Greetings Neighbors,
Congratulations to all new and re-elected EGCA Officers!
Thanks to all members who made the time to participate in this important bi-annual organizational activity.
A special thank you to Ms. Ruby Nash, who at 90 years old, and one of our few living original Eastland Gardens homeowners (living out here for more than 60 years), thought it important enough to come out, share her thoughts, and participate, even while fighting through the pain of an earlier dental appointment! Now THAT'S Commitment!
Thanks also to Commissioner Sharita Slayton for managing and presiding over an inclusive and transparent election process.
Your EGCA Officers for 2009 - 2011:

Please remember to bring your $5.00 for your annual EGCA dues. Your Association will only be as strong and as effective as You make it! Your participation and input are extremely important! The direction in which we will collectively lead your Association will be determined by You!
On behalf of our EGCA Officers, I'd like to say that all of us are very humbled and appreciative of your show of support and vote of confidence in our volunteer efforts. We will continue our focus on being inclusive, accountable, and transparent in all that we do on behalf of this wonderful community!
Ladies and Gentlemen, our Civic Association is 74 years old and still going strong! Our Ancestors who established this organization in 1935 would be very proud of us all!
We're all in this together!
Thanks
Greg
