I am full of gratitude as I write this article to you, and hope it finds you well! As we say goodbye to 2017 we anticipate great things for the New Year. One of my favorite things about a new year is the hope and joy that it brings, as well as excitement. With that being said, I truly believe our neighborhood will continue to prosper in 2018.

Since the elections in September, your executive committee has been meeting every month continuing to discuss and debate the changes to the neighborhood covenants and by-laws that were suggested during the summer of 2016. It has been a privilege to serve as your President during this process and I would like some input about changes you’d like to see in these documents at the March general meeting (Thursday, March 15th, 7p.m., First Christian Church). There are many important issues that will come before our neighborhood in 2018 and I need to hear directly from you about your concerns. Since the 1980s, Wellington Northeast has been a source of inspiration as we look to the future. We want to know where you want us to go next. This is your chance to help shape the future of our neighborhood.

I thank you for a great 2017 and in 2018, I look forward to turning our dreams into realities this year.
