Local Teens Help Make Prom Dreams a Reality:

Willow Grove Park’s Style Squad Collects More Than 25 Prom Dresses The dresses were donated to Fairy Godmothers, a local nonprofit that makes the donations available at a low cost for less fortunate teens.

WILLOW GROVE, PA – May 25, 2010 – Dresses, purses, shoes and dates. It’s prom season for area high school students, and as the excitement builds, so does the cost. Although the ladies are on their own to find dates, Willow Grove Park’s Style Squad made this prom season less financially stressful by collecting over 25 dresses plus accessories for less fortunate local teens. The dresses were donated to Fairy Godmothers, a local nonprofit that makes the donations available at a low cost. The dresses were sold at the Fairy Godmothers’ 2010 Prom Fair for $10 each, and accessories from earrings to purses were also available for just $2 – $4.

Nastasi killed three of Salamone\’s employees eight years ago when he deliberately drove his Cadillac at high speed into a Mount Ephraim McDonald\’s that Salamone managed. Nastasi died in prison this week, six months before his parole date. \”I don\’t feel any emotion for him,\” Salamone, 45, of Mount Ephraim, said Friday. \”He changed not only the families\’ lives, but mine, too.\” Nastasi, 60, of Haddon Heights, pleaded guilty to three counts of vehicular homicide in the May 15, 2002, crash that prosecutors said was a failed suicide attempt. Three years later, Nastasi, a father of two, was sentenced to seven years in prison. He was serving his time at South Woods State Prison in Bridgeton and would have been eligible for parole on Dec. 2.

Video 9 Gloucester City Firefighters Protest Layoffs

GLOUCESTER CITY NJ-An estimated crowd of 300 people, mostly local and out of town firefighters, their family members and their supporters, packed the Gloucester City Community Hall, on Nicholson Road Thursday night (May 27, 2010) to voice their opposition to a proposed cutback in the local fire department. If there were any people who favored the reduction in force in lieu of raising taxes they soon disappeared or sat very quietly.

This is one of several video clips that I took at the meeting. Sorry the quality of the film is so distorted, but the audio comes across real clear. Video 9 is the last of the clips. They will be removed from the current page over the next couple of days and filed in the following categories for future reference…City of Gloucester City,  Fire, Film, Gloucester City NEWS.~Bill Cleary
