Please come to our next Pinehurst Community Council meeting! We’d love to have more people get involved in our community. Our guest speaker from Lake City will discuss homelessness. As you probably know, there is a tent city on NE 125th & 22nd NE, so homelessness is close to home, so to speak.
At the meeting we’ll have Pinehurst bumper stickers! And if you wish, bring new socks for the North Precinct Advisory Council sock drive. The full agenda is below. We hope to see you there!
