Grill n' Chill

by Matt Leary

Hey neighbors, Thank you to everybody who came out to the Grill n' Chill on Tuesday. We had a great turnout and a lot of fun. We had new faces and a few we haven't seen in quite some time. I want to say special thanks to Deborah for all she did, Joel for the bouncy castle (the kids had a blast!), Ginger and Luis for all their help and Karen and Mr. Roberts for all the great food. It was also great to see Officer K. It was definitely a neighborhood effort. I hope everybody who attended had a good time. Matt

Grill n' Chill Update

by Matt Leary

Hey folks, I hope everyone had a good weekend. Well, the Grill n' Chill is tomorrow, and I'm really looking forward to seeing you all there. It looks like the weather will cooperate with us tomorrow too, just a 30% chance of isolated storms tomorrow evening. Come on out! It's a great way to meet your neighbors and we'll be supporting National Night Out. Here's the skinny: bring items you want to grill such as meat, vegetables, veggie burgers, etc. You can bring enough just for yourself, or you can bring enough to share. People are encouraged to bring side items or desserts to share if they wish, but it isn't a requirement. The idea is to come participate, meet your neighbors and have a good time. Our neighbors our providing a grill to use and coolers to keep our perishables and drinks fresh and cool. We'll need a few able-bodied folks to help setup and break down/cleanup, so if you fit that category, please come on out to help. We're trying to keep the amount of waste generated by this event down to a minimum, so we encourage folks to bring their own reusable cups, plates and utensils. Items you can bring Drinks - sorry no alcoholItems to grill and shareYour own cups, plates and forksBug spray, bug candles, etc.Condiments: ketchup, mustard, relish, mayo, etc.Friends and neighbors, but please leave the four-legged family members at home Matt

RE: Bouncy for Natl. Night Out..

by Deborah Ford

Good afternoon! Matt I spoke with Joel R. yesterday Sunday July 21st. and he informed me he is scheduled to have knee surgery on the 30th of July which may hinder him from getting the bouncy for the N.N.O August 6th, 2013 at that point he may or may not be able to drive the truck as well as set it up, so right now it is questionable. Joel did say he would see what he can do but will definitely need help, I'm guessing at least 4-5 people. Ms. Deborah Ford (919) 835-3566
