Saturday, October 27th, 2012 was a busy day for the Westview community. Both Trees Atlanta and HouseProud were in the neighborhood doing work.
Trees Atlanta got big help thanks to the fourth grade class (and their parents) from the Westminster School. Trees were planted along the landscape strip on Stokes Avenue and additional trees were planted in the front yard of houses on East Ontario Avenue.
In the meanwhile HouseProud and its volunteers were busy painting a house next to the Stokes Avenue Pocket Park. The owner, Ms. Pippy, was ecstatic about the work and even picked up the brush to do a little work.

The Westview Community Organization is planning a hike on Sunday, November 11, 2012. We will be hiking at Sweet Water Creek State Park, which is west on I-20 in Douglasville. Meet at Calvary United Methodist Church at 1:30pm and leave from there to the park. We will try and hike about 4-miles on the trails (2.0 up and 2.0 back-or less) and then return back to the church.
When hiking :
– wear comfortable strong shoes
– dress for the weather
– bring WATER-WATER
– bring a light snack
Members of the community and their family are welcome to come. Westview Community Organization will not provide transportation to or from the hike. If you would like more details please email me back at kenscarey@yahoo.com

On October 6th the Westview Community Organization participated in “Hands On Atlanta Day.” Thanks to an initial grant received through Hands On Atlanta for the Stokes Avenue Park in the spring, the WCO was eligible for a follow-up grant if participating on “Hands On Atlanta Day.” The grant purchased additional landscaping to be planted in the park. Neighbors and the “Youth of Westview” program came together to first clean up the pocket park and then plant peach trees, camellia and rose bushes, chrysanthemums, hostas, pansies, and a variety of other plants. The last task was spreading grass seed. Little by little the Stokes Avenue Pocket Park is developing into a little neighborhood oasis.

National Night Out is an annual event taking place the first Tuesday in August throughout the United States. The Westview Community Organization held this year’s National Night Out in the southern part of Westview on a strip of land that will hopefully be turned into an official park in the future. The youth played a basketball tournament and police, firefighters, politicians, and neighbors chatted for this evening of public safety.

Most events happen in around Westview, but on this occassion Westview decided to take things out of Westview. A neighborhood outing was organized to help cool down in the heat of summer – to the Chattahoochee river!
