Frewsburg Fire Company,” said

Events, Food and Fun
The Frewsburg Fire Company
Old Home Week opens at 6:00
p.m. Wednesday, June 25, and
continues at 6:00 Thursday and
Friday nights at the Frewsburg
Fair Grounds. The Grand Parade
steps off at 1:00 on Saturday afternoon followed by fireworks at
dusk.
“The fish fry is on at the Fairground Food Building from
Wednesday through Saturday,”
said Alex Demaio, Fire Trustee
and foodmaster for the event.
“On Friday and Saturday nights
the famous Fish Dinner always
draws big crowds.” Hot dogs – traditional American and loaded Italian sausage – burgers, beverages
and snacks round out the festival
fare. Main Event brings fifteen
traditional carnival rides for both
children and adults. The carnival
also includes the ever popular “I
Got It” game.
“And don’t forget the always
popular Fowler’s Taffy & Candy
and good old fashioned cotton
candy for the kids,” Moore added.
“Kids can meet the firemen, too,
and see the fire trucks up close.”
“We’ll have a long line-up of
festival floats in the parade, too,”
added Fire Captain Tom Moore,
“along with the American Legion
Color Guard, The Police Department, local scout troops and
much more.” According to Moore,
the Old Home Week festivities
take months to organize by the
more than 35 regular volunteer
firefighters, their friends, families
and town officials.
Life Saving Support
The hard work is rewarded every
year by the festival goers’ support.
A percentage of the Old Home
Week proceeds – also remembered by many local folks as Gala
Days – supports the Frewsburg
Fire Company. “Saving a life is

JHS Senior Alex Harvey
Named Volunteer of the Year
for Chautauqua Striders

JHS Senior Alex Harvey was recently named
the Chautauqua Striders' Volunteer of the Year
during a reception sponsored by the United
Way of Southern Chautauqua County. Pam
Gustafson, Chautauqua Striders' Academic Coordinator, presented the award to Mr. Harvey at
a ceremony.
"I met Alexander when he attended Holy
Family Catholic School where he was in my
fourth grade class. At the age of nine, he possessed a sense of fairness and justice beyond
his years. His choice to serve his community
through volunteerism and his career plans of international studies further exemplifies the truly
extraordinary person he is," said Gustafson.
Mr. Harvey was interested in finding a place
to volunteer his time. He had used Chautauqua
Striders for tutoring and SAT help so he contacted Mrs. Gustafson to see if he would be a good
fit for their tutoring program. He began tutoring
at the Fletcher Advantage After School Program
last year, Monday through Friday. This year, he
split his time working three days a week directly
for the after school program and the other two
days tutoring elementary school students in the
library helping them with homework.
"The kids are great. I have such a nice time
working with the students," said Mr. Harvey.
"I help first through fourth graders with their
math homework. They are so funny and make
me laugh everyday. I hope I'm also helping them
and improving their lives."
Mr. Harvey will be attending American
University in the fall studying under its Global
Scholars Program, which accepts only 25 students each year. He plans to study International
Relations and Political Science with his dream
goal to become an international war crime attorney like his hero, Robert H. Jackson. Mr. Harvey
has taken seven advanced placement courses at
JHS and has won numerous awards, honors and
scholarships. He has also taken courses at A.U.
in anticipation of beginning his college career.
Originally founded in 1979 as a local track
club, Chautauqua Striders has since developed
into a multifaceted community organization,
proudly offering diversified programs that incorporate its mission to "Mentor and guide
youth through education, advocacy and athletics." The not-for-profit agency, based in Jamestown, New York, provides tutoring, mentoring
outreach and athletic programs to more than
1,800 Chautauqua County youth annually. The
goal of Chautauqua Striders is to help youth
graduate high school inspired with the knowledge, skill, and confidence required for successful college and career experiences.

Our Kind
of Parade!
verybody loves a parade, they say. And
we have lots of them, thousands every
year across the U.S.A. As a matter of
fact, we dream up more and more reasons
to have parades, and some of our dreams are
definitely of the weirder sort.
For instance, 2014 will greet the 36th annual St. Stupid Parade in San Francisco, sponsored by the First Church of the Last Laugh
and Bishop Joey. Saint Stupid is the patron
Saint of Civilizations and Parking meters. This
year’s grandstand will occupy the first of many
Stations of Stupid; the Federal Reserve HQ.
Then there’s the Port of Los Angeles Lobsterdog Pet Parade for dog owners who march
their crustacean-costumed pets down the
streets of Ports O’Call Village. Another one,
the Occasional Pasadena Doo-Dah Parade, is
a celebration of weirdness featuring marching
groups such as the Kinetic Pastry Science Mobile Muffins and The Highland Park Thursday
Evening Gentlemen’s Society Circuit Bending
Marching Band & Ladies’ Auxiliary.
And of course, there’s the Hot Springs,
Arkansas, World’s Shortest St. Patrick’s Day
Parade with a route that is only 98 feet long.
Participants include Irish Elvises, the San
Diego Chicken and bagpipes.
My point is this: We don’t have parades of
100,000 jack-booted storm troopers, nuclear
warhead-tipped intercontinental missiles and
enough tanks to flatten Hoboken, New Jersey
without firing a shot. Our military parades
simply and humbly honor the fallen and thank
the serving.
American parades are for fun and service
and the best of patriotism. So get ready for one
of our own, right here at home.
Please accept the Jamestown Gazette’s
invitation this week to enjoy Frewsburg’s
celebration of Old Home Week. It’s a carnival,
a festival of the finest country fair style food, a
night sky filled with fireworks, and of course,
an hour-long parade honoring and supporting
Frewsburg’s firefighters and first responders
who keep watch day and night over 90 square
miles of Southern Chautauqua County for us.
They’re here and they’re ours because of your
support.
Enjoy the parade, and as always, enjoy the
read.
Walt Pickut
Editor
The Jamestown Gazette
PS: You have to love a nation that celebrates its
independence every July 4, not with a parade of
guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White
House in a show of strength and muscle, but with
family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the
potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is
patriotism.

