We’re pleased to announce that the Church Hill Association voted last night to fund our request for $5,000 to make several improvements to the park, which include

* picnic tables built by CHAT
* shade sails
* barbeque stands
* bird and bat houses
* garden shed

We are grateful for the CHA’s generous support. The motion was amended such that the funds will remain with CHA rather than with Richmond Parks and Recreation Foundation. CHA will pay the invoices as items are purchased. Also, we will have to go through CAR for approval of the design of the garden shed.

We’ll need lots of volunteers to help erect the shade sails and install the other equipment. Hope you can make it to the community park cleanup day in April.

Thanks to everyone for helping in this effort.

Update – the vote was made “NULL and VOID” due to a technicality (a notice wasn’t published in the CHA newsletter announcing an upcoming vote of a large grant request according to bylaws). The membership will have to vote on it again on Tuesday, April 21 at 7pm at Asbury Methodist Church, corner of 29th and Marshall. Join/renew CHA membership and vote!
