“Jamestown has a great reputation for putting
great audiences in the seats for America’s funniest
comedians,” Journey Gunderson said. “America’s
comics love Jamestown.” It’s the 2016 Lucille Ball
Comedy Festival, the 25th Anniversary edition.
Lucy Desi promises it will be the best ever.
Journey should know.
As Executive Director at the Center for Comedy,
it is she and her team who pick the comedians that
come to Jamestown every year. “Nobody ever turns
us down,” Journey said, “unless they already have
something booked when we call. This is America’s
town for comedy.”
In this edition, the Jamestown Gazette invites our
readers to come along with us to enjoy some candid
chats and off-the-cuff conversations with a few of
Lucy Fest-25’s biggest stars.

The Daily Show’s popular TV host, Trevor Noah,
will take to the stage at The Reg on Friday, August
5. On Saturday, August 6, Brian Regan, who recently
earned the honor of the first ever live broadcast of
a stand-up special in Comedy Central’s history, will
fill the house with laughter at the Jamestown Savings
Bank Arena.
A Talk with the Stars
Lewis Black
JG: Welcome back to Jamestown, Lewis Black.
Lewis: Thank you. I love coming up there.
JG: What’s the best thing
about performing
at Lucy Fest?
Lewis: Well, I
know almost
everybody
performing
there and it’s
nice to see friends on the road. But I like your
audiences, too. It’s like they want to see you. You’re
not just another show. This is actually my fourth
visit. I performed there two times before Lucy Fest1 I didn’t have much of a name yet. Probably nobody
remembers. (Laughs). But I liked it there. Now, at
least, they call me back.
JG: Was Lucille Ball an influence in your comedy?
Lewis: I watched her. Everybody did. But she was
more into physical comedy. That’s not the way I
went. She was a genius at it. It’s too bad we don’t
see that kind of comedy any more on TV. It’s a loss.
JG: Is there a female comedian you like today?
Lewis: Lots of them, but I really like Kathleen
Madigan. She was in Jamestown last year. She’s my
favorite.
JG: Are small town audiences like Jamestown
different from big city audiences?
Lewis: That ended with cable. There are no small
towns any more. Everybody can see everything,
all the time. But when you go to a small town in
person, as my manager says, people with tickets are

EDITOR’S MESSAGE
August 1, 2016
E
ditorial
Better yet, what is that funny
thing we call laughing,
anyway?
It's unsuccessful if they don't
laugh.”
Everybody knows, of course.
Just watch a child play or a good
comedian take to the stage or
somebody tuning in to silly kittens on the Internet.
If it makes you laugh, it’s funny. If it don’t, it ain’t.
I like that one. As a matter of fact, what’s so funny
is a lot like what that famous, ancient Greek
comedian, Plato, once said. “Beauty lies in the
eye of the beholder.”
But nobody really knows. The brainiacs who have
to figure things out in order to stay happy can’t
dissect a joke as if it were a frog in anatomy class
and find the funny inside. When you take the
poor thing apart it dies.
So, if you accept this week’s invitation from the
Jamestown Gazette – or anybody else among the
happy hoards of volunteers and staff connected
with the 2016 Lucille Ball Comedy Festival – go
enjoy the comedy of your choice.
Here’s what it looks like to at least one scientist
I know: “Laughter is a physiological response in
the brain that produces a set of simultaneous,
rhythmic sounds and gestures and uses 15 facial
muscles.” Hilarious, right?
Even jolly old King James reported, “A merry
heart doeth good like a medicine…” (Proverbs
17:22).
But, believe it or not, somebody actually found
the funniest joke in the world. Really. It was
a psychologist named Richard Wiseman who
launched a website to harvest the best laugh bait
he could find from all around Planet Earth. He
pulled in 41,000 jokes and 1.5 million votes. So,
here’s the funniest joke in the world:
Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them
collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his
eyes are glazed. The other guy whips out his phone
and calls 911. He gasps, "My friend is dead! What
can I do?" The operator says "Calm down. I can
help. First, let's make sure he's dead." There is a
silence, then a shot is heard. Back on the phone, the
guy says "OK, now what?"
OK, that’s my question, too. Now what? Actually,
I’ve only heard one explanation that I like
for what’s really so funny. HBO and Comedy
Central comedy star, Kumail Nanjiani, said,
“Stand-up [comedy] is successful if they laugh.
Go take your medicine. It is good for you. Just
remember, in life there is more to laugh at that
the other guy. Ethel Barrymore once explained,
“You grow up the day you have the first real laugh
at yourself.”
During the month of August in every one of the
last 25 years, the country’s best comedians have
made a happy pilgrimage to Jamestown, today’s
new Mecca of what’s so funny. They come just
to make you – and 10 or 20 thousands of your
closest friends – laugh out loud. Enjoy!
Irish actor, Kenneth Branagh (actually, Sir
Kenneth), though not a comedian himself, offers
this bit of advice: “Lighten up, just enjoy life,
smile more, laugh more, and don't get so worked
up about things.”
And, of course, enjoy the read.

