Street party

The Maplewood Street and park party will take place September 13th. It will also be a grand opening of our newest park Salty Dips. The Politicians have been invited and it is shaping up to be a fun day. It is from 1:30-4:30, with a rain day the Sunday after. We are going to need people to bring some garbage cans and tables. We are going to use Kaled Street this year along with the new park.

Glow signs has been contacted and we have a large bounce apparatus booked at $375. The choice was slim, because they are very booked. Ron may bring his basketball shoot and we will get some prices to give out. Along with the new park this should be plenty of entertainment. No bake off this year, we found participation was down last year.

AGM

We are booking the AGM this year at the Wesleyan Church this year. The $100 we paid for the fire hall last year would be put towards the street party. Melanie was checking with Told, which times were good for him, and he has corresponded and said the first week of November. Michele has asked Jane to look into the Church. Once the date has been picked we will start to advertise.

There has been some interest in positions from some of the neighbors. This is wonderful! We need some new blood to come aboard. Paul is moving out of the subdivision and some members have been involved for very long times, to make sure everything continues forward.

Mic Mac Park

This park had some people complain that it was getting in rough shape. They contacted the city and Gary Meade gave them $25,000 and a book to see what they would like to replace it with. We do not know at this point what had gone on. Once we finish a park it is HRM’s property. They are responsible for matinence, lawn mowing and garbage removal.

See everyone at the party September 13th.
