Parkways and medians on Silver, Gold, Lead and Coal: Katy is working with Dan Humbull of the Solid waste department and they seem to be responding better. Trees are being run over, cut down, and plantings are dying.

Attracting New Members: Katy led a discussion about attracting new members, engaging them, and retaining them so that the SHNA is able to continue to survive and serve this neighborhood. The 3 areas that we will be discussing are Inviting, Welcoming, & Connecting. Katy lead the discussion guided by the Self-Assessment Handout. Clearly we could be doing things better.
