Downhill Thrills at the Tubing Park
Looking for a guaranteed fun outdoor experience this winter? Check out Holiday Valley Tubing Company! If you like flying down the hill in an inflatable tube without the work of lugging it back to the top, this place is for you. The Tubing Park has up to 22 lanes, including a couple group lanes for linking up with friends, that are 900 feet long and drop 100 vertical feet. Two handle tows conveniently pull you back up the hill. A special Little Tubers area is also available, weather permitting, for younger children at a cost of $5. A cozy warming hut is at the base of the hill with a snack bar, fireplace and restrooms. Or you can warm up and rest outside at the giant bonfire pit. Even more great news! If the weather continues to cooperate, the ice rink will soon make its return to the base of the hill at the tubing park. The Holiday Valley Tubing Company is located on the corner of Route 242 and Bryant Hill Road, just four miles from Holiday Valley on the north side of Ellicottville. A free shuttle service to and from Holiday Valley is available every two hours during operating hours. Pickup is at the Resort Services Center.

The Agony of deFeet Are your feet happy? Are your feet warm? Are your feet ready for another run?
Fifteen years ago this year, my sister and brother-inlaw got married at Holiday Valley. After the ceremony by the Main Lodge, there were chairlift rides to the top of Mardi Gras, followed by the reception at the then-newlyconstructed Yodeler Lodge. It was one of the first times I had ever been to the resort, and I remember thinking how beautiful it all was, and how the guests would always remember this wedding because it was so breathtaking and unique. (Seriously—how many times have you gotten to ride a chairlift at a wedding?!) Since then, trends in decor, dresses, cakes and music have come and gone, but one thing has surely stayed the same—the beauty of Ellicottville as a backdrop for one of the most special days of your life. February is the month of love. With Valentine’s Day, many couples get engaged and begin planning for their big day. The Ellicottville Times is proud to bring back our annual wedding feature for the next four weeks. During this time, we’ll cover everything from the latest wedding-related must-haves to the best places to have your wedding, rehearsal dinner, shower and bachelorette party. With so many venues offering a variety of atmospheres, cuisine and exciting activities for all your guests, Ellicottville offers a destination wedding without breaking the bank. Check out our first article on the cover, and share with all the brides-to-be you know! - Alicia Dziak, Editor, Ellicottville Times
NorAm Snowboard Races at HV Feb. 9-10
Snowboard speed specialists from the U.S., Canada, Europe and Asia will gather at Holiday Valley for one day of training and two days of racing Feb. 8-10. This will be the fifth year that Holiday Valley has hosted a NorAm event. Approximately 70 racers, ages 16 and up, are expected. In the past, there have even been some World Cup racers, the highest level of athletes, so the competition will be intense! A purse of over $1,000 will be
awarded to the winners. These are not your average freestyle snowboarders at a typical snowboard event on typical snowboard equipment! Each racer has qualified to race at the NorAm level through preliminary events. Racers go head to head down two giant slalom or slalom courses that are parallel to each other and riders focus on linking carved turns around the gates for the fastest line. The Alpine equipment is
highly specialized with longer, stiffer and narrower boards and special stiff boots that resemble ski boots. At the NorAm level, the riders are very talented and can lay over, almost parallel to the ground, while turning at a high speed. Spectators are welcome to watch the races that start at 10 a.m. on Feb. 9 and 10 from the bottom of either Yodeler or Edelweiss (exact location to be determined).
Did you answer no to any of the above? If yes, then come see one of our boot fitting experts - We can tune up your existing boots and make them much more comfortable and warm! We make boots smaller or larger... narrower or wider... softer flexing or stiffer flexing... and even easier to get into! Got a bunion? We can stretch your boot for that too. Our boot tune up can make your boots feel like new again!

Letter to the Editor
Thank you from Eric Feldbauer
Thank you to all my friends, family, work family, businesses, and volunteers who attended and donated to my benefit January 21, at the Great Valley Fire Hall. I am overwhelmed by the pure generosity each and every one of you has shown me in the past few months with your prayers and contributions. Because of you, I will be receiving stem cell treatment Feb 6, in San Diego, CA. You’ve brought this guy back to life again. If you weren’t before, you are now all officially my friends. Thank you and God bless you.

Blood Sweat and Tears Continued from front page
with Blood, Sweat & Tears, featuring American Idol runner-up Bo Bice on lead vocals, as they take the stage on Saturday, Feb. 11 at 7 p.m. Blood, Sweat & Tears, which produced such hits as “Spinning Wheel,” “You’ve Made Me So Very Happy,” and “When I Die,” was one of the first to combine jazz, rock, pop and blues to create its charttopping “jazz-rock” sound. Though the band has had no shortage of accolades over a career that spans decades, including an Album of the Year Grammy for self-titled Blood, Sweat & Tears, it also has had no shortage of band members. As many fans know, they won’t be seeing the original members, but they’ll be seeing musicians with equal amounts of talent and respect for the founding eight. Current drummer, Dylan Elise, joined the band from New Zealand after spending years performing on the streets of Wellington. After being approached by Bobby Colomby, the band’s original drummer, Elise jumped at the chance to come to Los Angeles and sit in with the band. “I saw it as a huge opportunity that I could cut it here in the States,” Elise said. Not only can Elise cut it, he and his fellow band mates play for sold out venues and packed
shows as part of a schedule that keeps them traveling around the clock. And according to Elise, the nostalgic crowds they draw make it completely worth life on the road. “Every show is packed and filled with people who grew up listening to the music, and people who are crying because it took them back to memories of high school or getting married,” said Elise of the music. “It wouldn’t have that effect on them if we didn’t do our job. We keep the old songs as they were because that’s how people want to hear them.” Though many of the band’s current fans span a variety of age groups, the music has been passed on from generation to generation. According to Band Manager of 35 years, Larry Dorr, the vast age dynamic has helped Blood, Sweat & Tears stand the test of time. “We are extremely lucky to have such a broad segment,” Dorr said. “I’ve always said this—we really have some of
the greatest fans. We are just one of the lucky bands that can work all over the world, and everyone that comes to the show has a great time.” According to Dorr, it’s the sharing of the Blood, Sweat & Tears music from one generation to the next that has helped the fan base consistently grow. It’s also the top-notch musicians that the group continues to land, and the camaraderie they have with one another, both on and off the stage. “I think what makes us survive is that we really do like each other,” said Dorr. “The audience feeds off of it. They know we are having a good time, so they have a good time. We are just an incredibly lucky band to have everything that we have. And we know it.” Tickets for the Blood, Sweat & Tears show at the Seneca Allegany Resort & Casino start at $15. For ticket information visit http:// senecaalleganycasino.com/ entertainment/.

The 13-2 ECS boys Varsity basketball team is sitting alone in 1st place at the top of Class D Section standings, and with just four games left in regular season play. March Madness is just one month away and the excitement and anticipation is growing. The 11-4 Franklinville Panthers are the only real threat to the Eagles as they sit just back in third place.

Ellicottville’s 6’5” junior No. 42 Elliot Bowen is averaging 22.4 points per game and an amazing 15.5 rebounds and 3 blocks per game. Franklinville’s 6’4” junior No. 14 Ben Erickson is averaging 23.5 points per game and 10 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game. In their previous matchup back on Jan. 4, on the Panthers’ home court, the Eagles squeaked out a one point victory 53-52 with both players, Bowen and Erickson, scoring 21 points each. Class D Boys Varsity Section VI Standings (based on total section points):

Ellicottville’s senior No. 32 Marrissa Hamilton, who normally averages 19.25 and eight rebounds per game, managed only 12 points and seven rebounds in the loss. Franklinville’s freshman No. 22 Danielle Haskell, who averages 24 points per game and two rebounds, will be the one to stop next Tuesday night. The Lady Eagles play North Collins Friday, Feb. 3 at home and with a win, will take a seven-game winning streak and lots of momentum into the Franklinville contest. The Lady Panthers from Franklinville have tons of momentum of their own, bringing in a ninegame winning streak. When these two teams collide, expect some spectacular fireworks!

Go on a ‘ClayVenture’ at Winter Break Art Camp
Parents send your elementary-aged kids on a “ClayVenture” over the February Winter Break! Ardyth Van Scoy, Education Coordinator at the Cattaraugus County Arts Council (CCAC), has developed several clay projects for each of the annual Winter Break Kids Art Camps being held Monday, Feb. 20 through Friday, Feb. 24. Signup today by telephone at (716) 372-7455 or online at www. myartscouncil.net. The weeklong camp is $65 per child, and includes all project supplies. The classes are held at the CCAC studio, 100 West Main Street, Allegany, New York. Kids will have fun exploring their creativity and learning new skills in small groups with individualized attention. New artists (ages 4-7 years) can join ClayVenture Monday through Friday from 9-10 a.m. Designed for budding artists, this week kids will get creative and even a little messy with clay. They will spend the first three days creating a garden bell, a decorative bird bath complete with little bird, and a set of garden buddies. The final days will be spent giving their creations a touch of color with
a hanging planter. Each student will then give their creations life with colorful glazes. All projects will be available for pick up two weeks after the class concludes. Art Camp classes will be taught by Ardyth VanScoy, a Fine Arts graduate of St. Bonaventure. Ms. Van Scoy is also active in local theater groups both onstage as a performer and off stage creating scenery and costumes.

and then again on Wednesday, Feb. 8 against last place Saint Louis University. The Bonnies are currently in 5th place. The Lady Bonnies split games last week winning against Davidson, home of Steph Curry, 70-51 but then losing to Saint Joseph’s 53-70. Against Davidson, Randolph native Mckenna Maycock had 13 points and six rebounds and against Saint Joseph’s, she contributed 14 points, two good personal performances for Maycock. The ladies play at home on Tuesday, Feb. 7 at 7 p.m. against 5th place La Salle. The Bonnies are 9-13 overall and 4-6 in conference play and sit in 11th place. Player development tip of the week focuses on diet to get the highest level of performance out of your body come game time. Start the night before a game and load up with carbohydrates. Spaghetti and meatballs is a traditional day before a game meal that gets your body fueled up and ready; carbohydrates kick in 12-24 hours after consumption. The day of a game, focus on protein or consuming an easily digestible meal 3-4 hours before the actual game time. The traditional meal of steak and baked potatoes works, but salads topped with grilled chicken are great as well. Stay away from fried food, breads and sweets before games, as they will just slow you down.

FLITE Team Competes in Killington
This past weekend (Jan. 28 and 29) the FLITE Team “A SQUAD” took to the Killington Klassic at Highlinewhere a pair of our athletes will be skiing again in 2 weeks at their first NorAm. On Saturday Lexi Crotty picked up where she left off two weeks ago in Lake Placid, claiming the Top Spot on the ladies side- skiing with conviction down the mogul field. The men were led by Wyatt Antkiewicz, who finished in 8th place, followed by Lucas Goodin, who had a great day on the course, finishing in 17th place. Sunday Funday brought Duals into the fold. Wyatt Antkiewicz withdrew from the competition to rest a sore knee. Lucas Goodin came into duals the No. 16 seed, and led off the day with the 3rd Dual,
which he won by virtue of the other competitor scratch. Lucas then won his second dual 19-6 to advance him into the round of 16. Lucas went against the No. 1 seed from Saturday and lost that dual 19-6. He ended his day in the round of 16. Lexi Crotty came in to duals the No. 1 seed, which earned her a 1st round bye. Her first dual she won 21-4. Lexi then

