TRAFFIC CALM-IN DELIVERS MESSAGE TO DRIVERS!
A dozen Rowena Park adults followed the lead of their children (kudos to Basil, Levi, Jake, Ike, Eric, Nicholas, Noah, and others) and spent an hour sending a message to drivers who like our streets but don't live in Rowena Park.  Signs and flyers handed to the drivers politely but firmly asked: "SLOW DOWN.  STOP at the stop signs.  Think about using Virginia."
 
Chief statistician Glenn Mitchell and Eagle Eye Constance Niezgoda tallied 100 cars that entered our neighborhood on McCamy Street.  Here are the details:

• 100 cars between 5:00 and 6:00 p.m.
• 90 were not residents of Rowena Park.
• Half of those came from the medical offices on McCamy and Mills.
• The rest turned from Mills to beat the light - they thought.

Interesting side note - about ten of the cars were only there to pick up their dogs from the doggie day care that is about to move.
 
The best part of the event?  The After-Party!  Those photos will not be shared, to protect the guilty.  The photos below capture the Calm-In fun.

Thanks to everyone for helping change the behavior of our cut-through friends!
