Fabulous February Break Fun By Alicia Dziak
February 14 Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day! Presidents Day! February break! You and the fam have a lot to celebrate, and heading to EVL means the fun can and will go non-stop from now until the kiddos head back to school on Feb. 22. How are you going to spend the mid-winter break? If hitting the slopes is on your agenda, break week is the perfect time to enjoy extra time on the slopes at both resorts. HoliMont is open to all from Monday through Friday, so even non-members can enjoy short lift lines, a variety of terrain and delicious food in the chalet at the largest private ski area in North America. At Holiday Valley, you can let the kids stay up late on a weeknight and take in some nighttime skiing. Dozens of trails are open all day and into the night, and are sure to keep everyone active. When you need a break, enjoy a hot chocolate fireside at the lodges or grab a waffle at the base of Cindy’s for an extra special treat. If you prefer to hit the trails on cross country skis, EVL has you covered. Explore the trails along Holiday Valley’s golf course at the base of the mountain for free. They’re open during daylight hours and there are solar lights for a nighttime ski — just be sure to stay away from the ponds (marked with ropes) that are used for snowmaking. For just $12, you can purchase a tworide cross country lift ticket for the Mardi Gras, Cindy’s or Tannenbaum lifts, and ski along the ridgeline from Cindy’s to Spruce Lake. Then you can ride the Mardi Gras or Tannenbaum chair back down, or ski down one of the easier trails like Tannenbaum

areas, Bova and Big Basin, and ski jumps many decades ago. Once a highly popular hub for skiing, the park boasted three slalom courses, ski jumps and a Poma lift. “Most people do not realize that skiing in the Western New York area actually first began right here in Allegany State Park,” said Bob Schmid, president of the Allegany State Park Historical Society. Working together, park engineer Art Photo Bob Schmid Roscoe and former Olympic skier Karl By Eva Potter Fahrner designed the 30- and 50-meter Allegany State Park (ASP), widely known for its many ski jumps in the early 1930s. From 1933 miles of hiking and snowmobile trails, cross-country to 1941, the Civilian Conservation skiing, snowshoeing and myriad other four-season outdoor Corps (CCC) built a variety of sports activities, was also on the map as home to two alpine ski See ASP Ski page 15
Penguins, Play and Prizes Big Fun Coming to HV Next Weekend By Alicia Dziak
Ride, slide and laugh your way to fun on Saturday, Feb. 20 at the annual Penguin Paddle! This major fundraiser for Holiday Valley’s Lounsbury Adaptive Ski Program (LASP) features a silent auction, raffles, a lunch tent and of course the famous penguin slide, where people slip inside a garbage bag and slide on their bellies “penguin style” down the bottom of Yodeler slope. This year’s Penguin Paddle, which runs from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., will feature more than 75 auction items, a radio station broadcast and possibly more surprises! Money raised from this event goes toward equipment, instructor training, the scholarship program and an annual Veterans day, this year held on March 4, when disabled veterans from all over can come and learn to ski. “Participate or just spectate, it is a great day!” said Jane Eshbaugh, Holiday Valley’s marketing director.