The 8th Annual “Art in the Wilds” Show to be Held June 28-29
Article Contributed by
Art in the Wilds
Under the shade of some fine old oak, black
cherry, and hemlock trees a group of fine artists
and artisans assemble to display their work. It’s
the fourth weekend in June and the natural setting and friendly small town atmosphere of Kane,
Pennsylvania, have lured the artists to Evergreen
Park for the Eighth Annual Art in the Wilds outdoor show. The white tents are set up and out of
the cars and vans come wonderful teases –brilliantly colored canvases, tiny boxes with shimmering treasures, smooth-as-satin woodturnings,
and delicately drawn figures. The artists are setting the stage for a beautiful show.
Sitting on a porch on a spring evening in 2006,
the Art in the Wilds show began as a discussion
amongst friends. Wouldn’t it be great to make
Kane a destination for fine artwork? Co-founders
David and Marilyn Blackmore knew that there
was already interest in the area for the arts. Kane’s
location nestled in the state-designated “Pennsylvania Wilds” region, produced the name of the
show. After researching other art shows and interviewing artists and show organizers, a committee
of people with specific skills was put into action.
With the goal to expand the role of the arts in our
rural communities, Art in the Wilds has, from the
beginning, placed a strong emphasis on showcasing quality work.
Placing a top priority on providing an exceptional show, the organizers work hard year to
meet the needs of the participating artists while
providing the visitors with a fresh experience.
Browsing the artwork visitors have the opportunity to talk with each artist and discover what
inspires them to create their unique artwork and
artists are encouraged to demonstrate their techniques on site. Watching as a mound of wet clay
is turned into a fine bowl or mug is both informative and inspiring for the viewer.
Art in the Wilds is a juried art show. To be accepted into the show, the artists must go through
an application process. Submitted
photographs of their recent work
are juried on overall impact,
originality, presentation, design, and mastery of their
chosen technique. All work
must be the artist’s original
creations, made by hand.
The artists displaying their
work come primarily from
Pennsylvania and neighboring states in the mid-Atlantic
region. They bring a variety
of creative media including
acrylic, oil, and watercolor
painting, drawing, pastels, woodturning and
woodworking, jewelry, photography, ceramics,
glass, fiber arts, leather and metal sculpture.
Located in the northern Alleghenies of Pennsylvania and surrounded on three sides by the
Allegheny National Forest, Art in the Wilds attracts visitors from a wide radius, including western Pennsylvania, western New York and eastern
Ohio. They have discovered that the Art in the
Wilds show is an ideal setting to browse and purchase the artwork of the creative artists and artisans. To get to Kane, PA, visitors travel through
beautiful hardwood forests, enjoy the lushness
of June in the Pennsylvania Wilds. Free parking
around the perimeter of the park invites visitors
to step out and stroll the artists’ booths.
The Art in the Wilds show is organized by an
all-volunteer team of committee members under
the leadership of co-founder Marilyn Blackmore.
All of the show organizers work hard to represent
quality artwork and a balance of the different creative media to ensure a tantalizing shopping
experience. The committee works year
round to set dates, produce marketing materials, plan the venue,
and recruit vendors. The critical job of securing the artist,
sponsors, and vendors is a
process that begins many
months ahead of the show.
The director and committee members are all volunteers. Local sponsors are
recruited to support advertising and marketing efforts.
The show has successfully qualified for grants
from Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts (supported by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts), the
Lumber Heritage Region, and the Kane Community Development Foundation. The Kane
community welcomes the many visitors during
the show weekend and the artists and visitors appreciate the hospitality tent and the cadre of onsite volunteers. It thrives on the crucial support
of the sponsors in the community. Significant donors include the Kane Community Hospital, an
Affiliate of UPMC Hamot and Cameron, Elk and
McKean LINK to Aging and Disability Resources
and. The friendly atmosphere of the Kane community, along with the quality of the work being
exhibited, has contributed to the growth of the
show, which began in 2007.
Visitors to the Art in the Wilds show can stroll
over to the historic Kane Depot, one block from
the park. There they will find ArtWorks at the Depot, and artists’ cooperative, which displays and
sells the work of area artists. Also at the depot are
local historic artifacts and a selection of Holgate
toys. A variety of food vendors are available in Evergreen Park for lunch and snacks and there are
restaurants available in ‘Uptown’ Kane.
The Eighth Annual Art in the Wilds show will
run from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. on Saturday and
Sunday, June 28-29. “Coyote Moon” the musical
duo of Denise Drummond and George Stephen
will perform in the gazebo 3-5 p.m. Sunday afternoon. Check our website www.artinthewilds.
org for more information or Facebook: “Art in the
Wilds”
As part of Kane’s 150th Anniversary Celebration, an encampment of the Bucktail Regiment
originally led by Kane’s founder General Thomas
L. Kane, will occupy a nearby location in Evergreen Park.

