Dear Neighbor,
 
Are you prepared for winter?  Hyde Park Main Streets is concerned about the effect of the H1N1 virus on the business community and our neighbors.  Join us for our monthly Networking Breakfast with our guest from the Boston Health Commission and lets take every precaution to keep us all safe and healthy this flu season. 
 
Also on hand will be a representative from NSTAR to talk about getting an energy audit-- being prepared for winter includes the rising costs of energy.
 

Last week some of our dedicated volunteers marched in the Roslindale Parade.  This year's theme honored Boston Main Streets and all 19 districts were on hand for the celebration.
