Page A-2

Children First Fest Theme “Go Green” The theme for this year’s Children First Fest is “Go Green.” In keeping with this theme, we have our recyclable “people” which will be an art project for children young and old. Start saving your recyclables and bring them with you and help us to “dress up” our couple. We will have a medium on the pipes in which to attach these items. We welcome names for them as well! Some other additions to the day are Jonny the Barber will be doing some funky kids haircuts, the Birds of Prey exhibit sponsored by the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce, and a representative from Cornell Coop will be showing kids how to make recycled plant pots out of newspaper. Bring some samples of your soil as there will be free soil testing! Also look for some “Minute to Win It” games on Washington St. and near the gazebo.

How on earth are we supposed to watch our waistlines when our local Chamber keeps knocking these awesome summer festivals out of the ball

park? It’s been one weekend festival after another, and the quality of each event has been top notch! But why does it seem like I’ve been eating my way through the whole season? Time to ride a little further, walk at a brisker pace and cut those dang calories whenever I can. But not this weekend – no sir. The ever-popular “Taste of Ellicottville” kicks off this weekend – Saturday, August 7th and Sunday, August 8th. Our sidewalks will be filled once again with locals and visitors alike, who’ll be enjoying the delectable treats from area restaurants while

strolling around and perusing our shops and stores. The streets will be lined with tents emanating the most scrumptious aromas, where for a modest fee you can sample many popular and exclusive repasts from our awesome eateries. I’ve heard there will be over 100 menu items to tempt the entire family. So, dear readers, hit the gym, cut the ice cream and salty snacks, do whatever you have to do – you’ll want to keep up with all the fun and food served up by the best little four-season resort in the East – Ellicottville, NY. Until next week… JZ

Before summer 2010 slips away, I wanted to remind you about one of our diocese’s best kept secrets. Tucked in the midst of Allegany State Park is Camp Turner – a resident summer camp for children, where we honor God in the children confi ded to our care. Despite our state’s budget crisis, Allegany State Park is still open, and so is Camp Turner! If you are the parent of a child aged 7-13, please consider giving Camp Turner a try this summer. (And if

you know a parent of a 7-13 year old, please forward them this message!) We have the perfect opportunity for new campers to try Camp. Session G . . . August 15-18 . . . This special session includes all of Camp’s usual activities – horseback riding, archery, arts and crafts, sports, nature walks, cookouts, campfi res and more – but for a shorter time (4 days, 3 nights) and a lower cost ($240)! Camp is good for kids – they will learn valuable life skills, build healthy friendships, and have

fun – all in a safe, Catholic environment. Visit www.campturner.com for details. Please help us offer the gift of a Camp Turner experience to as many children as possible by sharing this message with others. Scholarships available via www.friendsofcampturner.org. Camp Turner, is a Catholic Summer Camp for Boys and Girls aged 7-15, is a not-for-profi t, and is operated by the Catholic Diocese of Buffalo.

OLEAN -- Entries are still being accepted for the Olean Gus Macker Basketball Tournament. The Olean High School Sports Boosters and the Olean City School District Foundation are calling for visitors, students and community members to sign up for the August 20-22 Gus Macker three-on-three basketball tournament. Entry deadline for teams interested in this year’s tournament are Friday, August 6 for applications that are submitted by mail AND for Internet entries. To register on-line, go to www.macker.com or mail an application to Gus Macker Application, P.O. Box 70, Greenville, Mich. 48838. GOACC will be mailing many completed registration forms by the end of the day, Tuesday, August 3. Include yours by the deadline with form

and payment. No faxed application forms will be accepted. The entry fee must accompany the team application, and can be paid by check or credit card. The entry fee for four player teams is $124. The two groups anticipate having over 300 teams and 10,000 spectators from a 100-mile radius to attend the 3-day event and see this as a great opportunity to showcase Olean. The tournament will take place on Delaware Avenue and North Barry Streets in Olean, NY. The tournament, based on basketball played in driveways throughout the U.S., will include players who have no experience to those who have played college and semi-professional basketball. Primarily based on their age and level of experience, players will be placed in divisions where

