I'm also pleased to report that Carol Hankermeyer has agreed to join our Board as our new Community Involvement chairperson. Carol will focus this year on organizing an activity at Edgewood with one of our local schools. Finally, a note about two events coming up in the next couple of months. Redwood City's annual Climate Best Fest takes place on the weekend of September 20/21, and the Friends will have a booth. I hope to see lots of you there, and encourage you to bring your friends who may want to learn more about our organization. And of course on October 5 we'll have our annual general meeting and potluck dinner at the Day Camp. This is your chance to chat with your fellow Friends, reflect on this year's accomplishments, elect officers, enjoy great food and beverage, and learn who will receive this year's highly coveted Best Friend award. Watch for the announcement flyer coming out soon. |

The Friends of Edgewood Board has been
busy these last couple of months. Thanks to the hard work of the special working committee
led by Vice President Peter Ingram, our application to become a California public benefit
corporation was filed last month (see Peter's article on page 1). This represents a major
milestone for our organization's development, and positions us to achieve our goal of
acquiring non-profit corporate status this year.
