West End SPEAKS to West End ACTS

The first West End, Down the Way Reunion was a true community effort and huge success! A few hundred people gathered for the September 1st & 2nd celebration. The entire event was planned and paid for by the community organizers along with generous donations.  West End and Over the Rhine residents, past and present, were there for the family fun, food and seeing loved ones. ONE FAMILY ðŸ’œ ONE LOVE.



What a fashion show!! The models looked awesome and the clothes were so cute! They walked the runaway at Seven Hills Neighborhood Houses on August 9th and the place was packed! Donations made by Torrid, Aeropostale, Burlington, Mary Kay and Empire Beauty school made the evening possible. Here is a link to more pictures. The talented photographer was Louis Rideout.





FC Cincinnati hosted a Faith  & Family event on Sunday, September 16th. It was to celebrate the start of the West End youth soccer teams. Attendees listened to music, played games and ate a free meal.
