Dear Friends:

As you know I have served on the Neighborhood Council Valley Village Board of Directors for many years now. I am running for re-election on March 20 and hope that I can count on your vote.

Tonight’s NCVV board meeting will introduce all candidates running for election. Please join us at 6:30, Faith Presbyterian Church, 5000 Colfax Avenue. (I baked cookies and brownies for this meeting)

There are many reasons I am proud to be part of this Board, and many great accomplishments our Board has made on behalf of our Valley Village stakeholders. Please see the list below which details the many ways we’ve worked to make Valley Village even better for all our stakeholders.

I hope you will vote for all five incumbent Board members on March 20 – Tony Braswell, Ginny Hatfield, Steven Stokes, Marc Woersching and me. We are so grateful for your support.

Also, PLEASE feel free to forward this to as many people as you can – we need people to vote so that we can keep a strong and effective Board for the next four years.

If you need more information or have questions please don’t hesitate to call or email me.

Best, Dorothy
