actually, 4th and summit are great for what they are. you don't have to live right on 4th or summit, live on a sidestreet if traffic scares you. I lived on Summit for 4-5 years. the ease of getting around the city using those 2 streets is one of the biggest plusses to living in that area.

Meetings are held the third Monday of every month from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM . At least that's what it used to be. Rory do you know for sure?
I haven't been in awhile but would like to start attending again. Would be fun to plan a little "after meeting" drinks or something with you CU Weinland Park folk. Just a thought.
Do any of you regularly attend?Posted 2 years ago # -
I attend fairly regularly. The meetings are on the fourth Wednesday of every month at the Schoenbaum Center (better known as the OSU daycare center) at 7th & Summit at 6:30 P.M. upstairs. You'll be buzzed in at the door.
I'm not sure if it's been moved this month because that falls on Thanksgiving Eve. When I find out I'll post it.
After meeting cocktails with fellow CU'ers would be fun. I'm in for that.

Thanks for the info guys and gals. Any other truths I should know before making the leap? Given all the challenges, I am still undeterred. Am I crazy?

Do any of you regularly attend?Our neighbor Ahmed regularly harangues me that I should attend, but my past attempts at involvement have not been met with success. My experience is that the people who run the meetings don't welcome the involvement of people who own property and live in Weinland Park; they prefer a more patron-client arrangement.
Berdawn was on the University Area Commission for several years. I'm sure if one of you bought her a few cocktails she could tell you some horror stories about microlocal politics.

Why not go to the meeting and them come on down to Bristol afterwards...I'd love to hear and meet others in the neighborhood.

I haven't been to Bristol since right after you opened (although a friend of mine mentioned that he and I should attend 'Manchester Mondays' or whatever its called.)

That is a good idea. Community togetherness.

The civic association meeting is on Dec. 2nd at the Schoenbaum Center. 6:30 P.M.
Followed by Weinland Park Wednesday at the Bristol?
The meeting has been moved from its usual 4th Wednesday slot because of Thanksgiving Eve. I'd assume it'll be back on schedule in January.
