January 16, 2010 Dear Neighbor: When working on events at the Skinker DeBaliviere Community Council office, it is always a pleasure to hear people say “I am new to this neighborhood, and I’m so impressed with the events and friendly neighbors here!” The dedication and involvement from neighbors long ago and today has held our neighborhood together in good times and in bad.
This is apparent in the beautifully revised and updated book “Celebrating Skinker DeBaliviere: History and Comeback” which was released this year.
We are all proud of what our neighborhood has accomplished and the SDCC looks forward to working with you as our history continues to develop.
The Skinker DeBaliviere Community Council is an important part of our history.
From interesting traffic challenges, to entertaining events at Greg Freeman Park, new buildings on Delmar, and colorful community gardens, the SDCC has been an integral resource. Its purpose, as stated in the bylaws SDCC works to promote the welfare of the community, creating and establishing a medium of cooperation among its residents, businesses, institutions, and the organizations serving them, and by fostering and encouraging measures conducive to the improvement of the community and its resources.
The Council office is maintained from Institutional Supporters, grants when available, fundraisers, and donations (which are tax deductible). Your support of the Friends of Skinker DeBaliviere Campaign will help create an exciting 2010 and beyond.
Please join us in supporting this effort. Thank you, Andy and Linda Cross, Committee Co-Chairs Katrina Stierholz President of the Board, SDCC
