Page-8-Banner Times Monday, July 29, 1985 Day Care Happenings by Madeline Hubbard We have been going through some changes th> summer - the primary one being our new Program Director. As mandated by the licensing agency of New York State, we should have a teacher with a four-year college degree majoring in Early Childhood Education. Linda Sanderson had accepted the position immediately after her graduation. However, last weekend, she changed her last name to McNitt. Congratulations \Miss Linda\ and hubby. Many readers may be wondering what has happened to our \Miss Becky\. She left the Day Care Center to go into a business venture with her father in Mexico, N.Y. We wish all the best to Miss Becky and thank her for all her efforts and time tut she had vested in her work with us. Our enrollment is low as usual for the summer sessions, but the Fall sign-ups are coming in rapidly. Be sure to call when you realize the center is the best place for your child to be while you are working. The educational, social and physical emphasis are beyond compare. Remember, we are accepting babies 7 weeks old through school students of 14 years. , The Pre-Post Services are for school children before and after school hours. Breakfast is served; supervision and suggestions given in line of games and crafts; bus services to and from school and a safe place to leave your child. The Center is opened from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., five days per week, all through the year. Last week the children were learning some common Spanish words and were trying out some Spanish foods. They had tacos Friday for lunch and enjoyed them somewhat. Little Henry is at- tending the center to acquire English and the children are trying to make him a little comfortable by using a few Spanish words. This week, we will be reviewing the shapes - by telling what they remind us of; finding some par- ticular shapes in' the room; discovering what three dimensional means; realizing shapes come in different sizes and making shapes with colored yarn. Games and crafts will coincide with the daily concepts. Friday, we shall make our own pasta by using a pasta machine. We will learn how to make thin and wide noodles; how to dry them and how they can be our side dish for lunch. All meals are prepared on the site; served without any discrimination whatsoever; and are no extra cost to the enrolled children. Call the center at 298-5070 anytime from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on week days. Call 298-2518 evenings, weekends and holidays. The Pulaski Day Care Center and Pre-Post Center are located in the educational wing of the Park Methodist Church, using the North Street entrance. -A United Way Agency CROSSWORD ACROSS ...

Are you preparing these days to attend our own dairy goat show at the Sandy Creek Fairgrounds? Entries for goats close August 12 and should be mailed to Helen Grossman, RD 1, Box 12, Sandy Creek, N.Y. Entrance fee on each animal is ten percent of the first premium or 50 cents per goat. All goats entering the fair must have a health cer- tificate signed by your veterinarian. Brucellosis and T.B. vaccinations within the past five years or a negative test within sixty days of the show. TQje-veterinarian in attendance at thfi-Jair wUl ap- prove all entries on the daj arrival. Animals must be in place by Monday at 6 p.m. Exhibitor tickets may be purchased at the office on the grounds for $3. This includes your membership to the Fair. First, second and third prizes will be $5, $3, and $2 con- secutively. Rosettes and ribbons will be given through fifth place. The judging will take place on Friday, August 23. Our own Central New York Dairy Goat Society members, Matt and Carol Frey, of the Alarest Goat Farm, Cicero, have bery kindly donated a \Best of Show\ trophy to be given on that day. Matt has extended his talents in constructing this \one of a kind\ trophy. Our goat show will not be a sanctioned show this year, but we are reaching towards that goal and are looking for more interest in showing dairy goats in our area. A sanctioned show has an official dairy goat judge who has attended a judge's school and learned to recognize all the best points in a dairy goat and thus knows how to classify each-individual animal by a set of rules. Goats win their championships this way. . We have goat judges from all around the states and Canada so we can have a wide choice. Jeff Klein, editor of United Caprine tews is from Texas and has judged it some of our sanctioned goat shows, locally. Allen Bitter; President of Central New York Dairy Goat Society lives in New York State, has judged at some of our shows and will be judging at the New York State Fair. David Funk, another judge, from Norwich, N.Y., travels around the states, is a school teacher and vice president of the National Dairy Goat Association. He also holds an office in our Central New York Dairy Goat Society. We have many weil-educated members in our Society, so the Dairy goat is a well- respected animal among reportable ambitious people. The dairy goat judge looks for conformation. That means a straight top line (not a sloping back); straight clean legs and feet (no weak pasterns); a well-attached udder (not a sling-bag); a graceful, easy walk; unblemished smooth, clean, loose skin over the ribs; rib spring; body capacity; a strong, well-shaped head; proper width of rump and chest; proper placement of teats to name some of the points. Of course, the animal must have a healthy, well-cared-for look and cowect breed character. The Nubians have their long pendulas ears. The Toggenburgs are always shades of brown in color with white markings. Saanens are white with erect ears and LaManchas have very, very short ears and the Oberhasli are red in color. It doesn't take one long to recognize the different breeds. I might add the Nubians come in all colors and the Alpines, also with their erect ears. When you attend the-fair, see if you can distinguish between breeds. The 4-H Building where we housed our goats last year at the fair is being occupied this year by the 4-H'ers who built the building in the first place, so that means we'll be under a tent this year. There should be no problem. We refused occupancy with the chickens as goats are very susceptible to coccidiosis. Adjustable pens work very well under a tent as goats like their freedom. We need you goat, lovers for support in furthering the Dairy Goat Show in Oswego County. Let's show the people what we have in our back yards. If we get enough dairy goat herds showing, we may be able to have a sanc- tioned show next year. Don't the goats deserve it? See you at the fair. -Woodard Fun Festival Date Set 1 ai II The annual Oswego County 4-H Fun Festival will be held August 10, in Mexico at BOCES.
