From code enforcement to housing development, greening projects, public art,
citizen engagement, and much more, the Oakland community is moving closer to the Oakland 2025 vision.
To keep things going in a positive direction, join your colleagues and community
members at a workshop to brainstorm even more Oakland 2025 implementation
action steps.
OPDC will host a session led by an independent facilitator. They will gather
information on existing projects and brainstorm ideas to move forward other

Frazier Fieldhouse Festivities For February – Fri 2/28 5-7pm & Sat 3/1 7-10pm

This week is our first planned monthly kids movie night and adult get-togethers at the Frazier Fieldhouse adjacent to Dan Marino Field on Frazier St.  Any volunteers, donations of food or beverages, or even lending of movies is encouraged and welcome.

Friday February 28th is the kids movie night from 5pm-7pm.

  • Due to the size of the building and limited people to run the event, we are limiting the number of children to 30, so signing up beforehand is recommended.  Please include child’s name, parents’ names, address and contact number.
  • Children ages 5-15 are welcome.  Any children ages 5-9 are required to have a parent or older sibling to accompany them.
  • Some food/snacks will be provided, but parents must provide and coordinate any special diet or other restrictions.
  • Donations of snacks and beverages are definitely welcome.
  • All children MUST be picked up by 7pm.

 

Saturday March 1st is the adult get-together from 7pm-10pm.

  • For this first event, we are planning more of an eat, meet and greet so that neighbors can introduce themselves and discuss topics of interest and ideas for future events like like music, movies, games, etc.
  • This event is for ages 21 and older.
  • Due to the size of the building and limited people to run the event, we are limiting the number of adults to 40, so signing up beforehand is recommended.  Please include your name, address and contact number.
  • Donations of a covered dish, hors d’oeuvres, snacks and beverages are definitely welcome.
  • Anyone that would like to share some of their favorite beer or wine for their neighbors to try is also welcome.  To avoid this becoming a “bar” night, we ask that you limit to one or two drinks total per person.

We reserve the right to ask anyone who is disruptive at any event to leave.

Please RSVP via SONG contact page, email or talk to Janet Sims in person.

Just a heads-up, the second monthly events will be Friday March 21st for the kids and Saturday March 22nd for adults.

Possible change to SONG Meeting for January

As the weather predictions for Tuesday 1/7/14 seem pretty definite for temperatures around zero and wind chills as low as -20 to -30, it’s looking like we should cancel or postpone.  One option may be the following Tuesday 1/14/14.  Let us know your thoughts if you are planning on coming and we’ll see what we can arrange.

If you have any neighbors who might need some assistance, please check in on them to make sure they are ok.
