“Every year we play ‘Can you top this?’ Roy “Mooney” Harrington said with great delight. Harrington is the First Vice-President of the 2012 Chautauqua County Fair in Dunkirk, New York. “I love the hustle and bustle of everybody working to make this fair better every year,” he added. “It takes a team with a real, good old fashioned work ethic to run it for the whole week. For some of us, it’s just about 24 hours a day, and that’s what I love.”

The 2012 Chautauqua County Fair is slated to begin on Monday, July 23 and run through Sunday, July 29. The Main gates at 1089 Central Avenue in Dunkirk will swing open at 9 am and the Midway Rides will all start up at 1 pm. A complete 7-day schedule of events, ticket sales information and more are available at http://www.chautauquacountyfair.org/.

The Chautauqua County Fair has been one of the most popular family events in Western New York for 131 years. According to USA Today Travel this will also be the 201st anniversary of the first agricultural county fair ever organized in the United States. It opened in Pittsfield, Massachusetts in the year 1811, when the nation itself was only 35 years old.

The fair has always been about games, food and livestock. “If you took a group of people from the first fair in 1811 they would recognize most everything going on today,” say historians Drake Hokanson and Carol Kratz, authors of Purebred and Homegrown: America’s County Fairs (University of Wisconsin Press). Last year, USA Today listed the Chautauqua County Fair in Dunkirk as one of the top 10 county fairs out of the nearly 290 state and county fairs across the United States every year.

“We add great, new features every year to keep it fresh,” said Mike Ferguson, County Fair board member. “Take the Paul Bunyan

Lumber Jack Show, for instance. It’s action-packed. It has log rolling, axe throwing, hand sawing, chopping, chain sawing, tree climbing and much more, and it’s all done by world champion Lumberjacks.”

For fair goers who love speed, roaring trucks, flying mud and high horsepower competition, Western New York Off Road Racing on Friday evening, at the Budweiser Grandstand, is the place to be. “There’s even more to that than meets the eye,” ‘Mr. Mooney’ said with obvious pride. “Right after the last event on Thursday night we have to start moving earth to build the entire off road race track for Friday night, then rebuild it all over again for the Tractor Pull on Saturday night.” Roy “Mooney” Harrington was in the excavating business for many years and, one day, visited the fair “just to help out.” Today, more than 20 ears later, in addition to moving mountains, Money makes sure the water, the sewers and all the other necessities simply keep working, all the time.

4-H events have always been at the heart of the County Fair. Chautauqua County ranks 1st in New York State for number of farms, 5th in total farming acreage, and also boasts nearly 20,000 acres of grape vineyards and award wining wines. Young people who learn the practical aspects, the science and the economics of agriculture will be the next generation’s leaders in Chautauqua County.

“I’d just like to invite anyone at the fair to talk to a young person at a 4-H event,” said Emily Kidd, the Chautauqua County 4-H leader, and an employee of Cornell Cooperative Extension. “You’ll be amazed at their knowledge, their poise, their life skills,” she promised. “Then, ask their age…you’ll be even more amazed.”

The 4-H program in the United States was founded in Clark County, Ohio, in 1902. Today, 4-H clubs have 6.5 million members, ages 9 to 19, in every state and county in the US, the

Editor’s MessageWake up and smell the…Is it always the coffee? If it is, maybe you need a change. How about smelling some fresh air…or the sweet scent of wild flowers on a summer afternoon, or…well, have you mucked out a barn lately?

If that last one doesn’t sound right, think of it this way; that might be the sweet smell of success.

This week the Jamestown Gazette invites you along to the 131st Chautauqua County Fair where hundreds of the county’s brightest, cleverest and hardest working young people will proudly show you what’s in their barn. It all smells sweet to them, and you’ll probably agree.

George Washington said, “I had rather be on my farm than be emperor of the world.”

More than 800 farm animals; beef cattle, cows, pigs, horses, poultry, rabbits, sheep and goats, will each demonstrate for you the beauty of a hand tended, carefully raised creature. The youth of Chautauqua County’s 4-H clubs know they can wake up and smell something better than coffee every day. Animal husbandry is not an occasional hobby or a once-a week chore, but a daily lesson in responsibility and faithful care. They gain a great head start on life’s skills for later matters like parenting, business leadership and financial success…and it all smells sweet to them, maybe even like mucking out the barn.

