Thank
you.
B
Thank
you
very
much
for
allowing
us
to
be
here
today,
I'm,
going
to
walk
you
through
just
a
brief
presentation
of
what
we
call
my
way
cafe,
which
we
presented
to
you
about
back
in
the
springtime
as
part
of
the
food
nutrition
services
budget.
Hearing.
At
that
time
the
model
was
known
as
hub-and-spoke.
This
is
an
update
on
the
my
way,
cafe
rollout
with
some
exciting
news
regarding
our
latest
wave
of
expansion
over
the
course
of
the
summer.
B
Specifically,
we
rolled
out
the
model
in
four
different
schools
in
East,
Boston,
East,
Boston,
high
school,
the
East
Boston
Early
Education
Center,
the
Patrick
J
Kennedy
School
and
the
Bradley
school.
We
were
very,
very
happy
to
see
the
success
of
the
model
specifically
in
allowing
us
to
achieve
the
goals
listed
in
that
slide
allows
us
to
serve
fresher
food
to
students,
to
achieve
menu
equity,
to
improve
the
dining
experience
and
to
reduce
packaging
waste,
and
the
plan,
as
we
all
know
now,
is
to
expand
the
model
across
the
district.
B
I
want
to
highlight
that
picture
there.
It
seems
somewhat
trivial
in
the
course
of
this
slide,
but
it's
actually
significant
to
the
to
the
the
value
of
this
new
model
for
school
food,
in
that
it
actually
provides
a
menu
every
day
for
students,
whereas
in
the
past
they
did
not
receive
a
menu.
They
just
received
a
prepackaged
food
item.
They
now
can
go
through
a
line
like
students
in
the
larger
cafeteria
schools
and
choose
what
they
want.
It's
hard
to
overstate
the
importance
of
that
and
what
it
means
to
our
students.
B
One
brief
note
on
that:
when
I
was
walking
through
one
of
the
in
our
early
pilots
last
year,
we
overheard
one
of
the
students
say
that
this
was
like
eating
at
the
food
court
at
the
mall.
So
it's
very
exciting
for
the
kids,
the
initial
rollout
provided
some
operational
highlights
and
key
learnings.
We
were
very
happy
to
see
that
participation
increased
on
average
from
7
to
15%
at
the
4
different
sites
that
use
this
model.
B
Last
spring
we
saw
a
less
plate
waste
and
really
what
that
means
is
when
a
student
is
just
getting
a
prepackaged
item,
there
might
be
five
items
on
that
tray
and
they
might
only
like
two
of
them,
maybe
the
only
like
three
of
them
and
a
lot
of
it
gets
thrown
away.
What
happens
now
is
because
they
get
to
choose
what's
on
their
plate
and
what
they
eat
and
less
gets
wasted.
B
Additionally,
we
found
that
training
is
key
for
staff.
This
is
a
very
big
departure
from
the
way
that
staff
used
to
operate
within
our
school
sites,
and
so
we
have
extensive
training
now
that
are
offered
for
that
staff
operating
the
my
way
cafe,
model
we're
also
happy
to
see
and
I'm
sure
Justin
is
happy
to
see
that
there
are
some
cost
efficiencies
with
this
model.
The
food
costs
is
far
less
in
our
my
way
cafe.
B
B
The
food
costs
are
far
less
with
the
my
way
cafe
model
the
labor
costs
are
higher
because
you
need
more
staff
to
administer
the
model
correctly,
but
it
ends
up
being
a
net
positive
in
terms
of
financials
for
the
city
and
lastly,
as
I
can
see
from
the
smiling
faces,
their
children
are
eager
to
make
it
my
way.
That's
again,
why
we
call
it
my
way
cafe
because
they
get
to
choose
what
they
want
on
their
plates
by
the
spring.
B
We're
happy
to
say
that
the
my
way
cafe
model
will
be
operating
in
31
schools
across
East,
Boston,
Roxbury
and
Mattapan.
The
blue
box,
in
the
top
left,
lays
out
those
four
schools
I
mentioned
previously.
We
have
since
expanded
over
the
course
of
the
summer
to
an
additional
27
schools
that
allows
us
to
complete
East
Boston
and
by
complete
I,
now
mean
that
all
of
our
schools
in
East
Boston
will
be
outfitted.
With
the
my
way
cafe
model.
We
also
have
expanded
into
Matapan
and
Roxbury,
as
you
can
see
in
the
parenthesis
in
those
boxes.
