A Message From the President

Hello Good Neighbors,

Although summer is on its way out, I can’t let the season end without a wrap-up of all the incredible things that have happened within our community. This summer saw new and old activities in our neighborhood, and I’m proud of all the accomplishments of our committees and volunteers. 
 
In June, we celebrated our Scholarship Recipients with a reception for one high school graduate recipient and multiple post-graduate recipients! It is such a blessing to be able to support our scholars in this way. Thank you to Cora Duncan-Foster’s efforts in obtaining funds from Huntington Bank to support this effort. I believe the number of scholarships we have given out since the scholarship fund’s inception is approaching 50! We also held our first-ever Board Walk to interface with neighbors. We had no idea it would end up being one of the hottest days of the year so far, but we were fortunate to meet good neighbors anyway, some of whom offered us ice and water as we went along the blocks of our beautiful neighborhood. 
 
In July, Grandmont’s Youth & Education Committee hosted our first-ever Mayoral Candidate Forum at St. Mary’s of Redford. Thank you so much to Father A and the parishioners of St. Mary’s for welcoming us. We invited all primary candidates and had a productive forum of questions from our neighbors with 5 of the candidates. We also held the Annual Garden Tour, where 8 beautiful gardens from the GRDC area and one bonus guest garden were featured. Over $700 was raised for the Scholarship Fund from this event, and planning is already underway for next year’s Tour. 
 
As I’m writing this, we are in the middle of August, but I know that the Annual Reading in Ramsay Park Backpack, Book, and School Supply giveaway will be a smashing success! We also had the third Longacre Street Party filled with family fun: Watermelon eating contests, delicious food, free books, Balloon Art, Coloring Museum Art Project from neighbor Sherri Savage, and much more! We also saw the installation of one more neighborhood sign at the Archdale Lot. This one was created by the Brightmoor Makerspace. I hope that you’ll check it out! It makes me want to transform that space even more into a gathering place for our community. 
 
My big ask, as always, is to find a way to get involved this fall and to make sure you’ve paid your 2025 dues. These awesome events don’t happen without people power, which requires both monetary donations and volunteer time. Even 1 hour to your neighborhood makes a world of difference. We need community now more than ever. If you don’t know where to start, please reach out! My contact information is in the Grandmonitor, and I’m happy to be a connector and get you involved with something you’re passionate about. 
 
Your neighbor,

 

All my best,

Samantha Bonaparte

President, GCA

MAKE A DIFFERENCE

 

Become a Volunteer!

Volunteers are the heart of a community. Our volunteers are a valuable resource for our fast-growing, fast-paced neighborhood.

Our neighborhood relies on our volunteers for everything from staffing special events, such as the Ramsey Park Clean-Up and Community Garden.

We are grateful to all of those who have committed and donated their time to helping our community thrive, but there is still much more to do! Our community needs your help to preserve this work. Grandmont’s membership dues help to provide critical services for our community and neighbors every year. Membership dues help provide snow removal services, safety, beautification, and other services for our community. Every contribution counts and matters! Membership dues for residents are $30 for the calendar year (January- December) and $15 for residents who live in the Southfield and Longacre Apartments. Please consider becoming a Grandmont Community Association member and contributing to our community today! The Grandmont Community Association offers online payment of annual dues ($30) + $2 convenience fee. You will be able to renew your membership or pay for past or future memberships.
