One expression of College Hill's renewal has been the growth of
our community-wide College Hill Block Party the first week of
August. This year, it seems like everyone's involved.
On Tuesday, the College Hill Presbyterian Church (CHPC) and the
Forum sponsor the National Night Out Community BBQ and
Celebration; on Wednesday, LLanfair and Twin Towers are donating
the money for the Big Band Concert and Ice Cream Social; on
Thursday, the Three on Three basketball night is spearheaded by
Nath'l Moore from Christ's Community; on Friday, Sports
Personalities, Inspiration Speakers & Music is made possible by
College Hill Churches, and finally, on Saturday, there's a Pancake
Breakfast and a Pool Party planned by the College Hill Recreation
Center.
CHPC started this celebration as a chance to get to know their
neighbors, but the vision for this party on the hill was that the
community would embrace the chance to get together and build on
that neighborhood feeling, and celebrate what an awesome community
College Hill really is--and that's exactly what's happened.
The events each week day will take place from 6:00- 9:00 PM on
the College Hill Presbyterian Church parking lot at the corner of
Hamilton and Llanfair. Saturday's events will be at the Rec
Center. Watch for more details in next weeks' eNewsletter.