B
Next
to
East,
Boston,
Matapan
and
Roxbury
we're
phasing
the
transition
to
the
my
way
cafe
model
at
different
times
of
the
year,
so
as
to
maximize
the
amount
of
attention
we
can
spend
on
each
school
that
rolls
it
out
so
East
Boston
expansion
is
happening
as
we
speak.
The
Otis
elementary
just
began
its
first
days
of
operating
under
the
my
way
cafe
model
this
past
Monday
will
complete
the
East
Boston
schools
through
September
and
October,
and
then
Matapan
will
start
operating
under
that
model
in
November
and
the
Roxbury
schools
will
start
in
January.
B
You're
oftentimes,
taking
a
small
room,
that's
almost
nothing
more
than
a
closet
with
the
cooler
and
a
cash
register
and
turning
it
into
a
kitchen
where
you
actually
have
a
food
service
line
that
students
can
walk
through
to
actually
choose
their
food
items.
Multiple
staff,
greeting
students,
it's
a
big
big
change.
B
I,
want
to
take
the
time
now
to
thank
our
partners
in
the
public
facilities
department
for
orchestrating
that
process
for
folks,
from
City
Hall
leadership
from
the
chief
of
staff,
Dave
Sweeney
to
justin
starett,
to
emma
handy,
the
CFO
to
Pat
Brophy,
the
CEO
and
several
others.
I
also
want
to
thank
Bob
Smith
from
the
bps
facilities
team.
Who
is
completely
integral
in
making
this
happen,
as
well
as
the
generous
support
of
the
Shah
Family
Foundation
for
being
at
the
table
with
us,
every
Thursday
and
weekly
meeting
since
February?
B
B
Although
final
decisions
have
not
yet
been
made
on
the
timing
of
that
rollout
or
the
specific
neighborhoods
that
will
come
next,
I
know
time
the
opportunity
index
I
believe
City
Council
has
had
separate
hearings
related
to
this.
That's
a
new
metric
created
by
a
cross
sector
of
folks
from
inside
and
outside
of
bps.
It's
meant
to
provide
a
rough
gauge
on
the
size
and
the
opportunity
gap
affecting
the
students
in
our
schools,
the
larger
that
number,
the
greater
the
opportunity
gap
and
so
neighbourhoods
with
higher
opportunity
index
scores.
Scores
typically
would
have
higher
needs,
I.
B
Wanted
to
close
out
this
presentation
with
a
few
sample
photographs
of
before,
during
and
after
construction
at
one
of
our
schools.
This
is
the
Adams
Elementary
School
in
East
Boston.
The
pictures
there
on
the
first
slide,
four
before
construction,
show
a
very
vague
base,
very
basic,
bare-bones
kitchen
setup
in
that
school.
Again,
we
really
only
had
a
couple
coolers
in
a
cash
register.
Those
coolers
would
be
stocked
with
a
prepackaged
items.
The
students
would
come
through
that
get
a
prepackaged
meal
that
you
get
a
milk
and
then
go
back
to
the
dining
area.
B
If
you
can
see
in
the
during
construction
photo
one
of
the
bigger
changes
that
had
to
happen
is
we
had
to
remove
that
staircase
in
order
to
create
space,
to
open
that
up
a
little
bit
more
and
create
the
service
lines
that
we
need
in
my
way
cafe
school.
We
also
had
to
do
some
extensive
plumbing
work
along
that
space,
as
you
can
see
along
the
back
wall
and
then,
lastly,
in
the
after
shot
there
in
the
last
slide
before.
B
Excuse
me
before
we
wrap
up
the
presentation,
you
have
it's
still
a
small
space,
but
it's
a
gleaming
new
kitchen
area
complete
with
the
service
line.
That's
as
of
next
Monday
you'll
want
to
transform
the
food
experience
for
the
students
at
that
school.
I
will
pause
there
for
any
questions
on
the
presentation
that
I've
offered
you
before
Justin
lays
out
some
of
the
ideas
behind
the
trust
itself.
Great.
A
B
What
I
can
tell
you
counselor
is
for
the
four
schools
that
launched
the
my
way
cafe
pilot
in
the
spring
time,
their
participation
rates
increased
by
about
seven
to
fifteen
percent,
so
many
of
them
were
already
in
the
sixty
to
eighty
percent
range,
but
they
went
up
to
the
seventy
to
ninety
percent
range.
