Participating schools included PS 30 grammar school, and the High School for Social Justice. South Bronx Clean Air Coalition led a session with the teens encouraging them to imagine how they would like to see our neighborhood. Saint Benedict the Moor provided information on Community Supported Agriculture as well as fresh fruits and water. Later, we joined a community march to the garbage transfer stations on the waterfront to call attention to the proposed expansion and the significant environmental concerns the concentration of polluting industries in our community represents. http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/impressions/winter 1ea4d20c4026282bfc151bd80f3b8761 Thu, 05 Jun 2008 10:58:30 -0400 http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/impressions/view_comments.php?set_albumName=winter http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/albums/winter/IMG_2622.thumb.jpg http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/albums/winter/IMG_2622.sized.jpg http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/albums/winter/IMG_2622.thumb.jpg http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/impressions/Presentations-and-other-informative-materials 49ac77966c40739701f0ee2ca920c2fc Sun, 01 Jun 2008 12:39:16 -0400 http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/impressions/view_comments.php?set_albumName=Presentations-and-other-informative-materials http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/albums/Presentations-and-other-informative-materials/Slide1.thumb.jpg http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/albums/Presentations-and-other-informative-materials/Slide1.sized.jpg http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/albums/Presentations-and-other-informative-materials/Slide1.thumb.jpg http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/impressions/summer2005hssocjust 7025be9d58566a55999fd3327c3535c7 Sun, 01 Jun 2008 12:39:14 -0400 http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/impressions/view_comments.php?set_albumName=summer2005hssocjust http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/albums/summer2005hssocjust/group3.thumb.jpg http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/albums/summer2005hssocjust/group3.jpg http://www.friendsofbrookpark.org/albums/summer2005hssocjust/group3.thumb.jpg Continuing our school year partnership, we hosted this excellent school for the first day of Summer Session.
