The Town Crier

Sorry About The "Resident" Your name on the mailing label

for this issue of the Courier has been changed to "Resident." We don't like to be so imper­sonal, but the change will ensure that more of the newsletters are delivered.

Since mailing the Novem­ber/December Courier using First Class postage, we discovered that there were many newsletters that were returned marked "un­deliverable as addressed."

People move, names may change, and the post office won't deliver to an address with a name unless that person actually lives there.

Again, we apologize for a lack of the personal touch that we value, but the change was made to make sure more people remain aware of Colonial Hills news.

Chairs (Or Co-Chairs); Banker is Needed Most of the Fourth of July <=elebration committees have chairs,

and thanks to all who have volunteered. A chair is still need­ed to to coordinate the Raffle portion of the celebration, and a volunteer is needed to act as banker for the event.The neighborhood also needs help with the Kiddie Parade, Mid­way Games, the Bake Sale, and a new proposal this year - Field Games (sack races, egg toss, water balloon toss, wheelbarrow race, etc.) Making the task less daunting is a large body of ex­perience to draw from, and several committees are already in place. Most of the work will consist of coordinating the var­ious volunteers.

If you are interested, or simply would like more information, contact Mike Sahr ( 433-0378), Chuck Lopez (847-9801) or Rob Wendling (785-9681). . . •..........••.•••........•••••••••••.....•••••.•..••..................... ..•..•.•...........