In
some
cases,
the
rest
of
the
school
district
could
see
from
some
of
the
data
that
we
had
here.
B
Whatever
that
is
slide.
Five,
the
lunch
participation
rate
across
the
rest
of
the
district
outside
of
the
three
neighborhoods
we
focused
on
is
sixty
four
percent
or
hopeful
that
of
what
the
eventual
launch
of
my
way
cafe
in
those
neighborhoods,
which
will
take
a
few
years,
we
may
end
up
getting
higher
than
70
or
75
percent
and
lunch
participation
from
those
schools
great.
A
B
Certainly,
with
the
my
way
cafe,
model
are
seeing
less
waste
because,
as
I
mentioned
before,
students
are
only
putting
on
their
plates
what
they
want
and
they're
not
putting
on
their
plates
what
they
don't.
I
was
at
the
oldest
school
just
yesterday
for
the
second
day
of
their
launch,
and
you
saw
some
students
with
with
plates
full
of
all
sorts
of
different
things
from
the
service
line
and
others
with
just
a
few
items.
B
One
student
said
that
this
is
like
eating
at
a
five-star
hotel
just
wanted
to
share
that
because
it
came
up,
it
doesn't
necessarily
answer
your
question.
I
thought
it
was
a
slight
yes
yeah
and
it
does
look.
It
is
good
food
and
it's
fresh
food
and
students
find
the
food
very
appealing
and
it's
it's
culturally
sensitive
as
well
to
the
students
we
serve.
As
for
the
waste,
I
have
Laura
vana
Vitas
here,
who
is
our
executive
director
of
food
interest
in
services?
B
A
B
Already
have
a
grocery
vendor
that
we've
used
for
years,
not
necessarily
the
same
vendor,
but
we've
we've
had
the
need
for
a
grocer
for
years
and
years
because
of
our
cafeteria
schools
already
and
the
cafeteria
schools
are
already
similar
to
the
MyWay
cafes
schools
and
that
they
have
the
service
lines.
Think
of
the
cafeterias
that
we
have
in
high
schools
in
those
sites
typically
were
not
just
packed
up
and
handing
out
prepackaged
meal
right.
So
we
have
grocers
that
provide
all
of
those
raw
ingredients
to
our
schools.
A
B
A
Oh
and
one
other
question
on
that,
you
said
for
obvious
reasons:
labor
costs
go
up,
but
you
know
not
throwing
away
as
much
better
food
better
product,
most
importantly
for
the
kids
nutrition.
Obviously,
but
when
you
say
it's
kind
of
a
wash,
obviously
we
have
to
hire
more
folks
to
do
the
cooking
and
serving
and
cleaning
and
all
that
are
we
looking
at
a
different
kind
of
budget
for
the
the
food
service
part
of
the
school
budget.
B
The
budget
looks
differently
in
a
my
way,
Cafe
school
than
it
would
in
a
satellite
school.
That's
using
the
prepackaged
food.
It
ends
up
being
a
net
positive,
though
financially,
for
the
my
way
cafe
sites.
Again,
your
your
labor
costs
in
a
mile.
A
cafe
side
are
more
than
your
labor
costs
in
a
typical
satellite
site,
but
the
differential
there
is
less
than
the
differential
that
we
save
in
the
fact
that
food
costs
are
now
cheaper
in
a
mile,
a
cafe
site
because
you're
bringing
in
the
raw
ingredients
then
making
it
from
scratch.
B
C
You
counsel,
CMO
and
I'd
like
to
thank
our
two
two
guests
for
providing
a
lot
of
good
information.
That's
helpful
to
our
students,
I
had
a
couple
questions
of
our
points
on
the
unfunded
shot
prioritizing
the
most
needy
neighborhoods
can
I
after
this
hearing
is
over,
could
I
get
a
copy
of
the
other
neighborhoods
that
are
not
listed
on
this
chart.
Just
my
own
reference
at
some
time,
mm-hmm-
and
you
know
I
just
want
to
thank
you
for
the
work
you're
doing
I
think
this
is
such
a
an
important
program.
C
For
you
know,
thinking
through
this
issue,
I
think
that
I
think
it's
very
important
could,
when
you
continue
this
program,
could
you
also
factor
and
I
know
you
did
mention
culture,
sensitive
communities,
I
represent
a
high
concentration
of
Chinese.
