Do our voices count? I submitted my comments in a while ago. Many neighbors are suspicious given that this is partly sponsored by Venture Richmond and Dominion. Many neighbors think corporate voices may have more weight than citizens’, based on previous experiences. Still, a good time to make grassroots be heard.
Dario Hunter, Presidential candidate and member of the Youngstown, OH Board of Education, visits Richmond, VA to talk about his plan to build a greener and fairer America as well as the strategy to grow the Green Party through the 2020 race and beyond.

Dear Friends and Neighbors
Our Monthly neighborhood association meeting will be held at St Andrews Church at 7pm this Tuesday, June 25th. Really, other than our important updates, there is not much on the agenda except perhaps electing a new Vice President as our sitting VP has moved out of the neighborhood. If you are interested, come state your case.
Please stop by.
Todd Woodson, President
