Sign Up for Neighborhood Updates

Join Allandale's newsgroup and receive information about neighborhood happenings via email. To subscribe, send a blank email to allandale-subscribe@yahoogroups.com. Just  reply to the  subscription confirmation email that you'll receive in response and your set. This is the best way to learn about neighborhood happenings and follow discussions on matters of interest to Allandale residents. It's free and you can unsubscribe at any time. You can also set it up to receive a daily digest of postings to the listserve.

Here are a couple of features of the listserve worth noting. Rather than receiving the emails to the listserve separately, you can receive a digest version which comes to you as a single email containing the day's postings. Also,  here's a link to the listserve's archives which go back to 2001 and are searchable.
