With summer coming to a close, the kids back in school, and soup season just on the horizon; are you looking for new and interesting ways to participate in your community? Here is a wonderful upcoming opportunity!

 Register today for the Spokane Neighborhood Summit!

Scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 2, 2024, from 8 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. at the Spokane Fire Department Training Center (1618 N Rebecca St.), this FREE event is for Spokane neighbors to gather together; learn alongside one another; and grow practices in their neighborhood councils.

Local leaders will provide valuable resources during workshops relative to the needs of Spokane neighborhoods. So, if you are the type of person who loves to learn about new topics, exchange best practices, meet new people, or be inspired by efforts in the community, then this event is a must to attend.

The Summit is open to any current or aspiring member of a Spokane neighborhood council. Capacity for the Summit will be capped at 80 participants so be sure to reserve your spot as soon as possible. There is no maximum number of members who can attend from any given neighborhood council, so be sure to loop in your fellow neighbors. A catered lunch will be served at the event. Visit the Summit webpage for more information.
