Venue change for 8/8 PB meeting
Apologies for the late notice. The PB meeting to be held tonight from 6-8pm for the PB process for the Calpine Grant was moved this morning to the Los Paseos Elementary multi-purpose room (121 Avenida Espana, San Jose, CA 95139)
If you are attending the meeting tonight, be sure to report to the proper location. I confirmed location with Joshua this afternoon and adjusted the site’s calendar notification (unfortunately it is taking its time to update in an expedient manner).
National Night Out 2016 Success
Posted on behalf of LPNA President, Greg Peck
Hello, Los Paseos neighbors.
The 2nd Annual LPNA National Night Out has come and gone. By all accounts, it was a great evening in the Los Paseos Park.
Close to 200 people attended the LPNA NNO 2016.
A lot of hard work went into making LPNA NNO 2016 go off so smoothly. The LPNA Board would like to thank all who organized and made it happen.
A big thank you to the people who prepared and facilitated the events and information tables – (Monster Golf), (Chalk Art), (Local Park Improvements), (Disaster Preparedness), (Participatory Budget), (Cub and Boy Scouts), (Neighborhood Watch), (Girl Scouts), (D2 Office), (ST Library), (PremierOne).
A big thank you to the park maintenance crew who prepared the site for us. And a big thank you to the jump house vendor IJump, to the ice cream vendor Golden State Ice Cream, and to the hot dog steamer vendor Jumper4kids. And to the hot doggers (my family) who served.
And, a big thank you to the San Jose Police Department (Policemen, CSO and Cadets) and to Fire Station #27 for your valued attendance.
Without your support, the LPNA NNO 2016 could not have been such a success.
Last but not least, the attendees. Thank you very much for your attendance and support. You are the best!
Helping to make our community and our world a better one to live in.
Regards,
Greg Peck
LPNA
