Dear Neighborhood Council Leaders, Community Assembly Reps and Alt Reps:
You’re Invited!
Join us on Saturday, November 4, 2023, for the inaugural Spokane Neighborhood Summit. This FREE Summit is a way for Spokane neighbors to gather around community identified priorities, learn together, and grow practices in their neighborhood councils.
Local leaders will present topics relative to the needs of Spokane neighborhoods. Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with neighbors and be inspired and motivated by the efforts of our local community.
Again, the Summit is FREE and open to any current or aspiring member of a Spokane neighborhood council. This half day event will be full of educational workshops, networking, and resources to take home.
If you are the type of person who loves to learn about new topics, exchange best practices, meet new people, and wants to gain or share the motivation to get involved in your community; then mark your calendars to attend.
Capacity for the Summit will be capped at 100 participants so be sure to reserve your spot when registration opens in September. There is no maximum number of members who can attend from any given neighborhood council, so be sure to loop in your fellow neighbors.
Please share the attached flier with your neighborhood council members to save the date!
Are You Interested in Presenting?
The Office of Neighborhood Services and the Community Assembly’s Building Stronger Neighborhoods Committee are currently seeking proposals from neighborhood leaders to present workshops on a wide range of topics related to neighborhoods.
On Saturday, May 27th, 12 neighborhood volunteers came together to weed the traffic circle on Northwest Blvd. It was a great group who come out to help which made the work go quickly. They pulled 1,300 pounds of weeds from the traffic island on NW Blvd. We want to thank everyone who pitched in and encourage everyone to come out and help during next year’s weeding day.
