The Block Watch has undergone an exciting transformation and is now known as “Neighborhood Connections.”  This new name embodies the dual focus of the program: fostering Safety Networking to enhance community security and promoting Social Networking to strengthen bonds among residents.  By bringing these two essential elements together in Sunflower, Neighborhood Connections aims to create a vibrant, interconnected community where safety and friendship thrive hand in hand.  Sunflower Neighborhood Connections relies on Block Captains and Co-Captains to bridge connections within our community, fostering friendships and ensuring everyone feels included and heard on the block!

The 23rd Annual Craft Fair is Nov. 7th and 8th.  Applications are available at the front desk and online.  The Committee is working hard to accommodate requests and organize this event, and the earlier applications are received, the easier our job is.  We are asking you not to wait until the fall to submit applications if you know you are participating.  Vendor questions, contact Bonnie Huff.