they will be most evenly matched. Depending on the number of teams placed in a specific division, players and the teams they’re on will be playing for first- and second- and third trophies. Also teams that finish last in their divisions could receive “Toilet bowl” trophies. The Charter Founding Members of the Gus Macker Olean are Park Centre Development, Southern Tier Health Care System, CUTCO/Ka-Bar Visitors Center, Old Library Restaurant, and the Village Green. Organizers also are looking for volunteers to keep score, serve as referees, assist with water and food distribution, and help set up and tear down. To volunteer, or for more information, please contact David Carucci at (716) 372-9289 or Meme K. Yanetsko at 372-4433.

OLEAN-Assemblyman Joe Giglio (R,I,C-Gowanda) has expressed his frustration with the state Legislature’s inability to take any meaningful action during this week’s special session. Between the drain of taxpayer dollars and complete lack of activity, Giglio labeled this week’s meetings both an embarrassment and a failure. “This week’s special session has been an absolute disgrace,” he said. “Three men in a room with egos bigger than the state of New York have once again

Assemblyman GiglioSpecial Session is Exercise in Futility

circumvented every law governing the legislative process, accomplishing absolutely nothing but the waste of taxpayer dollars.” Gathering the Legislature in Albany has amounted to a bill of roughly $100,000 per day for taxpayers across the state. Adding insult to injury, no meaningful debate took place and no progress was made, adding to the ever-growing list of failures compiled by the Democrat majorities throughout the year. “The legislative process has devolved into the height

of absurdity,” Giglio said. “This week’s session stands as yet another embarrassment to taxpayers that are being completely failed by fl oundering legislative leaders, who are fl aunting their indifference toward their constituents for all the world to see. Dysfunction in Albany has truly hit a new low, and I fi nd the complete lack of leadership by the Democrat majorities to be absolutely shameful. New Yorkers deserve more out of their legislative leaders than the constant embarrassment that they continue to carry on with.”

OLEAN -- The Bikes are back in town! The Greater Olean Area Chamber of Commerce, JAYBRAKE, and the Greater Olean Motorcycle Enthusiasts will be hosting the Eighth Annual Rally in the Valley August 27-29 (held rain or shine) in Olean all at one location -Bradner Stadium, 550 East State Street, Olean. The three-day event is a motorcycle rally with the proceeds from the event benefi ting a host of community charities. Rally in the Valley was introduced to the area by local business leaders who saw what other communities have done with similar events. They knew the event would draw many people from outside the area. Since 2003, the event has grown: in terms of number of days held (2-3); number of dice run participants (149 - 863); number of contests (3-7); and spectators (2,500 - 8,330). FRIDAY NIGHT CONCERT

The event runs until 11 PM.

to entertain from 3 - 6 PM. Tickets are available for a chance to win a 2010 Harley Davidson Dyna Wide Glide, black with fl ames. After a year’s absence, the wide glide returns to the 2010 H-D lineup as one of four newer revised models introduced in the standard 2010 production line. The 2010 Dyna Wide Glide looks smoking’ hot in its vivid black with fl ames color combo. The pulse of the Wide Glide is provided by a 1584cc, air-cooled Twin Cam 96 engine. Tommy Gun 2-1-2 exhausts replace the dual staggered Shorty pipes of old and emit note at speed. Tickets are available for a chance to win the Dyna Wide Glide and second prize of a Krish Enclosed Two Bike Trailer. The tickets are $20 with a limit of 2,000 tickets to be sold. The drawing will be announced on Sunday, August 29. The motorcycle was partially sponsored by Larry’s Sport Center, Galeton, PA. Tickets are available to purchase before the event at the Greater Olean Area Chamber of Commerce, Poor Cow Leather, at the Taste of Olean and Gus Macker, various Rally committee members and during the Rally event. The Rally Committee is spearheaded by Dennis Jones, Randy Langdon, Larry Penman, and Dan Jordan. Mr. Jones states, “The tallies through the past seven Rally in the Valley have been very positive, in the fact that we have given more than $100,000.00 to local charities. It is a wonderful feeling to be able to give back to a community that is very supportive of our event. We have many businesses and individuals that have given much time and energy to make this one of Olean’s most successful fund raisers and an event everyone can enjoy.”

