Welcome Back to Allegany State Park Big Improvements at New York’s Largest State Park

There are big things happening at Allegany State Park, and to the thousands of people who think of it as a second home, you won’t want to miss any of them this season! At over 65,000 acres, Allegany State Park is the largest state park in New York. It’s made up of two sides: Red House, which is closer to Salamanca and is known for its beautiful Administration building overlooking the bustling Red House Lake; and Quaker, boasting the serene Quaker Lake and rural beauty. Both sides are accessible from I-86, and connect to one another within the park limits. When you enter the park’s Quaker area for the first time this season, you’ll notice a brand-new “Bathhouse” overlooking Quaker Lake, where the former bathhouse, built in 1970, once stood. The old structure was torn down last fall, and construction on the new building began soon afterwards. “The new bathhouse consists of one wing with lifeguard, first aid, storage and snack bar areas with another for restrooms including a men’s group bathroom, women’s group bathroom, and two family restrooms,” explained park manager Tom Livak. “The new bathhouse will include a third section in the middle of the building

EFD Open House April 23 By Jann Wiswall
Every single citizen in the U.S. counts on firefighters and first responders to be there -- just in case -- every single day. Even if you’ve never called for help yourself, most likely you know someone who has. In some places, fire departments have paid staff, but in most areas, fire department members are volunteers who donate many, many hours to train and respond to emergencies. And there are never enough volunteers, especially in rural, sparsely populated areas. See EFD Open House page 9
Town Board OKs Relay for Life Fundraiser Reviews Insurance Coverage for Town Center By Jann Wiswall
Several community members had business with the Town of Ellicottville’s board on Wednesday, April 20. Betsy Peyser and Teresa Wagner attended the meeting
to brief the board on their plans to hold fundraising events throughout the summer and into the fall to raise funds to capture, spay/neuter and provide basic veterinary care to the growing population of stray cats that have been making their homes throughout Ellicottville. They estimate the cost per cat will be $65.
Wagner and Peyser explained that efforts in the past have not gotten off the ground because there are no organizations in the region that are able to provide the necessary services in Ellicottville. Through their recent efforts, however, they have enlisted the help of a veterinarian who will volunteer See Town Board page 4
Cascade Bridge Demolition Detours and Closures The old Cascade Bridge, which connects Erie and Cattaraugus Counties on Rt. 219 in Ashford/Concord, is being demolished and a new bridge is being constructed by the State Department of Transportation. As of Monday, April 25, Rt. 219 will be closed in both directions in the area until
completion in summer 2017. All traffic may use the 219 expressway between Peters Rd. and Rt. 39. Local traffic will have use of two new temporary ramps that have opened. Northbound traffic can continue on 219 past Peters Rd. to Schwartz Road and turn right. A temporary ramp will
take you over the creek on the Expressway. Southbound traffic will be directed to a new ramp at Cascade Drive onto the Expressway. You may exit at Schwartz or continue on to Peters Rd. Demolition of the bridge will be completed this June. See Cascade Bridge page 8