Galactic Systems Headquarters Infinity Announces Plans to Move
to New Downtown Location
Requests Submissions for
Lynn Building to Provide More Space,
4th Annual Space Art Show
Article Contributed by
Galactic Systems Headquarters
The 4th Annual Space Art show will take
place in The Forum at Galactic Systems
Headquarters on July 16th at 7 p.m. At this
time, the Forum is calling for submissions
from artists for space related art.
This artistic celebration of space
takes place each
year during the
anniversary of the
Apollo 11 moon
mission. The artists involved are
invited to run wild
through the cosmos creating art
from robots to
spaceships, and science to stars. Artists that work with
all types of media
and subject matter are encouraged
to submit their
work, as long as it
is somehow space
related or inspired.
Space themed science fiction inspired works, with both serious and absurd
viewpoints are encouraged. Also welcomed
are historical tribute artwork and depictions
of real space achievements. There is no limit
to the number of works that can be submitted and there are no size restrictions. Submissions must be emailed to [email protected] by July 10th.
Past Space Art exhibits have displayed art
from all over the United States and world,
including Oregon, Louisiana, Mexico, and
Spain. In past shows, local artist Gary Robert Peters Jr. has contributed two intriguing
works of art, including a historical tribute to
Laika, the first dog in space. The other is a
more fanciful work, showing an astronaut
walking a dog on the moon in a little doggy
spacesuit. This is
just one of many
featured
artists
who have been a
part of this exciting space themed
gallery show in
Jamestown, NY.
The
annual
Space Art show is
a project of Galactic Systems, LLC.
Part of the company’s mission is
to advocate for
aerospace research
and education, by
creating a place
in the community
for scientists and
citizens to explore
creativity, science
and ideas. Leonardo Da Vinci once
said “Art is the Queen of all sciences communicating knowledge to all the generations
of the world.” Space Art 2014 represents this
ideal by creatively advocating for a robust
aerospace engineering infrastructure, which
is vital to improving the economy, as well as
the pace and prevalence of manufacturing in
the United States.

Capacity for Youth Arts Organization
Article Contributed by
Infinity Visual and
Performing Arts, Inc.
The Infinity Visual and Performing Arts, Inc.
Board of Directors and Executive Director Shane
Hawkins are pleased to announce plans to relocate from Infinity’s current home at 115 E. Third
St., Jamestown to the ground floor of the Lynn
Building at 301 East Second St., Jamestown. As
the county's leading visual and performing arts
organization, Infinity is thrilled to find a new
home that will provide more space to grow and
expand arts programming.
“During the past couple years, we’ve seen a
sharp increase in student enrollment
at Infinity,” explained Jason
Sample, president of
Infinity’s board of
directors. “As a
result, we realized that the
need for additional space
was quickly becoming an issue.
At the start of this
year, we made it a priority
to look for and explore various options. We soon learned that space was available in
the Lynn building and with the help and generosity of Lynn Development LLC, we were able to
finalize an agreement to move Infinity into a new
home. The new location will not only provide
nearly 40 percent more space for Infinity, but also
long-lasting stability for the organization.”
“The partners and management of Lynn Development are truly inspired by the honorable
work done by Infinity. It is our privilege to be the
stewards of their new home and to do our part to
contribute to their legacy for decades to come,”
Jason Spain, President of Lynn Development said.
The agreement between Infinity and Lynn
Development covers a period of ten years, with
two additional five-year options to extend the
lease. This means that the Lynn building could
serve as the home for Infinity up through the year
2034.
"We can't express enough our appreciation
and gratitude to Lynn Development for provid-
ing Infinity with this opportunity," Hawkins said.
"Maintaining a presence in downtown Jamestown was very important to us. The fact that the
Lynn building is practically across the street from
Jamestown High School, where many of our students come from, is a huge plus. Add to that the
additional space we'll have available for programming and it's safe to say that we are extremely
pleased with the new location. We couldn't have
asked for a better outcome."
In the coming weeks, Infinity will begin an
aggressive campaign to help prepare the 14,100sq/ft space for occupancy, which is projected to
cost $220,000. The campaign will not only focus
on fundraising, but also recruiting volunteers and
construction supplies to help reduce expenses.
“Our goal is to be ready to move into the
new space by mid-September,”
said Hawkins. “Between
now and then, we’ll
be meeting with
and mobilizing
community
stakeholders
to help us bring
this project to
completion.”
Infinity will continue to operate out of
its East Third St. location, which is
owned by the city of Jamestown, until the new
space is ready.
“We’d like to express our gratitude to the city
for leasing space to Infinity the past several years.
We’ve seen remarkable growth during those years
and we are so pleased to be able to continue our
presence in the downtown Jamestown area, expand our services and build our brand throughout the community.” Sample said.
Anyone wishing to learn more about the relocation project is invited to contact Infinity.
Designs and blueprints for the new location have
also been drafted and are available for viewing inside Infinity’s current location at 115 E. Third, St.
More details on the relocation effort and
campaign will be coming in future weeks. For
more information, to make a donation toward
the campaign, or to find out how to volunteer for
the project, contact Infinity at (716) 664-0991 or

