Embrace the Soft During Alpaca Farm Weekend By Mary Heyl
Softer than a down pillow. More adorable than a teddy bear. Able to steal your heart in a single glance. Look! Out in the field! It’s a camel. It’s a llama. It’s an alpaca! Yes, it’s an alpaca, member of the camelid family from another continent who came to the United States with luxuriously soft fleece and a personality far sweeter than that of other livestock. Although it may be a stretch to compare an alpaca to the mighty Superman, no other animal has had quite the impact on Cattaraugus County tourism as the alpaca. Alpacas are native to South America, where they have been raised for many years for their soft, warm, hypoallergenic fleece. Recent decades have seen a rise in alpaca farms all across the United States. There’s no better time to explore this growing agribusiness than this weekend, when alpaca farms throughout the country are opening their doors to the public for National Alpaca Farm Days on Sept. 26-27. Throughout the weekend, alpaca farm owners will take visitors through their barns to meet the alpacas and feel for themselves the coveted fleece that makes such warm socks, sweaters, hats, and more. Visitors can learn all about the process of raising and breeding alpacas, and even meet the “crias” (baby alpacas) that were born this summer! Taking place during the first official weekend of autumn, National Alpaca Farm Days offers a fun, new reason to get out and enjoy a beautiful drive with your family.

ECS Considers Funding College Courses By Jann Wiswall
“This is what we’re about,” School Board President Carl Calarco commented during the board’s discussion about giving all students the opportunity to take college courses through ECS regardless of their family’s ability to pay. During the Sept. 8 board meeting and again at its Sept.
22 meeting, High School Principal Bob Miller pointed out that some students don’t enroll in college-level courses simply because they don’t want to ask their families for the money. While students must be academically qualified to take the classes, Miller believes that more students are qualified to enroll but do not for financial
reasons. “Who are we to judge whether a child can take a college course or not based only on their finances?” he asked during the Sept. 22 meeting. Miller has recommended, with Superintendent Mark Ward’s support, that the See ECS Board page 4
Hit the Slopes in Style The Hottest Outerwear Trends This Season By Alicia Dziak
Sure, being out on the mountain this winter is all about the skiing and snowboarding, flying down the hill with the crisp winter air hitting your face, riding back to the top and doing it all over again. But the trails are also like a downhill, snow-covered fashion runway, and being a trendsetter on the slopes is a breeze when you live or hang in EVL! Top-notch ski and board shops can be found throughout the village and at the resorts, and Bright colors fill the racks at Mud Sweat N’ Gears

