Outreach efforts

CPNO members set up a “coffee talk” on July 26, 2023, at the Koffi South on Camino Real near the Ace Hotel to raise awareness of our neighborhood organization. We encourage all our neighbors to join online and be on our confidential, low-volume mailing list. It is an important source of information in the event of a public safety emergency in the neighborhood.

First neighborhood social

Our group held its first social gathering on Saturday, July 31, 2021, drawing about 25 neighbors and friends. Several newcomers joined many long-time residents to become acquainted with their neighbors. Everyone was thrilled to spend some time outdoors on what was a relatively comfortable and not too humid summer evening.

The Canyon Palms Board of Directors provided snacks and beverages, and there were delicious home-made desserts to enjoy. We thank the residents of Lobo Way for hosting our event outside their Canyon Palms homes. We look forward to enjoying other events with even more of our Canyon Palms members in the fall.