Get down and dirty next summer when the Columbia Muddy Buddy Ride rolls into town.

Founded 11 years ago, the Muddy Buddy Ride has been offering people the opportunity to once again act like kids and roll around in the mud. The Muddy Buddy Ride is a family event that involves teams of two riding in a leap-froggish way. “One teammate bikes a mile, does an obstacle and starts running. The other teammate runs a mile, does the obstacle and begins riding the bike and they switch on and off like that through the race,” said founder Bob Babbitt. “Then at the end, they wait for each other and go through the mud pit together … Because of the way it’s set up, anyone can do it because you are only running and riding three miles of each.”The obstacles range from climbing up a will and sliding down an inflatable to crawling through a pit of mud, fun huh? The ride is in cities across

the nation, mostly big cities like Miami and Chicago, but starting next June 19 it will be coming to our little corner of the world. The ride is said to be coming here for the next three years “It’s a perfect fit for Ellicottville!” said Katie DiDonato, Inn Manager and the one responsible for getting the ride to Ellicottville. “The ride will start at the Yodeler Lodge and circle around back,” DiDonato said. The route will take place on fire and access roads. Expected to bring in 1,400 competitors next year, the Muddy Buddy Ride will be a great addition to the

Ellicottville area activities. “It will be a great fit with our existing customer base,” DiDonato said. “The people that come here and ski and the people who come here for our festivals are the very same people that I think will find this event very appealing. It’s a great reason to be outdoors. You don’t have to be an elite athlete, you can just be someone who enjoys being outdoors.” Since this is a family function, the Muddy Buddy ride offers a “Mini Muddy Buddy” ride. It’s a 600-yard ride that kids participate in. They get to ride a bike, run, do an obstacle and then “go through the mud pit like mom and dad did earlier,” DiDonato said. The ride also has attached a fundraising component. Part of the proceeds

There’s a picture hanging in an archery shop on Peth Road in Great Valley, NY. In this picture, there’s a man, a bit younger than he is today, maybe a few less gray hairs and a couple less wrinkles on his brow. The shop has changed in both location and in merchandise volume. The “state of the art” equipment he’s standing by in the picture has changed even more in appearance than he has since the date it was taken. The interesting part, though, is being able to look over the counter and see him in person. Should you ever fi nd yourself standing there, staring Carl Auge in the face, take note of one thing in particular. Look at the gleam in his eye and the smile on his face as he begins to talk archery to you. Then look back at the picture. You’ll notice that look on his face hasn’t changed a bit. The fact is, when Carl Auge fi rst opened “Auge’s Archery” 19 years ago, it wasn’t about “business.” It was about a family’s love for the sport, itself, and Auge still remembers how it felt in the beginning. “It’s funny how my old shop on West State Street has grown into what it is today. The equipment keeps getting better and better. The selection keeps getting larger. Even the targets we shoot at have changed immensely. Sometimes I can’t believe this whole idea started with a couple of bows and one bag target. It’s like I blinked my eyes and the business grew just like my family did. Now my son’s stepping up to the plate and taking this business to all new heights, and he’s got a son who loves archery just as much as we do. It sure is a family tradition.” Celebrating their third year in their new location, Auge’s Archery, now owned by Carl, his son, Don, and Tammy

Auge, is an Authorized Dealer for Bowtech, Diamond Archery and Martin Archery and is also a full-service Pro-Shop, carrying everything an archer needs as a beginner or a veteran. Additionally, Auge’s Archery kicked off 2010 by adding a 3-D Pop-Up shooting range behind the shop. The range is currently set up for twelve 3-Dimensional Animal targets including deer, bears, turkeys, a wolf, a coyote, an antelope, a boar and a javelina. Most of the targets “pop-up” out of a lying down position, and two move surprisingly different, from a computer-operated air compressor that randomizes their order of appearance. A shooter has between three and seven seconds to make a shot at a scored area located where a clean kill shot could be made on actual hunting game. “It really prepares everybody for hunting,” co-owner Don Auge states, “not that you need to be a hunter to do it, but it’s actually designed to broaden an archer’s skills. It provides the shooter opportunities to shoot from several angles and distances, and also forces he or she to make shots in a limited time frame.” Auge’s wife, Tammy, also co-owner of the shop, continued on his remarks, “Binoculars and rangefi nders are both useful pieces of equipment, but this range mocks real-life conditions.

