PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
Welcome! We’re off and running. CAN got started in mid-January and we are in the process of putting things together. We have filed all the paperwork for the State and IRS. We have started up a newsletter, website, Facebook page and a community survey system. We are monitoring the Planning and Zoning meetings and looking at identifying problem properties in the neighborhood. We have established several neighborhoods with Block Captains. So things are moving forward but much remains to be done.

We would like to set objectives for the civic association for the coming year. There is a Board meeting on March 19th at 3 pm in the Cambridge Library meeting room. The Board will be discussing a possible community social event this summer, as well as ways to increase the number and diversity of our association neighborhoods. As always, Board meetings are open to the public. In addition, we have partnered with MidShore Riverkeepers to help promote their efforts (see “Operation Clean Stream) on page 3) and are meeting with several other organizations that are doing good things in Cambridge.
So, lots of things happening and we need you to lend a hand and help both with ideas and by volunteering. If you have ideas or suggestions for the CAN Board meeting, please send them to me at: Ragtime31@gmail.com or CambridgeCAN@yahoo.com
More to come,
Chuck McFadden, President, CAN
