Reflections, September 10, 2010 Page 1 From The Executive Director by Lynn Tanner It’s hard to imagine, but the summer months have come and gone. The Oberon Pool is closed and school is back in session. Summer is a wonderful time of year, but I know that I, for one, tend to push myself and do too much during those months. So, even though my children are no longer of school age, I look forward to the schools reopening and getting back on schedule, so to speak. And with the return of school, of course, there are children waiting at their respective bus stops and school buses running throughout the community. We will be install- ing our speed display unit sporadically throughout the community to bring to the attention of drivers their speed. Please drive carefully to keep our children safe. The Oberon Pier upgrade will be started soon. The first step in this process is to have the walkway around Oberon Lake replaced, and needed drainage added to the area. During this time that area will be unavailable to walkers, etc. We will post this information on our web site to keep you up to date. The next step in the renovation project is to replace the railing. Weather de- pendent, that project will be done this year. If it’s not able to be completed this fall, parts have been ordered and maintenance will be able and ready to start on this project with the first break in the weather next spring. The Communications Committee has just completed a summer hiatus, which was a well deserved break after the time and effort that the committee dedicated, along with staff, to redesign the web site. They are now going to reconvene and look more closely at the website for content to be updated, broken links, user friendliness, etc. All these areas and more will be evaluated. Now that you’ve all hopefully had the chance to use the new web site, the committee would like to hear from you, the resident, as to what you like/ don’t like about the site. What are some areas that could use some improvements? Please submit your constructive criticisms and/or compliments to the committee at: info@ radissoncommunity.org.

Although I grew up in Central New York, I had been living in New England for over 12 years, when I had the opportunity to move back to the area. When family and friends learned that I was moving to Radisson, the response I recieved was “that’s the place with all the rules and they won’t let you do anything without getting permission first.” The flip side of that perception is that Radisson is a great place to raise a family, with the parks, trails, pools, tennis courts and a world class golf course all within our community borders. Because of all the extras and the “rules” many residents find their homes will hold their property values, when compared to other neighborhoods within the area. Which is why I chose Radisson to make my home. As a member of the Architectural Standards Committee (ASC), I learn something new every day about the approval process. The ASC is composed of 7 members, one of which is an Architect who lives within the community. Over the past two years, from a resident perspective and now as a committee member, here are a few things I’ve learned… -Sometimes (many, many times) people don’t submit complete applications! Be sure to complete applications prior to submission. And yes, I’ve been guilty of this as well. Typically there is a small checklist on every application. Review and ensure all items listed are attached. -Photos, photos, photos… One photo says it all. Photos of the area to be impacted are tremendously helpful. -If you’re not sure, have questions, don’t know what a survey is, can’t find the guidelines, call the RCA, and ask for John. We have many good resources and one of them is named John Mancinelli, the ASC Administrator. If you are unsure, or have any questions, John is a great resource for residents as well as the committee. He can provide advice or assistance with any application. John may be contacted by e-mail [email protected] or by calling the RCA office at 635-7171. -I never thought of that! Resource number two…as mentioned above we have an excellent Architect that sits on the committee. His name is Joe Cavino and he provides technical expertise to the committee. Many times a homeowner will submit a project and Joe will make suggestions that will improve the project that you may not have thought about. I find that he has the ability to think of a project from a different perspective and often provides great suggestions to homeowners! -Please don’t avoid or ignore a violation. I am amazed by how many people receive a violation, and don’t respond! Maybe the thought is, if I ignore it then it will disappear. It won’t. I always tell people, if you get something and you don’t understand it, or disagree, you always have the right to discuss it with the committee. 90% of violation notices are very simple to resolve (trash cans on the side of the house, trailer in the driveway, grass too high etc..) please just move it or mow it or whatever it takes to fix it. Your neighbors will thank you. I know that the extra time it takes to get approval for projects can be annoying. However, it’s one of the things that helps to maintain our community and make it a great place to live! Notice Regarding ASC Property Inspections During regular business hours (Monday–Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00) our ASC Administrator will be out in the Radisson Community do- ing property inspections. These inspections include going onto homeowner’s property which is allowed under the Radisson Declaration, Article V, Section 11. All ASC forms & documents can be found on our website: www.radissoncommunity. org. Please Note: The ASC Administrator at times will be wearing an orange safety vest with a Radisson Employee ID tag. ??? Did You Know ??? Applications are required to paint your home the same color? We know what you are thinking…why do I need to submit an application to paint my house the same color it currently is? The reason why we ask is so we know the paint/stain colors will be the same. It also helps to make sure your property folder in the RCA office is up to date. More often than not, people do not know what the paint colors are on the house. We can help to assure you are painting/staining with the right colors when a completed and approved application is on file. If you will be painting/ staining your home the same color you will not need to wait for the next ASC meeting to get approved. If your application is completed and all of the items on the application checklist are checked, your application may be pre-approved before the next scheduled ASC meeting. Paint/Stain applications are available in the RCA office and our website radissoncommunity.org.