Business owners in the village of Ellicottville will soon be receiving copies of the zoning ordinance related to sandwich board signs, along with a letter from Mayor Charlie Coolidge asking for cooperation and compliance. Coolidge and the Village Board have been working for
many months to solve problems related to the population growth of the moveable signs on main village street corners. Existing law permits each building to place one sandwich board sign outside and it must be placed within one foot of the building. In recent years, however, multiple signs from the same
businesses have been showing up on street corners far from the actual business. Coolidge and the board are concerned that they are tripping hazards, plus they make routine maintenance (snow removal and mowing) difficult for village employees and they are unsightly. As an alternative to such See Village Board page 11
Village Planning Board OKs Monroe St. Brick & Brew
By Jann Wiswall
The Village Planning Board approved a special use permit for Steve Feldman and Frank Maduri, allowing them to open a brick oven pizza shop at 21 Monroe Street in the building that formerly housed a Laundromat. Following a public hearing that generated no
public comments, the board confirmed that all paperwork was in order for the restaurant. The board also approved the shop’s proposed hanging sign with lighting. The restaurant will be called Monroe Street Brick & Brew. It will have 512 square feet of space with a maximum
occupancy of 46 customers. There will be a brick pizza oven and a small bar where craft beers and wine will be served. Delivery service will be offered. The owners said they might apply for a full liquor license in the future. They also may propose to renovate See Village Planning page 15
ECS/West Valley Open to Talks By Colleen Mahoney
The Ellicottville Central School District is open to participating in an annexation study with West Valley Central School, according to ECS Superintendent Mark Ward. During his report at the Feb. 9 Board of Education meeting, Ward talked about a meeting
that was held between the two districts to discuss the future of both schools. “West Valley is continuing to have dialogue in their community about what the next step is,” Ward said. “We told them we’d work with them once they decide.” Ward said the next move
needs to come from West Valley, but said the initial meeting was good and informative. Ellicottville is willing to keep channels of communication open, Ward said, but they will wait to hear from West Valley. See ECS Board page 4

The 80/20 Rule
By Kim Duke, NETA & AAFA Certified Trainer
As a personal trainer and nutrition advisor, my job is to advocate, recommend and encourage my clients to enjoy a “healthy” lifestyle and diet. And, as we all know, this can be difficult with all the unhealthy temptations that exist in modern society. The way people eat is also very personal. It is driven by many things, including emotions, peer pressure and socialization. People’s dietary habits are often set in stone and are extremely hard to change without a strong personal commitment. However, there is nothing that has a greater impact on your overall health, mood and well being than your diet. That brings me to “The 80/20 Rule of Healthy Moderation.” To the dismay of many, discipline is often regarded as a major aspect of healthy living. Although it’s certainly an important part of achieving optimal health, occasional rule breaking is also important! There’s a simple guideline called the “80/20 Rule” that many health practitioners use with their clients. According to
the rule, if you spend 80% of your time adhering closely to a healthy lifestyle, your health should be able to withstand whatever you do during the remaining 20% of the time. In order to properly implement the 80/20 Rule, you must have a broad perspective and consider all the factors that can affect your health. For example, your level of stress, the amount of rest you get, your diet, and how frequently or infrequently you exercise all play a significant role in your health. According to the 80/20 Rule, you can only afford to spend 20% of your time deviating from the combination of all of these factors. Plus, there are so many differing opinions on how to manage your weight safely and effectively. From the Beach Body craze to the Paleo diet, we have seen that not all programs are created equal. You need to find what works for you, your lifestyle and your body. Presently, I am trying my hand at the Paleo diet, which is heavy on protein, mostly from animal sources. To strictly adhere to this diet, you’d need to consume things you’d hunt for or gather in the wild. That’s almost impossible to do in our modern age, so you follow a modified version: eat plenty of animal flesh and seafood. Round out the diet with eggs, nuts, seeds, fruits and vegetables. This way of eating is related to the way cavemen ate as hunters and gatherers. It also means you are to avoid all processed, dairy,
cereal or wheat products, as well as tubers, legumes, salt and sugar. I love the diet so far, but I also love whole grains. So I have adopted the 80/20 rule. If I do not feel like eating eggs for breakfast, I will have old fashioned oats with walnuts, blueberries and cinnamon. I also drink wine and that is NOT Paleo (apparently the cavemen did not drink so they would not become prey). We’re all different. Each of us has a unique tolerance for the burdens our body can withstand, and this can even depend on the type of burden it is. For example, diabetics are sensitive to sugary foods. Some people are prone to anxiety, so may have more trouble with stress when on strict diets. People with food sensitivities can have reactions that last for days and far exceed the amount of burden your health can withstand without issue. The bottom line is that you have to decide for yourself how far you’ll take this. You need to consider how much of a priority your health is, how much you are willing to sacrifice, and how much indulgence you need to maintain your sanity and happiness. Obviously the less you cave in to unhealthy behaviors the better your health will be, and the more mentally and physically capable you’ll be of enjoying life. However, if you’re so strict that you make yourself miserable, it defeats the purpose.
