Memorial Day is when we honor and remember those who have served our country in uniform. We hope you take time to reflect on the tremendous sacrifices made to ensure our freedoms.

Akron, in 2007, began another tradition that coincides with Memorial Day weekend, and this year, I hope you will join me in celebrating our 5th annual NEIGHBORS DAY, Saturday, May 28.

Popular throughout Europe, NEIGHBORS DAY has been well received in its benefits for communities and entire cities by bringing folks closer together and promoting peaceful living.

In today’s world, we often know more about what’s happening thousands of miles away than we know about what occurs on our own street. Neighbors Day is designed to change that. To bring us closer with one another.

NEIGHBORS DAY will help all of us create a real sense of community and make our neighborhoods safer.  I hope you will join us.

DONALD L. PLUSQUELLIC
MAYOR
