Hello Neighbors!
A reminder that our Annual Chili Dinner and Neighborhood Association Board Election will be held on Wednesday, October 28, at MadJax at 6:30 PM. Delicious chili, including a vegan option, will be served. All dues-paying members may vote in the Board Election; annual dues are $10. Zach Gullion of the Muncie Land Bank will be our meeting speaker. He will be talking about the work they are doing at the Land Bank, how that work is empowered by partnerships at the neighborhood level, and how East Central residents can get involved or engage with that work. Here is a link to bios of neighbors interested in running for Board seats and information on how to vote by proxy: https://muncie-ecna.org/elections/
A reminder that Washington Street from Monroe to Hackley will be closed on Halloween night for the safety and fun of our fabulous trick or treaters and their families and friends. Trick or treating will run from 5 PM until 8 PM. There will be games, music, sidewalk chalk, and more! If you would like to set out a table to hand out candy/treats to trick or treaters, please email your address to [email protected] and we will add your house to a neighborhood trick or treating map.
The capital campaign for the Emily Kimbrough Museum is still ongoing. We are currently awaiting final news on an Indiana Historic Preservation grant that we submitted. We hope to hear about that soon. More details about the capital campaign and a way to donate are here: https://muncie-ecna.org/capital-campaign/
