan
than the one you have now.
When you go to the dentist
and you are not offered a free
toothbrush, toothpaste or floss,
ask as your dentist if he has any
samples or even coupons.
When you go to your physician and he or she writes you
a prescription, ask your doctor
if he has some samples of the
medication. Often doctors have
extras.
Ever walk down the aisle in
a store and find the item you
wanted to purchase is out of
stock? Go to the customer service counter and ask for a rain
check. Rain checks are usually
good for at least 30 days in most
stores.
Many owners overfeed their
animals. You should consult
with your vet about how much
you feed your dog or cat. If
you feed your animal a smaller
amount it can improve your
pet’s health and also save you
money. I used to feed our cat,
Princess, a whole can of cat food
every night and she is now con-
tributing by eating less, staying
healthy and helping me save a
little bit of money. Princess gets
a half a can of cat food every
night Monday through Saturday
and her treat on Sunday is a full
can. She also gets dry food in
the morning.
If one of your appliances is
not energy efficient and needs
replacing and you can afford
to do it, pick the appliance that
is Energy Star Certified, which
mean it is energy efficient. Wash
only full loads of clothes and
dishes. Don’t use hot water to
wash clothes and consider line
drying. This is the perfect time
in the warm weather to hang
out your clothes on a clothes
line. Turn off lights, computers,
TVs and appliances when not in
use as this will save energy and
money. Keep your refrigerator
and freezer full so it runs more
efficiently. Also replace your
light bulbs with incandescent
light bulbs as they last 10 times
longer than regular light bulbs
Fourth Of July
Are you having a family get
together and barbecuing for the
Fourth of July. Don’t forget to
have your guest bring a dish to
pass so it will lighten the work
you have to do and save you
some money also. Enjoy your
holiday and stay safe.
Congratulations to all our
area high school graduates
who graduated this past week
end. Good luck in your future
endeavors.
If you have any money saving tips or ideas please email me
at [email protected].
Till next time. Have a great
week and Happy Fourth of July.
Please do not drink and drive.

UNADILLA FARMERS’ MARKET, located on Main St.
next to Panni’s Pizzeria and Restaurant, is open every
Thursday with farm fresh foods.
Food Stamps Can Be Used
At Unadilla Farmers’ Market
UNADILLA - Those with
food stamp benefits are now able
to use their food stamp (EBT)
card at the Unadilla Farmers’
Market. This electronic transaction is made possible through
wireless technology which is
set up at the market manager’s
booth. Upon arrival to the market, food stamp customers can
use their card to purchase $1
wooden tokens. These tokens
then function as cash within the
market.
At the market, food stamp customers are able to purchase foodstamp authorized goods such as:
fruits and vegetables, meats, fish,
poultry, dairy, maple syrup and
other maple products, honey,
breads, baked goods, jams and
jellies, processed foods and even
seeds and plants which produce
food. For every $5 in tokens purchased, food stamp customers
will receive a $2 Fresh Check
coupon to spend at the Market.
“When it comes to food stamp
customers, we’re trying to emphasize that their benefits can
go farther than they may have
thought at the farmers market.
Not only are they able to obtain
farm-fresh food, they have access to vendors and farmers who
are ready and willing to share
advice, tips and recipes,” says
Diane Eggert, Executive Director of the Farmers Market Federation of NY.
It’s not just food stamp customers who are benefiting from
the ability to use their cards at
the Unadilla Farmers’ Market.
Farmers and vendors are benefiting from the increased sales and
traffic at the market, as they are
able to redeem the tokens for a
100% cash exchange.
“This is a positive, win-win
situation for everyone involved
in the Unadilla Farmers’ Market
– both the vendors and the food
stamp customers. Now, food
stamp customers have access to
the freshest, healthiest produce
and products that our area has to
offer,” says Ed Gifford, market
manager of the Unadilla Farmers’ Market.

Sidney DAR
Inroduces New
Officers at Picnic
HOSTA & DAYLILY
SIDNEY - The Sidney Chapter of the NSDAR met on May
26 and placed American flags
on the graves of deceased DAR
members at Prospect Cemetery
in Sidney. Flags had also been
placed in Masonville Cemetery,
Sand Hill Cemetery, and Evergreen Cemetery in Unadilla,
on deceased members graves.
Nearly five dozen flags have
been placed.
We had lunch at the Sidney
Country Club and a program on
Arlington National Cemetery in
Washington D.C., was given by
Doris Fahy.
The Sidney DAR Chapter
met at 5 p.m. on June 16, at
the home of Geraldine Haynes
of Guilford. It was our annual
picnic with our husbands (HODARS) invited. The food and
fellowship was great. A guest,
Lorrie Walter of Sidney, attended. She is interested in joining
the chapter by tracing her ancestry back to a Revolutionary War
ancestor.
After our picnic, we had a
brief business meeting. A new
slate of officers was presented
as follows: Regent Patricia
Greene; Vice Regent Priscilla
Van Valkenburg; Secretary
Geraldine Haynes, Treasurer
Iva Morey, Registrar Erva Ellen Sturgess, Chaplain Juel
Luscomb. These officers will
be installed at the September
meeting.
The program was given by
Geraldine Haynes. She read
letters written by family members that were soldiers from the
114th Regiment of Chenango
County during the Civil War.
These letters followed the men
through the war from beginning
to end. It is wonderful to have
such historic old documents.
The program committee will
meet in July to set up the programs for 2011/12. Our next
meeting will be on September
15.
Anyone interested in the
DAR can contact 369-7630 for
information.

Congratulations to all 2011

hope your celebrations didn’t
get rained out this weekend.
Good luck to all of you in whatever you choose to do.
Around the farm we are struggling to get the crops in and
have had to pull with one tractor ahead of the other because it
has been so wet. The corn just
got planted last week and now it
is time to do the second cutting
along with some first cutting not
done yet. The rain sure is putting us all behind. Let’s have
some sunshine to make us all
feel better.

Tri-Town Regional Hospital
Has New Advanced CT Scanner
SIDNEY - Tri-Town Regional Hospital (TRH) patients now
have access to an advanced CT
scanner that is faster and produces detailed cross-sectional
X-ray images of structures within the body. Patients will benefit
from this latest technology in
the following ways: minimized
radiation exposure, decreased
time for testing for patients who
have difficulty remaining still or
holding their breath, especially
younger people, and increased
comfort for patients with chronic medical conditions who require frequent CT imaging.
Tri-Town Regional Hospital
CEO Dan Ayres commented,
“This significant capital investment is a continued commitment
to provide the tri-town area with
the best health care possible with
the newest technologies.”
This CT unit features a radiation reduction package that can
provide quality images while
reducing the radiation exposure
up to 40 percent. Lower radiation exposure is significantly
important for children and those
who may require multiple scans
including cancer patients. The
enhanced imaging provides
quality examinations and the
NEW CT SCANNER is now available at the Tri-Town
Regional Hospital. In the photo with the scanner are

and other high-risk patients
as well. Patients only have to
hold their breath briefly, which

means easier exams for older
adults, people with breathing
problems, and those not able to
remain in one position for long
periods of time.
The new CT scanner will
prove vital to TRH’s ability to
continue to provide the best possible emergency, preventive and
outpatient health care to the patients we serve.
