Howdy-
Fiberoptic is now available in our neighborhood and a salesman just pitched internet, phone & cable service from AT&T.
Has anyone dropped Time Warner for AT&T? How are the speeds/service?
Thanks in advanced! Vanessa

Twice this afternoon I witnessed a red Volvo sedan (newer model) traveling at extremely high speeds down Rumson towards Marlborough. Very loud, very fast and very dangerous. If anyone is a neighbor to this fool tell them to slow down.
Last time I saw a vehicle driving that recklessly it went airborne at the top of the hill, crashed into a utility poll and landed in the Greenway easement.

Anybody else have a knock on the door this early evening from a tall black
man in blue jeans, plain white shirt and white shoes on? If I don't know
you, I don't answer the door so I don't know what this guy wanted. He
wasn't scared away by our massive dog trying to get him through the window.
He stayed on the porch for a while and eventually walked away north on
Marlborough while looking back. Anyone else?
I also called in shots fired last night at 12:10 a.m. I live at the
intersection of Millbank Street and Brighton Road in the Lockwood
subdivision off Raleigh Boulevard. To us it sounded like the shots were
coming from the northern edge of Raleigh North Apartments or the southern
edge of the Park Glen apartment complex; I gave as the approximate location
the dead ends of Downing or Burgundy. We also heard and saw fireworks in
our area, as well as subsequent volleys of what sounded like gunshots, with
some of the shots seeming to come from a moving vehicle.

The young man that resides on Locke has been in business quite a few years now and he usually sells near Enloe H/S and most of the chidren know him on Stevens, Milburnie Rds. He recently loss his mother (2011) and I hope he has not resorted to crime because he has a great business.

Subject: Re: [East-CAC] "ice cream" trucks
Any specific description would be helpful since there are a couple that work the area.
My daughter mentioned that there's an ice cream truck on Locke Lane by Enloe, Pringle's Snack Attack — it has polka dots.
I'd hate to bother a neighbor who is just driving thru the neighborhood on their way home.
Best, Vanessa

Howdy,
Over the weekend somebody managed to siphon off over half a tank of fuel from our car. Bad news for the thief: it was diesel!
With today's price of gas, it comes as no surprise. Perhaps now is a good time to invest in a locking gas cap or two…
Best, Vanessa

Hey neighbors,
This is a friendly reminder about the Stream and Street Cleanup this weekend. Many people in the area have commented about the trash and other debris in the stream along Locke between North King Charles and Bertie. Now is your chance to help clean it up! Come on out on Saturday April 28 from 10:00 to 2:00 to help with the Stream and Street cleanup on Locke Lane. This effort is scheduled to coincide with the NCDOT 2012 Spring Litter Sweep (April 14-28). We are also working with the Adopt-a-Stream program to obtain materials and support for the cleanup effort. This is a great way to meet some more of your neighbors and help make the neighborhood a better place.
There is also an opportunity to win cash prizes!! Pepsico in conjunction with the Spring Litter Sweep is holding a contest to find the most unusual litter. Cash prizes for the most unusual litter items go all the way up to $250! What a great way to put some extra change in your pocket while helping a good cause at the same time.
Where and when:- Saturday April 28 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM- Meeting location will be at the corner of Bertie and Locke. Ask for Sheri.
What will be provided:- Trash bags- Safety vests- Latex gloves- Trash pickup
What you need to bring:- Appropriate clothing, such as boots, hat, etc.- Bug spray- Sunscreen- Work gloves. We may have a few extra pairs, but if you have some, please bring them.
We welcome all participants, but if you're under 18, we'll need written parental consent. Let me know if you need a consent form, and I'll email it to you.
Many thanks to Sheri Cassidy for heading up this effort. Great work Sheri!
My apologies for the cross posts, but I'm trying to reach the broadest group of folks in our area.
Kind regards,Matt LearyChairperson, Longview Park Community Watch

Hello friends,
The time is running out... the day of our party will be here before we know
it. My goal was to have sponsors to provide us with enough food for the
neighborhood and volunteers.... well that didn't work out as well as I
hoped. What does that mean for us..... we will all have to bring food. I
need help securing tables for the sponsors that are coming, as well as tent
in case of rain. Rain or shine the party goes on. Items we need:
Grills
Tables
Chairs
Tents/shelters
trash cans and trash bags
Moon walk or bouncy thing for the kids ( and for me :-) )
Paper products: Plates, cups napkins
plastic silverware
Portable radio.... Have not heard back from Mix 101.5 yet
Anything else you think we need
Food: Hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken, what ever you want to bring to put on
the grill
Side dishes, chips, salsa.... whatever everyone wants to bring
Desserts:
I will need help setting up that morning and clean up that afternoon
Please let me know what and how you can help.
Thanks... looking forward to the party !
Allison