work with. The Champagne Sundeck, located just outside Yodeler Lodge, is a gorgeous outdoor patio offering couples two unique options for an onsite ceremony: in front of the natural flowing waterfall or under the pavilion in front of a stone fireplace. This location is reserved for couples having their reception at the Yodeler Lodge. The Tamarack Green overlooking the golf course or the Resort Services Deck with the Mardi Gras lift in the background are the on-site ceremony locations reserved for couples having their reception at the Holiday Valley Lodge. The ceremony space at Tannenbaum Lodge is the smallest venue, seating a maximum of 120 guests for the
indoor ceremony. In Mueller’s words, “This location is perfect for an intimate wedding of 50 to 120 guests.” Finally, a hilltop ceremony is also offered as an option to all couples. Those choosing this option can ride the Mardi Gras or Yodeler chairlift to the top of the hill and be married with a gorgeous view overlooking the valley. The hill-top location can accommodate up to 270 guests for a ceremony. Following the ceremony, Holiday Valley offers reception space at all three of its beautiful lodges. The second floor of the Holiday Valley Lodge can accommodate 80-280 guests, Yodeler Lodge can hold 150230 guests and Tannenbaum Lodge can accommodate 50150 guests. Mueller explained,
“Outdoor ceremonies can be accommodated May through November, believe it or not! Many couples that envision a ‘winter wedding’ will opt for a mid-November wedding and choose the Champagne Sundeck as the location for their ceremony. The sundeck offers a cozy fireplace as the backdrop and we can always bring in umbrella heaters to add some extra warmth for guests. Outdoor receptions can be accommodate in the summer months, June through early September.” Whether you’re planning a buffet or traditional plated meal for your guests, HV’s on-site catering service, Centerplate, will not disappoint. Mueller said, “One of our most popular dishes this year is an intermezzo course, perfect served as the second course on a plated meal, following the soup and/or salad. At Holiday Valley, our Chef pairs a Blood Orange Sorbet with a brie crostini, creating the perfect pallet cleanser before the main course. Not only is the flavor is amazing, but the presentation makes quite the impression on guests!” For more information about planning your wedding at HV, contact Katelyn Mueller at (716) 699-3968 or kmueller@ holidayvalley.com. HoliMont members and non-members alike can choose to have their ceremony amidst the tranquil hills of the resort inside the chalet lodge, outside the lodge in front of the slopes or on top of the hill via a chairlift ride. After the ceremony, the couple can work with
HoliMont’s staff to create a dream reception inside and outside the beautiful chalet, which can accommodate weddings with up to 350 guests.

Red House Dam Renovation Project
A comprehensive rehabilitation project of the Red House Dam will commence during the summer of 2017. The project will require a partial draw down of Red House Lake, which may occur as early as July 5, depending on the contractor’s work schedule. Partial draw down of Red House Lake will impact swimming, boating and other recreational activities on the
lake. The bridge and roadway over the dam will also be closed to traffic once the project ramps up. The Quaker Lake swimming area and concession operations will be expanded to accommodate park patrons. We thank you for your patience while these important safety and recreation improvements are being made. Check Allegany State Park Facebook page for more

“The Girl from Venice” by Martin Cruz Smith
The Girl from Venice is a thriller, a mystery, and a retelling of Italian history that will take your breath away. Most of all it is a love story. One night, under a canopy of stars, a fisherman named Cenzo comes across a young woman’s body floating in the lagoon and soon discovers that she is still alive and in trouble. Born to a wealthy Jewish family, Giulia is on the run from the Wehrmacht SS. Cenzo chooses to protect Giulia rather than hand her over to the Nazis. This act of kindness leads them into the world of Partisans, random executions, the arts of forgery and high explosives, Mussolini’s broken promises, the black market and gold, and, everywhere, the enigmatic maze of the Venice Lagoon. This book is currently available in book format only at the Ellicottville Memorial Library. It is also available as a large print book using our interlibrary loan program. Don’t forget, you can access over 15,100 eBooks and eAudiobooks using your library card!

Crystal Abers, Director of the Department, explains, “We have mapped out the trails that we are aware of, but seek assistance in locating other trails that perhaps are not as well known. As we look to connect the existing trails, we also want to examine possible new trail locations to develop

