A note from Annie Poole, ECNA resident and association board member:
If you have a chance, please stop by the Kennedy Branch Library this month and check out the East Central Neighborhood display in the cases along the north wall. Mike Mavis and I filled all 4 cases with Emily Kimbrough books and memorabilia and they look wonderful, if I may say so myself. We also were able to work in education about our neighborhood and the Washington Street Festival into the displays. In fact, the table display is mostly centered around the Festival. A big thank you to Mike who was able to provide some really unique and interesting Emily items and to Dawn for the complete collection of Emily’s books. It really looks fantastic…. Emily’s books have never shined more brightly since they were published.
Go check it out!!!!
The City of Muncie recently released it’s plans for paving for 2015 thru 2016 and many large paving projects are included on the list including much of North Wheeling Avenue and West Bethel Avenue.
The Urban Light Community Church in conjunction with the South Central Neighborhood Association hosted a block party as a time of community celebration. The block party included free food, cake walk, bouncy houses, and a dunk tape and all were entertained by a local DJ and a youth talent showcase. Everyone enjoyed time to socialize and reconnect with old friends.
The East Central Neighborhood Association hosted the Annual Picnic in the Park Summer Celebration on Sunday, July 26th from 1-3:00 pm at Washington Park. The picnic included a cookout with free hot dogs and hamburgers, sides, drinks and ice cream for all neighborhood residents and their guests. This relaxing lunch was a great chance to connect or reconnect with neighbors and included activities for the kids so the grown ups had a chance to sit back and chat.
The Forest Park Neighborhood Association and the Senior Citizens Center held this annual event, which included America’s Hometown Band, a Cakewalk, all-you-can-eat ice cream and time visit with neighbors and friends!
