We have a sweet-natured boy, Calvin, who will be two in August. He is enrolled in a local daycare, but I am looking for a more caring and gentle environment. If a family here in RW already has a nanny watching similar aged children and would like to spread the expense out (and bring in a playmate) or are interested in going in on a nanny together, please contact:

Colin MacDougal, colin.macdougal at gmail.com or call 554-6151.

Thanks!

There’s still time to join in, email me liz@thekrakows.com.  We also need coolers!!  If you have one (or more) that we can borrow bring ‘em to Casa Krakow at 305 Vale.  Leave them on the porch if we’re not home and please put your name on them so we can get them back to you.

If you have a teen looking for service hours we have openings for them too!  Help with children’s games, concession sales, clean-up? (although, traditionally, clean-up is done by the council!)

Final note, has anyone seen a large flock of rubber duckies???

Hope you’re having a great summer!

See you at the park,

Liz Krakow

I see neighbors outside enjoying our fine June sunshine and it makes me glad to be part of this wonderful community. We’ve got a great line-up of traditional events planned to keep your summer rolling along:

• Friday 7/4: Parade & Party
• Tuesday 8/5 - National Night Out
• Sunday 10/5 - Octo-ber-Que 2008

Of course, there’s nothing better than cruising to a City Council Meeting on 6/18 @ 7 PM. Topics include appointments for open Council seats and commissions, ordinance changes for building codes & signs, utility rates, recycling, and communications.

See you at the parade!