When you’re in the woods, there’s often no time for those luxuries. You’ve got to pick a spot quickly and just hit it.” The target point system is based on two rounds of 12 shots, one at each animal. Points are earned by hitting the animal as close to the center of the scoring target as possible, where the highest point totals are given. Adults shoot for a fee of $12.00 and children under 14 shoot for $6.00. The Pro-Shop is open Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 9 am to 4 pm, Thursdays from 5 to 7 pm, and Fridays and Saturdays from 9 am to 5 pm. The 3D Pop-up course is open Tuesdays from 9am to 5 pm and Wednesdaythrough Saturday from 9 amto 7 pm. Both the range andshop are open on Sundays byappointment and closed onMondays. Group reservations are welcomed at the shootingrange and can be made bycalling Auge’s Archery at 716-945-7286 or by stopping intothe shop at 6121 Peth Road, Great Valley, NY 14741. The shop and range are conveniently located less than 10 minutes driving distance from the Seneca Allegany Casino and the Village of Ellicottville. Customers may also visit and contact Auge’s Archery on their website, www.augesarchery.net. Auge’s Archery would like to welcome all IBO Shooters to the area this weekend for the love of the sport and competitive spirit.

Auge’s Archery kicked off 2010 by adding a 3-D Pop-Up shooting range behind the shop. The range is currently set up for twelve 3-Dimensional Animal targets.

from each race goes to the Challenged Athletes Foundations (CAF), which helps to fund prosthetics for those involved with sports. “Most insurance companies see sports as a ‘luxury’ but it’s not,” Babbitt said. (For those involved with sports) it’s a part of their lives.” The CAF is primarily funded through the Competitor group (known for their magazines and other sports involvements), which is the parent of the Muddy Buddy Race. To join in all the muddy fun, check out www.muddy-buddy.competitor.com or www.holidayvalley.com under special events for more information. Babbitt hopes that registration will be available in the fall. As a perk, there are chances to win prizes from the Columbia Sportswear Company.

Opinion:

Truth Or ConsequencesGeneral Understanding

BY DOUG ARROWSMITH

When, exactly, did it happen? When, after decades of trying to claw our way out of the muck, did we slide back into a morass of intolerance? When did the diseased and cursed voices of the bigots and fear mongers become the voices of reason? When did the uneducated and downright stupid begin to infl uence the nation with their warped understanding of history? Where are the voices of reason? Why aren’t we shaming these people into silence? Why aren’t we chasing them back to their backwoods hovels and swamps? The rest of the world is laughing at us, as our collective stupidity is displayed, top shelf, for all to see. I’m getting tired of our reputation as an enlightened people being tarnished by a few boozed-up crackers with microphones. It’s time to take our country back starting now! Yeah I’m fi red up. I’m fi red up because I can tolerate all sorts of stupid behavior, but as a reader, and a human, I cannot, and will not, tolerate a book burning. It’s a crime against humanity not just an insult to our nations

history. Try telling that to the fundamentalist nut jobs of The Dove World Outreach Center in Gainesville, Florida. The terrorists who belong to the Center, under the orders of Terry Jones, the leader of their Christian cult, plan on celebrating the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks next month with a mass book burning. The book in question, of course, is the Holy Quran, which will open up a whole new can of holy-roller worms. Just writing about these slimy zealots makes me sick. They’re no better than the terrorists they fear; Terrorists, who incidentally, have victimized and murdered many more of their fellow Muslims, than they have Americans. The 9/11 Quran burning is, however, only a small piece to a much larger puzzle. A puzzle that includes everything and everyone from the race baiting Glenn Beck to the immigration inspired fear mongering of the supposed “sunshine” state. How did we get here? We’re supposed to lead the way. We’re supposed to be the light at the end of the tunnel. We’re America for Gods sake. Lets at least pretend to know who we’re supposed to be and what we’re supposed to stand for. Our understanding of race and religion has always, in one form or another, torn us apart. Just as we insisted that people of color use separate entrances and drinking fountains we, at the same time, coveted our role as the worlds enlightened leader. Our double standards have always been just below the surface, occasionally boiling over into full-scale confl ict. We say, “Give us your huddled masses” but only if they’re