There was discussion about the framework that needs to surround good choices. Such a framework involves being honest, loyal, and committed; also being caring, supportive, and encouraging of others and self. Consequences and responsibilities are part of the package of “choice” so that one does not feel entitled to (believe she/he has the right to), but that choice is a privilege and carries consequences on the other side of the coin of choice. Therefore, if I have a choice to behave and think a certain way, I must accept the responsibility and consequences of this action, whether it is positive or negative. The next important point to focus on is how to make good choices and decisions. First, make a sentence in your mind of what choice you want to make. For example, you may decide “I want to get ready for school in the Fall” so this would be your sentence in your mind. Second, brainstorm ways you can go about accomplishing this. This example would be to think of the areas I need to prepare for, such as physically, am I working out in activities to keep in shape? Another area of self preparation is mentally; am I sharpening my mental skills by reading, reflecting, and writing to encourage new thinking? The third area of self is spiritual preparation; am I looking beyond myself to eternal power to reshape my inadequacies and to strengthen my identity and essence at a higher level? Last, am I preparing self socially so I can communicate honestly to make and improve friendships? Have I learned how to say “no” to unhealthy choices? Can I role play to build my assertive skills so I can be confident with others? Now that I have viewed physical, mental, spiritual, and social aspects of myself, I can better decide “how I want to get ready for school in the Fall.” This helps me stay motivated through the rest of the summer and set short-term goals on expectations for the Fall. Out of each of these four areas, I will choose specific activities that will connect with my short-term goals. If the choices are good…I will continue daily; if the choices need to be changed, reevaluate and proceed forward with new choices toward the same short-term goals. As you complete this decision-making process of choice, brainstorming alternatives, acting, evaluating, you can begin new decision-making choices using this framework. How do you choose and apply consequences? Consequences should relate to the situation that occurs. There needs to be loss of privilege or removing of an article that is significantly important to the person who made a wrong choice. This removal needs to occur within 24 hours of the event that happened. Consequences that are given for days and weeks ahead are not as effective. Consequences need to get the individual to personally focus on what needs to change. If a child is old enough, drawing a picture or writing in a personal journal 1) what did I do wrong 2) how do I fix it 3) what do I do the next time. This can bring attention to choices that need to be changed. Live…laugh…love…grow—it’s a choice! Please make a positive choice!!!

Baldwinsville Teacher Participates in Honeywell Ecosystems Institute Nicholas Ohrazda, a teacher at RayMiddle School in Baldwinsville, recently participated in the Honeywell Institute for Ecosystems Education at OnondagaLake. The weeklong program, held at the beginning of August, was lead by naturalists, ecologists, and teachers from the Onondaga Audubon Society and the MontezumaAudubonCenter. Local teachers studied the Onon- dagaLake watershed, including basic watershed concepts, stream ecology concepts, and bird survey skills, and they participated in a field investigation. Ohrazda received classroom resource materials to aid him in bringing innovation into the classroom and in developing lessons for his students.

