Courtesy Reminders –

• All pet owners: please keep an eye on your pets. If they are outside without being on a leash or a tie-up, please make sure they remain in your yard.
• When you walk your pet around the neighborhood, please remember 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!

Thank you… To all those who helped make the DECA picnic a great success:

Mrs. Bushnell – power supply
Becks – beer and music
Bevecs, Meehans, Huestons, Browns – set-up, cooking, clean-up
Chris Brown – tie dye, talent show, arranging the porta-potty
Rita Stern – face painting and crafts

Events like this are possible because of the time and talent of neighbors. Looking to get involved? Let us know…new ideas and help are always welcome!!

Thank you… from the family of Evelyn Hewitt for the donation DECA sent to Paoli Pulmonary Rehab in memory of their mother. She was a forty-six year resident of our neighborhood.

Have a happy and safe Halloween and Thanksgiving!

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