Contributing Writer
Pastor Shawn Hannon
Hope Lutheran Church Arcade, NY
With the Democratic and Republican
National Conventions in the rearview
mirror, the race is officially on. Hillary
Clinton and Donald Trump are racing
against one another to become the next
president of the United States, and we
are in store for a show. A very expensive
show. Some economists estimate that
the cost of this election could end up
anywhere between 5 and 10 billion
dollars. Just to be clear, that was billion.
You know, with a b.
The amount of money spent on
political campaigns in staggering,
but what’s most staggering about it is
where most of it comes from. Most of
it comes from special interest groups.
The Koch brothers, for example,
are planning to spend $900 million
dollars (Bloomberg.com).
They
are doing so for one simple reason:
to protect their interests and make
their wealth secure even if it is at the
expense of others. It’s greed. Greed
has turned our elections into a matter
of the funds of some people instead
of a matter of the will of the people.
But Jesus said before we look at the
twig in our neighbor’s eye, we must
first address the logs in our own for we
too possess an excellent disposition to
greed. Jesus once told a parable about
a landowner whose land produced
abundantly. Each harvest he’d end up
with so many crops he didn’t know
what to do with them all. So, he
thought, I’ll just build bigger barns.
Finally, he had so much stored up he
resigned himself to spending the rest
of his days relaxing, eating, drinking,
and generally being merry. But God
said to the man, “You fool! This very
night your life is being demanded of
you. And the things you have prepared,
whose will they be?”
Greed, it turns out, is useless. We’ve all
heard it a thousand times, but it bears
repeating. All of the things we collect in
life, we cannot take them with us. The
riches that we are called to gather are
only found in God.
We should each regret that we live in
a country were millions of people are
hungry while billions of dollars are
spent smearing political opponents.
But that does not mean we have to live
in houses like that. May we not store
up treasures for ourselves, but seek
instead to be rich toward God. May
we seek hope that overcomes despair,
courage that conquers our fears,
light that vanquishes darkness, and
faithfulness that draws us always closer
to God our maker and redeemer. And
then may we find that we not only
spend the rest of earthly days eating,
drinking, and being merry, but the
rest of eternity doing the same.

JOIN ME IN THE KITCHEN with Vicki McGraw
Kids Cooking
created a lifetime of creative cooks!
Contributing Writer
Vicki McGraw
Well friends, since we last met I have been
very busy! In addition to all of our usual
summer catering, my last two weeks have
been spent at JCC teaching first “Be the
Next Cake Boss” and “Advanced Cake
Boss” during this year’s annual Kid’s
College (ages 8-12) and “Chopped” for
“Tweens to Teens” (ages 10-14) week.
Was I ever blessed with a terrific bunch
of kids and a wonderful assistant in each
of my four classes!
Allowing kids in the kitchen with you
is such an amazing experience for not
just the kids, but the grownup as well.
The kids I have had the pleasure of
working with these past weeks were
totally into cooking. They were fearless
when it came to trying new things,
and boy did we step outside the box
ingredient wise! For my older group,
we took our “Chopped” competition
to the extreme! Their mystery baskets
held everything from beef tenderloin
to lamb chop lollypops to squid! They
met each challenge with fresh ideas
and open minds! And they TASTED
new things. I was very impressed…I
heard very few YUCKS during the
week as the kids sampled and savored
their creations. As the saying goes,
show me how to fish and I will eat for a
day, TEACH me how to fish and I will
eat for a lifetime…and I think we have
While this was not my first time
working with the older teens to tweens
group, I was again blown away by their
interest and knowledge! Many of them
seemed to be as dedicated disciples of
the Cooking Network as I am! They
know the chefs, the shows and the
jargon. Watching them in the kitchen
made me smile as they transformed
themselves into professional chefs.
We practiced measuring and knife
skills and hopefully they learned a few
“tricks of the trade” from yours’ truly.
I was amazed the progress and
teamwork the kids showed just over
the course of the four day session.
They learned about butchering and
baking, seasoning and sauteeing. Each
day brought a new mystery basket, but
as on the show, the kids had to come
up with their own recipes for their
creation. I watched as their eyes lit
up with excitement when they placed
their finished plates in front of the
judges. They had successes as well as
a few failures in the kitchen, but we
laughed through it all.
The next time you have some free time,
why not turn off the electronics and
turn on the stove? Grab the kids and a
cookbook, blow the dust off the cover,
let it fall open and cook whatever recipe
you see first! Or just open the cupboard
and fridge and grab a few ingredients
and start throwing stuff together. Add
the ingredients you find, but don’t
forget to add an extra heaping spoonful
of love!! It will not only feed your body,
but nourish your heart and soul!

THE EVERYDAY
HUNTER

Score One for a
Budding Conservationist

other artifacts, and the original 8-year old’s masterpiece.
a bear. I want to kill something big.”
I started out and when I got a little ways into
the woods I saw a bear! I raised my gun to
my shoulder. Boom! I shot, the bear fell. I was
very happy that day. I ran home to tell my
father. He came to help drag the bear out.
That night I was busy eating the bear. I ate
and ate. Then my father said, “I guess you are
ready for a bigger gun.” So my father gave me
his gun and he bought a new one.
Contributing Writer
Steve Sorensen
Have you ever read a hunting story written
by an 8-year old? A few weeks ago we were
hoeing out the basement and came across a
box my mother had given me about 30 years
ago containing some mementos of the highwater marks in my young life. I found all my
report cards, my SAT scores, a newspaper
clipping covering one of my Hot Stove League
baseball successes, and other artifacts from my
childhood. No surprises, until I spotted my first
effort at outdoor writing.
It was a fictional handwritten composition, 200
words long, and was strangely titled “Going
West in a Covered Wagon.” It had nothing
to do with covered wagons, or going west.
Maybe I was studying Conestoga wagons in my
American history class. Or maybe I had been
watching “Wagon Train” on TV. Those are a
couple of guesses, but either way I’m still not
good at titles.
Here it is for your reading pleasure (or
displeasure, as the case may be), mistakes
and all.
Going West in a Covered Wagon
Once long ago my family were going West
in a covered wagon. We were waiting by the
river. One day I thought I would go hunting.
I got my gun and started out. When I got to
the woods I stopped and I saw three baby
fawns with their mother. I walked slowly
away from them. Then I turned around and
started out.
I saw a rabbit and I raised my gun to my
shoulder. Boom! I shot. The rabbit fell to
the ground. I said to myself, “I am tired
of rabbits.” Next day I said, “I am going
hunting for something big. I will kill a deer or
Not bad for an 8-year old. Many will be happy
to know I ate what I killed. Although I said
nothing about eating the rabbit, I must have
thought bear meat was pretty good. (Or maybe
I sat at the campfire choking it down with my
mother shouting from inside the Conestoga,
“Young man, you’re not going to bed until you
eat that entire bear!”)
I killed the bear with one shot even though my
gun was apparently a boy’s gun, and not a man’s
gun. I don’t remember if I coveted my father’s
rifle or not. I probably did – I do remember
desperately wanting his hunting knife. Maybe I
was trying to throw him a hint.
To say “I’m tired of rabbits” seems odd. In
my non-fiction life the only thing I had ever
shot was a feathered visitor to Grandma’s
birdfeeder (which cost me my BB gun
privileges), so how could I have been tired of
shooting rabbits? A few years into the future,
my beagle and I would become avid rabbit
hunters. And why did I shoot a bear, and not
a buck with gigantic antlers?
Maybe it was because around that time a hunter
stopped by the neighbor’s house to show them
his bear. I was fascinated by it. Or maybe
because of the little carved wooden Japanese
Hokkaido brown bear my aunt gave me when
I was six or seven. I still have it.
The story doesn’t show much to be proud of
(other than I was pretty good at cursive). I
focused mostly on killing, but what 8-year old
has an advanced hunting ethic? I was clearly
at “the shooting stage” and far from “the
sportsman stage.” I did, however, extend mercy
to those triplet fawns and their mother, so score
one for a budding conservationist.
When “The Everyday Hunter” isn’t hunting, he’s
thinking about hunting, talking about hunting,
dreaming about hunting, writing about hunting,
or wishing he were hunting. To read more of Steve
Sorensen’s thoughts about hunting, please visit

