A LETTER FROM REPRESENTATIVE
1 ANIEL M. W.. INCH
Dear Enfield Residents,
This is the time of year
that we all seem to be patri-
otic and have community cel-
ebrations and events. It al-
ways reaffirms my feelings
of being proud to be an
American and how we enjoy
many liberties that are in our
national constitution.
The residents in Enfield
this year attained another ma-
jor area in which they can
exercise a vote— at the
Ithaca City School District.
Now for the first time Enfield
citizens all have equal voice
in voting for or against their
proposed school budget.
Those in the Newfield and
Trumansburg school district
have had this opportunity for a
long time. Now you need to
find a candidate for the
school board to represent
more of the rural perspec-
tive.
Hopefully, by next fall, we
all should enjoy having 911 for
emergency services. Watch
the newspapers for informa-
tion about timing and the at-
tributes of the system. It has
been a long time coming; how-
ever, I think the enhancements
will be worth the wait and the
frustration.
Enjoy the summer patriotic
activities. PIease support your
local community organizations
that put on these events, and
above all, take time to reflect
on the joys of being Ameri-
can and having the ability to
exercise your vote, enjoy
many freedoms, and being
able to have a voice in our
government.
Sincerely,
Daniel M. Winch

The Enfield Volunteer
Fire Company
The Fire Company has
recently purchasesd with the help
of the Ladies Auxiliary, 15 grave
markers and a few dozen flags.
These markers and flags will be put
into place by Memorial Day. We
hope to have, within the next two
years, enough markers for all Fire
Company members who have
passed away. Over the years the
fire company has recieved
numerous memorial donations.
These donations are used to
purchace specialized equipment,
such as our most recent purchase,
the semi -automatic defibrillator.
This particular purchase uis
comprised of donations which were
recieved from the past two years
along with a grant the Fire
Company received from Prudential
Insurance. We hope to create, in
the very near future a Memorial
Book for public display. This book
will indicate who the donation was
made in memory of and what piece
of equipment was purchased.
In January 1948, the Enfield
Volunteer Fire Company was
chartered. A committee has been
formed and plans are in the works
for many events during the year
1998 for the 50 year commoration.
Plans are underway to include
extra fundraisers to help support
those events. The chicken
barbecues we had this winter were
a success and we thank all who
were able to support us.
Our next major fund raiser
is the Carnival. Yes, you read it
right, the Carnival. It's back and
we hope better-than-everl The
dates have been set for the 25th-
28th of June. Wednesday night
we will start off with a ride matinee
from 6-10 PM, which is a pay -one
-price ($8) for unlimited rides. We'll
also offer a dinner special.
Thursday night we will offer a
Kiddie's Parade. Friday night we
will have a chicken barbecue,
starting around 5PM, with fireworks
starting around 9PM. Saterday the
ride matinee will run from 12-5PM,
again, pay -one -price, followed by
another barbecue. As in the past,
Wheelock Rides, Inc. will provide
the rides and concessions. Also,
we understand that the weather is
supposed to be excellent,
therefore, mark your calendars for
the 4-day spectacular! In addition,
see any of the members of the Fire
Company for advance ride tickets -
Big discounts offeredl
While your calendar is out,
don't forget our 7th annual Car
Show, which will be held on the 3rd
of August. Not to mention the
famous "Enduckie Derby."
Aside from these
fundraisers, other activities that
have happened or are planned:
a 8 of our Explorers successfully

defibrillator.
Our first "Adopt -a -Highway"
clean-up was in April which
covers Route 327 from Route
79 to Trumbles Comers Road.
=> Defensive Driving Course is
planned for June.
In closing, we would like to
welcome our two newest members
of the fire company: Jim
Varriccheo and Scott Prutsman.
If you too would like to become a
member and donate your time and
skills to the community, call either

would be glad to have you!

of you not familiar with Club Ithaca, it was started in the summer of
'93 by Scott and Sue Hamilton, owner's of Ide's Lanes. They began
the Club in response to the lack of alcohol and smoke -free social
opportunities for youths ages I 1-15.
Once again, the Hamilton have generously donated their
facility, Ide's Lanes. It will be closed to the general public and open
exclusively to local youth ages 11-15
The demand for alternative programing has proven
substantial, over 1000 students participated in Club Ithaca this past
summer with an average of 125 students attending per night Ten high
school juniors and seniors have been officially hired as apprentices
through the Learning Web, and will be actively involved in the
operation and formatting of the programming.
All youth participants will be asked to stay until the end of
each party so that parents will know about their whereabouts. A $4
donation fee will be requested to partially defray the expenses. The
goal of this program is to provide local youth with a social alternative
and place in which they can feel safe and have fun.

ENFIELD'S CHURCHES
In
ENFIELD UNITED - - was appointed Assistant Pastor.
METHODIST CHURCH
In the early days, church services were
nd held in homes aschools. The Methodist
Church of Enfield was recognized w a separate
charge in 1835. The church was built at
Bostwick Canters the same year. In 1876, the
church building was moved to Enfield Center.
The church was raised up for a large basement to
make room for Sunday School. Since 1876. the
church has stood on this spot, a place of meeting
for the worship of God and activities related to
His work in the community. This building has
been used for generations of the local people,
and continues to be available to town people in
need today.
In 1960, the outside walls were
repaired with concrete, and in the comerstone
was found a copper box Htstory of the church
was replaced and again sealed and returned to
its finding place.
Over the vears changes have been
made such as bringing eleancrty into the
budding, a central heating system installed and

THE ENFIELD FIRST
BAPTIST CHURCH
As Enfield was pan of the Town of
ses Ulysuntil March 16. 1821. the church for a
few vears, was called the First Ulvsses Church.
On April 5. 1817. a meeting of Baptist brethren
was held at the home of Judah Baker Elder John
Lewis was chosen moderator Later meetings
were held and people were voted into
membership. The church held its first covenant
mating July 5th. 1817 and John Lewis was
invited to become the first pastor In May 1830
the name of the church was changed to the First
Baptist Church of Enfield In 1842. a
comfortable house of worship was completed in
Enfield Center The first church bell in the Town
of Enfield was hung in the belfry in April 1870.
The parsonage was erected in 1877 and in 1881
the church was moved across the road and rebuilt
where it new stands
In 1827 the Enfield Baptist and
Methodist churches began holding united
services, mating 6 months of the veer in each
church until 19% Since then, separate services
en have beheld each church having its own
pastor
The sheds for protection of horses and
camages. which stood across the road and also
north of the church, were removed in 1942. The
parsonage was sold in 1947. In 1954. some ofmi the money from this sale was used to modcze
the church. A new ceding, hardwood floor.
