Art and Wine Event Art and Wine Event in Cattaraugusin Cattaraugus
Local Cattaraugus artist Dawn Lombardi will be showcasing her artwork this Saturday, Aug. 4, at Murphy’s Gourmet & Wine Shop. Julie Murphy, owner of the shop, has known Dawn “for a very, very long time,” and as friends and fellow businesswomen in Cattaraugus, decided this would be a creative pairing.
“Who doesn’t love a little wine and a little art?” joked both women.
“This gives people a chance to get to know what kinds of gourmet foods and local New York wines are carried in the store, and a chance to view Dawn’s artwork at the same time, in a casual and relaxed
setting,” said Murphy.A new, dry Reisling from
Johnson Estate Wines will be featured, as well as white ipocras spritzers and plenty of gourmet food tastings.
Lombardi will be introducing some new pieces from her “mini” collection, which are 3” x 3” and 3” x 4” acrylics. Her landscapes are composed of basic shapes and colors in a fun and whimsical presentation. She can be reached at (716) 597-6049, or email at [email protected].
The event runs from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. at Murphy’s Wine & Gourmet Shop, 18 Main St. in Cattaraugus. Call (716) 258-9215 for more information.

With another of the best Jazz & Blues Festival we’ve had here in Ellicottville in the history books, we now will take a week off and get ready for Festival number fi ve, “The Taste of Ellicottville”, which will happen the weekend of August 11 &12.
So as Ellicottville gets ready for our next wonderful event, golf might be a way to enhance your taste buds. Both Holiday Valley and Elkdale Country Club are in true mid-summer form and are just waiting for your call to make a Tee time and take advantage of the great golf times both clubs have to offer.
Now on to the music and other FUN STUFF that will happen this week. Starting today, Friday August 3, 2012 through Thursday August 9, 2012, we will have twelve bands playing , one DJ doing two gigs, a one-hundred-seventy-fi ve year Village of Ellicottville Birthday Party plus all the regular food and drink specials that take place here in the wonderful clubs and restaurants in and around Ellicottville.
A few notes before we get started, The PUB in Great Valley will still be LIVE music free. However, their wonderful, reasonably priced food and beverages, plus the local friendly GOOD PUB TIMES will be available for all those who stop by.
The Depot will continue with their summer hours, which are Thursday through Saturday. Their sound system will be playing a neat version of FUN in The Sun Favorites. Yes, their pizza and wing specials will be available. So as Moose says, “If Food, Liquor & Laughter are what you are after, “The Ellicottville Depot is your place”.
Kabob’s Kafe will be going strong in their new location on Washington Street. Their refurbished building, along with the fi rst fl oor bar, offers both indoor and out door dining, making for a really neat Kabob’s Kafe dining experience.
The weeks fi rst band performance will happen at 7:00 PM Friday in Balloons with a performance by “The Dawg House Band”, another really neat Buffalo Band. This four-piece “Dawg’s Group”, as they refer to themselves, plays a unique and versatile style of Rock, R&B and Blues. While much of their music is original, the cover tunes they do will take The Balloons Loyal Patrons down a music road that is less traveled. Following “The Dawg House Band” The Disoriented DJ Home will have “The Party Monster” also known as “DJ Chatty Frank” back under supervision allowing him to do two weekend party continuation gigs from Balloons Sound & Light Booth. As always, Chatty Frank will display his all ages friendly babbling and FUN tune selection till close.
Friday’s 9:00 PM gig will be the return to The Gin Mill of “Two Guys Drinking Beer”. Ron and Terry, from “West”, who are The Two Guys, will be doing their acoustic and FUN version of classic rock. Most of their tunes are cover. However, they do occasionally toss
in a few of their own very interesting tunes all of which are done in a unique style. This show will be very crowd involved and create another Really FUN Gin Mill Night of Music. Also remember The Gin Mill serves their excellent, yet reasonably priced, menu till midnight on weekends.
