On Saturday, October 22nd, the Eastside Neighborhood Association is sponsoring a Eastside Neighborhood Talent Show at Salvation Army Center on 4th and Central. The show will go from 3 to 5 p.m. If you are from Eastside Neighborhood and interesting in presenting music, dancing, comedy, poetry, etc. at that Talent Show, please let me know. You may also connect with someone else from Eastside Neighborhood who wishes to perform. My email is [email protected]. Thanks!
If you have lived here any length of time, you would be aware that we have coyotes in the neighborhood.
We now have a very active pair with seven puppies located on Henry Street, which is just off 11th Avenue Southeast. The coyotes have been seen a lot more often during the day, not just in the green spaces but in driveways and other developed areas.
A neighbor has shared this album, along with the fact that they have killed a number of the neighbors cats. If you own a pet, we strongly advise you to keep it inside at night.
Department of Fish and Wildlife will not do anything. The coyotes were here long before it was as populated as it is now, just like the neighborhood deer.
The ENA Annual Picnic is scheduled to be held this Saturday at Lion’s Park, in the shelter.
Running from 4pm to 7pm, Eastside Big Tom’s has graciously donated the burgers, there will also be hotdogs. You are welcome to bring a side or dessert to share.
In case you did not get the mailed copy here is what the Neighborhood Grant helped us produce.
The Eastside Neighborhood Association is worked with City Parks Department to replace two trees in Lions Park. These trees they replaced were dead or diseased and removed by park staff. Through ENA efforts a planting party was held, Saturday 26th February 2022. This effort helps us maintain the beauty of Lions Park and our neighborhood.
From one of the volunteers, “There was a very successful project to plant two trees at Lion’s Park this morning. I think the attached picture shows most if not all the volunteers. Also, some good discussion on how to build on this effort, e.g., planting oak trees on Legion Way all the way to Edison.”
No matter your abilities, knowledge or age, there are opportunities often to get involved within our neighborhood and help build community. If you know of a project, effort or need, feel free to reach out the ENA to get support.
