The yard sale is here!!! Thank you to Sue Q and so many Mills Park Drive residents and others who pulled together to make this happen. Thank you to everyone in the neighborhood and from all over Rancho Cordova who donated. A special thanks to FCCP, the Cordova Community Council and Cordova Church of Christ for tables, marketing and handling some logistics. The sale will go from September 16-18 from 8am-5pm at 2958 Mills Park Drive. If you have not yet seen the incredible amount of donated items or the amazing organization that Sue Quackenbush and neighbors put together, watch these videos: (Video # 2 today) and (Video # 1 yesterday).

How to Get Involved over the next 3 Days:

1) Come buy something at the sale (or just come to say “hi”).
2) Volunteer a few hours to help with logistics. Yes, we could still use help.
3) Write a tax-deductible check to “Cordova Community Council”.
4) Be on call for any details that may arise that need immediate attention.
5) Invite your family and friends to the yard sale.
6) Share a video link above via email or on Facebook.

It takes a whole lot of hard work to get things done in the community. Change never happens without intention. Thank you again to all those who have planned, donated, prayed and sweat to make this a reality. Thank you also to those who have not yet done anything, but will soon arise to integrate into the stream of community life. Let’s work hard to raise $2,500+ so we can get a new sign, and thereby rebrand our corner after such a tragic situation.

Sincerely,

Ryan L & Sue Q

Here is the latest video. We have SO MUCH STUFF.

What are you doing on October 8, 2011 from 10am-2pm? White Rock Park will be re-opening and it’ll be a huge reason to celebrate as a neighborhood. Please see the image below from CRPD for details.

Ground was broken for White Rock Park on August 20, 2010, and there has been some amazing progress thus far. This is a huge step forward for all of Rancho Cordova and the White Rock area in particular. The Cordova Recreation & Park Districtis gaining ground and construction looks like it is coming along smoothly. This video was uploaded from an Android phone (myTouch 4G) by Ryan Lundquist.

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.

We have some “I Love Cordova Towne” stickers coming soon. The “Love” will actually be a red heart symbol, so it’ll look really nice. They’ll be fairly small at 5.5″ x 1.38″ and perfect for a mailbox, car window, bumper, binder or whatever you’d like. Let’s show some neighborhood pride and put up some stickers. We’ll get them in about ten days. If you want a few, just let us know.
