Photo Gallery: ‘Week Of The People’ Features Tribute To ‘Turk’ Young

August 27, 2016 Social

2016 Week of the People - 5 — Waltin “Turk” Young, with megaphone, speaks to the crowd at the honorary reaming of Matilda Avenue in his name.

It may have been the “Week of the People” celebration, but there was clearly only one man of the hour at Naaman Williams Park on Aug. 27.

That man was Waltin “Turk” Young, a mentor and coach to scores of township residents. An honorary renaming of Matilda Avenue to Waltin “Turk” Young Avenue kicked off the day, which featured food, entertainment and the opportunity for schoolchildren to receive school supplies.
