Deal web-site for European Expats and Europhiles!

BunchOP (derived from Bunch Of People) is a new website for Europhiles in New York. Another deal website?

Not really, this one is really different as offers are targeted for European and Europhiles living in NYC.
You will find European best spots in the big Apple. Some examples: Charcuterie, Tarte Flambee, Mozart's Requiem, City Winery or well known beauty salons.

Deals are sweetened by a bit of back story on the provider that will make you feel like you are supporting local business, while a witty blog delivers a fresh European perspective on New York life.

CityKinder - Super Soccer Stars Class starting June 10th!

CityKinder partnered with Super Soccer Stars to offer soccer classes for toddlers & preschoolers age 3-5. During the 50 minutes class, parents have the opportunity to mingle on the sidelines while the little ones having fun in the sun learning basic techniques and team skills. 

Super Soccer Stars teaches soccer skills in a fun, non-competitive and educational environment. Through an age-specific curriculum, classes use soccer to nurture, build self-confidence and develop teamwork. Low child-to-coach ratios and positive reinforcement ensure that each child improves at his or her own pace while having a blast.

We are starting with a 4 weeks spring session Sundays in Central Park and plan to offer additional times and locations based on demand. 

When: Sundays, June 10th to July 1st, 2012

Where: Central Park West, entrance at 86th Street

Tuition: $120 for 4 weeks
