Children 's There are approximately 80 children using CC in all
Corner four schools. They are now open in the morning at
Mamaroneck Avenue and Central and, hopefully, Chats-
worth soon. The program is about to be licensed.
Teen Canteen A committee of kids and adults has met twice. They
are researching a teen facility in Greenwich.
Youth Advocate Normal teen programs are functioning well so attention
is being focused on needs not being met. One is the
motel kids when the teen programs are not running.
Possible solutions include on-site play equipment,
and pool/ice rink passes. Another concern is home-
bound senior citizens who need day care. Possibly
senior citizen groups could help.
The Town Bubble Committee is looking into an enclosed
building. A motion was passed that CFY request a
community building to be made part of the bubble
enclosure.
