Magic Show for All Ages Saturday, July 9th at 2:30
Come one, come all for a little summertime magic right in the neighborhood. Kids and adults of all ages welcome. Thanks to the Chevy Chase Estates Association for sponsoring this fun event so all can enjoy it FREE of charge.
Valentine’s Traveling Nature Class Saturday, Aug. 20th at 3:30 Come see--or in some cases, pet and hold--reptiles, amphibians, insects and more! This fabulous and FREE show educates and entertains animal-lovers of all ages.
Also, don't forget to sign up for the summer reading program at Chevy Chase Library. You can pre-order your book selections from throughout the Glendale and Pasadena library systems online at http://catalog.glendalepubliclibrary.org and then ask that they be sent to the Chevy Chase branch. There's no quicker or greener way to keep up with your reading. Routing your books to Chevy Chase provides more accurate circulation numbers for our area than routing them to another branch or the Central Library for pickup. The library uses our branch's relatively low circulation numbers to suggest we're not using the system that much and that we don't need a library here. So please route your books to Chevy Chase!
The Chevy Chase branch is open to check out books on Wednesdays from 2-8 and Saturdays 12-5. You worked hard to keep it open. Now it's time to enjoy it!!
Come join Officer Sue Shine and your Glenoaks Canyon neighbors for a Neighborhood Watch training and burglary prevention meeting.
While the crime in our canyon is extremely low, the Glendale Police Department wants to help us institute a neighborhood watch program so we can keep our canyon safe for all of us.

Agenda:
5:30 - 6:00 Arrive early for introductions
6:00 - 7:00 Burglary prevention slideshow/Crime overview
7:00 - 7:30 What is Neighborhood Watch?
7:30 - 8:00 Meet neighbors and sign up

Officer Sue Shine and GOCHA have decided to cancel Thursday evening's meeting due to the conflict with Glenoaks School's Open House. It will be rescheduled and we will let you know the new date as soon as it has been arranged. Sorry for the last minute notice but we want the kick off meeting to be as well attended as possible. Thank you for your interest in this new program. We will see you soon.
Officer Sue Shine from the Glendale Police Department will be at Joe Bridges Clubhouse at Glenoaks Park this coming Thursday, May 26th from 6-8 PM to help us set up a Neighborhood Watch Program here in the canyon. Hope you can join us for this important meeting.
Some of you may have seen in the Glendale News-Press on the 12th that Library Director Cindy Cleary is recommending that Parks and Recreation take over the Chevy Chase Library, with the idea that it would become a community center for classes and other activities. Its status as a library would be in question. Rest assured that both the Chevy Chase Library Volunteers and the Chevy Chase Estates Association are working on drafting responses to this proposal. For the time being, the Volunteers will continue to present programs, as always. See what's coming up this weekend and beyond:
