There will be a special, first time ever event along the waterfront this fall – an Art Festival.

The Gloucester City Cultural Arts and Heritage Society is planning its first annual Art Festival Saturday, September 26, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in Proprietor’s Park.

The group met August 9 at Troxie\’s Chicken and Pizza on Broadway to set down ideas, and will have a follow-up meeting Wednesday, September 23, at Heavy’s on the Harbor, Jersey Avenue, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

WASHINGTON – The 300,000-member National Association of Letter Carriers (AFL-CIO) announced today that it has selected Philadelphia as the site of the 69 th Biennial NALC National Convention in 2014.

NALC President Fredric V. Rolando said the convention, one of the largest in the union movement, will be held July 21-25, 2014 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia. The NALC’s last convention, in 2008 in Boston, attracted more than 7,400 voting delegates.

I am referring to the resident on King Street who stated to the Gloucester City News: \”I called the police right around 5 p.m. and asked to have them block the intersection. It took them almost half an hour to do that!\”

The August 13th Gloucester City News reported the police department responded to 1,445 calls during July.

The witness observed a suspect climb through the window and then moments later open the Ridgeway St. door and let the other suspect into the building.

After a representative from the school arrived with a key, a K-9 search of the building was conducted, turning up no suspects.

Officers reviewed the surveillance tape and observed (2) males enter the building and then quickly exit the building via the Sussex St. door. Investigation is ongoing pending identification of the males.

• 8/19/09: At 6:36 a.m. an officer responded to a residence in the 900 block of Market St. for a juvenile complaint. Upon arrival, the father told the officer that he called the police because his (2) children were running around the house making noise while he was trying to sleep and they wouldn\’t stop. The officer spoke with the children and provided some advice to the father on how to control them.
