MARCH 20, 2008 ELECTION OF OFFICERS





The February Meeting of the Eastgate Neighborhood Association was held Thursday, Feb. 28, 2007, at 6:30 P.M. at the Hampton Inn & Suites, 3388 Lonnbladh Road.





Here are some photos of the attendees -- all but me; I'm taking the photos.







These meetings are informative, as there are a lot of "forces-at-play" in our area — proposed development in adjacent areas; vacated residences in our Eastgate; late-night noise in the neighborhood; arson in ADJACENT Kipwood; etc., etc., etc.








We also have many positive programs for which planning is required:
Annual EYS (Eastgate Yard Sale); Toxic Waste Round-Up; Spring "Party" and EasterEgg Hunt.







Now there is a VERY IMPORTANT Meeting coming up — namely the March 20, 2008, meeting, which includes the election of officers. Quite frankly, the current "slate of proposed officers" includes some very familiar faces; most have served year-after-year. This is not because they want to, but because they have to — no one else will step up and serve! So I'm asking, pleading, with you... If you have an ounce of civic pride in your blood, if you really care about this great neighborhood that we live in, if you want to become involved — come to the March 20 meeting, and we'll get you involved!
