By Stephanie Timblin
At the Sept. 13 Ellicottville Central School Board of Education meeting, Superintendent Mark Ward reported that the overall student population has climbed to the highest number in 13 years, with 651 students enrolled in grades Pre-K through 12. The Superintendent reported to the Board that the district is prepared to submit a final Annual Professional Performance Review to the New York State Education Department on Sept. 14. The plan will remain focused on four main concepts including: data driven decision making, a core curriculum that is aligned with standards, an atmosphere where bullying is unacceptable, and embraces diversity, with direct ties into the districts strategic plan, and a focus on technology, particularly embracing the school’s
Upcoming Events
Maybe you seek a reason to spend time outdoors in the early autumn. Perhaps you need warm clothing for the winter. Some may enjoy petting and learning about animals. If any of those sound appealing, you may want to visit an alpaca farm during National Alpaca Farm Days. Set for Sept. 24 and 25, the annual event lets everyone learn about the four-legged animals that produce some of the softest and warmest fleece in the world.

Village Board Passes Alarm Law Interviews Underway for DPW Vacancies
By Jann Wiswall
The Village of Ellicottville’s board passed Local Law No. 1 of 2016, which amends its previous Alarm Law, following a public hearing during its Sept. 12 monthly meeting. The law was amended to be consistent with the town of Ellicottville’s
Alarm Law, so the fire and police departments follow the same rules and procedures when it comes to home and property alarm systems. The top priority for the board currently is filling two vacancies in the department of public works.
Mayor Burrell said that 15 applications have been received and interviews are under way. “We have some excellent candidates with the required licenses,” he said. Burrell also recommended See Village Board page 10
Village Planning Board Local Businesses Plan Moves
By Caitlin Croft
Three new items were addressed in the Village Planning Board meeting on Tuesday, Sept. 13. Weed Ross Agency underwent a site plan review for a new commercial building located at 4 Monroe Street.
This current residence is zoned commercially and will be converted into a 1,600 sq. ft. insurance agency. There are no architectural changes to be made as to maintain continuity between the primary residential character of that end of the street. Building meets all
setbacks and redevelopment conditions. The only addressed issue is how on-site parking will be handled. Parking on-site when available for a commercial unit must always be accommodated. The Public See Village PB page 10

One of only four salt caves in North America, the Ellicottville Salt Cave and Halotherapy Spa, with its glowing tranquility and welcoming calm, is a must see on your list of travel destinations and bucket list adventures. The Ellicottville Salt Cave is Western New York’s first and only authentic European-built Himalayan Salt Cave. Tracy Draper, owner of the salt cave and spa, fell in love with the beauty and magic of salt caves while enjoying a year of rejuvenation in Asheville, NC. Draper was able to procure genuine salt from the Khewra mine, the second largest salt mine in the world in order to ensure authenticity to the overall experience for visitors. Salt therapy is also known as speleotherapy, and is said to engage all five senses with the healing power of nature to provide relief from ailments such as asthma, allergies, snoring, sinus, congestion, hay fever, Cystic Fibrosis, exhaustion, anxiety, depression, and stress. It may also aide in boosting the immune system and improve overall lung function.
New at the cave is Yoga Nidra. Led by instructor Lisa Yohon, Yoga Nidra is an ancient Indian tradition of deep relaxing state-of-being, or yogic sleep. Although Yoga Nidra can be practiced anywhere and anytime, the added benefit of salt inhalation will take your experience to the next level. Classes are available Sunday, Sept. 18 and Sept. 25; both at 10 a.m. at $60 per session. Yoga Nidra does not require any physical ability and would be a fantastic introduction to mind and body relaxation techniques. Participants should be fully dressed as the cave temperature ranges between 65 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit. As with all services at the cave, footwear will be removed at the door and replaced with paper booties provided in order to protect both the client and the salt while walking on the nearly four perfectly groomed inches of salt on the cave floor. The intention to induce full-body relaxation and a deep meditative state of consciousness during the practice of Yoga Nidra is accompanied by developing a “san kalpa.” San kalpa is classically defined as a conception or idea or notion
formed in the heart or mind, a solemn vow or determination to perform, desire, definite intention, volition or will. This mother of three particularly enjoyed the opportunity to relax with no interruption amongst other like-minded individuals. Onehour of pure silence with the healing benefits of the natural salt coursing through my veins was priceless. I did have an opportunity to chat with other class participants immediately following my session, and I enjoyed the very different experiences that each expressed. The Ellicottville Salt Cave is open six days each week, and closed on Tuesdays. The extensive retail selection of lamps, energy balls, soaps, and so much more is genuinely affordably priced and will definitely be a gift-giving hit for any hard-to-buy-for friend or family member, along with numerous ideas to treat yourself to mind and body balance. You can check out the many services available at www. ellicottvillesaltcave.com or by calling (716) 699-2068. Namaste!

Other scoring came from senior Austin Whitmer (31and 4-yard runs). Junior quarterback Brock Blecha was a perfect 5-for 5 passing for 137 yards with TD tosses to Chudy and junior Deric Leiper (29 yards) while throwing for a pair of 2-point conversions (Chudy and junior tight end Sam Erickson) and kicking another. “It was great game and a good team effort.

Superintendent Ward has met with district performing arts consultant John Wilder to discuss the upcoming theater season. With the newlyremodeled auditorium, and at the recommendation of students, the district will offer both the traditional drama club musical, along with a middle school performance later in the year. Wilder has also recommended that the district purchase a new piano for the program, as the school is presently utilizing a 53-yearold piano. The board briefly discussed leasing as an option, which has been successful for the district at other occasions, including the lease of a French horn and other band equipment. The budget already included $5,000 for the purchase of onstage speakers to aide performers in hearing themselves. Ward and Wilder will make further recommendations at a later date. Connie Poulin, Elementary Principal/CSE-CPSE Chairperson provided the Board with a Principal’s Report. Poulin conducted opening day and week assemblies for students in grades K through 6 that included special introductions for new students, a Principal’s Challenge update,
audience participation courtesy rules, cafeteria procedures, school bus rules and safety, fire drills/safety drills, and attendance and being on time. The principal’s challenge for the 2016/17 academic year is a reminder to “look someone in the eye when speaking to them, and ensuring the use of their name during conversation.” Board members briefly discussed new tracking requirements and deliver option for continuing education requirements for all professional certificate holders, as well as proposed policies No. 5683 Fire and Emergency Drills, Bomb Threats, and Bus Emergency Drills, and No. 5681 School Safety Plan.

Little Eagles and Panthers Split Victories
By Stephanie Timblin
The Ellicottville Little Eagles and the Franklinville Panthers split victories in their little league matches held Sunday, Sept. 11 in Franklinville. The Pee Wee Little Eagles returned to the field after a previous week’s loss to triumph over the Panthers in a 21-0 battle. Head coach Mark Chudy said, “After a tough loss last week, the pee wee squad had a great week of practice and Sunday the kids were ready. The Little Eagles beat a good Franklinville team.” Touchdowns were recorded by Carter Smith, Hunter Smith, and Reese Benjamin. Extra points were run in by Owen Chudy, Hunter Smith and David Thompson. In a touching opening ceremony, the teams joined each other on the field during the Star Spangled Banner shoulder-to-shoulder in memory of the tragic events of Sept. 11, 2001. These young men and women will join together as one team when entering high school
athletics as the FranklinvilleEllicottville Titans. Dropping to 3-1 on the season, the Midget Little Eagles were unable to mount a comeback to lose the battle in an exciting back and forth game 13-6. Head coach Tim Grinols said, “We lost a close one to Franklinville. We will
get back to working hard and work on getting a win for the next game. Franklinville Panthers played a very good game.” The Eagles will face the Seneca Sachems on Saturday, Sept. 17 in Irving with a 1:30 p.m. kickoff.

