Councilman Myers Leads Outing for Ward 9 Children
More than 500 children from Ward 9 joined an outing organized by Councilman Aaron KE Myers at Waverley Oaks. The event drew Hebrew Irish and Italian youths with 200 tickets, many without, as cars ferried youngsters to the park. Officers struggled to keep peace while gardens and orchards were watched over, and snacks and tonics were distributed. Myers hoped for another excursion in a few weeks, praising the day as a success and noting the children’s limited contact with grass and nature.
