Hall Auditorium. They arrange weekly celebrations of the sacrament of Holy Communion in Crouse Memorial Chapel; a Sunday School program; a youth ministry program; and the weekday “Religion and Life Forum,” which offers persons an opportunity for challenging presentations and serious study of the Bible, theology, philosophy and current issues. They also have an outreach subcommittee that includes the annual CROP walk. The Bay View Association and The United Methodist Church share the mutual and complemen - tary objective of serving people through Christian ministry. As such, Bay View is proud to be a truly “church related” institution.

  • Palmer Woods Centennial Gala
    CELEBRATE! PALMER WOODS CENTENNIAL GALA Detroit Golf Club Saturday, September 19, 2015 Palmer Woods Centennial Logos s part of the Palmer Woods 100-Year Celebration, the Palmer Woods Centennial Committee sponsored a design competition to create a new visual logo for the Aneighborhood’s Centennial year. Artists were invited to submit their vision for a Centennial logo. The following artists submitted the winning logos: PHIL LEWIS – 1st Place Winner The winning logo was conceived by Phil Lewis, a lifelong Detroiter, Cass Tech graduate and recipient of a BFA from the Center for Creative Studies majoring in Illustration. “My mother used to say I was born with a paintbrush in my hand. Drawing was an escape for me,” remarks Phil. His natural ability was honed at Cass Tech under the tutelage of well known teachers such as Dr. Cledie Taylor, Marian Stephens and Irving Berg. Entering the contest to design a logo in celebration of the Palmer Woods Centennial was an easy decision for Phil. He loves the city of Detroit and considers Palmer Woods one of Detroit’s jewels. Even though he does not live in the neighborhood, he is good friends with residents and very aware of the community. Phil’s logo design was inspired by the beauty, history and character of the homes. Consequently, his logo effectively captures the spirit of our strong and beautiful community. Currently Phil is the owner of Phil Lewis Studio and a Digital Content Artist for MRM McCann Advertising. As the winning artist for the neighborhood contest, Phil’s logo is featured on banners that are be placed on light posts within and along the perimeter of the neighborhood.

  • Kathy Kosins – to the Ladies of Cool – Resonance Records
    Kathy Kosins – to the Ladies of Cool – Resonance Records Out of the old cool into the new cool. Published on April 20, 2012 Kathy Kosins – to the Ladies of Cool – Resonance Records **** (Kathy Kosins – vocals; Tamir Hendelman – piano; Kevin Axt – bass 1, 5, 7, 8, 10; Paul Keller – bass 2, 3, 4, 6, 9; Graham Dechter – guitar; Bob Leatherbarrow – drums, vibes; Steve Wilkerson – woodwinds; Gilbert Castellanos – trumpet, flugelhorn) If you have not heard of vocalist Kathy Kosins before that’s too bad, because she is the real deal. While her recording output to date is not extensive, this offering to the Ladies of Cool, should bring her well-deserved additional recognition. The four “Ladies of Cool” in question are Anita O’Day, June Christie, Chris Connor and Julie London. Now while the first three had legitimate vocal pedigrees which featured clipped vibrato -less phrasing, each having spent time in the Stan Kenton musical organization where they brought about the vocal style of the band, Julie London had a small whispery voice with minimum range and was better known for her provocative album covers. A more appropriate but less well-known choice might have been Jeri Southern, who was a legitimate cool-style vocalist. That small quibble aside, Kosins treats us to her unique interpretation of songs associated with the singers in question, but not those tunes readily recognizable such as “Let Me Off Uptown”, “Something Cool”, “All About Ronnie” and “Cry Me a River,” although it might have been intriguing to hear Kosins take on these classics. With clear diction and innate sense of swing, the opening track “Learnin’ The Blues” veers away from London’s languid version to a more straight ahead no- nonsense take.
