Imagine our kids walking to school!

Apr 11, 2011 in Miscellany, Neighbor News, Public Meetings

In our history, West End neighborhood children were always able to walk to a nearby school. Today our children today are often driven to schools and sometimes the schools don’t offer the programs, classes and outlooks that we desire for our children. Take an hour or two this Wednesday night… to do something about it.
