Another great Jazz Festival in the books

17 Aug

The Webster Jazz Festival seems to get better every year.

This two-day festival has been held for almost 20 years now, and somehow the organizers (our very own Webster Business and Improvement District) keep finding ways to improve it. This year’s big upgrade was having two of Friday night’s “Jazz in the Pubs” bands — Sarah De Vallière and Deepak Thettu and Friends — actually play outdoors, on West Main St.

What a brilliant idea that was. Not only was it easier for the bands to set up and gave them more space to perform, but it allowed for much larger crowds to spread out and enjoy the music, taking advantage of the perfect August weather. It also helped increase the visibility of the vendors who had set up tents along the sidewalks.

Four other bands performed at four other indoor venues throughout Friday evening, allowing patrons to more or less “pub-hop,” and I was happy to see that Annette’s, Ploty’s, the Cobblestone and Jojo were all pretty busy.

I was also very happy to see a strong presence from The Coach. Fritz had set up a beer tent on the patio, which did brisk business all Friday and Saturday night. Community members could also support the bar by purchasing t-shirts and other items which read “Stand By Your Bar.”

I’ve posted a few photos from Friday night above, but also have many others in this Facebook gallery. I’ve also included a nice selection of photos taken by my friend Mary White, who was there Friday night with her much-better-than-mine camera.

“Jazz in the Streets” on Saturday was awesome as usual. The music was terrific, the food vendors were busy, and the twinkly lights made Main Street extra charming as night fell. My favorite thing to do on this night is to just walk around the perimeter of the crowd, because it’s guaranteed I’ll see someone I know. Friday night was no exception; I was able to reconnect with a dozen friends, some of whom I haven’t seen in several years.

Oh, and of course I took a lot of photos, too. Click here for my full gallery from Saturday night.

Business news in (and near) the village

16 Aug

Good things are happening in the village.

For starters, perhaps you noticed that there’s paper up in the windows of the former Garage Sale Store at 8 West Main, AND a “for rent” sign. This is an excellent turn of events, because that empty storefront has been an eyesore for a few years. And what a waste of good retail space. I look forward to seeing what will be moving in.

Plus, signs also went up this week in the windows of the former Roc Style restaurant at 5 West Main, announcing the imminent arrival of the Main Dive, which promises “good music, cheap drinks and a full menu.” I’ll be chatting with them in the next week or two, so stay tuned for more details.

The west half of the old Jeff’s Computer Service at 1 East Main (at the corner of South Ave.) has had black plastic up in its windows for a while now. I don’t have a line on what’s happening there, but will let you know as soon as I do.

Finally, just down the street — not in the village, but pretty close — a new “play café” will be opening soon in Towne Center Plaza (Target plaza), called Play-a-Latte. On its Facebook page, the owners describe the café as a “place offering imaginative play, birthday parties for children, and a place for parents to relax, connect, and enjoy a quality cup of coffee.” They’re planning a grand opening celebration in September, so stay tuned for more about them.

August History Bit: The Forest Lawn train accident

15 Aug

On a quiet summer morning 136 years ago this week, the peaceful community of Forest Lawn was jarred by a horrifying crash. A deadly train accident shattered the town’s calm, leaving twisted tracks, splintered cars, and a tragic story that would be remembered for generations.

August 10, 1889 was a normal day for the Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg Railroad “stub train,” which ran from Windsor Beach to Forest Lawn every morning. It had pulled into the station at 7:50 a.m., as expected, and passengers were boarding. 

Unfortunately, it was not a normal morning for the “Thousand Island” express train, which was running almost two hours late. It normally barreled through the station at high speed at 6 a.m. But on this morning, as it thundered around the curve, the stub train blocked its path, and the engineer could do little to avoid the collision. 

The resulting crash telescoped the stub train’s coach cars, two of which were lifted off the tracks and shoved against the station house. The express train’s engine ran off into the sand and blew up. Three people lost their lives, including a young girl, and six were severely injured. 

Newspaper accounts from the time didn’t explicitly assign blame, but investigators questioned why no one anticipated that the late-arriving express train would reach Forest Lawn at about the same time as the stub train from Windsor Beach. A man should have been sent down the track to flag the train, the reports argued. Sometimes in such situations, orders are telegraphed ahead to stop at a siding, but the conductor insisted he never received any such order.

