Fire Station #23 Fundraiser
From Captain Keith---- We are starting to move toward our fundraising for Station #23. We have received the first order of t-shirts and we will begin selling them this week. The sign company at Northside and Bellemeade donated a sign for us. One of our members covered the cost of the shirts out of his own pocket, so I'd like to get enough sold quickly, so that we can pay him back. I would like to encourage folks to come in and buy a shirt? I am meeting with Bill Rhodes from the Atlanta Fire Foundation on Tuesday about starting a Foundation account for the renovation of #23. This will give us the ability to accept tax-deductible donations and avoid the interference and delays from City Hall. This will also help us as far as accounting of what we take in.
Calling for Park Pride Leader
With a name like Berkeley Park, we should have a neighborhood park! There is a growing interest to find a person to spearhead a park initiative for our neighborhood. There are a few ideas out on the table but we need someone who has the time to make phone calls to the city, create some publicity for a park, as well as encourage our neighborhood volunteers and gather input. If you have some free time to work on this initiative, please contact Mary Stuart or Melody at marystuart.iverson@harrynorman.com or mharclerode@TheArchitectureGroup.com
