Corning native, combat vet Jason Shaddock shares Veterans Day lessons

Hundreds came to honor servicemen and women Wednesday, Nov. 11 at Corning's annual Veterans Day ceremony at the Veterans Memorial Park, off Park Avenue. Brian Francis, commander of the Corning American Legion and a retired U.S. Army veteran with 26 years of service, emphasized the role of military service in safeguarding fundamental freedoms. "It is a soldier, not a poet who has given up freedom of speech," Francis said. "It is a soldier, not the campus organizer, who gives us freedom to demonstrate. It is a soldier who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag." Francis said these liberties were earned through the sacrifices and service of those who defended the nation. Jason Shaddock, Deputy Commissioner for New York State Department of Veterans Service and combat veteran of the United State Marine Corps and the United States Army, thanked the Corning American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4218 for co-sponsoring the Veterans Day event. "As a native of Corning, is especially meaningful to be here today," Shaddock said while speaking at the Veterans Memorial Park event. "I know the character of the people of the Southern Tier. I

The Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout 30-Year Vertical Tasting Journey will be held Saturday, Nov. 14 at Carey's Brew House on Bridge Street in Corning, to raise money for the Bampa's House. Joe Carey, owner of Carey's Brew House and a longtime member of the Bampa's House Board of Directors, said the Art of Beer & Food, a multi-course experience, will begin at 4 p.m. Saturday at Carey's Brew House. "It will feature 30 years of Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout beer collection," Carey said. "You will never find another tasting like this of Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout except if you were at the Brooklyn brewery." Carey said much of the Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout collection was done by Jim Dugan, whose family established Bampa's House after he passed away on Feb. 21, 2016, at the age of 68, after a battle with cancer. "Carey is a cornerstone of the people in the community that help build Bampa's," said Steve Ritter, President of Bampa's House.
