Subscribing to the Neighborhood EMail List

Hi Neighbors,

We’ve had some questions about getting onto the neighborhood listserve. It is a two-step process.

1.  You must become a member of the association and pay your $10 dues. You can do this in two ways.

  • a. Join online at http://bhna.net/membership.html You can use the paypal link on the right-hand side. If you don’t have a paypal account, it’s pretty easy to set one up.
  • b. Join by mail at http://bhna.net/form.html Print out the form and send it to the address on the form. There is a place to check whether or not you want to join the listserve on this form. If you check the box, you will be added automatically.

2. Once you are a member (remember this listserve is a privilege of membership.) Visit http://bhna.net/listserver.html and click on the link that says barton_hills-subscribe@yahoogroups.com to send a message to our membership coordinator/Vice President Penley McQueen. He will approve listserve ownership after verifying that you are a member.

You can also renew at the next neighborhood meeting, which is on January 26th at 7 p.m. or by cutting out the form that is in every newsletter and distributed to 1200 households in our neighborhood every quarter and mailing it to the address on the form.

If you have applied and would like to join but still haven’t heard anything, you can let Penley McQueen penley_mcqueen@yahoo.com know. But please be patient. We are a completely volunteer-run organization.

Speaking of which, MEMBERSHIPS ARE DUE. They renew annually in January. Although the crime is terrible, it is nice to see a little uptick in membership because of it.  One of the association’s big goals this year is to increase membership in the association and the number of people on the listserve.

Warmly,

Pull out your compass and get set for another adventurous carnival at Barton Hills Elementary School!

If you’ve never been to the annual fundraiser get ready, you’re in for a treat! This Friday, October 23rd, from 6-9pm hundreds of neighbors will converge upon the elementary school to jump in bouncy houses, throw beanbags at their favorite teachers hoping they will get dunked, eat all sorts of delicious treats, play games, win prizes, run shrieking through a maze and generally have the best time ever!

This year’s theme is exploration – think maps, oceanic creatures, ice fishing, a chopstick challenge and food from every continent – there’s something everyone will enjoy! So pull on your hiking books and climb Mt. Everest to the
best carnival yet!

We invite you to come and bid on our wonderful Silent Auction baskets (by Ms. Becky from old Barton Hills carnival days) and incredible items and services too numerous to name, pet those adorable animals from Fry’s Animal Farm-Petting Zoo, play with the clowns, and have fun at our games for all ages.

There will also be a pie contest, wine toss, kid’s activities such as craft tables, face painting, and stuffed animal walk. We will be selling cactus and aloe babies from our abudant flower bed on the corner to benefit the gardens at St. Mark’s so we can continue to beautify the neighborhood. As always Maggie’s Cafe will be open and this year we have veggie burgers and kids meals.

Proceeds benefit the church and its Outreach programs.

For more info contact St. Mark’s Church at 444-1449. As always thank you neighbors for supporting the Barton Hills School and St. Mark’s Church through the years. We live in such a great neighborhood! Let’s have fun this weekend and enjoy the beautiful weather.
