Say Good-Bye to Summer
Neighborhood Night Out Party in Bromley Park
Sunday, August 24, 1997,

Come join your neighbors in Bromley Park. Learn to know your new neighbors
and touch base with those whom you have not seen for awhile. To know your
neighbors is to promote greater neighborhood unity, and thus greater
neighborhood security.

Please bring a dish to pass and meet people.
Bromley Homeowners Association will provide plates, napkins, etc.	

Aurora	Salads
Briarcliff	Main dish	
Burlington Street and Court	Beverages
Nixon	Main dish	
Prairie	Appetizers/munchies
Renfrew	Desserts
Sheffield Court	Desserts

These are, of course, suggestions for what to bring, intended to
generate variety, but if you wish to bring something else, please do
so.


Welcome to New Residents

How nice it is to get a phone call from a long-time Bromley resident
wishing good things for her new neighbor down the street who is busily
remodeling and improving property. The Bromley Homeowners Association
hopes that all new residents, and established ones as well, will be
sure to attend the annual party in Bromley Park. Knowing who your
neighbors are (adjacent ones as well as more distant ones) is critical 
to neighborhood security, as is knowing who the members are of the
various neighborhood boards.

Here are a few neighborhood facts for new residents. Garbage pick-up
day in Bromley is on Wednesday. If Monday is a holiday, then Thursday
is pick-up day. Your house should come with re-cycling bins that go
with the house. One bin is for newspaper and the other for containers.
More specific information as to types of containers and such
change from time to time. Why not talk to your new neighbors to find
out what is currently being picked up?

Neighborhood Organizations

There are two distinct organizations in Bromley. The Bromley
Homeowners Association serves the 231 homes in Bromley. The Bromley 
Homeowners Association delivers a Newsletter free to each home and, 
when funds are available, a neighborhood directory. The
Association offers grants to worthwhile neighborhood projects. It
also serves as an advocate for neighborhood issues in City Hall,
and it interacts with nearby neighborhood associations to keep
abreast of regional issues that impact Bromley. This past year,
most Bromley Homeowners Association activities have been more at
the regional than at the local level. At a mere $5.00 per year, the 
Bromley Homeowners Association is one of the best buys in town.
Please make sure you are current. Remember, dues are aligned with
the academic year: from September to September. Thus, if you have
not paid your dues for 1996-1997, please do so soon. In a month, it 
will be time to consider sending in your dues for the 1997-1998
year. Leave checks in an envelope in the box on the front porch of
Colleen Thurston, 2819 Briarcliff.

The Bromley neighborhood also has a pool of its own: Dolfins
Pool. The Bromley Homeowners Association has very friendly relations 
with the board that runs the pool, but these two boards are entirely
separate. Each household is asked to contribute $35.00 per year as
their fair share of paying the property taxes, substantial
maintenance, and insurance on  this neighborhood pool, pool
building, and adjoining lot. Each year the pool board distributes
material explaining this "assessment" and explaining, as well, the
fee structure for use of the pool.

One painless way to support the pool is to purchase Kroger certificates;
contact a pool board member. These are cash-back certificates
good at Kroger's. Kroger donates a percentage to Dolfins pool. 
Kroger gets the use of up-front capital (and no doubt money from a lost 
certificate here or there); Dolfins
gets a few dollars here and a few there that add up
substantially over time. The generosity of Bromley residents in
taking just a couple of minutes to get the certificates
from a Pool board representative has been resounding in the
past few years. This program has already made a big difference to the 
welfare of the pool. Caring individuals who take just a small amount
of time (and no extra money) have made a large difference in
maintaining this valuable neighborhood resource. The Bromley
Homeowners Association salutes those residents who continue to
purchase Kroger certificates.