A Democrat and Chronicle article published the day following the crash noted that,

The place itself is a most favorable one for accidents. Forest Lawn is … situated on a sharp promontory. The Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg track curves sharply on each side of the station so that standing on the platform, scarcely twenty rods of track (330 feet) are visible to the west and the stretch of track between the station and the curve to the east is considerably less than that. … A flag was displayed at the rear of the stub train but to expect protection from that means would be worse than foolishness for it would give the engineer of the approaching train no time whatever in which to avert the disaster.

The Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg Railroad (better known in our area as the Hojack) has been out of business for many years, and the train station is long gone. But while trains no longer run through the Forest Lawn neighborhood, the memory of that tragic day will endure for many years.

Webster Garlic Fest returns in just a few weeks

14 Aug

The Webster Garlic Fest is returning to the Webster Recreation Center on Saturday and Sunday Sept. 6 and 7.

This is a great family festival for anyone who loves all things garlic, and it keeps getting bigger and better every year. Somehow, organizers have managed to squeeze 170 vendors into this year’s festival, including crafters, food vendors, distilleries, wineries, food trucks, and of course lots and lots of garlic growers. There are so many vendors that they’ll fill the gymnasium and spill out onto the Rec Center grounds. Many of them provide tastings, samples and demonstrations. (Click here for a complete list of vendors.)

But even if you’re not a big fan of garlic, there are a lot of non-garlic vendors, and plenty else to see and do. Like, you can cozy up to some alpacas and baby goats (who like to wear pajamas), and even a huge 70-year old tortoise — and they all love to take selfies. There’ll be demos, and Mr. Wally the Balloon Man will be there.

Proceeds from the Webster Garlic Fest will benefit

  • Wreaths Across America: Honoring and remembering veterans resting in local cemeteries on National Wreaths Across America Day, December 13, 2025.
  • Blue Star Mothers ROC NY8 (military families): Building Care Packages for locally deployed service members and helping military families in our area.
  • Gold Star Mothers Rochester (mothers who have lost a child, spouse, sibling, or parent in active duty): Helping community veterans-in-need with meals, resources, and year-round support.

The Webster Garlic Fest will be held Saturday Sept. 6 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday Sept. 7 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Webster Recreation Center, 1350 Chiyoda Dr. There’s plenty of parking in the Recreation Center lot, and even more across the street in the former Xerox parking lot, where free shuttles will be transporting guests back and forth.

Single-day tickets are only $5, and children Under 12 are free. Click here to buy your tickets, or you can get them at the door.

Riding some trails, exploring some Civil War history

13 Aug

Even if you load up my blog page regularly, you might not have noticed the tagline I put at the top. It reads: “A full serving of Webster happenings with an occasional appetizer on the side.”

Today is one of those appetizers.

My husband Jack and I recently decided to get out of town for a night, just to do something different and fun. So we loaded up our bikes and drove down to Penn Yan, a village which neither of us knew much about. We thought it’d be fun to explore it, have dinner, and check out some brew pubs.

But our main goal that day was to ride the seven-mile long Keuka Outlet Trail (KOT), which follows the winding waterway where Keuka Lake flows eastward into Seneca Lake. Thanks to the efforts of the Friends of the Outlet, the trail is nicely maintained and offers an impressive mix of history and natural beauty.

The Fall Brook Railroad once traveled along this route, back and forth between Penn Yan and Dresden. Some of the old railroad ties and concrete signal markers still mark the way. At one time, there were 30 to 40 mills operating along the waterway, including sawmills, paper mills, distilleries, tanneries and forges. The remains of many of these mills can still be seen.

The most popular stop on the trail is Seneca Mills Falls, a 40-foot waterfall surrounded by the ruins of the former Seneca Paper Mill. About half a mile to the east are the 20-foot high Cascade Falls — not as spectacular as Seneca Mills, but still beautiful. If you look carefully as you ride (or hike), you might see turtles sunning themselves on logs in Turtle Pond, and ruins of a bridge which once led to the Village of Hopeton, which disappeared as Dresden began to grow.

The Friends of the Outlet have put together a very informative brochure describing all of the trail’s historical treasures. They’ve even created an audio tour, which — for an all-volunteer organization — is really impressive. Their efforts remind me of the dedication to preserving natural habitats exhibited by our very own Friends of Webster Trails.

