We regret to inform the neighborhood that we are cancelling the bonfire scheduled for tonight, 10/5/2018. The location for the bonfire is very wet, and with additional rain in tonight’s forecast, the fire dancers would not be able to perform.
Join the City of Minneapolis Neighborhood and Community Relations at these Registration Day Events on September 25th!
The first step to voting is registering, and being pre-registered to vote is one of the best indicators that a person is more likely to show up to the polls and vote on Election Day. In addition to this, pre-registration is encouraged because it assures that voters will have a smooth voting experience on Election Day.
 Check out all the events on the NVRD Website. [Read more…]
