The next winner was “The Spider House” on Sebastian. I do not think we have ever seen a spider like that on a home! Glad it was not real!

STONERIDGE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION - WHAT DO WE DO?
Although we like to get out in the community more, COVID has put a damper on several neighborhood meetings and gatherings. We are hopeful for a healthy 2021, and expect to re-engage with the neighborhood soon – live and in person. We normally participate in all sorts of activities like National Night Out, Downtown Tuesday Nights (summer) and other gatherings. If you would ever consider volunteering, we would love for you to join us.
