Menchaca, Gentile to host unity rally in Sunset Park
Elected officials, local civic and religious leaders and community organizations will be gathering together at a Sunset Park catering hall for a special “Unity in the Community” event organized by two local lawmakers.
Councilmembers Carlos Menchaca (D-Sunset Park-Red Hook) and Vincent Gentile (D-Bay Ridge-Dyker Heights-Bensonhurst) are working together to organize the unity event, which will take place on Monday, Feb. 6, at Widdi Catering Hall, 5602 Sixth Ave., from 2 to 5 p.m.
The idea behind the event, according to Menchaca and Gentile, is to demonstrate what the neighborhoods they represent are all about: unity in the community.
