Hi Neighbors,

All are welcome at our June meeting (and every meeting) of the Ward 1 NPA! We next meet on Wednesday 6/14 at the Friends Meeting House, 173 North Prospect Street, and over Zoom. This will be our last meeting of the Spring/Summer, though we are planning a barbecue at Schmanska Park in August (and maybe other summer activities). Come early for supper - Sam Ayotte's delectables!

This month we will hear from our City Councilors, School Commissioners, and Representative Troy Headrick (this is an extremely interesting time for the State Legislature), The committees who met this past month to plan collective community activities will give us updates on plans. Sharyl Green will talk more about graffiti, and Zoraya will describe the Public Safety landscape as an introduction to meetings we may hold in the future.

And most important, it is a time to meet with your neighbors, eat, chat, and talk about what's on your mind.

The details:
