68th Precinct goes gold
With a lavish gold ribbon on its front door, the 68thPrecinct in Bay Ridge joined a local movement that’s been spreading around the neighborhood like wildfire – going gold to mark Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
As the monthly meeting of the precinct’s community council wound down, on Tuesday, September 16, cops and members of the council headed outdoors with local pediatric cancer advocates to post Go Gold Bay Ridge signs on the glass doors of the station house, at 333 65th Street.
The effort was started by Bay Ridge Cares in support of the Gold World Project, begun by New Hampshire dad Tony Stoddard, whose son Cole died at the age of five from Neuroblastoma.
