Hello everyone!

We want to remind you that we will be having the Central Foothills Neighborhood Association annual meeting this Wednesday, February 1^st. The meeting begins at 6:30pm at the Library! at Collister, 4724 W State Street. 

We have will several guest speakers and Board elections. We are in need of new board members! Several board members have served for multiple terms, and several are not able to continue to contribute this next year in this role. Please consider joining the Board. We would love to have some new people, with new energy on the CFNA Board. It doesn’t involve too much of your time and much of what we do is done via email.
