Austin Pearl: over $5,000 raised in Crispus Attucks Park fundraiser!!

See this message from Bloomingdale resident Austin Pearl:

Dear Bloomingdale,

The board of Crispus Attucks Development Corporation (CADC) just wants to say THANK YOU to everyone who came to Sunday`s cocktail party or made a donation online via paypal. We are pleased to report that we raised over $5,000!!! This makes Sunday`s event undoubtedly one of the most successful fundraisers we`ve ever had. For those who came and used the sign-in roster: Please lookout for future e-mails from CADC for opportunities to help maintain the park. Also, if you live on the park or frequently use it, please consider signing up for e-bills in 2013 as a means to make set donations throughout the year. While this fundraiser went great, we are hoping to stabilize at least part of park`s funding stream. For anyone who didn`t make Sunday`s event but still wants to make a donation, please do so here
Again, it costs more than $10,000 a year just to maintain the park in its current state absent any significant improvements.

Sincerely,
Austin L. Pearl
CADC Secretary