Health & Fitness - Knees
By Kim Duke, NETA & AAFA Certified Trainer
Recently, a friend of mine asked me to put together a list of leg exercises that he could do with bad knees. This friend is an avid skier and cyclist and is only in his 30s, but as he says, “has the knees of an 80 year old.” So, I put together a list and thought it would be a good idea to share this with others. Many of my clients have bad knees. How they ended up with bad knees varies from overuse to excessive weight gain or even trauma due to an injury. But, once your knee or knees are shot, what can you do? Many folks worry that working your legs will only cause your knees to hurt more. Not true, says Willibald Nagler, MD chairman of rehabilitation medicine at the New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center in New York City. “Exercise may be the best medicine for chronic achy knees. Strengthening the muscles around the joint protects you from injury by decreasing stress on the knee.” But you must use good form and technique when doing exercises for knee pain. The First Commandment Be sure to never bend your
legs to a point where your knees stick out past your toes. That puts a lot of pressure under the kneecap. This not only applies to the following exercises for knee pain but also when you’re stretching or doing aerobic activities The following are the best exercises to do: Partial Squats Stand about 12 inches away from the front of a chair with your feet about hip width apart and your toes forward. Bending at the hips, slowly lower yourself halfway down to the chair. Keep your abs tight, and check that your knees stay behind your toes. Step-ups Using an aerobic step bench or a staircase, step up onto the step with your right foot. Tap your left foot on the top of the step, and then lower. As you step up, your knee should be directly over your ankle. Repeat with your left foot. Side-Lying Leg Lifts Wearing ankle weights above the knee, lie on your left side, legs straight and together, with your left arm supporting your head. Keeping your right foot flexed and your body straight, slowly lift your right leg to about shoulder height, then slowly lower. Repeat with your left leg. Inner-Thigh Leg Lifts Wearing ankle weights above the knee, lie on your left side, slightly back on your butt. Bend your right leg and place it behind your left leg with your right foot flat on the floor and your left leg straight. Support your head with your left arm. Slowly lift your left leg about 3 to 5 inches, then lower. Repeat with your right leg. Calf Raises Using a chair or wall for balance, stand with your feet
about hip width apart, and toes straight ahead. Slowly lift your heels off the floor, rising up onto your toes. Hold, and then slowly lower. Straight-Leg Raises Sit with your back against a wall, left leg straight and right leg bent with your foot flat on the floor. Slowly raise your left leg straight up about 12 inches off the floor. Hold, and then slowly lower. Repeat with your right leg. Short-Arc Knee Extensions In the same starting position as the straight-leg raises, put a ball (about the size of a basketball) under your left knee so that your leg is bent. Slowly straighten your leg. Hold, and then slowly lower. Repeat with your right leg. Hamstring Stretch Lie on your back with your left leg flat on the floor. Loop a towel or rope around your right foot and pull your leg as far as comfortable toward your chest, while keeping a slight bend at the knee. Keep your back pressed to the floor throughout the stretch. Hold for 10 to 30 seconds and then release. Repeat three or four times with each leg. Do this stretch five or six times a week. And lastly, here are some of the worst exercises—avoid these! A few of the following exercises can be done safely if you have chronic knee problems - they’re on this list because they’re more likely to be done improperly. The exercises above are safer, while still giving you similar results. • Full-arc knee extensions • Lunges • Deep squats • Hurdler’s stretches
Bonas Welcome Earth Science Teacher, NASA Educational Fellow as Leader in Residence
Jane Robinson Gilbride, a proud native of Buffalo and longtime earth science teacher, will be St. Bonaventure University’s fourth guest speaker in the annual Building Extraordinary Leaders series. The yearly program brings industry and community frontrunners to campus and highlights diverse perspectives as part of the five-year series, which is funded by a gift from the university’s Class of 1963. The university will welcome Gilbride, an SBU physical education graduate from the Class of 1980, to campus Feb. 9 and 10 as the 2017 Leader in Residence. For more than 30 years, Gilbride has been a highly effective earth science teacher and a dedicated member of the Business First award-winning Starpoint High School Science Department in Lockport. Gilbride has served as her science department’s content area specialist. During her career, Gilbride has provided numerous first-year teachers and student teachers with mentoring and supervising. In addition, she has served as an adjunct lecturer in the Earth Science and Science Education department at the State University of New York College at Buffalo. Recently retired from secondary education, Gilbride is working as an educational consultant and writing science-based children’s books. The public is invited to attend a Feb. 9 presentation by Gilbride at 2:30 p.m. in the auditorium of the William F. Walsh Science Center on
campus. The title of her talk is “Where Passion, Purpose and Opportunity Meet.” “At a time when the need for improved STEM education is making headlines, it is particularly fitting that this year’s Leader in Residence is a STEM educator,” said Dr. Nancy Casey, dean of the School of Education. “Ms. Gilbride’s passion will inspire SBU students to embrace leadership roles in education, certainly, but more broadly as leaders who inspire others to follow their passions.” One of Gilbride’s proudest professional achievements was collaboration with the late Nobel Laureate Dr. Herbert Hauptman, who received the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1986. Gilbride and Hauptman designed the Hauptman Crystal Sculpture Garden in the Starpoint High School Math and Science Courtyard. In addition, Gilbride was able to build on this relationship and establish a learning partnership between her high school and Hauptman and the Hauptman Woodward Research Institute located on the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus. Following a competitive national search, Gilbride was selected as an educational fellow to NASA’s mission to Mercury, MESSENGER. As a NASA fellow and a member of the National Center for Earth and Space Science Education team, Gilbride’s mission was to train educators, promote space exploration and connect educational standards to exciting space
innovations via STEMbased learning modules. The 11-year-long MESSENGER mission was the first orbital mission around Mercury and designed to investigate scientific questions about the planet’s characteristics and environment. A central focus of Gilbride’s educational career has been the development and procurement of grants for creative curriculum initiative projects. She has written and received numerous educational grants and DonorsChoose funding for various curriculum initiatives, including her personal favorites “In Search Of Slope and Gradient,” “Geology and Architecture” and “The Great School Supplies Surprise.” She was awarded the American Chemical Society of Western New York Distinguished High School Science Teacher of the Year Award. Gilbride was also selected by the Buffalo Bills and M&T Bank for their Touchdown for Teachers program honoring local teachers for outstanding service to their schools and communities. An enthusiastic supporter of all things Bonaventure and Franciscan values, she enjoys the beauty of the Enchanted Mountains and avidly skis them. In addition to her bachelor’s degree from St. Bonaventure, Gilbride received a Master of Secondary Education in earth science at Buffalo State. During her time at St. Bonaventure, Gilbride was on the first women’s rugby team, was active in the Ski Club and intramurals, and worked as a resident assistant. Gilbride is married to St. Bonaventure graduate Terry Gilbride, who graduated in 1985 with a bachelor’s degree in philosophy. They have three children, Mary, Maggie and Connor, and a granddaughter, Penelope.

Knitting for Charities Continued from front page
variety of knitting charities that can benefit from your skills, and there’s no better time to get started than now! It’s February, American Heart Month, and in honor of heart health and awareness, the American Heart Association invites you to take part in their Little Hats, Big Hearts campaign. Knitters and crocheters are encouraged to knit newborn and preemie hats to be distributed to hospitals nationwide during the month of February to raise awareness about heart disease and congenital heart defects, and empower new moms to live heart healthy lives and to help their children do the same. Little Hats, Big Hearts started in February 2014 in Chicago, when 300 hats were collected that first year. Now, the program has grown to include hospitals in 40 states, including New York. Knitters and crocheters can use their own patterns for baby hats; however, the campaign also has free patterns available to download on their website http://www. h e a r t . o r g / H E A RT O R G / General/Little-Hats-BigHearts_UCM_487734_ SubHomePage.jsp. For the comfort and safety of the newborns, hats should be made with red worsted or heavy worsted cotton or acrylic yarns that are machine washable and dryable and are not embellished with any buttons or bows. Donations of yarn are also accepted. Hats made in the Western New York region can be sent to Rochester, NY. Email Alexis Zimmerman at alexis.zimmerman@heart.org or Colleen Benger at colleen. benger@heart.org to learn more! Your knitting can have an international impact when you join the Knitting4Peace

