October Meeting Preview Our 2014/2015 season had a terrific start. The distribution of flyers throughout Grant City prior to the meeting remains very effective in bringing numerous new faces. Our first guest speaker was Dr. Irene Deitch, founder of the OPTIONS College Study Program for Mature Learners at CSI. The numerous courses offered should be of interest to anyone. See our website for the schedule. Next were Marybeth Melendez, Democratic candidate for the 64th Assembly District, then Gary Carsel, Democratic candidate for the 24th Senate District. Both presented their campaign platforms for the upcoming elections. Serious traffic concerns were raised for Lincoln Avenue and Hunter Avenue which were addressed by the Commanding Officer if the 122nd Prectinct, Captain Robert Bocchino and Officer Douglas. Updates will be provided at subsequent meetings. Captain Bocchino also brought to our attention a local incident of a skimming device placed on an ATM, and a spike in Green Dot money card scams. Ralph Porzio represented Senator Lanza, Carmine Raimondi represented Assemblywoman Malliotakis, and Lauren Centineo represented Councilman Matteo.
Guest Speaker: Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis
