Geneseo’s own Buzzo Music is a staple of Main Street. It has served as the heart of Geneseo’s music culture for 56 years, all thanks to its co-founder, Al “Buzzo” Bruno.

Canandaigua dog spa rebrands as Barc Dog Spa & Boutique | Exclusive

As far as new names go for a doggie spa, Barc Dog Spa & Boutique works for Maddyn DeSain. DeSain, who cleans the bays at the business, likes the name change from Bad Dog Boutique for a pretty good reason. "It's more 'dog' I feel like," DeSain said Thursday at a ribbon-cutting announcing the official rebrand of the former Bad Dog Boutique at 84 S. Main St., Canandaigua. Barc, as in bark — you know, what dogs do. But the "arc" part of the rebrand is also an important aspect of the change for getting the word out of what The Arc of Ontario does, said Michelle Jungermannn, chief operating officer of The Arc Ontario's enterprise operations. Barc Dog Spa & Boutique is one of the agency's social enterprises, which includes downtown neighbor North Star Coffee, Spot On Cleaning, FLX Premier Bottling and Finger Lakes Bus Service. These businesses help individuals of all abilities develop job skills, earn wages, and participate in their communities, which is "still at the heart of what we do," Jungermann said. And besides, there are no real "bad" dogs, anyway, Jungermann said. Whatever the name is, retail assistant Cheyenne Daughtery can't wait to go to

Popular Finger Lakes brewery marks 10 years with plans to expand | Exclusive

Ten years after opening Peacemaker Brewing Co. in Canandaigua, owner Todd Reardon still gets a big thrill when a longtime customer or someone new remarks on how much they like one of Peacemaker's craft brews. Reardon, who was the original brewer but now concentrates on running the operation, still helps with brewing and collaborates on recipes. Beer remains a big part of the business. "That's where the satisfaction comes from; people liking our beer," Reardon said. In the decade since opening on Veterans Day in 2016, reardon, a veteran, has moved Peacemaker from a tiny space on Pleasant Street to its current home on Coach Street, endured a COVID-19 pandemic that almost spelled the end of the business, and grew to be a popular Canandaigua and Finger Lakes destination spot — with a plan to expand. Rise of the Peacemaker in Canandaigua Back when Reardon was home brewing in Syracuse, his favorite band, Roger Clyne & the Peacemakers — the inspiration for the brewery name and the band's lyrics or song titles are often used in Reardon's beer names — played a gig at his home. Reardon offered the band a cooler of his home brews, which they liked and

New Barnes & Noble opens in Henrietta to eager shoppers | Exclusive

HENRIETTA — Dozens of people of all ages waited in line for the grand opening of the new Barnes & Noble bookstore in Henrietta on Nov. 11, excited for a chance to see the books, games, collectibles and more. Amy Vaisey came with her kids, since school was closed for Veterans Day, and called the first look at the store — and arriving early enough to wait in line — a fun adventure. She planned to check out some new releases, while her kids were excited to check out the Lego selection. “I am a book lover, so the opportunity to get into a new Barnes & Noble seems super exciting — to see the new layout and what it’s going to look like inside,” said Vaisey, who lives in Brighton. The new location at Market Square Plaza is the sixth in the Rochester region, joining Greece, Pittsford, Webster and Victor — plus a combined location at College Town. The new location is in the former Party City between Talbots and Famous Footwear. At 18,000 square feet, the store has a similar layout to the Barnes & Noble at Eastview Mall but is larger. For Vaisey, trips to Henrietta to
