Happy Holidays!

I hope your holiday season and end of 2013 is going just as well as mine has.

There are a few major things that are of interest to South Frankfort and I need to pass along the information to you.

First – the annual Frankfort Jaycee Christmas parade scheduled for tomorrow, Saturday, 12/7 has been cancelled due to the inclement weather. At the moment it has not been rescheduled, but if we hear word, then please check the SFNA facebook page.

Second – earlier this year, SFNA participated in a workshop that was funded by a Greening America’s Capitals grant. We are pleased to announce that the design plan has been finalized and here is a link – http://www.epa.gov/piedpage/pdf/greencapitals/greening-americas-frankfort.pdf.

With this information, several of our neighbors are collecting signatures to present to the City Commission on Dec. 9.  There will be a table in the Paul Sawyier Public Library lobby on Sunday afternoon (12/8) if you’re interested in supporting this.  You could also email your name and address to Jen Williamson at jen@spanglerwilliamson.com.

Also, if any of you would be interested in collecting 10 signatures, please print out the attached petition and drop it off on Sunday at the Library, or to Natalie Wilkerson at 510 Ann anytime before Monday at 3 pm.

The urgency about this petition is that the City Commission has called a special meeting on Monday, 12/9 to discuss projects for 2014 and we encourage you to review the information and let Jen or Natalie know if you are interested in supporting the projects. A copy of Monday’s city commission work session and special called meeting agenda is also attached.

Third – Saturday, 12/7 from 11-1:30 is the Simon House’s Christmas Market and Brunch at the Frankfort Country Club. If you are interested in venturing out tomorrow, then please consider stopping by and supporting one of our great neighborhood organizations.

Fourth – The SFNA Board is planning on meeting soon to discuss speaker ideas for the January 2014 SFNA Quarterly meeting. Please respond to this e-mail if you have a suggestion.

Fifth – When students return to schools on 1/6/14 after the winter break which starts on 12/23, graduating seniors will have an opportunity to review and submit an application for the SFNA Randy Bacon Memorial Scholarship. The application will be delivered to the guidance counselor that week for distribution to the seniors.

Please stay safe and warm this weekend during this winter weather.

We wish you and your family all the best during this holiday season!

Katie Carney (Bond) and everyone on the SFNA Board
