Upcoming 2020 events including March meeting with Corporal McBride

Neighbors, 

As 2020 gets underway there are many exciting things in the works for Hungerford!  Read on for updates...  

Cops & Donuts and March Civic Association Meeting
Do you have a question for our local Police? Now is your chance to get answers! Corporal Kevin McBride from Rockville Police Department will be attending our Hungerford Civic Association meeting on Saturday March 14 (2 p.m. @ Elwood Smith). He is ready to discuss our neighborhood concerns. Please reply with any topics you would like addressed or answer the poll on our Facebook page.

Directly following this session please join us for a general meeting of the civic association. The agenda includes updates on the current status of the association, the Rockville Capital Improvement Plan, and events for the upcoming year.

Rockville Capital Improvement Plan
In an effort to show the City that our neighbors support (or oppose) our proposed enhancements for the upcoming budget plan, could you please take 60 seconds and fill out this private survey?

Spring Plant Exchange
Calling all gardeners! Do you have plants to divide and wish you could trade them with a neighbor for some new variety in your yard? Are you starting seeds for a summer garden and have more than you can use? Save the date for the first ever Hungerford Plant Exchange on April 26th. Stay tuned for further details.

Neighborhood Resource List
There are often times when we need work done on houses or are looking for other trusted resources. If you have contractors, electricians, plumbers, house cleaners, etc that you love and can vouch for please send in their information and it will be added to an upcoming resource section of the neighborhood website.

Are you a resident of Hungerford and serving on a commission for the city? Let us know! We have residents on the ethics and traffic commissions. Who else is giving back to our city?

Communication
To clear up any confusion, the use of the yahoo list serv continues, as does the Facebook group. It is true that many features of Yahoo groups are disappearing, however the list serv function remains and there is no plan for our use of it to change. Please also follow our website for updates on events and meeting minutes. A calendar feature has been added to the bottom of the home page recently. If you have any events that you would like added please email me directly (rebecca.plante@gmail.com.)

Spread the Word
We have many new additions to the neighborhood. Help us spread the word by letting your neighbors (especially new arrivals!) know about the list serv, Facebook page, and website.

Looking forward to seeing everyone!
