Colonial Village Neighborhood

We have this ladies ID card if anyone knows her.

From DPR: DPR is hosting a Back to School Bash at Campus Hills Recreation Center on Saturday, August 22. Originally, this would have been a fun family event with games, activities, resources, and a school supply giveaway. The event has been modified to a drive-thru giveaway of school supplies and community resources.

We could use your support to make this event a huge success! Here are a few ways you can help:

Share any suggestions of local business that might make a donation
Let us know if there’s a community organization that might want to share resources/information at this event
Make a personal donation of school supplies. Contact Jared Hardin ([email protected]) for more information
Ask community groups you’re involved with if they can coordinate a group collection

We appreciate any help! Please reach out to Michelle Burger ([email protected]) or Jared Hardin with any questions.

The new neighborhood listserv will be on Google Groups and can be found by searching Google Groups for "Colonial Village Durham" or following this link: https://groups.google.com/d/forum/colonial-village-durham

I am attempting to move folks emails over from the old listserv, but it will only allow me to add 100 a day (We had 500 subscribers) so please pardon the mess if it takes a few days to get everyone added. In the meantime, I will post how to subscribe yourself in the comments.

Hello everyone,
Verizon, which owns Yahoo, is ending our listserv at the end of October, on the 28th.

The alternative would be to remain ONLY on Nextdoor.
What would you prefer?
Thank you!
