2025 Block Party!

Well, it was AWESOME!

About a hundred people, kids and families and dogs and a bounce house!

It was a great fun success, but perhaps not a financial success.  We rely on activities throughout the year, but especially dues and raffle funds to support the party.

Recommended $20/family.  Please contact Jeff, our treasurer, to pay dues and make a donation!  And please feel free to share this email with anyone you know who may not yet be on our mailing list.
