Invite a Neighbor to Dinner Day


In this season of good will towards our fellow man, I would like to express my hope that everyone had a happy and safe holiday season.  I look forward to a new year serving the people of the 10th Senatorial District.
 
I also want to focus for a moment on a resolution that passed back in November.  Pennsylvania Senate Resolution #306 marks every second Saturday of January as Invite a Neighbor to Dinner Day.ô  The brainchild of the Smith family of Doylestown, the concept is a rededication of suppertime as a community building tool.  Inspired by the need to make a difference stemming from the destruction of September 11th, Invite a Neighbor to Dinner Dayô seeks to open doors, mend fences and build community relationships.
 
In this uncertain world, it was not difficult to see the value in such a simple yet, wonderful initiative of creating positive relationships within our neighborhoods.  When approached to make it official, it was something that I was more than willing to do.
 
Passing the resolution was easy, but the Smith family has gone the extra mile to make this project a real success.  I invite you to peruse their site devoted to the project.
 
I encourage everyone to make the effort and on January 11th invite a neighbor to dinner.
