Apparently there has been an uptick to crime in the neighborhood...

Note the two robberies outside of 7-Eleven....Please be careful, and notice the items they say should not be in plain view...

Neighborhood Cleanup

I wanted to thank everyone who turned out yesterday for the neighborhood cleanup. Turnout was fantastic! Besides our neighbors, we were also joined by big crews from the Colonnade and Sheraton hotels. A special thanks to them. We figure that in total there were between 75 and 100 people, which I consider impressive, considering the size of our neighborhood.

The neighborhood looks fantasic. Again, thanks to everyone who participated, and I hope you are all members of the St. Botolph Neighborhood Association. If not, join today!
