Starting September 15 registration begins for the "Learn to Swim Program" through the Roosevelt Island Marlins for anyone between 4 years and 14 years old. Contact RIMarlinsSwim@Yahoo.com or call the number listed on the flyer.
Next weekend starts a month of several special events recognizing Hispanic Heritage Month across Roosevelt Island. The events are sponsored in part by RIVAA and RIOC.
In addition to being a vital part of Roosevelt Island's transportation infrastructure the Tram resumed its role as school bus to many students that commute off the island to numerous public and private schools.
All comments are now moderated and due to the nature that this blog is INACTIVE comments left will only be periodically reviewed and approved if at all.
Where previous comments were essentially unmoderated I have grown tired at seeing the same old comments posted by a few individuals unhappy about the state of various affairs on this island. My suggestion is find a constructive and new outlet for your grievances. Better yet get involved and change things if you desire change. If you are looking for time to stand still ...deal with it as it's not happening.
Perhaps start your own blog. They are free at Blogger.com
Local bloggers wanted to provide content to this blog under their own name as team members. Contact Eric.
