Meeting in Corrales, June 2018

     There are several hundred "villages" across the United States and more than one hundred villages in formation, such as our village.  In New Mexico, there are several existing villages (in Albuquerque, Corrales, Santa Fe, and Taos).  In June 2018, Parkland Hills Village (as we called ourselves at the time) was invited to join the Village in the Village in a meeting in Corrales, along with a couple of other villages in formation on the west side of Albuquerque.  Five members of the (then) Parkland Hills Village Steering Committee participated in the meeting.

     People involved with the Village in the Village have been tremendously helpful to us in the organization of our village, Parkland Village.  Although Parkland Hills and Southeast Heights neighborhoods are different in many ways from Corrales, with the help of "villagers" in Corrales, we have not had to "reinvent the wheel", but merely modify "the wheel" to suit our particular needs and goals.