JHS Football Holds Annual
Future Red Raider Camp
Future "Red Raiders" pursuing the "quarterback" during the
JHS Red Raider Football Camp's agility circuit.
Article Contributed by
Jamestown Public Schools
The Jamestown High School Football Team has
been holding its annual Future Red Raider Camp
this week. The camp, which is in its 12th year, is
targeted to area youth-athletes ages six to 13.
The goal of the camp is to work on fundamentals
of the game including: blocking, tackling, catching,
throwing, carrying the football and accepting
a hand-off. They also play a variety of games to
promote competition and fun. Current JHS
football players volunteer their time to help the kids
under the coaching staff’s supervision giving back
to their community and also, so the youth players
get to know the current Red Raiders.
“It is really good for the kids to interact with the
current players,” said JHS Red Raider football player,
Andrew Pumford. “They get a chance to learn what
it will be like in the future to be a high school football
player. I went through this same camp when I was
their age and I remember watching the players and
wanting to be just like them.”
The team knows it’s important to promote the sport
to future players.
“The interest of the kids is there, so it is our job to
give them an outlet to work on football skills and
fundamentals of the game,” said JHS Red Raider
Football Coach Tom Langworthy. “We want to
teach the fundamentals of the game while allowing
players to be kids and have fun. This week is leading
up to the Jamestown Area Midget Football League
season starting so it helps get the kids ready for the
first day of their season.”

DThis past May, Ed Shults Ford Lincoln brought
Ford Motor Company’s Drive 4 UR Community
program to the Jamestown area and raised $3,440
for Royal Family Kids, Bemus Point Camp #44.
For every person who got behind the wheel of
a new Ford for a test-drive at the Bemus Point
United Methodist Church on Saturday, May
21st, Ed Shults Ford Lincoln and Ford Motor
Company donated $20 to the Royal Family
Kids, Bemus Point Camp #44. These funds will
help send local abused, abandoned, or neglected
children to camp.
Across the United States, Royal Family Kids,
Inc. has over 200 camps in 39 states and 5
international countries. The local Royal Family
Kids’ Cap, Bemus Point #44, holds a one-week
camp every summer for abused and neglected
Chautauqua County children between the ages of
7-11 with the goal to instill the hope for a better
future and to allow them to see that there are
loving people in the world.
“We were delighted to once again bring Ford’s
Drive 4 UR Community to Jamestown,” said Ed
Shults III, General Manager at Ed Shults Ford
Lincoln. “We are proud to help the Royal Family
Kids in their mission to continue providing this
opportunity for local children to experience a
week at camp, empowering these kids to keep
moving forward and showing them that each
moment does matter.“
The event featured many vehicles from Ford’s
impressive line-up. “We got to show off our
fuel efficiency vehicles, like the new Fusion and
Focus, or as well as Ford’s electric vehicle offering,
the C-MAX. Of course, the most popular car
of the day was the Ford Mustang which had a
long line to take it for a spin,” said Ed Shults III.
Dealership staff on site were able to assist with all
Ford vehicles and provide additional information
about each vehicle available for test-drive.
Since the start of Ford’s Drive 4 UR Community
program in 2007, more than $20 million in donations
have been generated for communities nationwide.

