Thank you for attending the final gdna meeting of 2026
Thank you to everyone that joined us for our Fall Pot-Luck Dinner and last GDNA meeting of 2026. We also greatly appreciated everyone that bought a side or dessert - it was quite the variety! We elected our 2027 Board of Directors; held a drawing for the membership referrals and had a lot of fun (through the gracious generosity of the Arts Connect Program provided by the City of Roanoke with support from the Roanoke Arts Commission, the Virginia Commission for the Arts, and the Community Foundation Serving Western Virginia) with Kyle Edgell doing caricature drawings. Wishing everyone a safe and happy Holiday Season.
Our next GDNA meeting will be held in Feb/Mar 2027.

THANK YOU TO our adopt-a-street volunteers
Thank you to our Adopt-A-Street Volunteers for September 12th. A decent amount of litter along our streets - with the lower half of MudLick (towards Brandon) being the favorite location for people to toss their litter. Over 50 (yes 50!) Four Loko Big Cans in Jackpot Flavor were located in a 10 foot area along MudLick.
The next Adopt-A-Street pickup will be towards the end of the year - when the weather is cooler, the grass is no longer growing and the bugs are at a minimum. Stay Tuned for the Date.

GDNA Wins Neighborhood improvement award for 2025
On February 12, 2026 at the Roanoke Neighborhood Advocates annual neighborhood awards ceremony - the Greater Deyerle Neighborhood was the recipient of the 2025 City of Roanoke Neighborhood Improvement Award for our work rehabbing our neighborhood gateway signs. This was truly a team effort, with many people contributing their time and efforts to helping us essentially rebuild and improve both their appearance, but also their usability (hanging our GDNA meeting signs). This was made possible with some of the Spark Plug grant money awarded last spring.