At the Ellicottville Times, we love local success stories. We also love music. So when those two things can be combined, we’re all over it! Enter The Hootz, an unstoppable band with unlimited potential! The Hootz is led by Angela (Ange) Marino and her husband, Luke Marino, alumni of Salamanca and Franklinville schools, respectively. We have followed their journey to Nashville last spring, and to various local music festivals, and had a chance to catch up with them after a busy summer on the road. “We’ve been super busy this summer playing all over, from Cortland, NY, where we opened for Kellie Pickler, to Nashville many times, and of course playing some of our awesome local shows that we’ve enjoyed since we were just a little ole duo,â€? said Ange. Luke and Ange recently got back from their ďŹ rst, alloriginal showcase, at the Blackbird Academy. “Our performance was just under an hour long, and showcased what we look and sound like performing live,â€? Ange explained. “We were
Rock N’ Roll Weekend
lucky enough to perform for and meet some of the biggest names in the industry. I’m sure this is just the ďŹ rst of many showcases, as we tighten up our team, and move forward, but what a rush! We had a ball! We’ve had a lot of great feedback about our showcase, as well as our two demos recorded earlier this year at Ocean Way Studios. We have not released our newest work, as they are only demos of what’s yet to come. The fun part will be when we’re able to create the full length album. Everything takes time, but we’re always excited to see where our careers in music will take us next.â€? And literally, what’s next are some awesome shows in the Enchanted Mountains, including Seneca Allegany Casino Oct. 2 and 3, at 10 p.m. both nights, and at Fall Festival in Ellicottville, when The Hootz will be performing at the Armor Inn Ellicottville on Saturday, Oct. 10, from 2 to 6 p.m. “Back in March we played at the Armor Inn in Ellicottville and had a wonderful turn out,â€? Ange noted. “It’s always such a blast when friends and family
come out to show their support. We’re really looking forward to our return for Ellicottville’s Fall Festival, especially since we’ll have time to enjoy the festivities, as well.� This year won’t be the band’s maiden voyage at Fall Festival. “Luke and I love Fall Festival...we usually come down and walk the town and see the sights, but our favorite thing is playing music there,� Ange said. “In past years we played the Double Diamond and Kabob’s for Fall Festival, and it’s always a guaranteed good time! We also used to play the Gin Mill from time to time, and man does this town get rocking!� What can Fall Festival-goers expect from The Hootz on Oct. 10? “This year we’re really gonna be pumping the jams out, as we have our friend, Alex Sabuda switching from mando, banjo and lead guitar, and the newest addition to our band, Nick Thurkins, whaling on the drums,� Ange said. “We like to keep our shows high energy and spontaneous. You just never know if we’re gonna play some classics like Hank Williams, The Beatles, Jethro Tull, ZZ Top and Guns n’ Roses...or if we’re gonna mix it up with some Meghan Trainor, Lady Gaga, Keisha and Pitbull, or maybe a couple Hootz tunes to set the mood.� If you’ve been waiting to see The Hootz take on the local music scene, now’s your chance! Mark your calendars and check them out at the Casino and Fall Festival! To keep up with the band, check out www.thehootz.com.

The new multi-purpose gymnasium and all the other new spaces at Ellicottville Central School opened during a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the school on Sunday, Sept. 20. The ceremony featured student musical performances and speeches from board, administration and student leaders. School Board President Carl Calarco thanked the community, the ECS staff, the students, the project’s architect and construction managers and Superintendent Mark Ward for their critical roles in making the project a reality. With the opening of the new facilities, “this District is firing on all cylinders right now,” he said. “While many of our neighboring districts are experiencing…hardships, we are experiencing quite the opposite,” he said, pointing to increased enrollment, high state test scores, increased participation in sports, new staff and courses, success in extra-curricular programs and financial stability. The highlight of the event was when one child from each grade stood in a row on stage to hold the extra-long ribbon, which was cut by Superintendent Mark Ward.

ECS Board Continued from front page
board authorize the District to budget for cost of the classes beginning as early as this year, noting that ECS would not be setting a precedent on the issue: Portville and AlleganyLimestone School Districts fund the classes for their students. To illustrate the popularity of the classes, Miller provided the board with a spreadsheet that lists all college-level courses currently offered at ECS, their costs to students and the number of students enrolled in each. Fifty ECS seniors and juniors are currently enrolled in one or more courses (159 courses total) at a cost of $12,124 for books/supplies and registration fees. Several courses are offered free of registration; most charge for books or supplies. This averages about $76 per college class, earning students 3-4 college credits each. “Those are very inexpensive credits,” Miller pointed out. For college-bound students, they can mean significant savings on future tuition bills. With more students enrolled, the cost to the school could rise, but even doubled to $24k, which is unlikely, Miller and Superintendent Mark Ward believe the District should fund these classes so that all students
have equal opportunity. Following discussion, the board agreed to consider a resolution at its next meeting to pay for registration fees this year. District Treasurer Aimee Kilby was asked to investigate how refunds for this semester’s fees should be handled. It also agreed that a policy regarding the issue needs to be established before budgeting for the program next year. In other business, Shana Chudy and Tim DeChane asked the board for permission to use the ECS gymnasiums for the Ellicottville Youth Basketball program this year. They noted that the program for girls and boys ages 4-13 is growing and more space is needed for games and practices both during the week and on weekends. The board will consider the request, but Ward noted that the school needs to prepare some policies and procedures to manage use of the facilities both from a scheduling and a financial perspective, considering that staff will be needed to open and close the school and restrict use of other spaces. Ward thanked the board for hosting a very successful ribbon-cutting ceremony on Sunday, Sept. 20, which
officially opened the school’s new multi-purpose gymnasium and other new spaces. Ward especially thanked board president Carl Calarco for his thoughtful comments at the event. While there is still some work to be completed, all spaces are now usable, Ward said. SAT/ACT Results Miller reported that 40 students in grades 10-12 took the SAT exam 57 times last year. Twenty of those students scored 600 or higher on the reading component of the exam, and two scored 700 or higher (of a possible 800 points). In math, 15 students scored above 600 and an impressive six students scored above 700 (one of those scored 780!). While fewer students take the ACT exams, those that did had impressive results, Miller said. Last year, ten students took the exams and exceeded state averages in all subjects except reading (by .8 points). According to ACT, this means that all students who took the exam are ready for collegelevel coursework. The next meeting of the school board will be held at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 6 in the high school library. All are welcomed to attend.