During a rain filled spring that left many throughout the Chautauqua region underwater, the American Red Cross of Southwestern New York responded
by providing residents shelter and flood clean up kits.
To assist with future flooding and other disasters
in the community, the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation awarded $10,000 to the Red Cross
from the Chautauqua County Assistance Fund. To
date, the Chautauqua County Assistance Fund has
granted over $50,000 to the Red Cross for disaster
relief services.
According to Bill Tucker, American Red Cross
of Southwestern New York executive director, this
grant will enhance the impact volunteers are making in the community to provide local disaster relief.
“Volunteers do over 90 percent of our essential humanitarian service delivery to families in need here in
Chautauqua County. Our volunteers are incredibly
dedicated, and are the next to respond, right after our
wonderful first responders, whenever a family needs
aid in the aftermath of a disaster. None of our work
would be possible without the tremendous time, effort, and knowledge contributed by our phenomenal
volunteers, or without the generous financial contributions we receive from our local supporters.”
Chautauqua County disaster response teams are
trained to respond to the “silent disasters” that occur on a regular basis, to include single family and
multi-family house fires. While they do not get the
attention that other major disasters may get, these
events are just as catastrophic to families that have
lost everything and are in need of immediate shelter,
food, clothing, and emotional support. In addition,
when major disasters occur in other parts of our nation, these same volunteers are called upon to travel
to the impacted areas and to use their experience to
help others in need.
Over the last 11 months Red Cross disaster volunteers serving Chautauqua County have conducted
48 operations to provide disaster relief to 315 people,
provided direct financial aid to 166 residents, and
opened 10 shelters in response to floods, blizzards,
and road closures. The Red Cross in Chautauqua
County has also provided free preparedness training
to 647 residents as part of their initiative to help improve community resiliency.
If you would like to become a trained Red Cross
disaster volunteer able to respond locally, regionally,
or nationally, please call the American Red Cross of
Southwestern New York at 664-5115 or go to www.
redcross.org/swny and learn how to join.

Red Cross and the services they offer, or to make a

The JHS Raider Readers recently held
their bi-annual book swap in the library. Students and staff were asked to bring books
from home that they have read and would be
willing to trade. The books change every set
so students have fresh and interesting choices
from which to choose. The book swap is just
one of many activities the club participates
in including: collecting, sorting, and donating books to the Chautauqua Striders' After
School Program and publishing a monthly
"top ten" reading list at JHS. The Raider Readers Book Swap is a very popular activity that
the club holds right before holiday and summer breaks to encourage reading.
Senior Raider Reader, Danielle Bertolini,
commented: "The book swap is a great opportunity for students who wouldn't otherwise
take the initiative to look for books on their
own. This year, I swapped for a beautiful copy
of Oliver Twist and a Dan Brown thriller!"
The JHS Raider Readers promotes reading just for the fun of it. Students read, discuss, and share their thoughts, reactions, and
responses to the books each month, with
the help of advisor Barbi Price. The Raider
Readers participate in community reading activities such as "The Big Read," "Books on the
Bus," and "Read Across America."

On Friday evening, June 27, from 5:00 to

work is among those featured in the current
exhibition at RTPI, environmental impact,
which runs through July 6. The June 27 reception and program are free and open to the

outdoorsman, cole has lived in Upstate New
York his entire life and resides in the catskill
mountain region. He earned his Bachelor of
Fine Arts at State University of New York at

include white-tailed deer, trout, wild turkey,
hunting dogs and waterfowl.
Cole is a signature member of the society
of animal artists, a select group dedicated to
"promoting excellence in the portrayal of creatures sharing our planet." His works have been

as if beauty has been harnessed to foretell the
end," Michael Charles Tobias and Jane Gray

