Our neighbors at the Moreland West Neighborhood Association (MWNA) have invited Baker West residents to their Annual Meeting, featuring State Senator Dave Cortese as the main speaker.
WHEN: Thursday, November 19, 6:30–8:00 p.m.
WHERE: Moreland Community Center, 1850 Fallbrook Ave
Sen. Cortese has served as a school board member, San José City Councilmember, County Supervisor, and now State Senator for District 15. He’ll share recent legislative successes – including housing affordability, the modernization of Diridon Station, autonomous vehicle safety and wildlife-vehicle collision prevention – and wants to hear your questions and concerns.
Free Daffodil Bulbs!
To celebrate San José’s 250th anniversary next year, BeautifySJ is giving away 250,000 daffodil bulbs to plant this November and December in parks, schools and front yards across the city. Pick up a dozen or so for your front yard at the meeting (up to two dozen per household). Can’t make it? Email morelandwestna@gmail.com to arrange a pickup after the meeting.
Thanksgiving Food Drive – Through November 19
The Moreland School District and West Valley Community Services are collecting food for Thanksgiving. Drop off donations at Baker Elementary until November 19, or bring them with you to the MWNA meeting. You can also give online through West Valley Community Services, and a list of needed items is on the Moreland School District site.
Thank you to Amy Cody and MWNA for the invitation – hope to see you there!