Basket Raffle Raises Money for BCH
BCH Women’s Association members volunteer at one of the raffle tables: Mitzi Lawton, Debi Lickfield, Diane Martin and Liz Cappola.
Volunteers from the Bertrand Chaffee Hospital Women’s Association coordinated their annual basket raffle on Saturday, April 16 at the Concord Town Hall. Nearly 200 baskets were on display for a crowd of community members, volunteers and employees from Bertrand Chaffee Hospital. Since 1996, this group has raised and contributed about $200,000 in support of projects and equipment at Bertrand Chaffee Hospital and the Jennie B. Richmond Nursing Home.
By Kim Duke, NETA & AAFA Certified Trainer
I hate to admit it, but I have been in the fitness industry for 34 years. Granted, I started out as a teenager teaching aerobics back in the 80’s when certifications were not so important and you made your own music mix by taping music off the radio. A lot has changed since then. Music can be pre-ordered and downloaded, certifications are a must and can be achieved in a variety of ways, and, in 34 years, my body has given birth, broken a couple bones here and there and needs extra time to warm up before I get into an exercise routine. I HAVE AGED… So, as an older adult, I look at strength training as an obligation to keep my body
strong and injury resistant. Dr. Deborah L Mullen, a researcher at Tufts University Exercise Lab, says “that strength training is a potent age eraser. It is their weapon of choice for fighting physical declines associated with aging. More and more fitness experts are recommending strength training for health reasons--for women as well as men, older adults as well as younger adults. Strength training is extremely important in combating the age-related declines in muscle mass, bone density and metabolism. It is an effective way to increase muscle strength and to shed unwanted inches. Strength training also helps to decrease back pain, reduce arthritic discomfort, and help prevent or manage some diabetic symptoms.” At Tufts University, researchers also found that strength training can add bone density. Prior to this research, it was thought that women might be able to slow their bone loss, but not increase their bone density. This new study shows that strength training at any age can actually add bone, not just slow its loss. Strength training, when done properly, can make you feel like a strong machine.
However, if there are exercises that are done incorrectly or are too difficult for your joints or back, injury can result and sideline you from your healthy experience. According to Dr. Mullen, “sensible strength training may be one of the best ways to get relief from your arthritis. Not only will it help to lubricate and nourish the joint, strength training will also strengthen the muscles around the joint, providing it with greater support.” Strength training is critical for combatting frailty and disability, for increasing strength and mobility, and for staying active and selfsufficient. Research has consistently shown the fitness and health benefits of strength training for older adults. You don’t have to decline with age! You can control these declines or even reverse them with strength training—it will have a great impact on the quality of your life as you grow older. If you want to stay fit, trim, strong, mobile, and physically independent as you age, then you should be strength training for 30 minutes, twice a week. There isn’t another investment that pays off as well.
Town Board Continued from front page
6-8 nights to provide care, with the help of other volunteers. Peyser noted that the group is looking to borrow humane animal traps (e.g. Havahart) to use throughout the project. They will be returned, she said. In addition, the group is planning a large fundraiser at the Town Center on August 5. The board thanked Peyser and Wagner for their efforts on the town and village’s behalf, agreeing with Peyser’s assessment that the strays have become a “black eye” for Ellicottville. Priscilla Snyder and Mary Kuhn asked the board to allow their American Cancer Society Relay for Life team to hold a “Boot Drive” on April 31. Snyder explained that the Village board had turned down their request to hold the fundraiser between Jefferson and Monroe Streets on Washington Street. The town board suggested doing the fundraiser on Rt. 219 at the intersection with Rt. 242 (near Tim Horton’s) and approved the request. Police Officer in Charge Don Auge agreed to provide traffic management. Board member Steve Crowley said Holiday Valley would loan the group traffic cones. Snyder assured the board that Relay organizers will provide safety vests for team members. Supervisor’s Report Town Supervisor Matt McAndrew introduced the town’s insurance agent Randy Glenn, representing the Evans Insurance Agency, who briefed the board on some changes he recommended to the town’s policy. Glenn explained that events where alcohol is served are higher risk for the town. As a result, he said that all commercial groups and organizations holding events at the Town Center, as well as all catering companies providing alcohol, should be required to provide certificates of liability coverage. Individuals and groups holding private events should be asked to sign “release of liability” waivers. If possible, they should also be asked to show certificates of liability coverage. Glenn said that, as a matter of policy, the town should consider requiring waivers for all other events at other public venues where alcohol may be served. The board and the town attorney agreed to review the recommended changes to the policy and prepare any necessary paperwork in time
for the May board meeting. The board approved a bid for lawn mowing services and considered two estimates for a new HVAC system at the town/ village hall. The two HVAC bids were for two completely different systems – one a furnace based system, the other a heat pump system with ceiling diffusers. Town Engineer Mark Alianello said he has not yet done a thorough analysis on the two approaches or their energy efficiency. He said he will consider the options and come back to the board with suggestions. Once the board decides on an approach, Alianello will develop specifications and the project can go out for bid. Department Head Reports Police Officer in Charge Don Auge reported that the department’s computers do not have enough data storage to handle video from the new body cameras. He said he is looking into external hard drive costs. It was also suggested that he look into cloud storage costs. Mark Alianello, acting highway superintendent, reported that a summer intern has been hired to work on an inventory of all highways in the town through the Cornell Asset Management Program (CAMP) summer intern project. The intern and a member of the highway department staff will attend training in May and begin the project in June. Alianello also reported that the NY Consolidated Local Streets and Highway Improvement Plan (CHIPS) funding to the town will be about $2,000 more than anticipated in the budget ($102,000 total). Plus, he said there’s a new “Pave New York” program announced that will provide $23,000 in funds for Ellicottville road paving projects. As town engineer, Alianello reported that a pump at water booster station #1 is damaged and must be replaced. The estimated cost for the pump plus construction and system improvements will come to about $100,000. He said there are funds in the capital project budget that can be used for the project and he will ask the board to consider it in more detail at next month’s meeting. The project also must be approved by the County Health Department. Finally, Alianello, as a member of the EllicottvilleGreat Valley Trail Committee,
said the committee is planning to apply for a $1.8 million TIGER grant. He asked the board to again support the project by committing to fund 20% of the project. The grant requires local backing. Trail Committee President Ken Hinman, who also serves on the town board, said that the committee intends to raise the $360,000 town share so that taxpayers will not foot that bill. New & Old Business The board discussed some issues at the Town Center and Arboretum, including moving the dumpster to a new location, issues with a requested new driveway that would lead to the back patio, and arboretum ditch cleaning. Town Clerk Robyn George reported that the state retirement system required an accounting of Town Supervisor Matt McAndrew’s “standard work day” as supervisor. After careful recordkeeping since he took office in January, McAndrew is working 14 six-hour days per month. His retirement will be based on that figure. George also reported that, at the board’s request, she is researching a records storage software system that would allow the town to make scanned, searchable, indexed copies of paper documents and store them on disk. Alianello mentioned that he knows of another company she should consider. McAndrew said that he had met with the family of former Highway Superintendent Dave Golley about holding a dedication of the Town Highway Barn to Golley. In addition to installing a sign, the group thought about planting a tree on the grounds. Currently, however, there is no green space or landscaping. McAndrew suggested that once the area is cleaned up along those lines, the town could hold an open house for the dedication and to introduce the public to the new town highway superintendent, who will be appointed next week during a special board meeting on Weds, April 27 at 3:30 p.m. An inter-municipal water agreement between the town and village of Ellicottville that formally ended in January was extended by the town board during an executive session. The agreement will be retroactive to January 10 and will end on May 31, 2017. The next regular meeting of the town board is scheduled for Weds, May 18 at 6 p.m. in the town/village hall.

