Welcome to the RRLRAIA Community Website!
Congratulations to our own Peter Maloney for his Shining Star award in December 2011 in recognition for all his hard work in helping to get Robert E Lee Park moved from the care of Baltimore City to the County. This award is given by Baltimore County Executive Kevin Kamentz, the County Council and the Department of Recreation and Parks to individuals who are honored as volunteers in their community. Peter worked with many other volunteers to make this happen, including several present and former RRLRAIA Board members, a number of whom are currently on the RELPNC Board with him.
Mother Nature is Beginning to Stir
Posted: 01/20/2012 05:25:32 PM Do we hear and see the sounds of early spring? Yes! Bulbs are starting to pop their heads up above ground and birds are flying around inspecting bird houses for their next big move. So, too, in Robert E Lee Park, spring is starting to show it's face. Check our calendar for dates for the next couple of months' activities - The Great Backyard Birdcount, Bird Walks, and It's Not Easy Being Green Campfire - or go to their website for more information and other future events (www.relpnc.org). |
SWAT Community Clean-up
Posted: 09/06/2011 08:27:24 AM  MEMBERS, PLEASE JOIN THE RRLRAIA SWAT (Stop Waste and Trash) TEAM IN OUR COMMUNITY!
On Sunday, March 4th, at 1pm we will assemble at the Brooklandville Fire Station parking lot to form two road cleaning crews for Falls Road (from Old Court Road to Meadowood Park) and for Old Court Road (from Ruxton Road to Ruxton Green Court). All are welcome, although children must be twelve years or older. RRLRAIA validates school community service hours (remember to bring the service hours form with you). The cars will be unattended so do not leave valuables in them.
Please wear long pants and sleeved shirts or jackets. Do not wear jewelry. Protective gloves, reflective vests, fashionable hats, pick-up sticks and copious plastic trash bags are all provided to make the experience as safe and fashionable as possible!
The exercise is great, the company is wonderful and the contribution to your community is priceless. Get spring off to a clean start and see you on March 4th.
You can click here for the safety information and sign up release forms to bring on March 4th. Please let us know if you plan to help - email us at rrlraia@comcast.net.
A BIG THANKS IN ADVANCE TO ALL WHO VOLUNTEER!

Recycling on your Doorstep
Posted: 06/07/2011 10:07:24 AM Have you ever noticed the wire bin for aluminum cans - marked Amelia's Animal Fund - at the back of the Woodbrook Exxon Station? Obviously, many of our families now have, since as of the beginning of February, 2012, recycling the aluminum cans has brought in $454 for the animal shelter. A big thank you from Amelia and her family to all in the RRLR area!
Amelia continues to collect cans from her neighbors and friends for this cause. Amelia is the daughter of the Exxon Station's owner, Steve Merrill, and a big animal lover. She came up with this idea when she was thinking about a Girl Scout project about four years ago when she and her dad bundled up cans and took them to a local recycling center. The funds received from recycling go to a shelter in Harford County, Luna's House (www.lunashouse.org), or her dad might use the funds to buy animal food to take to the local shelter. So, why not bag up your cans and drop them off in the bin at the back of the Exxon Station (at the corner of Charles Street and Woodbrook Road) the next time you stop off for gas; Amelia and her furry friends would be very grateful!
Also at the gas station you will find more signs of Amelia's big heart and busy hands: a basket for used eye glasses inside. Instead of tossing them out, why not drop them in the basket, too. |