becoming a style icon is as easy as stopping into one of them. And just what are the big trends that will get you noticed this season? For one, backcountry style has made its way to the forefront. According to Snowsports Industries America (SIA), high-tech, highperformance clothing is in. Top new features include seamless shoulders that are more comfortable when wearing a backpack, longer cuts to accommodate waist belts and relocated pockets for easier access in the backcountry. At City Garage, owner Sean Lowes said, “Our direction (this season) is based on fun and function,â€? adding they feature a lot of “multi-use layers to adapt to the changing weather conditions all day.â€? One such product is their top-selling Skhoop skirts for women, the original down skirt that can be worn on the slopes and in town. The skirts come in an array of colors, including the shiny new “chrome.â€? Do you prefer to blend in with nature rather than stick out from it? You’re in luck! SIA notes that the trend toward rich natural tones is stronger for the upcoming season than it has been in the recent past. “We’re deďŹ nitely seeing it trend back toward solid colors in earthy tones like brown, beige, dark green and dark orange,â€? said Spencer Timkey of The Boardroom, noting the trend is especially strong among men’s lines. Samantha Timkey adds that other colors such as “rich reds, dark plums and purplesâ€? are also popular among the men’s outerwear this year. However, don’t fret if being spotted from a mile away is

more up your alley. “We’ve deďŹ nitely focused on bright colors this season,â€? said Kim Reading of Mud Sweat and Gears, whose clothing racks feature a lot of bright pinks, blues and lime-y greens for both men and women. And while solids are more in than in recent years past, funky patterns continue to pop up. “For women, we’re seeing a lot of cute prints that have bright colors on dark backgrounds,â€? said Samantha Timkey of the Boardroom. And ladies—gone are the days when women wear a smaller version of the men’s style. “We’re seeing slimmer ďŹ ts that are more attering to women,â€? Samantha added. Reading noted that as far as kids’ styles go, “We’re seeing tons of bright colors and patterns.â€? Cool patterns for the smaller set include stripes, orals and camo, all of which can be found at MSG’s newlyexpanded children’s section. Trends that are still holding strong are the fur-trimmed hood for women and color blocking for men.
Do you only shop off the sale rack? If being on the cutting edge of slopeside fashion takes a backseat to ďŹ nding the best bargain, check out last year’s styles on the clearance racks all over town, or better yet, head to the huge tent sale going on the ďŹ rst two weekends in October. With last year’s goods from City Garage, Mud Sweat N’ Gears and Dekdebruns all up for grabs, you’re sure to snag some super-cool gear at a great price! You never know when you’re gonna inadvertently photo bomb a fellow skier or boarder, or be caught off guard asking to smile for the Ellicottville Times photographers as you’re waiting in line at the chairlift. Be prepared by looking awesome in the latest and greatest outerwear this season. Fashion mogul or not, we love to see everyone’s unique style and love to hear from our readers.

