Last month, the council authorized the transfer of prop- erty to the club that intends to renovate the existing, pri- vately owned Pines Community Center at 107 Johnson St. The town will provide two adjacent tracts that total about 15,000 square feet. Parrish, a former professor at N.C. Central who is also known for his work with the Pines Community Center, said he is proud of their accomplishments over the years, in- cluding an affordable housing program, after school and summer youth programs, and making the neighborhood a conservation district to protect it from gentrification. “We looked at the study done by Columbia University years ago, and it basically said that communities that have Boys and Girls Clubs do better by their children in terms of their education, their recreation, their civic and social upbring- ing than the communities that lack such clubs,” he said. “And we learned, of course, that the majority of counties in this state don’t have a Boys and Girls Club, and among those counties was Orange County.

  • 2Nd Name to Honor Veterans
    16th Annual Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Detroit Race for the Cure June 16 www.karmanos.org/detroitraceforthecure 2nd name to honor veterans BYDARRELLCLEM STAFF.WRITER A one-mile stretch of Central City Parkway will have a sec­ ond, patriotic name in time for Memorial Day. The portion of the parkway between Ford and Warren roads will be dedicated Sunday as Veterans Memorial Parkway. A formal ceremony will occur on the front lawn of Westland City Hall after a Memorial Day weekend parade arrives there. The parade, sponsored by the Wayne-Westland Veterans Parade Council, will start at 1 p.m. Sunday at the Wayne-Ford Civic League on Wayne south of Ford. The parade will move north on Wayne to Ford, then west to*, City Hall for the unveiling of a Veterans Memorial Parkway sign. "It's important to not only honor all the veterans from all the wars, but the country is also at war now," said Westland City Councilman Michael Kehrer. "This will be a memorial to all veterans." Kehrer proposed the dual naming of Central City Parkway to his council colleagues, who approved the measure Monday. He was approached by a committee that last summer handled a visit to Westland by The Moving Wall, a replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C. The parkway will not be renamed. Rather, it will have two PHOTOS BY TOM HAWLEYI STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER names. No one will have a change of address as a result.