Happy Half The half marathon begins at 10 a.m. at Holiday Valley. The course leads runners north through scenic, lightly traveled, rural roads in a great atmosphere. Intersections will be controlled by local Police and County Sheriff’s Departments to ensure a safe experience for all participants. The race ends back at the resort. The 5K, which starts at 10:20 a.m., also begins and ends at Holiday Valley. The course route takes runners out on Rt. 219, left at Brewers Cross Road and then back again. Awards will be given in the following age groups for both men and women: Overall Winner, 10 and under (5K only) 19 & Under (half only), 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60 & over. Do you consider yourself a champion beer drinker? How about trying your skills out at the Beer Mile? This 21-and-over race, sponsored by Southern Tier Brewing, challenges participants to drink a beer, run a quarter mile, and repeat three more times, for a total of one mile and four beers. If you’re up for something with a little less of both, grab a friend and take part in the Beer-lay instead, where you and a teammate each drink two
beers and run a half mile. “We’ve read about the Beer mile and thought it would be a fun event to try,” Bush said. The Beer Mile awards will be given in the following categories: Fastest Beer Miler in Western NY (Male & Female), Fastest Masters (40+ years old) Beer Miler in Western NY (Male & Female), Fastest two-person (any gender) relay in Western NY, Fastest Happy Half & Beer Mile Combined (Male & Female), Fastest Masters (40+ years old) Happy Half & Beer Mile combined in Western NY (Male & Female), Fastest Happy 5K & Beer Mile Combined (Male & Female), Fastest Masters (40+ years old) Happy 5K & Beer Mile combined in Western NY (Male & Female). Following the race will be an after-party in the Main Lodge, sponsored by Southern Tier Brewing. “After the race, (participants) can enjoy the party and all the other outdoor activities Holiday Valley has to offer,” said Bush. “Then of course they can head down to the Village. Some of the local merchants are going to be giving discount coupons for the competitors in their goodie bags.” Spots are still available but are booking up quickly for
all three races. To register, or for more info, visit www. happyhalfrun.com. “It is our hope that we can put on a fun running event that brings new people to our area at a time of year that people don’t generally think about coming here,” said Bush, adding that, “Ellicottville has so much to offer during any season.”

