Save the date - Sept. 12 - for the Hawthorne Street block party

Planning for the Hawthorne Street block party (for Flatbush to Bedford) is in full gear. The next and last planning meeting will be on Wednesday, August 26 at 7 pm at the Church of the Evangel (Bedford at Hawthorne). If you live on Hawthorne, do try and make it. The group is also talking about starting a block association, and it's a great chance to meet neighbors.

Block party activities will be geared to kids, including organized games, a dance contest, free food for kids, and a puppet show by Alphabet Arts.
