2021 July and August – Street Picnics!

Let’s Celebrate Summer!

(and living in the wonderful East Lake Neighborhood!)

In lieu of the single East Lake Neighborhood Association summer picnic usually held at Jacobson Park, the ELNA board is encouraging block parties within the East Lake Neighborhood.

Any renter or homeowner or friend within the boundaries of the neighborhood can come (see the front page of http://elnalex.org for a map).

The board is requesting volunteers from each of these areas to spearhead a block party. A block party is fairly simple to organize and a great way to stay in touch with neighbors as well as welcome new neighbors! Your ELNA will support the block parties by providing up to $50 towards the meat if you choose to grill and chill. And, an ELNA board member will make every effort to be present at each event to help meet and greet! For additional information or ideas, please email contacttheboard@elnalex.org.

Recommendations for the organizer(s): print up a simple flyer and distribute it to your neighbors. Pick a date, a time, and a cul de sac or even a driveway, and let everyone know to come!

Volunteers please respond by Wednesday, July 14, 2021.

Join us and get to know your neighbors!!
