On Saturday, judges Mark Ward, Ellicottville Central School Superintendent; Jana Eisneberg, Buffalo writer; Dave Elder, Buffalo musician and promoter; John Burrell, Mayor of Ellicottville; and Angela Christoforos, WIVB-TV multi-media journalist, took the tour of restaurants to try each See Taste of EVL Winners 8
ASP Artists in Residence
Final Concert of the Season Aug. 26 By Alicia Dziak
If you’re a regular at Allegany State Park (ASP) during the summer months, you’ve probably noticed that “Artist in Residence” has been popping up on the weekly program schedule. What this means is that a musical artist resides in the park for a week and performs concerts throughout the park during his or her stay. Dan Duggan is considered by many to be the “father” of the Artist in Residence program. “I don’t know the exact year, but I believe it was around 1980-81, Mike Kelley was the park commissioner,” See Artists in Residence page 9

Fall is in the air, and little league football season is upon us. Tim Grinols, now in his third season as the Ellicottville Little Eagles Midget Head Coach, led his team to a 27-7 victory over the Pine Valley Longhorns on Saturday, August 20 at Ellicottville Central School. “We had 34 kids suit up to play and every one of them contributed to the win. The smiles on their faces during and after the game were awesome and the coaching staff could not be more proud of them,” said Grinols. The Eagles finished the 2015 season with 7-3 overall record and are looking forward to another solid season. League President Todd Palmatier said the team is “poised to do very well this season.” He remarked that “the entire Cattaraugus County Midget Football League (CCMFL) has essentially balanced itself out, with a decrease from 18 to 10 teams due to several programs merging.” He continued by saying “the Eagles have seen a very good run since 2008. The league prides itself on family values and instilling sportsmanship, while building on skills both on and off the field for the young athletes who may be recruited at the high school level for college athletic programs.” The Eagles Midget coaching staff is rounded out by volunteers Rance Wilson, Charlie Doner, Kevin Murray, Bryan Clark, Preston Cochran, Cheerleading Head Coach Christina Grant and Crystal Meppen. Before the Saturday evening Midget victory, Mark Chudy, in
his second season as Pee Wee Head Coach, led his team to a convincing 27-13 victory over the Longhorns that included a first quarter delay of game due to a driving rainstorm. Scoring was led by Hunter Smith with two touchdowns and Xavier Peters and Derik Shoepflin with one TD each. Extra points were put in by Owen Chudy, Simon Clark and Carter Smith. The line was anchored by
Christopher Calarco, Jadon Shoepflin, Isaiah Ploetz and Noah Morlock. The Eagles Pee Wee coaching staff is rounded out by volunteers Cale Benjamin, Steve Rowland, Jason Urbanski, Josh Auman, Junior Coach Liam Watt, Cheerleading Head Coach Lisa DeChane, Christina O’Brien and Christina Martens. Assisting the Eagles organization as equipment manager is Bob Adams. Safety Coordinator is Frank Morlock. Of special interest to football fans this year is the addition of flag football teams made up of boys and girls that allow them to learn the fundamentals and basics of football before joining the larger teams at age 7. The Little Eagles flag football teams are coached by Scott Andrews and Chad Smith, both ECS football alumni. The Eagles will face the newly merged Cattaraugus Little Valley Timberwolves on Saturday, August 27 beginning at 5 p.m. for flag football, and 6 p.m. for regular league action.