Saturday kicks off with St John’s Church and Ellicottville’s One-hundred seventy fi ve year Birthday Party beginning at 11:30 AM on the front lawn of St John’s Church. There will be all kinds of family activities available for all to enjoy. Then at 1:00 PM Mandy & Dave, an acoustic music duo, will be performing in The Town Park Gazebo.
Saturday’s music continues at 6:00 PM in Balloons with “Sandi Pack & The East of Eden Band”. As their bio says, here we have a veteran four-piece band performing several creative styles of music. With Sandi Pack on lead vocals, their creative styles include the blues, classic to southern rock and alternative country. They are winners of several Buffalo Music Awards and have supported many charity fundraisers. Balloons will be Really Rockin this Saturday. Following “Sandi Pack & The East of Eden Band”, “DJ Flakey” or if you wish “Chatty Frank, The Total Party Monster” will be back on duty for his second gig of the weekend in Balloons Sound & Light Booth. FUN chatter and neat danceable tunes are Frank’s version of Party Continuation till close.
Returning to 7:00 PM Saturday, “Chris Maloney”, an acoustic folk rock to country singer, will be performing on The Out Door Patio of The Silver Fox Steak House. Chris is in his second year of performing in Ellicottville. His shows have been very entertaining and FUN and will further enhance your experience in The Silver Fox.
Saturday rounds out at 9:00 PM in The Gin Mill with a new band for Ellicottville, “Katie Mallaber & The Krash Party”. This four-piece band bills themselves as Buffalo’s Newest Party Band doing cover tunes from Adele to The Beatles and from Guns & Roses to Carrie Underwood. What this means is you will here everything from classic to modern or contemporary rock with a bit of country thrown in the mix just for good measure. This will be a home run for the FUN & Music loving Gin Mill Crowd.
Now on to Monday, which will be a three band evening. First The Ellicottville Brewing Company at 6:30 PM will host their “Brews and Bluegrass Show” featuring “The Blue Mule Band” doing their really FUN and excellent version of Bluegrass with Heart. This band now being fi ve-piece really puts on a neat version of bluegrass.
Next, The Gin Mill starting around 7:00 PM, besides their “All U Can Eat Spaghetti Dinner” for only $6.99, will have “Home Made Jam” doing their “Country Oldies Pure & Simple Music Show”. Their
music and the performance of vocalist Liz Boberg is among the best we get to see here in Ellicottville. So stop by The Gin Mill this Monday to enjoy a great spaghetti dinner and wonderful music by “Home Made Jam”.
Monday becomes complete at 10:00 PM Sharp with Madigans Church on Monday. The Reverend Jack along with Deacon Dan will be doing their FUN gig consisting of original Honky Tonk to Rock-A-Billy to good time ROCKIN tunes done in their own unique style. Each Monday this FUN gig keeps getting better & BETTER.
Moving on to Wednesday at 8:00 PM, when The Gin Mill will, as always, have “Joe Wagner and John Winston” doing their wonderful “Folk to Southern Rock Acoustic Music Show”. This Gin Mill Tradition is further enhanced by The Gin Mill’s great munchies and superb wings which are served as specials every Wednesday. One more point, Joe and John just might have “Retro Lil Joey” join them with his spoon show.
Then on Thursday at 7:00 PM, The Town Park Gazebo will have “Paul Hage and The Mirage Band” doing, as their bio says, a unique version of world infl uenced jazz with an up-beat rhythmic sound of Mediterranean Flamenco Jazz. Mirage gives their audience a chance to hear different kinds of world music fused with contemporary jazz.
The weeks music rounds out at 8:00 PM Thursday in The Gin Mill with “The Weekly Notice Band” ROCKIN THE HOUSE. Again, “The FAR OUT Band”. Which is The Freddie And RT Outstanding Band will be on stage . Therefore, as we always say, Brian or RT or maybe both will join Freddie, making “The Weekly or Moments Notice Band” a Unique and FUN Gin Mill Music Experience this and every Thursday.

