Message from the President

Hey Neighbors....

Tomorrow night at 7pm is the monthly Creekside Neighborhood Association gathering at Homecoming Apartments (upstairs in the main clubhouse).

This month we will give ourselves a big pat on the back for how we handled the storm and the clean up after the storm. It has been a great month for us and I am so proud of our community.

We had about 25 people show up to help us clean up all the garbage around the neighborhood. Along with our Creekside residents of all ages we had help from Regency Park, Lewis Communities, Councilmember Ray Tretheway, Randi Kay and Dan Roth.

Behind the scenes the City waste department has been terrific - you probably noticed all the trees and all the trash bags have been picked up and taken away...

So please join me tomorrow to discuss our next projects in Creekside and to take a day to celebrate our community pride! See you at 7pm upstairs in the Homecoming Apartments main office...

Angelique Ashby, JD
President, Creekside Neighborhood Association

Creekside Neighbors Rally for "Creekside Cleanup"

Heavy rains and fierce winds swept through our community last week, leaving the neighborhood littered with trash, broken fences, and clogged sewers. Last Saturday Neighbors and Friends joined together for the first ever "Creekside Cleanup". Thanks to great organizing by Angelique Ashby, the dedication of several dozen committed neighbors, the support of Lewis Communities, Ray Tretheway's Office, and our friends and allies in Regency Park, our streets and green spaces are once again litter free. Thank you to all those who dedicated your time and energy in the clean up effort! It is just another example of the wonderful community spirit and PRIDE there is in Creekside.
