If anyone in the neighborhood has difficulty getting to the post office, grocery store, dry cleaners, etc., during inclement weather or due to an illness or disability, there is a group of your neighbors who stand ready to make that trip for you. To make space for articles and news, a hard copy of the list will only be printed in the newsletter every three or four months. Please call Dave Smith (704.987.1472) if you wish to be included.
An updated list is online if you're logged in to the members' area.
