Mike James Day in Amityville set for July 28th

On July 28, 2007 the 3rd Annual Mike James Day (MJD) will be held at Bolden Mack Park from noon until 6 p.m. In 2005 the Suffolk County city officials handed the 2004 NBA Champion the keys to the city. After Mike's financial donation to assist with revitalizing court, the park was officially renamed, The Mike James Court at Bolden Mack Park.

The MJD is held annually, the last Saturday in July at Bolden Mack Park. This year on July 28th we have partnered with the Office of Minority Health, the office of Legislative Elie Mystal and the Town of Babylon Parks and Recreation Department to provide a voter's registration drive, free immunizations, free glaucoma screenings, and more.

The 2007 MJD will bring "old school" hip-hop back to the community with the legendary Chubb Rock, Sirius Radio DJ Dana Dane, Master Gee n Wonder Mike formerly of the Sugar Hill Gang, Special Ed and Just Ice. HBO will be on hand to tape this history making performance. Gospel sensation The McClurkins will also grace the stage as well.

The Mike James Day is a grassroots effort that seeks to bring together Suffolk County residents, community leaders, city officials and businesses to develop ideas that assist with providing safe neighborhoods, eliminating health disparities and promoting healthy families. This free community event engages members of the community to provide resourceful information, food and live entertainment to a very diverse audience.

We believe that together we can make a positive impact in the lives of the Suffolk County citizens.
