UPDATE
Hello, just a note to let you know recent stuff around the area.
The Life Fair sponsored by SouthWest Inter-Faith Ministries was held on Saturday, Aug 8th at the Osage Park Recreation Center. 42 families were given a $10.00 voucher to be used for school supplies. Other information was given to the people by the local churches and job search help.
I think it went quite well, especially for a first time effort. Lots of applause should be given to those who spent months getting ready for this fair. Wayne Dean is the leader of this group. Darlene Nuse and Donna Bontinelly(sp) were also tireless workers.
SWNA provided 3 each $10.00 gift cards from Wal-Mart, and we had a drawing for those at the end of the fair. Boy Scout leader from Mt Olivet UMC did the drawing. Winners were: Beth Adrian, Tracy Reed, and Brandy Germany. We gave out key chains with our logo on it, and fliers telling about the Association.
I hope that some of those people will join us at our meetings.
Regarding the post office issue, we are still pursuing the postmaster with phone calls and letters. Please continue to let your neighbors and friends know that this is the avenue we are taking at current time.
Mt Olivet UMC, Pastor Ed and Joy Bateson, are willing to prepare a meal for our volunteers after the November 14th clean-up. We will use the parking lots of St Anne's Catholic Church and Mt Olivet as sites designated for the dumpster skids provided by City of Wichita. We are also supposed to have a tire truck that will pick up and dispose of old car tires for us. The clean up hours will be 8:00 am until noon. Volunteers should plan to be at the site about 7:30 am that morning.
I know I can count on all of you to help.
Until we meet again on Tuesday, August 25th, at the West Side UMC, 1313 W Lydia, 7:00 p.m., be joyful and enjoy life.

Chisholm Station Post Office
2510 S. ELIZABETH AVE
WICHITA, KS 67217-9998
(316) 264-0114
Our Local Chisholm Station Post Office located at 2510 S Elizabeth Ave. behind the Westway Shopping Center has been put on a list of possible closings due to federal budget reasons. We believe the Post Office has been a great asset to our community and provides a local service of customer service that we would dearly miss if the doors would close permanently. The SWNA is urging residents of our community to contact the USPS and our elected officials in making sure this office remains open to serve our community. Below is a letter to print and mail or email to our elected officials along with the phone number to the USPS. Both forms of communication need to be done to make our goal in keeping our local Post Office.
Thank you for your support SWNA
