Are you keeping up with the Colonial Hills Courier? We post it online of course, and the link is here. Thank you to all our neighbors who have been participating in the block watch. A criminal was caught breaking into cars on Loveman Avenue in early January after and alert neighbor saw them (at 3:30 am!!!) and called the police. Calls to police about “solicitors” have been up as well, and it is all good. Keep up the good work, keep your cars empty of valuables and let’s work together to make Colonial Hills as unfriendly to prowlers as possible.
Special thanks to Sean Buckley for leading our judging effort for this year’s Colonial Hills Decorating Contest. The judges, who shall remain anonymous, have made their choices. Winners should look for a special additional decoration in their yard courtesy of David Nadolny and the scouts.
Just a quick reminder that volunteers will be picking up food from front porches on Saturday, November 19th beginning at 10 am. We donate the food to the Worthington Food Pantry and St. Michael’s Church Pantry, working with Colonial Hills Elementary School. The food benefits families who live in the Worthington School District. Thank you for your generosity!
We noticed this fantastic article in Columbus Underground about living in Colonial Hills by resident Donnie Austin. The next time you stop in House Wine, tell Donnie how much you appreciate the kind words about our neighborhood!
In the November 2011 Courier, the important issue of Riverlea Annexation is discussed. With the election coming up on November 8th, be sure to check it out! We also have photos from our wonderful Halloween kids party and information on Project MORE at Colonial Hills Elementary School.

We had about 300 runners this year – a new record! Here are highlights from the start and the first few finishers. Thanks to all our volunteers, and especially to all our athletes!
Join us for the 2011 Season of Play Café! This program was begun by a group of parents who wanted to drink some coffee, read the paper, socialize, and get the kids out of the house early Saturday morning so their spouse could sleep in! Josiah Royse, on E. Selby Blvd, 854-9944, is running the program. Sometimes we just get out and play, other weekends there are scheduled programs. Join us at the Selby Park Shelter House for this relaxing Saturday morning Colonial Hills tradition!
