Sign up for YWCA summer camp

The YWCA of Niagara will hold a summer camp in 2009 for school-aged children in Niagara Falls at its Carolyn’s House location, 542 6th St. The YWCA currently holds summer camp programs in Lockport and will expand those services to Niagara Falls in 2009. The camp will run for 10 weeks during the summer and will include weekly field trips and peer-related educational programs. For more information or for an application, please call 278-9662.

AREA

Immigrants’ clothing/pictures sought

Werner Karsch of Schmolln, Gemany, is seeking pictures of clothing worn by immigrants from the Uckermark region from 1860 and earlier.

This would be the area of ancestors in Wheatfield, Martinsville and Wolcotsville.

Karsch hopes that descendants in the United States may still have clothing or pictures they are willing to share.

Call Elaine Timm at 471-2217 or 297-1786, who will take a picture of your article and forward it to Karsch.

Revised hours for the Buffalo Zoo

The Buffalo Zoo is open daily from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m., rain or shine. The grounds remain open one hour after gates close.

However, the zoo will be closed Mondays and Tuesdays during the months of January and February.

For more info, please contact Jennifer Fields at 995-6129.
