Y. 625-2222 BEARCAT SCANNERS HEAR ALL THE ACTION AS IT HAPPENS Gural Donation allows Tioga Central School District to Slash Tax Levy in Half Community Shows Support at Polls The generosity of community mem- ber Jeff Gural allowed the Tioga Central School District to ask voters for signifi- cantly fewer new tax dollars. Gural owns the Tioga Downs racing and enter- tainment complex, but his $294,479 do- nation is a gift from him personally. The funds, which he intends to give annually for the next two years, will ensure the continuation of co-curricular programs and athletics. “Giving students opportunities to get involved in activities outside the class- room enriches their learning experience in ways that traditional instruction can’t begin to touch,” said Gural. “I have al- ways felt it is a critical component to a well-rounded education.” The donation will help the schools balance their budget for the 2015-16 and 2016-17 school years, while reducing the burden on local taxpayers. In May, , voters turned down a levy that asked for a 30% increase in taxes. Gural’s dona- tion allowed the schools to reduce the requested tax increase to 17%, which would generate about half a million dol- lars for the schools. That’s nearly a fifty percent reduction from what voters re- jected on the first ballot. On June 16, voters approved the tax increase. Gural’s donation was contin- gent on the community supporting and passing the levy. If the issue had failed, a contingency budget would have re- quired significant cuts. Upon hearing that the budget passed, Jeff Gural issued the following state- ment: “I was elated to hear about the new budget passing for Tioga Central School District. No child should have to worry about having crucial programs and resources that are necessary for per- sonal and educational development. To have hundreds of Tioga children at the press conference last week really touched my heart and I'm extremely happy that I am able to help the kids and their community. Thank you to all who came out to voice their support for the new budget to make sure that these chil- dren weren't deprived of a proper educa- tional experience that so many of us have taken for granted. I am glad to be part of such a wonderful community.” Gural has applied for the state’s final full casino gaming license for Tioga Downs. He has agreed to guarantee his donation for an additional three years if the license is granted. The gaming li- cense would generate approximately $1.5 million for both Nichols and Tioga counties, which would help prevent in- creases in future property taxes. Daleanna Prosinski was Crowned Little Miss Apalachin 2015 on Saturday, June 6, 2015, at the Apalachin Fire- men’s Field Days.

Every Thursday evening in Owego,
local farmers and food producers set up
booths on the deck of the Gateway Park
overlooking the Susquehanna River in
the historic shopping district in Owego.
They sell produce, eggs, homemade
bread, meat and cheese, not only to cus-
tomers strolling through the market, but
to the local chefs who set up outdoors
alongside them and use the farmer’s
seasonal offerings and their culinary
creativity to create fresh, flavorful
“street food.” This Farm-to-Table mod-
el celebrates the area’s diverse agricul-
tural roots, as seen in the quality and
variety of the markets offerings, and the
innovation of talented local chefs.
Farm to Fork is also a community
event where neighbors meet to share a
meal and watch live, local musicians
play to the backdrop of the serene Sus-
quehanna River. Visitors to the area will
get a taste of what Tioga County has to
offer in food, the arts and music, and can
enjoy shopping and browsing the stores,
antique shops and galleries of the Vil-
lage of Owego. This family friendly
event also has activities for kids, such as
hula-hoops and sidewalk chalk, and is an
opportunity to have youngsters taste and
learn about locally grown foods. These
evenings are unique, fun and an educa-
tional event for the community that
showcases local entrepreneurs working
together.
A few days before the weekly Thurs-
day evening event, the market uses Fa-
cebook to let the participating chefs and
potential customers know what will be at
the upcoming market.
Vendors are still welcome to apply.
Applications and market rules are avail-
able online at owegolovesshoppers. com,
and for pick-up at Riverow Bookshop,
187 Front Street, Owego, and at Cornell
Cooperative Extension 56 Main Street,
Owego.

Mobile Food Pantry Food Distribution - July 29 Low to moderate income individuals
and families are invited to participate in
a Mobile Food Pantry Distribution spon-
sored by the Apalachin Lions Club in
partnership with the Food Bank of the
Southern Tier.
The distribution will be held on July
29 starting at 1:00 pm at St Margaret
Mary Catholic Church parking lot, 110
Pennsylvania Avenue in Apalachin.
Bring your own bags or boxes.
If you have any questions, call the
Food Bank of the Southern Tier at (607)