This Saturday, descendants of George Washington Grover “GWG” Bowen will gather at the old Homestead in Eddyville for the 100th anniversary reunion of the association of the family homestead. Descendants of GWG have gathered here for reunions since the 1800s.
“Reunions are all about getting families together and preserving ties with their past,” said Amy Courter Knodt, great granddaughter of GWG and president of the Bowen Association since 2001. “We are celebrating the foresight and vision to keep us together for many generations. It’s all about family.”
Family members from around the country will make the journey to the old homestead to renew their family ties. Old photo albums are spread out awaiting family members to reminisce about their connection to GWG. The front porch is waiting with rocking chairs and a feast is planned.
GWG was born in 1823 in Cooperstown, N.Y. When he was seven, he moved with his family to Orlando (near Eddyville), then Eddyville where he lived until his death in 1908. GWG owned a sawmill and cheese box factory and
Ellicottville Times PastKeeping the Past PresentBowen Family Gathers for 100th Reunion
was very active in town affairs. After his death, the house was occupied by a relative until 1912 when the family voted on the future of the house .
Ms. Courter Knodt, “Instead of breaking up housekeeping, they would keep it as a perpetual memorial and place to meet for reunions.” As a child, she spent a week every summer here with her grandmother and aunts from New Jersey.
Since then, the house deteriorated to the point where some felt it should be torn down. Ms. Courter Knodt’s attachment was so strong that 10 years ago she and her husband Harry Knodt began a restoration, supported by
the association, which has consumed every summer with projects to renovate the house to its original dwelling. She and her husband, a former public school principal with enviable handyman talents, have done an amazing amount of the work themselves.
Walking into the house gives one the feeling of entering another era. Well-preserved furnishings fi ll the house with wood-burning cooking stove, water pump at the sink, drywell in the little pantry, slanting wood fl oors, three dining room tables, period furniture and portraits of GWG, his wives, aunts, uncles and cousins staring down with stern eyes, which have frightened more than one Bowen descendent, to the point of having to cover them up.
Tiny by today’s standards, it is hard to imagine raising 12 children here with the small kitchen/dining room, two downstairs bedrooms, parlors and one dorm above for the girls and one for the boys. Harry continues to work on the old homestead, but the house has become a summer retreat not only for the Knodts, but also for family and friends who love to visit and bask in the feeling of life in another era.
Harry and Amy Knodt to welcome descendents of GWG Bowen this weekend
The Bowen Homestead in the late 1800s, Eddyville NY
It began innocently enough, a board across the bottom of my shed with bite marks on one corner had been ripped off. Inside the shed, garbage everywhere.
Two nights later at 3:30 in the morning, I awoke to noise in the kitchen and fl ipped on the lights in time to spot the ample ass of a raccoon scurrying out the screen door. The garbage had been ripped open, banana peels tossed to the fl oor, pawprints on the counter and tomatoes had been punctured but not eaten. Omnivorous except for tomatoes. That ballsy little son-of-a-coon. I may not have latched it but I know I hadn’t left the door open.
So that night I make sure the screen door is hooked and the next morning he’s been into the kitchen again and left a mess of peels, garbage and wet paw prints on the counter. The new bananas have been eaten, the new tomatoes punctured and the latch broken. I want to drown this chubby little varmint in a vat of ketchup.
So the next night, Friday, I go over to the golf course for a fi sh fry with my buddy Wheats and when we come back we sit out by the lake bruising a bottle of Balvenie and solving the world’s problems. But not all of them because that would require our meeting to last past dawn and into breakfast and we don’t do that anymore.
I tell him the story of the ring-tailed, break and enter artist and he fi nds it funny. He does not believe me when I tell him I am going to kill procyon lotor because now’s it personal. Tonight I’m going to remove the screen door, then seal and lock the whole house up.
At 11:30 Wheats says he’s going home and as I walk him up to the house we see the fat grey back end of a raccoon scurrying out of the kitchen screen door which is … wide
My war with Procyon Lotor
open. Now as we stand by the door, Wheats with a walking stick in hand and me with a baseball bat, one of us fi nds all this highly comical while the other goes into roadkill rage. That thieving little bugger broke into my house yet again with two of us sitting fi fty feet away! Oh, and he also ate my haddock and chips leftovers which I thought was a nice touch.
I’ve had it. I remove the screen door, lock the place up and go to bed. And of course I sleep badly because I’m sweating in an airless oven of a room all night. In the morning as I’m cleaning up the kitchen I notice blood on the fl oor. Mine. The raccoon besides ransacking the kitchen has broken an expensive Scotch glass and I have cut my bare right foot. Now I’m tracking blood behind me as I try to mop up.
Not only will I kill Rocky – no, not the one who lived somewhere in the black mountain hills of Dakota, the Beatles young boy named Rocky Raccoon. Not him. No I’ve named him Rocky after Rocky Balboa the boxer who beat people up for a living because frankly I am afraid of this guy. I think if he fails to break into my house again, he’ll probably steal my car.
So not only will I kill this banana-loving tomato-hating, nocturnal mammal with the burglar mask, I am going to have him stuffed by a taxidermist and mounted over my fi replace. Inscription: “His name was Rocky and he called himself Cocky but everyone knew him as Evil.”
So that night, I sleep badly again in a sweat box but stay ever alert for the noise of a trap springing in front of my kitchen door because I have two of them baited and set.
At two in the morning I hear something and rush out to discover that although both
traps are still set, the pieces of barbecued chicken are gone. I put more chicken in the traps and go back to bed. In the morning, the bait is gone and the traps again have not sprung. Rocky – and the movie will be a sequel to Catch Me If You Can – got in and out of two cages twice without tripping the trap.
I will not only kill this animal, I will mount his stuffed body on my wall and I will toast his demise with a smash of Scotch from an expensive glass, the one he did not break. Yet.
So I set the traps again that night by sewing the pieces of chicken into the steel rods at the back of the cages so that if he succeeds in stripping the bait yet again … he’ll need scissors. At about fi ve in the morning I hear metal clash and I race outside and well … guess who? Rocky didn’t look all that menacing with his furry little frame jammed into a cage barely bigger than himself.
I said: “Rocky you’ve met your match.”
He said: “Bill, I’m sorry about the latch.”
I said: “Rocky you’ll be dead, real dead as soon as I am able.”
Rocky was wrong to stalk me but Wheats was right to doubt me. I couldn’t kill that crafty little bastard; in fact, when it was all over I begrudgingly admired his audacity and work ethic. Rocky has been relocated to a wooded area on the outskirts of Niagara Falls. I’ll give him a few days and then Google ‘Niagara Falls home invasions.’ See how the little fella’s doin’.

