Greetings Neighbors,Since I will soon be appointed to serve on the Citizen's Senior Advisory Board for our fine city, I am thinking you just might want to join me in my personal *walk* through the process. I don't know about you, but all this is brand new to the likes of me.
First off, when I finally awakened to the fact that I needed to become an active part of my community ~ I wasn't sure at all how to do it ! Even though I passed my 9th grade Civic's class with a "B" average, I now sorely regret that I was only studying to pass the test instead of to learn.
So I had to find out what I needed to do, therefore I asked both friends and city officials. They all said the same thing, "Attend the City Council Meetings and volunteer to sit on one of the advisory boards.". And that is precisely what I've done.
I'll close for now...but next time will share more insight into the process.
Blessings,
Ann Lanier *smiles*

I think Maitland is a fine community. A very nice lady had me stay at her place and put gray film on a window, but it kept falling off. So we went to a lamp store, and I think we looked at lamps. Then, we ate at a nice restaurant, went to Lowe's and heard a loud noise in the isle. Maitland sure is fun!
WOW! What a wonderful site for anyone wanting to know more about Maitland today or its path to the future! Keep up the great work!
