It seems like Phillyblog is the only place to get an idea of what is going on at the Northwood Civic Association. Might be worthwhile attending the meeting on June 19th to see what is going to happen. http://www.phillyblog.com/philly/showthread.php?t=38630

Harding students earn praise for Holocaust project
From the Northeast Times:
“No pictures, just voices tell the story of the Holocaust — voices of Warren G. Harding Middle School students entwined with the haunting, heart-wrenching voices of the survivors themselves in an award-winning podcast. Eighth-graders Adriel Carrasco, Edward Foley, Lee Martin, Sarina McDuffy and Bria Waters volunteered to work on the podcast (a digital audio broadcast file played back on a computer or MP3 player) when reading teacher Victoria Monacelli told them about the Mordechai Anielewicz Creative Arts Competition.”