By Eva PotterEven though summer is
winding down and back-to-school shopping ads compete for attention, it’s not too late to schedule a little more summertime fun at events sponsored by the Cattaraugus County Arts Council.
This past weekend marked another successful Art in the Park event, held in conjunction with the Taste of Olean at the Jamestown Community College campus in Olean. For the fi rst time, artists were interspersed along the sidewalk with food vendors, which “made for an integrated, positive, fun, family atmosphere,” according to Anne Conroy-Baiter, executive director of CCAC.
“We had a really neat mixture of everything from emerging to established artists selling everything from handmade wooden frames that were absolutely gorgeous to beautiful jewelry to the amazing painterly techniques of Jennifer Miller, who got Best of Show,” she said. Tom Martin was awarded Juror’s Choice First Place while Patricia Eckstrom received
Fireworks, Art and Summer Fun Heat Up for a Family Good Time
Juror’s Choice Second Place. The show was juried by fi ne artist Thomas Paquette.
On Aug. 10, families can look forward to a magical summer evening at Allegany State Park’s Red House Beach Area as CCAC teams up with the park for their 5th Annual Beach Party. The event starts at 6 p.m. and is completely free. The park’s Artist in Residence and veteran acoustic guitarist Jamie Haight will perform familiar music, followed by the musical stylings of Olean’s Blues Brothers and Generations.
Conroy-Baiter said, “It’s one of the most family-friendly, relaxing nights of the year. Families come, they spread out a picnic, they put chairs out. You can get dinner right from the concession stand, which will stay open for the event. It’s
a great place to sit back and let the kids run around in a safe environment.”
Also, there will be kids’ crafts, face painting, a limbo contest, a lifeguard competition, juggling by Gravitational Bull and a fi reworks display at dusk sponsored by the Zippo Manufacturing Company of Bradford.
“We are the lucky benefi ciaries of the park’s 4th of July fi reworks show that was rained out, so we’re going to have a spectacular ending to the event,” said Conroy-Baiter.
For more information, contact Cassie Wright at (716) 354-9101 ext. 236, the Cattaraugus County Arts Council at (716) 372-7455.
Are your kids still complaining of boredom? It’s not too late to sign them up for some creative fun at CCAC’s art classes. Openings are still available for the Aug. 9 and Aug. 14 Ceramic Series, Aug. 6-7 Matisse Class, Aug. 14 Still Life, Aug. 15 Beads and Buttons, and Aug. 17 Abstract Painting.

Three Winery of Ellicottville wines traveling to Shanghai ChinaLast Sunday was the two year anniversary of the Winery of Ellicottville, and they had reason to celebrate. In a recent tasting through the NY Wine and Grape Foundation, 33 wineries competed for orders to be shipped to Shanghai China. The three wines pictured were chosen for the fi rst order for the NY State Outlet in China. “For the short time we’ve been open, we’ve done pretty good, said Dominic Spicola, owner of the Winery of Ellicottville. We’ve received 15 medals in several US wine competitions. Happy Anniversary! And Bon Voyage!

