Grants may be from any number of places. They could be private or state or federal. The key words are “They don’t have to be paid back.” If it is money that has to be paid back it is a loan not a grant.
Deerslayer Bowmans Association would like to publicly thank Oswego City/County Youth Bureau and NYS Office of Child & Family Services for the grant provided to us to offer our 2015 Summer Youth Archery Program to 14 Oswego County youth for free.
I would like to thank all the voters who came out on Thursday, September 10, for the Republican Primary for legislator in District 25. I knew the turnout would be difficult as there has never been a primary in New York State on a Thursday.
The Oswego City Council has the important task this week of deciding what offer to except on the sale of the Cahill/Coleman building. This venerable old circa 1828 stone structure on the river at the foot of West Seneca Street has been in foreclosure and litigation since 2010, while it sadly deteriorates. I hope they will only consider an offer that will preserve the building. It will be good for the whole community.
The Oswego City Police Department has conducted checkpoints along various locations of Route 104 on Aug 23, 28, 29, 30 and September 6. The reason given for these checkpoints is to look for registration and seatbelt violations. Checkpoints that are deemed constitutional in the United States consist of DUI checkpoints (in 39 states, NY included), border crossing checkpoints, and TSA checkpoints. Any other type of police checkpoint, except in extreme circumstances, is an unconstitutional tactic used to ensure compliance with a given law.
Good morning Chief Rossi, My name is Jeff Wallace. I am a 63 year old resident in the Town of Oswego. I have spent many years in the profession of law enforcement and 26 years of military service. This message is not to criticize in any way your department. Please understand that. As you know traffic stops are inherently dangerous for police officers, many of whom patrol and conduct stops alone.
I extend my sincerest thank you to everyone that graciously supported our annual Stuff-A-Bus campaign. Thanks to the generosity of so many caring community members, organizations and businesses 1,786 students received many of the supplies they need to begin the school year. From pencils and notebooks to backpacks and thumb drives, volunteers along with members of the Oswego County Teachers Association (OCTA), distributed more than 15,600 school supplies to students throughout Oswego County.
I have been a Girl Scout for 11 years and have had the most fun and have created some of the best memories of my life through scouting. I have had more opportunities as a Girl Scout than I would ever have imagined. I have camped a lot, earned badges and sold delicious Girl Scout Cookies, of course, but Girl Scouts is so much more than those activities.
I grew up in the city of Fulton but since have moved away. I have always kept in touch through personal contacts or media. Recently, I was informed of a letter in the media about a lifelong friend and public servant, Legislator Frank Castiglia Jr. After reading the letter myself I felt a need to express my displeasure with a letter written by a Legislator Steve Walpole.
Legislator Weatherup makes a statement that I was wrong in my letter about the Fulton sales tax allotment discussion meeting with the Finance and Personnel Committee. In a past committee meeting Legislator Weatherup has said, “Why do we have to keep talking about something three or four times.” Again, I will say that having a degree in education I learned that repeating a lesson over and over again is the best way to ensure even the most challenging learner will finally understand the lesson.