Committee, said. Nolan, a Bemus Point native, is
a finance and customer relations manager for the
Chautauqua Lake Association.
Each boat is shaped like a decorative Chinese
dragon; the bow rises into a carved reptilian head
and the hull is often painted with individual scales.
Teams are composed of a drummer to provide
motivation and rhythm; a steersperson to steer
the boat through the course; and 10 paddlers, who
must all row at the same time to propel the canoelike craft through the water.
The dragon boats will hold a practice on Saturday,
August 4, 2016 from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. at McCrea
Point Park in Jamestown. The public is invited to
come and watch the practice.
Lake Chautauqua itself plays an important role in
the festival: it is the perfect shape and size for dragon
boat racing and features a relatively smooth surface.
In the Mesolithic era, a subdivision of the Stone
Age, Lake Chautauqua came into existence. A
Members of the Chautauqua Lake Dragon Boat Race & Festival Committee pose in front of the
lake after a meeting. (L to R, front row): June Diethrick, Shirley Sanfilippo, Heather Nolan, Louise
Wolanske, Joseph Gerace. (L to R, back row): Scott Schrecengost, Brad Zimmer, Lee Harkness, Kelly
Haaksma, Bill Stevenson.
“Dragon boat races [in the US] originally assisted
breast cancer survivors in recovery by helping
them rebuild muscle and tone,” Louise Wolanske,
member of the US National Dragon Boat Team
and member of the Festival Committee said.
While dragon boating is not limited to cancer
survivors, “the goal is still to function as a charitable
organization. We find an area that needs help and
dragon boaters come,” she said.
In this case, dragon boaters identified Chautauqua
Lake as an area in need of assistance. Many residents
and community organizations — sights set on
bettering the lake— volunteered their time to help
make the festival happen.
“Judge Joe [Gerace] was instrumental in bringing
about this festival,” Wolanske said. Gerace, retired
State Supreme Court Justice and current member
of the Festival Committee, brought the dragon
boat initiative to the attention of the Chautauqua
Region Community Foundation which helped
organize the event.
“The Community Foundation helps economic
development [in Chautauqua County] and
Chautauqua Lake is one of our priority areas,” June
Diethrick, member of the Community Foundation
and Festival Committee said.
Though the popularity of dragon boating continues
to grow — especially in the Western New York and
Finger Lakes region — many people have never
seen the 31-foot-long colorful and ornate boats.
retreating glacier scraped through what is now
New York State, leaving a large basin and ridges
of sediment behind. Some 16,000 years later, the
lake now nestled in this basin requires careful
assistance to maintain a healthy balance of plants
and nutrients.
The Chautauqua Lake Association ensures
that the lake remains naturally-functioning
and aesthetically pleasing by removing
nuisance vegetation. “The lake is [one of]
the largest sources of economic development
here,” Gerace said.
Though hometown wonders tend to go underappreciated, there has been a recent push to
recognize and revitalize aspects of nature,
culture, and architecture in the Jamestown area.
“The lake has a special place in my heart. You
don’t find a bad spot on the lake. It’s a glorious
lake to wake up to,” Nolan said.
The weekend-long festival involves much more
than just dragon boats. Many local organizations
collaborated to provide live music, a Rubber
Ducky Race and more.
The Greater Chautauqua Federal Credit Union
rubber duckies are coming out of a five-year
retirement. Picture almost 2,000 rubber ducks
— yes, like the yellow plastic ones often found in
bathtubs — bobbing across a roped-off section
of Lake Chautauqua. Jet skis generate waves to
propel the ducks toward the opposite shore,
packed with cheering observers who anxiously
await the outcome of the race.
To participate, purchase a numbered duck for only
five dollars at any Greater Chautauqua Federal
Credit Union location. The winning duck’s sponsor
receives $500 cash, and the next nine places receive
smaller cash prizes. The Rubber Ducky Race is
held at 4 p.m. on Saturday. Proceeds from the
Rubber Ducky Race go to the Chautauqua Lake
Association and Lakers Disabled Sled Hockey.
One of the many unifying factors of dragon boat
racing is that people of any age and many levels of
abilities can participate in Dragon Boat racing. The
US national team has members aged 14 to over
aged 60, and Gerace hopes to have kids from Sled
Hockey placed on boat teams for the festival. “We
take this lake for granted, and we have to save it for
future generations,” Wolanske said.
At noon on Saturday, August 6, 2016, the new statue
of Lucille Ball entitled "Lucy" will be unveiled in
Lucille Ball Memorial Park. She will be welcomed
by Mayor Scott Schrecengost. Among the
dignitaries in attendance will be Senator Catherine
Young, Assemblyman Andrew Goodell, County
Executive Vince Horrigan and the creator of the
statue, Carolyn Palmer. The Junior Guilders will be
performing and the Girl Scouts will be distributing
cupcakes donated by local bakeries to celebrate
Lucille Ball's birthday, August 6th.
A variety of food, beverage and craft vendors will
be present near the water throughout the festival.
The festival takes place off the shore of Lucille
Ball Memorial Park from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Aug.
5, and from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Aug. 6. Musicians We
Speak Canadian will perform in the bandshell
on Friday night from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. For more

A Capella Performance
Comes to Mayville
Article Contributed by
Mayville/Chautauqua
Community Chamber of
Commerce
The featured performers for the August 11,
2016 performance of the Entertainment in
the Park Summer Concert Series will be ‘the
lake effect’, an all-male a cappella group hailing
from the Buffalo, NY area. The concert will
take place from 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. at Lakeside
Park, Mayville, NY, located along the shores of
Chautauqua Lake.
Members of the group are Jamie Holden,
Tenor; Matthew Sciara, Bass; Lou Shafer,
Tenor/Vocal Percussion; Jeff Trenchard, Tenor;
and Ron Veiders, Baritone. This 5-member allmale a cappella group performs covers as well
as original songs. The band was formed some
years ago so that new and intricate a cappella
music of both original and popular tunes can be
appreciated by audiences of all ages. The group
doesn’t use any musical instruments in their
performances. They are a very talented group
of performers who give another definition
to the term ‘the lake effect’. To them it’s “a
group of 5 men unified in one common goal;
the promotion and performance of all-male a
cappella music”. They graced our concert stage
two years ago with their unique, musical talents,
and we are pleased to welcome them back this
year for another great performance.
Rainbow the Clown ( Jerry Stimson) will also
be on hand to entertain the children with face
painting and balloon sculptures. Rainbow is a
favorite with the children and they’re sure to
have a great time as well. The Entertainment in
the Park musical performances are provided at
no cost to the public through the sponsorship
and support of the Village of Mayville and
Town of Chautauqua. In case of rain, the
performance will take place at the Carlson
Community Center also located at Lakeside
Park, Mayville. Remember to bring your own
seating for the outdoor performance. A 50/50
drawing will be held at each of the concerts this
summer, the winner announced just before the
end of the performance. The Maple Springs
Fire Department will be selling delicious BBQ
dinners at each of our concerts this summer,
benefiting their Fire Department. The Mayville
Fire Department also offers popcorn and
water at each of the performances this summer
on a donation basis, for the benefit of their