And how much can you smell if your nose is stuck in a smart phone? Take a stroll with Eric Williams in our Faith Matters column for this week and see what a summer camp is like for young people without (gasp!) cell phones, iPads and Facebook. It is literally life changing.

And the lesson is good for the rest of us too, as Eric reminds us, “…in order to read the holy book of creation, we must first look up from our screens, get up from our couches, and venture outside where God waits to meet us with beauty, peace and rest for our souls.” Wake up, open your eyes and enjoy more than the smell of coffee.

I recently saw a bumper sticker that said, “If you tickle the earth with a hoe she laughs with a harvest.” But in this driest of summer seasons in almost six decades, maybe the harvest of the lakes and deep seas is a better way to go. This could be a fine day to join Vicki McGraw in the kitchen with a few new, exciting ideas for this season of drought.

Enjoy the read.

GLOBAL BUSINESS IN OUR OWN BACKYARDJBC Bachelor Degree Students Tour TitanX

Contributing Article byJessica Golley

Director of Marketing & CommunicationsJamestown Business College

Jamestown Business College ( JBC) students recently left the walls of their classroom behind to tour TitanX, an international supplier of medium and heavy duty diesel engine cooling solutions.

As part of the visit, students from JBC’s Global Business Perspectives class received a first-hand look into how a Jamestown-based plant conducts business across national borders to meet customer needs and demands.

TitanX Human Resources Director, Andrew Johnson, provided students with a brief orientation followed by a tour and presentation on the company’s international operations. He also showed students TitanX’s quality control test equipment that puts their products through real-life environments. “Our customers bring us their problems, and we find solutions to resolve those problems,” said Johnson.

JBC Instructor, Joseph Pillitere, said that he was pleased with the opportunity to expose students to a different type of educational experience. “While classroom lectures are part of their education, it’s important to provide students with real-life, hands-on activities that take learning to the

next level…it’s part of the JBC Experience.” he said.

TitanX operates three plants, two in Sweden and one in Jamestown; and three research and development divisions at each of these locations. In addition, the company has recently expanded its production footprint in Brazil and China.

Jamestown Business College offers business-focused Associate and Bachelor degrees and certificate programs that include targeted professional development activities. For more information on registering for these programs, call 664-5100 or visit us online at www.JamestownBusinessCollege.edu.

Contributing Article byWCA Hospital

Seven students from the WCA Hospital School of Medical Technology received their certificates and graduation pins at a special graduation ceremony held in their honor at the WCA Hospital Auditorium July 13th. The Class of 2012 Graduates are: Christine Chudzinski (Albany, NY), graduate of Canisius College; Laura Kobielski (Sherman, NY), graduate of SUNY Brockport; Nicholas Perez (Churchville, NY), graduate of SUNY Fredonia; Jessica Reed (Geneva, NY), graduate of Elmira College; Meryl Roush (Ellicottville, NY), graduate of SUNY Fredonia; Victoria Wilcox (Cattaraugus, NY), graduate of SUNY Fredonia; Steven Wollaber (Cobleskill, NY), graduate of SUNY Geneseo.

The graduation ceremony included remarks from Jon Sundholm, BS MT (ASCP), WCA Hospital Clinical Laboratory Manager, BS MT (ASCP). The invocation was given by Reverend Donald Ray, retired WCA Hospital Chaplain.

Michele Harms, MS MLS (ASCP) School of WCA Medical Technology Program Director, shared a “Year In Retrospect”, reviewing the happenings of the busy and challenging internship year with the graduates’ families and friends. “Unless you have been through our internship program, you have no idea the difficult and stressful yet wonderful year the graduates have accomplished. Much is demanded of them and to reach graduation is no small feat.”

The graduates reviewed the memories of the year by showing a video presentation of photos taken during the school year. Janet L. McMillin-Jaszcz, BS MLS (ASCP)CM WCA School of Medical Technology clinical coordinator, took a special opportunity to recognize all of the faculty and laboratory trainers for their dedication to the Class of 2012 and to the school. Mrs. Brenda Ireland, WCA Hospital Board of Directors chair, and Janet presented each student with a certificate of completion and a class pin.

Mr. Ronald Pittock, BS MT (ASCP) Manager of the Clinical Chemistry Laboratory at WCA, addressed the graduates. Mr. Pittock has worked at WCA Hospital for 37 years and teaches 35 lectures in clinical chemistry, immunochemistry, urinalysis and instrumentation. Ms. Harms relates, ‘Ron,’ as he is affectionately called, the favorite lecturer of the Class of 2012, often spending time after and during a lecture telling stories that bring the book learning to a real-life connection with their future patients.

