PRIDE PARADE 2013
Mandell Place is a very exciting and diverse neighborhood.
Several of our residents thought it would be fun to have a
float in the Pride Parade this June to celebrate how inclusive
our neighborhood is. To pull this off, we need help!
We need residents, artists, DJs, and sponsors to help create,
decorate, ride and fund the MPCA1 float for the 2013 Pride
Parade.
Help make our first year’s entry a reflection of the talent
and Montrose spirit of our Neighborhood, and therefore a
great success!
To join the committee and/or be a sponsor
please contact, by March 22nd,
Nanette nanette.j.hartdegen@gmail.com or
Charles charleslambert1962@yahoo.com, and/or
meet us at Café Brasil, 2604 Dunlavy St.,
at 6:30 p.m. on March 27th
The Pride Parade has the largest attendance of ANY parade in Houston, and
is the largest night time parade in Texas. This event is fun for families, and
the kids love to catch the beads!
1 The float is not being sponsored by, or funded with, MPCA membership dues/funds. 100% of
the float expenses will be covered by sponsor donations or their in-kind gifts, and the generosity of
individual MPCA residents who wish to participate.

Dear Neighbors and Friends,
Every November, MPCA holds an election to establish new officeholders for the upcoming year. Newly elected officers determine the direction and vision the Association will take in support of this fine neighborhood we all live in. Having an Association to represent our livelihood gives our neighborhood a unified voice and a platform through which outside officials and interests can interact with us. That’s why it’s important that if you have a passion or a vision for affecting how we can suport or adapt the improved livelihood of this community, now is the time to become an officer.
Please go to our website or contact the Association at: mandellplace@gmail.com to express your interest.
Even more importantly- if you feel as if not enough is being done, make your voice heard by taking charge as an officer. There is no easier way of impacting our neighborhood or interacting with outside interesets than through MPCA. Empower our neighborhood by empowering yourself!
There are no complicated maneuvers or obstacles for entry: all you have to do is notify any of our current officers of your intent or email below and we will add you to the ballot. On November 13th, election night, those that attend will cast their votes, and results annonced shortly thereafter.
The Positions:
President | Vice President | Treasurer | Secretary
Aside from these positions, anyone and everyone is welcome to join an existing committee:
Beautification | Deed Preservation | Social Coordinator | Membership | Newsletter
You can also create your own committee!
Please go to our website or contact the Association at: mandellplace@gmail.com to express your interest.
