Visit with Community and Government Groups at Annual Meeting

(February 12, 2011) A variety of local non-profit organizations and local government agencies will be providing information about their programs and services at the 2011 meeting of the Steele Creek Residents Association on Thursday evening, March 3 at Southwest Middle School (13624 Steele Creek Rd, behind the library).

Attendees can meet and mingle during the pre-meeting from 6:30 to 7:00 and again after the speakers talk from 8:00 until as long as folks are willing to talk. This will be a great opportunity to meet your neighbors and learn about Steele Creek programs and organizations.

STEELE CREEK OUTREACH will be collecting items to make goody bags for the street homeless (the ones that do not go to homeless shelters). They will be collecting hand wipes, juice boxes, pudding cups/applesauce, spoons, cereal bars, chapstick, lotion, individual snacks, and any other individually wrapped items that people would like to donate. This is one of many Steele Creek Outreach charitable projects.

CHARLOTTE-MECKLENBURG ANIMAL CARE AND CONTROL, in partnership with the Second Harvest Food Bank, will be collecting dry and canned food for dogs, cats, puppies and kittens for the Pet Food Bank. The objective is to help families keep their pets rather than bringing them to the Animal Shelter because they can't afford to feed them. Animal Care and Control is located at the northern edge of Steele Creek on Byrum Drive.

Other groups expected to attend are:

Armed Forces Museum and Archives of the Carolinas/Military Officers Association of America
Berewick Recreation Center
Carolinas Medical Center-Steele Creek
Catawba Riverkeeper Foundation
Charlotte Department of Engineering (Dixie River Road Project)
Cub Scout Pack 80 (Pleasant Hill Presbyterian Church)
McDowell Nature Center and Preserve
Morningstar United Methodist Church
Winget Recreation Center
Steele Creek Library
Steele Creek Presbyterian Church
Steele Creek YMCA

All Association dues collected this year will be donated to the Steele Creek Youth Network, a program for at-risk youth in Steele Creek. The Association has donated approximately $700 from Association dues collected in the last two years to Steele Creek Youth Network.
