We will need some help this year putting our block party together. If you would like to be involved please review the list and comment below or email coordinator Lina — linarose@earthlink.net — to let us know what you can do.
Even if you can’t volunteer we hope to see you there. This is a great time to eat, laugh and get to know your neighbors. There will be plenty of kids activities and we always close it down with a campfire and s'mores!
