Congratulations, Amy Klaben!
Well-deserved congrats go out to Bexley resident and housing advocate Amy Klaben as NBC4’s “Remarkable Woman” for 2023. Amy has most recently been involved in directing Move to Prosper, an innovative program that empowers low wage working families and their children to gain economic security. Congratulations, Amy!
Skate Spot Update
This week our skate spot advisory group took a look at design proposals for a possible skate/bike spot at Schneider Park north of the athletic fields – we got great responses to our request for proposals and it’s going to be exciting to explore what’s possible for the space! This possible park feature is being explored as a part of our 2023 Year of the Parks projects.
Senior Center Update
Earlier this week I met with Bexley’s Senior Center leadership to continue to discuss options for the center to remain on the 420 N Cassady site as part of its redevelopment. As we explore exciting ideas for the center’s future it’s been magnificent to see the community forming within the walls of our senior center “incubator” space on North Cassady, and I’m excited to see this program continue to grow and thrive.
“Dave Night” at the Drexel
Dave Night was a total hoot! Proceeds from the show went to the Bexley Middle School’s Washington D.C. scholarship fund; it’s great to see this trip back on the books for our 8th graders. Congrats to Dave Price (and guests) and the Bexley Middle School PTO on a great event! If you missed the show and/or would otherwise like to contribute to the scholarship fund, click here.
