Are you a good neighbor? Do you want to be?

PLEASE SHARE OR TELL US WHY NOT,
CALL (720)495-4949 WE DON'T READ EMAIL.

Do you live in a good neighborhood?


 Whether it is good or not, do you want to help make it even better?

If you do, we invite you to join us in this new effort.

We are forming a network of people across Colorado who want to be good neighbors by taking a couple of hours each month to:

 #1) greet newcomers as they move into your neighborhood; and  #2) email all your neighbors each month to help them learn, initially about our wonderful Colorado Caucus. (What's that? Search on Google or on Wikipedia.org click here.)

As you may know, our Colorado Caucus is the best chance for your neighborhood to be represented by the best people, very often the average, ordinary person who reads the newspaper and votes, but other than that may not have had much if any partisan political experience.

New! Caucus Clubs to facilitate self-directed learning.

Hyper-local self-directed learning is the purpose of new Caucus Clubs, catholic in the small "c" sense of "universal."

Civic education will be a primary purpose, neighbors helping neighbors to become better neighbors and more active citizens.

Groups in cooperation with local chambers of commerce, service clubs, community newspapers and other local organizations are expected to form on a variety of topics.

A group sampler will be held once a week in Denver starting this Friday. It's free and seating is very limited so rsvp well in advance if you are planning a trip to or thru Denver.

Strengthen Your Neighborhood.

We are almost two months behind what was promised in previous post. But watch for more here soon.

In the mean time check out this powerful tool for neighborhood building:

Also, for a good definition of the problems we find in neighborhood building see Robert Putman's classic book Bowling Alone 

More here soon. Hope you'll share your thoughts, that you'll come back often, and that you'll share this with your neighbors and all your friends who care about the grassroots.
