Full Blown Gang Warfare in Denning Park:

SHOTS FIRED!

From the back drop of ‘Black lives Matter’ and Black on Black’ crime burst a rainbow of colors into

Denning Park, Sunday, August 23rd at 1:30 pm. While remembering the past, the day prepared for the future earning a  4th Ward Gazette ’High Five’  to the Organizers of the Whip Whop 3rd Annual Basketball Tournament given in the name of a fallen soldier Keith Murray and in memory of Calvin Troy ’88’ Dixon.

Big props goes to Devon England (King Gardens), Stacey Pettie (Rock Creek & FPG), Quaheim Graham (Parkview) , Roy Theodore (Westside/Westmoor Gardens) and their volunteers for producing a real ‘old school’ Englewood Community event featuring Free Food, Free School Supplies for the kids and great basketball for everyone. A special salute goes to all those who attended the Denning Park event for being well behaved (not that anything less was expected) and their appreciative reception of the day.

The rainbow, Westside black, Rock Creek in gray, Parkview blue and King Garden in purple came together NOT on the street to fight, but on the court to crown the King of the Hood. Shots were fired!

Petties’ crew took the first shot. Led by Donald Hennie and Zak Anderson, the Creek game out firing with long 3’s and driving layups. Westside’s Jordan Theodore and the Mofananya brothers countered with their own barrage of spin moves and dunks. Round One went to Roy Theodore’s Westside team.

1. The Creek & West side Standing Together

Davon England and the defending champs KG were all over Graham’s Parkview team led by a penetrating point guard and long range boomer Brandon Alexander. But it was Aron Dorrell and Mike ‘Kool aid’ Thompsons crew that would move on to the Championship game.

The Championship game did not disappoint. Westside’s Malik Powell and Alvin Mofananya was the power in side with Naheim ’Fish’ Carter firing from the outside. But in the end, it was KG’s Leo Jones III (MVP) who pulled his team to victory with two contested 3 pointers. Dorrell, Powell and their crew took care of the rest.

2. KG Repeat Champions

When all was said and done, it was about Love, Basketball and Community. Remembering the past and preparing for the future. Thank you Whip Whop Tournament Organizers for showing us that ‘We All Can Get Along’…...

Take A Stand

 I found the flyer to the right in my mailbox. For once, I an not the one originating the literature. It is a good feeling knowing that others are concerned with the same issues.

Those of you who have not examined your tax bills carefully should really do so. The letter that came with my tax bill described all of the things given us. None of these things do I remember us requesting.

My taxes went up significantly per quarter. My homeowners Insurance went up over 400 dollars per year and was based on the way the City assessed the value of my home. The value of my home went up significantly and we all know that I would never be able to get that high amount for it, because of the location. The services in the 4th ward are pitiful. You would not believe the hoops through which we must jump in order to get a visible sign indicating the speed limit on my street. 

Prospective Buyers will laugh at the ridiculous amount when taking into account:
The school district
The Recreation Rental of the pools Situation
The Development of every inch of Open Space in the City
The Density already encroaching upon our homes
The Selling off of Park Land
The EnglewoodONE farce
The serious neglect of my ward
The failure of our Councilman to fight for his constituents 

Municipal taxes being held flat and not increasing is misleading. If services are reduced, that means and increase on taxes for those who use the services. Increases are hidden. School Board tax increases are more up in your face.

We continue to pay to supplement the education of children from other towns while we do not even have a Pre K - 8th grade reading program (a list of books is not a Reading Program). Our home grown Englewood children will never be able to compete with children educated in other towns if we do not teach them to read. YES, TEACH THEM TO READ AND COMPREHEND.

Those of you who are keeping up with the online testing CRAZE called PARCC know that reading instruction must become stronger, otherwise our children will never pass MATH and will continue to lag behind other districts. It is going to get worse.

Yet our taxes continue to increase in both the Municipality and the School District. What will it take to make us ACT TOGETHER? Outside students already place in the highest ranking in our School District. Our children cannot compete. TOO MANY OF THE 2015 GRADUATES barely passed the HSPA. MANY OF THEM STILL HAVE NOT PASSED THE HSPA. They learned what they were taught. STOP trusting and start PUSHING BACK. Right now your taxes are doing a better job of educating children from other towns.
