Notice of Annual Meeting, COVID-19 Updates, Blagden Avenue Notice Of Intent To Install Sidewalk

Thu, March 26, 2020 9:26 AM | Anonymous member

The Crestwood Citizens Association Annual Meeting is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, May 19, 2020. If necessary, we will convert the meeting to a conference call or video presentation. 

The officers of the Association consist of a president, a first vice president, a second vice president, a secretary, a communications director, and a treasurer.

If you are interested in serving in one of these positions, please send an email to info@crestwooddc.org by April 24, 2020 with a statement of your goals and plans for the Association. The names and candidate statements will be circulated three weeks before the May meeting. 

Banners Across Crestwood

Crestwood neighbor Frances Burg of the National Children's Museum spearheaded a lovely initiative on our listserv, whereby neighbors crested positive signs on the front of their homes to provide a scavenger hunt for neighborhood kids and inspirational messages for the community.

The initiative was covered by Petworth News, which included photos of many of the signs. The winner of the scavenger hunt won a year-long, family membership to National Children’s Museum, which is a unique hybrid children’s museum and science center, filling a critical void for interactive science, technology, engineering, arts, and math focused learning in the District for children under the age of 12. 

Neighbors Helping Neighbors
CCA Board Members Kathleen Eder and John Favazzo are leading an effort to connect Crestwood neighbors that may need some assistance during the COVID-19 pandemic and neighbors who would like to help. We've had an outpouring of support and offers of assistance for things such as shopping, chatting, checking in, tech support, etc. 

Please email neighborly@crestwooddc.org if you know of anyone that may need something or if you have any ideas on ways that we can help alleviate issues caused by social distancing and the closing of non-essential businesses in the District. 

Blagden Avenue Notice Of Intent To Install Sidewalk
The District Department of Transportation has issued a long-awaited notice of intent to install a sidewalk on Blagden Avenue between Mathewson and Allison St. The last day to provide comments is Monday, April 27, 2020. Under the proposal, the sidewalk will be built in the roadway, and Blagden Avenue will be narrowed to allow for the installation. 

Crestwood Connectors
Thanks to neighbors Rachel Homer and Carol Fishback for a push to re-energize the block captain program, where neighbors act as a block lead for checking on neighbors, getting information distributed, etc. Another important role of the block caption will be to help put together an update of the neighborhood directory, which has not been published for a while. 

Thanks to everyone that has already offered to serve as a Crestwood Connector. If you'd like to take on this role for your block (or your side of your block), please let us know at neighborly@crestwooddc.org.