Thirty days, 30 paintings. That’s what artist Robin Zefers Clark, owner of Brookside Studio, has set out to do in the month of September. The international artists’ event challenges artists to create 30 unique paintings in 30 days, a feat Clark said isn’t always easy. Clark heard of the challenge while listening to the Artist Helping Artist podcast, hosted by Leslie Saeta. With more than 1,000 artists participating around the world, Clark decided to throw her hat in the ring, pushing herself a little bit farther. “I’m challenging myself to do my paintings plein air … which is on location,” Clark said. “A lot of times I’m in the studio … this is a little different.” Since starting the challenge, Clark has painted in Otto, Ellicottville and Allegany State Park, depicting landscapes of the area. Her first painting was done outside of her studio, allowing her to run back inside if there is something she was missing. Clark said it was a little bit of a trial run, but she has since packed a bag with everything she needs. Along with her paints and brushes, Clark brings an easel and umbrella. “The umbrella isn’t for me … it’s so the sun isn’t bright on my painting and messing with the colors,” Clark explained. “The sun is strong, but it hasn’t been that bad … I think because I’m concentrating on my painting.” Clark has been enjoying her challenge, both for her painting skills and the atmosphere of being on location. While she tries to scope locations beforehand, Clark said she often finds herself exploring other locations. One day she set out to a location, but found the lighting to be off, so she moved to an old cemetery, that was surrounded by a corn field limiting her view. “It’s fun to change the location … go places I haven’t
seen,” Clark said. “The nice thing is every location has its own smells and sounds, so it’s different every time. And I like meeting people, talking to people who paint or stop by to see what I’m doing.” Clark is using oils and acrylics, two mediums she’s out of touch with. Although she has her master’s degree in oils, Clark mainly uses watercolors at Brookside Studio. Pictures of the paintings she creates are uploaded to her blog, her Facebook page and the podcasts’ blog, where people can follow the challenge. “Thirty paintings is a lot … but I’m not expecting to hit a wall, because I’m having fun with it,” Clark said. “This is a really great challenge. It’s getting me outside going to see places and meeting people.” With more than half her paintings done, Clark is pushing herself a little more, with a plan to use her grandfather’s paintbrushes and paints. Her grandfather was an artist and got Clark into painting, so she’s hoping to honor him by using his brushes she found while cleaning. “I remember sitting in his Hudson car, it was cold and there was a painting on the steering wheel … you could
smell the turpentine in the car and there were paint smudges all over the car,” Clark remembered. “I haven’t picked up oils since 1982 … so this will be a good challenge.” After completing the challenge, the retired art teacher will showcase her paintings at art shows and her upcoming open house. Along with Hog-Shed Pottery Studio, Clark will host the East Otto Country Holiday Open House Nov. 5-6, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Clark will put her paintings up for sale after the challenge is completed. Normally, Brookside Studios has regular hours, but during Clark’s 30 in 30 challenge, customers should call her and set up an appointment. In addition to the watercolor prints, Clark also accepts commissioned paintings and pencil sketches, everything from family portraits to portraits of dogs. For more information on Brookside Studios, or to follow Clark’s challenge, visit her online at www.BrooksideStudios.com or on Facebook at Brookside Studio Watercolors. To set up an appointment, call 716-7135359.

8 Reasons You Are Struggling To Lose Weight
ECS 9th grader Adrian DeOrbe competed in the 8 in the Rough trail run at Sprague Brook Park last weekend. At 13 years old, DeOrbe was the youngest participant in this technical 8.7 mile race, his first serious trail run. With a finishing time of 1:17:10, DeOrbe placed first in the 19 and under age group, and 32nd overall, out of 130 participants. By Kim Duke NETA & AAFA Cer tified Trainer
1. You skip breakfast. After a seven to eight hour fast, you need energy. Food is fuel and by eating breakfast, your focus will improve and so will your metabolism. Make sure to include protein in your meal to keep you satisfied longer. 2. You eat healthy, but too much. Choosing healthy, whole foods is always my first choice in good nutrition. Moderation is the key. I love avocados, but eating a whole
one on a daily basis will add up to too many calories. Keep your portions in check. 3. You don’t eat enough veggies. I have so many clients that say straight up, they do not like veggies. Veggies are an excellent source of fiber and nutrient dense. Plus, they are typically low in calories. 4. You don’t sleep enough at night. I cannot stress this enough. Not getting enough shut-eye at night can increase your appetite. It also can affect recover, energy and focus. Try to get at least seven hours of sleep. 5. Your focus is on cardio. Cardio will help you burn calories, but it doesn’t help shape your body, build muscle or improve definition. Strength training will build muscle and improve metabolism. 6. You aren’t eating enough. Some times I am shocked to see how little my clients actually eat in their quest for a thinner physique. Not eating will mess with your metabolism, inhibit
muscle growth and can lead to overeating at times because you are beyond hungry. I recommend spacing meals and keeping a food journal to keep an eye on your diet. 7. You love condiments. Throughout the day, the “extras” that you add to your meals could be the reason you are not seeing results. The creamer in your coffee, cheese in your omelet, dressing, bacon bits, even ketchup- all of these add extra calories to your day. Try almond or coconut milk for your coffee, salsa on your eggs, and balsamic vinegar as dressing for your salad. 8. You aren’t prepared. Plan. Prep. And be prepared. Sunday is my prep day. It’s when I shop and prepare for the week. I need to have a healthy lunch and healthy snacks ready to go. If I do not do this, I find I will grab whatever is easy and that is typically not as healthy. It seems like a daunting task, but becomes routine in no time.

farms for the free weekend event to introduce them to the animals and sell items made from the ďŹ ber. An alpaca farm owner for 14 years, Helen Herman usually sees 100 to 300 visitors during the weekend event at Sugartown Farms, a business she co-owns with her husband, Timm Herman, in Ellicottville. They have participated in the event for at least six years and plan to accept guests from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days. Located at 6277 Sugartown Road, their farm offers alpaca sweaters, mittens, gloves, socks, hats and blankets. Many ďŹ nd the eece a softer and more comfortable alternative to wool because it does not itch. “It’s a natural ďŹ ber and it’s a luxury ďŹ ber,â€? Herman said. “It’s very soft.â€? Herman has noticed those who venture to the farms ďŹ nd the animals enchanting. “Visitors are surprised at how large their eyes are,â€? she said. “They are very cute-looking.â€? Smaller than llamas, alpacas are categorized in the Suri breed or the Huacaya breed. They graze in herds in southern Peru, northern Bolivia, Ecuador and northern Chile. A camelid species that originated in the Andes Mountains, the alpaca can weigh from 106 to 185 pounds when fully grown. Babies, known as crias, weigh 15 to 18 pounds at birth. The mother usually gives birth to a single cria. Herman estimated she has 12 crias. Many who visit her farm ďŹ nd the alpaca’s gentle nature makes it an ideal animal for petting. Other local farms participating in this year’s event include A Slice of Heaven Alpacas at 11144 Pope Road in Randolph, Mager Mountain Alpacas at 69 Mountain View Drive in Little Valley, BearKat Alpacas at 4685 Route 98 in Humphrey, Cozy Cabin Alpaca Farm at 9254 Route 353 in Gowanda and Woodside Farm Alpacas at 12858 Gowanda State Road in Lawtons.

