All Atherton residents are encouraged to become a member of this electronic message forum, "Athertonians." This group was started to facilitate communication between residents of Atherton on important or time-sensitive matters and events pertaining to our neighborhoods and community. Messages with information about broader community issues and events that will be of interest to a majority of residents of Atherton are welcome but will be moderated. Please send messages with notices about events and programs of interest primarily for Atherton residents directly to "Athertonians@yahoogroups.com." Emergency notices that pertain to Atherton will also be forwarded. This group currently does not replicate the Town of Atherton Administrative notices of Council or Committee meetings or other town business. "Athertonians" will not post personal, political, or denominational events nor any commercial solicitations or spam messages.

We urge you to join and invite other residents that you know to join, to help make this the valuable resource that it can be for residents to stay informed. All email addresses remain confidential. You may select the timing, style and frequency of when messages get delivered and, of course, you may opt-out at any time. We welcome you to share the benefits of this electronic community message board.

Residents who have not received a membership invitation or an approved member acceptance email who wish to join should go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Athertonians and click "Join this Group" to receive timely Atherton notices. Be sure to include your Atherton address to be approved.
