Touch-A-Truck this Weekend!

This is quite possible the coolest fundraiser we've ever heard of and even though it's a little out of our vicinity (South Slope) we had to share this because it looks worth the short subway or bus ride.  PS 295, which is on 18th Street between 6th and 7th avenues, is putting on "Touch-A-Truck".  It is exactly what it sounds like.  They'll have 25 vehicles that kids can climb in, including a school bus, garbage truck, ambulance and more! The operators will also be there to answer any questions. For more info check out this site.

PS 38 Spring Carnival Tomorrow.

This spring carnival sounds like a lot of fun and it's for a good cause, of course, the PTA at PS 38.  The sign lists pony rides, an obstacle course and giant slide as just a couple of activities.  And there will also be food and raffles.  If you'd like to stop by it will all be happening at the PS 38 schoolyard, that's 450 Pacific Street between noon and 5pm tomorrow.
