Re: [Chat] Recycling Problems
I'm not sure that info is entirely accurate. After the city reversed its decision to require every neighborhood to put their recycling in the front several years ago, it named specific blocks in CV that had to continue to put theirs at the front because their alleys were too narrow for the larger trucks. Many were in the area mentioned, but not all. The west side of Abell, for instance (at least the 3000 block), could handle the trucks, and they routinely go down the alley. If I recall correctly, one of the neighborhood newsletters listed where each block had to put their recycling at the time the decision was made. If anyone still has that info, it would be great to make it public again, because I agree that it's a waste of city resources to have to collect from both the front and back of houses. -jon --- Linda Forlifer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The alleys east of Guilford and north of 30th are > narrow, not like the named alleys west of Guilford > Avenue.

[Chat] Fwd: Camp Success
This seems to me to be a very worthwhile cause. Please try to help. Steve. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Steve: Please post on the CV discussion list and your quad list. Thanks. To all: A lady by the name of Reba Bullock, who is the Director of Camp Success run at the Episcopl Church of St, Michael and All Angels that is located in the Barclay-Greenmount community of north central Baltimore is running a six week academic and cultural enrichment summer camp designed for children, ages five through twelve. The cost for this camp experience is $300. per student and runs for six weeks from June 30th through August 8th, 2008. This is a worthwhile program aimed at keeping the youngest of us safe and off the streets during a very lazy time of the year and offers to the students breakfast and lunch. There are currently 10 students in need of this camp whose families cannot afford to pay for this camp. We have sponsored one of the children, name unknown on the hope that it will keep this child safe from all that is happening in the communities of Baltimore. Please consider sponsoring a youngster and if you cannot afford the full amount, then please make a contribution in whatever amount you can afford. I think that it is worthwhile. You can contact Ms. Bullock at 410 467 3950 or [EMAIL PROTECTED] and make a committment to help a youngster this year keep safe.

[Chat] 2625 Guilford
Great news! Renovation has begun at 2625 Guilford! The house was purchased by St. Ambrose from the City and has been abandoned for 10 years and has always been the eye-sore of the block, not to mention a common place for people to dump trash and for juveniles to hang out and smoke pot. They have already made tremendous progress (I peaked in a window). And, with the recent renovation next door at 2623 (which really needed it) this is very exciting news in what has been a rough spring with all the crime on our block and surrounding blocks. See ya'll at the Festival!
