Building a Strong Neighborhood Together

We are very sad to hear of the murder of Rajneet Kaur Singh, a White Rock area resident. May she rest in peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family, friends, and neighbors. As time unfolds, our hope is to be able to open up conversation about how we can come together as a community to stop crime like this. It’s an outrage and a very sad and difficult situation. 

From News 10′s website:

Ground broke at White Rock Park on August 20, 2010, and it looks like the Cordova Recreation and Park District has been busy getting things done. As you can see in the cell phone video below, the community center is being framed, asphalt has been laid for the parking lot, various areas are roped off for development, and there are portions of new concrete sidewalks installed.

This project is coming along for the neighborhood. We’ve been working hard on new letters. In the past few weeks the letters were cut, sanded, primed, painted, and now they’re being hung. The video shows how obvious the current letters have been decayed. They are practically falling apart. It’s a nice thing we have great residents in the neighborhood to take care of this main entrance. Thank you to Brandon, Rich, Orv, Sarah, and Ryan for their work. Others are welcome to pitch in because we’ll need to do some putty work and then re-painting once they are completely hung.

A group of residents got together today to cut out new wooden letters that say “Cordova Towne”. The old letters on the northern corner of Croydon & Mather Field Road have been looking very unpolished in light of their age, so it was time to spruce things up a bit. Nice job Orv, Rich, Brandon & Ryan. With a little intention, we can get a lot done in a community. We all benefit in the neighborhood when people step forward to use their abilities and give a few minutes here and there.

If you’d like to help prime, paint or hang the letters, speak on. We’ll be doing this in the next two weeks and we’re looking for volunteers. See you at the installation party on September 25 at 10:30am.

What do you think? Do you remember in 2007 when our neighborhood painted this wall? Wasn’t the gray cinder block really ugly before we painted? And now the wall has been really spruced up by Leadership Rancho Cordova Class of 2010 (along with residents). Thank you Leadership Class for all of your hard work. We really benefited from your leadership in our community. Thank you for choosing such a visible and important wall to not only our neighborhood, but all of Rancho Cordova. What a tremendous project for everyone and it’s just in time for the California Capital Airshow too.

See the flyer below to pick out dates to enjoy celebrating a major accomplishment in Rancho Cordova. Yes folks, we are an All-America City. And of course that means we are an All-America City neighborhood too. 

Come out to the Cordova Towne Jigsaw Party. We are going to make new wooden “Cordova Towne” letters for the northern corner of Croydon Way & Mather Field Road. Watch the video below for more information. Step by step. That’s how we improve our neighborhood. And we do it together.
