Message from the Clairmont Heights Civic Association President, Bert Ackermann

Hey Neighbors,

I’ve been spending time at home sheltering in place. I’m keeping local and walking around the neighborhood and seeing us all doing our part with the social distancing. Good job everyone.

My walks are taking me through the woods of Ira B. Melton Park. You should check it out. A lot of good work is being done to improve the trails and clear the underbrush by the Friends of Ira B. Melton Park. I’m happy to say that the CHCA Board unanimously approved an improvement grant request to support their work. You can walk the boardwalk that was installed last year as Dean Sprinkle’s Eagle Scout project. Great stuff.

There’s a lot of good information posted on our neighborhood website and Facebook page from our neighbors in Public Health. Also a lot of uplifting messages about our surrounding community. I encourage everyone to visit the sites often. Post to the Facebook page and keep the attitudes positive, not only during this time but all the time.

I’m sorry that our planned Spring Party is postponed. Keep a lookout for notification of the rescheduled time, most probably towards the end of the summer.

Keep in touch with your neighbors, make sure everyone is okay. Let’s be careful out there.

Bert Ackermann

IS YOUR MEMBERSHIP IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION CURRENT?

Membership in Clairmont Heights Civic Association (CHCA) is open to anyone 18 years of age or older who own or reside within the CHCA boundaries. Membership is on a household basis and dues are $25. Our membership year runs from June 1 - May 31.

How we use your Membership dues:

Neighborhood Improvements: We buy plants for neighborhood entrances and help fund additions to Melton Park. We provide grants for things like our annual Graduation Banners. We mow common areas when necessary.

Social gatherings: CHCA sponsors our neighborhood’s annual Halloween potluck and occasionally other cookouts and Family Movie Nights. We try to provide opportunities to meet your neighbors and have a good time.

Communications: The Association website, this monthly eNewsletter, and the neighborhood Facebook group are all mechanisms that we employ to share information about the community. With separate committees addressing traffic issues, zoning and development concerns, and schools, our Board learns about a wide variety of things that we share throughout the year.