Tanglewood Group
Celebrates in Warren
Article Contributed by
Tanglewood Group
Cindy Hile from Warren didn’t realize
she was going to be a winner when she
entered the Tanglewood Group tent as
part of the July 4th 3 day celebration. The
Tanglewood Group wanted to participate
in the event to inform the community of
the recent renovations that have been made
to Tanglewood at Frewsburg’s Rest Home
which is a facility that offers a unique class
and charm that may be the perfect setting
for those in the Warren area.
Hannah Grable, Case Manager at the
Frewsburg Rest Home, continues to offer
quality services to seniors. “We were very
excited to do the event down in Warren,
because our bed and breakfast-like facility
and the services we offer could make a huge
difference for the community. Many of our
residents are from the Warren area and
our payment options make it affordable
for individuals who may feel like the
living arrangement is out of their financial
reach. We were thrilled to be given the
opportunity to have a table at the Fourth
of July celebration, and meet so many great
people who were able to give us insight
into their ideal senior living situation.”
Cindy was able to receive her “Giveaway”
which included photo collages from the
artist Gene Ploss of Sherman, NY as well
as some additional prizes at Tanglewood
at Frewsburg’s facility. This giveaway was
just one more way to stay involved and
help others be informed of the resources
and services available to adults and seniors
in need. Cindy toured the facility as she
had previously visited the Rest Home and
was surprised by all the changes. “When I
saw the picture of the rest home I wanted
to see if it was the same Frewsburg Rest
Home, I can see now it’s totally different,
it’s really nice and they have done a lot
to change it”. Completely renovated and
modernized rooms with full baths add
a touch of elegance to the old country
home; a comfortable housing option at an
affordable price. The Tanglewood Group
is proud to offer our tradition of quality
care and compassion at “The Rest Home”
of Frewsburg.
The Tanglewood Group is well-known for
offering quality services to seniors in the
greater Jamestown area for over 30 years.

Chautauqua County Humane Society Pets of the Week
Shane
This week we are featuring Shane and Wolfie. Shane is a 10 year old male short hair black and white and Wolfie is an 8 1/2 year old
male gray tabby. They came to the shelter because their owner was no longer able to care for them. They are currently living in a
foster home because they like things on the calm side. They are doing well and really need to stay together. They are on prescription food and will need to stay on that for the rest of their lives. Their perfect home would be quiet and with patient people that
will give them time to adjust to their new home. If you have a place in your heart and home for these two wonderful kitties please
contact the Adoption Center and arrange a visit with them. They deserve a 2nd chance and you can give it to them! For more

JG: Are those houses more fun to play to?
Lewis: They sure are. That’s why I like Jamestown
so much. I think I’ll spend some time just
wandering about and seeing the town.
JG: But you’re the King of Rant. You love to tell
people, “Quit your whining!” Is it safe to say hello
if somebody sees you?
Lewis: (Laughing). You bet! Who has the
energy to be like that all the time? Not me. I’m a

Brian Regan
JG: Hi Brian. We hope you like coming to
Jamestown.
Brian: I’ve never been there before, but I like
doing comedy anywhere. It’s a craft I’ve enjoyed
for a long time.
JG: Do you think there’s a certain kind of comedy
that works best at an event like Lucy Fest or in a
city like Jamestown?
Brian: As long as it’s truthful and organic – it has
to come from the heart – it’s all fair game. Like the
time when I got sick and went to the Emergency
Room. All I did the next night on stage was tell
the story. It was the easiest comedy I ever did.
JG: Who were the comedians that influenced you
the most in your early days?
Brian: I loved Lucy’s brand of physical comedy,
it never ages, but comics do. You can’t keep doing
that as you get older. George Carlin was very
different, but I was a big fan ever since I read his
book as a kid, “Napalm and Silly Putty”. It had
a lot of his stand-up material in it. Then there
was Red Skelton…I still remember some of his
routines. He could be funny even when he didn’t
say anything.
JG: You have a word-play routine on teaching
kids English. It’s about, why are a bunch of ox
called oxen but a bunch of boxes aren’t boxen?
That sounds a little like a Carlin rant on the stupid
way we all use words.
Brian: He was a big influence. But he worked
blue and I usually don’t. Nothing wrong with it,
but you just have to do what feels natural. And
clean feels most natural for me.
JG: Do you think you will ever change your style?
Brian: Well, George switched from the Hippy
Dippy Weatherman to something politically and
socially darker but still very funny after he got
kicked out of Vegas and went through a few other
weird things. That hasn’t happened to me yet, so
I guess not…yet.
JG: What’s your plan for Jamestown?
Brian: Well, people used to come to see my shows
just because I did “comedy” like everybody else.
Now I hope they are coming to see me because
they’ve gotten to know Brian Regan.
JG: Welcome to Jamestown.

Western World and he can’t come to the phone.

