An annual event hosted by the Pelham Civics Association for all Pelham kids K-5. Participants “compete” in fun athletic games from a sack race to shooting on a professional soccer goalie, tug of war, running races (optional), and more. Everyone medals at the Pelham games!

President Mike Ming and Membership Chairman John Boyce proudly welcomed six new Pelham Civic members to the organization: Chris Nieves, Rob Rubicco, Chris Michailoff, Chris Harriss, Tyler Garrow, and John Gardner.

The Civics presented six Community Awards totaling $27,500 to exemplary Pelham Memorial High School students on June 8, 2021.

The pandemic may have put the parts of the world on pause, but the Pelham Civic Association and DeCicco & Sons teamed up to assist those in need during the holiday season. According to Dr. Stanley Trocchia, current Chair of the Pelham Civics’ Good Neighbor Program, “We have a wonderful 30-year tradition with DeCicco & Sons during the holidays. Because of their benevolent donation, the Civics were able to provide dozens of families with both Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets, which we refer to as ‘deserving families.

We at the Pelham Civic Association are anguished over the deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and many other victims of injustice and racism in the United States. We recognize that their horrific deaths are just the latest manifestations of the racism and inequality prevalent in our society. We are particularly saddened to hear our Black neighbors sharing their own stories of bias and discrimination right here in Pelham.

These awards recognize special students who not only excel academically but have also made significant contributions to our community through their leadership in volunteer time, actions, talents, and dedication. These honorees selected serve as role models for compassion and service, as they demonstrated enthusiasm and motivation in the areas of community service, charitable support, civic leadership, and creativity in service:

At one time, technology was simply considered a backdrop to our workplaces and daily life. Now it’s, perhaps, the most significant component that’s interwoven into the fabric of how we work and live each and every day. So it would only stand to reason that the Pelham Civic Association and Pelham Schools’ Counseling Office host a Career Workshop on “Technology,” helping students understand career options in this dynamic sector as they begin thinking about college and the world beyond Pelham.
