North Pillar Post Light Remains Dark!

Bryan Young (7536 Cornell) recently engaged Roscoe Electric (University City) to trouble shoot the light on the north pillar at the intersection of Cornell Avenue and Hanley Road. After an hour, the electrician still was unable to determine why the light doesn't shine when the sun sets (like the light on the south pillar). Next steps for the repair of the light will be discussed at our Annual Gannondale Neighborhood Meeting on Wednesday, November 17th at 7:30 pm. All Gannondale neighbors are invited to attend. The meeting will be held at Sue Kaiser's house, 7515 Gannon.

Final Golden Flamingo Award!

Alyson Horn is September's Golden Flamingo award winner. The award is bittersweet, however as Alyson lost her mother this year. In 2001, Alyson's mom helped redesign her front yard, including the installation of an automatic sprinkler system that helped keep the lawn at 7508 Gannon green during the recent hot, dry summer. So, the final 2010 Golden Flamingo is shared by Alyson and her mom, Patricia Umbaugh.

Gannondale Block Party - Warm Laughter on a (very) Cool Night

Gannondale families were chillin' at the annual Gannondale Neighborhood Block Party on Saturday, October 2nd. As the sun set, temperatures hovered around 60 degrees. The children kept warm by jumping around in the bounce house. The adults kept warm by eating, drinking and making merry. Hey, let's do it again next year!

Thanks to everyone who attended and helped out setting up and cleaning up the event.