that includes a multi-purpose space which will be used for interpretive & nature lectures and Friends Group meetings and programs, staff training and private events. The total footprint of the new building is just over 10,000 square feet, which is about 1,500 square feet larger than the original building. Along the exterior of the building we’ve added three exterior shower towers for patrons to rinse off, new cluster seating and all new playground structures.” According to John Marino, Owner/General Manager of J-Con Parks, which operates all retail space within the park, the year-round event space will be rentable through the park’s rental office. The event space will feature “a fireplace on one side and plenty of glass to show off the view of Quaker lake,” Marino said, adding that “the location will be perfect for weddings, rehearsal dinners, company functions and private parties. It’s our hope that it will attract many future weddings.” The building will feature a large kitchen and seating to accommodate such groups. “We’re developing a large kitchen in anticipation of future growth for catering,” Marino explained. “We are beginning to work in partnership with Dina’s of Ellicottville on this new growth area of our food service within the park. Dina and her staff have a great reputation and I thought, what better way to jump start my catering opportunities in the park than join forces with a local catering business that has done it for a long time?” The new bathhouse will also boast a snack bar for beachgoers. “We will still have all the staples -- ice cream, burgers and fries -- but are hoping to expand our menu with more healthy options,” Marino said. “The total cost of the Quaker Bathhouse project was $4,031,000,” stated park manager Tom Livak. “The breakdown of funding includes $2,250,000 of NY Parks 2020 funding, $1,750,000 which was provided by the LWCF (Land and Water Conservation Fund) and an additional $31,000 that was provided by the Allegany Region. The project is accomplished via four prime contracts awarded to an electrical, mechanical, plumbing and general contractor. Each of those primes uses numerous subcontractors as needed.” To make the Lake’s beach even more fun for the younger set, there is a new playground. Other improvements include new sidewalks and landscaping and, according to Marino, “a new boat rental operation on Quaker Lake may be introduced in the future.” In addition, “The lower parking lot will receive new LED lighting, new concrete curbing and sidewalks along with a complete new pavement once all the remaining work is completed,” Livak noted. “The upper parking lot will be used for overflow parking as needed. “Current construction activities at the site include ongoing work on exterior siding, metal roofing, stone work on both exterior & interior, site work and extensive interior finish work,” Livak
Rendering of the new Park Restaurant patio
explained, adding that the new bathhouse is on schedule to open for beach season, by late June. Park Dining Let’s face it—while cooking over a campfire is part of the camping experience, sometimes it’s nice to have a break and let someone else do the cooking. That’s where the Park Restaurant comes in. Located on the second floor of the Red House Administration building, the restaurant offers something for everyone. And what makes it even bigger and better this season? Outdoor seating! “The new patio, which we’re really excited about, will be out in front of the Administration Building next to the flag poles,” Marino said. “The view of Red House Lake will be just awesome, and the building’s architecture will be behind you. The stamped concrete will be done by early to mid May and we’re hoping to have the patio open by Memorial Day Weekend.” According to Marino, the new patio will be accessed by “a new sidewalk leading to the patio near the flag poles, and we’re going to have commercial string lights to give it a ‘cool’ outdoor atmosphere,” he explained. “There are some very nice outdoor patios in Ellicottville and it’s my hope we can join the ever popular outdoor eating venues for ASP guests and locals to enjoy!” Each table will have it’s own umbrella and a great view. The patio will seat approximately 40-45 people, but Marino added that, “if everything goes well, there is room to expand in the future.” The restaurant, which was closed all winter, will be reopening on Friday, May 6 at noon, in time for Mother’s Day weekend. It will be open Fridays through Sundays through Memorial Day weekend, and then daily operations begin. As far as the fare? “We plan on doing a lot more daily specials, but still have a lot of our menu from last year in place,” stated Marino. Favorites include a Friday Fish Fry and a Sunday breakfast buffet. “Both events are very busy times for us!” Marino added. Boathouse Rentals Every view of Red House Lake is a good one, and there are so many different ways to enjoy it. First stop: the Red House Boathouse, where you can rent Old Town kayaks and canoes, stand up paddleboards (SUPs), paddle boats, rowboats and bikes. Marino explained that they will be adding more kayaks and canoes to their fleet this year. In addition, beginning in mid-June, “we will be renting these really cool four-wheel pedal bikes called Prime Karts,” Marino said. “Our boathouse operation is obviously ‘weather permitting,’ but we had a very busy year last season as visitors from the surrounding areas, including Ellicottville, are learning more and more about our watercraft and bike rental business in the park,” Marino stated. The Boathouse opens for the season on Saturday, April 30. It will be open weekends, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. through Memorial
The new Quaker Bathhouse is currently under construction and is on schedule to open by late June.
Day weekend, after which hours will be extended. Park Shopping What’s a trip to ASP without a stop or two at the stores? There are many to choose from, including a gift shop and a general store on each side of the park. There’s always something new at all the stores, and the upcoming season is no exception. “Were always changing our product mix in our shops,” Marino said. “Between the shirts and gifts, our staff looks for unique and different items and they do a great job locating smaller companies that you won’t see at the big box stores.” Plus, he added, “We look for as many ‘Made in America’ items as we can find, which is really important to me and our guests.” At the Red House General Store, located across from the Red House campsite loops, guests can check out the all-new Bear Paw Mining Company, a fun activity for kids and adults. “We sell 1-2 tons of polished rocks every year in our gift shops and I thought, why don’t we add an activity to it!” said Marino. The Mining Company will include a 12-foot water tower and plenty of rocks to choose from. People simply choose a rock bag, “pan” for rocks and keep what they find. “I’ve been just amazed being at the park now over 20+ years now, how polished rocks, geodes, magnetic rocks... sell year after year,” Marino explained. “I thought this activity would be well received by our guests. We’re hoping to attract school groups to this activity as well.” Marino also noted that the Quaker Gift Shop, connected to the Quaker Museum, is being remodeled with new fixtures and slatwall. In addition, the Bear Paw Fudge Company will be making its
debut at the Quaker General Store, located across from the Quaker registration building. Cottages If you really want to live it up this season, book a stay at one of the park’s full-service cottages, located on the Bova (Red House) and Parallel (Quaker) trails. There are 15 cottages on Bova and 13 on Parallel, five of which on each trail are pet-friendly. “These cottages are full service. You really just need to bring your personal items,” explained Marino. Amenities include sheets/pillows, towels, kitchen supplies, two bedrooms (one with a full bed, one with two twin beds), a full bathroom with shower, two futons, forced air heat, stove, refrigerator, blankets, utensils, coffee machine and a toaster. Cottages also include two picnic tables and outdoor grills. “We had a very busy first season last year and reservations were strong this past winter even with the lack of snow,” Marino said. “People just want to get away from their busy schedules for a weekend.” The popularity of these cottages means you need to make your plans early, as fall dates are already booking up. Reservations can be made at www.reserveamerica.com. Marino added that “walk-Ins are welcome in the off-season and guests can rent one at either rental office in the park.” Nightly rates are $187.50 and the weekly rate is $750. With the warmer temps and sunny days ahead, it’s the perfect time to plan your return to Allegany State Park, a home away from home. Whether you head there for a few hours, a weekend, or an entire week come summer, be sure to enjoy all that’s new alongside your old favorites!
The Red House Boathouse is adding to its fleet this season.
The park offers 28 full-service cottages that can be reserved at www.reserveamerica.com.