ECS Board Continued from front page
“The ball is in their court now,” he said. “We made our position clear.” Ward also updated the board on the progress of the ongoing capital project. The date for completion of the lockers has been moved to April, which he called “aggravating,” but said everything else is moving along nicely. The bell and clock display in the main entrance – “a nod to the 1948 merger with Great Valley High School” – will be glassed in. Ward said students have already been “checking them out,” adding it’s been a long time since the clock has been running. The display is “symbolic … I think it’s turning out pretty classy,” Ward said. Elementary School Principal Connie Poulin updated the board on the strategic planning task force.
Poulin, who serves as its facilitator, said the core team will be meeting again on Feb. 23, to discuss the strategic intents and key initiatives. Some of the goals include performing 20 percent better than the New York state average in assessments, maintaining appropriate levels of communication between parents, the school and students, finding flexibility between traditional and digital textbooks and planning for prioritizing building needs. The senior trip has been canceled due to a lack of student participation, Middle and High School Principal Robert Miller reported. The trip had only seven students signed up, Miller said. The board asked if the students could instead participate in a
day trip, locally. Miller said they would go back to the “drawing board.” ECS students placed first in the Scholastic Challenge Competition in Portville, Miller reported. After a “heated battle” with Wellsville, ECS was able to take home first place and move on to Nationals. “It’s a great opportunity for our kids,” Miller said. “It carries on the tradition of academic excellence in ECS.” The team, coached by Ann Chamberlain, includes Victor Reiman, Robert Spell, Will Timkey and Shelby Toth. The ECS Board of Education will next meet on March 1, at 7:30 p.m. in the high school library.
ECS will be closed for winter break Feb. 15-19

Village Board Continued from front page
signs and to help visitors find shops, several years ago the village installed maroon and white directional signs to shops at each of the main Village intersections. In its review of zoning law, the Village Planning Board recommended no changes to existing law except to reduce the maximum size of future signs from 4’ to 3’ tall. Businesses with signs that comply with current law may continue to use them. Only new signs are subject to the new maximum dimensions. The board acknowledges that much of the problem has to do with the fact that people don’t know the specifics of the law, especially the newer businesses in town. At its Feb. 8 meeting, the mayor and the board agreed that the law is clear as proposed. The problem is compliance. And the first step toward compliance is to make sure business owners clearly understand the law. The mayor will ask people to voluntarily comply with the law. The sandwich board issue is only one small part of the full zoning law, which has been under review for many months since the planning board submitted proposed changes for the board’s approval. With two members of the planning board in attendance for the Feb. 8 review, however, the village board was able to ask questions, get answers and make a motion to authorize the board to serve as the lead agency for a State
Environmental Quality Review of the law. The board expects to be able to set a public hearing on the proposed changes for its April meeting. In other business, several board members noted that drivers are still going both ways on Hughey Alley, which has been one way only from Monroe Street to Ellicottville Optical since last summer. Visitors are not the only violators; employees who park behind Washington Street businesses also are traveling both ways. Department of Public Works chief Harold Morton was asked to look at signage again to see if any improvements can be made. Coolidge said he will talk with Ellicottville police about ticketing violators. Nussbaumer & Clarke Project Engineer Seth Krull, representing village engineer Mike Smith, reported that progress continues to be made on the village wastewater treatment plant, however, the electrical and general contractors both had requested extensions to the “substantial completion” date until the end of April in order to properly test all systems. The final completion date of May 31 will not change. The board approved the request. Patra Lowes, who chairs the village’s special events committee, reported that the committee has met with the Ellicottville Chamber of Commerce about the planned Mardi Gras parade on March
12. She said that the Chamber still needs to provide the village with copies of the State DOT permit to close Rt. 219 for the parade. It also needs to provide proof of insurance for the town, fire department and any other organizations that volunteer to manage traffic detours. The board approved the event on the condition that those requirements are met. Discussion about requiring village residents to use approved trash totes will continue; the board has not yet seen a proposal that outlines procedures, processes, enforcement and related issues for consideration. However, in its discussion of the 2016-17 budget, board members pointed out that purchase of totes by the Village for residents was not budgeted. Coolidge acknowledged that fact, saying he didn’t think the board would be able to find the funds. He said the most important next step is to get residents’ feedback on the subject. There was no further discussion about how totes would be paid for. The 2016-17 draft budget shows total appropriations of nearly $1.9 million for the general fund and sewer and water departments. No tax increase is proposed. A public hearing on the budget will be held at the next village board meeting, which is scheduled for Monday, March 14 at 6 p.m. in the village/town hall.
