This Sunday, July 12th, 2009, jump aboard for the Hillsborough CAC Trolley Tour & Open House.

  • 1st Trolley Tour departs @ 3 p.m.
  • 2nd Trolley Tour departs @ 5:30 p.m.

The Trolley Tours will feature the Pullen Park, Cameron Park, Cameron Village and West Morgan neighborhoods as well as NC State.  Tours will be guided by folks from our neighborhoods.  Both Trolley Tours will depart from the parking lot across from the Velvet Cloak Inn, 1505 Hillsborough St. Each tour will last approximately an hour.

Between tours, the Hillsborough CAC and folks from all four neighborhoods will host an Open House from 4 p.m. until 5:30 p.m. at the AFL-CIO State offices at 1408 Hillsborough St.  Stick around after the first tour or come early for the second tour to enjoy food, refreshments and neighbors!

Kids welcome!   The tours and the open house event are free, however, due to limited trolley space we ask that folks RSVP for the tours.  Contact Gail Brock to RSVP for the trolley, and please specify which tour you plan to attend.

For any additional questions or to volunteer to help with the event, call Ana Duncan Pardo at (919) 818-5933.

I work with other neighborhood leaders in District D alongside City Councilor Thomas Crowder, on the District D Neighborhood Alliance (DDNA). I've completed Raleigh Neighborhood College (Spring 2005) and Leadership North Carolina (May 2007). In 2009, I lead a group of neighborhood volunteers to review Raleigh's 2030 Comprehensive Plan. I have a genuine interest in strong communities, fostering diversity, understanding the issues, and being transparent in my work. You can follow me on Twitter: @jhibbets