Peanuts Worldwide partner and one of the top 10 corn mazes in the United States. The designation as “one of the most sincere pumpkin patches in America,” is part of a national celebration of the 50th anniversary of the beloved animated film, It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. As an official partner, this year’s corn maze has a Peanuts theme, along with the WYRKFM Country 106.5 logo, which sponsors the maze. While navigating the maze, guests will be invited to play Peanuts Bingo. Each participant will get a Bingo card, and throughout the maze, there will be five stations with an icon to be scratched off the card. At the end of the maze, those who got Bingo can enter their card for a chance to win a trip for four to Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park, CA.
Want even more Peanuts? Peanuts characters will be visiting Pumpkinville throughout the season, but the official corporate Snoopy character will be at the farm on Saturday, Sept. 24 and Saturday, Oct. 1. There will be backgrounds set up so you can have your photos taken with the characters, and visitors will have the opportunity to purchase tons of Peanuts branded merchandise celebrating the anniversary. A new attraction premieres this year as well. Welcome the Pumpkinville Express, a seven-minute train ride that will take riders around a portion of the farm. A track and a loading dock were built to accommodate the train. The loading dock has a drop off area for strollers and picnic tables. Looking for your old

‘My Grandmother Asked me to Tell You She’s Sorry’ by Fredrik Backman
Elsa is seven years old and different. Her grandmother is seventy-seven years old and crazy—as in standing-on-thebalcony-firing-paintball-guns-at-strangers crazy. She is also Elsa’s best, and only, friend. At night Elsa takes refuge in her grandmother’s stories, where everybody is different and nobody needs to be normal. When Elsa’s grandmother dies and leaves behind a series of letters apologizing to people she has wronged, Elsa’s greatest adventure begins. Her grandmother’s instructions lead her to an apartment building full of drunks, monsters, attack dogs, and old crones but also to the truth about fairy tales and kingdoms and a grandmother like no other. This book is currently available in book format and audio book at the Ellicottville Memorial Library. Don’t forget, you can access over 14,400 eBooks and eAudiobooks using your library card!

Slow Local Primary Day Yields Few Surprises
By Jann Wiswall
Four registered Reform Party voters turned out to the polls on Tuesday, Sept. 13 to cast their votes for Senator Catharine Young. Young, who is running unopposed for another term as District 57’s NY State Senator, also is the endorsed candidate for the Republican, Conservative and Independence parties. Please note that all results are unofficial pending certification by the Cattaraugus County Board of Elections. Republican M. Mark Howden beat William J. Gabler to earn the Conservative Party endorsement for County Judge by a vote of 120-46. Howden has no remaining opposition, so will be the only candidate on the November ballot. Salamanca voters opted for
Democrat Joel E. Talbot (264 votes) as their candidate for Salamanca Mayor. Talbot was running against Michael R. Smith (189 votes) and Ronald S. Ball (95 votes). Both Smith and Ball were running on the Republican ticket as well. Smith beat Ball by 110-43 in that contest. Salamanca also held primary elections for Alderman in Wards 1, 2 and 4. John A. Hill beat Laurie A. Hunt for the Democratic slot in Ward 1 (6440), Kisun Devon Peters-Diaz beat Dennis E. Nelson 6753 in the Ward 2 Democratic contest and Timothy J. Flanigan bested Dianne M. Ball for the Republican slot (41-10) in Ward 2. In Ward 4, Edward J. Dry had 61 votes to Sandra L. Magiera’s 60 votes for Democratic Alderman.
a plan to ensure that the department always has employees who can substitute for each other when there are vacancies or absences. The plan would encourage and motivate DPW employees to take water and sewer operation licensing courses by funding course fees and providing financial incentives for those who pass their license exams. Financial incentives also would be contingent on keeping their licenses upto-date through continuing education. “Ensuring that we have people who are dual-qualified and cross-trained in water and sewer operation is just good business,” Burrell said. “Tying licenses to hourly rate increases will motivate staff to get and keep their licensing, and will protect the department from service interruption for the long-term.” Burrell said that, already, three employees are taking D and C water licensing courses this week. Two others will be going for their B licenses in October. The board approved the salary incentive and continuing education measures. Burrell also reported on a long list of meetings attended, actions taken and tasks completed over the last month. Among them, he has: talked with a lighting expert about improving outdoor holiday lighting for the upcoming Christmas season; been asked to join the board of the WNY Southtowns Scenic Byways organization; signed a contract with the new village attorney; resigned his Ellicottville-Great Valley Trail board membership; and recommended Joe Nosbisch to complete departing ZBA members Christina Barlow’s term. He asked the board to approve his recommendation to appoint John Northrup to
take his place on the EVGV Trail board. He also reported that the Village’s sales tax revenues for second quarter 2016 are down 9.71 percent (more than $8K) from last year’s revenues during the same time period. The board is considering amendments to two local laws and set public hearings for the October meeting. One amendment is to strengthen the village’s leash law. The other is to repeal Local Law No. 1 of 2014, which made Hughey Alley one way. Two village board members (Patra Lowes and Sherman Wilkins) are opposed to repealing that law, but the proposal to hold a public hearing passed by a 3-2 vote. Burrell also asked the board to fund an audit by a certified CPA of the village Justice Court. The board approved a motion to do so and authorized Burrell to obtain bids. Department Reports Engineering department head Mike Smith reported that the contractor is working on the final punch list for the waste water treatment plant project and the electrical contractor has requested another time extension of two weeks to complete its task list. The board approved the extension. Smith also reported that a noise complaint from a resident on Donlen Drive is being addressed. Decibel readings have been taken and are within an acceptable range. However, there may be a frequency issue and Smith is checking with the manufacturer to see what can be done. There may be other steps that can be taken, as well. Wilkins, who is in charge of monitoring the condition of village sidewalks, noted that a sidewalk on Madison Street meets a sidewalk along Washington Street but does not go all the way to the road. He said that a path over the lawn is usually plowed during the
Dry, however, was defeated by William A. Taylor for the Republican spot on the November ballot by a vote of 15-12. And, Salamanca voters elected Edward Gimbrone, Karen L. Gimbrone, Laurie A. Hunt and Jeffrey L. Pond, Sr. to the County Democratic Committee. In Olean, John J. Crawford beat Otto Tertinek 3-1 in his bid to appear on the Independence line on the November ballot for Alderman of Ward 5. And in East Otto, Republican voters put William B. Spors on the November ballot over Angela J. Sherman 45-38 to run for a one-year vacancy on the town council. Election day is Tuesday, November 8.

