Councilmember Tim McOsker, in partnership with the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, Mayor Karen Bass, the Watts Labor Community Action Committee, and the East Side Riders Bike Club, will launch a door-to-door water testing awareness campaign aimed at engaging residents across Watts.
The Los Sentinel Newspaper’s rear parking lot area was the host of the Golden State Foods Foundation (GSFF) and Brotherhood Crusade’s Build a Bike Program on Saturday, July 8.
Members of the East Side Riders Bike Club said their one part of their mission is to provide opportunities to vulnerable kids in South Los Angeles by steering them in a new direction. The ten year old volunteer organization has been doing work in South L.A. and Watts that focuses on keeping kids off drugs and from gangs through recreational activities, specifically bike riding said president John Jones III via his website esrbc.org. But just as important as keeping youth away from destructive activities, is the other part of their mission, to steer kids toward activities that help them enrich the communities in which they live.