The America’s Promise team at CCB (Cattaraugus County Bank) is holding a “Back To School Supply Drive” throughout the month of August. The drive is intended to provide area schoolchildren with supplies they may need but cannot aff ord.
Items needed include: Pens, pencils, loose leaf paper, pocket folders, glue sticks, colored pencils, crayons, spiral notebooks, highlighters, liquid glue, construction paper, scissors, erasers, poster b oard, scotch tape, stickers, wide ruled paper, composition notebooks. Even book bags, tissues and lunch boxes will be accepted.
The national symbol for America’s Promise, a red wagon, will be displayed in each location through the end of August as a drop-off location. CCB will distribute the
CCB Sponsors “Back To School Supply Drive”
supplies to local schools after they are in session in September.
“This is what we do as part of the America’s Promise commitment; we help children,” stated America’s Promise Team Chair Mary Jo Woodarek. “There are so many children that need these items to enhance their learning experience. CCB is pleased to off er area schools help in this way. Please look for the wagon and donate supplies. Without the proper school supplies, some children may not have the same opportunity others enjoy.”
“America’s Promise” members help to ensure that children receive
the fi ve resources they need: 1. An ongoing relationship with a caring adult-mentor; 2. Access to safe places and structured activities during non-school hours; 3. A healthy start; 4. A marketable skill through eff ective education; and 5. An
opportunity to give back through community service.
CCB is an FDIC-insured, New York State chartered, independent community bank. Since Jan. 2, 1902, CCB has established an unprecedented record of fi scal integrity and sound fi nancial growth, which now totals over 180 million in assets. CCB maintains convenient ATMs and can be found on the web at www.ccblv.com. CCB is an equal housing lender. CCB’s main off ice is located in Little Valley.

Letter to the EditorThank You for Suggesting Trail Concept I read the article in the Ellicottville Times about the recreational trail concept
and I absolutely love the idea. I love riding my bike and the idea of having a “safe” trail to go to is wonderful. I use the bike path on Route 219 (I live in Great Valley) and I fi nd it is a very nice path, but upon entering the Village of Ellicottville it stops, which means we have to ride the road. We fi nd it to be very dangerous, as a lot of the cars do NOT allow us our three feet that we are entitled to.
So, yes, Ken Hinman, thanks to you for suggesting this idea at the Ellicottville Town Board meeting. I noticed the article also went on to read “with Ellicottville’s strong focus on fi tness and healthy living,” which brought to my mind this question, “How about a brand new BIG fi tness center?” Perhaps where the old Signore building once stood would be an ideal location. A pool, sauna, classes, inside walk or run track … how does that sound?

By Eva PotterWhen Mike Hutten of
East Otto realized his 65th birthday was coming up in February 2013, he knew he wanted to celebrate in a special way.
An avid runner since the age of 42, Hutten said, “The NYC Marathon has always attracted me because I have a daughter who lives right in Manhattan.” Then, why not celebrate with a 26.2-mile run in New York City?
“I usually like to have a goal to achieve with my running each year, and since my 65th birthday is coming up, I guess I wanted this year’s goal to be something really

Mike Hutten running in Oak Tree Half Marathon in Geneseo, N.Y., which he will run again on Sept. 2, just one month before the NYC Marathon
special. In a way, it’s an attempt to combat the feeling of getting older,” he said.
As a registered emergency room nurse, Hutten understands the health benefi ts of exercise and took up running to control his high blood pressure.
Hutten said, “There were people at the hospital where I work who were interested in running and so it became a social thing as well as an individual experience.”
His daughter, who was on her high school track team, also inspired Hutten. In 1997, the father-daughter team ran their fi rst marathon
in Burlington, Vt. Since then, Hutten has run six marathons in various parts of the country.
The New York City Marathon is one of the largest and most popular marathons in the world. Runners can only gain entry through their lottery, guaranteed entry or their charity program. When Hutten learned he could get a defi nite spot as a fundraiser for EVERYBODY WINS!, he jumped at the chance.
The Everybody Wins! mentoring program promotes success in school and life for schoolchildren through one-on-one reading experiences with caring adults or older students.
“To me, it is an essential skill to read and comprehend what people are writing about,” said Hutten, who knew this program was a great match for him.
To prepare for this grueling race, Hutten trains when he isn’t working 12-hour shifts at the hospital.
“My base run is fi ve miles, usually done near my home, and I add in longer runs of 8 or 11 or 17 miles as I get closer to marathon day,” he said.
As of Aug. 3, Hutten raised $770 toward his goal of $2,500, which he attributes to the “incredible generosity of my family, friends, co-workers and acquaintances.” He is working with Hog-Shed Studio Pottery, owned with his wife Elliott, to develop an incentive plan to reward donors.

