The YOM is presented from April – September.

From: "DEBBIE BANKO"
To: Southern Heights Neighborhood Association
Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2007 11:04 AM
Subject: Christmas


I want to take this opportunity to thank the Southern Heights Neighborhood Association for your kindness and generosity in helping the Lawndale family at Christmas. I want you to know how much this family appreciated their gifts and donations of food. There was such excitement and relief when the items were delivered. They would not have
had a Christmas without your help.


I want you to know that this was definitely a family in need and you showed the true meaning of Christmas to them. Thank you for giving your time and money to a family you do not even know.

Sincerely,

Debbie Banko

“Promoting A Better

Neighborhood & Community”

It's more than a motto - it's a reality!!

 

 



Janie and Bo Clanton of Jim Street are long time SHNA residents and members of the Southern Heights Neighborhood Association. At the March meeting Janie asked if anyone could help her get assistance from the city to remove some large tree limbs that had fallen on her property. SHNA was formed on the premise that “Neighbors help Neighbors”, so rather than wait, SHNA members showed up to help.

“Chainsaw” Jerry Coleman cut down additional branches while Ruth Fondon and Jermaine (The Clanton’s grandson) pulled the tree limbs to the curb. Time it took…about 30 minutes.

Value to the Clanton Family……
PRICELESS!

"Green Arts in the Park"
Saturday, June 28, 2008
10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
James Theron Nichols Park


The Southern Heights Neighborhood Association will sponsored an arts and crafts event last Saturday in Theron Nichols Park. The Association sold food to raise funds for the benevolent activities they have throughout the year, and to bring the neighborhood closer together through community activities. Activities included Papermaking, Dying T-Shirts, Pinch Pots, and Sock Puppet Making. The entertainment was performed by the Partlow Drummers. The SHNA would like to thank Regina Holt and Sherrie Cochran for helping organize the event along with the SHNA residents, the NAYC, the City, and all of its sponsors.