white, Christian Europeanhuddled masses. We defy ourfounding fathers without evenremotely trying to understandwhat they actually stoodfor. In Texas, rather thanacknowledge the fact thatThomas Jefferson was forthe separation of church andstate, the school board simplyerased his existence fromtheir textbooks. We boldlystate that we are a meltingpot of races and religions butwe burn the holy book of theworld’s largest denominationwithout a secondthought. We elect a blackpresident while accusinghim of being a racist. Wecelebrate the anniversary ofDr. King’s “I have a dream”speech by holding a TeaBagger rally at the veryspot where our Country’sracist tendencies werefi nally acknowledged. Nowthis. A book burning on theanniversary of the worst daymost of us have ever livedthrough. The fanaticsthat piloted those jets on9/11 claimed to be goodMuslims but they representedIslam about as well as thefanatics that are planningthe book burning representChristianity. Evil is evilno matter which prophet isclaimed. The good ChristianArizona suburbanites claimJesus while sending Mexicansback to the drug fueledinsanity of the border regionssay they are Americans butthey might as well be studyingthe same warped evil thatall good fanatics claim asreligion. This insanity isnot America. This insanityis not who we are. We’rebetter than this and, as theworld watches, we should beraising our voices in defenseof who we really are. We areAmerica.

My name is Erica Walker. I am 35 years old.

To the world you may be just one person, but to one person, you just may be the world. Thank you from the Western New York Kidney Connection.

I have most recently been attending Erie Community College in hopes of attaining my Registered Nursing degree. I have about another year before I complete it. However, I’ve decided to take a break from it while attending to my most recent illness. I am trying to be brave and stay healthy enough until I can receive a kidney transplant. Doctors say I’m fairly young to be diagnosed with CKD. I have been receiving dialysis treatments for about a year now. I worked at Interstate Baking Company for 10 years prior to the plant closing a few years back. They made Wonder Bread and Hostess products right here in Buffalo, NY. My boyfriend, Jim, and I have recently purchased and moved into our fi rst home. We’re very excited. Our plans are to marry and raise a family here in Cheektowaga. If you are blood type “A” and would like to be Erica’s living kidney donor, please call Jeanette Ostrom at 716-450-8958 or e-mail Erica at [email protected]

Zazoo will jazz it up at Riley’s Bar and Restaurant on Tuesday, Aug. 10 from 7:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. The four-man group is comprised of “Little” Jack Little on guitar, tubettini and fi nger symbols, Billy Thiel on the sousaphone and harp, Lewis J. Rinauldo on the gutbucket, sirens and whistles, and D. Kim “Cool” Breeze on the scrub board, harp, congas, spoons and various other instruments. Guitarist Little said the band, which has a strong comedic undertone, mostly plays show tunes, and they like to joke around with the audience during their shows. Little said that the group, which formed in the 80s, has recently started playing again after a number of years. He said that the word “zazoo” was a term used in New Orleans in the 1920s and 30s and was a synonym for jazz. Over the years as the word jazz became more popular the term zazoo fell into obscurity. Little said the band was originally named Zazoo Libation Orchestra, and that they were known as the only attack jazz band in business because of their habit of going

into a bar, playing a few songs and then leaving without any introduction or explanation. He added that the group is probably the only one to have played in the Barn Restaurant and Lounge’s loft. He further added that the band has played at the Gin Mill, and that they have opened for 27 national acts over the years at a number of upscale presentations around Western New York. Recently the band played at Ellicottville’s Americana Folk Arts & Music Fair. He said that was one of the best parts about the band not needing any sound equipment to play a venue.