PUBLIC NOTICE Dear Fire District Residents: The Village and Town of Ellicottville Joint Fire District will be holding a vote on Tuesday, February 23, 2016, to determine if the residents authorize or do not authorize the purchase of a new fire pumper/rescue truck. The proposed new truck would replace the approximately 20-year-old rescue truck, which would be sold if the new truck is approved. If approved, a new truck would be ordered by April 2016 and delivered within one year. Payments on the truck would not begin until April/ May, one year after delivery (April/May 2018) We estimate the new truck financing and payments can be made without raising the district fire tax. By applying our reserve truck fund (savings for truck), the money we have budgeted for the fire hall and tower truck (aerial), which will be retired April 2018, along with fire tax received from annexing a portion of Mansfield Fire District, we can finance payments with no tax increase. We feel the bond (loan) with a minimum of a five-year agreement to obtain, could be paid off in full before the five year period is up. Voting will be at the Ellicottville Fire Hall from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. on February 23, 2016. We appreciate your support. Sincerely, Jack Rogan President E.F.D.

facebook.com/TheEllicottvilleTimes ‘Even Dogs in the Wild’ by Ian Rankin Detective Inspector Siobhan Clarke is feeling the heat. She’s investigating the death of a senior government prosecutor, David Minton, who has friends in high places. When one of their own is killed, the powers that be want answers fast. But Clarke is puzzled: if Minton died in a robbery as everyone thinks, why is nothing missing from his home? The answer may lie not in what was taken, but in what was left behind at the scene--an ominous note. Even Dogs in the Wild reunites crime fiction legend Ian Rankin’s greatest characters in an explosive story exploring the darkest corners of our desires.

Alpine Advice from the Pro
Changing Lanes
By Ron Kubicki PSIA/AASI Certified Level III Alpine/Children’s Specialist II
There are a lot of ways to improve your skiing and expand your skill base. It doesn’t matter if you are still using a wedge to start your turn or if you are a dynamic parallel skier. There are tactics and drills we can all use to make us more adaptable and able to explore more of the mountain. No matter how you turn or what terrain you are comfortable on, you can challenge yourself with a couple of simple drills that give you a sense of being able to make consistent turns no matter what terrain changes you encounter. Like I said, any level skier can do this, so go and ďŹ nd terrain you are comfortable with, including other skier and rider trafďŹ c. Drill 1: Changing Lanes Start facing downhill, make a turn (in either direction) and then count: 1-hut, 2-hut, turn. Repeat:1-hut, 2-hut, turn. Repeat: 1-hut, 2-hut, turn. Repeat: 1-hut, 2-hut, turn. After the fourth one, count 1-hut, 2-hut, 3-hut, turn. Then go back to the 1-hut, 2-hut count.
