• Rename 31st Street Harbor after Dr. Margaret Burroughs
    We need to demonstrate an overwhelming amount of community - wide support to compliment our request to rename 31st Street Harbor after Dr. Margaret Burroughs. "Naming the 31st Street Harbor for the late Dr. Margaret Taylor Burroughs should be a done deal. Burroughs, who died in 2010 at the age of 93, co-founded the DuSable Museum of African-American History and was known internationally for her art and poetry. She also helped establish the South Side Community Art Center, which brought renowned African-American artists to Chicago’s Bronzeville neighborhood." - Mary Mitchell, Chicago Sun-Times "Black people and white people lost their lives as a result of the events that emerged from 31st Street Beach. This is also an opportunity to have a really educational campaign about a legendary black woman who not only had a great impact in Chicago, but internationally". - Dr. Conrad Worrill, Carruthers Center for Inner City Studies

  • KidZone Summer Drop Off Care
    Many members rely on drop off care at AFF, and it continues to be a significant selling point for membership. Parents utilize these much needed services for work and medical appointments. Busy schedules are sometimes harder to accommodate with the presence of additional school age kids at home. Perhaps a modified schedule for drop off care could be considered if it is not realistic to offer full time care services. In addition, if reduced staffing and increased numbers are a concern, then an advance reservation requirement may alleviate some challenges. I wish AFF continued success in remaining a family centered health club environment, instead of reverting to just another gym.

  • Get Sheba home
    The Humane Society took my dad's dog after he died and won't release her. I'm out of state but have transport ready to bring her home. But they say - no I must adopt her and pay everything my father did years ago. They say he signed a contract that if he could no longer care for her she would be brought back. But we want to raise her as were my dads wishes! Shouldn't they want Sheba to be with her owner's family and have a great home with ones that love her!!??

  • Help the Animals at Six Flags in Vallejo, California Be Sent To Sanctuaries
    I started this petition because after seeing the documentary Blackfish, and hearing about the abuse to the animals at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, I became inspired about wanting to help these defenseless animals. Because I live five minutes from Six Flags, I am constantly reminded of the horrors that are inflicted upon these beautiful creatures.

    The Idaho House has endangered the well being of Idaho children and single parent families. Idaho is at risk of losing millions in federal child support funding and access to federal enforcement tools used to collect interstate child support payments. More than 400,000 parents and children in Idaho benefit from this program. Sign this petition to let your local legislators know this is unacceptable.

  • Protect Cheswick
    Many of us are very concerned about the future development of our Neighborhood. Many of us bought homes in this neighborhood under the premise that it would only have 200 homes in it. Many of us bought premium lots and were told that no homes would be built behind our premium lots. Many of us are concerned about the safety of our children with the increase traffic that this new development will bring down our roads. If you have any of these concerns we need YOU to sign this petition to help protect our neighborhood. We need them to see that our neighborhood is collectively in agreement and we are not backing down! Below is our alternative proposal: 1.Create new traffic patterns to decrease traffic flow away from Ranchester Rd and Hauser Lake. 2.Move the CBU's (mailboxes) out of the pool parking lot and into Phases 2B & 3. 3.No apartments! 4.Tree buffer for those who paid for premium lots.
