All day

 Hello sports fans!  Just a note that we have started our open soccer for the summer, a little earlier than normal, but its okay!  On Monday nights, at John Kennedy there will be open soccer for anyone and everyone.  It is co-ed, all ages welcome.  The participants usually range somewhere between 16 and 60.  Again, its on Monday nights, at John Kennedy at any open field space there, between 6:30 and 7:00.  Playing time runs until it gets too dark to play or people get too tired!  Again, anyone is welcome.  If you have any questions, please feel free to e-mail me at ammd1727@yahoo.com or call 585.409.5228.  We play every Monday rain or shine.  Its a good chance for people to meet new sports fans, get a little exercise and just have a chance to kick a ball around without having to commit to a league or a team.  Depending on the number of players, we will break people up into teams so its always new each week!

Noblehurst Farms Inc, of Linwood, will be
hosting a summer fundraiser to benefit the
Pluta Cancer Center on Sunday afternoon,
August 9th. The picnic will feature: Chicken Barbeque
(York Fire Department), ice cream, live music from Tim Bucci and his band, tours of the farm and rotary milking facility, and a farm equipment exhibition.
 
The Pluta Cancer Center in Henrietta has served many patients and families in
Rochester’s outlying communities, including our own. Gary McIntyre,
of Noblehurst Farms, has been the inspiration for this picnic. Following his own
cancer treatment, Gary searched for a meaningful way to thank Pluta while
informing our community that they can “Choose Pluta” for cancer care. 
A picnic on the farm seemed a perfect solution. As a not-for-profit cancer center
Pluta will use funds raised to:
  • provide complete, personalized care at no extra cost to patients   
  • supply gas, grocery, and pharmacy gift cards for those facing economic hardship
  • provide lunch during chemotherapy
  • support complementary services: on-staff social worker, registered dietician, and oncology massage therapist 
 
Within our small, close-knit communities we have seen far too many friends, family, and neighbors affected by cancer. This fundraiser is one small way to recognize the impact of this disease. The picnic’s planning team, comprised of Noblehurst Farms employees, York Fire Department volunteers, neighbors, church groups, and family, has been overwhelmed by the interest and generosity from the community for the event in the form of donations. Local businesses, including an overwhelming number of farms and agricultural vendors, are contributing their time, dollars, food, and equipment.
 
The picnic begins at 1 pm on Sunday August 9th at the farm’s main dairy facility on Craig Road in Pavilion. The chicken barbeque will run from until 3 pm, and farm tours from 2 – 5 pm. Tickets are on sale now and we invite you to join us by bringing friends, family, and neighbors. Call Linwood Turf Equipment at 585-584-3122 or visit www.plutacancercenter.org for ticket information. Tickets are pre-sale only, and limited in number.

On Friday, July 11, the Genesee Country Farmer’s Market, in cooperation with
Oliver’s Candies, will give away a $50 gift card to the popular West Main
Street candy store.

It's part of a series of cross-promotional events that couple the Farmer’s Market with local, independent retailers. No purchase is necessary to win the gift card. Anyone may register to win at the Genesee Country Farmer’s Market, Park Road (Batavia Downs parking lot), Batavia. The winner need not be present to claim their prize.

According to Market Manager Patty Hawley, “Fruit and chocolate is a
popular pair. Beyond the expected ‘chocolate-covered strawberries,' there
are endless combinations that highlight both the sweet-tart nature of fruit
and the creaminess of milk or dark chocolate.

"Chocolate can be paired with raspberries, cherries and wines and cordials to enhance the flavors of both. Partnering with Oliver’s Candies is a perfect fit since fresh fruits are
in abundance in the summertime and representatives from the Niagara Wine
Trail will be available each week at the market to offer suggestions on
pairing wine with chocolate.”

There are several other events planned at the market this year. Children from the Batavia Player’s Youth Theatre group will be performing highlights from their upcoming show on Friday, Aug. 7. Instructors at Blue Pearl Yoga Studio will present a yoga
demonstration on Friday, July 24.  And another gift card raffle with Roxy’s Music Store is also planned this summer as well.

The Genesee Country Farmer’s Market is open on Tuesdays and Fridays from
8 a.m. – 5 p.m. through October. For more information call Patty Hawley at (585) 343-3329.
