Neighborhood Alliance Annual Meeting

In case you feel especially civic minded this Saturday, the Neighborhood Alliance has its annual meeting from 9-1, with a lunch meeting with assorted candidates for Mayor and city council:

We hope you will be able to attend Carbondale’s Neighborhood and Housing Action Group annual Neighborhood Alliance meeting on Saturday, January 22, 2011, 9:30 am to 1 pm, at the First United Methodist Church in Carbondale (214 W. Main). 2011 marks the seventh (7th) year of Neighborhood Alliance meetings. Neighborhood Alliance meetings provide an excellent opportunity to meet citizens of Carbondale, hear about their neighborhood and community work, as well as ,learn about local issues they feel are significant.

The luncheon portion of the meeting will feature an introduction of candidates running for Mayor and Council and an informal opportunity for candidates to talk with Carbondale citizens. If you have questions or would like to volunteer with set-up or clean-up, contact Mary O’Hara at 713-0820, maryohara@mchsi.com or Sarah Heyer at 549-5302 x 386 or studycircles@ci.carbondale.il.us.
