Deadline for Fashion Show Tickets is Aug. 8

The last day to order tickets for the Thompson Health Guild Fashion Show is Monday, Aug. 8.

The guild, UR Medicine Thompson Health’s auxiliary, is hosting show on Sunday, Aug. 14 in the café at Finger Lakes Community College, where there will also be a brunch buffet and bottomless mimosa bar as well as “mini shows” and boutique shopping. The event runs from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., with featured fashions from the Blue Door Boutique, Carmela's Bridal & Prom, Chico’s, Dick Anthony Ltd., the Guild Gallery Gift Shop and Wanda’s Wearables.

With open seating, tickets are $50 per guest. VIP tables seating eight, with preferred seating and goodie bags for each person at the table, are available for $500. Proceeds benefit the Education Fund and the Scholarship Fund managed by the guild. The former helps Thompson staff members attain education and certifications to bolster their careers and enhance patient care. The latter enables the guild to contribute funds to qualified staff members' tuition bills and to award up to five $2,000 scholarships to high school seniors in Thompson’s service area each year.

Thompson to Host Aug. 9 Information Session on Becoming a CNA

UR Medicine Thompson Health is hosting an information session on Tuesday, Aug. 9, for community members interested in beginning careers as certified nursing assistants (CNAs).

Thompson offers a five-week CNA training course and covers the full tuition, with participants receiving payment while taking the class. They are hired into a CNA position at Thompson’s M.M. Ewing Continuing Care Center, where they are expected to remain employed – in a full- or part-time position – for at least one year from certification.

Beginning at 4 p.m., the one-hour information session will be held in the ground floor Thompson Conference Center (TCC) at F.F. Thompson Hospital. Those planning on attending must RSVP, emailing 

 no later than Sunday, Aug. 7. On the date of the information session, enter the campus from West Street to park in the lot behind the hospital. A Thompson recruiter will meet attendees at the entrance to the Constellation Center for Health and Healing – located at the back of the hospital – and take them to the TCC.

For more information on being a CNA at Thompson, which was recently named one of the “Top 150 Places to Work in Healthcare” by

Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards is thrilled to announce the release of four new wine seltzers: Red Cat Splash, White Cat Splash, Pink Cat Splash, and Red Cat Dark Splash.

Using their most popular sweet wines, the Hazlitt family has created a new line of delicious, bubbly, low-alcohol wine seltzers made with only real wine. These convenient and stylish cans are perfect for any-day enjoyment but will undoubtedly make a “Splash” this summer with their light and refreshing flavors. Each wine seltzer is 6.1% ABV ( alcohol by volume) and is a refreshing version of their namesake’s (Red Cat, White Cat, Pink Cat, Red Cat Dark wines) with a touch of carbonation.

Our Dry Riesling is loaded with lemon and lime zest, and finishes of fresh pear and apple. 0% Residual Sugar. Alcohol 12.00%

Soul Mining Bees

Bees are an insect that we are all familiar with. When you picture their home life, you see a honeycomb hive in the hole of a tree or square panels maintained by a beekeeper. There are also ground dwelling bees called miners or chimney bees. Read More.

Easy Exercises to Improve Balance

While tumbling into a potential sweetheart is cute in Rom-Com movies, in reality it can cause real damage. Having nothing to break your fall but the ground can be worse. As we fall, the natural tendency is to splay out our arms which can easily lead to a fractured wrist, arm, or other bones. Read More.

Homemade Salad Dressing

This time of the year we are enjoying the bounty of home gardens. Frequently that includes a tossed salad. This can be the entree, a side dish, a starter, or European style palate cleanser at the end of the meal. Read More.