Guinness Project Challenge Jan. 8 If you were at the Bills game last weekend, you were part of the audience that attempted to set a Guinness World Record for the loudest crowd noise at a football game. You failed. Darn. But you have another chance to make it into the record book on Jan. 8 when you can be part of the organizers of the Learn to Ski and Snowboard Initiative (LSSI) to set the record for the World’s Largest Ski and Snowboard Lessons (WLL) – The “Guinness Project.” On Friday, Jan. 8, at 10 a.m. local time, ski resorts all over the country will be offering beginner lessons in the organization’s attempt to set world
records for the largest single-venue ski lesson, the largest single venue snowboard lesson, the largest multi-venue ski lesson and the largest multi-venue snowboard lesson. According to Guinness World Records, the record will be achieved if a single organization (in this case LSSI) can gather the “greatest number of people attending and participating in a skiing [or snowboarding] lesson at multiple locations…” To date, we know that Holiday Valley has signed up to participate, so tell your beginner friends and family members to get psyched! Registration details will be available soon.

Spooks Galore at the Scariest Hayride in WNY!
By Caitlin Croft
Starting Oct. 2, be prepared to scream and squirm as Nightmare Hayrides returns to Sommerville Street. This spooktacular event is hosted by John and Karen Kent on their farm, which also is the location of the Ellicottville
Rodeo. This year marks their 25th Halloween season offering the “scariest hayride” around. “That title was earned from the thousands of satisfyingly scared patrons we have had over the years,” says John Kent.
Along with the hayride, you can enter a few other super-scary haunted features, including the Gothic Chamber, Haunted Wooden Maze and the Haunted Barn featuring the Vortex Tunnel. All of these activities are included in the admission price. “Some of the haunts are scarier than others and our patrons are not shy about telling us if they are not scared enough. This is the kind of feedback we love and makes our workers strive to get the perfect scare every time.”
While you are there, be sure to fill up on the homemade soups Karen Kent prepares: corn chowder, cheeseburger chowder and chili are just a few of the featured soups. “People beg for the cheeseburger chowder,” Kent said. “We can never have enough of it!” Along with the soups there will be hot dogs, hamburgers, the delicious taco in a bag and other refreshments. Nightmare Hayrides run every Friday, Saturday and Sunday night from 7:30 -
9:30 p.m. through Sunday, Nov. 1. Admission is $18; children 5 and under are free. Reservations are not necessary. Seven tractors run continuously and Kent assures us that “if there’s a line, we will keep going until every person leaves scared.” So stop by and help the Kent’s celebrate 25 years of spooks and scares…if you dare! Nightmare Hayrides is located at 6319 Sommerville Valley Road. Visit www. nightmarehayride.com.

Health & Fitness
Exercising and Aging
Pelleve Treatment Before & After
By Kim Duke NETA & AFAA Certified Trainer
Purple Doorknob Continued from front page
So, this is a BIG year for me. I am hitting a milestone age, the big 50. Yikes…! As much as I am proud of how I look and how I’ve aged, I can still see the effects of aging on my body. As you age, you lose muscle and bone mass and may develop problems in your muscles, joints and bones, such as back pain, osteoarthritis or osteoporosis. Regular exercise slows the loss of muscle mass, strengthens bones and reduces joint and muscle pain. In addition, mobility and balance are improved, which reduces the risk of falling and suffering a serious injury, such as a hip fracture. Scientists used to think that strenuous exercise was the only way to improve your health. However, new research suggests that just 30 minutes of moderate physical activity, such as a brisk walk or washing
your car, provides most of the health benefits from exercise. The activity doesn’t have to be too vigorous. In fact, moderate intensity is best, but even lowintensity activity is better than nothing. While some people may enjoy participating in a regularly scheduled exercise class, others may find it easier to just increase their daily activities. The key is to find something that you enjoy doing and do it regularly. • Go for a brisk walk • Work in the yard • Go for a bike ride • Walk the fairways when you golf • Wash and wax your car • Play tennis • Go for a horse back ride It’s never too late to start. physical activity is especially important for older adults, and can help them live independently for as long as possible. A study of frail, wheelchair-bound nursing home residents in their 80’s and 90’s who participated in a weight lifting program showed marked improvement in their strength and overall functional ability. Staying active also lowers your risk of heart disease or heart attack, lowers blood pressure, controls diabetes and helps you maintain a healthy weight level. Many folks are afraid to exercise due to a chronic medical condition. These folks feel exercise can make their condition worse. In fact, it’s just the opposite.
If you have a chronic condition affecting your muscles, joints or bones, lack of physical activity can make the condition worse, or at least make it more difficult to live with. Medical research shows that physical activity is both safe and beneficial for people with arthritis, osteoporosis and other chronic conditions of bones and joints. You shouldn’t exercise during an acute bout of back pain, but by strengthening the muscles of your stomach, hips and thighs, you can relieve chronic back pain and prevent your condition from getting worse. A balanced fitness program of regular physical activity and specific strengthening exercises is ideal. Stimulating bone growth and preventing bone loss through exercise should be part of your lifestyle because once you stop, the benefits begin to diminish in as little as two weeks and disappear in two to eight months. Your doctor can help with a total plan for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis, including calcium, medications and hormone replacement for older women. You can expect to experience some muscle soreness when you start exercising, but it will disappear as you exercise regularly. Start out slowly. If one activity hurts too much, switch to something else. Of course, stop what you’re doing if you experience severe pain or swelling.