for the community, but was concerned with disposal of spent grain. He noted that if it is left out for more than a few days, grain can produce an unpleasant odor and asked for “timely disposal” of the waste. The board agreed to add that as a condition of the special use permit. Other conditions of the special use permit include not obstructing the view of motorists with the establishment’s fence, not creating unnecessary noise and maintaining the drainage system. Any modifications to the site plan, Palumbo said, need to be approved by the planning board. After declaring a negative State Environmental Quality Review, the board approved the special use permit. A conditional special use permit was also approved for Ellicottville Yurts and Recreation owner Justin Dineen. The site plan for the campground on Rt. 219 near the old Riley’s Restaurant, however, is “conditional upon the County planning board coming back with no adverse comments,” Palumbo explained. During the public hearing on
the matter, Dineen’s neighbors stated for the record that there was a working family farm across from the campground location. The 75-year-old farm has chickens, cows, horses and other animals. The board made note of the statement, adding that it doesn’t seem that the campground would cause any issues with the farm. The first phase of the campground will include up to four yurts, portable bathrooms and a trailer, which will serve as an office. There will be no sewer or electric to the yurts and generators will not be permitted. A negative declaration for the SEQR was approved, and the special use permit was approved with several conditions. Dineen is required to move the driveway so it is 10 feet from his property line or get signed approval from his neighbor to allow the driveway to encroach the neighboring property. Other conditions include getting approval for a sign, creating parking spaces that are 9 ½ feet by 18 feet and providing animal-proof receptacles for trash. In new business, the board discussed a possible proposal
for a dog day care, after a letter was sent to Palumbo proposing the idea. The operation would care for no more than one family’s pets at a time, including overnight. There would be a separate entrance in the applicant’s home with a designated room. According to town code, a kennel cannot be a home-based business, though Palumbo said he wasn’t sure if this would qualify as a kennel or a home-based business. Concerns were raised about a possible increase in noise affecting any neighbors, and it was determined there would have to be a special use permit issued. A discussion was also held on the town’s comprehensive plan, after Palumbo asked the board to review the current plan and note any sections that need to be updated or reviewed. “We’re not rewriting anything at this point,” Palumbo said. “I’m looking for a scope of what you want to look at over the next year.” The next town planning board will meet on Monday, Sept. 26 at 6 p.m. in the town/ village hall.
By Kim Duke NETA & AAFA Cer tified Trainer
Without sounding like a broken record, your core strength is essential to an overall strong body. Case in point, my youngest client, Noah Morlock, is nine years old. Noah came to me after he had broken his leg and was completing physical therapy. Noah, who is well known for his athletic strengths as a wrestler and peewee football player, had lost his confidence after injuring his leg. He had to literally relearn coordination. due to the absence of the use of his leg for several weeks. He also still walked with a pronounced limp. After assessing Noah, I clearly saw that he was relying solely on his legs for walking, running, lunging, etc. What I explained to him is that if he was not engaging his CORE, he would not be able to accomplish these basic moves. That phrase, “Engage Your Core” became our motto. We also discussed the benefits of breathing, more specifically, EXHALING. Deep breathing aids in controlling your core’s tightness and the force in which you complete a task like pushing, pulling and elasticity movements such as leaping, lunging and running.
Noah just completed his tenth session with me. I have had the pleasure of watching him gain his strength and confidence back and then some. When he began, he could barely squat or lunge, struggled to battle rope for more than 20 seconds and needed plenty of rest breaks. Today was his ultimate test, 50-second timed stations with only 10 seconds to get to the next station. Noah slammed a 20 lb. slam ball, high-kneed on the trampoline, lunged (beautifully), battle roped, TRX skated, and plank walked with push ups AND he did this three times through. Noah’s perseverance and determination were a driving factor throughout, but at the age of nine years old, I saw such a tremendous amount
of growth in the span of five weeks! So, what’s the point of this article? The point is, you are NEVER too young to learn to engage your core. As a matter of fact, when engaging your core for stability, the goal is to create as solid a ring of muscles around your midsection as possible. To achieve that, you have to activate your core muscles slightly outward, stiffening them to create a protective “cylinder” around your abdomen. It’s a crucial component for good function, posture, and better to learn it earlier versus later. Noah is now a key member in our Kids Fit program. I even joked (suggested) with him, that someday he would be running his own class on core strength!

Summer Fun is Here!
Continued from front page
Duggan explained. “Our good friend Tom Stocky, a wonderful banjo and guitar player, had a job as the Chautauqua County troubadour, and was hired to go to the park for a two week period to do a few concerts and campfire programs. At the time, Tom was sick with leukemia, so my friend John Kirk and I went to the park with Tom and helped him with concerts. “The first year, we did concerts mainly on the Red House side of the park, and the Pitt cabin was where we all stayed. That year, Tom passed away and the next year, John and I came to the park for several weeks.” Originally, Duggan said, “we did a campfire at one of the cabin trails each night and the week would culminate with a concert inside the Administration building. We would go to a given trail late in the afternoon and go doorto-door handing out flyers about that evening’s program at their trail. We actually spent an entire summer one year doing the program. We also did country dances on the lawn of the Administration building on Tuesday nights and campfire sings during the week with a Friday night concert at the Administration building.”