What you just did is change lanes. You made four short turns then a medium sized turn, which changed your position on the slope. Now immediately repeat the four turns with the 1-2 count then another 1-2-3 count and you will switch back basically into the lane you started in. Repeat this several times and you should ďŹ nd the rhythm. The cadence of the count has you focused on turning, and not on what terrain or snow you are on. So instead of avoiding that bump or depression, or pile of ungroomed snow, you skied through it. You were in charge of your skis and what they were doing. The change in cadence from the two-count to the three-count keeps you actively engaged and adds versatility to your turn shape and size. Play with this on various pitches and soon you will develop the ability to change where you are on the slope or deal with more of what the mountain will throw at you while maintaining turn-shape and speed. Drill 2: Hourglass Again, ďŹ nd suitable terrain for your skill level and comfort zone. Start by making a long radius turns, immediately reducing each following turn until you are doing a short radius turn. Now increase the size of each turn until you have returned to the size of your original long radius turn. Ideally, you should have the same number and length of turns as you decreased and increased your turns. An image of your run would give your turns the impression of an hourglass shape.
You should maintain the same speed throughout this drill. Try to do this in a predetermined length of slope, say the distance between two lift towers. Do this with a partner and grade each other on how closely you create your hourglass. This will enhance your ability to ski and turn where and when you want without regard to or concern about the terrain or condition of the snow. Like I said in the beginning, any level and any age skier can use these drills. Have fun with the beginner kids doing these together. Wedge skiers are likely to ďŹ nd that the rhythm and cadence may encourage them to match skis more often and sooner in their turns, getting them closer to parallel. Advanced skiers should ďŹ nd the cadence and rhythm enhances their turns and may improve their balance, stance and tactics on the mountain. Learning and practicing these fun drills takes you out of your norm – making the same turns on the same slopes – and gives you the ability to ski where you want without regard to conditions and terrain. Plus if you do them with friends, or even alone, it may add some variety and fun to your day and enrich your overall experience on the mountain. For these and many more fun and useful drills, take a group or personal lesson/ coaching session from any of our PSIA-E trained staffs. They love to “share the fun!â€?

Snowshoes are available to rent from the High Performance Shop for $18 for 8 hours. How about some high speed thrills with minimal work?

an inatable tube and then get a rope-tow ride back up to the top. A free shuttle is available from Holiday Valley. Extended hours during the February break are Feb 15, 11a.m.-6 p.m. and Feb 16-17, 4:30-9 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 17 is also US Army Day at the Tubing Park.

Don’t Forget Their Teeth! It’s National Pet Dental Health Month
Dr. Sheila Fitzpatrick with daughter Christina
As I drove home from my ofďŹ ce yesterday, I thought to myself, I really enjoy my profession because I love the fact that I can “make a differenceâ€? in the lives of pets and their owners on a daily basis. On this particular day I was able to provide dental care for an aging kitty who otherwise could have suffered from the side effects of dental disease. What a difference I was able to make in her overall health and comfort as I identiďŹ ed and removed many broken and diseased teeth. Without this care, she could have suffered
from systemic disease. This story is especially important to tell now because February is National Pet Dental Health Month. During this month, many veterinarians around the country provide free dental exams and reduced rate dental cleanings to encourage better dental hygiene which leads to overall better pet health. Pets can’t tell you that their teeth hurt and there may be no outward indication that they are in pain. Even though you may open your pet’s mouth and it all looks ok on the surface, there’s no way to know for certain. And although bad breath is not always a sign of tooth decay, it can indicate that a problem tooth that needs to be addressed. A complete dental exam and thorough cleaning allows the veterinarian to carefully identify problem areas and perform deep cleaning around the teeth. Your vet also will probe the gums for “pockets� that indicate decay and potential disease in the bone around the tooth. More important, dental disease can lead to systemic
infections. SigniďŹ cant dental disease in the mouth can allow dangerous bacteria to enter the blood stream and cause lifethreatening illness in the heart, lungs, kidneys and bones. Dental disease also can complicate other disease processes. If a pet has to ďŹ ght an infection in the mouth, it becomes even more difďŹ cult to ďŹ ght infections in other areas of the body. So, take advantage of National Pet Dental Health Month and schedule your pets for their dental exam. You’ll have healthier, happier pets overall! Sheila Fitzpatrick, DVM, is a graduate of Colorado State University College of Veterinary Medicine and owns Mountain Mobile Veterinary Service in Eagle and Vail, CO. She’s a 1983 graduate of Ellicottville Central School and a frequent visitor to Ellicottville where her parents still live and her father Dana and brothers Greg and Dan own and run Fitzpatrick and Weller. She provides this column as a public service to pet owners in our area.
