Event Calendar

Patriot Day occurs on September 11 of each year, designated in memory of the nearly three thousand who died in the September 11, 2001 attacks. On this day, the President directs that the flag of the United States be flown at half-staff and displayed from individual American homes, at the White House, and on all U.S. government buildings and establishments, home and abroad. The President also asks Americans to observe a moment of silence beginning at 8:46 A.M. (Eastern Daylight Time) marking the first plane crash on Sept. 11, 2001.

National Good Neighbor Day was created in the early 1970s by Becky Mattson of Lakeside, Montana and President Jimmy Carter made it official in 1978. We now acknowledge and celebrate the importance of a good neighbor.by annually on September 28. Being neighbors goes beyond having that someone to run and borrowing the occasional cup of sugar when you run out. Good neighbors often become friends, they watch out for each other, lend a helping hand and are there for advice when asked. Neighbors are there when we need to borrow something, to get our mail for us when we are on vacation, to watch our homes and sometimes to watch our children and our pets as well as the many other things we do with our neighbors. Take today to take advantage of National Good Neighbor Day and do something nice for your neighbor. It is a blessing to have a good neighbor, but it is even a greater one to BE a good neighbor.

End of the month thank you event for residents
