Friends Of Fair Oaks

Hi everyone! If you’re coming over from Meetup, welcome. If you’re finding us here for the first time, we’re glad you’re here.

As mentioned on the other platform, we are moving our primary communications here to the FOVEC website. This change allows us to stay better connected to local Village initiatives while keeping our overhead low so we can focus on what actually matters: our community.

🛠 Help Us Shape "Friends of Fair Oaks 2.0"

While the platform has changed, our goal remains the same—strengthening the heart of Fair Oaks. However, since we are "rebooting," I want to make sure we organize in a way that actually works for your schedules and interests.

I’d love to hear from you in the comments:

1. Meeting Style: Do you prefer casual "mixer" style meetups (like our recent Jan 20th gathering at Ladybird Tea House), or more structured project-based meetings?

It’s time to gather again! Join us Tuesday, Jan 20 at 5:30 PM for an in-person meetup at Ladybird Tea House📍 10120 Fair Oaks Blvd, Fair Oaks

Bring:🍷 Your favorite drink or appetizer to share💬 A topic (or two!) you’d love to chat about😊 Your love for Fair Oaks and good conversation

Let’s reconnect, catch up, and share ideas to keep Fair Oaks an even better place to live, work, and play.Hope to see you there!

Defining a vision for the future is hard. Fortunately, we don't have to start with a clean sheet of paper. In 2008 FOVEC created a vision document based on extensive community outreach and expert facilitators. While many of the goals of this document have been achieved, some remain and the approach taken can be leveraged now to help us get started.

It is easy to fall in love with Fair Oaks Village.

The historic buildings, Village park, the red bridge, the American River Trail, and of course, the chickens.

But change is inevitable, whether we plan for it or not.

This topic is for anyone interested in helping define and fight for the changes that make our village better.

Join us as we build consensus around the changes we want to see. Help us educate, promote positive changes, and discourage poor choices and code violations.

👋 Something new is coming to Fair Oaks!

With the park about to reopen, it’s the perfect time for neighbors to come together, share ideas, and enjoy time as a community.

That’s the vision behind Friends of Fair Oaks — a monthly social gathering starting this September.
