An old-fashioned through-the-neighborhood caroling event will be
held to bring the holiday spirit to residents. A Brownie troop will be
a special part of this event. Come join us that evening to sing carols
and share a great time with neighbors. Singing ability not
required...just have fun !
Please gather at Hickory Hills Park (on 54th St. east of
Antioch) no later than 6 p.m. to join us.
As it will be dark, please bring your own lantern or flashlight. We
will end with some warm refreshments at a neighbor’s home. This
promises to be a wonderful social time for all.
If you are unable to carol with us, please greet the carolers at your door and let them know you appreciate their holiday spirit. Mark your calendar and watch for yardsigns in the neighborhood as a reminder.
At the September 29th council meeting, the City Council voted to approve the adoption of the Merriam Hills Neighborhood Plan into the comprehensive plan of the city. This marks the final step for development phase of our plan. The next phase is implementation of the various specifics. Thanks to the Steering Committee and all the residents who have been involved in this lengthy but important project to improve Merriam Hills for everyone.
