Social Coordinating Group Update

Hello SCG Members and Working Group Leaders

General Updates

1. Neighbourhood Clean Up in Mount Pleasant
May 10, Saturday, from 9 to noon
The Carolina Group (local residents) is hosting its annual clean up around the Carolina Street and 11th Avenue area. They welcome us to join in. I'll will be attending, call me if you need more information.

I know that this is a great opportunity for some of the Working Groups that are already talking about doing their own clean ups; and so this event would be a great way to see how one is actually implemented and to talk to some of the local organizers on "how best to" set up for one your own group in the future - just a thought.

2. MAY 13 SCG meeting #4
I will send out an agenda for next SCG meeting on May 6 (as a reminder please let me know if you have any agenda items, etc).

3. Mount Pleasant Social Issues Website
Please check out the website to see the latest Action Work Plans (under 4 Top Social Issues) that the four working groups have created so far. Also in the 'SCG Spotlight Box' there are other local community events and presentations that might be of interest to you. http://vancouver.ca/commsvcs/planning/cpp/mountpleasant/social/index.htm

That's it for now.
