Dunkirk holiday event Monday
Business Roundup
Dunkirk Beautification Committee members are planning the annual Feel the Warmth of Christmas in Dunkirk program for Monday, Nov. 26, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in downtown Dunkirk.
Santa will be leaving the West Jay Middle School parking lot at 5:30 p.m. with a police and fire department escort to the Pizza King Restaurant in downtown Dunkirk where he will be talking to children until 7 p.m., they said.
“Treat bags will be given and photo opportunities will be available. Photos may be purchased for $2,” committee members said.
Free food, door prizes and refreshments will be available at the nearby Veterans of Foreign Wars Post Hall, corner of Washington and Main Streets, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. with door prize drawings at 6:45 p.m.
Annual meeting
Former Portland resident Don Matchett will be the featured speaker at the annual dinner meeting of the Winchester Area Chamber of Commerce on Thursday, Dec. 6, at the Winchester Community Center. Social time will be at 6 p.m. with the dinner at 6:30 p.m.
Sandy relief
Tyson Foods, parent company of Tyson Mexican Original in Portland, has pledged a corporate match of up to $100,000 of employee donations to the American Red Cross relief and recovery efforts after Hurricane Sandy.
Employee honored
Sylvain Deville, a researcher in materials sciences at the Saint-Gobain/CNRS Joint Research Unit in Cavaillon (France), was awarded a Bronze Medal by the CNRS French Research .
Saint-Gobain is the parent company of Verallia, which operates a glass container factory in Dunkirk.
The medal was given to Sylvain Deville for his research on understanding and controlling the freezing of colloids.
The use of a highly original freeze-drying method, as a process to structure ceramics, has proven to be extremely interesting as it provides completely new structures controlled at the micrometric scale. Colloids are particles so small that they are unaffected by gravity.
Among the many applications of colloid freezing, its use for obtaining materials inspired from nature seems to be particularly innovative and promising, the company said in a prepared statement.