@EVLTimes Great Valley Seeks Residents’ Input By Colleen Mahoney
Residents of Great Valley are encouraged to offer suggestions and ideas to help plan the future of the town as the town board begins its update of the comprehensive plan. As Town Supervisor Dan Brown explained at the Feb. 8 town board meeting, an up-to-date comprehensive plan outlines the long-term direction of the town and can help in getting grant money. It’s supposed to be updated every 10 years. The current plan is around nine years old. “We’re looking for ideas ‌ anything that you might want to see,â€? Brown said. The board is planning a more formal meeting for the
late spring, though Brown invited residents to provide input before any forthcoming board meetings. In other business, the board voted to request bids for seasonal mowing in the town. Cemetery mowing in the town will be put on one bid, the Town and Memorial parks will be another and the Bonnevale sewer ďŹ eld will be a third bid. The Great Valley Fire Department unofďŹ cially asked the board to waive the 30-day waiting period for liquor licenses. The Department currently holds a bar license, which was recently renewed. According to Code Enforcement OfďŹ cer Richard Rinko, the department feels a catering license would better
ďŹ t their needs. “There is no license that ďŹ ts the ďŹ re department exactly,â€? Rinko said, “but the catering license ďŹ ts better.â€? The board agreed to waive the waiting period, and authorized Brown to send a letter to the ďŹ re department. An Ellicott Street resident reported that two beef cattle are being housed on an Ellicott Street property and asked the board to look into whether this was permitted. “We’ll look into that, see how it’s zoned,â€? Brown said. “We can get back to you.â€? The next town board meeting will be held on Monday, March 14 at 7 p.m. in the town hall.

facilities in the park, including the ski jumps. They were the only major ski jumps in the Western New York area and, at the time, were considered to be among the best in the entire country. The first-ever National Ski Tournament was held on the newly built jumps on Feb. 24, 1935, reportedly attracting more than 5,000 people to the landmark event. Ski jumping competitions were held twice a year thereafter and their popularity quickly grew, attracting to nearly 10,000 spectators and competitors to events. “The amazing thing of all of this is that you once had worldclass and Olympic skiers that skied right here in Allegany State Park,” said Schmid. Indeed, amateur, professional and Olympic skiers from Europe, Canada and other countries converged on the park to catch some air. Eventually, colleges used the jumps to host intercollegiate championships, too. The last event was held in February 1979. Sadly, the jumps became unusable later that year after a massive flood washed out parts of the landing area. If you happen to explore the park near the Red House dam and spillway, near the Red House Maintenance Service Road, you may still find evidence of these fine ski jumps and their stone-made take-offs. BOVA SKI SLOPES The Bova Ski Slopes were built on 197 acres of land owned by the French-Canadian Bova family (pronounced bohvay and originally spelled Beauvais). The park purchased the land from the family in the late 1920s, according to Schmid. Skiing at Bova began in 1938 on the main slope, which was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps. Beginner and moderate slopes were built in 1940. Skiing at Bova was definitely a no-frills experience with just the three slopes, no grooming and a rope tow powered by a reconditioned Model A Ford engine to get you to the top.
But that rope tow operated at 16.2 mph and could handle 1,200 riders per hour. The 1,450-long main slope had a 283-foot vertical descent — long enough for a good downhill schuss. The Bova’s farmhouse was used as the main lodge in the early days. Later, you could grab a bite to eat in the Snack Shack, which opened in 1942 at the base of the slalom slope. You could also stay a while and warm up by the stove. Believe it or not, all the way up through the 1977-78 ski season, it still cost only $1.50 to ski all day! Victor Anderson, a frequent skier at Bova said, “The thing I remember about Bova was waiting until two big guys would ride up the rope tow so I could be between them. The rope was really heavy and I was just a kid.” Sally Marsh, a long-time fixture at ASP, recalled, “I was so lucky as a kid to ski at Bova Ski Slopes and my favorite Big Basin. Bova was hard because of the rope tow. I didn’t have leather gloves, so it shredded your woolen gloves and the oil from the rope stained your jacket, which as a kid back then was your only coat.” Competition from other ski areas, liability risks, outdated equipment they could not afford to replace and diminishing skier interest contributed to the closing of the both the ski jumps and Bova in March 1980.
