We will be hosting our 2nd Adopt-A-Street Cleanup on Saturday May 31st from 9am-1pm.
If you would like to volunteer for this event, please post a comment here or email kyle.mizell@gmail.com.
No experience necessary and all supplies are provided!
A reminder that our meeting will take place on Tuesday, May 13th from 6:30-8pm at Ginomai (corner of 42nd and Genesee in the old West Seattle Christian Church School).
Blue Star will be present to update us on the construction of the approved Whole Foods project and how it will impact our neighborhood. They will also give us some new information on the proposed project in the ex-Huling Showroom property.
Conner Homes will then present information on the proposed project on California/Alaska/42nd that went to design review in April. We have sent them comments and suggestions based onthe presentation, and they are open to further discussion.
Our website, www.wsjuno.com, is temporarily down. The site was hacked so we are in the process of working with our provider to restore the information. I hope to report on Tuesday that it is up again - stay tuned.
Also, we will be having a garage sale this Saturday from 9-3pm in front of 4542 41st Ave SW. Proceeds from the garage sale will go towards our $300 501c3 application fee and process. If you have any items you would like to donate to the garage sale to help us raise money, feel free to stop in on Saturday. All unsold items will be given to a local charity.
I look forward to seeing you all soon!
Sincerely,
Erica Karlovits
President, JuNO
