At the conclusion of the Relay, around 7 a.m. on Sunday, May 20 participants will also bury a time capsule to commemorate the upcoming Perinton Bicentennial.

ER Village Board votes to push Eyer Building project ahead

ER Village Board votes to push Eyer Building project ahead

The East Rochester Village Board of Trustees took a bold step on Monday by voting to borrow whatever is necessary to move the Eyer Building renovation forward.

The board voted unanimously to authorize the village to borrow up to $5.5 million in bonds to go toward the $7.6 million project to demolish the existing village office buildings that are now home to the town court, senior center, public cable TV channel, and library, and move them into the Eyer Building.

The building is now vacant and has 67,000 square-feet of space that will also be rented out to businesses and other tenants.

Fairport dancer Tara Lally showing her sultry side

Tara Lally is going from scary to sexy in her new role with the the Rochester City Ballet.

The Fairport dancer will play the leading lady in RCB’s production of “Carmen” as part of its choreographers showcase, “Dance Mix,” which opens this weekend at Nazareth College.

The sensual ballet is a rendition of the opera by the same name, set in Seville, Spain.

“The girls are sexy, and they aren’t afraid to show their sexuality,” said Lally.

The 27-year-old Fairport native has been dancing with the Draper Center for Dance Education for over 20 years.

Her role as Carmen requires her to seduce the unwilling Don Jose, who is soon driven mad with desire for her.

Lally says the personality of her character has some similarities to the role of the cruel, bloodthirsty Elizabeth Báthory in “The Blood Countess” that she played last year.

“They’re both confident and powerful women,” she said.

Unlike the countess, Carmen is more playful

County Judge Frank Geraci nominated for federal judgeship

President Obama has officially nominated Monroe County Court Judge Frank Geraci for a spot on the federal bench.

Geraci has been a county court judge for more than 13 years. He served a city court judge before that. Geraci is a McQuaid graduate, and once worked as an assistant district attorney.

President Obama calls Geraci highly qualified, and a valuable addition to the U.S. District Court in Western New York.

Geraci was recommended by Senator Chuck Schumer, whose nominee last year, former D.A. Mike Green, was never confirmed.

"Great Gatsby" themed gala to benefit Lollypop Farm on May 19

To help support Lollypop Farm, LeChase Construction and Honorary Chair Dr. Jerid Fisher will host a night of roaring twenties glamour at “The Great Catsby” gala event at Sonnenberg Gardens and Mansion in Canandaigua on Saturday, May 19, at 7 p.m.

In an event that is sure to be the “cat’s pajama’s,” guests are invited to get dolled up in period attire as they are transported back in time. They’ll enjoy twenties-inspired performances by a professional performance company featuring Charleston dancers in flapper attire, a Tommy-gun hand-balancing act, and a flair-juggling bar back.

The festivities will also allow guests to stroll through the beautiful gardens, indulge in some bathtub gin and rolled cigars at a prohibition-themed bar, dance the night away to a live speakeasy band, and meander through a vintage car display. Silent and live auctions will benefit the homeless animals and community programs at Lollypop.
