We at the Redwood Neighborhood Association have always been dedicated to making Redwood a better place to live. In fact our (un)official slogan is "Neighbors Helping Neighbors." But our mission can only be brought to life with the support of you, our neighbors!
The Redwood Neighborhood Association is seeking new members to attend our once-a-month meetings and help us to realize the community's true wishes for improvement. Not only will you get to stay informed of what the town government is up to, but that same government will get to know your opinions and interests first hand.
We meet the SECOND MONDAY OF EVERY MONTH AT 7 PM, at the Redwood Historical Society in the old bank, right in downtown Redwood.
Here's a short list of what we've accomplished so far in our efforts to revitalize Redwood:
• The construction of a pavilion and park (assisted by Hearts for Youth)
• The construction and organization of community gardens in the park area
• Established a walking trail
• Organized a Farmer's Market every Saturday during the growing season
• Organized Redwood walks
• Formed a Business Committee
• Formed a Neighborhood Watch
• Tore down the old Robinson Building
• Founded the Sunshine Committee to welcome new folks to town
• Hosted two annual Family & Friends Days
• Hosted a Harvest Event
• Hosted a Community Day
• Have started forming a Redwood Master Plan for Revitalization (any ideas??)
And here's a short list of what is currently on our to do list:
• Forming an Art Council with local business Better Farm
• Researching possible water power for the town
• Organizing a Redwood Appearance
• Continuing improvements on Felder Park (grills, security lights, Little League field)
• Continue the Redwood Master Plan
Have an opinion on anything you see listed? Want us to address anything not listed? Well, then we hope to see you on the next SECOND MONDAY OF THE MONTH AT 7PM!
