Letter to the Editor

Dear Editor,


I wanted to thank you for including me in the June article on community leaders “Community Leaders:  Neighbors that Make a Difference.”  I wanted to clarify one point, however.  The article erroneously states that Slippery Fish rented out childcare space from Axis Cafe.  Axis Cafe actually generously provided us with free use of their community space for a year and a half.  In fact, their contributions to our community – which include sponsoring Halloween and Easter parties in Jackson Park – are article worthy.  I’d hate for them not to receive the credit they deserve for contributing to Slippery Fish’s existence.

Slippery Fish has since moved to a new location within Recess Urban Recreation, where we, indeed, rent the space.  But the depth of generosity that Axis showed the cooperative day care facility in providing free space was incredible, and a large part of why we are growing as an organization today.
