Get Involved!

Quarterly neighborhood meetings are held during the months of March, June, September, and December. They will normally be conducted on the second Monday of the month at 6pm at the Melrose Park community building as well as virtually via Zoom. Everyone is welcome!

We also have an active neighborhood Facebook group. If you are a current neighbor or are in the process of moving to the neighborhood, join the group here >>.

Volunteer opportunity: Saturdays in the park! Contact Ian Hamilton for details about the next garden work day.

Congratulations to Anne and Hank Smith of Maiden Street for claiming this coveted award. Hank reports that they struggle with keeping the native wild vinca under control, but they enjoy bird watching in the evenings and appreciate the safety it provides for feathered friends and the insects that sustain them.
