Well, the last couple of weeks Martha and I have been busy creating something new which I thought may be of interest to our neighbors. I had mentioned previously that I had been involved with the Neighborhood Leadership Program and the “Keys to the City” event. Well, one thing which came out of those was a growing awareness of the need for the various neighborhood associations in the city to share news and information. So we’ve created:

Columbia Neighborhood Alliance

Discussion forum for Columbia, MO neighborhood associations.

This forum is open to one and all, and you are welcome to participate. Particularly if you have information or experience to share with others who are looking to make their neighborhood association more effective, and to help thereby to improve our city. Stop by and give us a visit!
