Locking up VIPs Friday at the old jail The Wayne County Historical Society Museum is ready to officially lock up Wayne County VIPs for the second year in a row for the Lock Up & Jail em fundraiser. The Lock Up & Jail 'em takes place April 18, when detainees will be picked up from their place of business or home at about 3:30 and have three hours to raise $500 each for the Museum of Wayne County History. Last year our detainees helped raise almost $12,000. Again this year the detainees come from various towns in the county, some are new and some returning from last year. Bob Schick and C.J. Britt from The Lyons National Bank will be rolling up their sleeves and making calls from the jail. Some of the returning detainees are Williamson Supervisor James Hoffman, Steve Felker from Meade Maloy Agency in Clyde, Rus Jeffrey from WACK Radio in Newark and Luke Dobbins from Dobbins Painting and Contracting in Lyons. New detainees include Barb Viola from Community Bank, Mike James from Jamko Industrial Services in Newark and Lyons, Gene Bavis from Bavis Associates from Walworth, Terry Vanstean from the Lyons Village Board and Scott Simmons from EDS in Rochester among others. Larry Ann Evans said, 'We will wine and dine the detainees and the massage room will be open again when the phone calls become stressful.' Krista Ingerick from the Springs of Clifton will be sending a message therapist and Annette Lockner from Healing Hands Message Therapy is returning. 'We've had lots of luck with donations,' said Evans. 'Everyone who donated last year is on board again this year, like BJs in Geneva, Wegmans and the P&C in Newark, Loson's in Lyons and Heluva Good Cheese in Sodus. Various liquor stores also donated wine for the Lock Up & Jail em, such as Lyons Liquor Store, Hansel's Liquor in Palmyra, Cedar Ridge in Macedon and Wolcott Liquor and Wine.' The museum of County History is located at 21 Butternut Street, Lyons. For more information call 946.4943 or check the website, Copyright
