September 1999

MINUTES FROM THE AUGUST MEETING

These minutes are short as we were on vacation during this meeting. Most of the discussions centered around the final push for the West End Community Fund Campaign.

WEST END NOTES

The "4th Street Filling Station" formerly known as Shobers is open for business. I walked by on Friday and things look great! Look for a review in the October issue.

A West End Thanks to Laura and Allan Burrows and Sidney and Dan Falken for hosting the August 21st block party in West End "East". About 35 people turned out, some were new residents to the West End. Also, thanks to all who've attended a West End Block party recently - it is a chance to get to know your neighbors and see up close the signs and designs we have for neighborhood improvements through our West End Community Fund. There are TWO more block parties to go - rescheduled from August. One for West End North on September 18 from 5:00 to 7:00 pm, the other TBA for West End Central (South). Most remaining individual homes will be getting invites as our hosts get their plans together. We will NOT have a neighborhood-wide party in Grace Court on September 6 as said here last month - tentative plans now have it for Sunday, September 26. Call Lisa Elam at 724-5282 if you'd like to help plan this event.

 

 

From the Winston-Salem Events Staff: Plans are in the works for another Burke Street Bash coming on September 18. The format will be a little different,providing opportunities to hear several different bands on one night. It's going to be tons of fun, so don't miss it. We should have some interesting and yummy food vendors on site, too, including a booth from the new Cajun place that's opened up on Trade Street.
