"Sun Village Park Bird Appreciation Day" was on November 15, 2022. Unfortunately, the park is undergoing major renovations, so it was unsafe for the community to help with this project this year. Jerry Puryear hung new squirrel buster bird feeders. This year larger feeders (2-1/2 pounds of seeds per feeder) were purchased to attract more birds to enjoy the seeds. Jerry hung the bird feeders using chains and locks to secure the feeders. Unfortunately, last year two bird feeders were taken from the park. This is an ongoing project because we enjoy feeding the birds. Our goal is to continue to teach children and their families the importance of bird preservation and appreciation.

Good morning My Beautiful People! Yesterday Jerry Puryear, his great niece Lorri, Miss Francine and yours truly visited Sun Village Park to redecorate the trees and refill the bird feeder. We observed 3 boys on two bikes who we believe were attempting to dump 2 flat screen televisions in the park. When told not to dump, one of them told me to mind my business before he goes and gets his mom. Due to a police situation on Morton Avenue traffic was detoured for a few hours and many people in cars were able to see our beautiful artwork! The children in our communities need to be taught by adults, especially their parents, to love and appreciate parks and keep them clean and beautiful!

On June 29, 2019, we hosted "The Sun Village Park-Children's Paint Party" and WE HAD A BALL! The children painted on T-shirts and canvases to create one of a kind art work for their homes and to wear. We are teaching them how to create cultural items they can sell as entrepreneurs. One t-shirt design had me in tears, because the message read "YOU SHOOT NOW WHAT?" Our children have many stories they want to share with us and we must take time out to listen and give them feedback on how to handle different difficult situations.
We are also teaching them sustainability skills i.e. cooking, sewing, jewelry making, gardening, farming and other necessary skills for them to be able to sustain themselves in a world that doesn't think these skills are important. These are survival skills and must be taught to all children young and old as soon as possible.

On April 29, 2019, Jerry Puryear, our Community Artist from Devon, Pennsylvania, painted our newest ground murals in Sun Village
Park. Together we refreshed the "Butterfly Habitat Garden" with new mulch. I met Jerry in 2017 at a Chester Made event and he and his family have been my devoted friends ever since. Thanks Jerry for all of your dedication to our community projects!
