As clearing sidewalks and driveways is currently a top priority for many, we encourage you to dedicate some time to clearing the area surrounding the fire hydrant near your home when possible. This brief task could have a critical impact in the event of an emergency. We are grateful for the community's support in completing this task and recognize the collective efforts that make our neighborhood a great place to live.

Please "ADOPT A HYDRANT"...............With a long winter ahead😳 we are asking for your help as the snow accumulates. As you clear the snow from your sidewalks and driveways, please take an extra moment to clear around the Hydrants. Seconds can mean a lot!!!

Thank you to our great community! 4200 lbs of food went to the food pantry.

A huge thank you to the community for your donations of food items and money during our annual Candy Cane / Can Food Drive event. A record was set with 4,200 pounds of food and $815 in cash - all donated to our local St. Vincent de Paul, helping those in need. For those that braved the frigid temps in helping this year to those who gave so generously throughout the community, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
If we didn't get to your home this year we apologize and ask that if you did have a donation, please drop it off directly at St. Vincent de Paul.
Merry Christmas and have a safe Holiday season.