OPEN DAILY FOR THE SEASON Your Summer Fun Headquarters for Water Rentals Bike Rentals for Adults and Kids of all ages. (Life Jackets and Bike Helmets included.) Ice & Bait available. Dan Duggan Duggan went on to note that, “As the program progressed, other artists were brought in and I would spend two weeks at the park, usually at the end of August each summer. The program continued to grow in popularity and eventually the Quaker side of the park was included with a program at the Amphitheater. The original concept was a much more intimate gathering designed specifically for a given trail each night with a big concert at the end of the week. In fact, we also did programs at Long Point State Park, which is on Chautauqua Lake, as part of the Residency.” Duggan recalled that in those early years, the Pitt cabin also was where the naturalists would work and that the crew would go there each week to create the schedule. “I have been to the park to perform for the Artist in Residence program every summer for a least a week, with the exception of the summer I finished cancer treatments and this summer due to a scheduling conflict,”
Duggan said. “There have been many changes to the program with different commissioners and folks who wrote the grant and set up the program, but the basic integrity of the program has remained intact. Today the program is primarily a concertbased program with concerts alternating between the Red House and the Quaker side.” These days, the program runs throughout peak season, July 4- Aug. 26. The Artists in Residence still stay in the park and play a series of five, one-hour concerts that rotate between the Red House and Quaker areas in locations that include the Quaker Amphitheater, Red House Beach House and Red House Administration Building lawn. This summer’s artists in residence have included Panfils, Sunset Bluegrass Band, Sean Patrick McGraw, Jamie Haight, Ken Hardley, Kevin McCarthy and Dave Stayner. The last Artist in Residence of the season is Davis & Eng, who will be performing the final concert of their stay this Friday, Aug. 26.

Stars Over Quaker Lake Sept. 3
Join us on Saturday, Sept. 3 at 9 p.m. at Park Site #52 at the south end of Quaker Lake to enjoy naked eye viewing of our beautiful night sky. You are probably familiar with the Big Dipper but can you find the Little Dipper? And how about the graceful swan gliding across the summer sky?
We’ll learn about these and other celestial wonders. We’ll also seek out a few good binocular targets. Long time amateur astronomer, Bert Probst, will lead us on a tour of the splendors of the summer sky. Be sure to dress warm and bring a lawn chair or blanket to sit on. Also, bug repellent is
not a bad idea. Please no pets or unshielded flash lights. Red cellophane covering a flash light will provide adequate illumination and yet preserve our night vision. Please join us for an informative evening under the stars. In case of clouds or rain the event will be cancelled.
The park is making improvements to their hiking, backcountry and horse trails. The improvements include a sustainable design to improve the durability and safety of the trails and the overall experience for their patrons.
New Hunting Regulations
Sunday hunting is now permitted in the Quaker Run Area. The new hunting permit guidelines are in effect for the 2016/17 hunting season in Allegany State Park. For more information, visit nysparks.com.

