There is a set of train tracks that run right through the middle of a field on Ann Street in West Chicago, IL. There are houses on both sides of this field. There is no fencing or warning signs around the tracks. Two years ago, a girl was killed by a train. We are working on getting our town to put up fencing and warning signs around these tracks so nothing like this can happen again.

The PORTA CmPS created a community art galley called "The Prairie Palette." It showcases local artists who may have otherwise been undiscovered. It provides an open venue for those artists who do not have the means or cannot afford to display their artwork. The team raised $20,000 to renovate an office building to
open an art friendly place.
