Check out Youth Advocate Michael Cheng's guest post at the Green Brooklyn Blog.

Today, this 28th of August, we set out on another adventure of finding our supporters in their corners of Prospect Park. As our march to Bloomberg approaches, and the threat of rallying all by ourselves looms over us, it is even more essential for us to bring people to our event. Today was an ordinary day, another day of handing out postcards and pushing flyers about Brooklyn Brings It to Bloomberg on every park-goer we passed (very important). It was just Kelena and I today, with a goal of 80 postcards each. Today, I had to the Long Meadow, my favorite area, tons of people.

Join the Prospect Park Youth Advocates on September 15, 2008 to hand deliver 7,000 letters from Brooklynites to Mayor Bloomberg asking for a healthy, safe and car-free Prospect Park.


Brooklyn Brings It to Bloomberg

Join us to ask the Mayor for a Car-Free Park!

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 2008
4pm: Meet at Cadman Plaza East to walk over Brooklyn Bridge

5pm: Rally at City Hall

Saturday was really fun. We all gathered up and walked to Grand Army Plaza for a big day. This time while we were walking up the long hill of the Loop Drive, I observed lots of activities were happening at the park. As we were approaching our usual spot, I saw many people having BBQs with their families. Another interesting thing I noticed was a walkathon that was hosted for Diabetes research. But something very interesting I saw was many people gathered for one big circle of dancing.