The Official Newspaper
of the Village of Springville, NY Springville-Griffith Institute Central Schools
By Colleen Mahoney
Gavin Davison, MD, will be joining Bertrand Chaffee Hospital as chairman of the hospital’s Department of Surgery and chief of surgery. The announcement was made in a press release Tuesday morning, which said Dr. Davison is a “key addition” to the hospital’s medical staff. Davison is a general surgeon who specializes in minimally invasive laparoscopic
procedures. By performing surgeries laparoscopically, patients can experience a shorter recovery time. Some of the procedures that will be performed by Davison include appendectomies, colonoscopies, upper endoscopies, tracheostomies and wound debridement, among others. Development and Community Relations Coordinator Kara Kane said BCH is in the process of securing staff and equipment to aid Davison. Kane expects he will be responsible for the more specialized procedures, some that can be performed laparoscopically and some that cannot. “When SGI Surgical Associates closed in August, BCH had a responsibility to fill the gap that was left for patients who are seeking surgical care,” said Nils Gunnersen, CEO, in a press release. “We are thrilled that we were able to recruit
Dr. Davison to our facility and we’re excited about the possibilities this presents for surgical services in our service area.” Davison earned a bachelor’s degree from Portland State University and a medical degree from Ross University School of Medicine, in 2009. He completed his general surgery residency through the University at Buffalo School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, in 2014. “This gives the hospital a dedicated physician who is here full time to see patients here and do procedures here,” Kane said. “Dr. Davison will be a real resource for our facility.” Dr. Davison will be seeing patients in his second floor office at BCH by early October. It’s anticipated he will begin performing surgeries by the end of October. For more information, call (716) 7943295.
Springville Police Celebrate 15-Year Anniversary
By Colleen Mahoney
The Springville Police Department will be celebrating its 15-year anniversary in September. The Department, which consists of 10 part-time officers and a police chief, was re-established in September 2001. Springville Mayor William Krebs said having a parttime police department gives the village more control over when officers are on patrol. The department is responsible for patrolling festivals and events in town, such as Dairy Fest and Pageant of the Bands, but Krebs said officers are also scheduled on Wednesdays during auction time and Friday nights during football season. “That’s the advantage to having a part-time police department in the village … scheduling police officers as
needed,” Krebs said. Police Chief John Fox has been with the department since its inception, and though he’s retiring in September, he said the importance of a communityminded police department cannot be overlooked. A former sergeant with the Erie County Sheriff’s Department, Fox said his officers can often be found walking in local businesses,
both patrolling and engaging with village residents. During the early years of the department, then-mayor Gary Eppolito called Fox to let him know one of his officers was getting a haircut while on duty. Fox spoke with the officer, who said he wasn’t getting a haircut, he had walked into the barbershop to See Springville PD page

SGI Welcomes Alum Bialasik as HS Principal
Upcoming Events Springville Area
By Ashlee O akley
Our community welcomes a new principal to SGI high school, James Bialasik. While he was born in the suburbs of Washington, D.C., Bialasik spent his middle and high school years in the Springville Griffith school district. When his father retired from the Secret Service and decided to head back to his roots in Buffalo, Bialasik was moved to Springville’s Middle School… a little bit of culture shock as a 10-year-old boy, and he says his formative years may have not gone so well if it weren’t for the teachers who cheered him on and urged him to succeed. Bialasik was an athletic student, playing football and running track through middle and high school, then playing football for Canisius College. He credits his sports experiences for instilling the principles he has had for his life and his career. From Canisius, he also earned a dual major in math and math education. While working as a high school math teacher for the Sweet Home Central school district starting in 2003, he also earned a Masters degree in Math Education at the University of Buffalo. From the beginning, it seemed he tended to take on leadership roles naturally. He was a teacher on special assignment as the Sweet Home High School assistant principal for a year; the next year, he had the opportunity to do the same at the middle school, and so, was the Dean of Students at Sweet Home Middle School. He went on to be the math coordinator, and then the coordinator for secondary education, managing the
Sept. 10 Fall Artisan Fest and Food Festival Granny’s Boot Antiques Sept. 11 8 in the Rough Trail Run Sprague Brook instructional programs within the entire district. He notes, “Obviously, much of my experience up until [the Coordinator for Secondary Education job] had been mathematics, and it really helped me to see more of a global perspective, to understand not only the core area subjects, but to really understand the off-core areas as well, such as arts, technology, physical education… I had a lot of opportunity to do a lot of work in those different areas. And that’s one thing I’m proud of in my work at Sweet Home, in bringing an emphasis back to some of those elective areas that are so important to the students.” When asked what he thinks he is bringing to the table for the benefit of the SGI community, he talked about the many changes over the years regarding state assessments. Bialasik says, “The social studies is really undergoing quite a bit of change, the Common Core is really out at the high school level now in both ELA and mathematics. On the science side, as well, basically, the state is really looking at changing our

