The Gloucester City Mustangs, Gloucester City Girls Softball, Gloucester City Soccer, Carmen Palmeiro Basketball League and Gloucester Little League rely on the efforts of volunteers.

These organizations charge a fee to participate, and to a few people the fee charged may seem high, but when you investigate the cost to participate in other communities you have to wonder how Gloucester Athletics can be so reasonable.

Look at your son or daughter’s uniform and you will see a name of a business or group on the front. It may be considered advertising to some people but how many of you have made

an effort to either support or even give thanks to these sponsors. Many sponsors donate to these Leagues even during these difficult times to help offset the cost each athlete pays to participate. During the past year, many of these contributors have made an extra effort to support the Gloucester City Little League during last year’s financial difficulties.

On February 21, 2015. Age 82, of Gibbstown. Survived by his daughter, Nedda J. Mullans (Richard, III) of Paulsboro; sons, Alfred A. and Russell C. Monaco both of Gibbstown, grandson, Michael Mullans.

MOUNT CARBON WEST VIRGINIA (February 16, 2015)The resulting explosion shot fireballs into the sky, destroyed one house and injured one person who was treated for possible respiratory problems. Local water utilities took precautions after oil was found in a creek running parallel to the CSX tracks and testing was under way in the Kanawha River. The derailment is just the latest in a series of rail accidents highlighting the risks of transporting crude, and came just two days after another in Ontario, Canada that ignited seven rail cars.

CNB Tips and Snippets:

SHOULD YOU BE WORRIED?–After watching the news report about an oil train derailment in West Virginia, it was good to see Conrail workers in the area installing new railroad ties and track ballast. The ballast is used to bear the load from the railroad ties, to facilitate drainage of water, and also to keep down vegetation that might interfere with the track structure. This also serves to hold the track in place as the trains roll by. It is typically made of crushed stone, although ballast has sometimes consisted of other, less suitable materials. The new material was placed along the Conrail line that runs south and north from Camden through Gloucester City, Brooklawn, Westville and beyond. 

PENNSAUKEN NJ–The pictured individuals are suspects in the Robbery of United Gas located at 3611 River Road on 2/8/15. The driver of the vehicle was described as a Hispanic male, heavy build, in his mid 20’s. The passenger was described as a Hispanic male, slim build, in his mid 20’s. After the Robbery they fled on the vehicle into Camden City. If anyone can identify the suspects, the vehicle or has additional information contact Det. Sgt. Philip Olivo (856) 488-0080 ext. 2402.
