Kids Carnival - HUGE Success!

This year’s Kid’s Carnival was a HUGE success!! We think we had more people than ever before. Thanks to all those families that came to play and thanks to all those neighbors that helped out in one way or another (e.g., baking cakes, handing out hot dogs, or running games).   And a special thanks to the in-coming MPNO president, Paul,  and his family and friends for all the great games this year!!

MPNO would also like to thank the sponsors for the event:

Board of Water and Light

Victor Celentino, Ingham County Commissioner

It’s your neighborhood - help keep it safe!

A friendly reminder that we are all responsible for keeping our neighborhood safe! Our community Police Officers are great - but they can’t be everywhere all the time.  So it is up to us to keep an eye out and to report suspicious activity. Our Police Officers REALLY DO want to hear from us! We are the first line of defense.  Here are some numbers to have on your fridge:

Emergencies - 911

Police (non-emergencies) - 483-4800

Graffiti hotline - 483-4264

Fire Department (non-emergency) - 483-4200

Welcoming new neighbors

The Moores Park Neighborhood Organization delivered some welcome baskets to neighbors that have moved into the neighborhood within the last 6 months. Those of us that put the baskets together and/or delivered the baskets really enjoyed getting to welcome and meet new folks! And I think the new neighbors really appreciated the thought! We’d like to keep this effort going. We are not just a neighborhood but a community!!!

If you are interested in helping, or have  a new neighbor move in let us know - you can contact us at mooresparkATgmailDOTcom

Don’t forget - the neighborhood yard sale Saturday (6/12)!!


Perennial garden work party

Susan is planning on being down at the perennial garden (at the top and sides of the pool area in the park) on Saturday from 10-11 am to do a bit of weeding and planning for this garden.  Please swing by if you have a chance to help beatify our park! Maybe between yard sales!
