It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of their country.” Yes, we do thank God for our labor. We are thankful that most of us are employed and able to work. The hard work and entrepreneurial spirit of America has made our nation what it is, the greatest country that has ever been formed in the history of the world. With all of that being said, to the average American, Labor Day means a lot more exciting things. It means a day off from work. It means a three day weekend. It means BBQ’s or a day at the beach. To me it has always been bittersweet. It’s the unofficial end of summer. As a teacher, for the past 37 years Labor Day has signaled the end of my summer freedom and the start of reporting to my classroom when the bell rings. Fall is Football Season For some sports fans, baseball is something they “endure” between the Super Bowl in February, spring football practice in April and May and the opening of football training camp in July. There really is only one season for serious football fanatics. The NFL is the most popular professional sports league in the world. There are fantasy leagues, tailgate parties, corporate suites, gambling schemes, all-access television packages, 24 hours football sports bars and many wives who enjoy their free time while their husbands watch hundreds of games. I enjoy college football more so than the professional. Young men are competing for their school, hoping to be good enough to make it to the next level and play on Sundays. High school football gives so many guys an opportunity to take their aggressiveness out in a controlled environment. For all the football injuries that have been widely publicized recently, the “good” that comes from playing football can not be overlooked. Teamwork, dedication, overcoming adversity, physical challenge, and much more are all lessons that come when participating. The question the parent must answer, “Do I want my son to risk being injured for all the good things that come from playing football?”. Neon Sign The Hawthorne Grill restaurant was located at the corner of 137th and Hawthorne Blvd for a few years in the late 1990’s taking over for Holly’s which was a popular “coffee shop and hang out” for many Hawthornites. When the building was being torn down to build the new AutoZone, a local resident purchased the “Hawthorne” neon sign and stored it along side of his driveway. He recently donated the sign to the Hawthorne Historical Society and last week the sign was installed on the side of the Hawthorne Museum. At night the pink neon lights shout out Hawthorne to all who drive into the library’s parking lot. Seeing the sign might bring back a few memories for those who frequented the Grill in years gone by. Cameras for Cops Mayor Chris Brown has proposed that every Hawthorne police officer wear a body camera while on duty. In light of the recent police shooting in Missouri, this may sound like a great idea. However, there are many things that have to be considered before this would take place. Among the concerns would be privacy concerns when the officers’ video reveals personal issues with suspects or victims, storage of video content, cost associated with purchasing and maintaining the cameras and monitoring system, and legal issues that may arise from citizens who object to being taped. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, in this case a picture or video may prevent thousands of dollars in legal fees or even prevent the death of a suspect or officer. We will be watching to see how this all plays out. Watch the City Council meeting for continuing discussion. Installation of Officers and Civic Awards- Chamber The Hawthorne Chamber of Commerce announces the 44th Annual Installation of Officers and Civic Awards dinner to be held on Friday, September 26 with registration to begin at 5:30 pm and the program at 6:30 pm.
