LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE AT COBBS CREEK

This Saturday’s “Love Where You Live” Clean Up at Cobbs Creek was a big success. The Community really showed their hearts for the neighborhood, by participating in this event. The kids helped in the biggest way, with their brooms, paint brushes and smiles that really made this a fun environment. Everyone at this site worked as one with one objective in mind “Love Where You Live”. This event also brought out special appearances with Charlie Mack, Peedie Peedie, DMC, and others that supported the cause. Love Where You Live isn’t just a slogan, but a movement that’s sweeping our neighborhoods.

SAN JUAN BAUTISTA FESTIVAL

Sunday was a great day for the San Juan Bautista Festival (John the Baptist) at Wiggins Park in Camden N.J.. This festival takes place in Camden every year.

On this afternoon, always the last Sunday in June, an extravaganza filled with Puerto Rician culture, music, marching bands, decorated floats, dancing groups from around the community come together for celebration. This is the event most Southern Americans indulge in.

CHOSEN LEAGUE BASKETBALL GAME

When it comes to street ball the Chosen League is all about game. Both teams brought their A-game. It came down to a sudden death at over time. This was the first game of the season and the players balled as if it was their last. Da Truff was the DJ on hand to liven it up with, the hot sounds of hip hop and R&B filled the court. The hood came out to see the two teams get it in. I look forward to the next games.
