It saddens me to say this but the block party will not be going on this year. I tried to get everyone's signatures but was unable to. I had no help in getting the signatures so I was only able to get about 30 out of the 53 houses that are on our block. I called the town and they said that we need to have more than that, it has to be more of a majority that sign the petition. Since there seems to be not a lot of interest in the party, I decided not to push it any further. For the few of you who gave money or checks, I will refund them to you this week. As for the checks, if you would like, I can just shred them or drop them off at your house if you'd prefer. Just let me know. I will be mailing out another mailing letting everyone know that the party is cancelled and will be looking for ideas and co-coordinators to do this for next year to make it more successful. This is definitely not a job for one person to do.

If you have any questions, please call me, 631/424-5112 or stop by at #45.

It might just happen!!!

We are trying very hard to get this going. There is still time to get the signatures in for the petition to close the street for the party. If I can get your help, we can get all the signatures needed THIS WEEKEND. And, we are starting to collect some money but it's slowly trickling in.
Remember, you don't have to give $50, give whatever you can afford. It's all for the party, the more money we get, the more fun things we get. But, if we can't afford much, we can still party and have fun.
If you know of anyone that can help out, DJ, band, etc. let me know! That would save us money.

OK, so please get in touch with me and let's get this party going!!!

424-5112 I'm at #45 Oakley, at the corner of Sibley.
