Brooklyn, New York residents affected by Hurricane Sandy piled into The Gerritsen Beach School, PS 277, on a recent Saturday for a day of healthy fun sponsored by Children’s Health Fund, Heart 911, Gerritsen Beach Cares, and the New York Innovative Theatre Awards. Funding from Children’s Health Fund’s Hurricane Sandy Relief Fund helped make the day possible.
The cold rain outside did not dampen enthusiasm in the community as more than 300 residents of all ages showed up for games, giveaways, arts and crafts, health information, and a hot lunch catered by Gerritsen Beach’s own Brenman’s Market.
