The BSA members and guests who attended the Wines & WWII fundraising event at home of Paula Sciuk and her husband Ken Sciog on Friday, June 12 enjoyed an evening of beautiful weather, a creative pairing of wine with an array of imaginative hors d’oeuvres, and an exciting and informative discussion and display of World War II aircraft, all of which sparked great conversation and good fellowship.

To enhance the taste of both wine and food, the extensive selection of wines from Italy, France and Oregon were paired with Italian piave cheese, French brie, prosciutto, Mediterranean and French olives and goat cheese, served with French baguettes, and a cornucopia of familiar and exotic fruits including grapes, dates, currents, Asian pears, blackberries, apricots, strawberries, cherries, kumquats, persimmons and mission figs.

Guests sipped wine and nibbled almonds and chocolate and cleansed their collective palates with lemon sorbet. Thanks, Paula and Ken from the entire BSA membership for hosting this fun fundraising event.

Our annual BSA Buffalo Garden Walk paint out at the Vermont 17th st was scheduled for July 29th and 30th but Saturday was canceled due to rain. The ever popular BSA Garden Walk Paint Out was held at the Vermont Triangle Community Garden at 17th and Vermont Streets. Typically scheduled for Saturday, July 29th Sunday, July 30, Saturday was rained out this year. However, Education Chair Nancy Mariani and 4 BSA helpers guided a constant stream of painters of all ages on Sunday from 9:30 – 4:00. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to bring the Paint Out to Buffalo’s East Side as we did for the last two years, but we hope to bring it back next year. Enjoy these photos of proud painters of all…
