Neighborhood Meeting ... Fun Story !
It didn't look good.
Big storm clouds were gathering. .... Fort Lauderdale's Middle River Terrace Neighborhood Association was scheduled to meet ...4 pm sharp...Sunday, September 13th ...... 2009
........ oooooo .........
But civic responsibility was the call of the day!
Would the incoming monsoon stop the neighbors from showing up ? .... after all, the meeting was to be held in an outside Park Pavilion! .... You'd be excused !
neighbors eat their B.B.Q. .... under cover !
The rain was torrential ! ... a reminder of summer in Fort Lauderdale! .....but the masses still came ...huddled together .... ate the soggy beans..... hoped for the best !
and then !!!
the skies cleared..........
politicians pontificated........
serious issues were discussed !
Awards were bestowed!
Fort Lauderdale Civic Spirit Lives On !!
Tim:
Thanks for organizing and hosting the meeting, and special thanks for including me. I enjoyed the afternoon, and I especially enjoyed the spirited discussion with all involved. Best wishes!

Tim Smith,.......... I am not surprised that there was a great turnout for the meeting/Bar-B-Que Sunday in spite of the rain.....what you touch just turns to Gold.
THANK YOU for keeping the faith and for your long time dedication to Middle River Terrace. You and your family have sacrificed so much over the years to help your neighbors in MRT.....I know.
Most property owners in MRT have no idea how lucky they are to have you living in the "hood." It is a safer and better place just because of you and Cindy!
Although I was unable to attend, I am proud to see such a great turnout for this past Sundays meeting! Thank you again for your time and dedication.
