Ok, everyone. I guess it's my turn since, at the beginning of SNA I
was vice president and then president and, yes, female. The founder
and I think first president is a black man. If it's not good enough
to welcome you to come, I don't know what a volunteer organization
can do. If you are black/white/brown/yellow/green/whatever and
male/female/whatever and want to be on the board, whoever you are,
please come meet us. There are 3 criteria for board members and one
is to be actively involved. As for reaching out, our newsletter is
directly distributed to many households in Mt. Hope,depending upon
how many volunteers we have. So you know all about us and what we
are doing. If you are not receiving newsletters, please volunteer
for a route.<br>
<br>
As for separation, the city has decided that we are 2 neighborhoods.
Mt. Hope extends fairly far to the south and SNA to the north,
making one giant neighborhood not feasible. Last I knew, Mt. Hope
organization had a paid staff and plenty of work to do on their
priorities, though there is cooperation on mutual interests. <br>
<br>
That's it for me. Sorry to keep this issue going. Liz<br>
