Annual Community Enhancement Day

Help us bring more health and fun to Playground #9 Clinton Park with Community Enhancement Day

Leader

Rita Jones

Location

Cronota Park Bronx, NY 10457

About the project

We are hosting a Community Enhancement Day to promote playground #9 Clinton park inside Crotona Park to creat an exercise and body building space for everyone in the community. We will also give out school supplies, resource info for families and discuss ways to fix up our park to promote Clinton 9 as a place that can be used for health and wellness in the community.

The Steps

Once we receive the disbursment we will hire people to conduct trainings in the park, buy food, and host our event in August.

Why we‘re doing it

My name is Rita Jones. I've been a community advocate for many years. I want to bring attention to Clinton Playground 9 in the Bronx. This park needs a lot of work because it hasn't been upgraded since it was built. This park could be a great asset to our community. With nothing but basketball courts and an open lot, we thought we'd show it some love. The families here have to take their kids outside of their neighborhood to play. I know that if this park was upgraded it would be used a on daily basis.
