No Fire, Thank Goodness

September 21, 2009 by Elizabeth Weise

It smelled like BBQ for awhile this afternoon on the 600 block of Chenery. But it had just a hint of grass fire as well, and that was enough to bring four fire engines and a chief’s van racing to make sure. They blocked traffic at Chilton and Thor and a good dozen fire fighters raced up and down the street — sniffing.

In the end, two somewhat perplexed women came out of a house in the 600 block and said they had their grill going, but there was no fire.

But there’s something comforting about the rapid response. If there had been, it would have been out like that. Not a bad thing at all.

Fire trucks respond on Chenery.

Congratulations to Sunnyside Elementary School for being awarded with a Glen Park Association Community Grant!
With that grant they were able to print a copy of The Ray for every student and staff at Sunnyside. The Ray, the school’s art and literary journal has been in publication for 17+ years.
🎥 This year’s theme is FILM, and students wrote scripts, designed movie posters, and painted Hollywood stars.
⭐️Glen Park Library, 2825 Diamond Street, features STARS made by Kindergarten classes, depicting their own Hollywood Walk of Fame.

See this and other student artwork from The Ray around Glen Park throughout the summer!
Visit @bello.coffee.sf and @thestrandsalon.sf for more art from Sunnyside Elementary!
