    Patti Romp's Christmas Trees

    Brooklyn Heights

    Every year, Patti Romp and her son Tim set up their Christmas tree stand on Montague Street in…read moreBrooklyn Heights. They drive down from Vermont the day after Thanksgiving and they stay until Christmas. It really is a wonderful life. When I lived in the neighborhood, I would turn down the corner and see them, beacons in the late November sun. They signal, for me, the beginning of the holiday season: time for the eggnog, the warm woolen sweaters, the Jethro Tull Christmas Album, and a few fingers of scotch or cider at the fire. The happiness I feel when I see them at the beginning of each holiday season is unparalleled to almost anything I have ever felt during the season in all my life. It's akin to the warmth I felt as a young child walking into my grandparents' house half a continent away. My (now ex) boyfriend and I would get our trees from them every year. I remember the first year that we came to know these people. Tim, Patti's son, sat there as we told him what our living room was like. He got a feel for who we were and then selected our tree based on that. He then carried it all the way to the northern Heights for us and set it up. No expectation of any sort of compensation-- just out of the kindness of his heart. He showed us how to care for our tree, and asked us to take a photo of it for him once we had decorated it. Of course, we then always talked to him and his mom whenever we passed them on Montague, which was often. Tim's imaginative and always had funny stories to relay to us about his day. I hope he never loses that spark in his eye. The next year-- after a whole year of not seeing Tim and Patti --we returned, and Tim remembered the exact height and type of tree he had sold us. We of course continued buying from Tim and Patti. Brooklyn Heights has that old world appeal to it. You feel as if you're in a Dickens novel anyway. Yet when you pair the immaculate historic district with Tim and Patti and their trees as celestial white flakes begin to fall, you wonder how you could ever have a bad day again in your life. This year it's just me. I also live farther now-- in Queens. Tim will not be able to carry my tree for me this year. But on the day after Thanksgiving, I will certainly ask him to help me select a nice, smaller one, that I may transport myself.

    I was told on the phone they do not accept used clothing because the ladies would not wear them,…read morebut they would accept name brand and new clothing. Another time I was told that they don't have space. So they have space for new, name brand clothing but not for gently used? Doesn't make sense and something about this is really disturbing. Spin it any way you choose but it feels wrong. I donated everything to another pantry in Brooklyn and everything thing, shoes, clothing, bags, coats was gone in 30 minutes. I also had my daughter pack up all her gently used clothing, teaching her to help those in need but she learned another lesson and I will leave it there.

    What an amazing time I had here today helping CHIPS to serve the community..... it was exactly…read morewhere I needed to be today. I absolutely LOVE to help others so this was definitely my kind of party. The staff was very friendly and nice. To be quite honest, I've never even heard of this place before this event but I'm so glad that I know about it now. I will definitely be back in the near future to volunteer again. CHIPS houses 9 young women who must be 21 years old and over and pregnant in their third trimester and allows them to have a place to stay for one year. They must go back to school and participate with in-house activities. CHIPS offers so much more programs as well. I spoke with Denise who is the executive director about the possibility of me coming back to volunteer with my church and she said that it was fine but I would have to participate in a training class which takes place the second Thursday of each month at 9 am and the last Thursday of the month at 6pm. I had a great time volunteering alongside my fellow Yelpers Peter D, William K, Aura B and Steven S. I'm looking forward to more opportunities like this in the future. Special thanks to Peter D for putting this together and allowing us to give back to the community. Life isn't just about receiving but also giving.