8 Eff ective Exercises You’re Not Doing!
It’s easy to get comfortable with a tried-and-true workout routine. But if it’s results you want, you’ll need to shake things up occasionally. “Changing your routine around every 4 to 6 weeks keeps muscles challenged so you continue to
see results,” says Tom Holland, MS, CSCS, author of Beat the Gym (William Morrow, 2011). Swap out your regular exercises with these moves to get more bang for your workout buck. Each week we’ll feature one new exercise you need to be doing. Start with 2 sets and work up to 3 when it feels easy.
3. Squat jumps (Works: legs, core, butt)
What you need: a forgiving landing surface (a rubber mat or grass fi eld)
How to do it: Stand with feet hip-width apart; begin to lower yourself towards the ground until your heels start to lift off

the fl oor, keeping your back fl at and eyes straight ahead. Pause only briefl y at the bottom of this phase and then jump up quickly, fully extending your legs, then land softly on your mid-foot and roll back towards your heels. Keep your abdominals engaged and your back straight throughout the movement. Start with small jumps for 10 to 15 reps.
Why you need it: As we age we tend to do fewer activities quickly, which results in diminishing fast-twitch muscles fi bers, says Holland. This exercise uses those fi bers and keeps them functioning.

and different nations travelling to the event, he understands organizers “trying to make the travel fair for everybody.” Though he admitted that having a short drive to Ellicottville would have been more convenient for him, he gave a number of reasons for making the trip to Seven Springs.
“It’s a lot of fun. There’s a lot of good camaraderie and great competition. I just enjoy the shooting,” he said.
Acklin’s friend and fellow archer Jim Livak of Dewittville said that having the event in Seven Springs just means that he has to “travel a little bit farther” and added that he

thinks the Seven Springs Area “is going to be a nice venue to shoot in.” Livak, who also competed in Ellicottville last year, will be in the open class in his second year in the event and said that he is looking forward to it.
“There are a lot of really good shooters in that class and I think it’s going to be some really good competition,” he said.
Auge’s Archery owner and Town of Ellicottville Chief of Police Don Auge said he “wished it was in Ellicottville.”
“I got some business out of it when it was in town here and I think that it really boosted the
economy in Ellicottville, and hopefully we’ll get it back in a few years,” he said.
Though participants do not need to be IBO members, they must qualify to shoot in the championships. The cost to enter is $40 per adult and $25 per youth. All registration postmarked after July 23 will result in a $10 late registration fee. A special lodging rate will also be available to IBO members and information is available by calling (866) 437-1300.

