Open your garage and join your neighbors for the 10th Annual Northwest Neighbors’ Neighborhood Garage Sale. The Northwest Neighborhood Association will again sponsor this year’s garage sale. The dates are Friday, May 15, 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. and Saturday May 16, 8:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. Anyone in the Northpark, 55th Street Estates, Harborage, White Oaks, Summit or Apple Ridge neighborhoods can participate. You can choose to participate both days, just one day or even start your sale on Thursday if you wish.
There are no fees required of you for your participation, so if you are planning a sale this spring, here is an easy way to receive free advertising. The large number of neighborhood sales, brings lots of traffic into the neighborhood because “salers” have grown accustom to our annual sale and plan on attending each year.
The Association will provide for advertising in the Rochester Post-Bulletin and The Rochester Buyer’s Guide as well as the Mayo Clinic Pages for the sale dates and times indicated in the previous paragraph, but you may have any hours you wish. The Association will also post signs at the entrances to the neighborhood. You are asked to display signs directing traffic to your particular sale. If you have particularly attractive items, you may also wish to place your own sale ad(s).
Additionally, to advertise your sale, there will be an interactive map of the neighborhood for you to itemize the items you have for sale. Use the form below to indicate your address and sale items (limited to 200 characters). A map of garage sale locations can be seen <a href = "http://www.northwestneighbors.net/garagesale.html">here</a>. A printable list of all garage sales can be seen <a href = "/garagesalelist.html">here</a>.

Hello Neighbors,
The coming of the new year brings a new change in leaders in the Northwest Neighbors. Both myself (as president) and Vice President Beth Norduane will be moving out of the northwest neighborhood the first part of 2008. Marla Berg has stepped forward to take the tasks of keeping the big events such as National Night Out and the Halloween Festival going this year. This leaves a big opportunity for new leaders in our neighborhood to take charge of other task such as meetings and this web site.
Until those leaders step forward you will see a few changes in the association. Meetings will only be held to discuss specific critical topic and the quarterly meetings will NOT be held. You will not see the neighborhood newsletter in your mailbox and the web site may remain quiet for some time. If you would like to see these continue going and are willing to lend a hand, please contact Marla Berg.
But, the main events will still keep going! Keep your eyes open for the neighborhood signs at the entrances announcing our yearly events:
Annual Garage Sale in May
National Night Out in August
Halloween Festival in October
Your talents and skills are always needed to help the association grow and to build a stronger community. If you can help with any of the events above or want to contribute in another way to the association, please contact Marla Berg at 280-8954.

The Northwest Neighborhood Association would like to invite you to our 2st Annual Halloween Festival. Children of all ages will enjoy games, prizes, and activities. We will have a costume parade at 6:10 PM so come dressed in your Halloween costume.
Come for the fun and stay for the Quarterly Association Meeting that will follow at 6:30 PM at same location. See agenda details below.
Send any questions to: rochesternwneighbors@yahoo.com

Trees make good neighbors. Since 2006, the RNeighborWoods group has planted 200 seedlings and 338 ball-in-burlap trees in Rochester. This fall the City of Rochester and RNeighbors is offering a grant for winning neighborhood(s) to receive up to 30 free boulevard trees.
Each application must ensure:
All registered Neighborhood Associations in Rochester are eligible to apply for this grant and get brand new boulevard trees to shade their streets.
Applications will be accepted online through Monday, September 24, at 5 pm. Organize your neighbors and plant some trees!
Our Ice Cream Social for Nation Night Out was a great success because of all the great people that came and participated. (And because of all the great volunteers!) Here are a few of the pictures from that night: 2007 NWNeighbors NNO Album.
We hope everyone had a fun and your fill of ice cream!

On Tuesday, Sept 25 you will be asked to vote on a referendum to build and open a 600+ student public elementary school in northwest Rochester to relieve overcrowding in our 15 existing elementary schools. The website link below provides answers to commonly asked questions about this referendum, a map of where the new school will be built, how much your taxes will increase, and a Powerpoint presentation explaining the need for this school.
www.rochester.k12.mn.us/school85/referendum
The Northwest Neighbor Association is neutral on the issue of the referedum vote, but we are willing to communicate others ideas and request for help.
The following is a request from Ginny Amundson a member of the Build for the Future committe:
“Build for the Future is a citizen’s committee supporting this referendum. You can visit their website at www.buildforthefuture.org for more information. The committee is asking for volunteers to help inform the public.
Before the vote, the public has to be provided with information so that they can make an informed decision. One way we are doing this is staffing tables at various events with brochures. The committee is asking your help to staff these tables. There will be training for the volunteers, either in person or online. Two people are needed per shift; the tables will be set up for the volunteers. Currently I am looking for volunteers for the Farmers Market Saturday mornings either 7:45-9:30 or 9:30-11:15. I also need volunteers for the Quarry Hill Fall Festival on 9/15 and 9/16; those shifts are 10:45-1, 1-3, and 3-5:15. If you are able to help with any of these or would like to be on a list for future opportunities, please email me at ginny_amundson@charter.net or call me at 289-2357.”
We had a successful National Night Out again this year with over 500 neighbors coming out to park for some ice cream, fun, safety information, and social.
The Post Bulletin also highlighted our neighborhood which shows the strength of what people can do when everyone comes together. See the video in the Post Bulletin page for National Night Out.
