Gastonia leaders celebrate Rankin Lake clubhouse makeover
Gastonia leaders recently unveiled a major renovation of the clubhouse at Rankin Lake Park, which had temporarily closed the building to residents.
When the city of Gastonia announced plans for the renovations last year it was reported the city would spend about $230,000 on the makeover.
Plans included new windows, flooring, doors to meet the standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act, ceiling tiles, cabinets and drywall, and painting the interior and exterior of the building.
The city also updated the building with a new warming kitchen. I was looking forward to the update with the kitchen since I knew this would make the park even more appealing to people, said City Councilman Robert Kellogg. People won t have to go through all of the work and expense of bringing it back and forth or having to use catering so that s convenient.

BROOKLYN, NY A cemetery in Brooklyn is taking a unique approach to celebrating Black History Month by honoring New Yorkers who found their final resting place on the historic grounds.
Green-Wood Cemetery the nearly 200-year-old cemetery below Prospect Park will host a virtual celebration to recognize the stories of some of its most prominent Black residents.
The event, set up for Feb. 24, will bring together Green-Wood s historian and Brooklyn City Council Member Robert Cornegy Jr. to discuss the New Yorkers unique life stories.
Communist Mayor de Blasio’s New York City limited health workers from giving out all available coronavirus vaccines in hopes of balancing out a supply shortage from last week. So, they’re not going out. It could be Cuomo’s policy. That’s unclear. What is clear is it is a problem with regulations and bureaucracy.
So, the vaccines just sit around until they expire? They do expire and get thrown out. Some have already been thrown out in New York City.
Health care workers say they’re “screwed.”
The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, which oversees the city’s immunization drive, restricted the number of available vaccination appointments across 15 pop-up sites and forbade workers from reaching out to community groups in order to give out more shots, according to a report by New York Magazine’s Intelligencer.
