Why be a member?

Your membership helps support the many activities that drive all the productive things that happen in CY such as alley clean ups, graffiti cover, informative neighborhood meetings, beautification events at the gateways of our neighborhood and code enforcement issues just to name a few.

The CYCA arranges for yearly safety forums or town hall meetings, organize block captains, keep in contact and forge good relationships with our local police force to help keep us informed on issues that face our community.

When important things happen in or around our neighborhood that would affect our lives, we collectively try to gather info and find out what residents want. A perfect example is the Fairgrounds Redevelopment happening at our back door.

The LampLighter, our free neighborhood newspaper, depends on ads sold and your support to get the information to you 11 times a year.

As a member, you will be added to our email network that allows you to get reminders of meetings, volunteer opportunities, social functions, safety alerts and more.

We have part-time staff that supplies support and helps organize the committees that help keep our projects on target. These committees include Safety Committee, Membership Committee, Special Events Committee, Race Committee, Beautification and Code Enforcement Committee and Communication Committee.

Our membership committee has worked hard in the past and will continue to work to provide tangible benefits such as free notary services to members, as well as many offers of discounted goods & services from our local membership sponsors.

Collectively, we have a stronger voice when it comes to seeking assistance with our local political leaders and working with the local police department.

Your annual membership enables you to be a voting member of the CYCA.
