Get Together – Sunday, May 17

We reserved the Pflugerville Rec Center front room for a Get Together from 3 to 5 PM on THIS Sunday, MAY 17th

What is a Get Together?

You know sometimes emails just aren’t enough to get people interested. You need to meet and talk things over person-to-person. We invite you to stop over and say hello and share your thoughts on how to make our neighborhood a better place to live. Its informal. No arm twisting. Everyone is welcome.

We just want to make a difference, get acquainted, and share ideas. We are the Grapevine!!

  • We are taking care of plants at the entrance signs on Gatlinburg and Dove Haven.
  • We helped collect stuff for the April City-wide Clean-up.
  • We have contacted City code enforcement about broken fences and trailers parked on grass.
  • We share information about City, County, and State programs.
  • We volunteer to lend a hand to neighbors.
  • We have an email list. To join, send an email to subscribe-gna@yahoogroups.com

We invite you to join our network and Get Together.
