62nd Annual Armed Forces Day Parade in Torrance, Sat. May 18

62nd Annual Armed Forces Day Parade and Celebration Returns to Torrance

 

The City of Torrance is proud to announce the 62nd Annual Armed Forces Day Parade and Celebration will take place Friday, May 17 through Sunday, May 19. Armed Forces Day is celebrated on the third Saturday of May each year and celebrates all six branches of the United States Military under the U.S. Department of Defense.

This year the United States Space Force receives the honorary military branch distinction with Lieutenant General Philip A. Garrant serving as the Grand Marshal of the Armed Forces Day Parade. Lt. Gen. Garrant is Commander of U.S. Space Force’s Space Systems Command, headquartered at Los Angeles Air Force Base in El Segundo, California. Space Systems Command is responsible for supplying our Nation, allies, and warfighters with critical timely and resilient space-based capabilities. This is critical because they close the key gaps that create vulnerability, timely because our pacing challenges are working faster to take over our Nation’s place in space, and resilient because emergency threats demand it. Our military, our Nation and our allies rely on the Space Force to deliver the space-based capabilities that protect our Nation, enable our critical infrastructures, and fuel our economy. Also joining Lt. Gen. Garrant to lead the parade are Honorary Grand Marshal, Michael Hopkins, retired U.S. Space Force Col. and former NASA Astronaut, and Senior Ranking Flag Officer, Col. Mia L. Walsh, Commander, Space Base Delta 3 (SBD 3), Los Angeles Air Force Base.

Torrance Mayor George K. Chen said, “This cherished tradition not only honors the bravery and sacrifice of our Armed Forces, but also unites us in gratitude and patriotism. Let us pay tribute to our heroes that protect us worldwide courageously and celebrate the spirit of resilience that defines our great City!”

Torrance is one of the few cities nationwide sanctioned by the Department of Defense to honor our Armed Forces through an annual Armed Forces Day Parade and Celebration. The three day celebration includes a military exhibit, military concert, special flyover surprises, 5K For Freedom, and the highly anticipated parade along Torrance Boulevard.

Meeting Re: Television City's Plans for Massive Redevelopment

TELEVISION CITY PLANS MASSIVE REDEVELOPMENT


SPEAK UP NOW AND LET YOUR COUNCILMEMBER KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF THIS MEGA-DEVELOPMENT

Dear Miracle Mile Neighbors,
 
On Wednesday, May 15 at 9:30 AM, the City of Los Angeles Planning Department will hold a virtual public hearing about the redevelopment of Television City, the former historic CBS Studios, at Beverly and Fairfax.
 
The main purpose of the hearing is to collect feedback from the public, and we urge you to call in and speak about the impacts of this massive project on our community.
 
Just as importantly, we urge you to communicate with our City Councilmember, Katy Yaroslavsky, to let her know that our neighborhood is concerned about the harm this mega-development will do to our community. 
 
HERE ARE THE FACTS:
 
TV City will be TWICE THE SIZE OF THE STAPLES CENTER. It doesn’t need to be. This is an office complex masquerading as a production studio.
 
The developer, Hackman Capital, has proposed a 1.7 million square foot studio project which is just 25% studio and 75% office compound. It has been advertised as a world-class studio. In reality, the new development would be a massive office complex with a small studio attached.
 
While some of the TVC office space is designated for studio use, 550,000 square feet is general office space that has no relation to production. Our community does not need a huge office complex and should not bear the burden of the added disruption and congestion it will cause, including a jitney making dozens of trips daily on Orange Grove to and from the new Metro Purple Line Subway stop near Wilshire and Fairfax.

You will be auto-muted when entering the meeting. To comment on an agenda item, click the raise hand icon (Webinar) or press *9 (Phone) to “raise your hand” virtually following staff calling the item.
 
REMEMBER, THE ONLY WAY TO LET OUR CITY COUNCIL KNOW HOW WE FEEL ABOUT THESE KINDS OF ENORMOUS, UNNECESSARY DEVELOPMENTS IS IF WE RAISE OUR VOICES BEFORE SHOVELS GO INTO THE GROUND!
 
THANK YOU FOR HELPING YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD!

CEO of Boyle Heights Community Partners Vivian Escalante will share her grandmother's short story as a women defense worker during World War II. She worked at Lockheed Martin building military war planes. Despite the long hours and difficult working conditions, she was proud to be doing her part to support the war effort.

She talked about the camaraderie among the women in the factory and how they supported each other through the challenges they faced. She also spoke about the sense of purpose she felt knowing that her work was helping to protect the country and the freedoms it stood for.

She looked back on her time as a women defense worker with pride and gratitude for the opportunity to serve her country and learn new skills, at a time when women were considered for these difficult careers.
