2017 Spring Picnic

The 2017 Annual Spring Picnic was another big success. Over 400 residents attended. Thanks to DPD and DFD attendees for your presence and bringing your equipment for the youngsters (and young at heart) to explore. The catering by Nico’s was well received, and thanks to our grillers for providing hot dogs. All of you dessert providers, thank you for the excellent treats!  Many, many thanks to all Board Members, Section Directors and residents for your hard work and teamwork to make it all happen without a hitch.

Spring Coffee Klatch

Many neighbors attended the Spring Coffee Klatch hosted by Marilyn Halla in her beautiful home. Marilyn not only provided the beautiful space but a delicious spread of food that was enjoyed by everyone. We were fortunate to have  Senior Corp David Kim and Police Officer Justin Cooley from the Northwest Dallas Police Division. They visited one on one with the people and at the end answered questions from the crowd.