P. Christian Yates, WCA Foundation Grants Committee chairman, presented the 2012 Murray S. Marsh Outstanding Student Award to Laura Kobielski. “The Outstanding Student Award is a wonderful way to reward and encourage a member of each graduating class,” Michele Harms states. “The winner of the award is determined by the primary faculty and education staff who have watched the graduates throughout the internship year gain and grow in their knowledge and wisdom as seen in grade point average, personal traits and a commitment to patients and community health.

At the close of the graduation exercises, graduates and their families and guests are invited to tour the WCA Hospital Clinical Laboratory.

For more information about the School of Medical Technology, visit the “career” section of the hospital’s Web Site at www.wcahospital.org.

District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, other territories and possessions and in U.S. Army and Air Force installations worldwide. In the U.S. alone, 4-H has 3,500 staff, 538,000 volunteers and 60 million alumni. 4-H is also active in more than 80 other countries around the world.

The Chautauqua County program currently serves nearly 500 members in 26 clubs. Meetings are run by the members under Robert’s Rules of Order and members learn leadership skills and orderly ways of conducting business. The also have a lot of fun and learn social skills. “We not only have third and fourth generation 4-Hers,” Kidd said, “we also have husbands and wives who met and fell in love in 4-H.”

“The clubs meet once a month,” Kidd explained, “but the animals need care every day. The program teaches young people a sense of responsibly; not only how to keep an animal fed but how to raise a prize winning specimen suitable for commercial farming. The meat animal auction and competition are a highpoint of the fair. It shows the youngster the rewards of a job done right.” The 4-H motto is “To make the best better,” its slogan is “Learn by doing.”

At the Chautauqua County Fair this year 4-H members will display more than 800 animals, including beef cattle, cows, horses, sheep, pigs, goats, rabbits and poultry. Of the seven animal barns on the fair grounds, five are reserved for 4-H animals. These include a Goat Barn Arena, which will highlight displays and competition in Dairy Goat Milking, a Harness & Pack Goat Show, a Dairy Goat and Meat Goat Show and more.

The Rabbit and Poultry Barn will host Rabbit Showmanship competition. The Horse Show Arena will present both English and Western riding and Showmanship, 4-H Gymkana Showmanship and the 4-H County Fair Fun Horse Show, Dressage, Drill Team & Parade Team shows and competition. The Horse Show Arena will also host a 4-H Dog Agility & Rally Obedience Show. Other events will highlight similar demonstrations and competitions of the other livestock on display.

In addition to the animals, there will be 1,700 displays of 4-H crafts and projects representing many other 4-H programs, including very active programs for urban and suburban youth in dog care and showmanship, automotive projects and many others.

According to the Cornell Cooperative Extension website, “ For almost a century, Cornell Cooperative Extension has worked in partnership with Chautauqua County government and Cornell University to address priority needs in agriculture, environment and energy, youth development, family services, and watershed stewardship.” Both the Chautauqua County 4-H clubs and the Chautauqua County Fair reflect the best of that cooperation.

New York State Association of Agricultural Fairs, Inc. is offering a $1,000 Scholarship and the Chautauqua County Agricultural & Fair Association will award a $500 scholarship to youth for specific

accomplishments in various categories.

“The Chautauqua County Fair is a showcase of all the best that our county has to offer,” Mike Ferguson said. “It takes hundreds of volunteers and paid workers and an army of vendors and amazing acts and performers to make it all happen.” Ferguson simply added an invitation to all Chautauqua County residents and any visitors from elsewhere in Western New York and Northern Pennsylvania.: “The Chautauqua County Fair…Get There!”

For more information, Jamestown Gazette readers may call 716-366-4752, log n to the official County Fair website, http://www.chautauquacountyfair.org/, E-mail [email protected] or Write or Visit at Chautauqua County Fairgrounds, 1089 Central Ave., PO Box 191, Dunkirk, NY 14048-0191. 4-H information is available by calling (716) 664-9502, Ext. 212.

