To the Honorable, the Common Council : GENTLEMEN-I have the honor herewith to submit to your Honorable Body my Annual Report concerning the care of the Parks and Parkways of the City of Brooklyn and of the County of Kings, which have been under my charge during the year 1895. There have been more than the usual developments in the way of care and improvement of the parks, and in addition there has been an acquisition of property which doubles the area of park lands existing at the beginning of the year, thus placing the city somewhat on a par with other great cities of the country. Steps have also been taken in the direction of increas- ing the pleasure drives, and the County now owns nearly all the property needed for the creation of the most charming drive in the world-the Hay Ridge Parkway, or, as it is popularly called, the Shore Drive.

    Dear All: October 10, 2014 Please note: There will be no eblast next week as we ALL will be at York (I hope). It seems every time I walk into a store there is a new theme being displayed, it’s gone from the Fourth of July to Christmas, not sure where the time has gone! We hope you will visit the WB&A table at York (by the registration counter). The hours will be posted on the table so that you can stop by and say hello, pay your 2015 dues (then have a chance at the $100 drawing), take a chance on the drawing (see below) and let us know how we’re doing. The attached flyer reminds us that we have warriors coming home and many (too many) still abroad who defend and protect the U.S.A. No matter what your political views may be, I hope you can take the time to partake in this event. As a reminder, the eblasts and attachments will be placed on the WB&A website under the “About” tab for your viewing/sharing pleasure http://www.wbachapter.org/index.html. The attachments are contained in the one PDF attached to this email in an effort to streamline the sending of this email and to ensure the attachments are able to be received. TRAIN STORIES BY CLEM CLEMENT I hope you have been enjoying Clem’s York stories, attached is another story from Clem regarding STOMPER. Enjoy! Also, as those of us who know Clem and for those of who don’t, I KNOW you have heard of the mighty STOMPER – in Clem’s words: From time to time, the truthful stories about STOMPER’s exploits come to life from his hideout on goiunkland 34.1(Located in the shadows of history, just past the time/speed location of Eve’s first words...).