The next day, before heading back to Webster, Jack and I tackled another bike trail, the Cayuga-Seneca Canal Trail between Waterloo and Geneva. This one was only about five miles long, and the surface was actually a bit smoother than the KOT, so it was even easier to ride.

We rode from Waterloo to Geneva, where the trail ends at Seneca Lake Park. There, we took some time to relax, have a snack, and watch the seagulls along the lake shore before heading back to Waterloo.

This trail (or at least this section of it) doesn’t have as much history as the KOT, but it had something better. About two miles in, a local resident has created a wonderland of flowers, dragons, teddy bears, angels, bunny rabbits and more. The display stretches about 200 yards, with a welcome sign at each end marking the beginning of the whimsy. It’s clearly a labor of love, and surely brightens the day of anyone who passes through.

Lock CS4 sits on the canal in Waterloo, which is pretty cool to see, and when I rode over to get a closer look, I discovered something else that was even more cool.

Waterloo (officially the “birthplace of Memorial Day”) has installed an outstanding American Civil War Memorial just to the north of the lock on Washington St. It’s a small area of land, but it has so many meaningful markers, monuments and historic artifacts that even after examining them for a half hour, I still feel like I need to go back.

The memorial recognizes 59 men from Waterloo who died in the Civil War. It includes individual cenotaphs for each man, marked with his name, regiment, where he died and how old he was. There’s a North South Cenotaph, constructed with stones from each of the 36 states which existed at the end of the Civil War. The Star Stone is adorned with 620 golden stars, each of which represents 1,000 Union and Confederate soldiers lost in the Civil War. A Woman’s Cenotaph pays tribute to all of the women of the Civil War.

You see? Pretty cool, and there’s so much more. It was a great discovery and I need to go back.

So next time you need a short adventure, I recommend you take a hike or a bike trip along the Keuka Outlet Trail or the Seneca-Cayuga Trail. And if you’re a Civil War buff, definitely head out Waterloo to check out their memorial.

RL Thomas Class of ’65 reunion honors classmate’s legacy

12 Aug

Last Friday evening, 82 graduates from the Webster Thomas High School Class of 1965 gathered at the White House in Webster Park for their 60th reunion. As with most reunions, there was plenty of food, along with photo boards, yearbooks, and newspaper clippings spread across several tables. Inside and out, old friends and new mingled in small groups, drinks in hand, reconnecting, reminiscing, and laughing over shared memories.

But this year’s celebration was more than just a stroll down memory lane. The Class of 1965 decided to turn their 60th reunion into a celebration with a purpose.

Instead of charging admission, organizers chose to honor the legacy and passion of their late classmate, Bill O’Rourke, Jr. In place of a ticket fee, members of the Class of ’65 were invited to contribute to the O’Rourke Scholarship Fund.

Bill’s classmates responded enthusiastically, raising an amazing $6,500 to the fund, proving that even after six decades, their school spirit is stronger than ever.

Reunion organizer Bob (“BG”) Guerra observed that the amount surpassed what they would have raised through normal ticket sales. “What happens is, people just feel like my money’s not going to somebody to pay Proietti’s,” he said.

As he presented the check to Bill’s first wife Dottie, Bob noted that, “What we’re going to donate tonight will allow them to fund that program for the next six years without any additional donations. The money is going to make sure kids continue to get educated.”

“We’re making a difference in some kids’ lives.”

Bill, Jr., with wholehearted support from the Webster Central School District (WCSD), established the O’Rourke Scholarship Fund after his father, Bill O’Rourke, Sr., passed in 2006. Its original objective was to present a monetary award to a senior male varsity player each year, chosen by the athletic secretary and basketball coach; someone who reflected O’Rourke’s own passion for academic excellence and sportsmanship.

Bill, Jr. passed away in 2020, but the memorial fund remains strong. With support from the O’Rourke family, the scholarship’s criteria and amount have grown. It now awards $1,000 to a senior boy and a senior girl varsity basketball player every year.

Don’t blink! Check out the library’s tiny art show

11 Aug

Next time you’re at the Webster Public Library, make sure to check out the Tiny Art Show set up in the main lobby next to the Community Room.

The exhibit was organized again this year by Teen and Family Experiences Librarian Colleen Hernandez. Advertising for the event began earlier this summer, when participants were encouraged to pick up blank canvases at the library and make them beautiful. Artists had all of July to perfect their work, and then bring them back to the library in August for display.

