to Good Morning! It is Monday and we still have not gotten a response from Linda at River Oaks Properties concerning our proposed events at East Loop. Such is life... the wait continues.
In the meantime, we decided to start participating in podcasts. I had been turning down invitations for a while now, but we took to it over the weekend, and had our first sit down with LOB. You can listen here... ( https://www.thelobclub.com/podcast/episode/38b99eb8/alonzo-and-celene-east-loop-village-garden ) Thank you so much for having us, Bruce and Sandra -- we had so much fun! Everything we do is with our goal in mind: BUILDING THIS COMMUNITY GARDEN!! . As you guys know - we DREAM of building it behind EAST LOOP VILLAGE at 1861 Joe Battle El Paso Tx 79936. It is a vacant unused parking area at the present moment and the business owners are in agreement with us: there is SUCH A BETTER USE for this area... Right now -- it mostly serves as street connector but its unkempt and unseemly. It constantly gets filled with TRASH from wayward citizens that use our backyard as a dumpster -- we have found everything from ripped out, full-grown trees to CATS, mattresses, and even DEAD PETS. Clean up crews get sent out -- occasionally -- but TRULY... there is a MUCH better way that we can improve the area, bring life and some Greenery to the East Side and make that money go a long way. Our proposal is a NO COST measure that would clean up and BEAUTIFY the surroundings with the help of the business tenants of East Loop, as well as the support of those who hear our message far and wide in the Sun City. Our deadline is fast-approaching as we prepare to submit our proposal for city funds and we would love to know if River Oaks Properties will allow us to continue to GIVE back to our community and clients of East El Paso. The people are eagerly waiting... In the meantime we will continue meeting with leaders in our community and business owners to discuss the many Productions and Plans for a parade, competitions, and festivals attached and connected to the Positive 8 Vibes Movement A Union for the Arts. As well as more podcast and interviews :) El Paso, we are listening. Thank you for believing in us also for your support and trust!

10/5/2023 0 Comments A Snappy weekFirst and foremost we want to congratulate RJ Richard Devera on winning first place in the first Snappy Fingers event. Coming in strong in second place Leslie Council. Your lyrics and rhythm really won the crowd, the beat of your words struck a cord in the audience hearts bringing some to tears. We will be in touch with your concierge prizes. We are excited to announce that Hiram Huertas paintings are still being displayed at Thrive Nutrition 1861 Joe Battle #6 EL Paso Tx 79936. They will be hanging until the next Snappy Fingers date that will be announced tomorrow Thursday along with updates on the other Productions underway. Thank you all for a great time, until next time Good day.
Art Fierro & still waiting on River Oaks PropertiesThe visit with Mr. Fierro and his assistant Mary was extremely pleasant, he was surprised and not expecting a project of this size to be placed in front of him last Friday. He was also amazed to hear that we had already spoken to Mr. Stuart Shiloff (Operations Manager of River Oaks) about this project, and that they took the time to listen. He also advised us on creating a smaller scale project were he can be more hands on financially to kick off the building of the garden, I believe in smaller stages now-3 years to get to the greater goal within 3-5 years. The team is working on that proposal as we speak. We will be emailing Mr. Fierro soon as a follow up shortly this week with all the details discussed and updates to the proposals. After the meeting we went ahead and spoke with Linda Elmendorff, which I was told by Mr. Stuart Shiloff would be in charge of this project and would be meeting with us as a follow up. She mentioned we can have a follow up phone call on Wednesday with updates of her bosses thoughts on this subject. As we all know, we can't move forward with the process without the Developers of El Paso Tx RIVER OAKS PROPERTIES consent. As one of the tenants occupying and leasing the space from them said, I don't understand why they would be against a community project, it would help bring in more traffic to our establishments and beautify our surrounding space. All this while enriching the Arts and helping our youth reach their goals in a safe place, created by the community for our community. With this I leave you all for now.
