Pencils Down continues road to success

No Comments on Pencils Down continues road to success

Climbing up the ladder of success for her third straight start, Pencils Down (Royalty For Life) was able to easily handle a field of six rivals in capturing the $17,000 feature trot at Pocono Downs Saturday (Oct. 14) afternoon.

Competing over a sloppy, rain-soaked track with a two-second allowance by the Judges in the 8th race main event, it was a battle for control of the lead from the start.

Chake (Braxten Boyd) was first on the lead off the starting gate but was challenged immediately by the opening quarter mile by Ap Hall Of Trix (John Kakaley), followed second-over by Pencils Downs and driver George Napolitano, Jr.

Ap Hall Of Trix cleared to the lead after a :28.2 first quarter and then Pencils Down passed her by to take command before the half mile marker in :57.4. Going to the half mile, Chake came first-over to challenge, but broke stride at the three-quarters in 1:27.2.

From there Pencils Downs held the field at bay and went on to win by two and one-quarter lengths in 1:56.4. Ap Hall Of Trix was second with Slave Labour (Marcus Miller) third.

PENCILS DOWNS REPLAY

It was the third straight win and fifth victory of the season for Pencils Downs. The four-year-old mare is trained by Jeff Cullipher for Pollack Racing, LLC of Venetia, PA and she paid $2.40 to win as the wagering favorite.

How one Detroit community plans to change its neighborhood with ShotStoppers funding

No Comments on How one Detroit community plans to change its neighborhood with ShotStoppers funding

(CBS DETROIT) – The city of Detroit’s ShotStoppers program gave hundreds of thousands of dollars to several organizations in the city with the goal of reducing crime in their neighborhood.

We caught up with one of the groups that is benefiting from the funds to talk about their plans for their community.

Our Ray Strickland went to Detroit’s east side and spent the day with the president of the Mohican Regent Association, who spoke about the work they’re doing to help make their community better.

“When I first moved into this neighborhood, neighbors were working with one another, neighbors communicated with one another,” said George Preston.

It’s like taking a trip down memory lane for George Preston.

As we drove around the Mohican Regent Neighborhood, Preston was reminded of how much his community has changed.

“We lost that community spirit,” he said.

Mohican Regent is home to one of the deadliest areas by zip code in Detroit: 48205. Preston describes the area as one filled with hard-working families who simply want to see their community thrive.

But he admits crime, specifically gang activity, can take a toll on any community’s spirit.

“Older people began to move out of the neighborhood because of some crimes in the neighborhood. The perception of crimes in the neighborhood,” Preston said.

Resilient is another way Preston would describe the Mohican Regent.

He and members of the community are determined to be a part of the change they want to see. His neighborhood group has taken money out of their own pockets to uplift the community in many ways.

And now, because of Detroit’s ShotStoppers program, they can give back even more.

“It’s going to be adult education here. We are going to do tutoring, the DIY types of things, we are going to have an expert in various fields carpentry, plumbing, and we are going to…

16-seed Lenape stuns top seed No. 7 St. Augustine

No Comments on 16-seed Lenape stuns top seed No. 7 St. Augustine

Senior Saahil Nagar scored the only goal of the game, in the second half, as the 16th seed in the South Jersey Boys Soccer Coaches Cup, stunned previously unbeaten St. Augustine, 1-0 in Richland. The Hermits are the top seed in the tournament and ranked No. 7 in the NJ.com Top 20.

Nagar has scored just four goals on the season but his latest marked the second time in four days that he scored the only goal (against Moorestown) in a Lenape win. Lenape advances to a quarterfinal road game against the winner of Saturday’s game between Cedar Creek and West Deptford.

Lenape (10-4-1 overall) matched its most wins in a season since 2018 and is making its first appearance in the Coaches Cup since 2014 and first win since 2012. Evan Gonzalez earned the shutout for Lenape.

