Several El Cerrito neighbors have discussed the idea of having neighborhood events & activities. These events would not only be fun, but they would allow opportunities for us to get to know everyone in El Cerrito vs. only to know our neighbors on our streets. It's an excellent opportunity for us to create a very supportive, tight, and small town feel to our very urban neighborhood. This is nothing formal... just people introducing themselves to each other and talking about their neighborhood, life in general, and getting to know each other. There is not an urban neighborhood in San Diego that has attempted this type of neighborhood collective.
El Cerrito Summer of Fun 2011 At the Balboa Park Spreckels Organ PavilionMeet on the shady-side of the Spreckels Organ Pavillion and look for any of your El Cerrito neighbors. If you know another neighbor from a different street, please introduce that neighbor to your friends & neighbors. New neighbors keep meeting and through these types of activities we form a tight community to support the great neighborhood of El Cerrito. We also have fun in the process! If you want to go to the El Prado restaurant or anywhere after the concert, it’s your call. (Please pass the word if your neighbor does not have internet access)
