Rochester, NY, May 19, 2011:  Normally when Michael Burger, a Partner with Davidson Fink LLP, goes to work, he heads inside the First Federal Building in downtown Rochester, NY.  But on Friday, May 20, Mr. Burger rappelled down the side of the First Federal Building -- all twenty-one stories of it -- as part of the Toss Your Boss fundraiser benefitting urban scouting programs.

This is the second year the Seneca Waterways Council have held the fundraiser, in which participants who donate $1000 or more can rappel 309 feet from the roof of the First Federal Building.  Proceeds from the event go to support the Urban Scouting program of the Seneca Waterways Council, including the 40 afterschool programs run in Rochester schools.  This year, Mr. Burger's staff, coworkers and friends raised enough money to "toss their boss" over the edge of the building.
