WELCOME MESSAGE

Soon we will be entering the dog days of summer. Why not try cooling off at the Hawthorne pool? This is one of Hawthorne's hidden gems. The water is clean and clear you can catch up with friends and neighbors and stay cool. Another great idea is the Chamber of Commerce's Farmer's Market on Sundays from 9:00 until 2:00 behind the library. The market will run through late October. The second year in operation this year's market is bigger and better. I'm there most Sundays loaded down with all kind of treats. Remember to mark your calendar for the 2nd Hawthorne Day on October 2, 2010. 5 bands are already booked and if you remember the fireworks this year's will be just as exciting and maybe more. We are still signing up food vendors and retail sales. Maybe you would like to be a sponsor. Forms are available on our website. If you want to catch the excitement in advance check out Hawthorne Day on Facebook. Our Domestic Violence Response Team DVRT will be holding their annual 5K run on October 3rd. It is a chance to help a worthy organization and keep in shape. Please remember my open door policy. Government should serve the people and treat all fairly and with respect.

 

Sincerely,

Richard S. Goldberg, Mayor
