Upcoming WAWA Solar Eclipse Event



Good afternoon,

I hope you are doing well. My name is Chanté Lively, and I am the Environmental Education Coordinator with WAWA.

I wanted to make the NPU aware of our Solar Eclipse event happening April 8 from 1:30-4:30 PM. Hosted on the Atlanta Black Cracker Field, there will be possibly around 100-150 participants spending time on the field enjoying this special event. We have advised them to carpool and be respectful of parking limitations in the neighborhood.

In case, you didn't know Atlanta will experience a partial solar eclipse, where the Moon blocks part of the Sun. The eclipse will begin at 1:45PM, the eclipse will reach its maximum coverage at 3:04PM, and the eclipse will end at 4:21PM.

Feel free to come out and enjoy this special event with us!

Senior Lawncare Service Meeting TOMORROW, 3/27, 7pm

Greetings! This is a message from Nick Hess, chair of the Assistant Services Committee and the administrator of the Senior Lawncare Service.  This program, which provides free lawn care for our senior residents, has become a bit of a victim of its own popularity.

Last year, we exhausted our funding in two and half months, running out in June. Since the goal of the program is to prevent our seniors from exerting themselves outdoors in our brutal summer months, we're now going over strategies to stretch out our funding so that it covers through at least September. Nobody wants to trim such a useful program! But if we can't cover June through September we put some of our most vulnerable neighbors at risk. 

I'm inviting citizens of NPU-S, especially our seniors, to attend this meeting so we can develop an approach that is satisfactory to everyone involved. In my years as Chair, I was always impressed by the level of creativity and thoughtfulness that our NPU has shown on some of our trickiest issues. I'm positive that, working together, we can solve this one.
