The state of CT awarded STEAP grants to small towns including $500K for a transfer station for Salisbury and Sharon. Many towns have received money for upgrades while cities have been deemed deficient in basic school services. How might citizens advocate for a more of a balance with creative solutions that meet the needs of both parties, towns and cities and share the joys and burdens of rearing youth and being community?

That's a lot of ka-ching, now if we could only invite a few hundred kids from under-served areas to attend school here...that would help balance the discrepancies.

( Verse 1) People sharing a picnic, flying kites on a hill.  Hear the children laughing, their spirits soaring still. (Chorus) 

See the leaves a changin'. Soon the cold winds will blow. Winter's surely coming yet surely it will go! (Chorus)

Gather round the fire, winter, summer or fall.

I would hope we could all find Five Golden Minutes for Peace at Nine am, at Noon, at 3pm, at 6pm and at 9 pm and midnight (should you be up that late) and even carry it over to Tomorrow at 6 am and 9am to cash in that Full Day of