Today, the Bova area of the park now offers 15 upscale cabins with many creature comforts for rent at the Bova Trail. BIG BASIN The Big Basin Ski Area at ASP was created in 1951 and consisted of four downhill slopes off ASP Route 1 on Bay State Road. A Poma lift, a state-of-the-art ski lift of the day, was imported from France and installed in 1956. The inventor of the lift even travelled to the park to oversee its installation. The lift cost a whopping $13,825. The first of its kind in Western New York, the 1,000-foot lift could haul 625 skiers up the hill per hour. A Poma lift was somewhat similar to a T-bar but had a disk and a shaft with a spring inside (similar to a T-bar shaft) that was attached to overhead cables and it pulled you up the hill. “The trails were more through the woods,” said Marsh about her favorite ASP ski area. “Riding the Poma lift could be a little tricky. You put the disc between your legs and had to keep your skis straight to ride up. Remember, back then skis were longer, so it was easy to cross them and fall off.” The Poma lift scooted skiers up to the top for many years until it broke down in 1972. Repair was not possible because the company had gone out of business, marking the end of the ski area’s operations. During the summer, you can head to the Eastwood Meadows Hiking Trail and see the steel towers that ran the cable wires up and down the main Big Basin slope.

HV and HM FullService Venues By Alicia Dziak
Romance! An unforgettable meal! Breathtaking views! Rustic beauty! You can have it all at your wedding in Ellicottville. It’s no secret that Ellicottville is a great place to be, combining a smalltown atmosphere with big city amenities. If you’re looking for full-service venues for your dream day, with the amazing village of Ellicottville as your backdrop, look no further than the slopes of Holiday Valley and HoliMont. Holiday Valley Weddings It’s hard to imagine a more memorable location than Holiday Valley, and choosing the perfect location within the resort for the ceremony is easy when you have so many options. Katelyn Mueller, CertiďŹ ed Wedding & Event Planner and Catering Sales Manager for Centerplate at Holiday Valley, noted that Holiday Valley offers various locations for the nuptials. The Champagne Sundeck, located just outside Yodeler Lodge, is a gorgeous outdoor patio offering couples two unique options for an onsite ceremony: in front of the natural owing waterfall or under the pavilion in front of a stone ďŹ replace. This location is reserved for couples having their reception at the Yodeler Lodge. The Tamarack Green overlooking the golf course or the Resort Services Deck with the Mardi Gras lift in the background are the onsite ceremony locations reserved for couples having their reception at the Holiday Valley Lodge. The Tannenbaum Lodge features an indoor ceremony location for smaller ceremonies of 100 or less,â€? Mueller added. Finally, a hilltop ceremony is also offered as an option to all couples. Those choosing this option can ride the Mardi Gras or Yodeler chair lift to the top of the hill and be married with a gorgeous view overlooking the valley. “The hilltop ceremony, with or without an optional cocktail hour, is unlike any other,â€? said Mueller, “Couples and guests enjoy a ride up the chairlift to arrive at a private hilltop ceremony overlooking the valley. Enjoy cocktail hour on the hill complete with beer, wine, soda and hot and cold hors d‘oeuvres for you and your guests to enjoy.â€? Following the ceremony, Holiday Valley offers reception space at all three of its beautiful lodges. The second oor of the Holiday Valley Lodge can accommodate 80-280 guests, Yodeler Lodge can hold 150230 guests and Tannenbaum Lodge can accommodate 50150 guests. Decor can be customized to the couple’s personal taste. “Woodland and natural themes are prominent this