This year’s theme is “Color My World,” echoing the Summer Reading Program theme. Colleen received more than 100 submissions (so many more than the 60 she had last year) from participants of all ages, and the artists clearly took the theme to heart. The tiny artwork pieces they produced are impressive and eclectic … and VERY colorful.

Their subject matter ranges from animals to plants to scenes both abstract and realistic. They’re created with pencil, markers, crayons and poster paint. Several of them feature 3-D elements which pop from the canvas.

All this month, library patrons are encouraged to stop by and vote for their favorite pieces (you must vote in person). The display will be taken down the first week of September, so make sure to get there soon. The winning prize? “Fame and glory,” Colleen, said, including recognition on the library’s social media pages.

The photos give you a sneak peek of the mini canvases, but you really need to see them close-up and in person to really appreciate the artistry. (And you have to vote in person, anyway.) So stop by the library sometime in the next few weeks and cast your vote. (Warning: it’s going to be a difficult choice.)

The Webster Library is located at 980 Ridge Rd., at the back of Webster Plaza.

Discovering the Herman Rd. Forever Wild Forest

10 Aug

I do believe I have a new favorite trail.

Most of my friends and acquaintances know that I’m a huge fan of our town’s trails. And when they ask me what my favorite trail system is, I invariably say it’s Four Mile Creek, which I love because of its natural beauty and the old cars that you can see along the paths.

But last week, the Friends of Webster Trails introduced me to the Herman Rd. Forever Wild Forest — and it is beautiful.

Last Tuesday, the Friends hosted an official ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new trail system, which is located on Herman Rd. east of Pellett Rd. The mature forest features two miles of easy and intermediate trails, some which were pre-existing, and others which were built and improved by the Friends. They connect with the pink and orange trails at Whiting Rd. Nature Preserve. allowing hikers to extend their adventure. Frequent blazes and trail markers make navigating the trails especially easy.

The two-year-long effort to preserve the land and create the trail system is an incredible example of how residents, businesses, local organizations and governmental agencies can work together for the good of the community.

The 28.7-acre parcel of land was acquired in late 2023 from Gary and Judy Wood, thanks to a $270,000 Community Forest Conservation Grant from the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC), procured by the Town of Webster, and a donation in memory of Michael A. Johnson. About 35 people attended the ribbon cutting ceremony, including Judy Wood and representatives from the Friends of Webster Trails, the NYS DEC and Webster Parks and Recreation.

After a few speeches and the cutting of the ribbon, Herman Rd. Trail Steward Ben Wisniewski led about a dozen hikers on a one-mile long walk along a few of the beautiful new trails. There were a few small hills, but in general it was an easy hike that snaked through old and new forest, thick with more than a dozen varieties of trees. Small animals skittered across the path, and birdsong filled the air. It was extremely peaceful.

A well-designed informational kiosk enhances the experience, providing lots of information about the preserve and its trail system. Plus, there’s plenty of parking.

The Friends of Webster Trails website has lots more information about each of the preserve’s four trails, including their difficulty and some of the natural features you can look for along the hike. There’s even mention of “hidden treasures”: a half-buried car engine, an old cistern, and a stone foundation.

So check out the website, then head on out to enjoy the new trails for yourself. And if you really like what you see, please consider supporting the Friends of Webster Trails by becoming a member. It’s only $10 for individuals and $15 for families. Your support will really help the Friends continue building and maintaining outstanding trails like these.

Penfield Yoga Therapy named Chamber business of the month

8 Aug

Congratulations to Penfield Yoga Therapy, honored as the August Business of the Month by the Webster Chamber of Commerce.

Penfield Yoga Therapy, located at 2132 Five Mile Line Rd., is owned and operated by Kaitlyn Vittozzi, a certified yoga therapist who began teaching yoga in 2014. Early on, Kaitlyn noticed something beyond just physical movement: her students were looking for deeper healing, tools they could use off the mat to feel better physically, mentally, emotionally and energetically. That insight led her to pursue additional training to become a Certified Yoga Therapist, eventually opening her own space in Penfield after subletting in Webster for several years.

Penfield Yoga Therapy offers a specialized combination of yoga and mindfulness skills for new moms and corporate professionals who are struggling with stress, physical pain and the elusive sense of balance we all seek. Kaitlyn’s mission is simple yet powerful: to help people reconnect with their bodies, release tension, and get back to doing what they love — spending more quality, connected time with the people who matter most.

