The Spring issue of the quarterly BPA newsletter, which goes to all residents of Barron Park, just came out. I hope you enjoyed this amazing collection of articles about people, events, and developments in our community. (If you didn’t get it, you can find an electronic copy on this site.)<\/p>\n
Are you a member of the Barron Park Association? If yes, you are one of the roughly 450 residents who support the BPA\u2019s many activities\u00a0and receive all four quarterly newsletters, not just this one.<\/p>\n
If you are not a member, you are still benefiting from the BPA\u2019s various community events, such as the May F\u00eate, Movie in the Park, the Meet and Learns,\u00a0monthly Community Happy Hours,\u00a0and our cultural diversity events (like the very popular Lunar New Year and Diwali celebrations). You are also benefiting from the BPA\u2019s advocacy on traffic, development, and environmental issues. All of these are just the\u00a0latest of the continuing activities\u00a0in the BPA\u2019s over 60 years of community engagement. (Did you know that the BPA was instrumental in creating Bol Park, in ensuring flood control for Barron Park, and other community improvements of lasting change?) The BPA is playing a key role in\u00a0making our neighborhood fun and safe.<\/p>\n
So if you are not a member, we would like to invite you to become one.<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0Just use this site to sign up. Please support your neighborhood association. Almost 10% more<\/em> of your neighbors decided to join the BPA last year, but we are missing you!<\/p>\n If you are a member, please drop me a note about what it is that\u00a0you<\/em>\u00a0enjoy about the BPA (email to: president at bpapaloalto dot org). And then tell me what more we should be doing as a community. We are one of the most active associations in Palo Alto, but I know there is more that we can do. I hope to hear from you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Spring issue of the quarterly BPA newsletter, which goes to all residents of Barron Park, just came out.
