Kristin McElheny, of Penfield, was recently inducted along with 70 other students into the University of New Haven's Honor Society for Experiential Education.

To be inducted, students had to complete two experiences, such as a faculty-mentored research project, an internship, an academic service learning project or a study abroad excursion. The student must also be ranked in the top 20 percent of his or her class.

The society supports intellectual development through research, encouraging the development of professional integrity, stimulating community engagement, promoting global awareness and preparing students for purposeful lives.

A new hometown sports apparel store, Eastside Sports, opens doors at Four Corners this week.

Owner Mary Kay Cummings first got the idea to open Eastside Sports when she was looking for shirts for her children who play Penfield youth sports.

As she started shopping, she noticed that it was difficult to find a nearby retailer that sold the Penfield apparel she was looking for.

“There’s nowhere to walk in and get it unless you go online, and I’m not an online shopper,” said Cummings, 41.

So about six months ago, she brought her request before the town when she learned the space at Four Corners, which used to house  Divine Hair, would soon become available.

The Town Board gave the shop the green light last month, and Cummings will open her store on Tuesday, May 8.

The 41-year-old continues to own and operate a hair salon in Fairport, Studio 36, which she’s run for the last 10 years.

News10NBC has learned the missing 38-year-old Walworth man has been found.

Police say Kenneth Young walked away from his home in Wayne County Sunday afternoon. People were concerned about him because he is mentally challenge, has diabetes and needed medical attention.

The Wayne County Sheriff’s Department says a Webster Police officer found him walking along Ridge Road near the Webster Police Department. Wayne County Sheriff's deputies say he is ok.