and children’s socks in every style and material to appeal to every sense of fashion, humor or adventure. But Shaklee lives in Bellingham, WA, owns a shop there (ModSock) and creates her own line of socks under that brand name. So she has her hands full and was quietly seeking someone who shared her vision to take over the Ellicottville shop. Enter Northrup. “I had been in the shop for the first time to buy a small gift,” Northrup said. “I walked out with six pairs of socks and marveled at the experience. I immediately posted a note about the shop, the experience and the business concept on social media.” Shaklee saw that post and contacted Northrup soon after. “She’d been looking for a good ‘mother’ for her business and couldn’t get me out of her mind.” After talking and learning about each other, Northrup made the decision to buy the shop from Shaklee this summer. She’s not making changes – the shop works as it is – so she’s retained all the staff and is building
“Walking into the Purple Doorknob is an experience in itself.” relationships with Shaklee’s long-time suppliers. She’s also keeping the upstairs “Alpine Attic” section of the store, which has great significance to Northrup and her family. “There’s antique art, decor and memorabilia available for purchase from my grandfather’s era during the time he was helping to start Holiday Valley,” she said. Northrup is well-suited to the job. She was trained by the “crème de la crème of Ellicottville’s retailers” while growing up in Ellicottville. She worked at Mud, Sweat & Gears and the original Adventure Bound. In fact, the giant stuffed gorilla that now models socks outside the Purple Doorknob was purchased with earnings
from working with Adventure Bound during Fall Festival when she was just 10 years old. For a dozen years, she lived in Colorado where she worked with Ellicottville native John Rounds, who is (re)opening Adventure Bound onthefly in Ellicottville on Oct. 10, as well as for an outdoor equipment manufacturer and a women’s outdoor apparel retailer. Since returning to Ellicottville in 2011, she cofounded the Bike & Bean burrito shop and started a personal organization consulting firm that uses Feng Shui philosophy and principles to help people declutter their lives. Having the opportunity to own and operate the Purple Doorknob was the perfect next step for Northrup, who emphasizes that the shop is not about her. “Walking into the Purple Doorknob is an experience in itself,” she said. “I want to nurture that and offer the same fun, wacky, practical and memorable shopping and giftbuying experience people have come to know and love.” For more information, visit www.purpledoorknob.com.
and tuning business in 1984. Owned by Mike and Jodie Timkey, the business began to focus on the up-and-coming sport of snowboarding way back in the last century. Today, the Boardroom at 6113 Route 219, is a well-know snowboard and rental shop that is literally steps from Holiday Valley. According to Spencer Timkey, Mike and Jodie’s son, when the opportunity came up to open a second location, the Timkeys were “glad for the opportunity to expand our retail presence into the Village.” And, Spencer will soon be carrying on The Boardroom legacy with his sister, Samantha, as they become more fully involved in both businesses. “For a long time, we wondered what it’d be like to have another location in town,” Timkey said. “And now, we get our chance.” The Timkeys aren’t the only ones excited about the new location. “When we announced the second location on social media, the response we got was overwhelmingly positive,” said Timkey. “So many of our customers have become our friends and have told us how they can’t wait to check it out when they come back to town this season. We’re so stoked to
get it open!” The new store will reflect everything customers have come to know and love about the original store. “We want this to be a mirror image of our flagship store,” explained Timkey, noting that it will not only carry the same product mix, but also provide the same high level of customer service. “We engage with our customers and converse about anything from the conditions on the hill to pro sports,” he said, describing the store’s vibe as friendly and welcoming. “It’s not hard to be nice,” he added. One major difference between the two stores is that the new location will not offer rentals or repair work. “The flagship store has an ideal location and plenty of parking,” he said, also noting that it’s the only off-site location to offer HV lift tickets. As far as the new space goes, “We’re putting in new lighting, new shelves and display cases, but many things, like the stone wall and hard wood floors, are staying the same,” Timkey explained. The Boardroom on Main will be located in the lower level of 16 Washington Street. Another
new store, Adventure Bound onthefly will be opening on the main floor. “The two stores will really complement each other,” Timkey said. “John (Rounds) offering SUPs (Stand Up Paddleboards) and other outdoors stuff will really lend itself to that outdoor enthusiast, who also probably enjoys skiing/snowboarding.” The Boardroom staff prides themselves on offering a wide range of all things snowboarding and having the knowledge to back up what they offer. They clearly talk the talk and walk the walk with a laid-back, unpretentious style. If you love all or anything snowboarding, be sure to make The Boardroom on Main a must-see stop on your Fall Festival agenda. And even if you don’t, check it out anyway—you’re likely to find some cool gear you didn’t know you couldn’t live without!