priceless,” Lindsay added, “but it costs. Every penny is worth it to the community, of
course, so we do everything we can to make
the best use if it.”
About 80 percent of local emergency calls are for the Company’s EMS (Emergency Medical Service) first responders,
paramedics and EMTs
(Emergency
Medical
Technicians), according
to Lindsay. Even hard
to reach emergencies
are in range now with
the Company’s specially outfitted ATV.
“We’ve put out remote grass fires and
saved injured people
from the deep woods
who would have been
lost without the ATV,”
Lindsay added. Locations with limited water
supplies can be served,
too, by the 1500 gallon per minute water
pumper tank truck.
The fire company also
deploys a rescue boat
for water emergencies.
Safety First
The safety conscious
and experienced crews
at the Frewsburg Fire Company even apply
their training to running their fairgrounds
and parades safely. New York State safety
inspectors are called in for a day of careful,
detailed carnival grounds and ride checks
before the event. This year’s selection of
Main Event Attractions of Syracuse, NY,
reflect their outstanding safety record over many years in serving
events like the Frewsburg
Old Home Week, according to Moore.
Outfitting Your
Firefighter
Complete gear for a
single firefighter helmet, boots, fireproof
coat and bunkers
(pants) – can cost
as much as $2,500,
topped off with a
$1,000 air pack.
“We’ve had a few injuries over the years,”
Lindsay said, “it’s
dangerous work. But
we’ve never had a firefighter fatality. It takes
a combination of the
best gear, good training and smart teamwork.” Old Home
Week is all about community support for
community safety.

Prendergast Library
The Prendergast Library Art Gallery
will feature Helen Gilbert & Students,
Creativity on Display from June 27
through July 25.
Members of the group will greet visitors during an opening reception from
6:30 to 8 p.m. Friday, June 27. The event
is free and open to the public, and refreshments will be served. A well-known local artist, Mrs. Gilbert has taught weekly art classes to adult
students for years. “Most of them hear of
me by word of mouth,” she said.
The work of about a dozen students
will be represented at the library along
with a variety of pieces by their teacher.
“Acrylics are so popular now, amateurs
rarely paint in oil,” Mrs. Gilbert said,
but visitors will see many other types
of painting including theorems, reverse
glass paintings, and watercolors.
“Theorems have to be oil on velvet
using a very old process. Artists always
copied the look using pastels and soft colors, but the one in this show is bright colored, a step in a new direction,” she said.
Reverse glass painting is done on the
“wrong” side and on two or three pieces
of glass to give it dimension. Viewers will
also see metal trays decorated with gold
leaf and crazy quilting. “That’s very enchanting. No two people can ever make
one alike,” according to Mrs. Gilbert.
One woman has been coming to class
for 47 years, while others are new. There
is also a class for men, and all students
work on individual projects. “I build
confidence in people. If they think they
couldn’t do it, and after a while they feel
very comfortable, I love that part of it,”
the teacher said.
Each artist is developing, and the
works reflect various stages of accomplishment. “What’s important to me is
that they’re able to express their own
creativity,” Mrs. Gilbert said. “When
people bring things in or tell me about
something they saw and think they’d like
to try it themselves, I say, ‘I can help you
do that.’ I enable them.” The next library show will be works
by artists from Aspire of Western New
York.
Library hours are 9 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.
Monday through Friday; 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Saturdays; and 1 to 5 p.m. Sundays. Prendergast Library is located at 509 Cherry
St., Jamestown. For more information,
call 484-7135, Ext. 225.

Downsizing, or moving into a smaller
space is a difficult decision to make for
many reasons, including the loss of independence. The challenge of maintaining
one’s own home is often the first thing
that causes many seniors to consider other
housing alternatives. Concerns about future needs for increased assistance with
daily tasks can
complicate matters
further.
The
Tanglewood Group’s ‘Cottages on the Pond’
offer
worry-free
living.
Utilities,
phone and cable,
as well as all maintenance - such as
lawn care, snow
removal, and trash
pick-up are included in the base
rental price. Cottage residents can
choose from a variety of extra services
such as transportation, housekeeping, laundry, meal delivery and medication
management for an additional fee as they
become necessary. This continuum of care
allows for gradual aging-in-place.
In addition to health and maintenance
assistance, Tanglewood also offers many
social activities to residents of the cottages
including picnics and cookouts, fishing
tournaments, dances and musical entertainment. Access to the Louis Ferreri Memorial Park and the Wellness Center are
also included in the monthly fees.
The neighborhood feel and the personal attention that cottage residents receive
from the staff help families to feel secure in
the knowledge that their loved ones are safe
and looked after
even though they
are living in their
own home. As one
cottage resident’s
daughter writes; “It
has given the family a great sense of
peace to know that
people are looking
in on my mother
daily since we can’t
always be there.”
The Cottages
on the Pond are
the perfect blend
of healthcare and
independence. The
monthly pay one
price option is easily the lowest cost alternative in Chautauqua County for couples
that are exploring new housing options.
Call 716-483-2876 for more information
on how to live a “life easily managed”.

FAITH MATTERS with PASTOR SCOTT HANNON
Join Me in the Kitchen with Vicki McGraw
Road Rage
Summer Celebrations
St. John Lutheran Church, Amhert, NY
Y
esterday, I was driving down
the Kensington Expressway in
Buffalo, completely stressed
out of my mind. I had to run into the
city to pick up my daughters, Molly
and Laney, from day care. The plan
was to run them home, drop them off
with my wife (who may or may not be
home), and then head back downtown
for a wedding rehearsal. I had 45
minutes to accomplish a task that
normally takes an hour.
My mind was racing while I was
racing. I was worried about being late
for the rehearsal. Frustrated that I
didn’t have enough time. Concerned
that my wife might not be home. And
that’s when I heard my daughter Molly
in the back seat say, “Jesus.”
My first thought was, “Jesus! Did
I just say ‘Jesus’?!” That’s when Molly
said it again. “Jesus.” And again…
“Jesus.” And finally she said, “Jesus
Christ is born.” As it turns out, she was
reading a Christmas book (which I
assume normal kids read in June).
Hearing my daughter repeating the
word “Jesus” in the middle of my panic
and road rage was cute and calming.
I started thinking about what really
matters and I reprioritized my life.
Step one: Get out of your head and
talk to your kids.
Step two: Get home and make sure
they’re safe and taken care of.
Step three: Head back out deliberately
and carefully. After all, being a few
minutes late is not ideal, but it also isn’t
the end of the world.
“Jesus.”
“Jesus.”
“Jesus.”
“Jesus Christ is born.”
Amen, Molly. Thanks for the reminder.

