   I’m a young adult turning 26. I have lived in norwich most of my life. I was raised in these neighborhoods and was proud to be apart of the YMCA and also the camp they provided in the summer. These kids are forced to hang out in the streets or wait around for the season for them to engage in sport activities. These kids and teenagers need something to be involved in all year, not just the summer time. If we care about this city and want to see people give back, we need to give them a space to be positive and offer them activities not only in the YMCA but branch out to help other teens in the community to join and take part. Little programs can be implemented as well, like a Home Economics program, A JROTC for those who want to sever their country and can learn respect and follow order at a young age, Leadership program , even something to help clean up neighborhoods for the young adults or teenagers. There’s so many programs we can offer from this. IT SHOULD NOT BE A PARKING AREA!

3. The sidewalks (in the correct place this time)

   After the COVID-19 is all held under control I think we should focus on the sidewalks. I was walking down Williams St. by NFA one day and I tripped and fell and cut open my elbow, it didn't get...