in new business was another sign approval for the Looney Rooms Bed and Breakfast, located on Rockwell which has met all village standards and was approved. The public hearing for 49 Washington Sreet, the conversion of the former Kwik Fill to financial institution, was executed along with site plan, architectural review and special use permit in the Sept. 13 meeting. An ATM kiosk on the west side of the parking lot and its flow of traffic was the main issue addressed previously. The final decision will provide safe and adequate access, turning radius and parking spaces as ensured. Site plan was approved. The special use permit was also approved, along with the architectural review pending the following conditions are met: landscaping to remain and

Village Board
Village PB Hearing on PB-2016-10 is set for the Oct. 11 meeting with the condition on-site parking must be clarified prior to Sept. 27. Kwik Fill gas station, located at 1 E. Washington Street, has proposed a new vinyl wrap for their gas pump canopy. The initial proposal included three “K” Kwik Fill logos and one Driving America (slogan) graphic. This was adjusted according to planning board requests. The final decision is there will be one 24 sq. ft. “K” Kwik Fill logo on the new green wrap, which will face Washington Street, pending the conditions that other non-approved signage will be removed and the outside is cleaned up. Planning board deemed only the logo portion as the sign and the green portion of the wrap as the façade color. Last

winter, which ruins the lawn. He suggested that the board budget next year for that short sidewalk extension. The board agreed. Board Member Greg Cappelli said that the new security system for the village park has been delivered and that Time Warner Cable is scheduled to install underground wiring to connect the system within the next few weeks. A bonus benefit to the security system, Cappelli said, is that the park will be wired for WiFi, providing internet connections to anyone visiting the park, as well as to the park program director and others. Village Clerk Mary Klahn reported that all data is being entered into the new software system the town and village have purchased and, so far, systems are transitioning well. However, data for water, sewer and refuse billing is still in process. Klahn expressed some concern that it may not be fully tested in time for October quarterly billing. Burrell suggested that, if it’s not up to Klahn’s standards, she should use the old system in October to generate the invoices. The board approved submitted plans for the Christmas Stroll and Christmas in Ellicottville. Fall Festival plans have not yet been submitted, however, and the event occurs before the next regular board meeting. Burrell said that a special meeting will need to be scheduled to approve the appointment of the two new DPW employees, so Fall Festival plans can be approved then. That meeting was scheduled for Tuesday, Sept. 27 at 8 a.m. The next regular meeting date of the board falls on a holiday (Columbus Day), so it has been rescheduled for Monday, Oct. 17 at 6 p.m. in the town hall.

Explore ‘Little Ireland’ Sept. 17 Join park staff for a free, family-friendly hike on Saturday, Sept. 17. Come join us for a hike into the distant past, to a place known as “Little Ireland,” a once settled hollow, located in the park nearby the Hamlet of Limestone NY. In 1864, 13 families migrated from County Clare, Ireland and settled in this area. These families lived in this small community for over 50
years, with the last residents departing around 1918. All that remains now are rock walls, cellar holes, some of their water supply springs, beautiful forest, and an eerie feeling of a place long forgotten by time. It is a hike of moderate difficulty. Hikers will experience varied terrain that may include areas that are rugged and wet, with some steep ascends and descends. This trek will take a few
hours to see all this area has to offer. Hikers will meet on Sept. 17, at 10 a.m. at the site of Thunder Rocks, off Limestone run in the park. Good comfortable hiking shoes, bug spray and drinking water are recommended. Registration is not required. For more information, visit the Allegany State Park Facebook page or contact Katie Vecellio at (716) 354-9101 ext. 236.

With the recent opening of the Springville Griffith Institute’s 2016-2017 school year, a look back 150 years would find school a much different place. Founded in 1827 and opened for classes in 1830, the Springville Academy was the first high school in Erie County. It was a financial boom for Springville in the early days— not only did it create jobs for teachers, it also brought in many students from across western New York. These students boarded with

County Plow Contract Talks at Impasse
Mortons Corners Cemetery Ownership Transferred to Town of Concord
By Jennie Acklin
At the Sept. 8 Town of Concord Board meeting, Highway Superintendent Denny Dains presented his monthly report, and reminded the community that milling is underway on Route 39 between Routes 75 and 62. According to Dains, “This allows the town highway department the advantage of receiving asphalt millings for road repairs and saves on the cost of purchasing shoulder materials.” He outlined several other projects that have taken place during the last month, and outlined additional planned projects. The largest concern presented during his report was the status of the county plow contract negotiations. After three meetings between the negotiating committee and Erie County, the discussions are at an impasse. The percent

The Village of Springville Board of Trustees introduced and swore in Nick Budney as the new Officer in Charge for the Village, replacing outgoing Chief John Fox at its Monday, Sept. 12 meeting. “The Board made a great choice in choosing Nick Budney as my replacement,” said Fox. “I have all the confidence in the world that Nick will serve the board and residents of Springville in an exceptional manner.” Fox came to Springville after serving 25 years reaching the rank of Sergeant with the Village of Blasdell followed by 13 years serving as Sergeant with the Erie County Sherriff Department. In 2001 he helped to create the part-time Police Office in the Village of Springville to supplement the Erie County Sheriff Department. “I want to thank the Village Board for giving me this opportunity to serve the residents in a different capacity,” said Budney who recently returned as an officer
after previously serving in Springville. “I look forward to working with each one of you on solving the problems of Springville.” Budney, in his 16th year of public service, started in the City of Buffalo, worked for the Erie County Sheriffs office (Springville area for majority) and presently for the Town of Hamburg Police Department, the last seven years as a Lieutenant. A graduate of the FBI National Academy, Budney has a little over five years part-time combined experience for the Village of Springville Police since 2005, with a break in between before his return in March. Two additional part-time officers were approved by the board, Paul Randall and Timothy Colling, officers with the Village of Hamburg. The department still has one parttime position available to fill.

Springville Falls Short, Loses by 1 to Frontier By Indrek Kongat s
Go Griffins!
The Griffins dropped a fourth quarter barn burner to Hamburg’s Frontier HS last Friday. After an exciting first half and solid defense in the third quarter, all heck broke loose in the final quarter of the game as Frontier put 13 points on the score board to Springville’s 12. Springville drew first blood with a first quarter touchdown and looked to add another at the end of the first when CB Connor O’Brien picked off a pass from Frontier’s QB Dylan Kmitch on Frontier’s 30yard line. At the beginning of the second quarter, Springville forced another Frontier turnover on Frontier’s 20-yard line, but after the change of

possession, Griffs No. 24, Seth Dash, was injured on what looked like a great run. The ball was jarred loose and Frontier recovered on their 15-yard line. The half ended with a game-tying touchdown by Frontier as they marched down the field completing a fourth-and-5 play for a first down and a run into the end zone by Kmitch. The game could have gone either way as the Griffs looked determined to pull it out in the fourth. Springville is now 1-1 overall with a 1-0 league record. The Frontier game was a non-conference game. The next Griffins football game is at home, a conference league game vs. Pioneer on Friday, Sept. 16 at 7 p.m.