Jeep Days at KB Aug. 27-28 By Alicia Dziak
Jeep owners love their Jeeps, and if you’re one of them, why not join other likeminded peeps this weekend for the 2016 Emerling Jeep KBMoto Trail Ride? On Saturday, Aug. 27 and Sunday, Aug. 28, Kissing Bridge hosts this adventure-filled event. “Emerling Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram strives to connect current and future customers with like-minded Jeep owners who enjoy testing the ‘Trail Rated’ capabilities of their recent or past purchases,” explained Samantha Zimmer, service and warranty administrator for Emerling Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. “Jeep days will consist of door raffles, a trail ride in the
morning and afternoon, with lunch provided. The trail rides will take Jeep enthusiasts on varying terrain, ranging from dirt roads to muddy trails.” Zimmer assures that trail riders who tackle difficult trails and wind up stuck will not be left behind. Other Jeep owners and KB staff ensure that everyone returns safely.
“In addition, the staff at Kissing Bridge guides all the Jeeps through the bulk of Kissing Bridge’s picturesque landscape,” Zimmer added. “When we break for lunch, it gives our Jeep riders a chance to meet with other riders from around western New York, See Jeep Days page 4 SINCE 1935

Ashford Businesses May Apply for Grant Funding By Colleen Mahoney
The Ashford Town Board, on Aug. 10, announced that it had been approved to apply for grant funding through the Restore New York Communities Initiative. Town Supervisor Charles Davis, III, reported that all businesses in the town and in West Valley are eligible to apply. According to the Empire State Development website, the Restore New York Communities Initiative “provides municipalities with ďŹ nancial assistance for revitalization.â€? Eligible p projects must involve the d demolition, deconstruction, rehabilitation re and/or reconstruction re of vacant, a abandoned, condemned a and surplus properties. T The grant funding is a available to commercial a and residential properties a and aims to encourage “ “community development and n neighborhood growth.â€? Discussion was held on p procedures to handle a possibly “ “overwhelmingâ€? response to the grant application a after Councilwoman Jean B Bond raised concerns. Davis suggested the planning board could be of assistance in the event of a lot of responses. The board approved a resolution to take legal action against D&H Excavating Inc. and E&M Engineers and Surveyors, PC, for errors in

their work at the Fox Valley Road bridge and culvert. The issue stems from work done in 2009 by both companies to repair damage caused to the bridge and culvert after a thunderstorm. With assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the town entered into a contract with the two businesses to make the repairs. Since then, the town has learned that the work included “multiple structural design and construction errors involving the hillside supporting and surrounding� the bridge, according to the resolution. The town requested the errors be corrected as there is concern for public safety. The town approved retaining Hodgson Russ, LLP, as outside counsel to pursue legal action, effective immediately. The Cattaraugus County Legislature is discussing privatizing county nursing homes in Olean and Machias, which the Ashford Town Board
feels will have a negative effect on its residents and employees. With that in mind, the board approved a resolution opposing the action and any bill that would “have adverse effect� on town residents. The board also approved a resolution for the New York State retirement standards for town employees, adopted a policy for highway project design and construction standards and awarded Valley Fab and Equipment the contract for purchase of one new and unused plow equipment and dump body, in the amount of $89,925. The Ashford Town Board will next meet Monday, Sept. 12 at 7:30 p.m. in the Ashford Community Center, 9377 Route 240 in West Valley. The meeting was rescheduled to Monday to accommodate the National Cleanup Workshop, which two board members will be attending.

Movie Night at SES Photos by Ashlee Oakley
The East Otto Fire Department and Cattaraugus County Emergency Services hosted a grain-bin extrication course on Aug. 19. More than 40 people from ďŹ re departments and farms throughout Cattaraugus County attended the training to better their skills. “There are more and more farms in the area that are storing grain,â€? East Otto Assistant Chief Tim Lexer explained. “We want to be prepared if someone gets stuck.â€? The National Education Center for Agricultural Safety, based in Peosta, Iowa, conducted the training. Instructor Dan Neenan held an hour-long classroom training followed by handson training. With the help of a grain bin simulator, trainees practiced making cuts in the bin using a grain-bin rescue tube and a battery drill-driven grain auger. While the departments in the area participated in the training, local farmers were on hand watching to learn about

the process as well. Lexer said it’s important for both farmers and ďŹ rst responders to have an understanding of how to handle emergency situations surrounding equipment they use often. “This is the second time I went through the training, and both times I came away with good information,â€? Lexer said. “It’s valuable to learn about.â€?
Gramco, of Springville, provided grain for the simulator and Wilean Farms in East Otto provided space for the training. The Farm Bureau secured grant funding to bring the training to Cattaraugus County. Lexer anticipates that district ďŹ re departments will discuss purchasing a grainbin rescue tube at their next meeting.

