Dear Friends with Bikes or Friends who have Friends with Bikes,

I know what you've been thinking lately:

1. I love to bike

2. Sunday, May 2, 2010 is an awesome date because it is divisible by 10

3. I really can't wait to get back on my bike after this cold, snowy winter

4. I don't have a bike, but my third cousin once removed told me I could borrow their amazing bike that is just sitting in their garage waiting to be used

5. I want to help Kids Creative raise some money but just don't know how

Well, fear not, amigos/as, your time is here. You, yes you, can sign up to be one of a select few to bike for Kids Creative in Bike New York's TD Bank Five Boro 42-mile Bike Tour. One of our amazing supporters, The Catalog for Giving, has a team of riders and we have been selected to supply riders directly to them, all proceeds coming back to KC!!! We only have a few spots, so it is first come, first bike. They will even have a professional trainer lead your training efforts.

Please let me know if you are interested. Please contact us for the registration info.

In summary:

Plays of awesomeness at PS 102

February 8, 2010
Come join the premier of two amazing performances at PS 102 in East Harlem, created entirely by the kids themselves:

From Group 1 (The K-2nd Graders)
The Hungry Dinosaur and the Lonely Monster

A long time ago in a land far far away lived a town of dinosaurs, talking blueberries, talking trees and . . . monsters. And, they all lived peacefully, well almost peacefully. For some reason no one would talk to the monster . .


From Group 2 (3-5th Graders)
A girl who really likes pizza eats just a bit too much. Find out the lesson that she learns...

PizzaFairies:
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and cauldron bubble.
Eat in moderation or you will find
Something unpleasant growing from your behind

Fruits and veggies are good and nutritious
That doesn’t mean pizza isn’t also delicious.
But, balance it right and you’ll soon find out.
Having a healthy mind, body and soul is what it’s all about.

See you there...
