November, 2016

2016/11/8 9:38:42

 November, 2016 – Great news: the historical marker for Norwood Park has arrived! This thing is literally decades in the making, long sought by so many who love Norwood. Watch for an announcement of a dedication/setting event soon.

We’re wrapping up all the requirements for this year’s tree maintenance plan and hope to have our awesome arborist, Jason Derks, out there soon. There are some particularly exciting aspects of the tree work this year that will improve the viewing experience at Norwood, which is already fabulous. Looking forward to that.

Watch for a cover article on the Norwood project in the Dec. issue of Life in Travis Heights magazine. We’re excited about this opportunity to share the architectural plans with the neighborhood. Our thanks to LiTH’s terrific publisher, Sara Wright.

Moving forward on some important grant applications and continuing our visits with community leaders at the site. Kudos to our Grounds Committee for keeping things looking spiffy out there: Cynthia Petrick, Nic Atwood, and Wolf Sittler, and to our friend & volunteer, Joe Petrick, who mows like nobody’s business. Thanks to all of you!
