New Amboy Neighborhood Association

We at the New Amboy Neighborhood Association would like to extend a formal invitation to you and your representatives. We will be having a Block party on Saturday October 18th, at 260 Military Road. That is the Parking lot of the Bookkeeping Plus on Military road.
The Party will start at 1:00 pm. We would love to have representatives from every Neighborhood group and whomever you represent. Bring some literature about your particular organization to hand out.
We are really expecting a large crowd. People in the area are really excited about our new association and the response is getting a little overwhelming.
Candidates have been invited and all have confirmed. They will be allowed to speak after 2:00 pm. We hope you all can find time to attend, if not for the full thing, drop by and show some support for our efforts. We want to meet you all, and hope that we can all work together for a better NLR.
Respectfully,
Paul Myrick
Amboy Neighborhood Association

Questions for candidates

The League of Women Voters will be conducting their candidate question and answer session for North Little Rock mayoral and alderperson candidates next week. The session will not be open to the public; however it will be taped and rebroadcast several times on the Comcast community access channels. A representative from the North Little Rock business community, League of Women Voters and a representative from the North Little Rock neighborhoods will each be allowed to ask questions of the candidates from Ward 1, Ward 2 & Ward 3 as well as the mayoral candidates.

I have been asked to participate as the representative of the neighborhoods. I believe there are many very intelligent and dedicated people in our neighborhoods and I am asking for your help in finding the right questions to ask of the candidates. Please e-mail me at segwalls@swbell.net with the question you would like asked in each of the three alderperson races and mayoral race. Please keep in mind, given the time restraints, I will probably only get to ask at most 2 or 3 questions of each alderperson candidate and maybe 4 or 5 of each mayoral candidate. The questions must be succinct and to the point. The questions should also address neighborhood specific issues. I would appreciate citizen’s questions that are serious and I look forward to finding the best questions to ask our candidates.

Cpt Warren Mobbs


One of your Firemen died last Friday.

Cpt Warren Mobbs, who skippered Engine 7 on C Shift operating out of Station 7 in your neighborhood, died Friday afternoon after finishing up with yardwork at his home. It is believed that he suffered a sudden fatal heart attack.

Cpt Mobbs will be sorely missed. We hope that all of the Lakewood folks will join us in mourning his passing.

Funeral is 10:00 AM Tuesday. This is truly a sad day for the NLRFD, especially for the guys at Station 7.

CERT CLASSES POSTPONED
Due to unforeseen circumstances, a decision was made to postpone the Community Emergency Response Team classes until after the first of the year. We are still working on gathering the information, training materials and everything we will need to make this happen. Rick Ezell and Virginia Raum as well as Bud Gray as all so gracious and still willing to be our teachers. Applications are still available. We will be posting the new dates in the near future. LIM feels very strongly about this program and we will be pushing forward in hosting this event.

Angel

Marilyn had bought Angel a special new outfit for the NNO dog show but she was unable to participate that night. She was given an honorable late entry category of "MOST LOVED." Angel hopes to continue her budding career in dog pageants in the future.
