The Light Brigade Lights 42nd, 43rd & McKinley

Lights Make Good Friends & Neighbors

Saturday, October 27th, Paul Tracy, Al Siemsen, Naimi Adedalpo, Gwendolyn Spears and teen volunteers, Shannon Krueger and Christopher Spears hit 42nd Street and McKinley Boulevard. We rang bells, talked to neighbors and replaced more porch lights with energy efficient bulbs. We also noted a number of light fixtures that were in need of replacement and put them on the list.

As the daylight shortens and the darkness lengthens it is important to remember to keep those porch lights on. We found neighbors were thankful to receive our energy efficient bulbs and help.

The next day, Dan Larsen, Vicki Provencher and Pat Mueller made the rounds on 43rd Street talking to neighbors and installing lights. We met several new neighbors and caught up with others and gathered more e-mail addresses for our e-mail bulletins.

The best part was coming back in the evening and seeing the porch lighs lit.
