The Citywide Fall cleanup will be Saturday 10/17! 9am-Noon

Please come out and help cleanup the neighborhood and park. We will meet at Johnson & Heath St at 9am (we will have refreshments) to help tackle areas in the neighborhood that need to be cleaned up. We have a long list of projects, so any time you can spare is appreciated! We will have gloves, trash bags and shovels & brooms available.

If you cannot join the group, be sure to take some time to cleanup the area around your own home or your block. Pull those weeds, pickup trash, sweep the alley, plant some flowers!

The next RNA meeting will be Monday, October 26th at 7pm.

The Reserve, a new restaurant in our neighborhood, will be sponsoring the meeting and will have some items from their menu for us to sample.

Agenda:
- Discussion of off-leash options for dogs in the park and how this will fit in with the master plan for the park
- Any further questions about the master plan for the park
- Plus our usual committee updates

Hope to see you there.
