Penn’s Chinese Music Society is holding their annual spring concerts on Saturday and Sunday from 6:30 p.m.-8 p.m. in the Bodek Lounge in Houston Hall (3417 Houston Hall) on Penn’s campus.  Fifteen percent of the proceeds from the “Resonance of Spring” concert will go to the Japan Relief Fund.

Tickets for the concert are $7 at the door, $5 if bought from a vendor on Locust Walk this week or $4 for groups of five or more.

Organization is in the works for a cooperative cleanup of Cedar Park (50^th and Baltimore) on Saturday from 10 a.m. to noon. Cedar Park Neighbors is sponsoring the event with help from the West Philadelphia Cooperative School and the University City District. Free coffee, juice and snacks will be available for those who help out.

A few scholarships still remain for the Neighborhood Bike Works summer cycling camp. Half of camp spots go to scholarship recipients ages 8-12.

Based out of the Neighborhood Bike Works shop at 3916 Locust Walk behind the St. Mary’s Episcopal Church, the summer camp offers kids the chance to rebuild a bike and earn a bike, helmet and lock over a two-week session. The camp also includes rides and field trips and instruction on safe cycling, nutrition and healthy lifestyles.

The camp, now in its ninth year, runs Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. and there are four two-week sessions available. The sessions begin on July 5, July 18, August 1 and August 15. Only scholarships slots remain for all camp sessions. The fees for campers normally run $425 to $450 per session.

A half-day session is also available at the North Philly Neighborhood Bike Works shop.

As always, please pass this along to block groups in that area, and check yards, alleyways, under porches, basements, etc.

My neighbor just found a very friendly male cat. This kitty wandered into his house, near 48th/Baltimore. He’s a skinny guy, pale orange w/whitish chin, long-haired, bobbed tail (actually looks like it could have been cut off). It appears he’s already neutered. If you know of anyone who’s lost a kitty like this, please get in touch w/me. No photo.