community, a grass roots organization started in 2006 dedicated to providing hope, healing, and peace one stitch at a time. Since 2006, Knitting4Peace has delivered requested items to almost 105,000 people living in communities across the United States and 69 countries around the world. Items include scarves, hats, mittens/gloves, baby blankets, Peace Pals (knitted boy and girl dolls), Birthing Kits (baby cap, baby Peace Pal, washcloth), winter socks, quilted sleeping mats for AIDS orphans and more. Knitters, crocheters, and quilters can create on their own and send items to Knitting4Peace, 2600 Leyden St., Denver, CO 80207. They can also join “Peace Pods,” which are local groups of crafters who get together and make items together on a regular basis. In Cattaraugus County, knitters and crocheters can join the Olean Peace Pod by contacting Cookie Lindamer at dclindamer@roadrunner. com. To start your own Peace Pod or get links to the patterns used for Peace Pals, Peace Shawls, Blankets of Peace and Winter Gloves, visit www. knitting4peace.org. Yarn for Ewe in Randolph, NY collects knitted and crocheted preemie and newborn
hats and booties year ‘round to donate to the maternity centers of UPMC Chautauqua WCA and Olean General Hospital so that every baby goes home with something nice and warm made by a local crafter! In September and October, Yarn for Ewe collected over 100 hats for November and December babies, and are continuing to collect them throughout the winter. If you’d like to participate or would like Yarn for Ewe’s free knitted newborn hat pattern, call (716)267-2070 or visit them at 129 Main Street in Randolph. There are many ways to keep your knitting and crochet local, too! Consider starting a hat/mitten tree at your church or community group, which is especially important this time of year. Area hospitals that provide cancer treatment services can benefit from knitted or crocheted lap robes, soft chemo caps, and “knitted knockers,” which are special handmade breast prosthesis for women who have undergone mastectomies or other procedures. Free patterns are available at www. chemocaps.com and www. knittedknockers.org. Visit https://www.allfreeknitting. com/knitting-for-charity for more ideas and organizations that can give your knitting or crochet a powerful impact!

A LOOK BACK:
New Home for The Barbershop Soli Deo Gloria
St. Aloysius Parish By Derek M. Otto
By Alicia Dziak
Do you or the man in your life need a good old fashioned hair cut from one of the best in the business? A visit with Springville’s own JP Nabozny will not disappoint. Nabozny opened his shop, The Barbershop Soli Deo Gloria, in the 56 East Main Street building in September 2013. While he wasn’t actively looking to move, he said that a customer suggested he look into the former Root 39 Salon building, located just up the road at 271 West Main Street. Nabozny reached out to the building’s owner, Angie Shaver, and they were able to come up with a rental agreement. Since the building was formerly a salon, much of the “shell” remained the same. The layout was already open, but Nabozny had a friend construct two new barber stations (which means he’ll soon be looking to hire a second barber!) and a reception desk where he will cash out customers. He added fresh paint and put his own twist on the space by adding his sports memorabilia and TVs. “I wanted it to look like a man cave and not like a salon,” Nabozny added. The barbershop will also feature a coffee bar area
The 1879 St. Aloysius Church about 1910. The house to its right was moved back in 1953 to make room for the new church. The 1904 school building is on the far right. In 1948 an addition was made to the back of the school to help overcrowding. Note the stables to the old Springville Hotel in the background. In addition to the properties on Franklin Street. The parish also owns the former Tanner house on Main Street that was used initially as a parsonage. Today it is home to the sisters that served the Parish and St. Aloysius.
This week, we are discussing whether or not the groundhog saw his shadow. I find it interesting that the roots of our animal prediction are something that was brought here by our German ancestors. Believe it or not, the groundhog tradition started with the Candlemas services held on Feb. 2. Parish priests would bless the candles used for the rest of winter. It also marked the period when hedgehogs in Germany would be leaving their dens in the midwinter. An old German poem says: For as the sun shines on Candlemas Day, so far will the snow swirl until May, for as the snow blows on Candlemas Day, so far will sunshine before May. It didn’t take much to combine the two and if the hedgehog saw its shadow, the last six weeks of winter would be determined. In the early days of the republic, most of the German population was centered in Pennsylvania. The woodchuck would replace the hedgehog in See A Look Back page 7

in the newly opened-up kitchen space. The building’s second floor boasts three additional rooms, and Nabozny envisions a tattoo shop eventually taking over up there. Nabozny, an SGI graduate, got his start in cutting hair while he was still in high school. “My mom used to cut my hair and my brother’s hair herself to save a buck. My brother and I soon decided that we would just cut each other’s hair. It couldn’t have been any worse than what my mom did!” he joked. Soon, Nabozny started cutting his own hair and using the school’s locker room to cut his friends’ hair. Nabozny was running short on credits (for graduation) and his counselor suggested he attend the cosmetology program at the Ormsby Center. He took his counselor’s advice, attended the program, finished up at Potter Road, graduated on time (in 2002) and the rest is history. “I found my identity in cutting hair,” Nabozny noted. From there, “I was really fortunate to work with some old timers who taught me a lot,” Nabozny said, adding that when he was 26 years old working in one local “old time” barbershop with seven other barbers, the next youngest barber was 62, with the others being in their 70s and 80s. For those who aren’t familiar with Latin, the name “Soli Deo
Gloria” means “Glory to God Alone.” “I struggled with addiction and had to close my first barbershop (in Springville) because of it,” Nabozny explained. “I went to a faithbased rehab program that changed my life.” A close friend helped him open his new shop and he named it “Soli Deo Gloria” to “try to remember where I was and how I got out of there,” Nabozny said. Nabozny wanted to stay in Springville for many reasons. “This is where my roots are, where my family and friends are,” he said. “Springville was also in need of an old school barbershop.” Nabozny further expained that “old school” means a place geared toward men that offers shaves. Nabozny’s business quickly took off, and anyone who gets their hair cut or knows
someone who gets their hair cut by Nabozny, knows he has a loyal following. “One of the most important things I’ve learned is to be consistent haircut after haircut,” Nabozny said. To him, this means taking his time, every time. “I put 100 percent into every haircut,” he emphasized. “I won’t rush, even if people are waiting, and people don’t mind waiting because they know I’ll do the same for them.” Nabozny is definitely a “people-person”— outgoing and welcoming. “I love my job, I love meeting all kinds of people, and I think my haircuts reflect that,” he said. The Barbershop Soli Deo Gloria, at 271 West Main Street, is open for business as of this week. Hours are Tuesday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The shop is closed Sunday and Monday. For more info, call 794-3140 or visit their Facebook page.

