The last Third Thursday hangout of the year did not disappoint! At least 35 neighbors turned out to mingle, reminisce and spread good cheer. Additionally, the JH crime watch group collected many coats through the generosity of fellow residents.

Happy holidays, everyone!!!

🌱 The funds that JHHD raises through JHHD Memberships, events and donations allows us to give back to our neighborhood in many ways. Last month, we were able to donate $500 to the Lakewood Library Friends who, in turn, funded the Lakewood Branch's Seed Library and gardening programs. See the attached flier to learn about the Lakewood Branch's Seed Library and how you can donate seeds, check out seeds and get involved! Thank you to the Lakewood Library Friends and the Dallas Public Library's Public Service Specialist Teresa Nolen for helping us to play a part in growing vital resources for our community.

🎅🏼 MERRY WAS MADE on Sunday night at the Annual Junius Heights Holiday Happening! Over 100 friends gathered in the frosty December night air on the patio of Garden Cafe for festive fun. Photos were taken with Santa, delicious food was enjoyed, kids made holiday crafts (organized by Mara Rothman), and delicious desserts were judged. Congrats to our Bake-Off Winner Mara Rothman (who, by the way, was also a Blue Ribbon and Best Of Show winner at this year's State Fair of Texas!) and many thanks to our sponsor Preston Stickles REALTOR®, our gracious hosts at Garden Cafe, our food sponsor (Palmer’s Hot Chicken), our alcohol sponsors (Lakewood Brewing Company, Lakewood Medallion Discount Liquor, Times Ten Cellars), and our event co-chairs Michael Driscoll and Shelby Lance. Happy Holidays from the Junius Heights Historic District Board! (Photos by Martha Heimberg)
