Hi Kerri,
As always, I am impressed by your dedication to the kids of Asbury
Park. Changing a city does not come from the hands of developers, it
comes from the dedication and work of those who love where they grew
up and their desire to make a difference.
I am too far away to mentor in person, however, that has not stopped
me yet from caring about the kids in Asbury Park.
Please contact me, especially with regard to your musician. Mr.
Marine science has a great career ahead of him, if you can find a way
for me to help, I will, I don't know all about sealife, but I do have
some experience.
This is a honorable effort. I am sure that you have aspiring
journalists, biologists, artists, historians, preservationists,
scientists and electronic specialists under tow. I am only naming a
few.
I encourage you to compile a list of all of the childrens interests
and share them in this forum. This group might seem like a
collection of oddities, but there is a LOT of knowledge here. I
agree with you that sharing knowledge with our successors can make a
huge difference.
Thank you, Kerri for the good that you do.
Glenn
