| Red Tails Experience offers Deerfield Beach youth an unforgettable history lesson On Saturday, January 21, Deerfield Beach teens are invited to participate in a special viewing of the George Lucas film Red Tails, a true story about the struggles and triumphs of the Tuskegee Airmen, a group of African American U.S. service members during World War II. District 2 Commissioner Ben Preston, who originally brought the idea to city staff, would like to see kids citywide participate in this opportunity. “This movie is about one aspect of the American experience,” says Preston. “I want to give kids from across the city a chance to come together to learn about this inspiring story, and to share their own experiences with me and their peers.” Commissioner Preston will address participants before attending the movie with them. He will also announce the details of an essay contest for those attending. The outing will run from 11 AM-3 PM, and will include admission to the theater, popcorn and soda, and a pizza lunch. Those attending must meet at 11 AM at the Westside Park Gymnasium, 445 SW 2nd Street. From there, the city will provide transportation to the Paragon Deerfield 8 Theaters located at the Deerfield Mall. There is no cost for the Red Tails Experience, but space is limited to the first 120 kids to register. To attend, a teen must be a Deerfield Beach resident between the ages of 13-17. Participants must preregister with the Parks and Recreation Department by Thursday, January 20 at 5 PM. For more information, call 954-426-6898 or email web.parks@Deerfield-Beach.com. | |

US Congressman Allen West Should Apologize to Deerfield Beach Housing Authority Director Pam Davis.
 |
| U.S. Congressman Allen West Clowning Around in Deerfield Beach, FL |
If you remember, Allen requested this foolish investigation based on the allegations made by Chaz Stevens, who admittedly holds a grudge both personal and racial against Ms. Pam Davis and the Deerfield Beach Housing Authority. Chaz and Allen were joined on this fools errand with none other than City of Deerfield Beach Mayor Peggy Noland, herself.
It would seem that if Congressman Allen West and his Staff spent more time researching issues instead of attending root beer socials at the behest of a racist and sexist self proclaimed "Genius", maybe he would be a better Congressman for his constituents and the people of the United States of America.
My guess is that Allen West will not apologize for wasting our time and precious tax payer dollars on this folly, but he should.