Arts Council Opens Two Gallery ShowsContributing Article by

Arts Council For Chautauqua County

Arts Council For Chautauqua County will open two shows in their galleries. On July 16, “Tapestry - The Art Of Rogers Elementary School” will open in the Wright Gallery. On July 20 and 21, 3rd On 3rd Gallery will host public receptions for “Art Show - David Grice & Nathan Long”. “Tapestry” features over 250 paintings created by Rogers Elementary students and teachers. In June of 2012, Rogers Elementary School closed its doors, sending students out for the last time. As a tribute to their experiences at the school, the students and teachers worked with Arts Council teaching artists to create tapestries. These wall hangings hold the visual art of all of the students and some of the teachers from Rogers. Each class chose a different theme to base their art on. Represented are letters, numbers, seasons, word art, landscapes, portraits and more. Under the instruction of teaching artists Renee Pye, Tara Eastman and Kellyn Baron, the Rogers Elementary community and PTA came together to literally illustrate what they loved most about their school. “Tapestry” will remain

open through August. Two of Jamestown¹s most colorful artists join for “Art Show” in the 3rd On 3rd Gallery. Nathan Long and David Grice create abstract portraits. Both have exhibited in this space as well as in the Wright Gallery, Galactic Systems Forum and other galleries. Receptions will be open to the public on Friday July 20 and Saturday July 21 at 7pm. “Art Show” will close on August 17. Both galleries are located at 116 East Third Street in Jamestown and are open to the public from 10am until 4pm, Monday through Friday. The Wright Gallery is located on the 2nd Floor and 3rd On 3rd Gallery is on the third floor. Private viewings off-schedule may be made by calling 716-664-2465, ext. 227.

County FairContributing Article by

Cornell Cooperative Extension

Cornell Cooperative Extension of Chautauqua County’s 4-H program evaluated over 1,000 4-H projects including Creative Crafts, Conservation, Sewing Projects, and other non-animal exhibits. Youth throughout Chautauqua County have been working for months, and in some cases, years to learn skills and create true works of art. From photography to woodworking youth projects will be displayed in the 4-H Building during the 2012 Chautauqua County Fair. Youth projects which were evaluated on Saturday June 14th are just a small, but impressive display of the dedication and talents of 4-H members.

4-H youth are ages 8-19 years with varying experience levels. Cloverbuds (youth ages 5-7) are not “judged” and all Cloverbud projects are awarded a Cloverbud Ribbon. Over 25 judges spent one-on-one time with 4-H participants evaluating their projects. Judges evaluate using the Danish system. The Danish system allows judges to determine based on a 4-H’ers age and experience, if they feel that the completed project is Excellent (Blue), Good (Red), or Worthy (White).

Youth presented each of their projects to a judge in the respective department, for example; a photograph may be judged by a professional photographer. Each judge spends a few minutes with each youth determining the youth’s age, experience level, and providing encouragement and constructive criticism.

This year, 40 projects were selected to be judged at The Great New York State Fair. County judges select projects that are exceptional for the youth’s age and experience level. These items will be on display at The Great New York State Fair, during the entire fair dates August 27 – September 7, 2012.

You can get a first-hand look at the exceptional projects created by Chautauqua County 4-H’ers by attending the 2012 Chautauqua County Fair, July 22 – July 29 in Dunkirk, NY. Youth projects are on display in the 4-H Building where there will also be children’s activities, canine demonstrations, and public presentations. Youth projects are displayed with awards, Purple = selected for State Fair, Blue = Excellent, Red = Good, and Variegated = Cloverbud.

Community Foundation Grants $30,000 to Untangle Weeds

Members of the Chautauqua Lake Association have battled green all summer as they have been busy harvesting the weeds that accumulate around Lake Chautauqua. With help from the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation in the form of a $30,000 Community Service Grant, this type of green is a lot more manageable.

“A grant from the Community Foundation is important to our organization because the money goes right into the Lake maintenance effort immediately,” said Paul Swanson, General Manager of the Chautauqua Lake Association. “Every dollar goes toward removing weeds.”

The first $20,000 of this grant was awarded outright in an effort to encourage municipalities and other organizations that benefit Chautauqua Lake to provide $10,000 in matching funds. When that goal was met the Foundation awarded the full $30,000 to the Association. As a result a third cutter has been placed on the Lake in order to continue harvesting the weeds.

“We are delighted that the Community Foundation can assist with the management of the Lake,” said Randy Sweeney, Executive Director of the Community Foundation. “The Foundation is well aware of the importance of Chautauqua Lake and what it means to the county and the entire region. We want the lake to be available for all to use and enjoy in whatever manner they choose.”

