Last year’s North Star Awards event was a wonderfully successful and uplifting evening. We are continuing this tradition of honoring Northside residents for their community building efforts in this year’s Fifth Annual North Star Awards on Friday, December 7, 6:00 pm at Warner Park Community Recreation Center.
We invite you to help us recognize and honor all the large and small contributions made by Northside citizens that help to make our community a better place to live. Too often people don’t realize that their contributions are important, so we want to create an ongoing legacy of recognition and appreciation.
Please download a nomination form and send it in today!

Along with your nomination, we ask for your support for the

Council members and staff work to improve the quality of life of all Northside residents through community building and advocacy. Our community newspaper, the Northside News, chronicles many of these efforts – such as our work to bring a grocery store back to our community, advocating for safer biking opportunities and a public swimming pool at Warner Park, and improving student achievement at our Northside schools.
Please become a sponsor of the 2007 North Star Awards – support the “North Stars” of our community and the work of neighbors and groups through the Northside Planning Council.
Thank
you for your support of our Northside Community! We hope to
see you at the North Star Awards on December 7!