I
also
represent
a
high
concentration
concentration
of
Latino
and
Somalian.
Can
we
also
factor
those
issues
in
as
well
as
as
we
move
forward,
I'm.
C
My
other
point
would
be
I
also
represent
many
schools
that
are
located
right
in
public
housing.
The
Perkins,
the
the
Condon
and
the
Blackstone
is
is
towards
Villa
Victoria
in
the
Cathedral.
But
do
you
have
any
any
type
of
outreach
for
students
that
are
from
public
housing
development
any
way
to
make
it
easier
for
them
to
have
access
to
nutritional
programs
or
is
any
other
special
special
program
factoring
in
their
their
living
situation?.
B
C
Could
we
give
our
students
the
opportunity
to
come
and
to
come
into
a
community
center
so
that
they're
able
to
have
have
a
nutritional,
breakfast
or
awesome
lunch
or
the
family
is
able
to
come
in
and
get
some
nutritional
food
I
think
that
would
be
long-term
I
think
that
would
be
important.
I
just
want
to
see.
If
that's
something
down
the
road,
if
we
could
have
a
conversation
about.
B
Yeah,
we
can
certainly
look
into
that.
One
thing,
I
can
say
too,
is
that
in
the
last
I
believe
two
summers-
City
Hall,
as
well
as
the
bowling
building
and
other
sites-
have
participated
in
the
summer
meals
program
over
the
course
this
summer
for
student,
who
you
know
otherwise
would
have
been
in
school.
But
now
during
the
summer
break
they
still
need
the
food
nutrition
that
we
provide
on
a
regular
basis.
So
we
do
have
that
program
that
we've
done
in
collaboration
with
the
mayor's
office
in
new
urban
mechanics,
yeah.
C
B
C
Please
let
me
know
as
well
again
just
want
to
say
thank
you
to
public
schools,
for
what
you're
doing
I'm
trying
to
give
kids
the
best
opportunity
to
have
nutritional,
a
new
nutritional
meal,
and
it's
the
best
way
for
a
student
to
learn
is
starting
off
the
day
right
with
with
a
good
breakfast.
So
just
want
to
say
thank
you
to
your
staff.
Thank
you.
D
You
again
I
echo
my
colleagues
comments
about
the
work,
especially
I'm
appreciative
of
the
emphasis
on
schools
that
are
the
most
needy
and
probably
the
most
diverse
as
well
in
our
system.
I
think
it
was
wonderful
to
have
them
be
prioritized
for
such
an
innovative
meal
plan
and
I
think
it
really
demonstrates
a
real
dedication
to
all
of
our
students.
I
had
the
opportunity
to
actually
have
one
of
the
meals
I
can
testify
that
they
were
very
delicious,
and
so
I
am
incredibly
happy
to
see
that
this
kicked
off
in
East
Boston.
D
That
is
expanding
and
will
continue
throughout.
All
of
all
of
the
system
in
terms
of
the
I
would
also
echo
councillor
Flynn's
comments.
The
prioritization
excuse
me
about
the
expansion,
if
at
all
possible,
to
after-school
hours
or
to
be
cyf.
The
concept
of
this
in
general
than
my
cafe
and
the
dedication
to
having
fresh,
healthy
meals
for
all
students,
I
think
is
it's
wonderful
and
I
would
love
to
see
if
that's
possible
in
terms
of
just
I'm
I,
don't
know
if
we're
talking
about
the
actual
language
of
the
the
trust
here.
D
I
have
a
question
through
the
maker,
unlike
with
ordinances
which
go
to
government,
ops
and
they're
kind
of
gone
through
and
whatnot.
This
we're
dealing
with
an
establishment
of
a
trust
so
tell
me,
is
this:
it's
just
a
matter
of
an
up
and
down
vote
on
the
floor
on
Wednesday
or
doing
meeting,
or
is
there
any
going
back
and
forth
on
this
language
so.
D
D
E
I
think
the
the
point
and
the
goal
with
the
trustees
on
the
Trust
Fund
was
to
really
reflect
the
construction
and
operational
needs
of
the
program,
not
necessarily
the
policies
and
the
programmatic
decisions.
I
think
that
that
rests
squarely
between
VPS
and
the
schools
themselves
in
the
school
leaders.
This
is
purely
a
almost
functionary
tool
to
just
collect
funds
from
outside
resources
and
then
really
just
redirect
them
back
right
back
into
the
build
I'm.
