Mandeville Canyon Association Hosts Round Up Celebration
Mandeville Canyon Association held its annual round up on Sunday, Oct. 5 from 3 pm to 6 pm.
This was a fun-filled western-themed activity. A petting zoo with miniature animals was a great hit with the children, and adults.
Ponies were available for children to ride, with supervision for safety. A large variety of food and drink was provided as well as western music that added to the energy of this event.
Buses were provided for residents at 12 locations marked with bundles of hay around the neighborhood as parking is difficult on Mandeville Canyon Road.
Special guests included L.A. Councilman Mike Bonin (Council District 11), his senior counsel Norman Kulla, and members of L.A.’s fine fire and police departments.
Bonin spoke for just a few minutes, joking that he was told he could speak for only 15 minutes. But, as he did not want to lose votes in the future, he would only talk for just two or three minutes. He kept his promise. This was a great event, and I can’t wait until next year.
Cocktails Held In Brentwood Park
The Brentwood Park Property Owners Association recently held a cocktail party in Brad Freeman’s backyard. Members of the Brentwood Community Council were honored for their volunteer service in support of Brentwood.