Master Your Gardenaster Your GardenBy Barbara Kozlowski, Master Gardener
What a summer we have had so far – hot, dry, and minimal rain. This type of weather has certainly raised havoc with our gardens. Except for a few new plantings and my vegetable garden , most of my yard has had to rely on Mother Nature to take care of it. Many of my fl owering perennials have bloomed, but the fl owers were short lived due to the lack of suffi cient rainfall. Most of them are draught resistant and perhaps next season will be a little more normal in the rainfall department.
Watering container planting is a no-brainer and these plantings should be checked daily. A good soaking in the early morning is usually suffi cient for a short time, but I advise checking these containers daily for moisture content. Some potted plants require almost daily watering during the hot, dry weather. Petunias are exceptional water consumers and will sometimes need water twice a day. If this does occur, repotting may be the answer. Moving plants to larger containers with additional moisture-retaining potting soil will help to keep your fl owers
looking spectacular.Another way to keep
your garden looking fresh is to deadhead any spent fl owers. Deadheading encourages new growth to keep your plant fl owering longer. If possible and if you love to do it, deadhead spent fl owers daily or at least every two weeks. The exception is for those perennials with seedpods you want to develop like the conefl ower.
If you have a vegetable garden, harvesting mature fruit is important to keep your plants producing additional fruit. Zucchini, yellow summer squash, cucumbers and tomatoes seem to have ripened fruit ready for harvesting almost daily.
Garden pests like Japanese beetles, aphids, mites and whitefl ies still need to be watched for in order to control any infestations. Powdery mildew is common among asters, bee balm, phlox and dahlias, to name a few. It can start on the denser foliage at the base of the plant where the airfl ow is minimal. Thin the interior growth to improve airfl ow and spray all the
foliage and other susceptible plants with a solution of 1 tablespoon of baking soda and 1 tablespoon of ultrafi ne horticultural oil mixed in a gallon of water. When the affected plants have fi nished blooming, cut them back to the ground to promote clean, healthy new growth. Destroy the prunings, and then spray the clump and surrounding soil with a fungicide for mildew.
Many garden centers are reducing their inventory of perennials, but check the hardiness zone and condition of the plants before you purchase. Plants should look healthy and disease and pest free. You certainly don’t want to bring any strangers into your healthy garden.
Fresh veggies abound at this time of the year and a simple way to enjoy them is grilling them at the same time as you grill your meat. I love to grill just about every veggie I eat and, with a little practice, even grilling Romaine lettuce is a snap. On Fridays, s top by the Ellicottville Farmers Market for a wonderful selection of produce and remember Wednesdays in the Arboretum.
Demolition is fi nally underway at the AVM (American Voting Machine) buidling on Jefferson Street. The building collapsed two years ago, and this initial demolition starts the process of reclaiming the site.
NOW OPEN! A Touch of Ellicottville reopened their store this past week, after months of remodeling the new store and moving. Now located at 28 Washington Street, is stocked FULL of wonderful new merchandise! Call 699-5385.
Love riding the area’s network of mountain bike trails? Then thank the Western New York Mountain Biking Association (WNYMBA) for its contribution toward building almost 40 miles of trails in the Ellicottville area, not to mention many more in other areas of Western New York like Golden Hill, Sprague Brook Park and Hunters Creek Park, and soon in Allegany State Park.
WNYMBA, founded in 1992, has continuously worked with landowners,
WNYMBA Spearheads Mountain Bike Trail Building
in Allegany State Parkvolunteers and experts to build safe mountain biking trails and advocate for mountain biking education. The club’s members have volunteered countless hours to build and maintain these trails, open to the public for multi-recreational use. WNYMBA is aff iliated with the International Mountain Biking Association (IMBA), which shares a similar mission.
Since 2007, WNYMBA has provided input for Allegany State Park’s
Master Plan and has advocated for the building of new mountain bike trails in the park, which will begin in 2013. With these new park trails, combined with an existing network of appealing mountain biking trails, Cattaraugus County and the Ellicottville area hold the potential of becoming major players in the regional mountain biking arena.

GRILLED CORN-ON-THE-COB
When you light your grill, place the corn in the husk, silk removed
(if desired), and cook slowly while your grill reaches the temperature to
cook your meat, rotating so corn cooks evenly. The husks will char and
some of the kernels, too. When the husks are fully dried and crispy, the
corn will be done. Remove husks and brush with melted butter seasoned
with pepper (no salt required) or any other fl avoring you desire. I
sometimes add lime juice and garlic to my butter. Serve immediately.
Remove leftover kernels from cob and use in a salad with tomatoes,
onions, peppers and Feta cheese.

may have a favorite restaurant and favorite foods, but with this festival, you really have a chance to expand your horizons with new and interesting fl avors.
The Taste of Ellicottville will feature 18 of Ellicottville’s fi nest establishments set up in cafe style in our historic business district. The event runs from noon to 4 p.m. Aug. 11-12. Tickets are $1 each and can be purchased at various ticket booths. Items range in price from $1 to $4 and will feature sample appetizers, entrees, desserts and refreshments.
This festival once inspired a cookbook featuring recipes for many of the dishes served. Many of those restaurants are no longer or are now under a different name, but the core of those establishments still exists and continues to serve the fare you have come to know and love.
Event coordinator Laurie Barrett, owner of the Birdwalk Restaurant, said she is looking forward to this year’s Taste of Ellicottville. There are many new sample dishes being offered and she wants to try them all.
See the 2012 Taste of Ellicottville menu to set your mouth watering in anticipation of this event. Bon appetit!
