It is amazing what a senior citizen armed with a computer and a lot of extra time on his hands can find out. I have located some interesting tax information regarding the Juniper Park Civic Association and their finances. Unfortunately, I am not an accountant but from doing my tax returns myself for over 30 years I noticed a few items that were of particular concern. To be sure I am correct with my assertion that something is afoot, I have turned over the returns to a good friend of mine who works for a certain government agency as a forensic accountant. I am eagerly awaiting his findings and will share them with our readers.
But here are few things to notice:
In 2005, the JPCA spent $31,735.00 on “Community Baseball League Programs including Little League Team” (990, part III, section b)
In 2004, the JPCA spent $50,181.00 on “Community Baseball League Programs” (990EZ, page 2, Item 29a)
In 2003, the JPCA spent $36,758.00 on “Community Baseball League Programs” (990EZ, page 2, Item 29a)
I’m sure the baseball league is the Midville Dodgers, so Robert Holden is giving Bob Holden money. Very interesting indeed and a possible conflict of interest. I wonder what explanation can be given for the almost $20K spike in spending in 2004.
Then we have the expenditures for the Juniper Berry
In 2005, the JPCA spent $43,603.00 on “Advancement and improvement of Community for Residents of Maspeth and Middle Village, Programs include community meetings and quarterly publication, “the Juniper Berry” (990, page 2, section a)
In 2004, the JPCA spent $13,740.00 on “Advancement and improvement of Community for Residents of Maspeth and Middle Village, Programs include community meetings and publication (990EZ, page 2, section 28a)
In 2003, the JPCA spent $11,003.00 on “Advancement and improvement of Community for Residents of Maspeth and Middle Village, Programs include community meetings and publication (990EZ, page 2, section 28a)
One again Robert Holden is paying Bob Holden to publish the Juniper Berry. “Advancement and improvement of Community for Residents of Maspeth and Middle Village”? It should be labeled “Advancement for Bob Holden and his courtiers and the improvement of the political status of Mr. Holden and Tony Nunziato of Maspeth and Middle Village.” It also seems that printing propaganda is getting expensive. I guess the price of ink and paper has skyrocketed because there was almost a $30,000.00 cost increase to publish the berry between 2004 and 2005. In addition, conspicuously absent from the returns are the dollar amounts the Berry receives from local merchant advertising. Do you smell crap?
There were other serious problems with the returns but my friend started to lose me with all the technical accounting jargon so I will wait for his “official” findings to go into further detail. I promise you that there will me more information coming soon. You can click on the images to see the enlarged version of the pages.
Special thanks to “Mr. T” for the tip, (he pities the JPCA fools).

Bob Holden makes Martha Stewart look like a penny stock trader. There is something definitely wrong here. How can a president of one organization donate tens of thousands of dollars to another organization of which he is president? Does Attorney General Andrew Cuomo read this blog?
How do you publish a magazine for $13,000 one year and then publish the same magazine for $43,000 the next year? Is there an investigative journalist in the house?
What goes around comes around. Politicians have their books audited and must document all expenditures. Who looks into the financials off certain civic and baseball orginizations to make sure no one is cooking the books.Volunteers my foot, paid to play more like it . Do they report itto the IRS on their 1099s.
WOW!! What a Score!!
Patrick Henry you are the man!!
Well, Since JPCA won't do it, guess this is going to have to count for a treasurers report to its members?
Yeah baby!!!!
Mmmmm, does anybody see that there are no officers, or directors listed on the 2004 return??
Patrick, please post the officers page from 2005!!
I guess Ms "CPA" bigshot missed that! What else did she "miss"
or "overlook"?
Patrick - you should send this to the CPA oversight committee, and have them look into her licensing!!
And so the mighty Bob "I'm not in it for the money" Holden, Christina "Pasta" Wilkinson, Tony "What about me?" Nunziato, Ed "I WAS a Marine" Kampermann, and Lorraine "I'm just a Bitch" Sciulli come falling down off their high perches!!
All I have to say about it is, "Great Job Patrick"!!
You warrant a raise .... and those idiots warrant a pair of handcuffs - and I know one "fat bastard" that would gladly lend law enforcement his!!!
I really am finding this hard to believe … this so-called “non for profit” actually had “excess” of $16,850 in 2005?
What for??
And they have almost $52,000 in cash??
I guess this is the little nest egg for Bob and his little “play mate” Christina can run away with!
Where are the 2006 returns??
Very Interesting Patrick. Did you notice when you click on the returns there is a place for "Grants"?
