Children have a safe place to play sidewalk games, play arts and crafts, and learn to jump Double Dutch rope this summer, thanks to the Police Athletic League.
The “play streets” are conducted in various parks around the borough, and offer children workshop activities, including arts and crafts, Nok Hockey, hopscotch, and cultural arts.
Workshops are free and open from July 8 to Aug. 23, Monday through Friday, from 9 am to 5 pm (no programs on July 26).
Participating parks include Cpl. Thompson Park at Broadway and Henderson Avenue in Mariner’s Harbor, The Big Park at Continental Place and Grandview Avenue, and Bowen Street Park at Sobel Court and Roff Street in Tompkinsville.
Check our calendar listings for addresses of each location.
