RCC 2024- Let’s go to the movies @ Clay Park and protect our Library parking






*|MC:SUBJECT|*






4 MORE SLEEPS UNTIL

MOVIE IN THE PARK

SAT, AUGUST 24, 2024 @ sunset

WELCOME TO CLAY PARK MADRIGAL!

Like the main character, Mirabel, the Rolando Community Council is using our power to bring people together and unite families through love and support by hosting a movie in the park.  

We hope the character Pepa will make sure the weather is perfect,  the character Isabela keeps the park looking beautiful and Bruno… well we don’t talk about Bruno.  

Looks like the character Julieta brought delicious items to purchase with WOODSTOCKS PIZZA and KONA ICE joining us too!  Bring beach chairs,  blankets, bug spray, and a flashlight/headlamp for the walk in the dark after the movie ends.

RCC Public Meetings are on summer holiday

we will be back in session on Tuesday, September 17, 2024 @ 6:00 pm PST.

Come join us for our public meeting  @ UDW 4855 Seminole Drive, San Diego, CA 92115.  Meetings are the 3rd Tuesday of every month.  Look for the banners to remind you at Clay Park and at the Triangle.  

Who would you like to see come and speak at our meetings?  We have October planned out with the candidates from District 9 to speak.  What peaks your interest to attend, who would you like to see again?

THE COLLEGE-ROLANDO LIBRARY NEEDS YOUR VOICE TO BE HEARD

Message from the Friends of the College-Rolando library:

 

We are calling on you to help once again.  

 

You haven’t heard from us for a while, but we continue our resolute resistance to the loss of library parking.  This spring, the city’s Development Services Division did approve the large hotel/residential project that will overwhelm parking accessibility for the library.  That means, it’s time to renew our efforts.  The Mayor and our Councilmember Sean Elo Rivera need to be made aware that this is a wrong decision for our library and our community.

The Union Tribune ran our opinion/commentary piece on Wednesday August 14.  Click HERE to read the article.

We have a strong case.  We just need our voices to be heard.  Without access, this library is a wasted city investment. There is no street parking.   Brief email messages are needed to show that we care, and we are calling upon them to act.

If you are so moved, letters to the editor are powerful “reinforcers” of our message. (See instructions below)    

Let’s stand united in support of our community and for our library.

 

Jan Hintzman, president of the Friends of the College-Rolando Library
