President’s Letter
	Hello everyone! Summer is here and so is the construction! Everywhere you turn it seems a road is blocked or traffic is reduced to one lane. Hang in there and be patient as it will be over soon, and the end result will benefit all of us. I would like to welcome two new restaurants to the neighborhood. Sheridan's Irish Pub and Chipotle Mexican Grill are now open for business. Both are located along Mt. Hope Ave. and great tasting food is served at both establishments (specialties are shepherd's pie at Sheridan's and burritos at Chipotle) They look forward to serving you. I encourage you to check them out.
The Summer edition of the Neighborhood View is the first this year being delivered to your door. We plan to do this for our summer edition as a way of introducing our association to new residents in the neighborhood. Our other 3 issues are sent electronically (sign up here at umhn.com) or can be mailed for a $4.00 subscription fee. In this edition we are highlighting all the groups/ committees involved in the Neighborhood Association. If you are interested in joining one of these groups, or starting one of your own, please contact me at President@umhn.com If you’re new to the neighborhood, welcome! The Upper Mt. Hope Neighborhood Association believes a strong neighborhood is an involved neighborhood. If you’re reading surfing this web site chances are you’re interested in what’s happening in your neighborhood. What’s happening is the result of a group of neighbors taking time out to improve the lives of those around them. If what you’re reading interests you, please contact us. If there is something that you don’t agree with or if you would like to see a change, then I encourage you to get involved. Joining a neighborhood organization such as UMHN is a great way to meet other neighbors and give back to the community. We meet on a monthly basis – every 3rd Monday at 7pm, at St. Anne Church. See our Calendar for details. I look forward to seeing you in the neighborhood and at our neighborhood functions such as the National Night Out celebration we have planned on August 3; see details above. Have a wonderful summer, .........Dan