A
D
Fresh
meals
look
like
what,
in
terms
of
that,
whatever
the
feedback
that
you
may
want
to
consider
having
from
a
student
or
a
parent,
that's
the
only
reason
why
I'm
suggesting
it
the
other
thing
in
line
with
the
suggestion
or
the
questions
that
councillor
Flynn
had
and
myself
was
with
regards
again
on
I
guess
it
would
be
article
3,
section,
3,
3
and
specifically,
it
says,
to
facilitate
serving
fresh,
healthy
meals,
cooked
on-site
in
various
bps
schools.
That's
fine!
A
E
Absolutely
I
can
sort
of
talk
quickly
about
the
cost,
so
the
trust
is
being
set
up
to
accept
essentially
donations
and
equipment
donations
from
outside
entities,
most
notably
the
Shah
Family
Foundation,
who
has
generously
pledged
to
fund
the
majority
of
the
program
itself
in
terms
of
retrofitting
the
spaces
to
get
ready
for
the
my
way
cafe
program,
the
majority
of
the
budget
for
the
program.
Actually,
the
entire
budget
for
the
operation
still
sits
with
bps
in
their
food
and
nutritional
services
line
item
in
their
portion
of
the
budget.
E
So
that's
where
I
think
you'll
have
the
kind
of
gear
lead
discussion
about
how
the
program
is
running.
You
know
how
the
labor
costs
are
running,
how
the
food
costs
are
running
and
how
the
expansion
of
it
and
how
we're
actually
seeing
any
savings
or
if
we
are
seeing
savings,
that's
the
majority
of
it.
The
the
trust
itself
really
focuses
purely
on
upgrading
the
facilities
to
get
ready
for
the
program
right.
E
So,
on
a
yearly
basis,
it's
really
gonna
depend
on
the
schools
that
are
up
and
running
so
this
past
year
we
did
15
schools.
There
was
a
capital
cost
associated
with
that
we
are
finalizing.
What
that
will
be.
There
is
at
least
been
over
a
million
in
equipment
donations
that
we're
expecting
that
are
sort
of
going
to
go
into
the
schools,
and
we
sort
of
expect
a
substantial
financial
investment
as
well
from
some
of
those
outside
foundations,
most
notably
the
shot
foundation.
Do.
E
E
So
we
essentially
went
through
the
construction
process,
as
John
mentioned
in
August,
so
we're
still
finalizing
with
our
contractors.
What
the
final
numbers
are.
We
have
some
preliminary
bids,
but
I
wouldn't
want
to
mislead
the
council
and
sort
of
have
those
numbers
out
there
to
prematurely,
because
we're
still
trying
to
finalize
the
punch
list
and
sort
of
getting
the
final
contracting
costs.
No.
D
E
D
B
B
To
clarify
a
couple
of
points
when
I
was
talking
about
the
model
being
cheaper
I
mean
operationally
would
be
cheaper.
That's
not
factoring
in
the
construction
costs
related
to
actually
converting
the
site
to
be
coming
in
my
way,
cafe
site
that
I'm
strictly
talking
about
the
financials
of
Windows
operating
compared
to
how
its
operating
today,
without
that
it's
hard
to
speculate
what
the
budget
would
be
looking
forward,
because
it's
highly
highly
dependent
on
what
the
individual
schools
needs
are.
B
This
past
summer
we
had,
we
had
some
sites
that
required
nothing
more
than
just
taking
out
an
old
oven,
putting
in
a
new
oven
and
in
converting
a
couple
pieces
of
equipment
very
little
cost
there.
Aside
from
the
cost
of
the
equipment,
we
had
other
sites
like
the
Adams
that
I
showed
you
that
would
cost
hundreds
of
thousands
of
dollars
because
of
the
level
of
construction.
B
That's
required,
and
we
don't
really
know
what
the
cost
of
each
site
are
going
to
be
until
we're
deep
in
the
weeds,
through
public
facilities
process
on
actually
estimating
those
costs
and
doing
the
full
review
of
the
design
through
that
kind
of
arduous
process.
So
it's
it's
hard
to
even
speculate.
What
a
budget
would
be
for
the
rest
of
the
school
district,
what
we
would
need
to
raise
within
the
trust
so
on
and
so
forth
and
I
think
if
we
did,
it
would
probably
be
somewhat
misleading
inaccurate.