Kelly: In addition to honoring our fathers and
helping people get to know them as we did, we
want to talk about Censorship in Comedy and
something we call “The Dangers of the American
Evolution.” Our fathers rebelled against what
we call today “political correctness” and got in
trouble for it. That has to stop.
Comedy Legacies: Bruce, Carlin, Pryor
This only-in-Jamestown event, presents Kitty
Bruce, Kelly Carlin and Rain Pryor, together on
stage discussing the people the world knew as
comedy legends, but they knew as fathers.
JG: Kelly, you were here last year for Lucy Fest
and you’re back this year with your friends, Kitty
and Rain. Welcome back.
Kelly (Carlin): I’m always excited to come back
to Jamestown. It’s beginning to feel like a second
home to me.
JG: You’ve stayed in touch.
Kelly: I thought Jamestown would be the perfect
place for my Father’s archives. It’s about 10 steamer
trunks of his notes, routines, artifacts and awards.
They are still at my house, but the Lucy Desi
organization is preparing a special place for them
in Jamestown. They will be coming there soon.
Kitty: August 3 is the 50th anniversary of my
father’s death and we’ll be on stage in Jamestown
just two days later, on August 5. I am so excited to
be there. The idea of a National Comedy Center
is an amazing thing. Thank God for Lucy’s idea.
JG: What will your panel discussion be about for
Lucy Fest?
Kitty: Our country is turning beige today. The
bright colors are disappearing. Comics are supposed
to be our social doctors, to provide a greater purpose.
They can help people hear what they are thinking
but can’t say. Our world tends to exclude people but
comedy includes people. When you laugh with a
comedian you are never alone.
JG: Plan on never being alone in Jamestown.
Enjoy your visit.

Just listen to your own voice.
A special Friend of Fest event, the Celoron
Statue Unveiling, will take place at high noon
on Saturday, August 8 in Celoron’s Lucille Ball
Memorial Park. A new statue created by New
York sculptor, Carolyn Palmer, will be unveiled
as a companion piece to the previous bronze
(also remaining at Celoron Park) along with the
musical accompaniment of Jamestown’s Junior
Guilders and the sharing of Lucille Ball’s 105th
Birthday cupcakes all around. This event will
also be part of the first annual Dragon Boat race
on Chautauqua Lake, launching from Celoron’s
lakeside docks.
Kitty (Bruce): I want to honor my father in a
way that will change people’s lives. I didn’t want a
generation to go by without knowing Lenny Bruce.
To learn more about all of the Lucille Ball
Comedy Festival events, locations and tickets, go
to lucycomedyfest.com.
JG: What do you want to happen here with your
father’s whole lifetime of material?
Kelly: I want people to be able to read them and
study them; comedians, scholars and people who
just love comedy.
JG: What is it like creating your own career
in such a big shadow? Do you think what you
accomplish might change how people feel about
your father?

Gerry Rodeo
Article Contributed by
Gerry Rodeo
The Gerry Volunteer Fire Department’s
72d annual professional rodeo is set for
four nightly performances, August 3-6,
with more than 200 cowboys and cowgirls
from across the nation competing for
$45,000 in prize money in the seven
traditional rodeo events – saddle and
bareback bronc riding, steer wrestling,
team roping, tie-down roping, bull riding,
and the cowgirls’ barrel racing.
In addition to the rodeo competition, fans
will be entertained with the comedy of rodeo
clown Matt Tarr and the daring feats of
World Champion trick rider Haley Ganzel.
Saturday afternoon at 4:00 kids ages 3-8 will
be invited to participate in a free kids’ rodeo
supervised by pro cowboys and cowgirls.
The event also features the famous beef
barbeque cooked outdoors over wood fires
and served with kettle browned potatoes,
salad, cottage cheese, corn, ice cream, and
drinks in their air-conditioned dining hall
each day, beginning at 5:00, and a lighted
midway with more than 20 vendors
offering everything from Western wear to
fried dough and cotton candy.
This rodeo is now the longest consecutively
running professional rodeo east of the
Mississippi. Additional information
is available at the rodeo website www.

SHERMAN DAYS
Sherman Day Not
Just for Shermanites
Article Contributed by
Emily Wynne
and more. The Stanley Hose Chicken BBQ
starts at noon, and limited servings are available,
so be sure to get in line.
This year’s theme of Sherman Day, “Unity is
the root of a great community,” encompasses
what Sherman, like many small towns, values
most. Held annually since 1983, Sherman Day
is an opportunity for everyone to experience
the unity and sense of community that shines
in Sherman every day. A quick walk down Main
Street shows local shop owners sitting outside
their businesses, chatting with passersby and
soaking up the sun.
Sherman Day encourages interactivity from
residents and visitors alike. Don’t miss this
chance to march beside floats, music, animals
and the local fire department. “If you want to be
in our parade, all are welcome! Registration is
free and will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m.
on the corner of Park and Kendrick,” Swabik
said.
“Sherman, for generations, has been united as a
community by calling ourselves Shermanites,”
Michelle Swabik, one of the Sherman Day
Parade Coordinators, said. Swabik, director
of Sherman’s Rural Center, is excited for the
“opportunity to get involved with organizing
our community celebration.”
“There were a few of us in the Stanley Hose
Auxiliary who planned [Sherman Day] the
first few years, and gradually, it became a huge
event that people enjoy and look forward to
each year,” Carol Hay, who has been involved
with both the Stanley Hose Auxiliary and the
Sherman Historical Society, said.
The festivities start with a community-wide
bonfire at 8:30 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 5. The
bonfire will be held at Fireman’s Field on
Klondyke Road. Bring a beverage and a chair,
and prepare to be entertained by live music and
good old-fashioned campfire conversation.
Friday’s music is only a prelude to the other five
bands performing all afternoon and evening on
Saturday at Cooler Café and Murdock’s.
Kickstart your Saturday with exercise for the
whole family. Registration for the Sherman
softball team’s annual 5k fun run/walk starts at
7:15 a.m. behind Murdock’s, and the race takes
place at 8:30 a.m.
“The Sherman day weekend is full of fun for
all ages,” Swabik said. There will be a variety of
yard games on the football field for everyone
to enjoy. Other activities include bounce
houses, an obstacle course, dunk tank and a
musical petting zoo. After partaking in these
sweat-inducing activities, any kids who remain
energetic can cool off with the giant slip ’n’ slide.
Engine-lovers can peruse the Car/Bike/ATV
Show and watch the Lawn Tractor Poker Run.
More than 25 local vendors offer crafts, food
“The chicken barbecue is delicious,” Hay
promises.
“We are excited this year to be bringing back
the Old West Show during our annual parade.
In years past, community members would unite
and give the crowd an exciting and theatrical old
West show on horseback.
“Come and see the return of this show during
our parade, which starts at 10 a.m. on Main
Street,” Hay encouraged.
As part of the Sherman Day celebrations, the
French Creek Yorkers — a historical association
begun in 1946 when a group of schoolgirls
collected local artifacts — is hosting a reunion
event. Various activities at the Yorker Museum
— a restored mini village depicting Sherman
life in the mid-19th century — will take place
from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
“This year the Sherman Historical Society is our
[parade’s] grand marshal, and is celebrating 70
years of service to our community. Stop by the
Yorker Museum for … wagon rides and take a
tour of our historical museum,” Swabik said.
The day winds down with a family-friendly
outdoor movie, shown just after dusk. “My
favorite part of the day would have to be when
[everyone] gathers on the football field for
a movie under the stars on Saturday night,”
Swabik said.
Be sure to bring chairs or blankets, and get ready
to snack on concessions. “This year the Rural
Center will be showing Zootopia,” Swabik said.
“The Sherman Day Committee wants to bring
family fun, not just to Shermanites, but to
surrounding communities,” Swabik said.
“Anyone looking for inexpensive entertainment
and a chance to enjoy the small town
atmosphere needs to stop by on August 6,” Hay
agreed. For more information, see the Sherman
Day flyer, linked at sherman.wnyric.org, or visit
the Sherman Day Facebook page.

