Invasion of Privacy: Al “Buzzo” Bruno

Music is a binding force for small communities. It has the unique power to both structure local identity and provide solace to those who feel like outsiders, acting as both tradition and innovation. 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.

Iconic Laf-A-Lot reopens on Loon Lake after massive rebuild in Wayland

Everyone is smiling again at the Laf-A-Lot. An iconic Steuben County lakeside bar and restaurant reopened recently after a complete rebuild by its new owners. The Laf -A-Lot on Loon Lake is "pouring beers once again," Chuck Cavallaro posted Nov. 2 on the "What's going on around Wayland" Facebook page. The bar's signature cocktail, the Blue Whale, is presumably being mixed and poured again, too. The Laf-A-Lot had been closed since December 2025. Former owners Ed and Paula Kauffman sold the 100 Laf A Lot Road business to Chuck Cavallaro and his wife, Joanne Cavallaro, in March 2026. The couple, along with family members and even many of Cavallaros' neighbors on Loon Lake, immediately got to work restoring the existing bar and restaurant. “The next day (after the sale closed) I was at the bar with a crowbar and a hammer, and we started taking stuff apart," Chuck Cavallaro, a semi-retired medical doctor, told The Evening Tribune last spring. The old bar and restaurant was essentially stripped down to its studs and rebuilt, with the old floor and roof replaced, a new bar installed and a larger kitchen with updated equipment constructed. The Cavallaros documented nearly every step in the

Holiday decorations fill the shelves at St. Joe’s thrift annex

Margaret Bowen and Linda Palaszynski, two volunteers at St. Joe's who help run the Mammoth Sale shop, amidst a large assortment of Christmas decorations they helped get ready for holiday sales. Photo by Howard Owens. Before the children get nestled in their beds with visions of sugar plums dancing in their heads, the right Christmas atmosphere needs to be set, and the Mammoth Sale Store at St. Joe’s has a sleigh-full of atmosphere-setting decorations for sale at bargain prices. The decorations came from donations collected over the past 12 to 18 months, volunteer Margaret Bowen said. “What we have here is every kind of Christmas standing ornament that you could think of, every kind of hanging ornament, anything that someone might think is essential for Christmas,” Bowen said. “Because people have different views, and there are different kinds of things that sell at different times during the time of the sale. And it’s interesting just to watch and to learn what people actually look for.”
