Community Immersion - Walnut Hills
A Community Immersion
event is a way to intimately get to know
a community that you might not yet have
truly experienced, but needs our
attention. On April 10th, we
will be exploring the community of
Walnut Hills. As we discussed in
the Sounding Sessions on February 23rd
and 24th, Walnut Hills is currently
undergoing a slow and steady process of
community revitalization. Through this
community immersion, we will dig deeper
into the businesses and organizations
that line the streets of Walnut Hills.
We will interact with members of the
neighborhood and for an hour or so, we
will get our hands dirty while directly
helping with a community project. If
you were, or were not able to join us
for our Sounding Sessions on community
revitalization, this event would be the
perfect opportunity to witness
revitalization efforts first hand. We
hope you can join us!
Leave Saturday, April 10th from 10:00 AM
to 3:00 PM open on your calendar.
More details and registration to open up
as we get closer to the event. In
the meantime, check out Walnut Hills @

Back Cincinnati Young Executives' Summary:

This week:
Saturday: Give Back at the Theater - 2:00
PM
Give Back
Cincinnati’s 9th Annual Paint the
Town will be coming to two neighborhoods,
Avondale and Evanston, on Saturday, June 12,
2010. Avondale & Evanston’s Community Councils
will serve as community partners for this year’s
event, providing a valued connection and
assistance between residents and the Paint the
Town organization.
"Avondale and
Evanston is a new opportunity for Paint the Town
and builds upon the success each of these
communities have had with their revitalization
efforts. The June event will be a catalyst to
continue that momentum and change the look and
feel of the community… all done with
volunteers,” said Brent Nawroth, chair of Paint
the Town. Adam Luthman, who is charged with
finding future PTT locations said, “Evanston and
Avondale made hosting Paint the Town one of
their goals in a broader context of making their
communities even better. The recent progress
within each community demonstrates the
effectiveness of their leadership."
"Avondale is elated to be selected for Paint the
Town 2010. Fresh coats of paint for a number of
our homeowners will be a blessing and have a
positive impact on the ongoing work to beautify
our community and improve the lives of our
residents,”
said Patricia Milton of Avondale’s Community
Council. “We
are diligently working to make Avondale an
attractive, welcoming and great place to live,
work, worship and play! We are looking forward
to working with Give Back Cincinnati and plan to
take up our paint brushes and help get the job
done."
Anzora
Adkins, President of the Evanston Community
Council, believes it will allow
Evanston to see a physical improvement in the
community. “Evanston will be on the move again.
We are so excited and thankful for Give Back
Cincinnati to paint homes in our community."
