Greater Toluca Lake NC Honors Elementary School Computer Teacher

The Greater Toluca Lake Neighborhood Council (GTLNC) met on Tuesday night at 7 p.m. in the Toluca Lake Elementary School auditorium, and discussed several topics such as the new GTLNC Web site design, past and upcoming community events, recent crime and a Good Neighbor Award presentation.

Alice Roth, Deputy District Director of Council District 4, presented the Good Neighbor Award to Teddy Hall, a woman who helped create and maintain Toluca Lake Elementary School's computer lab. Ms. Hall was involved from the very inception of the lab, and has worked on running and improving it for the past 17 years. Carol Reo-Bove, the principal of Toluca Lake Elementary School, brought up a bouquet to Ms. Hall, as a gesture of gratitude from the teachers and staff of the school. 

Heidi Dublin and Janice Eaton, briefed the attendees on the slight increase of crime, mostly burglaries in the area, and offered advice to help prevent crime. Several other board members shared recent stories about criminal activities, and Dylan Conroy, GTLNC's treasurer, warned residents about an unknown, suspicious "guy on a motorcycle" who was allegedly stalking his wife.

Daphne Kozek and Cornelio Gutierrez-Lozano talked about attending an intenational coastal clean-up, where they paddled a kayak from the Santa Monica Yacht Club and cleaned up trash and debris in the marina. Daphne also brought up an event organized by the GTLNC, a Halloween-themed bike ride through the community, called "The Toluca Lake's Bike Tour through the Halloween Homes" to be held on Oct 30.

Ryan Altoon, GTLNC's Vice-President, gave a public debut of the new GTLNC Web site, using a digital projector to show the attendees the difference between the current site and the upcoming site, and he detailed the major improvements being implemented for better communications between residents and the GTLNC.

The attendees were also reminded about Fritz Coleman's Comedy Night Under The Stars, to be held in the garden of the Bing Crosby Estate this Saturday, Sept. 24, and also the GTLNC Summer Mixer on October 7th. Food was provided by Chipotle, located in Burbank.

Dolores Hope, Bob Hope's wife and a longtime resident of Toluca Lake , was remembered in the adjournment of the meeting.
