Update on Juniper Valley Park and it’s not good news.
Glad the kids were disciplined that did the vandalism. Unfortunate that the parks department did a cheap job on the running track. How can you tell a church not to have a gathering. Doesn't that violate 1st amendment rights?
well lawless new york, this is what people voted for
I’m curious, when did a teacher at 128 ID these kids. When was that incident?
We need to stop blaming COVID and politics for the reason that these incidents are occurring. It all goes back to Parenting or Lack there of. Parents have completely checked out. There is no respect or accountability. I could go on & on - but these destructive behaviors all lead back to home. Children are given everything with out earning it and there are no consequences when rules are not followed. 🙁 Those teens should be tasked with repairing and cleaning up the park
Are they ever going to redo or re-pave the basketball courts on the the 80th street side of the park..nothing but gravel .. kids getting hurt everyday..parks department white shirt said it’s up to the councilman..
We are proud to have participated in patrolman Joseph Jockel‘s memorial service and street co-naming.
