The goal is to bring together the neighbors near 244 Main Street (primarily Ward 5 residents) to share information, concerns, and ideas. I will be there as the Ward 5 representative to facilitate and hear from residents. Main Street residents Mike and Maggie Abdow are co-organizing this event. 

‘Slice of the City’ events are early evening, drop-in style meet ups at green spaces in each of Melrose’s wards. The Mayor, members from the City Council, and City staff will be present to mingle with residents. Join us to celebrate Melrose’s open spaces, engage with the City outside of formal meetings, and enjoy some local pizza.

Residents of Melrose Ward 5 (southwest portion of the City, around Oak Grove and the Middlesex Fells)  are invited to meet Mayor Grigoraitis, Ward 5 Councilor Kim Vandiver and Councilor-at-Large Maya Jamaleddine over a slice of pizza at the Lincoln School playground between 6 and 7 p.m. on Wednesday, September 17.

Stop by Oktoberfest at The Beebe Estate! I’ll be there and happy to say hello and chat.

“Join us in the biergarten from 12-5pm. There will be live music, games, food from La Qchara and Kindred Crepes, and plenty of beer! Free entry, just pay for beer and food as you go. Family and dog friendly.” See more event details from the organizers here.
