NEW YORK CITY’S ONLY ALL-GIRLS SOCCER CLUB
Tryouts for Gotham Girls Football Club, dedicated to the development of girls as soccer players, are happening May 11-12. Our coaches instill a love of the game, develop the girls as unique players, prepare them to compete at the highest level, and help them reach their full potential as players, students, and people. If you can’t make this week’s events, you can come the first two weeks in May to check out the club and try out. For more information, and to register for a tryout date, visit gothamgirls.org. Also, we’re now starting a soccer class for boys and girls age 2-5 on Sundays at the P.S. 276 gym; the details are here. Sponsored.

SOME IMPROVEMENT AT THE FIVE BORO BIKE TOUR
Anecdotally, last weekend’s Five Boro Bike Tour appears to have been a bit less bothersome than in recent years, but there were still complaints, and a resident measured the noise with a sound meter.
