‘It’s YOUR Vision’ workshop

Play a key role in shaping future development of the city and your neighborhood. City officials will be holding workshops across Asheville to get input from residents on issues ranging from where to put affordable housing to how new buildings should look. That input will be used in updating the city’s comprehensive plan, called, “Living Asheville.” “Once completed, the comprehensive plan document will guide city staff and elected officials as to what the community wants for Asheville’s future.”

Here are the meeting times and dates:

December 6

  • North Asheville Library, 1030 Merrimon Ave., 12:30-2:30 p.m.
  • West Asheville Library, 942 Haywood Road, 4-6 p.m.

Flapjacks for Families

For many of us, the holiday season means cherished memories with family, gift giving and festive food. However, for families economically challenged, the holidays can be especially tough. Funds and toys collected at Flapjacks for Families will mean a brighter season for those less fortunate. Enjoy pancakes, bacon, juice and coffee all the while making the holidays joyous for those in need.

The Irene Wortham Learning Center provides high quality education and care for children ages six-weeks to pre-k, with and without developmental challenges. The Center currently serves more than 80 children, with 95% living at or below the poverty level. About half of the children enrolled have significant disabilities.

Local celebrity servers will compete for your tips and a chance to win the “golden spatula” at Flapjacks for Families. Additionally, Frozen characters, Anna, Elsa and Olaf will be joining in the fun! All of the proceeds raised and toys collected at the event go to families served by Irene Wortham Center. The breakfast is sponsored by Cane Creek Pharmacy.

Breakfast is $10 per person or FREE with a new, unwrapped toy of the same or greater value.

Kids eat for $5.
