 Co-Chair
Monthly Newsletter Editor
Zoning Chair
Neighborhood Representatives (all neighborhoods)
The Mordecai CAC is the Mordecai Community Action Coalition. We are a coalition of multiple neighborhoods working together to provide ways for citizens to share information, meet each other, and take action in our community. Neighborhoods include: Pilot Mill, Oakdale, Mordecai, East Mordecai, North Person/Blount, Cotton Mill, Capitol Park, and part of Oakwood.
CO-CHAIR: We still need a new MCAC co-chair. This person will serve a two year term and be responsible for working with a partner to plan meeting agendas and lead the direction of the CAC. If you are interested or know of a neighbor that would be good for the job, we'd love to talk to you.
Please contact Merrilee Jacobson at chair@mordecaicac.org.

Corner Pantry Items Needed!
Please keep our neighborhood Corner Pantry in mind for donations as you are able. It is at the corner of Glascock and Watauga Streets. We continue to welcome all to take what they need and leave what they can. The Corner Pantry has been utilized a great deal since being built, so please help us maintain inventory by dropping off non-perishable foods as you are able. Thanks!
