President’s Message

Spring is upon us and we are excited to bring three timely programs over the next three months.

April 4th, at 7:00 pm we will have “Get Ready for the Big One,” with Sandi Doughton author of Full-Rip 9.0: The Next Big Earthquake in the Pacific Northwest and Cindi Barker, coordinator of the Seattle Emergency HUBS (disaster relief gathering places if disaster strikes).

This should be a lively discussion and one that is a passionate issue in the minds of many. Your Board Members, Tracy Bier and Trevor Lalish-Menagh have arranged this program with the idea in mind it is the LCC’s duty to provide information to our residents in case of an earthquake. Recently a small 2.7 quake served as a reminder of this.

In May, Shanna Crutchfield who is a Principal Consultant of Visions of Equity, will be heading a panel to discuss racism, inclusion, neighborhoods and how we can all best live in harmony.

Finally, our June program before our summer break will honor those silent heroes who enhance people’s lives on a daily basis, but sometimes are so good, we forget to remember to thank them.

Spring is here and it is time to embrace our beautiful neighborhood area. I encourage you to get involved. Make a difference. Join our lively, growing group of neighbors.

I wish you wonderful blue skies, abundant sunshine and friendships that nurture your being.