For more information on the Chautauqua Lake Association visit www.chautauqualake.org. For more information on grants and the Community Foundation visit www.crcfonline.org.

Acclaimed Recording

ArtistBrielleto Perform in Jamestown

EditorWalter Pickut

Brielle is an artist. That’s not a job title. Art is the name for something that comes from the soul and can’t be held back. Lady Gaga told a reporter, “A record deal doesn’t make you an artist; you make yourself an artist.” The record deals come naturally after that.

“I think I was born singing,” Brielle explained to a fan recently. “I could sing whole songs before I could talk.” Brielle’s passion for music places her in good company. “True art is characterized by an irresistible urge in the creative artist,” according to one of the world’s most creative minds, Albert Einstein, who was also a highly accomplished classical violinist. Brielle is a recording artist, singer/song writer, electric and acoustic violinist with AGP Records.

Brielle is a rising POP star in the musical world, currently on tour with a live show slated locally for Saturday night at 8:00 at The Spire Theater in downtown Jamestown.

A native of Jamestown, New York, Brielle’s success has taught her truths she hopes to share with other aspiring young artists. “If you love it, work at it. Never give up. Everything meant to happen will happen if you don’t quit. It is a truth.” Determination and a passion for the art are the keys to success. “I write music every day,” Brielle explained. “I look for a mood and a tone that tell me a story, it’s like creating a movie where I can write the lyrics to go with it.”

As a role model Brielle’s message is simple. “Kids should know they can be good enough to be themselves. They don’t have to try to be anybody else.”

“My mom, Lianne, always sang to me,” Brielle recalled fondly, “and my dad was a musician, the first drummer with The 10,000 Maniacs, Tim Edborg. So I lived with music in my home. I wrote my very first song when I woke up in the middle of the night hearing it in my head. I recorded it right away on my cell phone!”

Brielle’s most recent digital album, “Brielle,” is now available for download at her website, http://brielle1.bandcamp.com/. “One Guitar,” an anti-war, pro-soldier song about replacing a gun with a guitar, is available as a separate download. All proceeds from the song will benefit Invisible Children, an international group of advocates for young people pressed into terrible, war time slavery as child-soldiers. Visit: www.invisiblechildren.com to understand Brielle’s commitment to the cause.

Brielle Live! The date and place to remember: Saturday, July 28, 8:00 p.m. at The Spire Theater, 317 East 3rd Street, Jamestown, New York.

My daughter recently returned from a week at summer camp. She had a wonderful time doing all the traditional camp activities--bonfires, singing silly songs, swimming in the lake, making boondoggles--and she learned a lot about God as well. But one of the best parts of camp from my perspective was that she had to leave her electronics at home. Imagine: a week without TV, computers, headphones, cell phones or texting!

As smart phones become more and more prevalent, we are becoming an increasingly plugged-in society, staying connected to the internet and to each other 24/7. The average teen now processes an astounding 3,700 texts a month and researchers are beginning to notice symptoms that mirror substance abuse and addiction. One psychologist says that this constant connectedness “fosters our obsessions, dependence and stress reactions.” 1

Now, I have to confess that I love my smart phone and all it can do, but this summer I am following my daughter’s example and working on unplugging. Summer is glorious in this area and I have been enjoying kayaking on the Conewango Creek and the Allegheny River and cycling around Lake Chautauqua. Along the way I have seen eagles and turkeys, foxes, rabbits, deer and groundhogs, not to mention birds and rodents too numerous to count.

Not into sports? Check out two treasures of our area--the Roger Tory Peterson Institute and the Audubon Center.

“The heavens are telling the glory of God; and the firmament proclaims his handiwork.” (Psalm 19) St. Thomas Aquinas once wrote, “Sacred writings are bound into two volumes: that of creation and that of Holy Scripture.” But in order to read the holy book of creation, we must first look up from our screens, get up from our couches, and venture outside where God waits to meet us with beauty, peace and rest for our souls.

Whether I pop downtown to grab a cup of coffee, pick up books at the Paperback Exchange, or just to stroll, it’s always a relaxing experience. During the summer, my evenings are usually booked with all the festivals and live music going on. Our community has so much to offer; you just have to explore.

Baseball Legend Willie Horton to Appear at Robert H. Jackson Center

Contributing Article byRobert H. Jackson Center

On July 24, local baseball fans will have an opportunity to spend the evening with Detroit baseball legend Willie Horton as he shares his most memorable experiences at the Robert H. Jackson Center during a “Conversation with Willie Horton”. The public is invited to attend this special event, which will begin with a 6 p.m. reception followed by an interview by Jackson Center founder/board member and local sports historian Greg Peterson at 7 p.m.

