From UCCA’s President Diane Ahern: Hello University City. It’s June already! The PDF version of the June University City News newsletter is available today; the print newsletter will be available this weekend at our Libraries and Recreation Centers. Home delivery for those who are served by our UCCA volunteers begins this weekend.
What’s your focus this month? My focus continues to be to help keep our community informed with news and events related to University City. UCCA’s volunteers and contributors help me do that through UCCA’s University City News print newsletter, website and social media, community outreach, event support, and public meetings. Of course, we encourage community participation in the Community Plan Update process and we urge you to attend meetings and submit suggestions to the planning department.
Please take the time to read articles from our community contributors including the planning group, CPUS, the police and fire departments, planning department and many more in the June newsletter.
Yes, there’s a lot going on in University City. Scroll down for the June 2023 Save the Date Short List and take a look at our June print newsletter for all the details. But first, please keep in mind that while many other publications and websites charge a fee to read articles and print news, UCCA’s University City News remains free as a University City community resource for all. If you can join UCCA or make a donation to help us stay in print, please do so at: https://www.universitycitynews.org/join-ucca-today/