Little said that the band would play one set with no breaks. He joked that the band is getting too old to stay up too late on a school night. Little said the group does practice the songs, but that the actual show is largely a “seat of the pants” performance and that once they hit the stage “all their plans go out the window.” Little said there is no cover charge to watch the bandplay, and that people should arrive early, since there are no reservations for the event. Riley’s Bar and Restaurant is located at 7734 U.S. route 219 in Ellicottville. For more information on Riley’s call 716-699-2359.

IBO ChampionshipCONTINUED FROM FRONT COVER

Holiday Valley Bow Hunters Open. If you want to try your hand at bow hunting, now’s your chance. “You don’t have to qualify. You just sign up and shoot the same course as the qualifi ers do. McFadden notes that registrations for the Championships “are up” and the vendor show opens August 11th. “We’ll have about sixty-fi ve or seventy vendors,” some of whom will appeal to other interests besides bow hunting. Then there’s the fun set for Thursday and Friday evening at Holiday Valley’s Tannenbaum Lodge, starting around 5 o’clock.“It’s the spectator side of it, we’ll have shoot offs.” Participants try to win prizes like Rolex watches, all-terrain vehicles, or “whatever they’re shooting for that night.” They will be able to enjoy a chicken barbecue and relax at the bar, and “enjoy these pros and semi-pros shooting for prizes.” Those taking part in the Championship stay for the better part of a week. McFadden says that because participants come from all over the country and the world, they “typically bring their families and make it a vacation.” People will start fi ltering in this Saturday. The pros get in

some practice time at Holiday Valley’s defense ranges, which are practice ranges. Anyone is welcome to use them. “You get prizes out there too.” The fi nal Championship rounds take place August 14th. As for lodging in Ellicottville, McFadden notes that “we’ll have it all fi lled up.” He said that Triple-A Campground in Franklinville sent the Chamber of Commerce a “wonderful e-mail” that they are sold out once again. “There won’t be many rooms left in the county.” At Holiday Valley, they’re busy getting the courses ready. Marketing Director

Jane Eshbaugh says the kids will not be forgotten, as there will be plenty of activities for children. “They’re happy while the parents are down on the courses.” And the public is welcome to check out a trade show. “They’ll have bows, targets, and anything you would need if you’re interested in bow hunting.” It’s outdoors, with various companies setting up booths. This is the third year Holiday Valley has hosted the Bow Hunters Championship. “It brings a lot of people to the area and is great for the whole area.”

Those taking part in the Championship stay for the better part of a week. says Executive Director of the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce, Brian McFadden. Because participants come from all over the country and the world, they “typically bring their families and make it a vacation.”

from 2:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Other activities that are happening from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. include a petting zoo with horse and pony rides, various art projects with the Girl Scouts, Child ID’s and a bike rodeo sponsored by the Ellicottville Sheriff’s Department, free soil testing and the making of plant pots from recycled newspaper is being done by a representative from Cornell Cooperative Extension,funky kids haircuts by Johnny the Barber, a birds of prey exhibit, a plethora of activities in front of the 1887 building sponsored by the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce, minute-to-win-it games and prizes for children under 14 and of course the recyclable pipe people. “The recyclable pipe people, a fun addition to this year’s festival, are 6-foot tall ‘people’ constructed out of PVC piping and surrounded with chicken wire. Citizens are encouraged to bring any recyclable materials, as they will be weaved through the chicken wire to help create our very own recyclable pipe people,” said Linda Moss, committee spearhead of this year’s Children’s First Festival. The recyclable pipe people, who are just PVC piping and chicken wire right now, are currently located in

