Jerry Ingenito Summer Classic

Celebrating The Return OfYouth-Run Greenmarket

Local Official ThinksQueensboro Bridge

Can Stand On Its Ownby Sally Renda

On July 9th, the Sunnyside Woodside Unit of the Variety Boys and Girls Club had a kickoff celebration forthe Jerry Ingenito Summer Classic. The Boys and Girls Club resurrected the Summer Basketball tournament thatwas last held in St. Teresa’s outdoor basketball over ten years ago. “This tournament was the biggest basketballtournament in Queens in its hay-day” says Chairman Vincent Renda “The children and our community havemissed this tournament.” At the time, over 54 teams from all over New York City would come to play in thistournament and kids from 8 to 15 years old would participate in the tournament. Now a committee consistingof Gavin Nichols, Carl Caridi, Chris Larrea, Kenny Medrano, John Renda and Vincent Renda partnered with St.Teresa’s again to bring the tournament for Girls 10 and under teams and Boys 14 and under teams.

Former NYC Mayor Edward I. Koch died in Manhattan onFeb. 1, 2013, but a controversy about his name is alive and kickingin Queens these days.

Astoria-based City Council Member Peter F. Vallone Jr. recentlyannounced his plan to drop the former mayor’s name from the EdKoch Queensboro Bridge.

The politician, who is running for Queens Borough President,claimed that he admires Koch and harbors no personal ill will towardshim, but considers the crossing’s moniker to be an insult to theborough. “The city would not rename the Brooklyn Bridge, and theQueensboro Bridge should be treated equally,” he reportedly said.

Vallone informed that he will draft legislation to restore the span’sold name and rename Manhattan’s Municipal Building after Koch.

Built in 1909 to connect Manhattan’s 59th Street to Long IslandCity, the bridge was renamed in 2011 as part of a celebration ofKoch’s 86th birthday. He was thrilled at the time, referring to it as“My Bridge.”

Mayor Michael Bloomberg was a big proponent of the measure,which passed the City Council with a 38-12 vote. Vallone and localCouncil Member Jimmy Van Bramer were among those who votedagainst the plan.

On July 13th, CM VanBramer was joined byGrowNYC to celebrate the re-turn of the Greenmarket/Youth-Run Farm Stand in HuntersPoint, Long Island City.GrowNYC operated agreenmarket at this locationuntil 2010. However, becauseof poor sales, the market wasforced to close. After nearlythree years of inactivity Coun-cil Member Van Bramer suc-cessfully advocated for the re-turn of the fresh produce mar-ket to Western Queens.

The Long Island CityYouthmarket provides residentswith access to fresh, affordablefruits and vegetables. (continued on page 2)

Bill To Reform Process ForAwarding State Grants To

Nonprofit Community Groups

In an effort “to take the poli-tics out of the process and helpour deserving local groups serveseniors, children, veterans andothers in need,” NYS SenatorJoseph P. Addabbo, Jr. (D-Queens) has introduced legisla-tion (S.5709) that will enablenot-for-profit organizations toapply directly to state agenciesto obtain funds for programs theyoperate in the community.

“Under the so-called ‘memberitem’ process in the State Legisla-ture, elected officials were onceable to obtain legislative grants toaid community groups in their dis-tricts in providing services for localresidents,” said Addabbo. “Unfor-tunately, there were incidences ofabuse and corruption in the processand these legislative grants were

discontinued several years ago. Themember item process was also re-peatedly criticized for being overpoliticized. To address these issues,and help local groups throughoutthe state assist others without be-coming unnecessarily tangled up inpolitics, I am recommending thatwe significantly reform the processfor awarding state assistance to not-for-profit organizations.”

Under Addabbo’s bill, groupsseeking state assistance would ap-ply directly to state agencies forgrants, completely bypassing theState Legislature and avoiding theassociated partisan politics. Thegovernor’s office, in consultationand cooperation with the StateComptroller, would develop theapplication process, and the stateagencies would review and evalu-ate the grant requests to ensure thatthe money would be used for ap-propriate public purposes. Grantsto vetted groups would range from$5,000 to $50,000, with capitalproject grants being awarded inthe range of $100,000 to $1 mil-lion. Approved grants would needto be awarded within six months.

“While the former legislativegrant process was far from perfect,and was most certainly in need ofreform and greater scrutiny to avoidthe misuse of taxpayer dollars, itsdemise was extremely harmful formany local organizations thatwanted to continue providing ser-

vices to aid seniors, young people,low-income families, veterans, ten-ants, local businesses and manyother residents,” said Addabbo.“The loss of this support was inmany cases devastating and causedsome groups to close their doors. Ihope the new process I am propos-ing will help to ensure integrityand accountability in awardingstate grants and will provide a new,level playing field for local groupswho need funds to do what they dobest: address the needs and con-cerns of their communities.”

Addabbo noted that the legis-lation has been referred to the Sen-ate Committee on Finance for re-view. The senator plans on work-ing to promote the bill during theremainder of the year in prepara-tion of getting the bill passed in thenext legislative session. “I hope tohave the bill addressed in the con-text of next year’s negotiations onthe 2014-2015 State Budget whenfunding levels are determined forstate agency programs,” he said.“We need to make sure that ourstate government works hand-in-hand with legitimate, caring com-munity organizations to improvethe quality of life for all New York-ers, and my bill provides a frame-work for achieving this goal.”

The senator is also currentlytalking to a number of his Assem-bly colleagues to introduce the pro-posed measure in their chambers.

