Bowmanville Community Organization

The Fall Festival was great, wasn’t it?  Please continue to support the BCO!

Don’t miss the BCO Annual Open Meeting & Election

(open to ALL friends and residents of Bowmanville!!)

This Thursday night – October 21

7pm at Rogers Park Montessori (1800 W Balmoral Ave)

Dessert potluck – bring a treat to share (no nuts please!)

Griffin Theatre will be there speaking about the plans for their new home at 1940 W. Foster Avenue.  There will also be another opportunity to make a tile for the tunnel mural,  learn about our GreenSpace site design and fundraising progress and take a chance  to win a scooter.  Mingle with your neighbors, meet the new board, and catch up on all that is going on in your neighborhood.

We are also collecting topics for the next face to face meeting between BCO leadership and Alderman O’Connor.  If you can’t make the Open meeting, but have things you’d like us to bring up send your items to president@bcochicago.org before Nov 1^st.

 Missed your chance to make a tile at the Festival?  Can’t make the Open Meeting?

Come by the pergola in the Gateway Garden on Wednesday October 27^th between 3pm-4:30pm.

The artists will be there with mosaic supplies.  $10/tile.  Come and create your piece of the mural!

Thanks.
