I thought it was time I introduced myself on the forum. My name is Miranda and I live a few blocks over from you on Cross St. I know many of you from walking my dog over in your neck of the woods. I really hope to get to know a few more of you over the summer months.
I read your website frequently, as I am an active board member for the Citizens of Pigtown (Southwest Community Council), and your forum indicates that the Barre Circle Community Association seems to share the same goals and concerns that we do, especially in regards to things happening on Washington Blvd. You are encouraged and welcome, of course, to attend one of our monthly general meetings at 904 Washington Blvd to get to know some of us (perhaps you've seen a pink flyer or two from us).
I have been working really hard to get some fun activities started down on our end of the block to compliment all of the great development that has been happening (the number of ongoing rehabs on my street alone is phenomenal). We have an outdoor screening of the movie "Babe" scheduled for May 21st to unveil our new pig mascot. Additionally, we're trying to coordinate some other community activity nights (so I'm asking what sorts of things people might like to do with their neighbors...BBQs??? Cleanups?? Game Nights??) I am also very interested in getting some greenery around the neighborhood, so anyone who wants to help get more trees around Pigtown should talk to me (I realize Barre Circle is a very lush area, but hey, maybe you'd like to help me organize a flower sale or something soon for the entire neighborhood).
I guess that's it for now. I just wanted to say hi and let you know I'm out here.
