Labor Day is an opportunity to recall and pay tribute to the workers across the Southern Tier and Finger Lakes regions who build, care for, educate, grow, manufacture, protect and serve and strengthen our communities in so many different ways through so many important walks of life. We are grateful for your dedication, perseverance and excellence.

My very best wishes to all of the residents and families across the Southern Tier and Finger Lakes regions for a safe and enjoyable Labor Day celebration!

I also hope that we take this opportunity to recall and pay tribute to all of the workers across the Southern Tier and Finger Lakes regions who day after day, year after year, generation after generation, build, care for, educate, grow, manufacture, protect and serve and strengthen our communities in so many different ways through so many important walks of life.  We are grateful for your dedication, perseverance and excellence.
