Wow this brings back memories….

Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on September 23, 2001 by Streetplay DiscussionsFebruary 16, 2019

Wow this brings back memories. In the 60s I lived in the Pink Houses projects off of Linden Blvd & Crescent St.My building was on Stanley Ave. I remember using chalk to make a Skully Court in the playground. I also remember the smell of melting crayons. I would put crayons in a baby food jar ( it could take the heat) and hold it over the stove to melt the wax. I loved filling bottle caps for Skully. I remember the pride we had in our wax filled caps. Sort of like a badge of honor. I can still smell the melting wax right now! This is a great walk down memory lane. Doubt that anyone in Tampa (home) would know what Skully is.

Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on September 19, 2001 by Streetplay DiscussionsOctober 18, 2014

In York PA this coming Saturday Sept.22-01 we are having a fundraiser/stickball event. We are having other games too, such as boxball, jacks, jumprope, yo-yos, and of course Marbles. Spalding hopefully is donating the pink balls-either way they are the best, so come out and join us for a great time-food-knishes while they last, root beer floats, old fashioned candy-hoola hoop etc. This event is held at an old shopping center Called Ames on East Market street across from another shopping center, which has Lowes and Giants in it. Thank you Nancy Costa

Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on September 16, 2001 by Streetplay DiscussionsNovember 19, 2014

Sight is great, will be a wonderful place to go back to my youth. Looking foward to seeing the rules from the various sections of the city posted. Looking forward to finding a lot of the guys I grew up with. See a lot of them at the shore, but many have moved away, and would love to renew old relationships. Still play halfball on a regular basic, even started selling them on to other guys who are to old to climb roofs, or hang in sewers. Feel free to contact me for information Polish of Logan

Streetplay Discussion Archive Posted on September 12, 2001 by Streetplay DiscussionsSeptember 12, 2001

To all my fellow New Yorkers, family, friends, and everyone in our melting pot of unified diversity: my love and prayers are with you all. We have always been there for each other, sometimes in spite of each other. We have grown up schooling, “playing” and incorporating our individual and cultural uniqueness with everyone else’s to create “the New Yorker!” We will get through this, because we are the mirror of the world. Everyone in the globe can look at us and seem themselves in the mix. I love you all, and pray for your safety and well-being.
