EFCA Spring Clean Up is Postponed to tomorrow due to rain!

Please plan to join us tomorrow morning, Sunday 4/23 at 9 am!  Coffee and donuts provided along with trash bags!  Remember to wear comfortable walking shoes and gloves.  It's also helpful to have a "trash grabber" to pick up trash.

Hopefully, we'll find it drier tomorrow.

The U.S. Army's Aberdeen Test Center has scheduled operations that officials say may be noticeable in the surrounding communities. The tests are planned for Monday, April 10, to Thursday, April 13. They will be held during the daytime hours. Anyone with concerns about noise at APG may contact Heather Roelker at 410-278-1775. (Media Reporting)

Nextdoor Elk Forest

Hi all!  The EFCA Board recently became aware of another way for our community to stay connected, via a private online network called Nextdoor Elk Forest.  On our Nextdoor site, neighbors can share community events, recommendations, items for sale, crime reports, ideas about how to improve our neighborhood and more.  I will use the EFCA email list to invite you to join.  

I signed up on Tuesday, and almost immediately received an alert from the Cecil County Sheriff's office regarding the route 40 closure due to the police activity there that day. Friends of one of the Board members, whose neighborhood has a Nextdoor site, related that their neighbors identified suspicious behavior in their neighborhood, resulting in arrests by the police.  
This email will also post to the elkforest.com website, and any resident who would like to be invited to join Nextdoor Elk Forest can send me a request with their email so that I can invite them.

Hi Kathy, a boat washed up on our beach and no one has claimed it. If you wouldn't mind posting it for the EFCA members in case it belongs to one of them? Thank you!
