With COVID, cones are a no-no, but Mitchell’s Ice Cream is still dishing the good stuff

July 5, 2020 by Murray Schneider

May 26, 2020 by Bonnee Waldstein

Saturday night life takes a hit in Glen Park

March 14, 2020 by Bonnee Waldstein

Photos by Bonnee Waldstein The usual weekend hustle and bustle of folks enjoying a Saturday night in the neighborhood was nowhere to be seen tonight.  The village was eerily quiet.  The only establishment that seemed to be thriving was Canyon Market, which experienced a surge of shoppers all day and into the evening. The obvious […]

April 2, 2019 by Bonnee Waldstein

To celebrate the Glen Park Association Website turning ten years old, we are reposting some of our favorite stories from the last ten years.
