We think that every resident of Uptown should be a member of their local block club. If you want your voice heard in your specific area of Uptown, then we suggest using this handy link courtesy of the "Uptown Chicago Commission" to join the block club your residence falls into.If, for example, you are upset about the fact that we have a "Farmer's Market" that most residents of Uptown cannot attend due to the time it is scheduled, then let your voice be heard. New festivals and markets could be added and sponsored by our local block clubs. We truly think that now is the time to strengthen our local block clubs and by joining yours, you are doing your part.
Anyone have any info on the Sheridan Park block club? At the UCC site it says that it meets on an "as needed" basis and there's no contact info for it.
ReplyDeleteGood question-
ReplyDeleteLet's hope someone with more info on the Sheridan Park Block Club can help. Are there any other block clubs, when you read the boundaries, that you fall under?
The Sheridan Park Association was a voice for all the block clubs in the Sheridan Park neighborhood, but it has not met in many years.
ReplyDeleteI believe it's fair to say that it has folded. I will mention this to UCC and check if it would be appropriate to remove any information about Sheridan Park Association from their website.
Original poster here - looks like Graceland Wilson Neighbors Association covers me as well. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteJoin GWNA and let your neighbors know too. Good Luck. Tell them "Uptown Update" sent you.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see what Truman Square does, but I get the impression it really hasn't operated in a long time
