Greenwich Police Ride in Tri-State Trek

Beginning tomorrow July 24, a Greenwich Police Team made up of
current Police Officers and a few of their friends will be riding from
Boston, Massachusetts to White Plains, New York as part of the Tri-State
Trek (Tristatetrek.com) which is a bicycle ride to raise money for ALS
research.

ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease) is a progressive disease that attacks the motor
neurons in the brain and spinal cord, which, in turn, affect the movement of
voluntary muscles. The disorder causes muscle weakness that can alter
speech, cause difficulty breathing and decrease movement in the arms and
legs. The majority of patients die from respiratory failure within 5 years of
the onset of symptoms. All of the money from the race goes to the ALS
Therapy Development Institute in Boston Mass. to fund their research.

The Greenwich Police team is riding in honor of Sergeant Roger
Petrone, an active Greenwich Police Sergeant, who has been diagnosed with
ALS himself. “I hope they find a cure because a lot of people’s lives are
counting on it,” says Sgt Petrone.

The ride passes through the northern part of Greenwich on Sunday July
26, 2009 and the steep hill on John Street is considered a challenge for the
riders. Supporters and cheerleaders will line the road to cheer and support
the riders and the cause. Greenwich Police will close John Street from

11am to 3 pm between Round Hill Road and Riversville Road. The
Greenwich Audubon Center on the corner of John Street and Riversville
Road will be a rest stop for the riders. The riders will gather there together
and then push off as a group to the finish line in White Plains, New York.
Donations can be made directly to the ALS TDI at the Audubon Center on
Sunday July 26 or sent directly to the research center at
http://www.tristatetrek.com/ Cowbells to ring and cheer on the riders will be
available at the rest stop for $5 on Sunday.

BEAR CATS JAZZ BAND TO PERFORM
PARKS AND RECREATION WEDNESDAY NIGHT CONCERT SERIES

The Department of Parks and Recreation announces that the Bear Cats Jazz Band will be performing at Roger Sherman Baldwin Park on Wednesday, August 5 from 7:30 pm to 9:00 pm.
Dick Van Gorder and Joe Hanlon for the purpose of preserving and promulgating one of America’s national treasures – traditional jazz, formed the Bear Cats in 1977. They perform for jazz societies and festivals in CT, DE, NY, NJ, PA, VA and Florida, and made their West Coast debut last August at Big Bear Lake in California.

The members of The Bear Cats are devoted and skilled musicians with a style firmly rooted in the New Orleans tradition and a flair also for the variations known as Chicago and West Coast.

The band appeals to a wide variety of audiences by easily migrating from a strict 1920s Louis Armstrong style with clarinet, tuba and banjo to a driving Eddie Condonesque, four-beater rouser with guitar and string bass. For dancing, the repertoire also reaches to Glen Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Ellington and Basie.

Bring the family, a picnic dinner and come join us for some wonderful Jazz music under the stars.

Other upcoming Parks and Recreation Wednesday night concerts are: In Harmony singing 50’s and 60’s Do Wop Music on August 12, and Sister Funk playing your favorite Rock, Pop, on August 19.

The group consisting of Dee Heavrin, Robin Miller, Scott Poarch, Lenny Seiter, Adrienne Lisko, and Peter Randazzo have always found great joy in singing such classics as “At the Hop” “Be My Baby”, “I Wonder Why”, and “Duke of Earl”.

While performing together for many years the group has worked with such legendary Doo-Wop acts as Johnny Maestro & The Brookly Bridge. The Drifters, The Platters, and The Dimensions.

They were also called to perform at The White House for President Bill Clinton, and at the home of Terry Stewart, CEO of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1998. They have also performed an acappella arrangement of The Star Spangle Banner to a sold out crowd at Shea Stadium in 1999.

Hi

The summer is almost over and there is still time to help Fresh Air Fund children experience the summer they deserve. We are in need of host families for the month of August and I would like to ask for your help getting the word out on Greenwich Roundup.

Host families are volunteers who open their hearts and home to a child from the city to give them a Fresh Air experience that can change lives. Thank you so much.

Today's Quotes:

"An informed citizenry is the bulwark of democracy."- Thomas Jefferson

"There is in the nature of government an impatience of control that disposes those invested with power to look with an evil eye upon all external attempts to restrain or direct its operations. This has its origin in the love of power." - Alexander Hamilton - Federalist Paper No.15, 1787.

Lincoln Millstein blogs about Sunday's candidate statements on the Greenwich Time editorial page

Greenwich BOE candidates share good ideas and vision - what a nice change, getting to know who is running our school board

July 20, 2009 at 7:28 pm by Lincoln Millstein

If you ever wanted an example of why we need our school board elections to be more transparent, get ahold of Sunday’s Greenwich Time and the candidates’ position statements (except for Randall Smith who declined). I had feared for the worst - puff and self promotion - but was pleasantly surprised by the content, passion and even some controversial positions from the candidates. Mostly, I was impressed by how different they were.

Consider this remark from Republican Kim Blank: “We have had a lot of turnover in leadership … Our new superintendent has already retired once … I think the board should work closely with Superintendent Freund with an eye to grooming a successor.” Wow, with one stroke of the pen (keyboard), Blank marginalized the new guy and began looking past him. You would never get this kind of candor from incumbents.

In fact the two incumbents did not acknowledge a single problem the last four years. Words like “Ham Ave” have been expunged from their vocabulary - just like the Chinese government redacting the Cultural Revolution out of all history books. Everything is hunk dory. Of the two, Republican Steve Anderson stood out the most with his effervescent view of revisionist history.....

Comment:

Lincoln, Why should online Greenwich Time readers have to digging through their neighbors blue recycling bins to read the school board the candidates’ position statements?

However, we give Lincoln two thumbs up for telling it like it is......

....We didn’t hear many divergent views from this board as they proceeded to give Betty Sternberg almost $1 million of taxpayers’ money and taking our schools nowhere. Moriarty has some blood on her hands like or not....

...By far the biggest surprise was Republican Peter Sherr...Who is this guy? And how did he get on the ticket in a party that says “all of our constituents go to private schools so let’s not waste too much on the kids in Byram who wouldn’t vote for a GOP candidate anyway.” You go Peter. You the man!....

....By far the most qualified candidate of the bunch is Nancy Kail, whose resume is unbelievably suited to be a board member for this community. Founding member of the Greenwich Alliance, Riverside PTA president, mother of three public school students in Greenwich, member of Secondary School Reform Committee, and on and on. Unbelievable to me that she was not nominated by the Dems...

UPDATE #2

Greenwich Board of Ed candidates offer experience, new ideas

....Incumbent Steve Anderson and newcomer Peter Sherr received the recommendation of party leaders earlier this month .....

While favored to win the Republican seats if endorsed, however, the candidates' success is not guaranteed.

The town's political parties usually endorse the recommended candidate, but there have been exceptions.

A write-in candidate also could complicate matters for Anderson and Sherr, who would then have to campaign for the school board seats.....

MORE BEHIND THE SCENCES COVERAGE:

Republican hopeful plans to mount write-in challenge

With or without her party's endorsement, Republican school board candidate Theresa Stanton said voters haven't heard the last of her.

The 47-year-old Cos Cob mother was one of three office-seekers passed up earlier this month by Republican leaders for a recommendation to run on the GOP ticket for the Board of Education.

However, while the other two hopefuls plan to bow out if they fail to get the Republican Town Committee's endorsement Wednesday, Stanton said she'll keep running as a petition candidate.

As a certified teacher, the PTA member said she has a better grasp on education policy and curriculum issues than both the candidates and some current board members......
