Historical March 1979 report or notice. Dates, prices, programs, contacts and any regulatory statements refer to the original period; current availability or applicability is not established.
Rosedale Neighbors will be meeting on Friday, March 2, 1979, to wind up winter and prepare for the spring and summer activities that are to come. The Executive Committee has decided to hold the Annual Election of Officers this year on Friday, April 27, 1979, at Scariot Hall, St. Roch’s Church. During the meeting on March 2, a Nominating Committee will be named. This committee will have the task of searching out interested people to stand for office within the organization and for the Council. Anyone interested or knowing of interested persons should contact one of the members of the Nominating Committee before the April 27 meeting.
Several persons in the neighborhood have reminded us that there are many relatively new neighbors in Rosedale and that these people, as well as some of the “oldsters” may need to know of the activities that have traditionally been Rosedale’s. For this purpose, we offer the following description of Rosedale:
The Rosedale Neighborhood Assn. is one of the oldest neighborhood organizations in the city, having been incorporated in the 1950’s. Dedicated to the promotion of the welfare of the community and the establishment of a medium of genial acquaintance among its residents, the group takes in all the area from the west side of Des Peres Avenue to the east side of Skinker and from the south side of Delmar Boulevard to the north side of Forest Park Expressway.
RNA provides a forum for the discussion of all issues affecting the neighborhood through its quarterly meetings; in addition, RNA residents can express their views on neighborhood issues to the Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council through RNA’s President and four representatives, all of whom sit on the board of SDCC.
RNA is committed to the financial support of organizations and activities which will serve the residents of this area and make our neighborhood a place people are eager to live in. In the past few years, RNA has been able to sponsor TREE PLANTINGS, aid THE PAPER, fund the annual HALLOWEEN PARTY for all neighborhood children, help THE COUNCIL OF SKINKER DEBALIVIERE in various ways, and sponsor various social activities, such as a “New Neighbors Social,” through which we can get to know each other and maintain neighborhood ties.
We would also like to be able to appoint a Chairman for the “Men’s Liberation Cake Sale” at the Art Fair this year. Got some ideas? We need you!
