On Thursday, December 8, 2011, Cattaraugus Community Action will host its 5th Annual Santa’s Carnival for the children of Cattaraugus County. This year’s Carnival is sure to be as much as fun as previous years – if not more! Santa, Mrs. Claus, Frosty the Snowman, and the Grinch will be on hand for free photos.
Santa’s Carnival is a holiday event for community children held at Cattaraugus Community Action, 25 Jefferson Street, Salamanca, New York. Each of CCA’s departments creates games, crafts, and contests for our young visitors. Events this year will include face painting, balloon animals, caricature drawings, and a gingerbread house raffle for holiday fun. Every child leaves with prizes, decorations, toys, and homemade Christmas cookies and hot cocoa. This event is free and open to all community children.
Please join us at the 5th Annual Santa’s Carnival!

Annual Candle Lighting Ceremony

Location: Lincoln Park

Phone: 372-0307

This ceremony, to remember all children who have died, is held every year on the second Sunday in December, at 7 PM. As candles burn down in one time zone, they are lit in the next, creating a 24-hour wave of light that encircles the globe.
This local ceremony is being organized in memory of Noah Boser, who died at the age of 7 months and for all other children who have died. Parents, grandparents, families and friends who have lost a child are invited to bring a photograph (sealed in plastic) to be displayed at a memorial Christmas tree in the park. The candlelight vigil will have music, poems, hot chocolate and cookies to help warm our spirits as we remember all the children we’ll forever miss.

HomeCare & Hospice plans Tree of Life ceremonies

Sunday, December 4 2011
2 PM
Location: Total Senior Care
519 N. Union St.
Olean, NY
Phone: (800) 719-7129
While the deadline to order a commemoraive ornament in time to have it engraved before the ceremonies has passed, the ornament can still be purchased and engraved once the ceremony has taken place. This year’s ornament is a pewter memory tree.

At the ceremonies, family members and friends hang ornaments on a holiday tree in remembrance of their loved one. A member of a hospice patient’s family shares their story and assists in lighting a remembrance wreath.

Each year, the HomeCare & Hospice Foundation offers an ornament as an option for remembrance, but the ceremony is not limited to families who have received hospice services.

The ornament is available for a suggested donation of $15, with engraving, shipping and handling included. Additional options include giving an ornament as a gift, or purchasing a memory tag bearing a name for $5.

Participants are encouraged to take their ornament home after the ceremony. Otherwise, the ornaments will remain on the tree and be mailed out in mid-January.

Order forms can be obtained by contacting Jacqueline Czwojdak at (800) 719-7129 or Wendy Leffler at (877) 277-2615 or they may be downloaded at www.homcare-hospice.org.

The Scariest Hayride you'll ever ride. Hayride, Haunted Barn, Haunted Maze, crafts, food and lots of excitement.
Nightmare Hayride on Sommerville St. is known to be the scariest haunted attraction in Western New York. Nightmare Hayride is a twenty five minute tractor drawn hayride that will lead you down a creepy haunted path with live scary creatures. We guarantee that you will end up sitting in the persons lap next to you. Once you have successfully finished the ride you will exit off into a haunted maze that will twist and turn over one acre of land. Be prepared because once again we like to scare and now you will be walking through long dark hallways with live scary creatures that will give you nightmares. After you have made your way through the maze you will then end up in our haunted barn which features our vortex tunnel. If you have successfully made it through all of these extraordinary haunts it should end up taking a total of forty minutes.
Nightmare Hayride also offers a cook shack which will serve some spooktacular food! We also have a pavilion that you can sit and tell all your haunting stories. Come if you dare.
