SCNA elects new Officers
SCNA had some terrific accomplishments in 2015-16. We host or co-host several events like Tour de Camden, Little Free Library Concerts, STEAM Expo, Shingle Creek Clean-up, SC Common Ground Community Garden, and work on keeping residents informed about important planning, activities and projects in the neighborhood.
SCNA wishes to thank the officers and board members of 2015-2016 for their tireless work and energies to improve the community. We thank outgoing board members Daren Johnson, Ed Morales and Julie Gillis for sharing their time and talents with us.
We also wish to congratulate this year’s elected officers for 2016-2017:
Pam Owens, Chair; Jeffrey Strand, Vice Chair;
Justin Schmidt, Treasurer; and Holly Constant, Secretary.