Over the years, my family has accumulated stuff. Lots and lots of stuff. For years, as my kids have outgrown things, I’ve saved them. “Aw, I love this dress! I’m saving it for my granddaughter some day.” “Can’t get rid of this! It was the coat Lily wore when she learned how to ski!” The list goes on and on. The reality of it is that, with the exception of a few very special toys or articles of clothing, I had to ask myself this: If I even have a granddaughter, is she really going to want to wear this old ski jacket from 20 years ago? Unless 2010 retro is somehow in vogue at that time , my guess is no. And so began the challenge of cleaning out years of stuff. Jackets, snow pants, TVs, miscellaneous furniture and decor. My usual course of action would be to pack it into boxes and drop it off at a donation center. Instead, I decided to post pictures of all this giveaway stuff in the local “Buy Nothing” group on Facebook. Within days, I had given away several items to several different people—some who I knew and some who I didn’t. Sure, it took a little more work than it would have to just donate a box of goods, but it was also very cool to hear people’s stories of what they’d use the items for and know that my old stuff was somehow helping out my neighbors. This is not the first time I’ve given items within this group, and I’ve also been lucky enough to be on the receiving end. Every day, new items are posted. I applaud the efforts of the wonderful people who started and monitor this local Buy Nothing group. I can imagine it can be time-consuming, but know your efforts don’t go unnoticed. And thank you to everyone who continues to offer up such a variety of great items to your neighbors and friends. I’m happy to be a part of a community where people give so freely. - Alicia Dziak, Editor, Springville Times

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT
rSpace Offers Yoga, Cardio and Juices for Healthy Living
By Elizabeth Riggs
“If you build it, they will come.” The Field of Dreams mantra couldn’t be more true for Colden’s hip new yoga and wellness studio, rSpace, and the experience has been nothing less than a dream for owner Jessica Raymond. Officially opening its doors in October of 2016, rSpace, located at 8823 State Road in Colden, offers a full gamut of yoga and high-intensity cardio classes, fresh-pressed juices, Young Living essential oils, workshops, healthy meals and more. Originally a Lancaster native, Raymond has lived in Glenwood with her husband for the past 13 years. And as cliché as it may sound, the opening of rSpace just kind of happened. “I was going for my yoga certification online because I was pregnant with my third child, and I was required to film myself. We did a donation class in the building because it was vacant at that point,” said Raymond, who was good friends with the previous building owner. The donation class began with yoga, essential oils and juices, and turned into $350 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. But the efforts didn’t stop there. The success of the first event led Raymond to schedule three more donation classes, which in turn gathered supplies for a Haitian mission group, and Christmas presents and food for a local family in need. After such a profound response to her donation events, Raymond knew that she was on to something. “We thought, ‘Holy cow! The community is very receptive to this, why don’t we look into buying the building?’” she said. So she did. Previously Sliders Snowboard Shop, Raymond and her husband purchased the building in June 2016, and enlisted the help of family and friends to remodel before opening the doors of rSpace in October 2016. According to Raymond, the name rSpace is a play on words and a tribute to the struggle she and her husband had to name the building. But it also perfectly describes the vision she had for the new studio and what she hoped it would be for those who came to it. “This is a space for the community, where people can come and be heard, where people can be comfortable exploring themselves and finding their best self,” said Raymond. “It’s a space

dedicated for everybody to feel at home.” So far customers seem to feel very at home, as class sizes for the full range of yoga and high-intensity cardio classes grow steadily from month to month. Yoga classes range from standard vinyasa and hatha yoga courses, to a restorative yin yoga class, which incorporates aromatherapy. Kid’s yoga courses, offered once a month, are a customer favorite. The studio is also one of few in the Buffalo area to offer more cutting edge classes like shadow yoga and aerial yoga, which will be coming in February. “Shadow Yoga is used a lot of times for PTSD and trauma patients because it is set in a completely dark setting, minus candle light,” said Raymond. “The music is a little bit more heavy, with deeper undertones, which is supposed to help concentrate the mind a little bit better.” In addition to yoga, rSpace also offers a variety of cardio and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) classes, like Zumba – a popular dance class incorporating dance moves from around the world; Pound – an upbeat cardio workout with lightly-weighted drumsticks; kettle bell conditioning – an intense full body and weight workout; PiYo – a workout combining yoga and pilates; and Intensity – a 30-minute high cardio class.
For the full healthy living experience, the rSpace also offers 15 different flavors of fresh-pressed fruit and vegetable juices and cleanses, as well as Bootleg Bucha products, from Buffalo’s first kombucha brewery. The juice bar features a double-faucet kegerator with two fresh juices on tap at all times. And, if fitness classes and fresh juices don’t pack enough of a healthy-living punch, rSpace has also recently partnered with Buffalo’s Best Grill to become a delivery location for their line of premade meals. “Normally you would have to pick up [the meals] in Blasdell or live within delivery range,” said Raymond of the service. “Now, people nearby can order on the web site just like everyone else. For $5, you get a wonderful meal and it’s healthy.” A distributor of Young Living essential oils, rSpace also hosts monthly Make and Take classes where people can learn the properties of the oils, uses and applications, and make a few products to take home. So, with all that the studio has to offer, it seems likely that rSpace will continue to grow in both size and popularity. But just in case anyone is still leery to stop in and try a new class or juice, Raymond’s advice couldn’t be more simple. “Just do it. The hardest part is walking through the front door,” she said. “The best thing people leave here with is the smile on their face because they really felt at home. I think that’s what brings people back through the door the most.” For more information about rSpace, a full calendar of classes, pricing, or memberships, visit their website at www.r-spacestudio. com.

