22nd Annual A Big Success

The 22nd annual Meeting of the PNA was a big success. Over 250 came to hear the debate on VERITAS, enjoy the good food and connect with neighbors.

New board members are: Savalas Colbert, Susanne Griffin, Wes Terry and Rev. Ronald Williams. Board members re-elected are: Joseph Blanks and Rosalina Conchas. Jim Ries, who was appointed to the board during the year, also won a seat. Full board list

We received 55 new and renewed memberships. Many members filled out our survey and we wll be colating those responses.

A big thanks to the Farmer's Market for their generous donations and Pico merchants who contributed. A special thanks to the Virginia Ave Park staff. Thanks also goes to the Red Cross, Graffiti Abatement Team, Green Team, SMPD, and the SM History Museum for coming and sharing what they do in the neighborhood.

Please email us any comments you have on the event.

Our central event was a debate on VERITAS, an important Santa Monica ballot measure that will be voted upon in November 2002. Below are some links that might help you understand what the VERITAS measure is all about.
