Rice commencement activities and Fireworks tonight, Friday, 5/14/10

If you hear the sound of loud explosions around 10 p.m. tonight, fear not.  It's just the annual Rice commencement fireworks.  All Southampton residents are invited to attend the  Presidential Concert on the Rice campus in Stude Concert  Hall (in the Alice Pratt Brown Music Building, 6100 Main St.) from 8:30  to 9:45 p.m. The concert will be followed by a champagne reception and fireworks.  The concert, reception, and fireworks are all FREE!  Parking in the Greenbriar lot is only $1.  Closer parking is also available in the lot near Stude Hall for an additional fee.  Parking can take a little extra time so plan to arrive a little early. 

Poe Elementary Clean-up this Saturday  -- Volunteers needed! 
Looking for a way to help your community this Saturday morning?  Poe volunteers are organizing a workday to clean up the school's perimeter in preparation for the grand reopening of the Poe Spark Park on May 21st.   The workday will begin at 8 a.m. (tomorrow, Saturday, 5/15/10). Please come and help out, even if you can only stay a few hours. Lunch will be served, and kids can either help with the clean-up or play on the playground. Please bring shovels, gloves, wheel barrows, brooms etc.  Clean up activities that are planned include removal of the oak leaves that have been composting in the gutter for several  months. This rich compost will enhance any garden, so come and get it!  For more information, contact Ron Kahanek at rkahanek@pdq.net.

Our very own Southampton neighbor Janet Peters chaired the effort to raise over $200K for the improvements to the Poe grounds. Please congratulate Janet on her efforts when you see her in the 'hood!
