The Neighborhood Block Party held Sunday in Beacon Hill was a great success and attended by many hundreds of residents and visitors to our neighborhood.

The Beacon Hill Civic Association is to be commended for its efforts at making this such a fun and well attended event that had the good luck of occurring on a truly perfect day when the sun was warm and there was just a hint of chill in the breeze that prevailed.

It was a day for everyone living here – for families and kids, for individuals, for old and young alike – to eat, to play games and to shop.

What is better than great people, wonderful food provided by a slate of generous sponsors and a full menu of many activities?

Congratulations to the BHCA.
