Five Things: South End Baseball Supporter Wins New York Trip

1. Cloudy skies with a chance of showers and thunderstorms in the morning...then turning partly sunny in the afternoon. Humid (of course) with highs in the lower 80s.

2. Congrats to South Ender Aaron Keesbury, whose family will be heading to New York for a Red Sox/Yankees game courtesy of . Keesbury was the Grand Prize winner of a raffle held to support South End Baseball this season. Mt. Washington Bank donated the trip and has donated more than $50,000 to the organization over past years.

3. Employees from Fidelity Investments will be giving the Dearborn Middle School a makeover on Thursday. More than 400 volunteers will be painting walls, repairing display cases, reorganizing the school library, installing a mural and developing a College and Career Zone and Teacher Resource Room in the Roxbury school. We'll have photos from the event later this week.

4. What do you think: should dogs be allowed in the court room? Interesting New York Times story on the subject here.

5. Did you hear the commotion yesterday at Titus Sparrow Park? United South End Settlements hosted a Hokey Pokey Flash Mob and lots of other fun activities for kids. We'll have photos from the event up later this morning.
