Annual Civic Club Dues Drive : Next Meeting 9th of January at Marbrook

Dear Neighbors

It is Time once again to begin our annual civic club dues drive . The cost of membership is still $10 .

We our hoping that everyone will do their fair share and pay their dues in a timely fashion . The past two winters with higher then average have been a serious financial hardship on the civic club .

Thanks to the Del-DOT partial reimbursement program we were able to pay for plowing and still provide many activities for the community .

We would like to remind everyone that you do get a lot for your $10 . We host an annual Summer Incorporation Day Event & Cook Out , Halloween Party , and Easter Egg Hunt and the Christmas Dinner . We provide news letters containing current events .
We work with local governments to strive towards improving our community . And yes we do plow .

Please remember the plowing is restricted by the amount of dues we collect . This is your community and we are only asking that each household do their part to ensure that we are able to continue to provide all the aforementioned services that go into making Brookland Terrace a great place to live .

If you have any questions about your membership dues please call Chuck (President) 463-2239 or Phil (Vice President) 357.6802 or email

BrooklandTerrace@gmail.com

We want to extend our thanks to every one who paid last year . And would like to thank everyone in advance for paying this year's dues .

NCCPD have recovered some property (mostly jewelry) and will have a showing on Monday, December 19th and Tuesday, December 20th at the Paul J. Sweeney

Good afternoon everyone,

I wanted to take an opportunity to thank everyone who came out to the burglary meeting last night. It was very productive and I hope that we can continue the momentum and take our communities back.

I’d also like to personally thank Sr. Cpl. Mike Snead and Detective Pat Malone for their time and effort they put into the meeting. I’d also like Stephanie Rizzo, my legislative aide, for working with the Police to get this meeting put together in a week’s time. It was very productive.

If you were a victim or know someone that was a victim, the NCCPD have recovered some property (mostly jewelry) and will have a showing on Monday, December 19th and Tuesday, December 20th at the Paul J. Sweeney Public Safety Building (New Castle County Police Headquarters) at 3601 N. DuPont Highway in New Castle from 5:00 – 6:30 PM. Please come to see if some of your property has been recovered. Please spread the word to your family and friends who may have also been a victim.

If you were unable to attend or didn’t get the handouts at the meeting, please go to my website: www.nccde.org/sheldon and look for the scrolling text with the link to the presentation.