Is that where Bob was supposed to list the government grants or are they being used elsewhere?
Something is wrong in Midville. This cries out for an investigation
Maybe we can get Dennis Gallagher’s next fundraiser put on there!
At least we now know why JPCA removed their Pro Bono Counsels who had served for years when he asked for a financial reporting. Yes Bob see what happens when people look?
In all my years I never heard a Treasures report at JPCA meetings I wonder what else the Patriots will find?
Notice Bob Holden signed the returns and not Flora Gannon the Treasurer of JPCA do you think she knows?
Seems like Bob conned a neighbor to sign the tax return.
Seems like Bob is playing Fiscal Three Card Monty. Here is the money; nope there it is nope it’s over here.
Only the Patriots see through his Con.
Bob loves Press! Maybe someone should call and ask him about this.
Better yet wait till next week and see what else I have found. I Pity the Fool.
MR T.
Where are the Midville Dodgers filings. Where did the money go?
Does this mean that Civic dollars were spent on a baseball team without a vote of the membership?
How can Holden put money into his baseball team from the civic? He is the President of both isn't that a conflict of interest?
I think Bob Holden and his crew now realize that those in a glass house should not toss stones?
I wonder what the Holden sympathizers have to say about this Post they seem quiet so far?
This proves Bob is Above the Law because he should be investigated for this and other abuses.
Patrick can you get the Midville Dodgers Tax Returns? How about the Juniper Park Conservancy? I sure if someone is cooking the books for one they will do it for all.
Did Bob do any special political favors for his printer to get that cheap rate for the one year? Maybe his students did work for the printer so Bob could profit.
I know the relationship between his students and him is being reviewed by a higher authority.
Looks like Pandora's box has been opened!
Seems like Holden and Avella are perfect together Bob screws his civic to profit from baseball.
Avella screws kids by placing Toxic wasate on ball fields.
Both deserve to be flogged
Dear Patrick,
As you posted on May 4,
"In addition there is a fee for pitching and hitting consultation. I know that the dedicated and experienced coaches who volunteer their time can accomplish this task, so once again I'm not sure how you can charge for that service."
I have to pay myself, Steve Fiedler, and Robert Doocey. We all have to make a living.
Of course, We do not claim in on our taxes because it is all volunteer work and you should know that payment for volunteer work is non-taxable. Just ask my CPA.
Oh I almost forgot, I also have to pay Tony "Tulips" Nunziato a few bucks to stop crying ....
Where is the line item denoting the expenditure that the JPCA is paying for Christina's legal fees? As a matter of fact, where are the figures for all the legal fees JPCA has incurred fighting their frivolous lawsuits?
I thing the patriots should call upon local authorities to check under the cushions of the couch located in Bob's illegally converted basement to find the extra cash
Does this so called CPA (Chairperson of the Auditing Committee) not know that there are 6 people listed as “Board of Directors” on JPCA website?? And 18 people list on the “Executive Board”?
Well I guess if she is that careless about the filing of an official tax return, we can only guess at how careless she is with the auditing of the books.
I am no accountant - but doesn’t the IRS have some very stiff penalties for preparers that knowingly prepare false tax returns?
I guess her defense is going to be, “Sorry I missed that one – yes Mr. IRS AGENT - every year …. and I really don’t audit the books or anything … I just do Bob …. I mean I just do what Bob tell me to do.”
I can buy a lot of horse crap to ferterlize my flowers with the amoung of money bobby is playing with.
It is about time that someone is pointing a finger at the corrupt JPCA. For years we have been subjected to Holden and his idiots pointing their fat vindictive fingers at everybody else hoping that it would deflect anyone from takiking a serious look at their shanannigans. Move over Paris, you may have to share a cell with the ugliest debutante of them all, Bobbi Holden
Patrick you sure have opened people’s eyes even the most steadfast supporter of Bob Holden and the JPCA has to wonder what is going on.
I bet when you look further you will find Civic money spent to renovate his home.
You may also find Civic money going to his best friend who is a member of the board.
Who knows what you will find when you go to the Juniper Park Conservancy and the Midville Dodgers or did Bob "forget" to file those.
Wait till Flora Gannon gets the call by those in an official capacity to explain the JPCA finances. I believe she will tell the truth but where will that leave Bob?
What will this site find next week. You are a wealth of information!
Can you find out who paid all of the legal fees for the Dog Court Case and St. Saviours?
Maybe it was the Midville Dodgers?
If I were a member of the Executive committee I would be at the DA's office demanding an official review. I never wanted to believe it but these issues against the JPCA seem legitimate.