Coaches’ Corner Varsity Football, coach Eric Jantzi, assistant coach Rob Valenti The varsity football team lost a heartbreaker 20-19 on Friday night. In a hard fought nonleague game against a class AA large school, Springville surrendered the game winning touchdown with 13 seconds left in the contest. For the Griffins, it was the story of missed opportunities and turnovers. GI rushed for over 400 yards...easily doubling Frontier’s offensive output, but turned the ball over five times on the night. Even after being sidelined for most of the 1st half, Ian Baker had 19 carries for 175 yards and a touchdown. Connor O’Brien, the senior quarterback, added two rushing touchdowns of his own. The Griffins will host Pioneer this Friday night in a battle of two teams for first place in the division. Cross Country, coach Chad Russell, assistant coach Steven Dillsworth Springville Girls ranked in top 10 in small schools in WNY The girls cross country team took third place at the West Seneca West Invitational, on Sept.10. Elle Russell lead the team by taking third place overall out of over 100 runners from 15 schools. Morgan Lukert, Gwen Fruehauf, Sonya Krezmein ran as a tight pack. Up and coming Jaime Dickinson, Miya Domes and Grace Wojtkowiak raced very well for the varsity team, helping the team receive a tropy for their efforts. The boys team took third place in the freshman/sophomore race. Brett Russell finished first for the team, taking third out of 133 racers. Zack Peterman, Nathan Myers, Elliot Emley, Justin Paler and Luke Waterman ran in a tight pack to help the team take the highest place at a major invitational than they have in the last 10 years. Girls Varsity Volleyball, coach Kristin Hughey The Springville girls varsity volleyball team suffered a disappointing loss against Alden on Friday night, 0-3. Sydney Rosati dug up fierce serves from Alden’s team. Rosati’s defensive expertise kept her team alive during the match. Middle hitter Caroline Roy played tough defense at the net, and had 3 kills. Setters Meadow Wittman and Jessica Roggie took command of their team’s offense and set up Lexi Sopko and Devyn Rowe for 6 kills each. The Griffs played tough together and showed no sign of giving up! Despite the loss, the girls came out better individual players and a stronger team. We look forward to going up against Alden again in October. Girls Varsity Tennis, coach Frank Noeson The Lady Griffins tennis team improved to 2 and 0 Friday with their first division win against Tonawanda by a score of 4-1. Winning for the Lady Griffs were all three singles players: Kaylee Timmel, Lily Vanuga, and Kamryn Keys, and the doubles team of Jamie Slotman and Lexi Tyger. JV Football, coach Joseph Marvin Game 1 stats Loss to Fredonia by a score of 32-46. Many new starters on both sides of the ball for this first game. While the defense played poorly the team was led in tackles by safety Jackson Richert with 15, Middle linebacker Nick Game 2 offensive stats 10-0 victory over Frontier. Defense gave up just 160 yards of total offense. Outstanding individual performances were had by middle linebacker Nick Pfarner with 10 tackles, defensive tackle Alex Francisco had nine tackles and an interception. Nose tackle Wayne Smith had eight tackles, a sack and pressured the quarterback on two interceptions. Linebacker Bryson Black had seven tackles and an interception, and Jake Ciesinski had five tackles, many of which were solo tackles. Girls Modified Soccer, coach Alicia Dziak The girls modified soccer team won their first scrimmage of the season on Monday against North Collins in a 3-0 victory. The game was tied at 0 at the half, but the Lady Griffs got tough in the second half, scoring three goals. Dru Robinson scored the first one, followed by two goals from Shay Ellis. Logan Lukert and Sarah O’Neal split time in the goal and both did a fantastic job making their debuts in this position. The team was also anchored by Ava Dziak, Mabel Robinson and Madalynn Schwanekamp in the back, with Jackie Roggie, Caity Hazen and Brooke Walker playing strong up front. The girls face off against East Aurora on Monday, Sept. 19 for their first game of the season.

Three Teams Strive for the Best By Alicia Dziak
With the fall sports season underway, three levels of SGI girls’ volleyball are hitting their way through another successful season. ModiďŹ ed The modiďŹ ed squad is coached by Stephanie Sullivan, a ďŹ fth grade teacher at Springville Elementary, who has been coaching for seven years. This youngest volleyball team has a roster of 15 girls— seven returning eighth graders, ďŹ ve new eighth graders and three seventh graders. While they haven’t had a game yet, the girls have been busy getting ready for the season ahead. “We haven’t had a game yet and practice daily,â€? Sullivan said. “Eden was our only loss last year so this year we are coming back with a vengeance! Our schedule has changed a bit so Iroquois is new this year. We also play Eden, Holland, JFK, and Pioneer.â€? As far as team goals for the season? “I want the girls to experience a true love for the game,â€? Sullivan stated. “It’s such a great feeling working together as a team out on the court.â€? She added that “instilling communication skills, a desire to want to do your best, and maintaining focus are all goals (serving over hand too! ) this year.â€? Sullivan hopes her team will learn to leave everything out on the court. “This is the ďŹ rst year for many girls to play an organized sport,â€? she said. “It’s hard to put yourself out there, especially when you’re in 7th and 8th grade! Not worrying about what you look like and making mistakes in front of others is hard to overcome. So is consistently serving over the net!â€? Among the team’s key players, “Jill Roggie was nominated by the girls on the team as one of our captains this year. She has great leadership qualities and is always helping guide players both on and off the court. Her speed and communication is why she will be a key player this year. Rachel Stressinger was also nominated as a captain for our team. Her focus and drive sets a high expectation for our team this year. Marie Emerling and Olivia Schindler are expected to be strong at the net while Melanie Barry, Rebecca Kreitzbender and Kailea Sullivan provide accurate passing. Meghan Rehrauer and Katelyn Mesch will be strong servers.â€? The modiďŹ ed girls’ ďŹ rst game is against Pioneer on Sept. 24. JV Coach Bob Gainey, a PE teacher at Springville Elementary, leads the JV girls.

throughout the night and not just passing the ball over the net.â€? The JV girls face Cleveland Hill on Friday, Sept. 16 and Eden on Thursday, Sept. 22. Varsity SGI’s Varsity squad is made up of 11 girlsâ€”ďŹ ve seniors, three juniors and three sophomores. Only three are returning starters. “Our goal (this season) is to ďŹ nish in the top three of Class B2 schools,â€? said coach Kristin Hughey, an SGI middle school science teacher who’s in her 12th year coaching Varsity volleyball. Hughey lists Caroline Roy, a strong offensive hitter who leads in blocking stats, Sydney Rosati, a key defensive player, and Meadow Wittman, a setter who is new to varsity, as key players on this season’s team. The girls will face new teams this year as SGI is now a B2 school. “We’re not familiar with many of the teams on our schedule this season,â€? Hughey explained. “Eden is the exception. We lost to them in playoffs last year...Eden when on to win states! They should be our toughest competition this season.â€? Hughey sees the season’s biggest challenge as building conďŹ dence. “There is different talent on our team this year with mixed levels of experience. We need to learn to play together and capitalize on our team strengths instead of relying on individuals,â€? she said. The Varsity Lady Griffs currently hold a 1-1 record. Next games include Cleve Hill on Friday, Sept. 16 and Holland on Sept. 20.

