Month: September 2019

We had a big turnout Sunday evening for the annual Mentelle Neighborhood Picnic. Thanks to everyone for the delicious food and good company.

Special thanks to the picnic organizers; grill master Eddie Owens; Raúl Chamorro Cobo for entertaining us with beautiful Spanish guitar music; Wilson’s Grocery & Meats for donating the delicious hamburgers and brats; Eppings at Eastside for providing wonderful macaroni and cheese and cookies; and the Lexington Fire Department for bringing a fire truck to entertain the children.

Today through Saturday, any Mentelle resident can shop at a Wilson’s and receive a 15% discount with the code MENTELLE (beer excluded.) The neighborhood association appreciates the support of our valued local businesses.
