LE ROY PENNYSAVER & NEWS - NOVEMBER 6, 2016
Sunshine’s nursery class went “batty” over Halloween.
Dressed in costumes, the children paraded through the
pre-k room, played games, decorated bats, dug for creepy
crawlers in a corn box, listened to spooky stories and
music and shared treats. They all had a “boo-tiful” time!
Happy Halloween from SNS

About 70 dancers attended
the last of Genesee County’s
Adults with Developmental
Disabilities dances at the By-
ron Fire Hall on Thursday,
October, 20th. The Hallow-
een dance usually brings out
some pretty unique characters
and there were lots of creative,
costumed dancers who gath-
ered on the dance floor and
around the cider and donuts.
Friends re-connected as many
had not seen each other since
the May dance. DJ Tom played
some Halloween and usual
favorite tunes that filled the
dance floor. For the very last
time the Byron Firemen many
who have attended nearly ev-
ery dance pulled on their gear
and entered the hall to cheers
as the WMCA was queued up.
Everyone joined in that nostal-
gic dance.
Pat Iamon, dance coordi-
nator and originator, came to
the mic and thanked DJ Tom,
who has been the DJ from the
very first dance. Also, she
thanked her sister, Laura Platt,
Uncle Joe, Barb and Fred Reed
as well the Byron Fire Depart-
ment member volunteers and
seven Byron-Bergen student
volunteers. She went on to
say that over the past 14 years
there have been many, many
volunteers who have helped
make the dances possible.
Dawn Fisher, mom of one
of the dancers came to the
mic and asked Pat and the
other volunteers to come for-
ward so that the dancers could
give them special thanks. Ap-
plause, shouts of thank you
and hugs followed and contin-
ued on for quite a while. DJ
Tom got quite emotional with
all the thanks and goodbyes
and a group of dancers sur-
rounded him with lots of love.
“Although I wanted to re-
tire as dance organizer,” Ia-
mon said, “my goal was to
find a group who would con-
tinue providing this wonder-
ful social opportunity.” At
the May dance Iamon shared
her knowledge in the form of
7-page outline with a group
of interested parents. That
seed planted in May has led
to the start of a new era. “It
is my pleasure,” said Iamon,
“to announce the very first of
two planned dances. The Hol-
iday Bash, hosted by Friends
for the Future Self-Advocacy
Group will be held on Friday,
December 2nd at the ARC of
Genesee Orleans on 38 Wood-
row Road, Batavia. RSVP
by November 30th to Kim
Travale at 585-329-5879.”
All the children at Love Bugs Preschool spent the last few
weeks of October getting ready for one of their favorite
holidays, Halloween! They read Halloween books, made
Halloween crafts and even did Halloween experiments
like an erupting pumpkin volcano! The Nursery and Pre-K
friends had the chance to “trick or treat” at Our Lady of
Mercy’s Parish Office. Father Michael, Father James
and the rest of the office passed our special treats to the
children. It was a day to remember! Pictured here is the
morning Nursery class.
