NEW PARENTS ORGANIZATION FOR BED STUY?

Hey folks, it's been a while since i posted last. Activity hasn't slowed at all just the writing part.

What's been really interesting is the amount of really cool parents I've been meeting who are concerned with the lack of safe, constructive activities for our kids in Bed Stuy: neighbors who have been on our block for years but we rarely see each other because when it's time for our kids to play, we leave the neighborhood for points west - the slope, cobble hill, the heights and even the city.

Well, recent conversations have turned up the following conclusions:

• we can't go on like this much longer
• we won't go on like this much longer
• we must organize around our concerns

When I spoke to my neighbor today, I asked about forming an organization to structure activities, that we normally travel to, right here. She said that not only did she agree, but several more of her friends as well.

Stay tuned for the results.
