ALBEMARLE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION MEETINGS AND 50TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION

Congratulations to the Albemarle Neighborhood Association on its 50th Anniversary!

-----------------------------------------------------------

   The Albemarle Neighborhood Association will hold two meetings this Spring. The first will be on Wednesday, March 15th, 2023 at 6:30 pm. (rescheduled for Wednesday, March 29th). At this time that will probably be a zoom meeting. We will attempt to have issues and guests that are important to our community.

   The second meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 31st, 2023. It will also start at 6:30 pm. We are not certain as to where or how that meeting will take place. There are a few options that may be available to us.

   We chose May 31st for the meeting as it will mark 50 years to the day that our organization was founded. We had our first meeting on May 31st, 1973. A half century of serving our community. This is a milestone that we should all be proud of. We would like to pay tribute to some of those members who helped to make the ANA one of the most successful and longest enduring community organizations in our city.

   If we have this in-person meeting either indoors or outdoors on Albemarle Road, as always refreshments will be supplied by Foodtown.

   Hopefully, this will be an exciting Spring for an organization that has helped shape this area of Kensington. We will invite community leaders and elected officials to the meeting.

Sincerely
Larry Jayson
President
