Grand Crossing Park Neighborhood Network
"...What YOU can do for YOUR Neighborhood"
Dearest Neighbors & Stakeholders,
Our 2014 National Night Out event is Tuesday
August 5th 6:30 p.m. in the 7300 block of Drexel. "National Night
Out" is a display of neighbor solidarity against crime and violence. In recent
years we have been executing a plan to grow this annual event into a large scale
yearly tradition here in the south side. Make no mistake, this is a very
important event!
Computer problems have rendered our network capability to almost nothing over the
last month.The spreading of the word has been consequently thwarted as a result.
It is vital we have peak participation from our associates as 2014 continues to
be a pivotal year in growing our grass roots connections into a viable force
against crime and violence in Chicago, and repair our image to the world. We
need for our network associates, who are not otherwise engaged, to kick in and
attend this event..
As always we are depending on people collaborate,
step up step out and support this very vital capacity building event. By
collaborate we mean kick in resources to make things happen.If you are
within earshot of this email you have a chance to contribute to this effort of
violence reduction it is all important, it is our everything at this point in
time. Together, we must sustain our efforts to stop the violence.
Although there are large "CAPS" celebrations around the
city we must never forget that "National Night Out" is a grassroots
initiative, from the people, not the government, It is neighbors - neighbor
to neighbor, neighborhood to neighborhood standing up in solidarity with each
other. In many ways this is humanity's highest calling - working together for
peace on earth!. The CAPS takeover, in many ways is debilitating to our
community because it allows people to once again depend on the government to
solve all it's problems.Grassroots must remain as independent as
possible for a healthy community.
Spread the word. This Tuesday- get involved!
Under the spirit of the revitalization of Chicago, I hope
to see you there.