“Our goals for this season are to improve each and every day, become a closer knit group as the season progresses, and take pride in the effort and energy level we bring during our matches,â€? explained Gainey, who is in his 7th year coaching at this level. The roster is made up of 12 girls— two 8th graders, six freshman and four sophomores, who are the only veterans to JV. Gainey lists key players as Morgan Christ, Emily Ehlers, Abby Stressinger, Sara Ehlers, and Alyssa Hunter. “All of these girls bring a number of different skills to the table,â€? he said. “Morgan is an excellent front row player whose very creative around the net and is one of our best communicators. Emily is setting for us this year and she has a great pair of hands. She does an excellent job of passing out of the back row and she sets up her hitters nicely at the net. Abby is a very steady player from all areas of the oor. She’s able to hit from both spots on the oor and is one of the best passers on the team. Sara is an 8th grader, but you would never know it. She has been serving the ball at a high level in critical junctures of our matches and is a powerful outside hitter at the net. Lastly, Alyssa is our second setter and she is a great communicator on the oor. She’s a solid player no matter where she is on the court.â€? Gainey noted that the team has had a very challenging schedule to start the season. “Currently we are 3-0 and have faced very stiff competition from Ellicottville and Alden,â€? he said. “I think every opponent poses different obstacles on a nightly basis; just looking ahead, we have Alden, Eden, and Ellicottville so those will be good tests for our team.â€? And what does Gainey see as his team’s improvement areas? “Our biggest challenges right now would be consistency with passing out of the back row,â€? he stated. “It’s something we are fully capable of being very good at but it’s been inconsistent to start the season (though I’m very conďŹ dent we will ďŹ x this.) Also, consistently getting our hitters involved

Proposed Ashford Budget Maintains Tax Levy By Dave Dahl
For the third consecutive year, Town of Ashford residents may find no increase in the town government’s tax levy. The Town Board proposed a 2017 budget Monday night that keeps the tax levy, the amount collected in property taxes, at $435,360. Holding the levy at that amount poses a challenge because the town’s taxexempt value is 87.09 percent, which is more than any other town in the state, said William King, budget officer. With the state-owned West Valley Demonstration Project, a nuclear energy site, occupying 84.5 percent of that value, officials find it difficult to prepare a budget each year. “Our assemblyman, state senator and governor should be ashamed that they’re allowing a town in the state of New York to be affected that
way,” King said afterward. Supervisor Charles Davis emphasized the nuclear energy site places the town in a unique situation. “We’re not treated like any other Department of Energy site in the country,” he said afterward. The $1,834,122 spending plan includes $526,947 in the general fund and $1,290,550 in the highway fund. Proposed spending would rise from $1,803,474. Officials expect to announce tentative tax rates next month. “We can’t propose tax rates yet because there might be changes,” Davis said. From the tax levy, $423,610 would go toward the highway fund while none would be used for the general fund. The budget also contains a proposed revenue jump from $1,368,114 to $1,398,763. In another matter, Highway Superintendent Tim Engels
announced that chip-andstone work will continue on Mule Avenue and Henrietta and Heinz roads. Board members also reappointed Michael Gerwitz to a five-year term on the Assessment Review Board. The Town Board, which normally meets on the second Wednesday night of each month, met Monday night because some officials planned to attend the National Cleanup Conference from Tuesday to Thursday in Alexandria, VA, where a discussion of the West Valley Demonstration Project will occur. As a result of the change, Councilmen John Pfeffer and Richard Bernstein were absent because they participated in emergency medical technician training. The next Ashford Town Board meeting will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 12.

Art’s Cafe / Green Roof Hard Hat Tour Springville Center for the Arts will host a Hard Hat Tour of the construction project at 5 East Main Street on Saturday, October 1 at 10am. The project centers around Art’s Cafe, a counter service coffee shop type establishment with a small performance space, artwork sales, workshop, artist residencies and a publicly accessible green roof. The green roof, a key part of the tour, was installed last year by thirty-two trained volunteers and is set up as a demonstration project to show the different approaches to green roof technology. Some portions look more like traditional gardens. One section contains raised beds. Other areas include drought tolerant plants designed to survive in a harsh rooftop environment with little maintenance. When the Center acquired the property the roof had collapsed into the basement and neighboring buildings and Main Street traffic were
threatened. The Center worked with Village, County and State Governments to free the property from back taxes and stabilize the structure. The redevelopment hit a snag with the discovery of asbestos and foundation issues. Work is slated to restart this fall with a projected opening date of Summer 2017. An online survey is posted at Survey. ArtsCafeSpringville.com to provide guidance on the food service portion of the project. The tour includes information on the history of
the building, a look at how the green roof is designed, and the future plans for the interior spaces. Anyone may attend the tour but it does require the use of stairs. Refreshments will be provided. Interested parties should RSVP to scaseth@ gmail.com or by calling 716592-9038. Photo: Volunteers from M&T Bank and the United Way Day of Caring recently worked on the green roof at 5 East Main Street.

Farm in Peace: Practice Season
By Ashlee O akley
Once you see the giant peace sign decorating the front of a shining white barn, you will know you’re in the right place. Drive past the house with alpacas on the shutters and whimsical window-pane art hanging in the lawn, and meet CJ and Paula Jeanniton. Along with their happy little boys, Charlie and Joey, the Jeannitons have an easygoing, contagiously cheerful way about them, and are prepared to talk with humble excitement about their ever-growing farm. One gets the impression that they have grasped the dream to do what they love, and love what they do. The couple met at Alfred State University, and, between the two of them, they have earned many degrees and certifications in science, veterinarian assistance, engineering, and other areas. Their combined, extensive education is without question incredibly helpful in the implementation of their self-proclaimed “experimental” homestead farm— an experiment which started when they moved from Newark Valley, NY back to Paula’s hometown, Collins, in October 2015, which has bloomed gorgeously at their home on this New York state highway, Route 39. You can sense the quiet contentment in this place as you travel uphill through their fields, a playful kitten weaving in and out of sight, wide varieties of produce and sunflowers as far as you can see, with bees busily pollinating the gardens, and a perfect country view from the top of the rise, which is occupied by an enormous and perfect peace sign, made entirely of sunflowers. Their produce is all organic, with a wide variety of attractive and healthy stock in the stand in front of their house— carrots, kale, leeks, eggplant, peppers, turnips, tomatoes, yellow squash, onions, small
pumpkins and gourds, as well as sunflowers are all available right now, for your produce and decorating needs, with more fall produce coming your way soon! The fruits of their labor are sold on the basis of free-will donations— pay what you can— and the Jeannitons say it gives them more than it takes, providing this service to the public. “It all evens out, and if someone doesn’t pay anything, they obviously need the food. We aren’t worried about it; we aren’t doing this to make money,” says Paula. The Jeannitons explained they have mainly just planted this year, to test and observe what they can accomplish in the coming years, but also have animals for eggs and meat at this time. Ambitions to expand the farm even more than the impressive homestead they have this year are in the works. Some of their aspirations in the coming years include being a fully self-sustainable homestead, to turn their now three- acres of produce into 15 acres of working farmland, and to expand the roadside farm stand, so they may sell not only fresh produce, but also baked goods, dinners, and the like, using their own farm as much as possible to supply these foods entirely locally (inspired, certainly, by CJ’s youth in the Catskills, growing up with both parents in the restaurant business). They are also open to artists and photographers to come use their farm as inspiration and backdrop to their artwork. (They request that one contacts them via the Farm in Peace Facebook page for more information regarding using the farm for these purposes.) Next spring, they plan to promote and organize a plant-share, where you may freely split and trade decorative plants with your local community. On top of all of this, the Jeannitons also own two successful Etsy businesses that they house in a workshop
down the street from their farm: Plantables and Paper, and Journaling Jane. Look them up on Etsy for high-quality, low-cost paper products, accessories, and more distinct and lovely handcrafted goods at www.etsy.com/shop/ plantablesandpaper and www. etsy.com/shop/journalingjane. For 2017, they are offering a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program. Paula Jeanniton states, “The CSA program is essentially like purchasing a ‘share’ in our farm for the season, in exchange for a weekly box of fresh picked, in-season veggies. Each box would strive to have a mix of 6-10 different types of vegetables. The season would run for 16 weeks- from June to October 2017.” They will have 10 spots available for the CSA program to start with, and a waiting list for interested parties in the case of a surplus. Their free-will produce stand will still be available, but CSA boxes will be prioritized during the next growing season. Please contact this kind, talented, and hardworking family via their Farm in Peace Facebook page (or stop by their farm and pick up a brochure) for more information regarding the CSA boxes- or come to peruse their variety of farm fresh produce, and feast your eyes on the unique slice of peaceful country life and palpable joy of giving the Jeannitons hold, just a few minutes west of Springville, at 3380 Route 39 in Collins.

