Hi. We need a Secretary for the Neighborhood Association. This person is mostly needed to record proceedings of the Board meetings. And post the minutes on the web site. Expect we will meet quarterly. This is a Board position for 2 years.
Interested? Come to the next meeting on April 19, 6:30 pm at the Knox Facility. Also contact pr*******@**************ia.org for more information.
Host families are needed to house students participating in the 62nd Annual YMCA Youth Legislature. Volunteers will have the opportunity to meet some of the most engaged, energetic, and civically oriented young people in Washington State.

Like residents in many of Olympia’s older neighborhoods, your neighbors in the northeast corner of Olympia are anxious to have sidewalks installed on streets that are used to reach local destinations like schools and parks. Because it currently costs the City of Olympia close to $1 million per mile to install a typical concrete sidewalk, very little money is left to build sidewalks on the City’s smaller streets, which are often the most popular routes used to reach schools and parks. The 1-page summary, complete proposal, and presentation made to CNA on Oct. 13 (posted on our website, www.neneighborhood.org) describe how we’d like to address community mobility issues in a way that is environmentally sound, cost effective, and lead by residents themselves.