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT
Concord Land Realty: A Springville Staple
By Colleen Mahoney
Helen and David Brogan have built a life for themselves in the Springville area. Their seven children graduated from Springville-Griffith Institute, they’ve volunteered with the Dairy Fest committee and the Springville Area Chamber of Commerce and built lasting friendships. And, of course, they run their successful real estate business Concord Land Realty. The Brogan’s Springville story began in December 1976 when Dave got a job working as an assistant principal at the high school. The couple, which was living in Highland Mills, NY, had six children in school, so Helen stayed behind to let them finish out the school year. They joined Dave in the Springville area in August 1977, and for about a year Helen stayed home with their youngest daughter. In search of a part-time job, Helen began working with Tom Reynolds at Century 21 Concord Land Real Estate Company. “I’d never done real estate before … I just needed a parttime job,” Helen said. “It kind of evolved over time.” But she loved it and got her real estate license in 1978. Then Dave got his license about a year later and began working on Saturdays at Reynold’s agency. The couple fell in love with the real estate world and began putting more of their energy into it. “I loved it … we didn’t want to give it up,” Helen said. “It was never really part time, it never is.” Eventually, Reynold’s pursued politics -- becoming a New York State Assemblyman -- and passed the business on to Helen. They moved into their current location at 31 E. East Main Street, across from where the Leland House once sat. “I thought the location was great, people would come out of the Leland House and see us,” Helen said. “Then the Leland House closed … but we stayed here.” Before opening, the couple renovated the inside of the building which previously housed a dry cleaning business. They redid the floors, added doors and painted the inside. The outside was painted twice in an eye-catching red. In 1996, their Concord Land Realty officially opened its doors and has been serving the area ever since. Dave retired from education in 2000 and began picking up more real estate work. Soon after they hired Dennis Sibley as associate broker. Sibley has

been there ever since. About a year ago, Richard Brownell joined the team as a licensed real estate salesperson. “We’re kind of a happy little family,” Dave said, of his agents. “It’s been quite a ride, but we have fun with it.” Concord Land Realty services all of Western New York, from Fredonia to Rochester, Clarence to Olean. Helen explained all the agents can sell within the entire state of New York, but mostly stay regional. Sibley sells south into Randolph, Little Valley and the Salamanca area, while the Brogans and Brownell stay near the Concord area and north. “We’re part of the multiple listing service, which means we can sell anything in Western New York,” Dave said. “It’s like everything goes into a big pool and people try to pull from there and sell that.” A multiple listing service allows for real estate agencies to enter their properties into websites which are viewed by other multiple listing agencies in the area. It benefits sellers, as more potential buyers can see their property. Being in the business for 20 years, the Brogans have seen a lot of changes, both in Springville and in the real estate business. In addition to the Leland House closing, they’ve seen Main Street businesses come and go and the internet become a tool. “When we first started, we got a book every two weeks with all the property listings in Western New York,” Helen recalled. “We would have to search that entire book to find a property, type out the information and send it … everything was mailed … to our buyer.” Now, she said, a buyer gives a location and some features of a home they’d like and the Brogans type it into a website.
Multiple listings are found in less time than it took to find one in the listing book. They’ve also learned from trial and error, finding the best times for open houses and when people begin looking to sell their homes. “Everything affects the market,” Helen said – “The weather, the time of year.” Buffalo Bills’ games can also play a role in response rates, Dave said. “People don’t look at houses when the Bills are on,” he laughed. “We learned that after staring at each other at an open house for three hours.” Working with each other, Dave said, is one of the perks of the job. They put up signs, work open houses and drive to listings together. But it’s not just working together that has made the company successful, Helen and Dave agree. The people they’ve met have played a key role in Concord Land Realty. “We like it here, it’s a wonderful community with a lot of activities,” Helen said. “We’ve met a lot of people in this business, and they’re good people.” Those good people and the success the Brogans have seen will keep them going for awhile. They’re looking forward to continuing to serve the community, and the people who want to be in it. “To find a niche in a small town and be prosperous is unique,” Dave said. “In some aspects you control your own destiny … and we’ve worked for a long, long time for that.” Concord Land Realty is located at 31 E. Main St., in Springville. They can be reached at (716) 5924941 or online at www. ConcordLandRealty.com.

