REDWOOD FARM CIVIC LEAGUE NEWSLETTER

April, 2002

Editor's Note: In an attempt to improve communication within our neighborhood, the Civic League, at its last meeting, proposed developing a newsletter. This is your newsletter and we will include information that may be both general and specific in nature. If you have special notices to be included, please contact me and I will gladly incorporate them as well. Your comments and feedback are important to make the newsletter a useful tool for staying in touch. DRM

MEETING NOTICE
The next Civic League meeting will be held on Tuesday, April 30, 7 p.m. at the Lynnhaven United Methodist Church. We will have an invited guest speaker who will discuss issues regarding the proposed installation of 3 cellular towers at the Little Neck Swim & Racquet Club.

DID YOU KNOW?
The City of Virginia Beach has scheduled the sanitary sewer line installation to begin around November 1 (according to the city engineer). Installation will take 12-16 months and will cost approximately $1,700 per household in hook-up fees. We will invite a city representative to discuss the particulars at a special Civic League meeting in the near future.

NEIGHBORHOOD GARAGE SALE
The Neighborhood Garage Sale is scheduled for Saturday, May 18, from 9 a.m. to 12 noon. Items that don't sell may be donated to the Children's Hospital Thrift Shop by placing them at the curb before 1:00 p.m. for pick-up.

CALLING ALL BONKO BABES!
Recently, the Virginian Pilot published an interesting piece on Bonko -- one of the most popular neighborhood games. It's great fun, no skill involved, and a wonderful way to spend an evening with your neighbors. The first Ladies Bonko Game Night will be held Tuesday, May 14, at Tess Bradlee's home. Please RSVP by Friday the 10th to 463-6217.

In closing...
The warm weather is here so it's time to catch up with your neighbors. There are activities being planned for our neighborhood. Be on the lookout for notices. Get well wishes to Peggy Witte and Linda Mendelsohn as they recover from their recent episodes!
