Good morning, Rochester.

After a burst pipe flooded Scottsville Ice Arena on October 28th, the rink closed for repairs and local supporters, including members of Flower City Special Hockey, launched a GoFundMe that has raised over $6,000—this effort aims to help the family-owned rink reopen after Thanksgiving.

The Veterans Outreach Center hosted its annual Stars and Stripes Celebration on Saturday evening (at Rochester Riverside Convention Center) to honor local military members.

Every dollar raised went toward helping veterans find jobs, housing, and support to rebuild their lives.

Today, Downtown ROCs is commissioning a mural to honor longtime community leader Midge Thomas on the exterior wall of Abilene Bar and Lounge at 153 Liberty Pole Way.

Local muralist Shawnee Hill will paint the artwork throughout today, and it will show two outstretched hands connecting—symbolizing unity and compassion.

BJ’s Wholesale Club announced that it will bring back its free Thanksgiving turkey promotion—members spending $150 or more by Nov.

10 will receive a coupon for a fresh or frozen Butterball turkey with a maximum value of $25 that excludes organic turkeys. The coupon will be available in the BJ’s app or online starting Nov. 15 and can be claimed until Nov. 26—valid at its Greece, Henrietta and Webster stores.

Sal Maiorana and Adam Benigni shared their postgame reactions after the Bills won 28-21 over the Chiefs, noting the key plays that led to the team's impactful victory.

Ernie Clement of the Toronto Blue Jays from the Rochester area was a Gold Glove finalist at two positions last Sunday but did not win the award—if he had, he would have been the first local player to earn that honor.

His high school coach noted that Clement always made plays that set him apart.
