On Sunday, September 22, from 11—2, The Throggs Neck BID will co-sponsor, with the Family Worship Center, the Annual Health Fair at the Derosa O’Boyle Triangle. (3031 Cross Bronx Expressway.) Come for free health screenings and information, free lunch and groceries, school supplies, fun activities for children, and more.
The Throggs Neck BID has made the beautification of our community a priority. Planting new trees and installing decorative tree guards were among our earliest accomplishments. We have also taken significant steps to add decorative flowers in tree pits. This spring, they are looking better than ever! The best is yet to come, as we plan to provide beautiful planters that do double duty as safety devices that prevent car crashes from landing up on sidewalks.
Throggs Neck BID Executive Director Bob Jaen was honored at the 45th Precinct Community Council annual breakfast on My 23. Bob is in the center, along with Mrs. Jaen, Council Member Kristy Marmorato (in red) Deputy Inspector Johnny A. Orellana, and BID Board of Directors and volunteers.
May 2 was an extraordinary day in our community! The Throggs Neck BID announced, at a major event held at the 45 Precinct, that the anti-crime cameras we fought for are now up and running, paid for with state funds procured by Assembly Member Benedetto. Council Member Kristy Marmorato, State Senator Fernandez, and former Assembly Member Stephen Kaufman joined Bid Executive Director Bob Jaen and the head of the 45 Precinct, Deputy Inspector Johnny A. Orellana in making the long-awaited announcement.