NYS Burn Ban Through May 14 “While many people may associate wildfires with the western United States, the early start of spring weather, dry conditions and lack of snow pack are increasing the risk for wildfires in New York,” said Acting Commissioner Basil Seggos. “New York prohibits residential burning during the high-risk fire season to reduce wildfires and protect people,
property and natural resources. Since being enacted in 2009, the ban has been extremely effective in reducing the number of wildfires, and we need all residents to put safety first and follow the brush burning ban.” The DEC also urges citizens to employ alternatives to burning brush, like chipping wood and downed branches for
use as mulch and composting yard waste, leaves and plant clippings for use in gardens. Campfires: Campfires using charcoal or untreated wood are allowed, but people should never leave fires unattended and must completely extinguish them before leaving the area. Burning Garbage: Burning garbage or leaves is prohibited year-round.

‘As Time Goes By’ by Mary Higgins Clark Television journalist Delaney Wright is on the brink of stardom after she begins covering a sensational murder trial for the six p.m. news. She should be thrilled, yet her growing desire to locate her birth mother consumes her thoughts. When Delaney’s friends Alvirah Meehan and her husband Willy offer to look into the mystery surrounding her birth, they uncover a shocking secret they do not want to reveal. On trial for murder is Betsy Grant, widow of a wealthy doctor who has been an Alzheimer’s victim for eight years. When her once-upon-a-time celebrity lawyer urges her to accept a plea bargain, Betsy refuses: she will go to trial to prove her innocence. Betsy’s stepson, Alan Grant, bides his time nervously as the trial begins. His substantial inheritance hangs in the balance—his only means of making good on payments he owes his ex-wife, his children, and increasingly angry creditors. As the trial unfolds, and the damning evidence against Betsy piles up, Delaney is convinced that Betsy is not guilty and frantically tries to prove her innocence. A true classic from Mary Higgins Clark, As Time Goes By is a thrilling read by a master of the genre. This book is currently available in book format only at the Ellicottville Memorial Library. It is also available as an audio book and a large print book using our interlibrary loan program. Don’t forget, you can access over 13,700 eBooks and eAudiobooks using your library card!

