“Do you believe in love at first sound?"

On a Friday night at Johnston’s Ballybay, a pub on the west side of Syracuse (550 Richmond Ave., 471-1289), Brian -Bromka yells, "Dame!" in a booming voz loud enough to be heard over the pulsating beat of the Cuban and African ritmos that make up salsa music.

Night falls on Syracuse. And while many Salt City citizens are nestled in their beds others are witnessing shocking images of bloody horror, freakish degradation and hackneyed schlock.
The Greater Strathmore Neigborhood Association is proud to host the 5th annual Parks Run from Syracuse's historic Onondaga Park. This 4 mile trek will begin and end in the park, while taking you on a visual tour of one of NYS most beautiful family neighborhoods. Enjoy the tremendous views of downtown (and even the windmills of Oneida) from one of the city's highest peaks. The event is open to anyone of any age, and rates are designed for individuals and for entire families- there will be plenty of fun scheduled for non-running participants as well.
