You can see everything P4P has done with the help of our city's youth since summer 2007 at the new website...YES!!! The P4P website is up and running now!

the second annual skillshare will be held the last weekend in may, noon to 6 both days, at space 12.

we've got an amazing array of skills planned (see the list at the bottom) and we're also still looking for a few more workshop leaders, especially in the following areas:

-soccer, especially a soccer skills for kids workshop, or a playing soccer *with* kids workshop for kids and adults
-scooter maintenance/riding/safety
-changing the oil in your car, other car maintenance
-accessorizing your bike (decorative or useful stuff)
-chicken keeping/chicken coop building

you don't have to be an expert to teach, just willing to share what you know in a hands-on, accessible manner.

Can you believe it's already upon us? Time goes so fast as you get older.
We'll be throwing our 12th birthday bash at Red 7 (611 E. 7th St.) on
Thursday, May 21st with Austin's own Shearwater headlining. The Theater
Fire (DFW), The Yellow Bike Gospel Choir, and Buttercup (SA) will be
filling out the bill, so mark your calendars now and make sure to ask off
work Friday so you can stay late and enjoy the fun. The revelry begins at
9 pm.

At City Hall (301 W. 2nd Street) on Thursday, May 21, at 6:00 PM, City
Council will vote on the 2009 update to Austin's Bicycle Master Plan. If
you love Austin and you love cycling, please come out to support the plan,
and encourage others to do the same - just like you did when you voted on
Saturday May 9th, right?. There will be at least three group rides to City
Hall, all of which will merge afterwards into a very huge, very short ride
to the YBP birthday bash. For updates, see Jason at www.atxbs.com. If you
can't make it for the actual Council vote, visit City Hall within 72 hours
prior and sign up to "speak on" the plan. You don't actually have to
speak, it's just a show of support. Go through security and then look for

18-year-old Nathaniel Sanders is dead. According to the Austin Police Department, Sanders and two other men were sleeping in a car parked in the complex, when an Austin Police officer approached the vehicle. Police say they suspected the vehicle had been used in recent robberies.

Officer Leonardo Quintana took the man in the driver’s seat into custody, then came back for the other two men. APD says Quintana saw a weapon in Sanders’ lap and shot him. Police say the third individual got out of the car and charged the officer. The officer shot him too - that man is now recovering in the hospital.
