Historic Glenwood-Brooklyn
Neighborhood Association Meeting - 10/02/2002
Tony Sterantino, a Master
Gardener with the Wake County Extension Service, gave us a great
presentation on composting. In addition to an informative video,
he provided detailed information and advice on composting dos
and don'ts, and answered questions. <If you can, scan in
the "A-B-Cs of Composting" sheet and link to it - I
have it...>
During the business portion
of the meeting, we covered several important topics.
Council Nominations &
Elections:
We discussed the nomination
process and the names of people who have either volunteered or
been nominated for Council Leadership posts. Jeff Roberts will
finalize the ballot and Council Elections will be held at the
next Association meeting on November 6th. All Voting Members
of the Associations are encouraged to attend to cast your vote!
(Reminder: only Voting Members are allowed to vote, and you
must be present to vote.) This will also be your opportunity
to learn more about the various committees, and to volunteer
if you would like to join a committee.
Discussion then turned to
the Fall Fling. A decision was made on the date: Sunday, October
27th, and time: 1:00 - 5:00 p.m., in Fred Fletcher Park. Fliers
have been distributed to neighbors. Please see the announcement
on this website, as well. We hope to see you at the Fling!
We also began to plan for
the Tour of Historic Homes. This year's tour will be on Saturday,
December 7th. We still need homes for the tour, so if you would
like to show off your lovely home on the tour, please contact
Jennifer Attride at 838-9635. Check back to the website frequently
for updates and additional information about the tour, and come
to the November 7th meeting to learn more.
Finally, Jim Ward is coordinating
Volunteer Work Days in Fred Fletcher Park to do general cleanup
and maintenance. The next Volunteer Work Day is Saturday, October
19th, from 9:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. Please RSVP to Jim if you