standards. They are in the process of doing that final revision.” He has really taken the time and opportunities, he explained, to study and understand the new timelines and revisions to the high school’s Common Core guidelines, and he believes this knowledge is a strength he brings to the school, and the district. His reasons for coming back to Springville are simple; he loves the area, and enjoys that his 5-year-old son, Kaiden, can start kindergarten at Springville Elementary School, and both his family and in-laws are close. He has also always wanted the fortuity to come back and serve in this district, but found a job in Sweet Home. He had lived in many local areas since then, until he and his wife built a house in Boston in 2007-2008, to finally come home. “It’s an opportunity to give back to the school; I really had an incredible experience at this school… there were a lot of people in this building that were mentors for me, and I felt
like if I could do that for other students who live in this district, I would love that opportunity.” He lauded his staff for making meaningful relationships with the students a priority, as well as communication. Bialasik and Kate Werner, Assistant Principal of SGI’s High School, have been planning to see how they can streamline the avenues of communications, student needs, and community, staff, and faculty relations. He praises Werner as a wonderful asset, as she knows everyone— the kids, parents, and faculty, and she, too, wants to see them thrive, and be the best they can be. On the forefront of their minds is technology integration and education, and how as a team, each student can be reached, regardless of their demographics. In relation to discipline, Bialasik is adamant about being patient with the students, and getting to the root of problems. He lauds the idea of having each student be “social/ emotional first-responders.” “You know that 99 percent
of the students know that [bullying, harassment, etc] is the wrong thing, and aren’t involved… it’s getting the 99 percent who are just around to GET involved. You are empowering students to know that it’s okay to do the right thing.” Although he has a lot on his plate with his wife Krista (another SGI Alumni, class of ‘00), 5-week-old baby Kole, and a new kindergartener, new house, and now, a new job, Bialasik plans to get involved in the community once he is settled in. He says he was very adamant about working at the high school, because the best part is the ability to directly impact kids’ lives. “They walk out of here, they’re off to the world-- they’re adults.” Going from a nervous freshmen into capable adults is an amazing, yet sometimes difficult transition to being ready for real life, and he wants to help your children succeed. For any questions or concerns you have for Mr. Bialasik, please see the district website for contact information.

introduce himself and began a conversation with the barber. “He said he had taken a seat while talking to the barber because he wanted to get to know the business owners in town,” Fox recalled. “It’s always been like that … these are the people we’re looking out for.” Fox said the Springville officers still make it a point to interact with community members and business owners, and Krebs noted that as another positive to having a village department. “We have the same officers, month after month, getting to know the village, the residents, the businesses,” Krebs said. “That’s not something we can guarantee with the Sheriff’s Office.” According to Fox, the officers have a good workingrelationship with the community, and have always answered calls for help. The department has two patrol vehicles and two New York State-certified bicycle patrol officers who share one police bike. The department started out with a K-9 partner and NYS certified dog handler, David
Hock, who passed away in March. Fox said there aren’t currently any plans to reinstate the K-9 unit, though he’s unsure what the incoming officer in charge will do. There are five officers currently on the roster who have been with the department since 2001 in addition to Fox. In July, the department’s first female officer was hired. Officers are required to be serving with another police department to be hired. Krebs said those requirements help to keep the cost low, as officers are trained in another department. “Public safety, which includes the police and fire departments, is the largest part of general funds [for municipalities] and Springville is no different,” Krebs said. “We have the advantage of having officers trained elsewhere.” Roughly six years ago, Krebs said, the Village Board of Trustees performed a data analysis on coverage from both the Springville Police Department and the Erie County Sheriff’s Office serving the area. The board was pleased with the data and
the amount of coverage they were receiving. While Krebs was unsure if they’d perform another analysis, he said the board would likely take a look when they review their contract with the Erie County Sheriff’s Office. In 1980, the Springville Police Department was disbanded when the village of Springville signed a contract with the Sheriff’s Office. The village spoke with the Sheriff’s Office in 2000, when they needed more patrolling, but found the addition of more officers to be cost prohibitive. The Board of Trustees then established a committee to look into the feasibility of bringing back the Springville Police Department, and on Sept. 1, 2001 it was officially reinstated. Since then, the Springville Police Department has logged more than 1,000 calls and writes about 500 traffic tickets a year. Springville is the only village in Erie County that has its own part-time police department plus dedicated street patrol from the Erie County Sheriff’s Office, Krebs said.

SGI Football Continued from front page
dissipate and revealed a sight as stupendous as the tree on Christmas morning: football is upon us! Set up on a practice field behind the Springville Griffith Institute high school stood a large group of local youths, gathered by 10 coaches and surrounded by the love of a game. They practice with precision and purpose, displaying a cohesiveness similar to the workings of a finely-tuned watch. Varsity and JV squads work nearly beside one another, which promotes teamwork between the players and coaches of both units. I was able to first speak with head coach Joseph Marvin, assistant coach Brian Kader and two volunteers, who together comprise the coaching staff for the Griffins JV team. Marvin, who played football at Buffalo State and has been coaching for nearly two decades, led a group of young men from the field after the morning session of a twicea-day practice. The coaches explained that their squad is comprised of youth from 8th through 10th grades, as the modified program has been dissolved. The impressively personable coaches outwardly show their excitement not only for the upcoming season, but also for the privilege they have to help mold these young men into punctual, responsible and accomplished members of our community. While the players rested and refueled in preparation for their second session of practice, I was refreshed by the sight of these kids— all of different races, age, and economic backgrounds—not only working together on the field, but also joking and supporting one another like family, while breaking for lunch. Few things like team sports can create such an unbreakable bond. I spoke to a dozen players that predictably chose to speak as a group rather than assert individuality, as unity is their strength. Although the description of the rigors of practice and the details of their schedule were enough to make this old man ache, these guys spoke of their work with a prideful joy. 65 players make up the JV and Varsity squads. At the onset of the second session, assistant coach Rob Valenti of the Varsity team took time out of practice to lend some insight into this year’s Springville Griffins team. Valenti, who is also a fulltime teacher at the high school, stated, “The team has very high expectations for this year.” The Griffs are coming off of a 7-1 season, in which they lost their final game in the playoffs
against Cheektowaga. Valenti went on to say that the Griffins will execute the run-oriented Triple Option offense that they have been improving upon since its installation in 2010. Last year, this team broke four long-standing school records for offense. Many returning starters to this year’s team are poised to have breakout seasons. Connor O’Brien is a 6’1”, 200 lb. QB who looks to lead the Griffins to a long, successful season. He is joined by Lexus Pollard, who transferred back from JFK high school to the greener pastures of Springville. Valenti was also excited to talk about senior Ian Baker who plays FB. He praised, “Ian was great for us last year, and I’m excited to see what he does this season.” Last year, Baker broke Mark Rendell’s record of five rushing TD’s in a game (set in 1996), and tied the single game TD record of 6, shared with Rick Rudolph in 1971 and Devin Kearns in 2014. When asked about safety in relation to youth football, Valenti made it clear how this important subject is constantly focused on among the teams. He noted, “All the coaches on staff participate in safety courses and must receive a certificate for the training.” He added that parents are encouraged to be knowledgeable of the same training, and to be vocal with any concerns or observations. “Much of the risk can be avoided by teaching proper tackling technique,” he said. “We make sure they know not
to lead with their heads.” It’s evident from speaking to the coaching staff that they work hard to mitigate risk, while encouraging these young men to enjoy the invaluable experiences afforded by the game. Led by Varsity head coach Eric Jantzi, there are 10 coaches in total—five of them unpaid volunteers who donate their time to this staple of American society. There are two open schedule opponents each year, and the Griffs chose to schedule opponents from a division higher than their own. Valenti stated, “They prefer to add tougher competition to the schedule, to test the team and bring the best out in themselves.” This year, the Griffins will play against two Section 6 AA teams when they host Frontier on Sept. 9 for the home opener, and then again when they drive down to Jamestown to face one of the area’s best football programs on Oct. 1. Your first chance to watch your hometown team is Sept. 2 at Brocton High school versus Fredonia/WB (Westfield/ Brocton). There are only seven regular season games, with four at home, so be sure to make plans to be out at the field as much as possible. These young men and their coaches are putting in hard work, and are poised to show the fruits of their labor. Come support our boys so that you, too, can witness them strive for greatness while learning the virtues of team, effort, and tradition. Go Griffs!