Leading the way for SGI was sophomore guard No. 5 Mason Goodridge with 18 points. Junior No. 3 Tyler Kostelny contributed 12 points all from long range, sinking four three-point field goals. Goodridge leads the team in scoring, averaging 17.4 points per game followed by senior No. 23 Marcus James, averaging 14.4 points per game. James also leads the team in rebounding with 4.3 per game. James had seven points against the Indians. Springville started off strong and led each quarter 15-9, 1713, 20-16 and 13-10. This past week, the Griffs played two additional games, both at home against 3-11 13th place Class B2 Eden and 10-3 3rd place Class B2 Lackawanna. Their next home game is on Friday, Feb. 10 against 4-11 9th place Alden, followed by their final home game and final game of the regular season against 4-8 9th place Class B2 JFK on Tuesday, Feb. 14. In local NCAA college basketball, Division III 5th

Girls’ Varsity Basketball, Coach Bob Gainey The varsity girls basketball team dropped a road league contest against Holland last week by a score of 42-25. The girls played outstanding defense, but gave up some baskets in transition and the Lady Dutchmen hit some big threes to keep a comfortable lead throughout. Despite the result, the team showed great energy and effort throughout the game. Lexi Sopko set the tone with her incredible hustle, rebounding and defense. Carrie Dickinson and Ivette Lewandowski played strong in the backcourt, especially with the press. Ryan Stedman provided a nice spark off the bench with her hustle and defense. Despite the result, the girls have a chance to string along some wins with the schedule in front of them. Varsity Boys Swimming and Diving, Coach Duane Boberg, Assistant Coach Ryan Dygert For the final meet of the season, the Boys Varsity Griffins hosted the Saint Francis High School Swim Team. With it being the final meet, the Griffins also had the opportunity to honor their three seniors: Bret DeFrain, Kurt Uschold, and Nolan West. All three seniors were able to perform swims of their choice, while still working towards a Griffins victory with a final score of 58-43. For nearly half the team, this was their final meet of the season as they were unable to achieve a qualifying time or score for the swimming and diving postseason. Many of the athletes were extremely close to qualifying and this only bodes well for the future as we look ahead to what we have next year without these three outstanding seniors. Congratulations to all, but especially to Bret, Kurt and Nolan for the hard work and dedication that they have put into this team. Meet Highlights: Nolan West broke a 20-year-old pool record in the 100 Freestyle with a time of 49.10 while also taking first in the event.

Nolan was also a part of the winning 200 Medley A Relay, and also took 2nd place in the 100 Backstroke nearly breaking his own school record as well. Kurt Uschold was also on the 200 Medley A Relay with Nolan taking first. Kurt was also involved in the winning 200 Freestyle A Relay, along with taking 2nd place in his chosen events of the 100 Fly, and the 200 IM. The latter in which he qualified for a Class meet time. Bret chose to finish his dual meet career in style by embarking on the two distance freestyle events. Typically, a sprinter, Bret was able to take 3rd place in the 200 Freestyle and 4th in the 500 Freestyle. Elliot Emley took 2nd place in the 100 Freestyle behind Nolan, while also winning the 50 freestyle. Elliot also contributed to the first place 200 Freestyle A Relay and the 2nd place 400 Freestyle A Relay. Jon Boberg was a part of the winning 200 Medley A Relay, along with the winning 200 Freestyle A Relay. Individually, Jon won the 100 Breaststroke in a close race while also taking 3rd in the 100 Fly. Wyatt Fuller was able to finish off an undefeated season on the board with his 9th first place finish in 9 meets.

Albright Knox Art Gallery Offers Free Admission Feb. 3
By Mary Heyl
An enjoyable day of culture and imagination doesn’t have to be an expensive, far-away outing when you visit the Albright-Knox Art Gallery on the first Friday of every month! From 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., admission to part of the museum and select events are free for everyone, thanks to M&T Bank sponsored “First Fridays.” This is a great time to explore one of the oldest art galleries in the United States, and there’s still time to see the museum’s featured exhibit, “Picasso: The Artist and His Models,” on display through Feb. 19. Founded in 1862 as the Buffalo Fine Arts Academy, the Albright-Knox Art Gallery is the sixth oldest public art institution in the country. At their first meeting in 1862, the academy’s founders agreed that a permanent home for the gallery needed to be established as soon as possible. The collection was housed in several temporary locations until John J. Albright donated the funds to build its permanent home at the turn of the 20th century. Architect Edward B. Green designed the museum’s stately Greek revival building with its iconic columns near Delaware Park, and the museum was named the Albright Art Gallery in 1905. The museum’s growing collection required more space, and in 1962 Seymour H. Knox, Jr. donated the funds for a new wing. This modern-style wing was completed in 1962 and the museum was renamed the Albright-Knox Art Gallery. Since then, the gallery has not added any exhibition space to the building, although the museum’s collection has grown substantially since, acquiring over 5,000 artworks. Last year, the museum selected the architectural firm OMA to expand its campus—a muchanticipated addition to this beloved gallery! So what can you and your family expect from a day at the
AK? As part of the First Fridays activities, on Friday, Feb. 3, the AK will host a free Family Fun Tour from 11 to 11:45 a.m. to show families the works in the 1962 building. Also on Friday, the museum offers a free dropin art activity for artists of all ages inspired by the museum’s current exhibits. On the first Wednesday and the first Saturday of each month, the AK offers an Art Baby Stroller Tour, which is free with museum admission. This half hour tour offers parents, guardians, and caregivers the chance to learn about works of art on display in the museum while their young children (ages 0-24 months) to engage with the works by experiencing the colors, shapes, and tonal contrasts. In addition to encouraging young children to explore the sights of the museum, this tour also provides ideas for how to further engage children with works of art. The museum’s three current exhibits are free to explore as part of M&T’s First Fridays. Visitors can expect to explore several different mediums, as art is not confined to paper and paint. Visitors can explore the sculptures of Matt Hoyt, whose exhibit of over 100 objects has been six years in the making. “Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One: Humor and Satire from the Collection” is a unique exhibit comprised of different artists’ work in the AK’s collection.

