Aside from the above, we've started seeds for the community gardens, had a great start to our Eat Right/Move More program with 5th and 6th graders at Movement City, are embarking on a Low-Impact Development Study for Lawrence's alleyways and we'll be hiring for our summer youth positions soon.  We hope you've enjoyed this eNewsletter and we look forward to a successful 2008!
