From an email forwarded to me:

The Mayor and other agency representatives will lead the walk through in parts of the Rosedale neighborhood to address neighborhood concerns including the Rosedale Recreation Center.

This is very interesting to find out. I live across from Rosedale Rec center. In the last week or so the grounds have been cleaned, fences repaired, back-top painted, wood chips added, massive holes in the ground filled-a complete cosmetic overhaul has taken place. I hope that these great things were done just because they had been left too long and not because the Mayor is coming through. It seems like a big coincidence...

A nice woman stopped me while i was walking my dog to let me know about the event. Of course, at 2:30pm on a weekday, most of us are AT work!

In regards to Rosedale Rec Center, apparently there is a 20 million renovation being planned there. I'm sure, however, that the parks and rec department responded to the news that Fenty was walking through the neighborhood this week!