“The Detroit Tigers at the highest levels, including general manager Dave Dombrowski, have encouraged this visit as a salute to the long legacy of professional baseball in Jamestown, which includes a significant time as an affiliate with the Tigers, dating back to its beginning in 1941,’’ Peterson said.

Together with Peterson, Jamestown natives Dan Lunetta, Tigers’ director of minor league operations, and Dr. George Carlo, the club’s performance coach were instrumental in making the event possible. ‘’Willie has been an integral part of the Tigers’ history for the last half-century,’’ Lunetta said. ‘’In recent years, he’s been just a tremendous ambassador to the ballclub.”

Horton, who was named special assistant to Dombrowski in 2002, will be joined by other Tigers personnel, including Manny Crespo, who played in Jamestown in 1968; and Brian Peterson, the Tigers’ performance enhancement instructor.

A four-time All-Star, Horton was a fan favorite and a mainstay in the Detroit Tigers’ outfield, as well as a key player on their 1968 World Series Championship team. Horton’s throw to home plate from left field in game five changed the momentum of the Series by preventing St. Louis speedster Lou Brock from scoring a run in the fifth inning as the Tigers trailed 3-2. The Tigers won by a score of 5-3, and clinched the Series title after winning games six and seven, holding the Cardinals to only two more runs during those games.

Another notable Horton moment came during the 1967 Detroit Riots, when he left Tiger Stadium in uniform in an attempt to quell the chaos in the burning streets. Bravely standing in the midst of a crazed crowd, Horton pleaded with the rioters to calm down. Unfortunately, his efforts were in vain. The city burned for five days. ‘’It is a fascinating interplay between civil rights and baseball,’’ said Peterson, noting that portions of the Home Box Office movie, ‘’City On Fire,’’ will be shown. The documentary covers two tumultuous years in the history of Detroit (1967-68), culminating with the Tigers’ world championship.

In all, Horton spent 14 of his 18 big league seasons with the Tigers, slugging 325 home runs, and garnering an American League Outstanding Designated Hitter Award and a Comeback Player of Year. Today Horton’s number 23 has been retired by the Tigers, and there is a statue in his likeness at Detroit’s Comerica Park.

Admission to “A Conversation with Willie Horton” is free, though donations will be accepted. Underwriters for this special event are the Legends Group, the Chautauqua Sports Hall of Fame, and the Robert H. Jackson Center.

With the closing of Chautauqua Music at the end of the month, it is appropriate to take a brief look at the influence it had on our community. We recall the original location on 2nd and Main: the big gold letters announcing its presence and the gold record with a music note over the door on the corner. When the doors opened in 1973 we were listening to John Denver sing “Sunshine On My Shoulders” and “You Make Me Feel Brand New” on our stereos. This was before the walkman! We bought our music on LPs back then, maybe a few 8-tracks. It can seem like a different lifetime and this was the year that Chautauqua Music was “Brand New.”

Chautauqua Music has been an integral part of the Jamestown area for 40 years. It was the brain child of John P. Davis, a 1972 graduate of Fredonia State University with a major in music education. John had a vision to provide the community with a center where people could expect to have all of their musical needs met. Through the years Chautauqua Music provided not only outstanding products, but more importantly, a commitment to serving its customers. John reached out to schools, music teachers, churches, bands, and music organizations in order to increase opportunities for people to appreciate and enjoy music.

As a former band director himself, nothing pleased John more than to place a shiny new instrument in a child's hands and see the smile of anticipation on their face. He tried to assist the school music programs in any way he could. Periodic newsletters sent to music teachers as well as supporting music activities were high on his priority list. One year when the J.H.S band was on it's way to the Rose Bowl parade in Pasadena, CA. Chautauqua Music donated a King sousaphone to the band. A number of years later when the store moved one block down the street from its long-time location of 2nd at Main, the band helped relocate the business. El Greco Woodworking Inc. loaned two industrial dollies for the move and the band supplied the help. Napoli's Pizza Shop provided pizza and drinks. There was much laughter and singing as the band went to and from the two locations. Many of the students spoke of private lessons taken in the studios on their various instruments or of needing a quick repair that John was often able to do 'as you wait'. When the move was completed the band received a gift certificate from the store to use for instruments.

