Annual Tree Trimming for Peace 
Thursday, December 15, 2011

6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Rose Park (8th St & Orizaba Ave)

Happy Holidays from RPNA!
 
The unexpected rain storm caused us to cancel the tree lighting ceremony this year.

The event chairperson Scottie Hinkey worked all day today with her volunteers to have everything ready for the neighborhood.  When the thunder started we packed it in, thinking no one would brave this kind of weather.  

To those of you who came for the tree lighting and support of the RPNA we do apologize.  We never saw it coming...

The RPNA Tree for Peace is lit though and will remain in the park for the season.

We hope you enjoy it!

 

If you notice interference with the tree this season please email  [email protected] or call (562) 368-4877

 

 

      

 

Historic E. 7th Street & Historical District Banners Are Installed on E. 7th

7th St Banners

Rose Park Neighborhood Association applied for and received a grant from the Neighborhood Partners Program to install banners designating the historical districts on E. 7th Street.

 

The Neighborhood Partners Program is offered by the Department of Development Services to assist neighborhood and community groups with beautification and improvement projects.

 

Signal Hill Petroleum made this all possible with a generous contribution of $1,500.00.

 

Residents and businesses from the three historic districts, the Neighborhood Resource Center and Vice Mayor Suja Lowenthal's office pitched in with a clean-up that met the requirements for Rose Park Neighborhood Assn. contribution.

 

These banners are mounted on existing street poles from Redondo Ave. to Alamitos in an effort to draw attention to and identify the historic designations of these three districts.

 

Efforts to improve E. 7th Street are ongoing and participation in these projects is appreciated.  If you would like to be a part of this project, we need you!  email [email protected] or [email protected]

Look Up!  

Thank you to all the Rose Park residents that signed the petition for change in the overhead cables covering our neighborhood!

 

This request/complaint was sent to Vice Mayor Suja Lowenthal.

We still are adding names to our petition so please email [email protected] and add your name to the petition for a change in the structure of these cables.
