Hello Neighbors!
As I write this, the day after National Night Out, the sky is blue and the weather is beautiful. Note to self: next time postpone the event if it's raining! Despite the rain, we had a record turn out for National Night Out and earned bragging rights as the toughest block in the neighborhood.
Here are the Winners from our Games:
Angie and Yolanda each won a $5 gift certificate to Dabble in the pass the orange contest.
Yolanda won the egg relay race and distributed the 10 MN Twins vouchers.
Max won the checkers competition and a $20 gift certificate for Snap!
Mike and Peggy won 30 minute massages from Keathly Massage in the water balloon toss.
Noah won dance classes from Zenon Dance Company in the coloring contest.
The food was paid for by donations from residents, Target and Cub.
Special thanks to:
Mirellia for too many things to list.
Mary for contacting local businesses for donations.
Jesse and Angie for setting up their tarps and for use of their grill and coolers.
Michelle and Jesse for grilling.
Carol for use of the tables (and making such delicious beans!)
Harvey, Stan and Mike for keeping the tarps up!
Mike, Harvey, Mirellia, Jesse, Angie, etc. for helping with setup and tear down.
All neighbors for their donations, assistance, food and willingness to party in the rain.
Visit the website for the Northeast Citizen Patrol. All types of volunteer work is needed and donations would be greatly appreciated. Help support this great organization that is working hard to make your neighborhood a safer place to live!
Yolanda is going to keep us all in touch with a neighborhood e-mail group. If you would like to be included, please e-mail her at: womacky4@yahoo.com. She will keep us posted on news in the area and send out any news/information/invitations you would like shared with your neighbors.
Let's all keep in touch and have a great summer!
