Lehmann of TAYLOR goes over the edge for Urban Scouting; 6th Annual "21 Stories For Scouts" rappelling event

As part of the 6th Annual Seneca Waterways Council "21 Stories For Scouts" rappelling event on May 15, Fred Lehmann (dressed as Captain America) accepted the challenge to defy gravity by rappelling 21 stories, or 309 ft., down the First Federal Plaza in the downtown to support the Urban Scouting program of the Seneca Waterways Council. "I was honored to flex my muscles and be a part of this unique event to build awareness for the Urban Scouting program in Rochester," said TAYLOR project manager Lehmann. "This superhero feat could not have been accomplished without TAYLOR's many friends and associates who stepped forward to help meet my fundraising goal for this terrific local organization." More than 80 local business leaders and scout supporters took advantage of this unique fundraising event. Through company contributions and online donations, 100% of monies raised went directly to support Urban Scouting programs. Including more than 40 after-school programs run in the city of Rochester, and three summer camps, contributions will offer more than 12,000 urban youth who desperately want and need Scouting the opportunity to fully participate. For more information on the event, to donate, or learn how you can rappel one of Rochester's Iconic Skyscrapers next year, please visit www.21StoriesForScouts.org.

The death of the generic offering memorandum: What buyers expect in 2025 - by Kimberly Zar Bloorian

There was a time when an offering memorandum (OM) was pretty bare bones, some photos, a few bullet points on income, and a rent roll thrown in at the back. That used to get the job done. Not anymore. In 2025, buyers are sharper, faster, and more selective. They’re looking