St. Augustine opened the season with 13 wins, outscoring its opponents, 47-4. The Hermits hadn’t allowed a goal since Sept. 28, a span of five games.

13-Delsea 1, 4-Rancocas Valley 1

(Delsea advances in PKs 4-3)

Junior Gavin Reissek scored a second-half goal to force extra time and Delsea prevailed 4-3 in a penalty-kick shootout in Eastampton to advance to a quarterfinal next week. Upset-minded Delsea will travel meet to the winner of Saturday’s Palmyra-Clearview first-round game.

Delsea (11-2-1) needed seven rounds of PKs to secure the win.

Rancocas Valley fell to 10-3-2 on the season.

11-Ocean City 3, 6-Eastern 1

Ocean City continued the trend of lower seeds prevailing in first-round action with a pair of second-half goals to break a 1-all halftime deadlock in Voorhees. The Red Raiders (10-3) will meet the winner of Saturday’s Kingsway-Shawnee opening-round game.

David Obando scored on a feed by Demi Garita to provide Eastern’s part of the first-half tie. The Vikings are 10-4-1.

7-Cherry Hill West 1, 10-Haddon Heights 0

No Comments on Can You Spell This Lake’s Name In One Shot? 10/10 Challenge!

It’s a difficult name to pronounce. You must have never heard anything like this before. So, allow us to introduce you to a 45-letter name location that will astound you.

What is actually the name of the lake?

The lake is called Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg. You may be wondering if there is a technical problem or if I simply fell asleep on my keyboard, but there isn’t. The 45-letter name of one of the most beautiful lakes there is.

Where is the lake?

Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg in the town of Webster, Massachusetts, has the longest name of any geographic feature in all of the United States with 45 letters comprising 14 syllables pic.twitter.com/uunE6C00hw

The lake, located in Webster, Massachusetts, often known as Webster Lake to locals, has long drawn attention for being the longest name among geographic features in the United States, with 14 syllables.

When was the lake formed?

The lake, formed by glaciers thousands of years ago, is three miles long and is made up of three ponds connected by connecting channels. Furthermore, Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg is Massachusetts’ third-biggest freshwater body of water, with eight islands, two of which are quite small and unsuitable for settlement.

Why is the lake named so?

The name derived from the Nipmuc language, which is the native language of the region. The name means “You fish on your side, I fish on my side, nobody fishes in the middle.” This is thought to be a reference to a fishing agreement between the Nipmuc people and the Algonquian… pic.twitter.com/tNgZCNT9ug

‘We are still here’: Indigenous Peoples’ Day celebrated

No Comments on ‘We are still here’: Indigenous Peoples’ Day celebrated

Great Barrington — The Alliance for a Viable Future held its annual Indigenous Peoples’ Day celebrations on Friday, October 6, at the Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center, and Monday, October 9, at Giggle Park. The holiday honors Native American peoples and their cultures and takes place on the second Monday in October, on the Columbus Day federal holiday.

Great Barrington adopted the holiday in 2019, while President Joseph Biden issued a presidential proclamation commemorating the holiday in 2021. However, Massachusetts does not officially recognize Indigenous Peoples’ Day, despite bills being introduced for the past three years in the state’s legislature. The latest bill was introduced in February and a public hearing was held on the bill by a joint committee of the State House and Senate in late September.

“To me, these events are all about unity, healing, and people coming together,” Shawn Stevens, a member of the Stockbridge-Munsee Band of Mohican Indians told The Berkshire Edge. Stevens has participated in several of the Indigenous Peoples’ Day celebrations organized by The Alliance for a Viable Future. “This is a reminder to all of our people, not just people who are Native American, that we all have indigenous roots and we have to have that mindset to protect Mother Earth and make a better place for the next generations and beyond,” Stevens said. “What do I think people can learn from Indigenous Peoples’ Day? I think they should learn that my people, the Mohican people, are still here. We are all still alive. Being indigenous is more of a mindset. We all come from indigenous cultures that…
