I just attended the Quad Cities Big Table!

Juvenile crime was a topic, and also solved by being a mentor in your neighborhood,

which I've done when I lived in low income housing here in DeWitt,

but I also suggested let them take them take initiative too, our young people,
not sure they agreed, called them, Just kids.

Homelessness was an issue, renovating old buildings and getting people off the streets.

I brought up always looking for Personal Enrichment classes,
and the solution was, even if it's 60 Plus for Seniors, you can still go.
The other suggestion was have a fair like setting with all kinds of hands on booths

to learn, explore and grow.  Almost everyone in the room is or has been a volunteer.

It was enjoyable.

I tried not to get too paranoid with the News Anchor running the table.
