In 2008, Kate Mini arrived in WNY riding the sails of a mighty 73 foot schooner christened, The Spirit of Buffalo.

This week on Buffalostyle, Kate will join me to chat about the unique floating classroom that she has created on that ship and how her Buffalo Urban Outdoor Education (BUOE) program is changing the vistas and the views of WNY children.

Marcia Dautch: Jenss Gives and Receives

In May of 2009, Marcia Dautch opened the doors to her fabulous Jenss stores for a fund raising sale of Vera Bradley merchandise, to aid in breast cancer research. The sale was conducted in memory of Orchard Park resident, Lisa Barniak, a Vera Bradley fan who lost her battle with breast cancer earlier that year.

This month, Jenss was given a special award for their charitable efforts and Marcia will join us with the details. http://www.reedsjenss.com/