A History of Springville Fires Sept. 18 Cemetery Walk Honors Fallen
Take a walk through local history on Sunday, Sept. 18 and honor those who lost their lives in the many ďŹ res of days gone by in Springville. Springville has had a lot of major ďŹ res over the years. On June 7, 1868, one of the ďŹ rst great ďŹ res destroyed everything on the south side of the Main Street. A few years later, another ďŹ re that burned the other side of the street. In 1921, A Hook and Ladder Company was formed by volunteers, and Springville had a Volunteer Fire Department. All the meetings were recorded in the newspapers. There were two at the time, leading to two different points of view regarding a new ďŹ re truck purchased in the 1920s. Another article features Alice Jurella, a telephone operator during the 1946 ďŹ re, who sent calls out to other

ďŹ re companies within a long radius, 100 percent of which responded. The article credits these neighboring communities and their ďŹ remen for holding the ďŹ re within the bounds that it was kept. Join others to honor those who lost their lives during the many Springville ďŹ res. Meet at 3 p.m. at the Vault at
Maplewood Cemetery. After the walk, everyone is welcome to come to the Warner museum, where there are several displays of ďŹ reďŹ ghting equipment, articles and ads that document these times in local history. For more info, call (716) 592-0094 or email lucybensleycenter@gmail. com.

local residents. As the Civil War ended and other academies appeared in western New York, the Springville Academy was at a crossroads. In 1868, with the help of C.C. Severance, long time board of trustee and president of the board, the academy approached Archibald GrifďŹ th of East Concord. GrifďŹ th would give an initial $10,000 to the Academy and after his death, even more money. The Springville Academy changed its name to GrifďŹ th Institute in honor of the endowment. The money would help construct the new academy building and offer free tuition to students and teachers. Just to get an idea of how far the money went, the average income in 1860s was $600 a month. According to the advertisement in the newspaper, the tuition for the spring term 1868 was $6.50 for basic English classes, higherlevel classes were $7.50, and the mathematics and language classes ran $8.50. The cost of boarding in the residences in Springville was $3 a week. Because of this, most people could not afford an education after grade school.
In 1868, GrifďŹ th Institute had 125 students; in 1869, there were 200 students in attendance. The GrifďŹ th endowment and new and expanded building resulted in a great increase of students. Looking back, another aspect of school life in 1868 Springville would be the bylaws that students had to live under. In our age of texting, school choice and debates about transgender bathrooms, these rules would be quite strenuous. Here are a few from 1868 catalog: 3: Students will not be permitted to attend balls, or other public amusements or parties of pleasure, without the written permission of the parents or guardians, previously presented to the principal. 9. No student will be permitted to take lessons outside of the institution, without the permission of the principal. 10. Students will punctually rise at 5 o’clock in the morning and retire at 9 ½ o’clock in the evening. 11. A strict observance of study hours and the Sabbath and attendance at Church at least once on that day at such places as parents’ desire will be
required. 13. No student is allowed for pleasure to visit, walk, or ride with or otherwise entertain another of the opposite sex without permission of the principal. It would seem odd today that the governing body at the time was the Genesee Conference of the Wesleyan Methodist Church. The principals in the 1860s were also Methodist ministers. It was common practice. Academies in Aurora, Perry and Geneseo were also run by the Genesee Conference. Surviving today is Houghton College, still operated by the Wesleyan Church. SGI has certainly changed in the nearly 150 years since the GrifďŹ th endowment. As we continue to grow and evolve, here’s to another successful school year! Cover Photo: The photo shows the 1868 GrifďŹ th Institute building in forward half. The later rear addition behind the bell tower was added in 1885. The building stood where the St. Al’s Hall parking lot currently is on the corner of Franklin and Academy Streets.