inally, our weather seems to have
turned a corner. It is like we woke up
one day and flipped the switch…a
cold, wet spring has turned into the glorious
bright colored warmth of summer! This past
week has given us some of the warmest days
yet of this young season, albeit a tad humid!
This time of year also gives us many reasons
to get together and celebrate. Jamestown
students have already had the chance to walk
across the stage at Chautauqua and receive
their diplomas, other surrounding schools
will repeat the scene over the coming week.
Father’s Day gave us an opportunity to honor
all that our dads have done – and continue to
do - for us. And in my household, one of the
more exciting days was my son, Todd’s, 21st
birthday. We continue to celebrate!
July 4th is just around the corner and will
be another one of the focal points of our
summer celebrations. My brother, Scott,
was born on the 4th of July, so his birthday
will be our next family celebration. Much
to his disagreement, I do have to remind
him that the national celebration does NOT
revolve around him! We do, however, usually
celebrate with him at some point during the
day. My Mom will generally have us over, and
food is always a big part of our get-togethers.
Birthday cake, of course, but the rest of the
menu can be chosen by the birthday boy if
he wishes, so it will be most likely be hot
dogs and hamburgers. Add to that a couple of
salads and maybe some fresh fruit and we’ve
got a great picnic buffet!
As I have preached before, when planning
picnic menus, you must be aware of the
ingredients that do not handle the heat very
well. Any mayonnaise or salad dressing based
dish can be dangerous to have sitting out
of refrigeration on a hot day. It is better to
have salads that have clear dressings rather
than creamy dressings, as creamy dressings
spoil much quicker than others. The rule of
thumb is to keep cold foods refrigerated or
on ice at a temperature of 45° or below to
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
avoid spoilage. Likewise, hot foods should be
kept at a holding temperature of 145° to keep
them safe to eat. Any food that has been out
of a safe temperature for two hours should
be discarded (not just reheated or recooled).
Nothing ends a party quicker than a stomach
ache!
Vinaigrettes and other oil and vinegar
based dressings are perfect for summer
salads. Not only will they hold up to warmer
outdoor temperatures, but the flavor
combinations you can try are endless. By
simply combining extra virgin olive oil
(EVOO) with an acid, such as white vinegar
or lemon juice, and adding fresh herbs, you
can make an enticing dressing for boring old
potato or pasta salad. I like to infuse the herbs
into the vinegar before making the dressing;
simply add your fresh herbs to white vinegar
and allow the flavors to mingle in a sealed
container in a dark place for a few days. The
light flavors of your herbs will blend with the
acid of the vinegar and leave you with a subtly
flavored base for your dressing. We tend to
think of traditional flavors and styles for our
side salads, but don’t be afraid to experiment
and come up with a new “signature salad” of
your own! I’ll bet everyone will be asking for
your secret recipe!
Balsamic Potato Salad
• 3-4 lbs red skinned potatoes (washed, skin
left on)
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2 stalks celery, diced
• ½ sweet red bell pepper, diced
• 1 pt grape tomatoes, cut in halves
• 1 c sliced black olives
• 6 hard boiled eggs, diced
• 1 carrot, peeled and shredded
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 T fresh parsley, chopped
• 1-2 c balsamic dressing (dress to taste)
• Cut potatoes into bite sized cubes and boil
until just tender. Drain and gently toss
with ½ c dressing; set aside to chill while
preparing other ingredients.
• When potatoes have chilled, gently mix
with all of the other ingredients, being
careful to not mash the potatoes or the
eggs. Add dressing to taste and desired
wetness. Sprinkle top with additional
chopped parsley to garnish. Chill
thoroughly before serving

In that moment I realized how
easily distracted I can be. I spend too
much time thinking about what’s next
and not enough time with the people
I am with. I check my cell phone
incessantly. Sermons swim through my
brain when I should be listening to my
wife. And to tell you the truth, it’s kind
of exhausting.
In scripture Jesus says, “Give your
entire attention to what God is doing
right now, and don’t get worked up
about what may or may not happen
tomorrow. God will help you deal with
whatever hard things come up when
the time comes.” (Matthew 6:34 The
Message translation)
“Give my attention to what God
is up to right now.” That’s a novel
concept.
“Don’t get worked up about what
may or may not happen tomorrow.”
Impossible.
As crazy as it sounds, I think Jesus
knew what he was talking about. He
knows we are wired to worry. He
knows how easily distracted we can
be. And so he gives real life, concrete
counsel: Get out of your head and get
in the moment. Take care of right now
and don’t worry about tomorrow.
I’m going to try that today. I think
you should too. And when we fail (like
we tend to do) let’s try again. After all,
our current pattern only begets more
drama and stress and Jesus really does
have the words to eternal life.

