to our fiscal sponsor Kids
Orbit, the local after school program, for serving
as a conduit for donations while we formalize our legal status.
Their help has allowed us to receive donations from the generous
Con Edison
and from our dedicated Assemblyman Jim
Brennan towards our upcoming newsletter. Thanks to
all three!
Additional sponsors are still needed. For information

Construction
in Vanderbilt Playground slated to begin in April 2009:
We just heard from the Prospect Park Alliance (PPA) that the final
design for a renovated Vanderbilt Playground has been approved
by the Art Commission. This was the last hurdle before the PPA
can proceed with the project. The final design is based on community
input and is very similar to the design
that was presented on March 18, 2008 at P.S. 154. The construction
is planned to begin around April 2009.
Linda
Woo Memorial Fund
On the morning of May 16th, 2008, beloved Kyung-Sook "Linda"
Woo, 63, who owned the Eden Dry Cleaners at 10th Avenue and Windsor
Place in Windsor Terrace, was found dead in her store. In January,
2009, we learned that Brooklyn Borough President Marty
Markowitz will be funding a tree guard to protect the
memorial sapling that was provided by Richard Bello Landscaping
and planted by the NYC Parks Department in front of the store
a few weeks after her untimely death. Subsequently, Clieve
Christian and the Prospect Park Commerce Bank (now
TD Bank) helped set up the Linda Woo Memorial Fund to
provide a plaque and/or funds to be donated to the family.
