Coffeetime... Sat., May 5th... 8am

Just a quick reminder -- It's coffeetime for any neighbors who'd like to get to know others here in the general Clay Terrace neighborhood area. Everyone welcome...

...this Saturday (5/5/2007)... 8am at Paradise Bakery.

A Sign of Thanks...

[Reminder... anyone can add pictures to the ClayTerrace collection of photos -- Just tag your photos with 'clayterrace'. Want help? Come to the 'First Saturday's Coffeetime'.]



We just wanted to post this as a special thanks to David Klingensmith, our Carmel Street Commissioner... for adding this sign recently.



It has now greatly reduced the unnecessarily traffic coming into our subdivision... (not to mention, our driveways).

Our children thank you, Mr. Klingensmith for making the subdivision safer as a result.

Van Go...

Recognize any of these 'Katrina' painters from our neighborhood?

Google Reader. If you're not yet familiar with it, it's a handy page to use to pull in the headlines & stories & new stuff from YOUR FAVORITE SITES. And there no doubt are other tips you can share with others as well.



Afterward, some of us will then be going down to the UBcafe area with some of the friends we've come to know, and we'll be helping them with a neighborhood cleanup there. Any of you are welcome to go along after our coffeetime.

So come join us for coffee -- it's open to everyone in the Clay Terrace area.

And as always... Even if you can't make it tomorrow... If you know of NEEDS in the neighborhood area... contact us... we always try to pray about such things, and would try to help somehow if we can.
