Good Evening to one and all,

Hoping that your summer has been a time to relax and enjoy the beach, picnics, camping or just hanging out in our neighborhood, we're also hoping that you've saved some energy for a couple of events that we're sponsoring. This is Officer Will from District 13 in JP and I'm inviting one and all to come join us this Friday, July 29th, from 5:00p.m. - 8:00p.m. at the YMCA in Egleston Square for our local Neighbors Night Out 2011 Celebration. There will be family activities, games, performances, facepainting, Brazilian drummers, D.J. and "food". This is a great event that helps to solidfy the core values that makes JP great and we are excited about partnering with Egleston Sq Main streets, Teen empowerment, the YMCA, Franklin Park Coalition, Boston Police Athletic League and JPNDC. We are expecting this year to be bigger and better than ever, so PLEASE, come and hang out with us at the "Y".

And as if that wasn't enough...
