From Our ER:

As Summer winds down (it is still 3 weeks
before Fall hits despite popular belief Summer
ends on Labor Day), I hope everyone had the
chance to do something exciting while enjoying
the gorgeous Buffalo weather.

I would like to thank all the volunteers who
donated their time as Parking Attendants for
Canal Fest. With the large amount of volunteers,
we accomplished our goal of raising money to
stabilize our finances. Thank you again to
everyone who braved the hot summer sun. We
owe you all a great deal of gratitude. We also
experienced great turnouts for our "Patio Series"
featuring the bands "Slim Chance" and the
"Party Hounds" and our "60's Night".

Looking ahead, September is a rather "quiet"
month. I am hoping we can use this month to
work together planning more events and
fundraisers. If we continue working together, as
we proved by participating in the Canal Fest,
we can accomplish anything.
