TenderBridge

So I met up with Noel Acton on Wednesday at the Daily Grind and spoke for several hours.

Noel Acton, retired and single living in Towson has opened up his life to the young boys of Baltimore city with "the most need."

He uses sports as the medium of cohesion along with general leisure which many of us just do, but become such crucial deficiencies in the lives of his "boys."

Bill, currently playing baseball (and Simon) turned him on to me through a request for volunteers for a sailing program out at Rocky Point Park. A stunning location and an opportunity to sail and generally play in the open waters of the chesapeake bay in the heat of baltimore summer!

Some Loyola University students made a 45 minute docu of The Tender Bridge. View a 10 minute version of it on youtube:

A Fighting Chance


Welcome to my city: the Good, Bad, and Indifferent.