Penfield Yoga Therapy is a one-woman show, and Kaitlyn has been running the business since 2019. But her impact stretches far beyond her studio walls. She volunteers with ROCovery Fitness and 13thirty Cancer Connect, and sits on the board of KMB for Answers, helping raise awareness and support for those impacted by eating disorders.

The Webster Chamber of Commerce Events and Honors Committee presents a Business of the Month award to one of their member businesses at each of their monthly breakfast meetings. It’s one way the Chamber helps keep their member businesses and organizations visible throughout the Webster community.

The Webster Chamber of Commerce hosts a monthly breakfast for Chamber members, guests, and visitors who are interested in investigating Chamber membership. The August Breakfast will be held on Friday Aug. 22 beginning at 7 a.m. at the Webster Golf Club, 440 Salt Rd. The monthly breakfasts are opportunities to network, meet new contacts, develop current business relationships, learn, and earn visibility for your business or organization. This is the largest monthly Chamber networking event in the Greater Rochester area, with 70-90 attendees. Bring a door prize for visibility and your business card, to take your chances on winning a prize, too!

Visitors and members are welcome. Please register here.

Webster community mailbag

7 Aug

Today’s mailbag is stuffed with reminders about many events I’ve already mentioned in the blog, but which might have slipped under your radar the first time.

This first one is coming up this Saturday Aug. 9, a “Hike Through History” at Webster Union Cemetery. This is a self-guided tour in which participants can step back in time and “meet” the some of our town’s earliest settlers. Historical re-enactors will be sprinkled throughout the cemetery to tell their stories from Webster’s earliest days. 

Hike Through History will be held from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the cemetery, 345 Webster Rd. (corner of Rt 250 and Woodhull Road). Requested donation for the experience is $10, and all proceeds will be used to help repair the headstones of our earliest settlers. Read more about the event in this blog.

Take a test drive, win cool stuff

Also this Saturday, Aug. 9, West Herr Ford at 810 Ridge Rd. (corner of Five Mile Line) is hosting a Test Drive Fundraising Event from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., to benefit the Webster Community Chest.

For every person who registers and takes a quick test drive, West Herr will donate $40 to Webster Community Chest. If 50 people sign up and drive, that means a cool $2,000 for one of Webster’s coolest agencies. Every person who test drives will get a raffle ticket for a chance to win Buffalo Bills merchandise and other prizes. Plus, lunch (or coffee and donuts) will be provided.

No appointment is necessary. Just walk in, and choose from a whole line-up of cars and trucks (or they’ll bring out something else off the lot if you want). Just hop in, take a short drive, return and hop out. No hard sales, no obligation. Takes about 15 minutes.

Marching Band Food Truck Rodeo

The Webster Marching Band Boosters will host their 9th Annual Food Truck Rodeo on Thursday, Aug. 14 from 5 to 8 p.m. at the Fireman’s Field on Sanford St.

Participating trucks include Bruster’s, Eat Greek, Macarollin, Mr. Squeeze, Rob’s Kabobs, Roc City Sammich and Tuscan Wood Fired Pizza. The event will also feature artisan vendors, a kids’ play place, face painting, plus a 50/50 and vendor raffles. Guests will also get a preview of this year’s Webster Marching Band show, “In Times Of” at 6 and 7 p.m.

Strike up the band

Our very own Webster Village Band will perform their final concert of the summer on Thursday Aug. 28 at the Harmony Park band shell on Phillips Rd. Titled “The Band Concert,” the selections will be traditional band standards, plus music from Billy Joel and Jim Brickman.

The concert begins at 7 p.m. and are free and open to the public. Bring a blanket, lawn chairs and a cooler, and stretch out on the spacious lawn area in front of the band shell.

Donate school supplies

Webster NY Hope is collecting NEW supplies from now through Aug. 19 to stuff in backpacks for children in our community who are in need. You can see the entire wish list on the Webster NY Hope Facebook page.

Supplies can be dropped off at the Webster Public Library, or at Webster Hope during the agency’s open hours, Monday-Thursday 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Friday and Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Music at the Arb

This summer’s final Music at the Arb concert at the Webster Arboretum is scheduled for Thursday Aug. 14, featuring the String Brothers from 6:30 to 8 p.m. These concerts are held at the gazebo, and are free and open to the public.