For many years Chautauqua Music provided the best in audio for churches. From custom design to repair of all types of sound systems, the importance of sound quality was well addressed. John and Marty were a great team at designing and installing systems so that the most important message of all would not go unheard.

Local groups playing every weekend or full-time

were a big presence in the community at that time too. Quite often you could walk in and hear the sounds of a very talented musician trying out a new guitar or keyboard or trying out a set of drums or a sound system. It was the place to meet 'like' musicians. Many a band was formed after a chance meeting at Chautauqua Music. Being a musician himself, John understood an occasional emergency. More than once John would receive a phone call at home from a frantic musician at a gig who was in need of something that was absolutely necessary or the band couldn't perform. With an understanding nod, John would run down to the store and open up to accommodate the need.

In 1982 John approached Sue Tillotson, professional string teacher and performer, about starting a Suzuki Violin Program. They were both excited about the prospect. Sue agreed to pursue the idea. Chautauqua Music purchased violins of all sizes to rent to accommodate the various ages of students. It began with a large group lesson room on the mezzanine of Chautauqua Music. The program grew and was very successful, continuing to expand and to include public school participation as well.

In 1983 a location was opened in Warren, Pa. This was a good location and it continued for a good amount of time until it became necessary to close to be able to pursue other opportunities.

A branch store began in 1990 on the grounds of Chautauqua Institution and continued for 10 years. It specialized in supplying the needs of students and professional musicians residing there during the summer as well as unique musical gift items. It was within these years that Chautauqua Music would have a Christmas location at the Chautauqua Mall for Nov. and Dec. of the season. Customers found this to be very convenient for their Christmas shopping.

This store opened every season until 2006.

As one can see, with the help of his wife Bonny, and their children, John was able to realize his goals, providing our community with an endless supply of energy and enthusiasm, and a commitment to spread the love of music to the hearts of people. John is one of those people who made a difference. We salute him. Since John's passing, many people have visited the store and shared with Bonny and their sons and daughters, the positive influence that John had in their lives. If you would like to share an inspiring story of your experience with Chautauqua Music, please send it to [email protected] .

Because of changes in the music business climate, Chautauqua Music will play its last stanza at the end of July. Starting July 19th, all inventories will go on sale. The family of John Davis would like to thank all of the employees, customers, suppliers and friends for their support throughout the years.

It has been a good run. Let the music play on!

Vitamin D3 has been in the news frequently in the last several years. Doctors are discovering that most people, especially in the Northeast, are deficient in this important vitamin. How do you know if you are getting enough of this crucial vitamin?

First, let’s define Vitamin D. There are two types of Vitamin D that we will discuss. Vitamin D2 “is produced by irradiating yeast with ultraviolet light” (Townsend Letter for Doctors) and is called ergocalciferol. The same newsletter states “Vitamin D3 is a naturally occurring form of Vitamin D that occurs in the human body (when it is exposed to sunlight) and is called cholecalciferol.” Therefore, Vitamin D3 is called the sunshine vitamin and is the

type of Vitamin D we will be addressing.

Symptoms of deficiency include muscle pain, weak bones/fractures, low energy, fatigue, lowered immunity, depression, mood swings, and sleep irregularities. According to the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition “Vitamin D deficiency is often misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia.” New research from McGill University in Canada suggests that inability to lose weight is connected to low levels of Vitamin D3.

Readers Digest had an interesting article in September of 2006 on Vitamin D3. The article stated that Vitamin D3 “may prevent cancer, protect against heart disease and ward off a long list of disorders such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes and gum disease. It is even showing promise as a treatment for heart disease and some cancers.” Following is a list of “facts” compiled from medical journals by Dr. Hugo Rodier, a practicing physician in Utah.

Vitamin D3 levels drop by 40% during the winter months in the NortheastVit D is more important than calcium intake in maintaining bone healthVit D reduces the risk of prostate cancerVit D is lacking in colon cancer and in gingivitisVit D levels above 80 reduce risk of residence in a

nursing homeVit D deficiency is common in obese kidsVit D reduces breast cancer risk and strengthens the immune system.

The benefits of Vitamin D3 supplementation increase every day!

So what can YOU do to be sure you are getting enough of this wonderful vitamin? First, we suggest exposure to the sun for 15 to 20 minutes a day with no sunscreen or makeup. Research now indicates that Vitamin D receptors are found throughout the body. Health Gems states that “studies indicate that one full-body exposure to sunlight (enough time to just start to sunburn) can be equivalent to an oral vitamin D intake of 10,000 i.u.

