With two full-time staff working with 24 public school students across three borrowed spaces, the organization’s 1999 program model featured academic support, squash instruction, and community service.

  • Grand Opening of the Sl Green Streetsquash Center
    Looking back at our First year in the new building! Summer 2009 11. 20. 2008: GRAND OPENING OF THE SL GREEN STREETSQUASH CENTER Program Director Leah Brown (far left), StreetSquash alum Davian Suckoo (far right), and Hillary Clinton pose with student ambassadors at the opening. What had once been a long-shot dream for a small non-profit was now there for all to see: 8 squash courts, 4 classrooms, a 1,000 square foot library, locker rooms and an office for 14 staff. On a memorable and emotional evening, over 400 people came to see the final product of 5 years of hard work. Almost every person in attendance had in one way or another contributed to the creation of the $9 million SL Green StreetSquash Center. The Grand Opening attracted a wide array of public officials and members of the extended StreetSquash family. In attendance were Hillary Clinton; Shaun Donovan, U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development; Scott Stringer, Manhattan Borough President; and Inez Dickens, NYC Council Member. Several StreetSquash alumni came back from college for the event. Board members brought friends and family. Supporters from Chicago, Boston and Philadelphia made the trip to see, firsthand, what a 19,000 square foot squash and education center looked like. Senator Clinton kicked off the celebration with a rousing speech about the importance of after school programs and the need for everyone to pitch in and make a difference. After having been given a tour of the facility by a few StreetSquashers, she remarked on the amazing opportunities that this Center would provide these students for years to come.

A Hat Girl’s Legacy When Marlene Crupi found Jason Downer’s top hat hidden under tree roots during the traditional “hat hunt” for Milwaukee Downer freshmen, she earned more than the distinction of being “First Hat Girl” for the Green Class of 1955. She was propelled into a leadership role that would last a lifetime. Milwaukee-Downer tradition calls for hat girls (each class had four) to exemplify the attributes of leadership in their academic and personal lives and to serve as class leaders. Marlene embraced this leadership role socially and academically. Professors such as Gladys Calbrick mentored her, while bolstering her self-confidence — providing momentum for her academic success at Downer and in graduate school. Marlene was delighted to be welcomed warmly into a supportive alumnae group who encouraged her service as an alumna. She responded by assuming a variety of volunteer roles, eventually serving as president of the Alumnae Association at the time of the consolidation in 1964.

  • Labor History Loses a Great Voice: Jim Green
    Labor History Loses a Great Voice: Jim Green By ILHS Vice President Mike Matejka Bringing history to life, particularly transporting it from the lecture hall to the streets, is no small task. Labor History lost a true leader in that effort, Dr. James Green of the University of Massachusetts, who died of leukemia on June.23. Taking labor's dramatic stories, Green was able to translate them into accessible and popular books, including his "Death in the Haymarket" and most recently, "The Devil is Here in THese Hills: West Virginia's Coal Miners and Their Battle for Freedom." This book was the foundation for the Public Television documentary last February, "The Mine Wars." In the 1970s he assisted Barbara Koepple with her award-winning documentary "Harlan County, USA" and PBS for its "The Great Depression" series. Green happily shared his time and talents with the Illinois Labor History Society, including an appearance as guest speaker at the 2010 ILHS Union Hall of Honor. He worked closely with the ILHS, its members and officers, while developing his Haymarket book. Green was a very patient and gentle soul, who moved history beyond academic halls into union halls. His 2000 book, "Taking History to Heart," told his own journey, making labor history accessible and meaningful to a general audience. His roots were in Illinois, growing up in Oak Park and then Carpentersville, where his father was a math teacher and his mother a school clerical worker. His grandparents included a railroad switchman and a clothing factory worker, people with stories he took to heart.