‘The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up’ by Marie Kondo Des Despite constant efforts to declutter your home, do papers still accumulate like snowd snowdrifts and clothes pile up like a tangled mess of noodles? Jap Japanese cleaning consultant Marie Kondo takes tidying to a whole new level, prom promising that if you properly simplify and organize your home once, you’ll never have to do it again. Most methods advocate a room-by-room or little-by-little appr approach, which doom you to pick away at your piles of stuff forever.

how Holiday Valley manages be listed in the top 10 year after year, Eshbaugh said, “It’s all about making it easy for our guests to have fun and enjoy the winter with their family and friends. We work hard to provide the kind of resort they want. Every year we improve and reinvest in the resort to stay ahead of the curve.” In March of 2015, Magazine readers were asked to rate resorts they had recently visited in the eastern US and Canada, and Holiday Valley ranked in the top ten in 13 of the 18 categories. Holiday Valley is the only resort in the top 10 to have under 1500 vertical feet but the ranking shows that while the size of the mountain is important, there are so many other factors that
add up to a memorable ski experience. Things that turn a good vacation into a great one include exceptional customer service, friendliness of staff and top notch facilities. Holiday Valley’s lift system, access to the resort, lodging, dining and kid friendliness were all ranked number 2. On-mountain food was ranked number 3, as well as après and off-hill activities. Service was ranked number 6 and terrain parks were number 7. The full survey and rankings are available in October’s issue of SKI Magazine and online at skinet.com. The 2015-16 SKI Magazine top ten resort rankings are: 1- Mont Tremblant in Quebec, 2-Stowe in Vermont, 3-Holiday Valley in New York, 4-Smuggler’s Notch

Eleven years ago the quilting group “Sew Many Friends” wanted to go on a retreat but not drive too far (they wanted more time to sew!). So they selected Ellicottville, and enjoyed it so much they kept returning. The ladies have been here in snow, fog, rain and 80 degree sunshine, and look forward to returning again! This past week, they stayed at the Wingate Hotel, and enjoyed shopping at the Ellicottville Quilt Shop.
