Today requires a shift of perspective. Shuffle a bit to the right, lean back to the left... stay on balance. 

Today our Payne and Arcade Ave Friends invite you to join them for a little holiday warm-up.  PABA's Holiday shindig  will be at Brunson's.

East Side Elders share a new book they have put together of photos and stories of residents on the East Side featuring many an ESABA member. And c heck out the expanded sidebar for incredible community events with our partners. 

On Thursday, get the good in focus and set the record straight for 2017 at our  December Monthly Member Meeting.  We'll have two service project components, time for networking, eating Yarusso's pasta and taking some time for  nominating your choice for Business of the Year.  And w e'll enter you to win a little something special - $20 gift cards. 
   
Contribute to our drive with  Merrick for their essentials at the food shelf. See the list for Adult Hygiene Items we're collecting on Thursday. Help us get back to center on the most important things - The Good we can do together.