Second, ask your doctor to do a blood test to determine your blood levels of Vitamin D3. Because the range is wide and varied, ask your doctor for a number. Best levels are above 75. Third, supplement with a good-quality Vitamin D3 daily. Obviously, this is much more important September through May when the sun isn’t as strong; however, we also recommend lower i.u. supplementation throughout the summer as well as exposure to the sun.

For further information, call us at Herbs R-4-U, Inc. at 1465 Foote Avenue, Jamestown, NY 716 484-0477.

What a summer we are having! I don’t ever recall having a warmer, dryer

summer…it has been great for outdoor events but not so much for the farmers. The fields are parched and sad looking in many areas! We had a wonderful week’s vacation earlier this month traveling south to Virginia Beach. We enjoyed the trip immensely, but were saddened by the condition of the crops along the way, and I now worry about how the market prices will increase because of the lower yield of the crops. It is a matter of supply and demand….

One thing that was plentiful on our vacation was seafood! I think I had seafood of varying types every day. Raw or steamed, broiled or grilled…I love it all! When I travel I always try to be adventurous at meal time… Why eat the same things I can eat at home when there are new and unusual local specialties to try? And not just the food, but restaurants, as well; we can go to a

chain restaurant at home any time, so we like to look for places the local residents go, those not on the “main drag,” if you will! I like to get away from the main road and look for a place that has a lot of cars in the parking lot. Locals always know the best places to go!

One of our kid’s favorite restaurants in Virginia Beach is a huge seafood buffet. I am not over-estimating when I say they have at least one hundred different seafood dishes on the buffet. It is a gastronomic explosion of flavor combinations and presentations. I am very adventurous, so my plate will usually contain a spoonful of most everything I can’t identify on the buffet! How do you know you don’t like it if you’ve never tried it? Casseroles, of course, such as seafood and pasta, but also many different fresh fish varieties, some stuffed, others broiled, baked or fried. Shell fish galore: clams, oysters, mussels, shrimp, crab legs and soft shells, all prepared in both traditional and unique ways. Cold salads as well as soups; the list of dishes was never ending and always quickly replenished. I can’t imagine the flow in the kitchen!

When I get home from a restaurant, the first thing I find myself doing is trying to figure out the recipes of my favorite dishes. This usually leads me to the supermarket to pick up any ingredients that I don’t think I can get at home…thus the need for an extra piece of luggage for the trip home! When I do get home, I find my purse stuffed with scraps of paper with recipe ideas scribbled on them.

Such is the life of a “foodie”…you can never really leave the kitchen!

Following this most recent trip, I came home with two new seasonings, am working on recipes for four new entrees, and can’t wait to start thinking about the next type of food I want to try!

Westfield Arts Festival To Host Live Music For The First Time;Diverse Lineup Of Area Performers Have Volunteered Their Support

Contributing Article byWestfield yWCA

For the first time in its 40-year history, the Westfield Arts & Crafts Festival will feature a program of live music on July 27th and 28th . Throughout both days of this annual event, visitors will be entertained by a diverse assortment of musicians performing in a wide array of musical genres.

The music will originate from the gazebo in Moore Park, located within sight of the intersection of Routes 20 and 395 in Westfield, NY. The performers also will be offering CDs and other merchandise for sale on the grounds.

Hosted by the popular folk music duo, Doc & Bill ( John “Doc” Hamels and Bill Drellow), the two days of music will range from veteran Chautauqua County singer-songwriter Bill Ward, to a group of music

students from the Infinity Visual and Performing Arts Center in nearby Jamestown, NY. Whatever the direction of one’s taste in acoustic music – pop, folk, jazz, celtic – there will be plenty to be enjoyed.

All of the performers are donating their services to the festival, which serves as the primary annual fund-raising event for the non-profit Westfield YWCA.

The shows on Friday will start off with Doc and Bill at 11 AM, followed by the Bonnie Loch Fiddlers, Jim Turner, the Infinity Performing Arts Showcase and Bill Ward. The day will end with a 4 PM show from Doc and Bill.

On Saturday Doc and Bill will open the day with a 10 AM performance, followed by Dave Issler, Dan O’Connell, Doc and Bill and Crippled Fingers. The 3 PM slot remains open and the lineup for both days is subject to change.
