Now casting: Northeast L.A. "reality show"
ASNC needs YOU !
Nothing but reruns on this summer?
NOW CASTING for summer replacements, the Northeast's own chapter of
Los Angeles' long-running reality show, "NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL" - your
opportunity to help advise L.A. government about local issues. Start
this summer as a new player and perhaps by next season be your
neighborhood' s STAR producer of improvements and solutions.
No previous activist experience required, learn as you help represent
and work with your neighbors.
You'd rather DIRECT? Neighborhood council representatives are able to
work with their own local constituencies to chair committees and plan
and push through all types of BLOCKBUSTER community projects.

may appoint replacements under its standing rules for any or all of
these open positions at the next scheduled meeting, July 23, 2007, 7

Washington Elementary School.

featured in a CLOSE-UP at the July ASNC board meeting.
Your Arroyo Seco Neighborhood Council, where REALITY meets the road,
