  • Dinolfo Announces Name for Zoo's New Snow Leopard Cub: Silver, in Honor of Silver Family
    Tuesday, July 23, 2019 DINOLFO ANNOUNCES NAME FOR ZOO’S NEW SNOW LEOPARD CUB: SILVER, IN HONOR OF SILVER FAMILY Surprise announcement made at Seneca Park Zoo Night at Frontier Field; ‘Silver’ to make public debut at Zoo later this summer County Executive Cheryl Dinolfo today announced that the Zoo’s new snow leopard cub has been named Silver, in honor of the Silver family, who have operated the Rochester Red Wings since 1957. The name was revealed during a surprise announcement during Seneca Park Zoo Night at Frontier Field, prior to the Rochester Red Wings’ game against the Norfolk Tides. “I am so proud to announce that our Zoo’s adorable new snow leopard cub will be named ‘Silver’, in honor of one of Monroe County’s most beloved families,” said Dinolfo. “From Morrie and Anna to Naomi, the Silver family name is synonymous with excellence, kindness, and community engagement. In short, the Silvers are as much a part of Rochester as the Red Wings themselves, and there is no question that our new cub will have big ‘paws’ to fill with such a meaningful name. I thank Naomi, the Silvers, and the entire Red Wings organization for their contributions to our community and I welcome our residents to visit both our Seneca Park Zoo and Frontier Field this summer!” In 1957, Silver family patriarch Morrie Silver helped to save the future of baseball in Rochester, launching what became known as the “72 Day Miracle” that led to the founding of Rochester Community Baseball. Today, the Red Wings are the longest-running franchise in minor league sports and one of the few continuously community-owned professional teams in the country.

  • City of Rochester Name: Raul Salinas Downtown Name: Center City District County: Monroe
    Rochester, NY Submission to the Downtown Revitalization Initiative 6/10/2016 Executive Summary The revitalization of downtown Rochester must engage and retain young adults as residents who want to live and work in cities. A recent Urban Land Institute and National League of Cities supported a study of downtown Rochester, NY identified an immediate need to re-activate the Genesee Riverfront and Main Street to target diverse young adults and bring vibrancy to the fronts of downtown buildings. Critical to re-activating Rochester’s downtown is giving the job to rebuild it to the people who need the work the most. Thanks to the efforts of the Governor’s Rochester Anti-Poverty Task Force and the local Rochester Monroe Anti-Poverty Initiative (RMAPI), the anti-poverty program pilot area is adjacent to Rochester’s downtown district. The program will provide employment supports (e.g. daycare and transportation) to stabilize families and connect them to Rochester’s downtown success. Rochester’s downtown district, the Center City District (CCD), is experiencing dramatic residential growth. Developers partnered with government to create new living spaces within iconic buildings. Despite the 1.7 million people visiting the district annually and record investment in downtown growing high tech firms, retail and walkable amenities do not support 18 hours of activity. Foot traffic by young adults connecting downtown living and work will bridge the gap between living and work that exists in downtown Rochester, NY. Young adults are drawn to an iconic city and will create the demand for first floor retail that will give jobs and stabilize neighborhoods.

    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2019-2020 EDITIOn WASHInGTOn REDSKInS Team History With three Super Bowl championships, the Washington Redskins are one of the NFL’s most dominant teams of the past quarter century. But the organization’s glorious past dates back almost 60 years and includes five world championships overall and some of the most innovative people and ideas the game has ever known. From George Preston Marshall to Jack Kent Cooke, from Vince Lombardi to Joe Gibbs, from Sammy Baugh to John Riggins, plus the NFL’s first fight song, marching band and radio network, the Redskins can be proud of an impressive professional football legacy. George Preston Marshall was awarded the inactive Boston franchise in July 1932. He originally named the team “Braves” because it used Braves Field, home of the National League baseball team. When the team moved to Fenway Park in July 1933, the name was changed to Redskins. A bizarre situation occurred in 1936, when the Redskins won the NFL Eastern division championship but Marshall, unhappy with the fan support in Boston,moved the championship game against Green Bay to the Polo Grounds in New York. Their home field advantage taken away by their owner, the Redskins lost. Not surprisingly, the Redskins moved to Washington, D.C., for the 1937 season. Games were played in Griffith Stadium with the opener on September 16, 1937, being played under flood lights. That year,Marshall created an official marching band and fight song, both firsts in the National Football League. That season also saw the debut of “Slinging Sammy” Baugh, a quarterback from Texas Christian who literally changed the offensive posture of pro football with his forward passing in his 16-season career.
