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.
