OUR NEIGHBORHOOD'S NEW WEB SITE!

Place this link on your favorites list for quick surfing to our areas events and much more!



The Internet has made it possible for you to easily and conveniently be informed and involved in our neighborhood.

This is our neighborhood's own free, interactive Web site where we can display items of news, notices, meeting schedules, and neighborhood issues and where we can find a remarkable array of direct links to our local schools, community police officers, and local government officials. The site is managed by a committee whose members are listed under "Meet Your Website Committee".
The site is located at < www.MarVistaNC.com >. (Note: "NC", not "CC".) Simply type this Internet address into your Web browser and visit the site to see how useful it can be! Once you arrive, we encourage you to bookmark the site (or make it your home page) so you can return easily and often! The site is dedicated to the free and democratic expression of views and opinions.

In addition to the features mentioned above, our Web site has an easy-to-use discussion area called "Talk About It" that enables all of us to exchange ideas, concerns and questions about neighborhood issues. Our Web site also has a Community Calendar that lists upcoming meetings and events; a Meet Your Neighbor section that allows us to create (or hotlink) personal Web pages; a free Classified Advertising section, and an Add-A-Page feature that makes it easy for anyone to prepare and post Web pages devoted to any topic of interest.

We hope that you will become actively involved by posting announcements and events and participating in this Web site's many interactive features. If you do not have Internet access at your home or office, local libraries have computers through which you can reach our site. Please contact any member of the Web site committee if you need help with posting your input on this Web site.

Our Web site has been made available to us at no cost by Neighborhood Link and its corporate sponsors, who have created a place on the Internet where every neighborhood in our metro area (and others around the country) can have a free, interactive Web site. Many features are "hardwired", which means we have to accept them, even when we do not like them. Among these is the heading for this section which shows the Neighborhood Link logo and on its right makes a reference to a "Newsletter", which, clearly, this is not: This is intended to be a collection of news items. The reporters hope that you will find them and the opinions expressed of interest.

The members of the Web site committee hope you are pleased with this Web site and will make it your own.