the driveway of Greg Capelli on Elizabeth Street next to the church, if anyone is interested in making a drive-by to check them out! The gazebo in the park in front of the Village Hall is the central meeting place for the festival; all activities are free and no registration is required. Free sno-cones will be available, sponsored by the Ellicottville Rotary Club. The Rotary Club is also having a hot dog stand, with soda, juices and water, with all proceeds going to the Youth Foundation of Ellicottville. Moss said, “We are very excited about this year’s event. We have a lot of great things to do, and are really hoping to increase our attendance and make this a fun event for the children of the Village.” However, the Children’s First Fest isn’t the only event the Rotary Club has going on this month; on Saturday, August 28, the fourth annual tribute to Michael Kerns will be taking place at the new swimming pool complex and Cabanna Bar at Holiday Valley. The event, “Another Day in Paradise,” has a Caribbean theme, where all attendees are encouraged to wear fl ashy, summer beach and/or Caribbean-style clothing. Bill Brown, a chairperson for the event, said, “This is our

fi rst year having a Caribbean theme and for holding it in the summer. We usually have it in the fall, but really wanted to take the event outdoors and what better place to have it than at the new swimming pool complex at Holiday Valley.” Fine cocktails and gourmet hors d’oeuvres at various food stations from most of the restaurants in Ellicottville will begin at 4 p.m., as well as a steel drum band to add to the theme. Executive Chef Tom Kneeland will be representing Balloons Restaurant, along with many representatives from other kitchens in town. Tickets are a donation of $65 per person, which is a tax-deductible donation, with all money going to charitable causes for youth and the continuing operation of the Ellicottville Library Youth Center. Tickets can be purchased in singles, or in tables of 8, and can be obtained at The Barn Restaurant, or from any Rotary Club Member. “This is one of the most popular events of the year, and is always a fun night,” said Brown, “It was organized 4 years ago in memory of Michael Kerns to fi nance the youth center portion of the library construction, and has been an absolute success ever since. We can’t wait for this year’s exciting event.”

The

Brooks Patterson Comunity Leadership Award RecipientCommunity Leadership

LITTLE VALLEY - The Cattaraugus County Pl anning Board, at its July 28th Annual Dinner Meeting, presented the 2010 Brooks Patterson Community Leadership Award to Michael Hutchinson for his outstanding leadership and years of dedicated service in Community Planning and Development for the Village of Gowanda in Cattaraugus County. The meeting was held at the Seneca Allegany Casino Events Center in Salamanca, with 120 people in attendance. The recipients of this annual award are chosen to give countywide recognition to leaders and volunteers who make lasting contributions to the people and communities of Cattaraugus County and its region and who exemplify the outstanding spirit and example that Torrance Brooks and Donald Patterson set during their lifetime of dedicated service to their respective communities, County Legislature, County Planning Board, and regional agencies. Mr. Hutchinson’s service and leadership includes: 35 years

with the Village of Gowanda as Public Works Superintendent/Sewer Department Chief Operator and currently oversees all operational, planning, supervisory, and management aspects of the Village’s Water, Sewer and Highway Departments. Mike responded, oversaw and worked in partnership with a multitude of agencies and individuals to facilitate the Village of Gowanda’s recovery from the fl ood of 2009. He has, through the years, been involved in many projects in the Village of Gowanda such as the Gowanda Electronics Site Acquisition Project; the Center Street School Conversion to a Multi Use Housing and Commercial Space Facility; the Gowanda Peter Cooper Superfund Site Clean-up; the Village of Gowanda Compost Facility Expansion; the Gowanda Electronics/Townsend Street Re-construction; the Gowanda Wastewater Treatment Plant Expansion; the Route 62 Reconstruction, Walnut Storm Drainage and Union Street Rip Rap Projects and the Drying

Bed Conversion To A Sludge Compost Facility. Mike has given countless hours of Community Service to various boards and committees such as the Gowanda Area Housing Development Fund Company; Gowanda Area Redevelopment Cooperation; Village of Gowanda Tree Committee; the Village Center Revitalizing Committee, Continued Gowanda School Board, Town of Collins Water Commissioner and the West Valley Citizens Task Force. He has been a Little League baseball and Pee Wee football coach for many years and is a bass player and vocalist for The Band Archives. Mr. Hutchinson stated, upon receiving the award, that “when I look down through the projects listed I don’t see what I have accomplished, but I see all the people working together to get these projects done”. Mike then acknowledged a number of people in the audience who had worked with him through the years on the various projects. “I’m humbled and inspired,” he said. “Thank you. I really do appreciate this.”