GrowNYC has partnered withthe LIC YMCA, who hired localneighborhood youth to run the farmstand. The youth market programis an innovative way to give West-ern Queens residents access tofresh, healthy, locally grown pro-duce while training local teens howto run a small business and becomefuture entrepreneurs.

“Western Queens residentswho visit this Long Island Citymarket now have access to a widevariety of produce at a fraction ofthe cost they might normally spendon these items elsewhere,” saidCouncil Member Van Bramer. “Byexpanding affordable food optionsfor our neighborhoods we are ableto ensure that our communities arebeing given produce that containsnutritional value at a price that

won’t break the bank. In additionto increasing access to affordablefood options we are also giving ourlocal youth jobs that will providethem the opportunity to gain in-valuable skills and training.”

The GrowNYC Youthmarketwill be open at the corner of 48thAvenue and Vernon Boulevardfrom 9:00am – 4:00pm every Sat-urday and will run through No-vember. Cooking demonstrationswill also take place throughout theday to help educate customersabout a variety of recipes using theproduce available for purchase.

“We are thrilled to open theLIC Youthmarket in this bus-tling community in Queens,” saidMarcel Van Ooyen, ExecutiveDirector, GrowNYC. “This triplebottom line program provides theneighborhood with access tofresh, affordable produce, sup-ports our regional farmers, andprovides valuable job trainingfor area youth—a win for all.Everyone at GrowNYC is deeplythankful to Council Member VanBramer for supporting this im-portant project and all he has

done to increase access to fresh,healthy and local produce in hisdistrict and beyond. We’re look-ing forward to a great season inLong Island City!”

“We are proud to be a part ofthis wonderful partnership whichis both helping provide local chil-dren with jobs and bringing nu-tritional produce to the residentsof Western Queens,” saidJonathan Imperial, Membership/Communication Director of theLong Island City YMCA. “TheLong Island City YMCA is alsoexcited to help support local farm-ers being able to sell fresh andnutritious locally grown food toour community.”

The introduction of theYouthmarket is also a part of Coun-cil Member Van Bramer’s effortsto expand healthy food options forWestern Queens residents. Lastyear, Council Member Van Bramerallocated $10,000 to GrowNYC tolaunch Queens’ first affordablefarm fresh food initiative at theQueenbridge Houses. The programwill continue this year and is ex-pected to kick-off next month.1234567890123456789012345678901212345678901234567890123456789012123456789012345678

McCaffreyDear Editor,

The late NYC Councilmemberis now officially free from thescourge of term limits. How ironicthat he was one of the first victimsof term-limits which is nothingmore - politically speaking - thanthe voters’ expression of a prefer-ence for a one night stand! Akin tofickle sweethearts we now haveprofound remorse that Walter isgone. New Yorkers however canrest in peace as undoubtedlyWalter L. McCaffrey is now per-manently embedded in the finestOuter Borough: Heaven.

WonderfulWoodside

Dear Editor,“Nothing happens in

Woodside.” Not true. It may be aquiet neighborhood, but we areproud to claim Two events uniquehere to Woodside: 1) Mother’sDay Parade. Mother’s Day, whynot? 2) A chili cook-off. Chili, areyou kidding? Some of Woodside’stop restaurants did a special chilicook-off, setting Woodside’sStreet Fair apart from other streetfairs. Copper Kettle, Sean OgsTavern, Ottomanelli, Donovan’s,plus special noodles from Sri PraPhai and our newcomer, Domini-can Mamajuana.

I am brash enough to claim thatWoodside has more outstandingrestaurants, not just good, but out-standing. The kind that after din-ing, you tell yourself you want togo back. Woodside has lots of themthat pass this test -in their ownquiet manner.

Then of course Skillman Av-enue has the best July 4th BBQ.Maria ‘the super’ outlandishlydecorated her buildings at 53 Streetin flags, stars and bunting, thentopped if off with a BBQ for thetenants. Born in Costa Rica, Mariasaid, “you have to appreciate howwonderful it is to live in the USA!”

service. I would like to add myown note of admiration. He de-voted himself to improving thequality of life for New York Cityresidents and worked very hard onbehalf of Queens, his lifelonghome. I saw firsthand the impactof his hard work. Just one of hismany professional accomplish-ments was enabling SunnysideCommunity Services to constructa new senior center. The $1.77million he allocated made it pos-sible for us to build our Center forActive Older Adults, which wascompleted in 2008. This centernow has a daily attendance of ap-proximately 200 seniors, who areable to enjoy a hot meal, stayhealthy and active, and apply forbenefits. I am honored to haveknown Walter McCaffrey and Ioffer my condolences to his friendsand loved ones.

lative accomplishments it mightbe easy to overlook the ‘one’ thatwalked the talk: McCaffrey in-sisted that public pay telephonesnot be exclusive to Manhattan butthat the NYC phone franchise ex-tend to all five Boroughs of NewYork City.

In that bold and brazen actWalter demonstrated that hedidn’t forget where he came from(Woodside, Queens), simulta-neously created more jobs forpay telephone providers (manyof which are small businesses),and brought more revenue to theCity’s coffers.

Classic McCaffrey! Why hit asingle when you can score a triple!

Oh and yes we can all still usea public pay phone no matterwhere or when we might get stuck‘...between the moon and NewYork City.’

So take that quarter in yourpocket and put it in the next publicpay phone you encounter: not inthe coin slot but in the bottom rightside return coin holder. Pay it for-ward: there’s no better way to honorWalter L. McCaffrey.Besides how ‘s ET gonna call home.
