First Annual Block Parties October 4, 2009 October 4, 2009 Santa Cruz Neighbors sponsored 26 block parties city wide. This is a celebration of our community neighborhoods. The event seeks to unite Neighborhoods citywide creating an opportunity for all residents to participate in a block party, barbecue, ice cream social, potluck, marshmellow roasting or other creative block events. Each neighborhood could request guests to attend their parties. These guests included the UC Chancellor and Associates, Good Neighbor Student Interns, Fire Department, Police, Red Cross, Commission on Prevention of Violence Against Women - defense demonstration. 24 Block Parties Guests, Activities and Ideas.doc Block Diagram004.pdf Van Ness Ave wanted to encourge everyone to know where everyone lived on their street and this was a fun tool they used, especially good for the children on the block to meet their neighbors.
