I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! June is National Ice Cream Month! So be sure to visit some of the local establishments here in BedStuy for some ice cream.
I’m sad to say that one of our favorite Bedford Stuyvesant establishments….Bread Stuy has closed its doors. When Val’s Word! first began 5 years ago, my goals were to foster community ties and support local businesses. Today those goals still stand true. So while Bread Stuy has said goodbye… we say hello. Hello to the new businesses that are opening their doors in Bed Stuy. Hello to the existing businesses that are weathering the storm.
I continue to encourage you all to support local businesses in Bed Stuy, Brooklyn.
You can also look forward to Val’s Word! appearing back in your mailboxes! So we are online, email blasted AND delivered door to door.
Our motto stays remains the same, “No Story is Too Small” so feel free to email me with the stories you would like to see in Val’s Word! Email me at val@valsword.com.
Val’s Word! is your local newsletter and now a book publishing company too! We will be accepting submissions in the Winter of 2011.
And as always,
Keeping you informed,
Valarie Carey
