				<description><![CDATA[The Herschell Carrousel Factory Museum is proud to be a participating venue in New York’s Path Through History Weekends taking place in early June. Celebrating the state’s unique historical and cultural significance, Path Through History Weekends feature special programs and events from New York City, north to the Canadian border, west to Buffalo, and everywhere in between. It’s an exciting state-wide event and a great way to kick-off the summer tourism season. 

You can take part by discovering the carrousel’s legacy in the Tonawandas on Saturday and Sunday, June 8 – 9, from 12:00pm – 4:00pm at the museum. Tour the museum’s exhibits of antique carrousel animals, see woodcarvers at work, hear the familiar strains of the band organ, and take a ride on the 1916 #1 Special carrousel. A special highlight of the weekend is a lecture and carving demonstration by the museum’s carving instructor at 1:00pm on Saturday, June 8. Younger visitors will enjoy craft activities inspired by the carrousel and other Herschell rides. All activities are included with regular museum admission ($6 adults; $5 seniors; $3 students ages 2 – 16).

New York’s history is a profound competitive advantage for the state: protecting, preserving and promoting our heritage resources is a critical component of economic development and revitalization of communities throughout the state. In August 2012, Governor Andrew Cuomo announced the creation of “Path Through History,” an initiative which will not only showcase New York State’s history and cultural significance, but also promote tourism and economic development in every region of the state.  In 2013 “New York Heritage Weekend” was integrated into this new overall statewide heritage tourism plan, becoming Path Through History Weekends.

The Herschell Carrousel Factory Museum is housed in the historic Allan Herschell Company Factory building at 180 Thompson Street, North Tonawanda. For directions and further information about special events, programs or group tours, visit our web site: www.carrouselmuseum.org or contact us at 716-693-1885 or info@carrouselmuseum.org

				<description><![CDATA[Kevin Lapp, a 42 year old, widowed father of three 10 year 
old triplets, fought a long, hard battle with MDS Leukemia. He lost that battle and left this world on April 1, 2013. His three wonderful children, Brian, Kiersten and Nathan miss him so very much. They have been welcomed into the family of Kevin's sister, Patty Emmons, and their family of 6 is now a family of 9. We want to help support Kevin's children. There will be a benefit on May 18 at St. Bartholomew's from 1-4 PM ($20 per ticket - children under 12 free) with themed baskets, food and entertainment.
On Friday Night, May 31 - Buffalo's own BBC Band is giving a benefit concert on behalf of the Lapp Children. Tickets are just $15. Tickets for both events can be bought from St. Bartholomew's Church Office, 2368 Eggert Rd, Tonawanda, NY 14150, phone 831-1777. We appreciate any help you can give us in getting a great deal of support for these 3 great children.  Thank you, 
Fr. John Commins ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[BASCS held its 6th Annual Spelling Bee on Thursday afternoon. What an amazing competition it was! BASCS' 25 best spellers battled it out in 22 rounds of competition. All of the contestants gave it their best shot and did a terrific job.  As the contestants were whittled down to the top 5, it seemed to be anyone's game. Eventually 5 became 3 left standing... Third place was taken by junior, Tanesha Williams and second place secured by freshman, Aqdas Yousuf. Although an impressive showing was made by all, our victor for the day was 7th grade student, Isis Toledo! S-P-E-C-T-A-C-U-L-A-R!!!]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[The Parade of Circles, an annual event celebrating beautification projects along historic McKinley Parkway in South Buffalo, will take place at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, June 2. The event is presented by South Buffalo Alive, a nonprofit community organization dedicated to improving the quality of life in South Buffalo through ongoing preservation and beautification efforts.

Established in June 2001, the parade runs from Dorrance Circle to Heacock Park and is followed by a picnic in the park with plenty of activities for the kids. The parade will feature music and dancing as well as community groups that help make the neighborhood a special place in which to live. 

Serving as grand marshall of the 2013 parade will be Dick O’Neil of O’Neil’s Auto Service, 1951 South Park Ave., Buffalo. Parade organizers hailed O’Neil as “a great neighbor and an asset to the community.” The parade will also honor all of the very generous members of South Buffalo Alive who have supported the organization over the years, some for as many as 10 years! 

To date, South Buffalo Alive has been involved with numerous community projects, including the restoration and beautification of the McKinley and McClellan Circles; restoration of the Cazenovia Shelter House, including the “Bricks in the Bowl” garden; creation and maintenance of Tim Russert’s Children’s Garden on South Park Avenue; installation of flower planters along commercial business strips and much more.
