By Howard B. Owens

There was music, food and fashion Saturday at the Genesee County Airport for the first-ever Wheels and Heels fundraiser sponsored by the YWCA.

While models milled through the crowd in gorgeous gowns, attendees could stroll through an event filled with not only jewelry, but also a variety of transportation on wheels, from airplanes to police cruisers to classic automobiles.

The event raised money to help the YWCA expand its services for children who are sometimes the forgotten victims of domestic violence.

The programs will help children deal with the emotional, psychological and relational challenges that come with being in homes where domestic violence takes place.
