Lynn Woolfolk, resident manager of Rosedale Square apartments on Washington was one of the Olympic torch bearers when the torch passed through St. Louis on Tuesday, May 28. Our Neighborhood Stabilization Officer (NSO) for the last year and a half has been Jackie Wellington. Many of us have profited from ther able assistance and her calm and mature manner. Jackie has resigned taking a job with the planning office of St. Louis County.
Her talents will be greatly missed.
The SDCC Board and its Director, and Alderman Dan McGuire honored her at the June 10 council meeting. Mary Schmit reports that her garage has been infested by carpenter bees who are slowly but methodically eating away her storage shed. Hers is not the first siting of these very destructive insects. Exterminators are on the way. Jill McGuire recently hosted two major conventions of organizations which fund the arts at the local level.
The conferences were held at the Adams Mark and speak ers included Jane Alexander of the N. E. A., former Atlanta Mayor Maynard Jackson, and actor Avery Brooks. Guests enjoyed a visit to Circus Flora and City Hall. Here’s a big Well Done! to neighborhood graduates we learned about. (Did you call?) First our high school grads: Kara Schnaible, 62XX Pershing, will attend Southeast Missouri State. Ed Knoten of 63)0( Pershing will enter Loyola University in New Orleans, Emily Gerard, 4X.X.
