WBNA Annual Meeting & Elections

Tuesday, January 31, 7pm

WB Community Center, 2106 Klattenhoff

All residents are invited and encouraged to attend the annual WBNA meeting on Tuesday, January 31, 7pm at the Community Center on Klattenhoff.

We’ll begin the evening with WBNA officer elections.  Click HERE for more info.

We’ve had so much going on in the neighborhood lately, we thought we’d have folks on hand to answer questions about some of the current issues (W2A Acceptance, Affordable Housing, RRISD Redistricting) and also some of the local community service groups (like the Trees for Trails focus group, WB Garden Guild, Women Businesses of Wells Branch). This is going to be a very informal, “visit with your neighbors” type meeting.  Refreshments will be served.  Please join us at 7pm, January 31 in the Community Center!  Let’s make 2012 the best year yet!

Bring your ideas and suggestions for what you’d like to see from your neighborhood association in 2012.  We hope to see you on the 31st!

Be Prepared for Emergencies

by Debby Thompson | 01/20/2012
submitted by Linda Baird

If asked, “Are you prepared for an emergency?” what would your answer be?  With all of the recent wildfires around the Austin area, I realized just how unprepared I was. So, it’s time to get my act together and GET PREPARED!  If you find yourself in the same boat, here are a few suggestions.

Create a “Grab and Go” box.

  • Place important papers in a fireproof and waterproof box or a waterproof backpack sealed in a waterproof plastic bag.
  • Place box/backpack in an easily accessible location.
  • If you must evacuate: Grab your box and take it with you. Keep the box with you at all times and do not leave it in your car unattended.
