Mary Alice Price, the former superintendent of the Pittsford Central School District, will be inducted into the New York State Senate’s “Women of Distinction” by Senator Ted O’Brien Tuesday night.

"I am honored to welcome Ms. Price to Albany and recognize her for a remarkable career in education,” Senator O’Brien said.  “Her leadership and dedication to providing our children with a welcoming, nurturing learning environment serve have made our community a better place.  She is truly deserving of this award, and it is a privilege to name her one of the Senate’s 'Women of Distinction.'”

Senator O’Brien says this program honors women who have made significant contributions in fields including business, education and community leadership, or who have overcome significant adversity.

The Rochester Area Ford Dealers have teamed up with the Rochester Red Wings to let local troops present the Color Guard at all weekend home games.

“The Ford Dealers are excited to partner with the Red Wings Baseball to sponsor this great opportunity once again,” said Dom Genova, representative for the Rochester Area Ford Dealers. “Local scouts, their troop leaders and parents, really enjoy heading onto the field with their sports idols and having the honor of presenting the Color Guard.”

On opening day last month, Boy Scout Troop 262 of Webster presented the Ford Color Guard during the National Anthem before the Red Wings took on the Buffalo Bisons.