A
I
just
wanted
to
add
something
because,
for
example,
the
Gardner
School,
which
wanted
to
be
included
in
this
program
and
pretty
much
has
a
fully
functional
kitchen.
I,
don't
know
if
they
comply
with
everything
needed
to
actually
run
a
probe,
they're
feeding
their
own
kids
right
now
with
that
kitchen.
A
D
Yeah
so
I
guess,
if
we
don't
know
where
we're
aiming
towards,
we
know
what
we
want
to
get
done,
but
we
don't
know
in
terms
of
financially
where
we're
aiming
towards.
Is
it
the
city's
position
that
we
will
no
matter
what
have
the
funding
for
it
because
of
the
Shaw
foundations
going
to
give
us
a
blank
check
or
I.
E
Think
that
this
is
a
defined
priority
of
the
mayor
and
that
we
will
do
everything
within
our
power
and
within
the
constraints
of
our
existing
capital
plan
to
fund
the
program,
but
is
it
is
our
expectation
that
the
majority
of
the
capital
costs
associated
with
this
will
come
from
philanthropy,
whether
it's
the
Shaw
Foundation
or
someone
else,
I?
Think
it's
something
that
we're
going
to
have
to
see
exactly
to
John's
points.
E
If
we
decide
to
do
ten
schools
next
year,
as
opposed
to
eighty
schools,
that's
a
different
cost
of
what
we're
trying
to
raise
so
I
think
that
it'll
be
a
little
bit
of
a
combination
of
the
two
and
I
think
as
we
get
through
next
year's
capital
plan,
that'll
sort
of
dictate.
What
exactly
the
city's
portion
is,
if
anything
versus
what
is
philanthropic.
F
Thanks
for
having
me
sorry,
I'm
late
I
was
listening.
I
know,
council
Flynn
had
asked
a
lot
of
questions
that
I
was
going
to
ask
so
I'll
review
those
and
get
those
answers.
I'm,
not
gonna,
repeat
everything.
The
two
state
really
statements
I.
First,
when
you
start
to
expand
when
you
get
into
like
my
district
I'd
love
to
be
involved
in
working
with
you
to
help
choose
a
school
work
with
the
with
the
staff.
F
There
I've
got
great
relationships
with
all
the
principals
in
district
5
and
I
to
be
nice
to
be
involved
in
that
process.
So
I,
you
know
I
hope.
You
include
me
on
that
I.
Don't
think
you
would
leave
me
out
and
then
secondly,
really
just
a
thank
you
to
the
SHA
foundation,
because
it's
not
a
really
sexy
thing
to
do.
To
give
you
know
inner-city
kids,
fresh
food
and
there's
a
lot
of
other
philanthropic
that
may
get
a
lot
more
bang
for
the
buck
than
this
and
stepping
up
to
the
plate
like
this
is
important.
F
A
A
You
know,
I
think
we
should
look
at
that
for
the
summer
programs
because
they
think
right
now
we're
pre
packaging
food
for
four
campers,
for
example
the
Jackson
man
and
my
district
runs
a
very
extensive
camp
throughout
the
summer.
It's
you
know
six
week
program,
they
provide
food.
If
that's
a
hub
father
before
bps,
you
know
we
might
want
to
look
at
just
using
it
through
the
summers
too.
Right
but
again,
I
know
you're
worried
more
about
bps
at
this
point,
but
it
should
be
something
that
we
look
at
to
expand
throughout
the
year.
B
B
No
matter
what
income
level
the
family
has,
we
would
have
to
navigate
those
waters
very,
very
close
at
hand
with
the
state
so
as
to
be
sure
that
if
we
did
roll
it
out
to
non
BPS
sites
during
non-school
hours,
for
example,
summer
programming
that
we
could
still
be
reimbursed
for
it,
otherwise
the
funding
model
would
look
very,
very
different
than
how
it
does
today.
That's
where
we
would
have
to
be
most
careful
right.
A
And
I'm
glad
you
pointed
that
out,
but
I
also
know
that
that
summer
program
is
reimbursed,
maybe
differently,
but
it's
also
free
and
available
to
any
young
person
in
the
city
of
Boston,
whether
they
actually
go
to
a
camp
or
not
so
I
appreciate.
You
know
you
keeping
your
eyes
focus
on
bps,
but
we
should
be.
You
know,
making
the
most
of
these
facilities
if
they're
going
to
be
up
and
running
in
the
near
future.
