Mayor Jackson and Division of Police Introduce Community Engagement Officers to City Neighborhoods
by Nancy Kelsey
Today, Mayor Frank G. Jackson, Chief Calvin D. Williams and Deputy Chief Wayne Drummond provided background on the Community Engagement Officer (CEO) initiative and introduced the 15 new CEOs.
This initiative further demonstrates the City’s commitment to creating a better quality of life for residents. Each of the city’s five police districts has three CEOs focused on grassroots relationship-building, based on the specific needs of each district.
“It’s really about community engagement and community policing in a way that connects police officers with individuals and community organizations and community groups to have a real feel for what’s going on on the street,” said Mayor Frank G. Jackson. “People think of police answering 9-1-1 or going to homicides or robberies. This is a different approach.” Continue reading
A First, Roosevelt Post 58 Flies the Ukranian Flag Alongside the Polish Flag
Tom Matia (Post 58 PR Director,left, under Polish flag) and Terry Zacharyj (Post 58 Commander, right, under Ukrainian flag) show off a new diversity of flags in front of Roosevelt Veterans Post #58.
by Terry Zacharyj
This would have never happened in 1945 when the Post was formed. However, today Poland is supporting Ukraine in its battle with the Russians in Eastern Ukraine.
Also, many people will be coming into Tremont to the Ukrainian Festival at the museum on Kenilworth (6/30/18-7/1/18).
I am sure they will tour the neighborhood to see the homes and may stop at Post 58 if they see the flag.
The Roosevelt Veterans Post #58 is located at 2442 Professor Avenue ( in the Cleveland neighborhood of Tremont.

The Tremonster team is excited to introduce a new food feature, “Chef in the Land,” which we are launching this summer as both a TremonsterTV web series and a regular print column. Natasha Pogrebinsky, executive chef at The South Side and The Hi & Dry and creator of “Chef in the Land,” will be partnering with The Tremonster to produce web and print segments focusing on her passion and mission: using locally sourced, fresh ingredients to create modern cuisine with connections to her life story and inspired by her past. Some upcoming segments of “Chef in the Land” will include Pogrebinsky procuring ingredients from vendors at The West Side Market, area farms, and local food purveyors. Pogrebinsky, former owner and executive chef of the acclaimed Bear in New York City, is no stranger to the camera, appearing on Food Network programs such as Chopped and Beat Bobby Flay. To begin our partnership with Pogrebinsky, we sat down with her at The South Side to discuss her culinary philosophy, additions to the South Side menu, and fascinating immigration from Ukraine to Cleveland.

JOSH HEADS OUT TO THE NATURAL STATE TO FIND OUT JUST THAT!
A few years back, I was invited to a wedding in Tulsa, OK. I decided to drive down and make it an epic adventure, visiting anyone I knew in the basic drive path. I saw friends in northern Kentucky, central Missouri, Oklahoma, and Austin, Texas. My friends from Austin were going to a big Grateful Dead show in Chicago and were headed out the same day I was leaving to return to Cleveland. We decided to head back through Arkansas so my dude Blaine could check out a spot he wanted to see, Crater of Diamonds State Park, where you could dig in a HUGE dirt field for real volcanic diamonds and keep them!
