If you’re sorry to have missed the Rosedale Neighborhood Association meeting planned for March, don’t be — you didn’t.
The rescheduled meeting, for April, will feature a presentation by Guy McClellan of Mead, McClellan, Inc., which has assumed the development of several neighborhood properties formerly held by the now-defunct Rosedale Living, Inc.
A tour of some of the properties undergoing renovation will also be offered. Plan to join us for the potluck dinner before the “business” meeting.
The door prize will be a pair of Cardinal baseball tickets. Check the Calendar of Events section for time and place. Meanwhile, the Executive Board would like to hear from any Rosedale resident interested in serving as an officer of the Association for the next term. Positions include President, First and Second Vice Presidents, Secretary, Treasurer, North- and South-side representatives, and their alternates. Contact Bob Dowgwillo (726-0740) or Mary Clare Kerz (863-0119) for more information. Nominations and elections will be held at the April general meeting if a slate is ready.
On this note, Maverine Wilson (First Vice President) and Steve Littlejohn (Secretary) recently tendered their resignations from the Board. Their positions will remain vacant pending the upcoming elections.
We thank them for their past support.
At a meeting on March 10, the Board agreed to move the date for the annual Rags to Riches neighborhood yard sale from late Spring to late Summer/early Fall.
We hope to thereby avoid increasing competition while having the opportunity to capitalize on the Forest Park Balloon Race and the move-in of Washington University students. So, save your “good stuff’ until then!
The Central West End Association’s Committee on Neighborhood Appearance and Beautification has asked the Association to help with a new project, in conjunction with the Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council.
The project entails a survey of the present condition of residential areas to identify deficiencies and propose corrective action.
The Board has agreed to help with the survey of local public access areas, including alleys, streets, bus stops, parking lots, etc.
This doesn’t mean that your broken curb will be fixed anytime soon, but it is a step in the right direction. Hope to see you in at the April potluck.