FINDING YOUR FAMILY with Janet Wahlberg
Looking Local
Contributing Writer
Janet Wahlberg
Your local library will have histories of the
town and surrounding area. They may or may
not have family history and other records. I
always recommend that you read about the
area that your family lived in as it helps you
to develop a better understanding of what
their life may have been like. Also, many
of the local libraries have been offering
introductory class in genealogical research;
you might wish to try one of these if you are
a newbie to the research family.
Prendergast Library has a vast collection of
micro-film that can be accessed. The Darwin
Baker Library in Fredonia has a genealogy
room that is open every day through
August for research. The Patterson Library
in Westfield had a collection of Westfield
newspapers spanning the years from 1826
to 1927. It is open daily at 9 a.m. Fenton
History Center has the Hall House Research
Library that is open Monday through
Saturday, packed with resources and staffed
with helpful and knowledgeable volunteers.
The McClurg Museum is open year round
Tuesday through Saturday.

First let’s review the general rules for doing
research at local places. Call ahead to let
them know that you are coming and double
check the hours that they are open. Arrive
prepared to do research, i.e. have a list of
goals that you wish to reach. Be aware that
you may not be able to actually look through
the books yourself as many are in quite fragile
condition. Ask what their fees are. If they do
not have a fee, leave a donation.

the “big” sites to research, such as Ancestry,

very helpful. Many records such as marriages
and deaths are stored at the town level.
Historians are a great resource. Each town in
Chautauqua County has its own historian.
Just go to http://chautauqua.ny.us/172/
Historians to find yours. Chautauqua County
Historian, Michelle Henry, is located at the
County Court House in Mayville and can
help to steer you in the right direction.
Local churches may have just the record that
you have been looking for. Call the church
office to inquire about their records. If the
church that your ancestors worshipped at
has closed or merged, call the closest one of
the same denomination to see if they have
the records of the closed church. If not,
search out the synod, diocese, etc of that
denomination. The search will be well worth
the time if you find the records that you are
looking for.
Believe it or not Face book can be of help
locally. Chautauqua County, NY Genealogy
is a Facebook page developed by two local
young genealogists. If you have a problem
or question, it is a great place to look for
help. I recently was struggling to find some
church records. Within minutes of posting
my question, I had an answer. I then received
several more suggestions, one from a former
pastor of the church who now resided in
North Carolina.
My advice is to not overlook the many local
resources that may allow you to find that
very elusive bit of information that puts it all
together for you. Til next month!

columns or to delve deeper into her writings and
insights for searching out and recording your own
family’s genealogy, please go to jamestowngazette.

Looking Up in August - Prepare for
a shower!
It’s a meteor shower. On the nights of
August 11 and 12 the people of Earth
will once again be treated to one of
the year’s most spectacular meteor
showers, the Perseids Meteor Shower.
The Perseids is one of the finest
meteor showers to observe. Typically,
it produces up to 60 “shooting stars”
per hour at its peak. Actually, they are
meteors which may be as small as a sand
grain and up to a baseball size or, rarely,
even bigger. Because of their enormous
speed, they pack so much power on
hitting Earth’s upper atmosphere that
even the small ones blaze brightly and
trail a long, fiery streak across the sky.
The Perseids Meteor Shower is the
product of the slow disintegration
of comet Swift-Tuttle, discovered in
1862. As comets approach the sun on
their inward journey through the solar
system, they leave behind along their
path through deep space, grains and
fragments and chunks of their mass.
Eventually, Earth plows through those
debris trails and turns the falling pieces
of comet Swift-Tuttle into blazing
meteor showers.
The Perseids are famous for producing
a large number of bright meteors. The
annual shower can appear anywhere
from July 17 to August 24. This year’s
peak is expected on the night of August
11 and the early morning hours of
August 12. The moon will set shortly
after midnight, leaving fairly dark skies
for what should provide an excellent
early morning show. For best viewing,
find a dark location after midnight.
Meteors will appear to radiate out of
the constellation Perseus, but they can
appear almost anywhere in the sky.
Two Bright Lights
Mark your calendar for the night of
August 27 to see the conjunction of
Venus and Jupiter. They will appear to
pass very close to each other (called,
in conjunction) in the night sky. They
will actually be hundreds of millions
of miles apart, but their orbits around
the sun will briefly align them from our
point of view.
This spectacular conjunction of Venus
and Jupiter will be clearly visible in the
evening sky. The two bright planets
will appear to be only 0.06 degrees
apart. By comparison, a full moon as
seen you’re your back yard is about 0.5
degrees across, or about eight times the
separation you will see between Venus
and Jupiter on the night of August 27.
Look for this impressive pairing in the
western sky just after sunset.

