Greenburgh Scout Creates Juice Company, Goes On Trade Mission To Israel GREENBURGH, N.Y. – Greenburgh teen entrepreneur Kevin Ge had an idea for a business, and, boy, was it a juicy one. The Edgemont High School student was visiting a winery with his parents three years ago when he became bored and sneaked away from the tour group. The then-14-year-old, found himself wandering among the vines, idly plucking grapes and eating them.

Letter To The Editor: One-Off Deals Don't Reflect Sound Economic Judgment Letter To The Editor: One-Off Deals Don't Reflect Sound Economic Judgment

But what is questionable about this message is the method. Last November, Astorino announced a proposal to develop and privatize Westchester County Airport with Oaktree management, a company that specializes in distressed properties.

This proposal was done with no input from the public, particularly the residents around the airport …
