Hello Neighbor,

 

Wow, there is a lot happening in Palm Springs this month! As you dash from one event to the next, be sure to take some time to slow down and enjoy the scenery, including the gorgeous green mountains (yes, green!) and colorful wildflowers, particularly the dark pink verbena covering vacant lots and open spaces all over town. As many Deepwell neighbors know, late winter/early spring is a great time to focus on our own gardens, planting, trimming, nurturing and growing. This Saturday is our annual "spring" Plant Swap, where you can bring plants and cuttings to exchange with neighbors. Details are below, along with some other handy information, including how to join our new Deepwell FaceBook group, and the upcoming Palm Springs Police Department Town Hall.

 

We want to thank everyone who helped put together our 2024 annual meeting on February 3rd. It was a fun and information-packed meeting. If you missed it, or just want to relive the fun, you can check out the minutes here.

 

Speaking of thanks, our heartfelt gratitude to outgoing DENO board member Tim Hohmeier for his many years of service. Tim has served for more than two decades on the board, wearing a variety of hats, and we are so grateful for his leadership, guidance, and wise counsel.

 

We are delighted to welcome a new neighbor to the board this month, Rosemary Humphrey. Rosemary grew up in Palm Springs, her parents having moved to the desert in 1949. She and her husband Dave live in Rosemary's childhood home on Cactus, which her parents built in 1956.

 

Stay tuned for more information on upcoming events. Hope to see you at the Plant Swap!

Sincerely,

The Board of Advisors

Deepwell Estates Neighborhood Organization
