The days are noticeably shorter. I have been caught up in the adult drudgery of chores of home stuff, seeing kids in droves using the city pool across the street. I felt pangs of envy, while also wishing them happy swims, and ice creams cones.  School starts in a few weeks, and that seems unfair. If you are a kid, and really think about it, school ends in June and resumes in August, so July is really the true break month.  Enjoy what time is left, kids.

Have your children understand what it means to protect themselves from the elements.

REALNEO may get snarky--but it's worth remembering that this site originated as part of the effort to save a whole generation of kids in NEO.

Only--here we don't call them kids...we call them..."fund for our economic future."

How are WE doing NEO?  RealNEO is still here and still trying...

YOU can make a difference--please attend and make your concerns heard--this coming Tuesday, August 10th at the Martin Luther King Branch of the Cleveland Public Library--hearing starts at 4:30 p.m.  See link:
