Attending a district community meeting offers residents an opportunity to interact with city staff members from various departments such as Neighborhood Services, Police and Fire, Public Utilities and Public Works. Anaheim’s Chief Communication Officer Mike Lyster will present general communication information, including on Anaheim Anytime, which is available for residents to report issues within city neighborhoods such as street light outages or graffiti as well as other concerns 24 hours a day/7 days a week.
Lyster will also discuss the Know Your Way evacuation routes. A fire evacuation survey, specific to Anaheim Hills, will also be available that evening.
Residents will have an opportunity to ask questions following staff presentations. Visit Anaheim.net for more information.
Shop books and more to help the library
The Friends of Canyon Hills Library has planned the next flash book sale for June 17 and 18.
A variety of fiction, nonfiction and specialty books, as well as other items such as puzzles, will be available to purchase, all at bargain prices. Don’t forget to check out the antique and specialty items in the glass cases located in the lobby of the library.
All book sale proceeds enable the nonprofit Friends group to provide various programs and services for the benefit of the community. The sale will be 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day at the branch.

Share in Anaheim’s legacy
Members of the Ebell Club of Anaheim are encouraging Anaheim residents of all ages and backgrounds to participate in a new unique project.
The “2025 Legacy Box” will be taking submitted stories, poetry, photos or drawings to be included and remain in the “time capsule” until 2050. These items can represent personal reflections on one of the 2025 benchmarks, such as five years since COVID-19 emerged; the first 25 years of this century; the 50 years since the fall of Saigon; or the 70 years since the opening of Disneyland or other memorable events.
Since Anaheim is rich in history, Ebell historical items will also be included in the 2025 Legacy Box.
This project is part of the Ebell club’s upcoming Community Enrichment Section and any questions or additional information should be directed to Hilary Lacher at [email protected].
Sharon Hlapcich writes about events and happenings in the Anaheim Hills area. Reach her by phone (714-998-4604 or e-mail ([email protected]).
