The actions of one

SetonHill October 22, 2014 October 20, 2014

Every day you spend a little time outside in the neighborhood. Some days it might only be a 3-second dash to your car, other days you may be out for hours, enjoying the nice weather, talking to your neighbors, or playing in the park. When you’re out in the neighborhood, take some of that time to look around and see if there is anything you can do to make it a little better. Whether that’s pulling a few weeds out in front of your house, picking up trash that someone else (illegally) left behind, or maybe it’s something even bigger than that.

This post today is about someone who did just that – a neighbor of ours who noticed a problem in the park, and then spent an entire morning to correct the problem. The Seton Hill Association would like thank Dave, George St resident, for his amazing work on the NW wall of Saint Mary’s Park.

For those of you who have spent some time on that side of the park, the outer wall was starting to crumble. The bricks weren’t holding up. Dave recognized this, and through coordination with the Seton Hill Association, was able to come up with a plan to amend this wall.

Thank you, Dave! It’s amazing the affect one person can have!

2014 has been a successful year for Seton Hill:
-The Baltimore City Paper named our Saint Mary’s Park 2014 Best Park in Baltimore in their annual Best Of Baltimore edition. This honor is in no small part the result of strong neighborhood advocacy for the Park and also due to John Crimy, the Park Steward hired by the Association to clean and green our historic lovely park! This 2014 honor comes on top of last year’s award to Seton Hill of 2013 Best Neighborhood in Baltimore!
-The Association is partnering with the Baltimore Bike Party in their effort to bring together diverse neighborhoods in the City with their monthly fun bike ride. The ride always begins in Saint Mary’s Park the last Friday of the month at 7 pm bringing hundreds of people from all over Baltimore to our park for riding, respecting and revelry.
-A wonderfully successful French Fair, full of fantastic music, great food, and tons of fun for both the adults and the kids!
