Governor Pataki
meets Hilton students
Elementary students from the Hilton School District were invited to the Rochester International Airport in January to meet Governor George Pataki on his recent visit to introduce AirTran Airways to the area. Students presented the Governor with artwork and other mementos of their response to the September 11 tragedy. Form left are: N.Y.S. Assemblyman Joseph E. Robach; U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer; Melissa Russo; Governor Pataki; Doug Richards; Shelby Herman; Meaghan McSorley; and Brianne LaDelfa. The students told the Governor of their efforts to support rescue workers by sending donations of teddy bears through the Hilton Youth Asset Program; collecting pennies and holding a schoolwide concert for the community, Musical Salute to America.