In addition to the food pantry, the

dren's books
By popular demand, the Tioga Coun-ty Fair, which opens July 7, will offer Visitor’s Choice Pricing this year. General Admission to the grounds at all Gates for everyone age 6 and older will be just $5.00 each. Under age 6, free. Free parking will again be offered near the “Back Gate” on Elm Street, across from Save More Furniture. By special arrangement with Main Event Amusements, unlimited rides will be available Wednesday through Satur-day for just $10 each day. Children must be at least 36 inches tall to ride any Main Event device. Main Event is excited to be offering new rides in 2015 including Bumper Cars, The Zipper and the ever popular Scrambler. Most Grandstand Events will be by paid admission of $5.00 for everyone age 6 and older, under age 6, free. Opening Day, Tuesday, July 7, will be Free Admission and Free Grandstand until 5:00 pm. Harness Racing begins on Tuesday with a 1:00 pm Post Time. In addition to all of the NY Sire Stakes action, the Fairboard is pleased to an-nounce the return of the Jim Brown Me-morial Open Trot and Open Pace races.
These races are just that, Open, meaning available to most amateur, older and perhaps slower horses, the type of com-petition and training our late Racing Su-perintendent, Jim Brown was dedicated to. New this year will be the H. S. Mead Memorial Race Under Saddle, which will feature Standardbred horses being ridden rather than driven. It is the fair board’s hope that the Visitor’s Choice pricing will allow fami-lies to pick and choose each day which attractions they wish to take part in, con-sidering tight budgets all around. Also, returning in 2015 will be a full slate of “Open Classes” seeking entries from the public for competition in Cattle, Honey Products, Maple Products, Home Brew (wine, beer and cider), Horticul-ture (house and garden plants), Fiber, Domestic Arts and Crafts, Baked Goods and Canned Goods. Premium Books, explaining all rules and regulations for these Open Classes will be available at Cornell Cooperative Extension, Owego Agway, Ward and VanScoy (Owego and Berkshire), Quilters’ Haven and the Ear-ly Owego Antique Center.

The Owego Fire Department hosted its 3rd Annual Owego Fallen Firefight-ers Memorial Golf Tournament last month at the Links at Hiawatha Landing. Sixty-five teams and 260 golfers played in the tournament supported by over 100 sponsors making the charity tournament one of the largest in the Southern Tier. The monies raised from the tournament support two important causes that in-clude scholarships for graduating Owego Free Academy seniors pursing further education in a first responder field and building/operating costs for the OFD Training Facility. A $2,000 scholarship was awarded to Owego Firefighter and Emergency Squad Member Cara Jones this year. Jones, a Wave Hose Company #2 mem-ber, plans on pursuing a career in nurs-ing while attending Elmira College. She is a certified first responder and current-ly enrolled in the New York State Emer-gency Medical Technician (EMT) pro-gram. Jones has logged nearly 100 EMS calls this year. A total of $6,000 in scholarships from tournament funds has been awarded the past three years. Also, due in part to contributions from the golf tournament the department was able to complete the majority of Phase I of its training facility, opening the classroom building that includes a kitchen and fitness area, last October. Phase II of the project includes a “live burn” building. Tioga County currently does not have such a facility that makes fire simulation and attacks as realistic as
possible. Departments must travel to Broome County for this training capabil-ity. The Owego Fire Department prom-ised from the onset and has stayed com-mitted to not having the training facility project impact taxes instead funding it through charitable events like the golf tournament and Monte Carlo nights. The winning team of Scott Sanyshyn, Dave Brink, Tim Rose, and Josh Robin-son shot a 54 or 18 under. The winners had back to back eagle holes and numer-ous tap in birdies. They were sponsored by corporate donor BlueLine Associates owned by Owego native Rocky Silvestri who grew up on the Flats. BlueLine Associates, a Raleigh, NC based firm, is a leading business process management services provider and was named by Consulting Magazine as one of the “Seven Small Jewels: Seven to Watch” as part of their March 2015 issue. Con-sulting Magazine’s annual recognition of consulting firms places BlueLine in an exclusive group acknowledged for being a “hidden gem” in the industry. Silvestri is a former Village of Owego Trustee and past Fire Commissioner. The tournament trophy is on display in the Links’ clubhouse. The tournament honors Owego Fall-en Firefighters Matt Porcari (LODD 2013), Steve Gavin (LODD 2003), Rich-ard Beck (LODD 1993), Winfield Knapp (1965) and Roy Wiltse (LODD 1938). www.OwegoFireGolf.com

The Little Meadows Volunteer Fire
Company and Rescue Squad broke
ground on its new fire station and com-
munity hall on June 7. Community
members, public officials and the media
turned out for this milestone event in the
emergency and rescue organization’s
drive to build a six-vehicle station with
offices, a training area and attached
community center.
The dream to build a new fire station
became a reality for the 60-year-old or-
ganization when Talisman Energy USA
Inc. committed $350,000 to the project.
The remainder of the $875,000 project is
coming from the fire department and
rescue squad funds; natural gas impact
fees given by local municipalities, dona-
tions from local businesses and commu-
nity members and a bank loan. The com-
munity has supported the project so gen-
erously that the volunteer organization
was able to add Phase 2 to the building
project this year: a community hall.
“The support from the community
has been amazing,” says Mary Shaugh-
nessy, Fire Company President and
Building Committee Member. “We can’t
even begin to describe how much we
appreciate the generosity of those who
have given time and money to this build-
ing effort. We will give back a great
building that will allow us to continue
providing important emergency services
as well as a space the community can
actually use and enjoy.”
The current emergency services
building has several issues. It’s on only a
quarter-acre, leaving no room for expan-
sion and forcing emergency responders
to park offsite. The nearly 60-year-old
station reflects outdated building tech-
niques and is energy inefficient, driving
up operating costs needlessly. The facili-
ty is also not accessible to those with
disabilities.
The new and larger facility will use
modern materials and construction meth-
ods. This will make the new station
more energy efficient and provide con-
solidated garage space for all emergency
vehicles. Should the Fire Company and
Rescue Squad need to expand facilities
or capabilities, this station can easily
accommodate expansions or additions,
making it ready for the future.
The facility is being constructed by
JAH Construction, Inc. of Johnson City,
NY. Citizens & Northern Bank’s Sayre
branch is providing a loan to support the
construction. The organization is still
actively seeking donations.