At one Central New York veterinarian’s practice, 210 dogs and cats tested positive for Lyme Disease this year alone. While dogs and cats are frequently infected and treated with antibiotics, they only become symptomatic 5 to 10 percent of the time. Humans, however, almost always become symptomatic when infected with Lyme Disease. The growing number of reports of Lyme Disease in pets is a warning sign to be vigilant in detecting deer ticks on ourselves. Though more common in eastern New York, the deer tick has made its way toward Central and Northern New York. Statistics for infected humans still reflect a relatively low amount of sufferers (about 100 in both Onondaga and Oswego counties annually). However, the Wadsworth Center for Laboratories and Research of New York State reports New York has the highest number of confirmed cases of Lyme Disease in the United States. The disease is a bacterial infection usually recognized by a distinctive skin lesion, accompanied by headaches, stiff neck, myalgias, fatigue and possible swelling of the lymph nodes. Not all symptoms are seen in every case which complicates a diagnosis. While treatable with antibiotics, unrecognized and/or untreated patients may develop meningoencephalitis, myocarditis or even arthritis, particularly in the knees. Lyme disease may be brief or chronic, persistent and incapacitating. The chronic disease state may resolve in time with or without antibiotic treatment. Patients treated with antibiotics in the early stage of the infection usually recover rapidly and completely. Since Lyme disease first became reportable in 1986, over 77,000 cases have been confirmed in New York State. People who spend time in grassy and wooded environments are at an increased risk of exposure. The chances of being bitten by a deer tick are greater during times of the year when ticks are most active. Young deer ticks, called nymphs, are active from midMay to mid-August and are about the size of poppy seeds. Adult ticks, which are approximately the size of sesame seeds, are most active from March to mid-May and from mid-August to November. Both nymphs and adults can transmit Lyme disease. Ticks can be active any time the temperature is above freezing. Not all deer ticks are infected with the bacteria that cause Lyme disease. Ticks can become infected if they feed on small animals that are infected. The disease can be spread when an infected tick bites a person and stays attached for a period of time. In most cases, the tick must be attached for 36 hours or more before the bacteria can be transmitted. Lyme disease does not spread from one person to another. In 60-80 percent of cases, a rash resembling a bull’s eye or solid patch, about two inches in diameter, appears and expands around or near the site of the bite. Other symptoms appear within 3 to 30 days after a tick bite. Lyme Disease is preventable. In tick-infested areas, your best protection is to avoid contact with soil, leaf litter and vegetation. However, if you garden, hike, camp, hunt, work, or otherwise spend time in the outdoors, you can still protect yourself: • Wear light-colored clothing with a tight weave to spot ticks easily. • Wear enclosed shoes, long pants and a long-sleeved shirt. Tuck pant legs into socks or boots and shirt into pants. • Check clothes and any exposed skin frequently for ticks while outdoors and check again once indoors. Ticks gravitate toward the warmest areas of the body. • Consider using insect repellent. Follow label directions. • Stay on cleared, well-traveled trails. Avoid contacting vegetation. • Avoid sitting directly on the ground or on stone walls. • Keep long hair tied back, especially when gardening. If you do find a tick on yourself or a child, use tweezers, grasp the tick as close to the skin as possible. Gently pull the tick in a steady, upward motion. Wash the area with a disinfectant. When trying to remove the tick, do not touch the tick with your bare hands, do not squeeze the body of the tick as this may increase your risk of infection. Also, do not put alcohol, nail polish remover or Vaseline on the tick or a hot match. These methods can increase the rate of Lyme Disease transmission. For much more information on Lyme Disease, visit the New York State Department of Health link on Lyme Disease at http://www.health.state. ny.us/diseases/communicable/lyme/ If you have any questions or comments on this or any other state issue, or if you would like to be added to my mailing list or receive my newsletter, please contact my office. My office can be reached by mail at 200 North Second Street, Fulton, New York 13069, by e-mail at [email protected]. ny.us or by calling (315) 598-5185.
