VANGUARD COMMITTEE UPDATE
The Trash Mob is back From Winter Break!
- The 2015 Trash Mob kicks off this Saturday, March 28th at 9:30 am!
- We’ll expand the mob this year, not only in numbers, but in t-shirts! So please either join us as part of the cleanup crew at 9:30 at the Triangle (Newark and Monmouth) on Saturday, or just “Sweep, email and win” prizes from Pig & Pepper, Union Republic, Hazel Baby, Hound about Town and our newest local friends, Sun Moon Yoga and Mod Cup!
- And a big thank you to BGT, as without Ben, Andy and the Trash Mob van, we’d have to keep piling garbage in the Crow family’s ride…
- Just remember to “Sweep, Email and Win” to clean up the Village!
COMMUNITY UPDATES

- Mary Benson Park Storm Runoff
- Village Park Update & Timeline! (News Flash: Resolution awarding a negotiated contract is finally being voted on by City Council tonight 3/25!)