...FOR AN OLD GUY
THAT IS!
Q: After having an extended playing career
in professional baseball, how do you feel that
has helped you develop as a coach?
A: Well, I think my career as a catcher helped
me a lot. Being a catcher helped me understand
a lot about the game. It helped me learn about
pitching, while also focusing on hitting. I almost
felt like the whole game was always right in front
of me. I learned how to help pitchers through
the game as their catcher, and I tried my best to
put my teammates in positions to be successful.
That’s some of what I’m going to try to do as a
manager.

DHHS Announces
Upcoming 2014 Animal
Rabies Immunization Clinics
Article Contributed by
Chautauqua County
Department of Health &
Human Services
Vaccinations will be provided free of charge
to all dogs, cats and domesticated ferrets three
(3) months of age and older. All pets must be
on a leash or in a cage and pet owners should
bring rabies vaccination records for each animal
that will be receiving a shot to ensure proper and
effective vaccination.
New York State Public Health Law requires
each dog, cat and domesticated ferret over the age
of four months to be vaccinated against rabies and
county residents are encouraged to be responsible
pet owners by having their pets vaccinated.
Rabies is a very serious disease of warmblooded animals caused by a virus. Raccoons,
bats, skunks and foxes are the common disease
carriers. The virus is transmitted to humans and
animals through saliva and it can enter the body
from a bite, scratch, scrape or open cut. The rabies
virus infects the central nervous system and can
cause brain swelling and ultimately death within
days of the onset of symptoms.
For more information about the clinics and
rabies in general, visit http://www.co.chautauqua.

When we support local businesses we are truly supporting our
local economy. Your purchasing
power goes back into the pockets
of entrepreneurial business owners and their employees who then,
in turn, support other local businesses and service providers.
This summer, we are urging everyone to shop locally to boost our
own Chautauqua County economy. Helping to drive foot traffic
into local businesses is one of the
five focal points of the Chautauqua
County Chamber of Commerce.
When you shop local or utilize local service providers, you
are supporting local businesses
and local jobs and you are making an investment in the future of
our community. Small business is
a critical component to a viable
community. When you buy local
you make a significant impact on
your community. You may be saving a job or you may be helping
that local business owner make a
new investment, hire an additional
employee, or make an improvement to their store.
The Civic Economic Survey
of Independent Businesses, in a
recent study, showed that local,
independently owned businesses
in all retail sectors have a 48% recirculation rate. That means that
48-percent of all sales go back into
the local economy when consumers shop locally. For restaurants,
the same study shows the recirculation rate is even higher at 65%.
Researcher David Boyle of the
New Economic Foundation said,
"Money is like blood, it needs to
keep moving around to keep the
economy going."
What are you doing to keep the
'blood' moving through our local
economy? Buying local speeds up
the velocity at which money moves
through the economy. When currency circulates more quickly, the
money goes through more hands.
As a result more people have the
benefit of the money and what the
money has purchased for them. So
think of it this way. When you buy
local there is a good chance that
what is spent is going to benefit
you and your family somewhere
down the line. Maybe it is that
college age daughter looking for
an entry level job position in retail, or it is your uncle who owns
a local restaurant or your cousin
the contractor who is asked to put
a new façade on a locally owned
business. Money spent in the local
economy has the chance of helping your family versus the dollars
you spend outside the area.
We have a diverse array of businesses in Chautauqua County.
Any time we make a purchase or
select a service we have an opportunity to support our local economy by making that investment,
whether small or large, right here
in our County. Local shopping
makes both dollars and sense for
our economy.
For more information about
the wide variety of products and
services provided by Chautauqua County businesses, visit the
Chamber website at www.chautauquachamber.org.

