Commander-Roosevelt Post 58
The Post has had a picnic every year since 1945, almost 70 years straight.
As we did last year, we kept the menu simple and stuck to kielbasa sandwiches, hamburgers, potato salad, chips and the member-donated pastry and sweets. This year we opened up to all Polish Legion of American Veterans (PLAV) Members (We are Roosevelt Post # 58 of the Polish Legion of American Veterans, USA) and guests with the hopes of getting new members.

Cjay and Stop the Violence will perform at 7:00 p.m. at Night Out Against Crime, Steelyard Commons.
From my first day performing at Cleveland’s National Night Out Against Crime (NNO) in Steelyard Commons in 2009, I’ve understood and loved the purpose of the event: Invite the community out for a safe an entertaining day, filled with different cultures, educational segments, and performers with amazing skills. My love for performing is not the only reason behind my annual appearance. I have a passion for inspiring the youth and giving back to my community, so my partners and I use our talents to uplift the youth. We promote non-violence and education through music and positive coaching. The National Night Out Against Crime became important to me when I realized how much good and positivity can come from the city of Cleveland when everyone comes together to do his or her part. I thank Jenn Scudellari for the opportunity and for making the NNO a successful event yearly. – Cjay, CEO/ Entertainment Director, Stop The Violence Tour

First Interstate Properties was approached by Target back in 2007 with a request to partner together with the City of Cleveland to host a safety event at Steelyard Commons. Our event started off small – taking up only two parking aisles – and we invited the community down for fun, education and neighborhood awareness. Eight years later, our message is still the same, but NNO at Steelyard Commons has grown to fill The Home Depot parking lot (and more) and has become an institution in the Second District community: an event that showcases not only our city’s anti-crime programs but what a STRONG community we truly are. I am honored to have been part of the NNO Planning Committee since the beginning and have met lifelong friends through the process. All of us at Steelyard Commons encourage you to come down and check out our event this year – learn a little, laugh a little, and eat…a lot! -Jenn Scudellari, Operations & Marketing Coordinator, First Interstate Properties, Ltd.

I first got involved with NNO when I took over as a manager with Target in Steelyard Commons. Target is the national sponsor of NNO, and because of that I worked hand- in-hand with the Cleveland Second District Police Department, the community, and First Interstate Development to implement and grow the event. After seven years of being at the Steelyard Target, I left to pursue my dream of owning my own bar and grill and landed at the Rowley Inn. Now that I am a business owner and resident in the same neighborhood that the NNO event serves, I continue to drive the “Safe Community” mentality by working with the Second District Community Relations Committee and all the contacts I met during my years with Target. I still attend all the meeting and give feedback on how to improve the event by all the lessons that have been learned from the previous years’ events. The Rowley Inn will also be cooking the nearly 4,000 hotdogs that will be served at the event at no charge to any of the visitors. The Rowley Inn wants to work to help the event and the community by spreading the word of how a safe community and strong neighborhood can make Cleveland a better place for us all to live and work. -Matthew Petersen, Owner, Rowley Inn
Matt Peterson, representing Target at NNO 2013, accepted an award for his continued support of the event.