Since the Reg Lenna Center for The Arts
is a long-time staple of the Jamestown art
and culture scene, the staff of the Reg, as
it is affectionately called, tries to preserve
the original vibe of the place. “The things
we do in the theater now are very similar
to what was done in the theater originally:
a mix of live performances and movies,”
Len Barry, Director of Marketing and
Communications, said.

The Reg “was built in 1923. She used to
be known as the Palace Theater, and did
vaudeville, but quickly switched over to movies,”
Kathleen Eads, Executive Director, said about the
theater’s history. Eads, who hails from Los Angeles
and holds an art administration degree, said, “the
first two winters [in Jamestown] were bad!”
In the 1980s, “when the theater was falling
apart, Harry Chapin did a solo concert to
benefit the theater. That kick-started the appeal
the public to fix the theater,” Barry said. The
Week of 8/1/16 to

Palace had deteriorated so badly that audiences
had to use umbrellas inside during Chapin’s
show, and Chapin himself got rained on while
he was singing.

Film fans, children, and those interested in
traditional stand-up comedy will certainly find at
least one event to their liking. “The beauty of the
Reg is that it’s the community’s theater. We try
to make it as inclusionary and accessible to the
community as possible, and I try to reflect that in
the programming, too, by featuring a wide array
of disciplines and cultures,” Eads said.
“We branched out from theater once it was
going well,” Barry said. One main avenue is
their low-power radio station, WRFA. Tune
in to 107.9 FM to listen to the communityprogrammed broadcast.
The Reg showcases all kinds of art. One of the
oldest billboards in the US was discovered in an
exterior wall on Pine Street. “The brick façade
started to fall, and [the construction crew] saw
colors and writing underneath. After chipping
the brick away, they found the billboard
plastered to wood,” Ead said. The 20 foot by 10
foot 1878 Buffalo Bill Cody poster is currently
on display in the lobby of the Reg.
“We also have a year-round art gallery.
We [currently] have a show … called My
Jamestown,” Ead said. The 3rd on 3rd Gallery
hosts approximately seven art shows per
year. “The exhibit, hashtagged myjtownny,
is a compilation of community photographs
originally posted on Instagram.
As “the largest, longest-established public theater
downtown,” Barry emphasized involvement
with Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. “We housed
the world premiere of Forever Darling, a Lucy
movie,” Barry said.
“The legend is that Lucy,
when she was 19, fell off the
stage into the pit and broke
her collarbone,” Eads added.
Keeping with Jamestown
tradition of celebrating this
female comedian, the Reg
presents a number of comedyoriented shows during Lucy
Fest weekend. “Events we’re
hosting include Louis Black,
Trevor Noah of The Daily
Show, Story Pirates for kids,
and two panel discussion programs.
“One is with George Carlin’s daughter, Kelly;
Richard Pryor’s daughter, Rain; and Lenny
Bruce’s daughter, Kitty, all of them famous
comedians in their own right. The other panel
discussion is with the Farrelly brothers, who
directed Dumb and Dumber and There’s
Something About Mary. They’re even bringing
in the pet-grooming van with the floppy ears
from Dumb and Dumber,” Barry said.
As for the future, “we’re getting ready to do a
massive renovation,” Eads said. She plans to
expand the Reg Lenna lobby and bring back
the early 19th century aesthetic, which includes
vintage light fixtures and a barrel ceiling.
“Growth is happening and the awareness
within the community is happening,” Eads said,
noting that ticket sales go up each year. “We
hope to grow our audience even more,” Barry
concluded. Visit reglenna.com for event details
and a more detailed history, call 716-484-7070
or stop by in person; just head toward the
classic marquee on East Third Street.

daughters. Will she be able to repair the
damage she has caused and give her daughters
the grandmother’s love they deserve?
Claudia C. Bowker will sign copies of her
book “It Took a Bullet” from 3 to 5 p.m.
Thursday, Aug. 4, at Prendergast Library,
509 Cherry St., Jamestown.
When she left public education,
she opened and operated a
family home child care in
Fredonia. As an early childhood
professional, she co-chaired
several Chautauqua County
child care conferences. She also
developed and taught numerous
professional
development
workshops at the local, regional,
state and national level.
Copies of the book will be available for
purchase at a cost of $16.99, and a portion of
the proceeds will be donated to the library.
A digital download of the book is also
available from Tate Publishing for $13.99.
The author drew on her experiences as a
teacher, administrator and early childhood
professional to write “It Took a Bullet,” which
tells the story of Doris Butler. During her six
years as principal of the George B. Williams
Elementary School, she transformed it
into one the highest performing schools
in Nevada. Now she has been shot by a
distraught parent and is fighting for her life
in an Intensive Care Unit.
Her physical struggle to survive also provides
an opportunity to heal relationships within
her fractured family. As her estranged daughter
Jennifer learns how much love and respect
the community has for Doris, she wonders
whether she can recover the love from which
she has isolated herself and her two young
substitute teaching in several other
Northern Chautauqua County
districts. She also spent several
years as a mid-level administrator
at the Erie 2-ChautauquaCattaraugus BOCES.

A native of Forestville, Mrs. Bowker taught
math and computer science in the Forestville,
Westfield and Ripley public schools and did
After retiring, she and her husband
Bruce moved to a small desert
farming community near Las Vegas.
They travel extensively in their travel
trailer with their Chocolate Lab. She
also spends time writing, reading,
knitting, and doing needlework.
She has held many book signings
to benefit local libraries throughout
Nevada, Utah and Idaho.
