Noe Courts Improvement - jump to action!

You may have heard that the Friends of Noe Courts has been working hard on getting another round of funding to further improve our local park (located at 24th St & Douglass.) The toddler playground was a HUGE step up from what we had before, now we are so close to giving the entire park a major facelift!

Rec & Park announced the new proposed plan in the Noe Valley Voice this month. (Email jbmaeder@gmail.com if you'd like me to send it to you.) It gives our families clean, people-only grass to use while allowing dog owners, tennis players and basketball players (through a shared multi-use court) a place to play as well. I strongly feel it's a good compromise for a small pocket park.

The proposed plan is being reviewed today at City Hall at 2pm & next Thursday at 10am.  PLEASE CONSIDER attending these meetings and/or writing a letter to voice your support for these park improvements (including renovated bathrooms!) It is in danger of not going through if we don't show our support. 

Your presence at the meeting is crucial, but if you can't make it please send an email of support to all of the following:
Thanks for your efforts!
