 Happy Summer from Stuyvesant Plaza!
 
In July we celebrate Independence Day. It's also the time for summer fun, vacations and the outdoor activities we've been waiting for all year.  The shops at Stuyvesant Plaza can accomodate many of your summer needs. 
 
For summer reading, look no further than The Book House and The Little Book House. Their helpful staff can provide reading suggestions no matter what your interests.
 
If you need supplies for a classy summer event, check out Pearl Grant Richman's picnic baskets, table clothes and party invitations.
 
EATS Gourmet Marketplace will pack you a box lunch or dinner for a concert on the lawn at SPAC or Tanglewood, or they can cater a party and save you the cooking.
 
The Pottery Place will be having summer camp programs for kids. Even for those not enrolled in camp it's a great place to go on a rainy day, or to beat the heat.
 
EMS has kayaks for sale and rent, as well as gear for climbing, water sports, biking and camping. They can fit you up for all sorts of outdoor activities. Don't forget CVS for suntan lotion.
 
Visit Stuyvesant Photo for the new camera and accessories you need for your vacation photos; The Toy Maker is the place for travel toys to entertain the kids while on the road. Their staff can point out the latest toys and games for all ages, without a video game in sight.
 
And, don't forget our 2nd Semi-Annual Sidewalk Sale will be held on Saturday, August 2 from 9:30 am to 6:00 pm.

Plaza Fitness AwardPlaza Fitness at Stuyvesant Plaza is proud to have received the 2008 Achievement Award for Recreation Provider of the Year, from the New York State Developmental Disabilities Planning Council (DDPC). 
 
According to the DDPC website, the Council's Achievement Awards Program "is designed to recognize the exceptional accomplishments and contributions of New Yorkers with developmental disabilities and to acknowledge individuals and/or organizations throughout New York State who have been trailblazers in the field of developmental disabilities."  
 
Plaza Fitness has been committed to providing a welcoming, supportive environment for healthy activity since its opening in 2003.  "This award just reinforces that we're doing the right thing by trying to strip the intimidation factor away from our fitness facilities," said owner Korey McCoy.  "Having a comfortable environment and providing a highly individualized, professional, educated approach to exercise recommendations really cements our belief that absolutely any person, in any condition, can benefit from coming to our specialized fitness center."

Creo 
Creo'the new restaurant being built to replace Mangia at Stuyvesant Plaza, will open with a new chef and manager. Chef Andrew Plummer and manager Paul McCullough will leave McGuire's in Albany. Plummer will be Executive Chef of Creo' and McCullough, the restaurant's General Manager.

"With them we think we've got the best chef in the entire area (and) the best front-end person in the entire area," said David White, a principal and developer of the new restaurant.

A late-September opening is expected for Creo'. The restaurant plans to target a larger market than McGuire's, with more diners experiencing progressive food, stylish presentation and service with panache,  but at lower prices.

 romantic
With the summer months upon us many of us are gearing up for vacations. Remember to show your appreciation to those you enlist to hold down the fort while you are away. Instead of waiting until the end of the trip, show your appreciation during your absence.
 
If you have someone staying at your house while you're away, leave a floral arrangement with a thank you card in a prominent spot where they'll find it when they arrive. Arrange to have flowers delivered from Fido and Whiskers for your pet sitters to thank them for their help. For a friend or neighbor keeping an eye on your house and watering your garden, buy a plant for them to take home and attach a note thanking them for keeping your plants looking great.

Letting your friends know how much you appreciate all they're doing this year ensures that you'll be able to ask them again next year!
