By the way, Town Square found Chrome to be frustratingly glitchy while Explorer worked just fine.
NYC CMs Stephen Levin and Antonio Reynoso have set aside a total of $2.5 MM for District 33 and District 34 projects, respectively - hey! that's us! Greenpoint & Williamsburg (and certain other parts of Brooklyn and Queens). WE get to choose how to spend this $$! Folks, it's soooo easy: the projects with the most votes, will get the $$. Check out

8th Annual Spring Egg Hunt ~
11 AM Hunt almost sold out! Other hunts going fast!!
Saturday, April 20th, 11 AM - 3 PM
FourFiveSix, 199 Richardson Street (Humboldt corner), Williamsburg, Brooklyn
It's April and our annual Spring Egg Hunt is in just a few weeks! We'll be back at FourFiveSix in Williamsburg, a fun lounge with comfy couches and gorgeous backyard. Simply perfect!
As with past years, we'll have thousands and thousands of eggs. The hunts will be run in groups of 15-20 kids, and everyone will have fun! You'll get to meet the Easter Bunny, enjoy eggstacular craft activities with
The Art Table Studio and faces painted by talented Chico Mitsui of
Hello Face Painting NYC. You'll also rock with
Annie's Music for Kids (11 AM & 2 PM) and
AudraRox (12N & 1 PM). You can have beautiful professional Spring Portraits taken by Sunrise, a wonderful and talented local photographer. Wear your colorful bonnets and join us to welcome Spring!
 Buy your egg hunt tickets quickly! Tickets sold out last year. $15 tickets, with special mommy and daddy tickets for $5. Face painting, Spring portraits and cash bar are extra. The Spring Egg Hunt is a delightful community effort to help two local Boy Scout units: Greenpoint Cub Scout Pack 7 and Williamsburg Boy Scout Troop 26. Wonderful, right?
P.S. If you're looking for a great brunch spot before or after your egg hunt, check out
Ringolevio right next door. A Mediterranean gem to die for. Psst...limited seating.
And please stay in touch with us!
