I’m a BAPA Member. Are you?

By Melissa Myers, All Wrapped Up

“BAPA is important because it has its finger on the pulse of the community it serves. I love the opportunities and services it affords me as both neighborhood resident and sole proprietor of All Wrapped Up — workshops, seminars, special events and business promotion. One of my most cherished memories is representing Kellogg Elementary in the 2013 Memorial Day Parade (a BAPA production). The parade captured the cohesiveness and very spirit of Beverly/Morgan Park. Just one of the many wonderful things BAPA does for its community. It does my heart proud to know that I can support and give back to a community in which I live as a member of the Beverly Area Planning Association.”
