Juneteenth Attendees Encouraged To ‘Speak Out’ Against Injustice

Juneteenth Attendees Told

‘Speak Out’ Against Injustice

Michelle Osterhoudt, former Oneonta City teacher and Common Council member, told the crowd gathered in Neahwa Park that as recently as two weeks ago, she was called a racial slur while out in the city with her daughter. “When you see an act of hatred, you need to speak out,” she said. “Because when you don’t, you allow that injustice to happen.” Osterhoudt was on hand to speak as part of the Juneteenth celebration, which brought art, dance, music and speakers to the park to celebrate the anniversary of the final emancipation of slaves in Galveston, Texas, two and a half years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation in 1863.

A Possibility in Neahwa

Here’s a photo from Wikipedia of a typical dog park.

ONEONTA – It’s not just dogs that will benefit from the proposed Oneonta dog park.

“There are a lot of dog lovers in Oneonta,” said Common Council member Michele Frazier, First Ward. “People who love dogs meet each other at dog parks, it fosters community.”

The dog park, which has been proposed several times over the past few years, was once again brought to the table during the city’s Operations, Planning and Evaluations Committee meeting on Monday, Aug. 26.

All Welcome For Lunch

At Neahwa Park Pavilion

Volunteer Christy Houck makes up a tray of lunch at the Summer Food Service program as she gets a carton of milk from her son Josh, also a volunteer. The annual free lunch program, sponsored by Catholic Charities in partnership with the First United Presbyterian Church, offers a sandwich, fruit, vegetables and milk from Noon – 1 p.m. Monday – Friday, through Aug. 23 in the large pavilion at Neahwa Park. Now in it’s sixth year, the Summer Food Program has expanded to offer meals to children and their families, as well as the homeless, and has added programs from Huntington Library and Cornell Cooperative Extension. In addition, they are running buses to three of Oneonta’s mobile home parks to assist residents in accessing the meal program.  (Ian Austin/AllOTSEGO.com)