Maybe Bob Doocey had too much Red wine and did the books for the JPCA
Seems like the Grass Man maybe in charge of the books.
One thing is clear the membership is not in charge of the books. This info should be sent to the Attorney Generals office. Pataki can no longer protect the Holden's.
"Volunteers" seem to have alot of money at their disposal.
Manny Caruana knows all about the books. He will have to be called in.
Tax evasion may not only be a Tulip problem.
i am new to this site if this is true then please lets get an investigation started.i will continue to monitor this site to see what happens
The only thing more questionable than the Sopranos ending last night is how Bob Holden and his band of cheats handle our communities finances.
Speaking of the Sopranos do you think Bob is more paranoid than Tony.
God help the JPCA if they played so fast and loose with money in the corporate world they would be arrested
Why isn't anyone talking about how Bob uses his Community Board position to raise money for himself? It is a Crime Clear and Simple!
Have no fear the DA will be here!
HOOPER MUST DO THE BOOKS, HE ONLY COUNTED 250 PEOPLE AT THE PARK SUNDAY. WE ALL WHERE THERE AND SAW CLOSER TO 1000. WHY DONT YOU TAKE A PICTURE DURING THE EVENT NOT BEFORE.
It is clear they can't count look at the Tax Returns!
Do you think Bob will cry like Paris when his time comes?
Anyone catch Steve smoking grass last night? I think someone did!
holden lets see what your advertisers think about this
Maybe Detrano taught Bob how to file Taxes and about Finance?
This Post alone should warrent the attention of interested parties that are already looking at Bob Holden JPCA Midville Dodgers and Bob's use of his students at New York Tech.
Do you know what’s wrong with Bob Holden and his crap buddies? They can't even let the community enjoy a night in the Park. They hated Community Day. They Hated Queens Symphony. They Hate the Candlelight Vigil. Only the Midville Dodgers are ok with them! They have become such pathetic whining idiots.
Has anyone told Bob how his attempt to divide the community to win Political office has been ended by a Veteran named Patrick Henry. Patrick I admire you! Keep doing your civic duty and God Bless you for your Service.
Now that this fraud Holden has been exposed, maybe a Dog Run in Juniper is possiable.
Municipal Turd Holden should be forced to do community service if he is ever sentenced. He should clean up Dog Poop, fitting for the piece of Crap.
The Queens Crap is now attacking Congressman Joe Crowley for supporting Mayor Bloomberg's Manhattan Congestion Pricing Plan. Guess this is the thanks you get, Congressman, for changing Holden's zip code to 11379 so his house is listed as a Middle Village property and increases it's resale value. Welcome to the Holden world of "what have you done for me lately that financially benifits me". Maybe now you can use your connections to alert someone in the IRS to review and audit the JPCA tax returns, along with the Midville Dodgers and the Juniper Park Conservancy. While you're at it, have them throw his personal returns into the mix just as a way of saying "thank you" to him.
I may not be a bright man but it seems as if Bob Holden has made alot of enemies
Watch out Councilman Tony Avella--the JPCA executive board just voted you their Man of the Year.
Historically the JPCA Man of the Year award is their Kiss of Death--a high probablility that the irrational JPCA executive board will go to war against you within a year's time.
Witness past JPCA award winners Gallagher and Benepe, who shortly thereafter were public enemy number one with Bobby H. and his merry band of sycophants who claim to represent Middle Village.
Says a lot about the JPCA exective board and their sense of judgement. Man of the Year one month, persona non grata the next.
This site has the nerve to be critical of the Queens Crap. This site has an agenda. To slam the names of others. And you call yourselves Patriots?
Ironic Avella gets an award from a civic thats not part of his district. What do the civics in his area think of him? I would be upset if my councilmember spent that much time out of my district. Or maybe their releved that his not there.
To the blogger who supports The Crap. Tell us what do you think of this Tax return? Did the accountant fill it out in Bob"s Illegal basement.
How do you justify all that money spent on Baseball without a vote of the membership?
You Can't. So keep your Crap and we will continue to love our True Patriots.
I tried publishing something on the Crap... they never printed it.
So you tell me who has an agenda.
Me too, I tried to publish something it never appeared because The Crap won't print the truth.
The Crap are a bunch of anti social misfits. Pay no attention to the losers behind the curtain for they are being exposed for the phonies they are.
Christina let all the comments be published if you want the crap to be respected.
The Crap is certainly named right. The Site is Crap as is the host and phony bloggers. We know the Patriots are substantive.
