Stepping in to fill the void
I'm excited that the Coconut Grove Village Council has decided to step up and be a voice for the Grove - not that they aren't already - but in the form of posting news and events.
The Coconut Grove Village Voice will start publishing next week.
They will:
- Begin by publishing a Coconut Grove community blog on a regular basis—at a minimum, once a week, preferably more frequently. Working title: Coconut Grove Village Voice.
- Use their current list and build it to be as inclusive of the Coconut Grove community as possible.
- Report on events, issues, and activities in Coconut Grove, given the limits of their own time and resources. Many of them regularly attend community events. They’ll take photos and report on what happened. They’ll follow up stories by interviewing community leaders and others in the Grove who are doing interesting things. To start, they’ll do this on a volunteer basis.
- Invite contributions of reports and photos from members of the community.
- Stick to the facts.
If you would like to submit items and photos, please send them to coconutgrovevc@gmail.com.
To receive the Village Voice, please subscribe here. If you already receive emails from the Village Council, then you are already on their mailing list.
The next Village Council meeting will be Friday, Feb. 21, at 6:30 in Miami City Hall, 3500 Pan American Drive, where I am sure this will be discussed as part of their agenda.

Now that owner of Miami Herald, McClatchy filed for bankruptcy it is not the right time for the Grapevine to throw in the towel.