CCB & ICBA Provides
Tips for First-Time
Homebuyers
Community Bankers Serve as an Excellent
Resource for Consumers Looking to
Purchase a Home and Plan for a Mortgage
Article Contributed by
Cattaraugus County
Bank
&
Independent
Community Bankers
of America
With the summer real estate season upon us, many
Americans are considering
purchasing a home over the
next few months. The total
mortgage originations market is estimated to be around
$1 trillion in 2014. With that
in mind, CCB (Cattaraugus
County Bank), the Independent Community Bankers
of America (ICBA) and the
nation’s more than 6,500
other community banks are
on hand to help homebuyers navigate the mortgage
process.
“Buying a home is likely
the biggest purchase most
people will make, and CCB
is an excellent resource to
help guide homebuyers
through the process,” said
Mike Wimer, CCB President. “There are new mortgage rules and regulations in
place. We know these rules
and regulations and we are
available to help potential
homebuyers by providing accurate and relevant information. Like many community
bankers across the country,
we can help our neighbors in
our local communities find
a mortgage that fits their financial needs, budget and
lifestyle.”
The following are eight
suggestions for prospective
first-time homebuyers:
• Know your monthly
income and budget, including how much you
spend on rent, utilities,
entertainment, clothing, food and transportation.
• Discuss your finances
with your community
bank before you begin
looking for a home. It is
important to stay within
your means when purchasing a house.
• Gather and organize
paperwork and documents. Items you should
have readily available
include paycheck stubs,
W2 forms, tax returns
and bank and investment statements for the
last two years.
• Check your credit report so you are aware of
what your credit history
and current score is before applying for a loan.
Credit reporting agencies must give you one
free report annually.
• Maxing out credit cards
or falling behind on
other loan payments
could create issues
when applying for a
mortgage. Keep tabs on
your spending habits
before applying for a
mortgage, and don’t go
on a spending spree afterwards either.
• Work with us - your
community banker - to
figure out how much
you can borrow and
which mortgage product is right for you.
Your local community
banker at CCB can explain available mortgage options- including
rate adjustments, fees
and other loan features
- so you are prepared
for the loan closing and
not surprised down the
road.
• Learn what current
mortgage rates are. We
can help you understand how that translates into monthly
mortgage payments.
• Check with us for special
first-time-homebuyer loan options.
“CCB’s lenders work with
both our customers (existing and future) and help
give advice on finding mortgages that homebuyers can
afford,” said Wimer. “There
are many steps to ensure the
home buying process goes
smoothly, and we want to
help with this. We can help
homebuyers determine the
most affordable mortgage
options, and are available to
provide additional financial
guidance if needed.”

Secret Gardens Tour
Article Contributed by
Jamestown Audubon
You’ll be inspired by gardens large and small,
traditional and contemporary, at the Jamestown
(NY) Audubon Center & Sanctuary’s 11th Secret Gardens Tour.
The Saturday, July 12, event boasts eight gardens, from pocket size to palatial, in Jamestown,
Lakewood, and Celoron, New York. One of
these hidden treasures has been so popular that
this is its fourth time on the circuit. And imagine
a fallen barn turned into a sunken garden!
As if eight stunning gardens weren’t enough,
Audubon has added some new features this year.
The event will include a drawing for a beautiful hand-crafted tote bag and matching purse
with a garden theme. Donated by Jamestowner
Mary Anne Harp, often credited with the original idea for Secret Gardens, the ensemble was
hand-crafted by local artisan Brenda Everett. The
tote bag will be on display in the Nature Center
building at Audubon prior to the tour.
The availability of snacks and water at some
of the gardens is another new feature of this distinctive tour that draws visitors from all over.
The Secret Gardens Tour runs from 10:30
a.m. to 4 p.m., rain or shine.
Maps to each of the gardens are provided
with the ticket.
Presale tickets for $10 can be purchased at:
• Jamestown Audubon: 1600 Riverside
Rd., Jamestown, NY
• Four Seasons Garden Market (until June
30): 3181 N. Main St. Ext., Jamestown,

Randolph Manor
Article by
Katrina Fuller
A striking Victorian home stands warm and
inviting, aglow in the morning light. The delicious
scent of homemade foods waft across the porch,
reminiscent of returning home. Seniors and staff
alike enjoy the calm and caring atmosphere, each
day chocked full of fun activities, and of course, a
whole lot of love. “It’s like a big family - we are a
pretty close-knit group,” says David Mauro, coowner of Randolph Manor in cozy Randolph,
NY. Randolph Manor is dedicated to the care and
keeping of their residents, providing quality care on
a personal level.
Mrs. Mauro, David’s mother, opened the home
because of her dedication to the elderly. “She had a
real love of the elderly - it’s what she wanted to do,”
David explains. “It was kind of hard for her - she was a
widow left with six children.” She attained her GED,
learned to drive, and studied nursing in Jamestown.
After working as a nurse at Jamestown General
Hospital, and later, in Dr. Sinatra’s office, she found
the opportunity to open the Manor in Randolph.
Randolph Manor opened on April 1st, 1973, with
only 20 beds. In later years, David and his brother,
Steve Mauro, joined the family business, and have
been invested in its future ever since. Expanding to
50 beds in 1992, Randolph Manor has the capacity
and the compassion necessary for such an important
role in elderly care.

“We pride ourselves on being a very clean facility
with home cooked meals,” David explains. “Our
meals are made from scratch - yesterday, they had
homemade chicken and biscuits.” The food is only one
enticing feature of the home - residents have a plethora
of activities going on at any time, from arts and crafts
to musicians who come in for entertainment. “Bingo
is the favorite,” he recalls. “When it’s nice out, we try to
take the residents out for a picnic in the park.”
Holidays are a special event at Randolph Manor,
with each occasion a cause for celebration. “At
Christmas, Santa comes with a real reindeer and
delivers presents - they get a kick out of that,” David
says. The other holidays are just as important, with
the Easter Bunny visiting to deliver Easter baskets
on Easter and Valentine’s Day. A King and Queen are
elected for the day, voted on by their fellow residents.
The home offers beautician and barber services, a
weekly visiting lab for blood draws, as well as their
most important feature: a solid and loving staff. “My
