An old friend of the Glen, Beverly Glen Playgroup, has agreed to be a new Silver sponsor for 2011 – 2012!  Formed in 1946 and serving the Glen and Glen kids since that time, Beverly Glen Playgroup operates out of our Les & Dorothy River Community Center with a high quality preschool education serving Glen kids as young at 2 years old.  As a progressive co-operative preschool, Glen families can be actively involved in a rich, creative environment that has lead to decades of alumni, many of whom now send their kids. 

For information on Beverly Glen Playgroup, go to www.beverlyglenplaygroup.org.

For those with children over 2 years or older as of September 1, 2012, applications are due December 15th, you can find detailed information at http://www.beverlyglenplaygroup.org/apply/summary-of-application/

Also note that as of last year, Beverly Glen Playgroup has started the Chris and Rhoda Holabird fund for financial aid for Glen families in addition to the Susie Evans fund for all families.  More information is available by contacting Playgroup.

Beverly Glen Residents:

There will be a protest at the Hotel Bel-Air on FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14th, likely starting at 4 pm, but possibly earlier.  Expect traffic on Sunset between Stone Canyon and Beverly Glen to be more difficult than usual during Friday rush hour.

Here’s the link to additional information from the Bel-Air Association.

Additionally, Beverly Glen will be completely closed between Ventura Blvd and Mulholland Blvd on Saturday, October 15th and Sunday, October 16th from 6 am to 6 pm for resurfacing.  Expect additional delays around Mulholland as people will have to be diverted to the east and west.

Thanks for your patience with these issues.  We will bring you additional information as soon as we access it.

Coming full circle, Residents of Beverly Glen resurrected a program from 12 years ago where resident volunteers logged speeds of those violating our speed limits on Beverly Glen.  With a quick training session with LAPD, RoBG was provided a radar gun and the training to log speed violators who then receive warning letters from LAPD.  Repeat offenders may get a personal visit from LAPD at their home, as was done in the Palisades Highlands.

Whether its a commuter or resident, no one has the right to drive unsafely in our neighborhood.  If your concerned about the unsafe speeds on Beverly Glen, contact traffic@beverlyglen.org to volunteer for our Speedwatch team, all it takes a 1 hour a month to make a big difference to let drivers know they are being watched, Speedwatched!
