National Night Out 2024 Success

Posted on by 24x7 WP Support

A huge thanks for yet another successful NNO! We could not have accomplished that without the Los Paseos neighborhood community participating in this annual event! As well as a special call out to our sponsors, businesses, first responders (SJPD, SJFD, CHP) and leaders that help build our communities. The photos of the event can be seen here for the fun time had by all. Live music, games for the kids, chalk art contest, free food, and opportunities to meet each other and community businesses to learn about socially relevant topics to our everyday lives.

If you could not attend this year, please, join us on the first Tuesday in August next year. Hope to see you and partake in our annual summer event.

National Night Out 2021

Posted on by 24x7 WP Support
Hi Neighbors,

National Night Out is Back!!

Los Paseos 6th Annual National Night Out:
Tuesday, August 3, 2021, 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM, Los Paseos Park

The first Tuesday in August is National Night Out (NNO). We had to take a year off due to COVID-19, but we are planning a great event this year.  See Pictures of LPNA NNO 2019 here:

https://lospaseosneighbors.com/2019/08/08/another-successful-national-night-out/

The main purpose of this event is to promote public safety and reduce crime by getting to know your neighbors.   Los Paseos Neighborhood Association is hosting this event on August 3 at Los Paseos Park. So come out and meet your neighbors and enjoy the great music of Crimson Blues,  Brian the Bubble Guy, games, Kid’s Chalk Art Contest, free snacks and free ice cream.  Members of SJPD and other Crime Prevention Specialists, will attend, and if available, SJFD (Station 27).  Also scout troops and some local vendors will have resource tables.  The Cub Scouts will be doing their traditional flag ceremony.

We will follow the guidance of the Santa Clara County Health Department regarding COVID-19 restrictions & recommendations.  Due to health concerns, we will not have the jumpy houses this year or the face painting, but plenty of other safe activities.  Masks are optional since this is an outdoor event.

We are looking for volunteers to help make this event a success.  We need volunteers to hand out snacks, help at the sign-in table, judging the Chalk Art Contest, and help setting up the event and tearing down after the event.  If you are able to lend us an hour of your time, please send an email to vp@lospaseosneighbors.com.  Thank you for your consideration.

Martin Murphy & Los Paseos School security fencing – September 5, 2019 meeting

Posted on by Greg Peck
In case you missed the meeting, see the handout given at the meeting, images below, or in the attached pdf file.
One page lists answers to the Q&A at the first meeting.
The second page is a very preliminary position of the fence (red line) that will connect to the ends of the one chain link fence currently around the track and soccer field, thus surrounding the MHUSD property. This is NOT the final layout.
In attendance:
  • Anessa Espinosa, MHUSD Director of Facilities, running the meeting
  • Steve Betando, MHUSD Superintendent
  • Name not known, MHUSD Construction Design
  • Alex Aesan, Principal of Martin Murphy Middle School
  • Torie O’Reilly, SJ Parks Dept Manager
  • Sergio Jimenez and Vanessa Sandoval of District 2 Office
  • Other attendees: approximately 25 people
Anessa went over the Q&A
All named attendees above gave information related to the reasons for the fence both locally and at other schools across the Bay Area, State and nation.
Also, a discussion of a joint use agreement being discussed between MHUSD and San Jose City Parks (Torie O’Reilly) to address the neighborhood concern that an area that has been used for decades is being eliminated from their use. A suggestion was given to place a running/walking loop between Los Paseos Elementary and the School field; this is on the Park property. Torie took notes and will update us in the future.
A comment about possible continued use is to put in electrically controlled gates as shown in the field photo (see pdf) that would be open during non-school hours, including weekends. This is still under consideration as to type of gates and entrance possibilities.
The neighborhood attendees’ comments were received and taken note of by the named attendees above.
