Elliot Park Earth Day Cleanup
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Elliot Park Earth Day Cleanup. Together we picked up more than 30 large bags of trash. City wide, Earth Day cleanups picked up 7,750 pounds of garbage and 12,000 pounds of metal and recycling.
Huge thanks to the planing team, volunteers whom helped to run the event, and to those who donated food and beverages for our volunteers. Thank you Kim, Rebecca, Marlys, Brian, Rick, Angie, Ramla, the volunteers who grilled 200 hotdogs, Segue Coffee, House of Charity, and MN Adult & Teen Challenge.
A group of passionate residents are working to find a solution to the lack of a grocery/deli in the neighborhood that offers healthy and affordable food. Our goal is to guide the development of an amenity that appeals to all Elliot Park community members and can become a central community hub.
Please take our food survey to help our volunteers better understand community needs.
Keep CVS Open
A group of our neighbors has mobilized and organized to demand that CVS stay open. Please sign their petition to help keep CVS open! Many of our neighbors rely on this CVS for medication, money order services, and basic groceries. Let CVS know that this store needs to stay open!
Elliot Park Art Walk
