"On October 8, to celebrate five years of publishing,
Reasons to be Cheerful
will host the biggest event we’ve ever staged: a live variety show at New York
City’s Town Hall. Alongside a full slate of wacky and whimsical acts, the show
will include a few moments in which we bring to life the kinds of solutions
stories that
RTBC is all about.
One of those moments will highlight the Trust for Public Land’s Community
Schoolyards Initiative. Over the past 30 years, the project has transformed 350
schoolyards across the US into amazing environments for learning, recreation
and community. These spaces benefit the school during the workday, and after
hours, they become a park for the entire community to enjoy.
We spoke with Danielle Denk, senior director of the schoolyards initiative, to
learn more."
Cheers,
