For those of you not on the CHA mailing list…
CHA fall general meeting
The Cobble Hill Association invites the entire community to our annual fall general meeting. We will provide updates on all our various projects and neighbourhood concerns, including Brooklyn Bridge Park, 182-194 Atlantic Avenue, and our upcoming fifttieth-anniversary dinner. The main theme of the meeting will be ‘LICH: Hospital in Crisis’. Our featured guests will be soon-to-be State Senator-Elect Daniel Squadron, Arnold Licht and Toomas Sorra of the LICH doctors’ group, and Dominick Stanzione, the interim CEO of LICH.
What: CHA fall general meeting.
When: Thursday, November 13, 2008 at 7.30 p.m.
Where: LICH conference rooms A and B.
Joined CHA back in July, well I am assuming I joined b/c they cashed my check, but I haven’t received anything from them at all… Not even a “thanks for joining!”. I even said I would like to help volunteer and still no one contacted me. Hhhmmmm….. disappointing and a waste of $$ so far.
I think it’s just a matter of the CHA not being nearly as involved as other neighborhood associations. Like you, I expected some confirmation… then about 6 months after paying my initial dues and checking the same boxes, I was added to a mailing list — which usually consisted of nothing more than alternate side parking memos.
Although I was out of town and missed the election of the new Association President Jeff Strabone, it seems that he’s trying to make the organization more open and active. He’s even blogging! (http://cobblehillassociation.blogspot.com/)