Arbor Day at Nannen Arboretum, April 29
The Nannen Arboretum will celebrate Arbor Day on Friday, April 29 at 11 a.m. The celebration will begin with planting a native tree and
raising the Tree City Flag in the arboretum. A reception will follow in the Town Center, which is adjacent to the Arboretum. There will be a short program with two forest rangers speaking on forest fire management and invasive species’ effects on trees. Refreshments will be served. Arbor Day was founded by J. Sterling Morton in Nebraska. As an editor of a newspaper, he spread information about the importance of planting trees. In 1872, he proposed a tree planting holiday and offered prizes to counties and individuals for properly

planting the largest number of trees that day. It was estimated that more than one million trees were planted on that first Arbor Day. The Arboretum board and its volunteers continue to carry on the legacy of Mr. Morton by planting and maintaining the Nannen Arboretum. Join us for the 144th year of celebrating Arbor Day. As Morton stated, “Each generation takes the earth as trustees. We ought to bequeath to posterity as many forests and orchards as we have exhausted and consumed.”

Nature Center Workshop on Wild Edibles, April 30 Did you know that with a little bit of knowledge, nature can be your grocery store? On Saturday, April 30, you can learn to identify spring greens, flowers and other wild edibles at the Audubon Nature Center’s “Edible Audubon — Spring Greens and Other Things” workshop. Some people forage for survival, others to save on the grocery bill. Foraging can also be a wonderful way to spend time outside, learn plant identification, try new foods, and strengthen your connection to the earth and the food it produces to nourish our bodies. At the 2-4 p.m., workshop participants will discover how to recognize edible plants and distinguish them from those that may look similar. The class will start with some basic ground rules and safety considerations about harvesting wild edibles, then head outside to identify those growing and blooming in the spring. It will also cover some

in order to be of help. In fact, EFD member Glenda Jackson notes that, like her, there are many people who “take on all sorts of roles you may not have even thought about -from driving trucks, directing traffic and handling hoses, to changing air tanks, distributing drinking water and restocking supplies. There’s a lot going on during a fire or accident call and people are needed to help in many ways.” In addition, leaders of the EFD Explorer Post 652 will be on hand to provide information about this program for boys and girls ages 13-15. The Explorer Post was established last year in part to address the severe shortage of fire department volunteers, especially younger volunteers who can take the place of those who will be retiring in the next few years. Teens ages 16 and older may join the department as full-fledged members. With a recent donation from the Ellicottville Rotary Club

EFD Open House If you’ve ever thought about volunteering, or if your spouse or son or daughter has, this Saturday is your chance to learn more. The Ellicottville Fire Department is hosting an open house as part of the Recruit NY program. Its purpose is to educate people of all ages about firefighting, encourage folks to volunteer and have a little fun in the process. It all starts at the Fire Hall (30 Fillmore Drive) on Saturday, April 23 from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. During the day, you and your family can learn about volunteering, take part in CPR and fire extinguisher demonstrations and pick up some fire prevention and safety tips. Kids can take a ride on a fire truck, try on some gear and snag some fun treats. Members of the department also will be there to answer questions you might have about what it means to be a volunteer and will explain that you don’t have to physically fight fires
ASK ABOUT OUR GENERATOR S!
to help purchase gear for the Explorers, there’s no time like the present to get your budding firefighters involved. To make it all even more exciting, WGWE radio 105.9 will be doing a live broadcast from the fire hall from 1-3 p.m. The first 20 people who arrive to the fire hall that day will receive free smoke detectors! And, for a $9 donation, you’ll be able to dine on delicious Wendel’s BBQ Chicken with all the trimmings. Proceeds from the sale of the chicken meals will go toward the purchase of training equipment. Sponsors for this year’s event include The City Garage, Dina’s, The Gin Mill, Madigan’s and Villaggio. If you can’t make it to the open house but are interested in learning more about joining, stop by the fire hall any Tuesday evening from 6:30-8 p.m. when volunteers gather for a work night. No advance notice is needed.