facebook.com/springvilletimes BCH Enhances X-Ray Technology
Digital Radiography Equipment Installed in Imaging Department
Bertrand Chaffee Hospital made a significant investment in its Imaging Department at the end of 2016. The facility remodeled one of the radiographic (“x-ray”) rooms and installed a new digital radiography (DR) machine.
This equipment represents the leading technology in an effort to lower patient dose while capturing high image quality and detail. DR images show finer detail that will help in the diagnosing of injuries and medical conditions. This new technology will assist in the treatment that patients receive from emergency medicine providers, orthopedists, surgeons, physical therapists and other specialists. “The images we take with this machine show incredible detail,” said Lisa Smith, imaging department manager. “We can use lower doses of radiation to produce images, and they’re available immediately with no waiting.” “Our shift to digital radiography also factored in the room design,” Smith continued. “The table helps us comply with the Safe Patient Handling Act, with the height
adjusting from one-and-a-half to three feet,” Smith continued. “That makes the process of getting an x-ray much more comfortable and safer for patients.” Bertrand Chaffee Hospital continues to make investments in its clinical technologies. “To have this available for emergency, inpatient and outpatient use means that patients do not have to travel out of the area to receive standard of care for imaging services,” said CEO Nils Gunnersen. “That’s a strong consideration, especially when a patient is dealing with pain or discomfort.” For more information about the Imaging Department at BCH, call (716) 592-8169. The hospital also offers digital mammography, nuclear medicine, ultrasound, MRI, CT and bone density testing.

Lincoln Exhibit on Display
at Hulbert Library in February
For the month of February, the Hulbert Library in Springville will become the “Land of Lincoln” with a display honoring our 16th President. The display, organized by the Echoes Through Time Civil War Learning Center, pays tribute to Abraham Lincoln, whose birthday was Feb. 12. The public is invited to come and visit the display, which includes a bust of Lincoln, a replica Civil War drum, bullets and a cannonball used during the Civil War and various other relics. Also included is a replica of the Deringer gun John Wilkes Booth used in Lincoln’s assassination in 1865. “We are hoping to give the public the opportunity to learn more about Lincoln and the Civil War era,” said Tom Place, curator of the Echoes Through Time Civil War Learning Center. “We also hope the community will come in and take advantage of the many resources available at the Hulbert Library.” The Echoes Through Time Civil War Learning Center, located at 39 East Main St. in Springville, is a museum featuring a wide array of Civil War displays and exhibits. The Hulbert Library is located at 18 Chapel St. in Springville. Its winter hours are 1 to 8 p.m. Monday; 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday; 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday; noon to 7 p.m. Friday and 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday. It is closed on Wednesdays and Sundays.
the United States. Ironically, the male woodchuck leaves his den in early February to find a mate. So, he was a perfect replacement. By the early 1840s, German populations were moving into western New York; Springville was no exception. The tradition of Candlemas and the groundhog would come to Springville with the formation of St. Aloysius Parish. As early as 1845, Fathers Dolan and McKeaver would travel from Ellicottville to Springville to provide the sacraments to the Irish and German settlers near here. In 1853, Bishop Timon authorized the fathers to purchase the original Congregationalist church property on Franklin Street. The first resident priest in Springville was Father Uhrich, who was appointed in 1868. At the same time the church was forming, something else was happening in the Springville area. Large numbers of German immigrants were coming here. In the early 1850s, Germans were coming to Springville and southern Erie County en masse. And unlike other settlers, the Germans would buy a large farm with other families from their hometown, and families would come from that town and live on the same farm until they could be better established. Even more interesting was that these German families were Roman Catholic, and therefore, would have many children; these children would marry the other families’ children and the congregation of St. Aloysius Parish grew immensely. I mentioned that they would come from the same hometown in Germany; in Springville’s
case, the German town of Wiesental, Baden, Germany was that town. Many of this new German Catholic population was from this town; the Ammans, Bremillers, Gentners, Schuhmachers, Mahls, Schwiekerts, Reuters, Salzlers, Zimmermans, Seiders and Scharfs were all families the emigrated to Springville from Wiesental. So much growth in a short time led the congregation to build a new church in 1879. Designed by Springville resident Thomas Lincoln, the new wooden edifice was dedicated in September 1879. In 1883, the parish opened a parochial school to respond to the fact that the Methodist Church operated the public schools. A new school was built in 1904. There were some discussions about building a new parsonage in the 1920s. However, it was decided to remodel the existing parsonage. An ever growing church, in 1953, the parish broke ground on a new church. The beautiful stone church, that seats 650 people, was dedicated in 1955. In 1973, the old Griffith Institute was raised and the St. Aloysius Parish bought the adjoining property. In 1978, Bishop Head dedicated the new Msgr. Zimmerman Hall. The new Parish hall was named in honor of Msgr. Herman Zimmerman, who served as parish priest from 1922 until his retirement in 1969. Father Larry Cobel is the current pastor of St. Aloysius and has served the congregation of St. Al’s and St. John the Baptist Church for nearly a decade. If you wish to attend mass, weekend masses are 4 p.m. Saturdays and 10:30 a.m. on Sundays.
