  • Mark your calendar and be sure to come!
    The dedication of the mosaics added to the Steck Avenue Bridge just west of the Steck/Daleview intersection will be held Saturday, December 14, from 10-11 a.m. at the bridge.

    The mosaics were designed and created by a group of dedicated volunteers who worked on this project for months. Their hard work paid off, and the results are beautiful! Thank you to the Beautification Committee and to everyone who worked on this  beautiful art installation.


  • NSCNA’s annual Luminaria Walk will be Wednesday, December 18, from 6-8 pm at the Pillow Elementary School track. All North Shoal Creek residents are invited to come enjoy a beautiful luminaria walk followed by hot cocoa and cookies with your neighbors.

    This event is possible only if neighbors volunteer to help out. About a dozen hardy and hard-working volunteers are needed to assemble and place the luminarias from 4-5:30 p.m. and to light them between 5:30-6 p.m. More volunteers are needed for clean up afterwards, from 8-8:45 p.m. To volunteer, please email social@nscna.org. Please tell us when you’ll be arriving and how long you can help out. This is a family friendly event, so volunteers of all ages are welcome. Youthful energy is especially welcomed to place the bags around the track!
