DECA's Night Out........

Our newest addition to the DECA calendar… DECA’s Night Out on Wednesday October 1 at the Flying Pig on King Street.

Come one come all and join your neighbors for a snack and a drink. Line up your babysitters and get out for the evening.

We will see you anytime after 7:30pm. Come when you can, leave when you must.

WANTED: A DECA playgroup.....

Hi

My name is Melani McGuire, we live at 17 Hillside Dr, my 2 kids are Hailey (4 1/2) and Connor (2 1/2) and I am expecting our 3rd baby Dec 1st. I know there used to be a morning play group in the neighborhood and I am wondering if perhaps there is still one or if maybe we could send an email out to see if there is any interest in forming one. I am specifically thinking of the 5 and below age group - I know there aren't too many that age on our street but maybe in the other neighborhoods? How would we best go about finding out if there is interest and setting it up? I will gladly host the first one.....

Thanks so much!

Melani

5 Free Phillies tickets, today Sunday the 14th....

Anyone interested in 5 free Phillies tickets for today's 7:15 game, please call the Beck's. The Friday night game was rained out and this game doesn't fit our schedule. We would hate to see them go to waste! (Sorry for the short notice.)
Call if interested!
Thanks,
The Becks

Some information to pass along from the meeting on 9/7/08…

Back-to-School Ice Cream & Pizza Social and New Neighbor Welcome – come celebrate the start of a new school year, meet new neighbors and enjoy a Saturday night of no cooking!! We’ll order pizza and have make-your-own sundaes. Please bring your own beverages and $10 per family for pizza.

WHEN: Saturday, Sept. 13th, 5:30-7:30 p.m.
WHERE: The Down East Park

Hope to see you then!

Dues – DECA area reps will be collecting neighborhood dues in October. The rate is $20 per household; $15 for seniors. An optional $5 donation will help fund the Sunshine Club, which recognizes the comings and goings of Down East residents. This would include births and deaths, as well as moves into the neighborhood. When you return your dues, make sure to include a current email address to receive DECA info/updates online. This can be done on the DECA web page as well (check the right side of the screen). Thanks in advance for your support.

Fall Fest – Mark your calendars for the annual DECA Fall Fest!

WHEN/ WHERE: Saturday, November 1 from 4:00 – 7:00 p.m. on Beth Lane

Join us for a potluck supper, Halloween costume parade for the kids, and other fall-related activities – including a home brew demonstration by Adam Beck. Some of you tasted Adam's beer at the summer picnic, now you can see how it is actually made. This is in honor of "Teach a Friend to Brew Day."

Families whose last names begin with A - M should bring a dessert to share; N – Z an entrée or side dish. DECA will provide water or lemonade and hot chocolate – it’s BYOB for anything else. Don’t forget to bring your own chairs! RSVP to Karen Bevec (610) 651-5644 or mcbevec@comcast.net by October 25.

And, to get ready for the colder months ahead, we will be having a children’s snow clothes/boots swap table at the Fall Fest. Bring any coats, hats, mittens, snow boots, etc. your kids have outgrown or no longer need. Items should be in good condition. Trade up a size and save the hassle of going out and buying new!

DECA’s Night Out – New to our event calendar!
It’s an evening for adults to bend a few elbows with their neighbors at one of our fine local pubs. Details are coming soon. Look for an email update or posting at the front of the neighborhood. Note: This is not a DECA-funded event, just another opportunity for neighbors to get together.

Attention DECA Pet Owners: When you walk your pet around the neighborhood, please remember to bring a bag to pick up your pet’s waste. We’ve had some complaints about waste not being picked up. Your neighbors thank you in advance for your cooperation!

Attention All Drivers: For everyone’s safety, please be courteous while driving through the neighborhood. Keep your speed down and obey the stops signs. There are a good number of walkers, bikers and other drivers (including school buses) that frequent the neighborhood. Thank you.

Next DECA Meeting – TBA.

Have a fantastic fall season, and a Happy Halloween and Thanksgiving!

Your DECA Board,
Karen Bevec -- President
Chris Brown -- Treasurer
Maria Hueston -- Secretary

DECA Meeting Correction

The date of the meeting has been corrected. It is on Sunday the 7th instead of the 9th.

The fall is drawing near and it is time to start to plan the fall activities so I have scheduled a meeting on Sunday September 7th at 7pm. We will hold it at my house, 254 Swedesford Road. Please join us and help us plan the Fall Fest, ... and new to the calendar, “DECA’S NIGHT OUT,” an evening to bend a few elbows, with your neighbors, at one of our fine local pubs. Those of us with children, line up the babysitters.

Please let me know if you plan to attend the meeting @ MCBEVEC@comcast.net or 610-651-5644.

Please let your neighbors, who don’t have email, know about the meeting.
