We are sad to hear that Chita Rivera, dancer, singer, actress, and writer, passed away at age 91. She came to prominence through her role as Anita in West Side Story, and made use of her ability to dance and sing on stage in productions like Chicago and Kiss of the Spiderwoman.
Congratulations to the Senior Tennis Players on their Senior Game. Thank you for representing Belleville so well over the past four years. “Once a Buccaneer, always a Buccaneer”.

What a day for Belleville! And what a turnout. Our brand new, 8-lane competitive track is finally open! The blue and gold looks amazing! This is one of only a few tracks in the State eligible to host State track meets.

Leonard Bernstein, 1977

Hundreds of proud Belleville residents cheered on Monday afternoon, March 20, as the town symbolically renamed Beech Street in honor of native son Lonnie Bunch III, the first Black secretary of the Smithsonian.
I'm just a guy from Belleville trying to make it in the big city. It is an honor to know my family's name is part of Belleville's future; this community is such an important part of our history. What a joy to share this day with members of Belleville High School Class of 1970!
