Sgt. Magiaccomo of the Warwick Police Department describing improvements at Salter Grove to local residents.
Twenty people gathered at the Pilgrim Senior Center on Thursday, October 26 to review the progress made at Salter Grove since the last neighborhood meeting on April 13, 2017. The survey conducted after the April meeting revealed that 80% of participants felt safe access to the breakwater and replacing the playground equipment should be the top priorities in the drive to restore and enhance Salter Grove. Highlights of the Oct. 26 meeting are listed below:
Join us for a meeting at the Pilgrim Senior Center (27 Pilgrim Pkwy in Warwick) on Thursday, October 26th at 7:00 p.m. to learn about advances made at Salter Grove since our first neighborhood meeting on April 13th. We’ve enjoyed two potlucks at the park with beautiful weather and great food in the company of neighbors who value this great backyard we have in common.
A number of new families from the neighborhood came to enjoy our autumn potluck on September 23rd. It felt more like summer with sunshine and blue skies. Light breezes had just enough strength to propel long sinuous bubbles that drifted for yards across the lawn. The youngest bubble maker was only three-years old! New and tasty dishes appeared for the potluck with the return of a crowd-pleasing favorite from before–lemon curd squares. A duo of up-and-coming face painters wowed the two community police officers in attendance as well as others with their artistic creations. A doe and her fawn made a special appearance as they came for their evening stroll in the park.
