A Few Pictures

Monday evening I was at a nice event at Bren Mar Park elementary school in Springfield by Landmark Mall. The event, called "Litter to Glitter" was sponsored by Boy Scout Troop 678.

The emphasis for the children was on recycling and to raise awareness about trash and how we can reduce our waste. One of the Scout Masters, Bill Wilson, is in the picture with me. I'm sitting in a Go-Kart made from recycled materials including the wheels from a Baby Carriage.

I was one of four judges and the kids were very creative in their use of materials.

Wednesday morning I was in Crystal City at the staging area for the Crystal Flight. It's a Celebration of Art & Air and 50 decorated planes will hit the streets of Crystal City next week.

In the picture with me are 3/4 of the members of the Crystal City Business Improvement District. They do many functions in order to attract visitors to Crystal City and help local businesses. I have a story and video blog at wusa9.com about the event.