year,â€? Mueller said. “Couples are opting to incorporate the outdoors where and whenever possible. Holiday Valley is the perfect setting for a rustic woodland theme, just take a look out our wall to wall, oor to ceiling windows and one can see why!â€? Menus are prepared by Centerplate at Holiday Valley, with a wide array of mouthwatering and unique food and beverage packages. “The most popular menus currently are the three-course slope-side menu and the non-traditional heavy hors d ‘oeuvres reception,â€? explained Mueller. “Buffets seem to be fading in popularity; stations are more appealing to the current bride.â€? HV’s wedding booklet provides menus that can be mixed and matched and customized to meet the client’s vision, including all kinds of add-ons to make the day extra special. “One popular add-on that can make quite the impact is greeting guests with a glass of champagne and fresh strawberries as they enter the cocktail hour,â€? Mueller explained. Working with the couple along the way is a must, and HV is happy to accommodate special requests. “We’ve had several requests for locally grown and organic foods to be the highlight of the reception menu,â€? said Mueller. “Our chef is constantly working to pair entrees with locally grown vegetables and starches, but some couples wish to go beyond just the entrĂŠe pairings. Working side by side with the couple, Holiday Valley can research local poultry and produce farms to price out a menu that will be truly unique for their day.â€? “One thing that sets Holiday Valley far apart from the competition is our service,â€? explained Mueller. “Throughout the process, we have multiple one-on-one visits and a menu tasting to help plan the wedding of your dreams.â€? Come the day of the wedding, Mueller is on-site to coordinate all vendors and staff and keep the day running smoothly to ensure the bride and groom do not have a worry in the world but to enjoy their special day. “In addition, the wedding party will be staffed with a head server whose sole responsibility is to provide service to the wedding party, from preparing drinks to serving dinner, the head server is there for anything the couple may need,â€? Mueller said. For many people, of course, a wedding isn’t just a one-day event. By heading to Holiday Valley, the bride and groom can offer their guests a weekend ďŹ lled with memories and fun. The wedding party and guests can make their big day last all weekend with all the activities the resort has to offer including golf, ziplining at Sky High Adventure Park, riding the mountain coaster and enjoying the poolside Cabana

Bar. Plus, John Harvard’s Brew House is a great place for a rehearsal dinner or after party, and special breakfast packages are available for the post-wedding day. “Every couple is unique and it’s important to hone in on what is most important to them on their special day,â€? Mueller said. “From time of booking right up to the wedding day, our team provides guidance in all facets of planning from the day of time-line, menu selection and oor plans to vendor and dĂŠcor recommendations, Holiday Valley is here to ensure the wedding exceeds the couple’s wedding vision.â€? For more information, contact Katelyn Mueller at (716) 699-3968 or kmueller@ holidayvalley.com. HoliMont Weddings HoliMont members and non-members alike can choose to have their ceremony amidst the tranquil hills of the resort inside the chalet lodge, outside the lodge in front of the slopes or on top of the hill via a chairlift ride. After the ceremony, the couple can work with HoliMont’s staff to create a dream reception inside and outside the beautiful chalet, which can accommodate weddings with up to 350 guests. “We offer full service wedding planning services from decorating to logistics for your special day,â€? said Dina DiPasquale, owner of Dina’s at the Mont. “We don’t do ‘cookie cutter’ weddings. Every bride and groom’s day is planned around their tastes, budget and style.â€? Catering for weddings is also provided by Dina’s, and couples can choose from a diverse menu selection that’s sure to impress. “Chicken Cecelia on Dina’s Restaurant’s menu has been very popular,â€? said owner Dina DiPasquale, describing the dish as a “lightly breaded, panfried, free range chicken breast served with potato rissole and topped with arugula, oven roasted tomatoes, freshly shaved parmesan cheese and a balsamic reduction.â€? In addition to a delicious, customized wedding reception menu, Dina’s creates magniďŹ cent cakes, menus for rehearsal dinners and postwedding send-off brunches. Couples can also offer their guests chair lift rides and late night snacks from the Dina’s food truck for that added “wowâ€? factor.
