Jasmin MGreat project! Taking something you already have and making it usable! Any hope of there being photos later?

Bradlee AWhat an awesome project! I, as well, would love to see some photos/video of that.

Barry FI've seen this park, and know how neglected it has been.

I know that Chrissa and Camila are meeting with Lyn to see what having a bunch of PeaceJammers work for a couple of hours on the Saturday of the PeaceJam Northeast Youth Conference (March 27) could do to help this great project - sounds like a conference service project site to me.

Barry FSounds like you've got this project really moving (and don't really need the help of others on it during the conference). I hear that PeaceJammers may be showing up ready to do some painting on March 27th. We look forward to helping in whatever way we can.