SGI Board Welcomes New School Year
Capital Project Vote Sept. 20
By Ashlee O akley
On Sept. 12, the Board of Education of SpringvilleGriffith Institute CSD met at 7 p.m. in Springville-GI high school library media center. BOE President, Allison Duwe, calls the meeting to order, to discuss their regular business meeting agenda, and calls for the board and attendees to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance. Other present board members were Jennifer Sullivan (Board Vice President), Elizabeth Casey, Tyler Sullivan, Garret English, and Chris Cerrone, along with Superintendent Kimberly Moritz, and District Clerk Kathy Tucker. Board member Michael Connors reports back at the next board meeting, as will the Student Representative, high school senior Isobel Hooker. The agenda is approved across the board, and Duwe makes a declaration of public expression (there is also an opportunity for public expression at the end of the meeting). Anyone wishing to speak with the board via Board of Education meetings should first address the district clerk before the public expression portion of the meeting, including name, contact information, organization represented (if applicable), and a description of the topic you wish to speak about at the business meeting. “Comments also may be made in writing to the Board. Correspondence should be addressed to: Springville-Griffith Institute Central School District, Board of Education, 307 Newman Street, Springville, NY 14141,” from the district website. It is made known that the Board of Education meetings are recorded and made available to the public on the website at www.springvillegi.org, under the tab “Board of Ed”. BOE Meeting Highlights BOE Performance Evaluation Retreat Duwe discussed a recent Board of Education retreat, in which each board member wrote an evaluation of the board’s performance. She explained the significance of the retreat, at which they worked together to evaluate both each other as board members, but also as a district. It was said that relationships need to be developed, as we go into a year with many new administrators in the district, and team building experiences should be prioritized as they continue to evolve their focus and objectives as a board, as well as a list of objectives for Moritz throughout the year. Duwe explains that these goals and objectives will serve as the basis of their evaluation of Moritz as our district’s new superintendent.
She compliments the district staff on the newsletter sent out recently, and thanks them for putting it together quickly and efficiently, noting that parents have voiced their praise that they are happy with dynamics happening in the schools with all of the district’s staff. Peter Griesinger’s Resignation Discussed was the resignation of Peter Griesinger, the previous elementary strings music teacher. Duwe stated, “I just wanted to note that with consensus, we say best wishes to Peter, but also that our thoughts and hearts are with those that are also having some struggles [regarding his resignation, submitted Aug.15, 2016].” The new SES orchestra teacher is Sang Mi Borneman. English Resigns From Board Board member Mr. Garrett English of Boston, who has been part of the district for four years, is resigning from his position on the Springville-GI Board of Education. He states he was offered an employment opportunity in Georgia. He said this was expected, but not so soon, and now the next meeting in October will be his final meeting. This week he will be submitting his formal letter of resignation to the district clerk, effective next month, and starting in November, he will be in Georgia permanently. English notes, “I am extremely happy to see where the Springville-GI Central School District is going.” He adds, “I wish I could be here to see the forward progression,” and praises the superintendent, board, staff and administration highly. The board is expected to accept his resignation at the October board meeting, as well as understand and discuss options for what will now be a vacant seat on the sevenmember board. Duwe thanks English for his “thoughtful, soft-spoken approach,” and this district congratulates him, and wishes him well. New Administration: Week One Moritz congratulated James Bialasik, Kate Werner, and Joe DeMartino for a very successful SGI Varsity football home opener this past Friday, Sept. 9. She praises that she has received much positive feedback, but none better than
an email from a mother of a Frontier student at the game, who was impressed with the village and school community’s friendly, accepting atmosphere, and said the high school football field had the perfect, Friday-night-lights feel. She states that she has had a great deal of unsolicited positive responses to the atmosphere and “new feel” in the district. A few of the speakers included Kate Werner, on behalf of new high school principal James Bialasik, Shanda DuClon, middle school principal, Marcole Feuz, Colden elementary school principal, and Christopher Scarpine, Springville elementary school principal. They were congratulated on their calm, collected approach to working out the kinks involved in the first few weeks of school, and were all excited to move forward, having each day be better at their respective schools than the last. Public Hearing and Capital Project Vote The SGI Board of Education will have a public hearing on Tuesday, Sept. 20 at 7 p.m., to discuss the revised capital project referendum with members of the community. “To lessen the impact on local taxpayers, the newly revised capital project will have a reduced scope that focuses on the most critical health, safety, accessibility and code compliance issues at each of our district buildings,” states the informational postcard sent to homes in the past few weeks. Be advised, the vote will take place at SGI high school, from 10 a.m.-9 p.m. Consensus Items and Other Notes There were several items voted in consensus, as well as various workshops discussed, grants and funding for the district, the audit committee report, new education information, evaluation tool information, crosswalks, and more pertinent information to local taxpayers. Interested parties may listen to the full meeting on the district website, as well as view any items or documents associated. The next Board of Education regular business meeting will be held Oct. 11, 2016, at 7 p.m. in the high school’s library media center.

Cindy Bramer and daughter Melissa Frank, owners of Metro Kirsch Real Estate of Springville, NY. By Ashlee O akley
In 1965, when Rose Kirsch started her new business, Metro Rose Kirsch, based in Holland, NY, she had a dream and a purpose that eventually gained her five offices all over Western New York. Little could she know, 51 years later, her daughter, Cindy, would be holding the reigns, with her granddaughter to be next in line. Cindy Bramer and her daughter, Melissa Frank, are now situated in their successful, centralized location at 40 East Main Street. Bramer is the owner of the building, as well as the office rented out to Anything Printed. The building also includes “Bill’s Party Place,” a finished basement rented out by Bramer’s husband, Bill Sr., who’s also a poker dealer at Seneca Niagara Casino, and three new apartments upstairs that are currently being renovated. Frank’s husband, Brandon, is employed by Bertrand Chaffee Hospital in several management and security positions, while their two young girls go to school in the district. Frank states, “We live here, we work here, and we are investing in the community by improving our section of Main Street.” Bramer first started selling real estate in 1984, opening the Springville branch office in 1998, while her mother continued to hold main offices in Holland and East Aurora. Frank was licensed in 2003, and four years later, Bramer took over the family business, consolidating their business office to the now recognizable feature on Main, and renaming the establishment Metro Kirsch Real Estate. “We were doing better business locally, here in our hometown at the Springville office; it wasn’t worth keeping up with three offices,” says Bramer. Fast forward to today, and this powerhouse duo and their agents sell 150-180 homes each year on average — last year’s total being 169 houses sold — while their total sales volume exceeds $17 million. Glowing reviews are given of their staff. “There are 12 staff members in our office, including the two of us,” Bramer explains, adding that her agents are the number one resource she has that makes her company stand out against the rest. She notes, “We do one-on-one training here, which is not a requirement [to continue with licensure], and some companies don’t do that. I think that sets us apart from other similar companies. It is important to us that our agents know what they’re doing out there, before we send them out alone.” Frank adds, “The office and all of our agents are members of the Buffalo Niagara Board of Realtors, in order to have access to the online realty system. We have also joined the Chautauqua board in order to expand their marketing reach across the region.” Frank speaks a bit about how critical the internet is as a tool for selling and searching for homes, and states, “That is probably the biggest benefit of listing your house for sale with an agent, is the internet exposure you get. Once we enter it into our system, it makes it available to every person looking for a home, as well as every agent. We have an agreement process for our listings to be pulled from all of the real estate websites. That is a big misconception: it doesn’t matter if it has our particular signage or not, if a house is for sale, we may show clients anything they’d like to see.” Bramer suggests that when you are selling, buying, or just thinking about buying, it’s important to know that it is best to find a realtor that you feel good about, and stick with that realtor for all of your realty needs. It is reasonable to seek a relationship with a real estate agent you feel comfortable with, as opposed to who is merely available. She remarks, “They’ll take care of you. If you’re loyal to [your agent], they’ll be loyal to your interests.” This may be in part because much of their work is pro-bono — they don’t get paid until the house closes — but you get the sense that this company genuinely cares to be sure that you are happy with their services. Advertising in any form available is crucial to the success of their business. Metro Kirsch Real Estate supports the community with donations in exchange for advertising services, and are in community papers, online, and even on channel 7 on Saturday mornings at 10 a.m., if you are looking for a home. When asked what they loved most about their job, mother and daughter alike both lit up with obvious appreciation, and said nearly the same thing: “Helping people. Having a client walk into a house I found for them, and loving it. Helping people find their dream home. Especially if they aren’t interested, but then they walk in and know it’s the house for them… I love it,” enthuses Frank. Bramer adds, “I like to help make people’s dreams come true, and homeownership is a tangible dream.” Besides their own full-time, fast-paced realty office, Bramer and Frank take time for the little things in life, as well as community service. Frank boasts of her mother, “My mom has been the President of the Buffalo Metro Realty Group three times, and for the second year in a row now.” Additionally, Metro Kirsch Realty is a member of the Springville Area Chamber of Commerce, and Bramer is a member of the Professional Standards Committee, which is a job that deals with ethics and arbitration for the Buffalo Board of Realtors. She is proud to have been nominated to be a member, three years running. Frank is the President of the Springville Elementary School PTA, is a Springville Youth Incorporated board member, and also coaches flag-football cheerleading. Bramer is satisfied to love her job, travel, and be a grandmother. These two women would most like to convey to the reader that this is their community; this is where they live, work, and enjoy selling houses to their neighbors (or neighbors-to-be). To contact the Metro Kirsch Real Estate’s office, call at 592-0341 from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. on weekdays, or stop by their office to find the perfect realtor for you!
