The 3 Logo Choices and the Winner

Our president, Don Essig, recently sent an email to the entire neighborhood to vote for the logo that will be placed on 12 signs around our neighborhood for the city's "placemaking" grant we received.  The voting has been completed and Option A, the logo design with the hawk, has won.  The logo will now be colored by the design team and the signs fabricated and installed

Entry Way update Aug 2023

Photo Update of Spring Entry Way Project

The plantings from our spring project are growing!   Our entry way beautifcation project is getting better by the day.  There will be a few more native plants added this fall.

Boise Mayor's Monarch Challenge

The Boise Mayor has sent information to our neighborhood to help encourage the Monarch Butterfly's habitat.  The mayor has also included some links to report Monarch Butterfly sitings.  Please read the Mayor's letter here.

Time to Cut Firebreaks

We live in the Wildland Urban Interface.  An important aspect of living here is to reduce available fuel in case of wildfires.  It is time to cut your firebreaks if you have any stands of  weeds that will dry over the summer.  For more information, go to the Ada Fire Adapted Website.

Weeds

We have added a page to help the people in the  neighborhood identify certain weeds that are on our trails and open areas.  There is a link at the bottom of each page to Weeds or you may follow this link.
