19th Ward Community Association
Welcome to the 19th Ward Community Association!

The 19th Ward Community Association is a group of neighbors striving to preserve the residential character of Rochester, New York's historic 19th Ward neighborhood. The Association fosters and encourages mutual cooperation in a multi-cultural community.  We are a member-supported, volunteer-run, not-for-profit organization.

Our mission is "To create a conscious multi-racial community where individual and cultural differences are celebrated and where people share a sense of community."

President's Message
 

My message this month is a simple one - summer is too short in Rochester, so let's all get out and enjoy it.  Join your friends and neighbors (and come meet some new folks) at Square Fair, Garden Tour, and the monthly pot-luck picnics.

Many of you have expressed a desire to become more involved in the activities of the Association.  Any one of these activities will allow you to do so while taking up just a short period of your time.  Volunteer to work just an hour or two at Square Fair and have the rest of the day to enjoy the festivities.  Cook up a favorite recipe (or settle for one of Danny Wegman's), and just show up for a pot-luck picnic.  Our Membership Committee will have a booth at Square Fair and at the Health Fair described in this issue.  How about offering to sit at the table with a seasoned member of this committee to help spread word of the Association?

Another way to be more involved is to talk to your neighbors about the Association - you can get membership forms from the office, just call Ann (328-6571) and she will be happy to help you out.

Wishing you and your families a happy, safe, and healthy summer.
