White's Place Directory Reminder

Hello Everyone,

Just a quick reminder, if you haven't already done so, to complete your household's directory information. We have extended the deadline for the questionnaires to this Sunday July 20th due to very few being completed at this time. Please return them to Sally Emmert (#29) as soon as you can!

If you have lost yours or are in need of another form they are available from Sally Emmert. Otherwise this is a great way to meet neighbors, discover hobbies in common, and is a great way to quickly access a neighbors phone numbers (ie escaped pet, household emergencies, babysitting, other issues of concern). And, best of all, these are completely covered by the dues you have already paid.

Lock your car doors!

FYI, I received an email from Ward 6 Alderman Karen Schmidt advising that several residents in west and central Bloomington have been leaving their cars unlocked. Their cars are being "broken into" and money is being taken.

If you park outside overnight, please LOCK your cars. Also, if you're interested in receiving her periodic emails, please let me know.

Thanks!
