Rollingwood Women’s Club Meeting

March 28, 2017 

At the home of Wendi Hundley at 2502 Bettis Drive

President Marissa Mireur called the meeting to order. The Treasurer’s report says we have $22,000 in the bank. The speaker was Marlene Merrick from Brookdale Senior Living. She spoke about the importance of avoiding inflammation in all ages. Inflammation has been proven to lead to insulin resistance, which can lead to Alzheimer’s.  

Flo Macklin makes a motion to to paint the interior of City Hall for $3,300. Lawton Cummings seconds it. The motion passes. 

Lawton Cummings, who is chairing the Spring Egg Hunt on behalf of the Rollingwood Neighborhood Association, asked for donations for the hunt to be dropped off at her place. 

Wendi Huntley updated members about the Parks Commission projects. Priorities are erosion control, irrigation and installing new working water fountain. The water fountain is estimated to cost $4,500. 

Plans for the lower playground include updating the playground equipment to be ADA compliant, updating the ground cover, new swings and exercise equipment. The Commission is also looking into improving trees and other plant life and perhaps adding sculpture to the park. 

The next meeting will be April 25th at the home of Ellen Smitheal at 2823 Timberline Drive.
