Service Messages

Good Neighbor’s Service

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. During the next several months, an effort will be made to update the list and to add it as a separate entry on the website. To make space for articles and news, a hard copy of the list will only be printed in the newsletter every two or three months. Please call Dave Smith (704.987.1472) if you wish to be included.

LOOKING FOR HOLIDAY DECORATIONS?

St. Alban’s Church Greenery Sale

Order holiday wreaths and garlands right in the neighborhood from St. Alban’s Church. These wreaths and garlands are handcrafted by the same company that supplies greenery for the Biltmore House and the N.C. Governor’s Mansion. They are guaranteed to be full, fragrant and fresh. This Blue Ridge Mountain tree farm takes pride in the premium quality of its product. All proceeds will benefit the Parish Life Committee.

Wreaths may be ordered in various sizes and are offered in four choices (Fraser fir, boxwood, bayleaf, and mixed greenery). Garlands may be ordered from one of three choices (white pine, Fraser fir, and mixed greenery).

For information and order forms, call Pat Stenhouse at 704.895.1900. Orders must be received by November 13th. Greenery must be picked-up at 115 Caldwell Lane on Sunday, December 7th (9:00 a.m. until noon).

This is the perfect way to order for the Winter Holiday Decorations Contest.
