Letter to the editor: Skyy Moore helps his hometown
On July 2, New Kensington’s very own Skyy Moore, second-round draft choice by the Kansas City Chiefs, showed his appreciation for the city where he grew up. Skyy, along with his clothing line company, hosted the inaugural “Summer Slam” basketball tournament, with the proceeds going to our local youth football league. On that Saturday Memorial Park came alive; it was a festive atmosphere and hundreds of people came out to either play or watch the games and the talented players.
Hopefully the much-anticipated John W. Regoli Jr. Memorial Park will come to fruition and the Summer Slam be held in our downtown, because people (who can’t get to Memorial Park) could walk there. The crowds would be larger, and our downtown merchants would benefit.
A big thanks to Skyy Moore for taking time out of his demanding schedule to do something to benefit our community.
