Board and NRP members wanted!

Guess who is turning 40?
LHENA!

In 1970, faced with plummeting property values, house demolitions on every block, and spiking crime, a small group of concerned homeowners banded together to preserve historic, turn-of-the-20th-century homes and promote livability in the neighborhood through a variety of efforts.

They formed the Lowry Hill East Neighborhood Association (LHENA), one of the first grassroots neighborhood associations to organize in Minneapolis, which in turn set the precedent for many of the other 65 organizations currently in existence.

2010 will be marked by anniversary celebrations throughout the year. We hope to honor and recognize the major impact those residents and this organization have had both in our neighborhood and throughout the city.

The kickoff will begin at the LHENA Annual Meeting on April 21st with a major commemoration tentatively-scheduled for Saturday, June 19th. Anyone who would like to volunteer for the planning committee is asked to contact either Kathy Kullberg at 612- 374-4456 or LHENA at lhena@thewedge.org or 612-377-5023.
