A good day with big thanks to Dimaira Echevarria who heads up the Parks clean up crew from Houston to Delancey.
And thanks to the City Relief folks who provide a safe haven to see old friends in the Park on the Delancey Street area of Sara Roosevelt Park (between Delancey and Broome area).
Old Friends Bob and Red
We are so lucky and grateful to have them offering different resources, including Goddard outreach workers (and the soup and hot chocolate are delicious).
They also clean up after their time there.
A win/win.
Last: Playgrounds
Even if you see an ’empty playground’ and think it would be a great place to bring your dog on or off-leash?
Don’t.
- Children/parents may not come in because you are there. Some people are afraid of dogs
- It signals you expect to be ‘trusted’ more than anyone else who might like to bring their dog into that space, trusted to pick up after any poop or pee. Or, you want your dog to be trusted not to attack a child. We can’t. We don’t.
- Young children don’t have the option to go somewhere else. You do.
- Last. If you are an adult – YOU aren’t allowed in there.
It really isn’t asking a lot. Really.
