On May 19th The Leander Foundation held an event at the newly inaugurated Leander Senior Activity Center to celebrate its fifth anniversary and to present the findings from its most recent study, A Comparison of Leander to its Neighboring Cities.

The event was a success, with wine and hors d'oeuvres served to a full house comprised of local residents, Leander city officials and Leander city council members.

THANK YOU LEANDER! Thanks to all its board members, past and present, that have helped make this organization a success:

Jenni Hearn Austin
Carla Bodden-St James
Dino Bullara
Krisanne Coleman Naudin
Tanya Clawson
Steve Hanes
Kathy Howell
Andrew Naudin
Matt Pitcher
Annette Degani Sponseller
Carlos St. James

Join The Leander Foundation as it celebrates its fifth anniversary with An Evening with the Foundation, Tuesday May 19 from 6-8 pm at the Leander Senior Activities Center.

We'll present our latest study, A Comparison of Central Texas Cities, and have a lot of information about Leander itself -- such as the image below showing the ten intersections that are the location of most vehicle collisions. Which ones and why -- and how do they rank?

Please register as seating is limited and we need to know how much to serve that evening!

The Leander Foundation, along with Keep Leander Beautiful and local girl scouts did some weeding, planted new flowers and mulched (thank you Lowe's Home Improvement!) at the Leander Presbyterian Church today (Good Friday).

Appreciate the help of councilman Andrew Naudin too.

After the coming rains it’ll look even prettier!

Is Austin, Texas' weirdest city? Maybe — but it's not the best city to move to within Texas, the report found.
