Building a Strong Neighborhood Together

Announcing the Neighborhood E-Group

We have exciting news.

A Cordova Towne E-Group has been set up in order to help us dialogue as a neighborhood. The blog, email list, and website have been working great, but the e-group will take things to the next level by making it even easier for all of us to communicate. Also, communication will not be contingent upon one person writing an email, which will truly make this a community forum.

Here is what you need to do:
1. Go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cordovatowne/
2. Click “Join this Group”
3. Begin posting by simply sending an email to the email address they give you. That’s all. No logging in. No passwords. Just send an email.

What can you write about? The e-group is a place for us to talk about neighborhood stuff, events, crime, concerns, real estate, yard sales, Rancho politics, local issues, meetings, resident life, solutions to problems, traffic, city issues, local resources, family life, and whatever else we might want or need to chat about. This is a good place too to give away free stuff to fellow residents (I have a bike that is going to be listed shortly).

Membership is limited to current Cordova Towne / White Rock Area residents (owners and renters alike) and a select few individuals, primarily public officials, admitted on a case-by-case basis.

For examples of other local neighborhoods doing an e-group, check out. Sunriver in particular has quite a bit of traffic, so you can see that a tool like this can be very powerful:
1. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sunriver/
2. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Arden_Park/

Remember, when you subscribe you can have every post individually emailed to you or you can opt for one daily digest email. If you don’t have time to read, then just delete it. This makes communication simple!!!!
