As part of this year’s event we are asking everyone attending the picnic to please bring a contribution for the Fort Worth Food Drive.
 For 2016, the Eastern Hills Neighborhood Association will be participating in the Box Tops for Education program to benefit the Eastern Hills Elementary School. This year we would like to help the Eastern Hills Elementary achieve their goal of $1,000 dollars. Currently they have collected over $300 worth of Box Tops. It’s a simple way to make a difference in our community. Just follow these easy steps:  The Box Tops for Education coupons are available on 100s of products that most consumers purchase on a regular basis. Each Box Top is worth 10¢ and that adds up fast. A complete list of products is available on the EHNA and the Box Tops websites. Please clip your Box Tops and bring them to the next meeting or contact Madelyn Wattigney for a pick-up or drop-off information Madelyn’s contact: mcwattigney@gmail.com / 817-903-2583 See the complete product list below: As part of BRIT's Residential Rainwater Program, the Botanical Research Institute of Texas (BRIT) and the City of Fort Worth are offering rain barrels and compost bins for sale from February 15th - April 14th.
