This past Sunday afternoon, the Golden Grill on Teaneck’s Queen Anne Road was packed with guests, standing-room-only, as residents came together to enjoy brunch and meaningful dialogue. Conversations were as nourishing as the food, with attendees taking advantage of this unique opportunity to discuss important issues, build connections and celebrate the strength of Teaneck’s diverse community. Organized by the Real Experience, Real Results Teaneck Council campaign of Mark (Mendy) Schwartz and Karen Orgen, in partnership with the Chondra Young for Teaneck Council campaign, the two slates united to advocate for a more connected and unified Teaneck. This event marks the beginning of what could be a new chapter for Teaneck, one where collaboration and community drive us toward a brighter, more inclusive future.

Special thanks to hosts: Avi Berliner, Nate Briggs, Darryl Greene, Coach Cekuan James, Elie Y. Katz, Emanuel Klein, Tony Parker, Dre Perrin, Yitz Stern and Jacqueline Wilson.
