2009 Lyndale Open House
It’s finally time for one of the biggest and best Lyndale Events of the year – The Open House. This year’s Open House will be on Thursday, March 19th at the Lyndale Community School (312 W 34th St.) from 6:00 to 8:30 pm. At this year’s Open House you’ll have the opportunity to figure out how you can be the change you want to be.
How do you become the change you want to be? It starts by figuring out what you care about and how you want to improve our neighborhood. Then you check out all the committee’s and other nonprofits who will be happy to get you plugged in.
It might be as simple as visiting the Crime & Drug Committee to see how you can help make the neighborhood safer or talking with the Environment Committee about how you can help make the neighborhood more sustainable. Whatever you’re passionate about, there will be something for you.
This year’s Open House will feature more kid’s activities than ever before. We’re also really excited about the great support we’re getting from local restaurants. This year we’ll be featuring food from: Butter, Champions, It’s Greek to Me, Gigi’s, El Meson, Uptown Pizza, Anodyne, Pizza Luce, Joy’s Kitchen, El Paraiso, Los Andes.
Want to get a head start on the silent auction & raffle, check all of the items we already have on our 2009 Silent Auction and Raffle Items list.
We’re also really excited about the Great Gatherings for this year. Here is a quick list of this year’s Great Gatherings: An Evening in Spain, Lyndale’s Amazing Race, Cementing Memories for your Garden Parkway, Locavore, Oktoberfest, Ponside Morning Yoga, the Garfield Gala, Crafty Day, a Fall Fish Fry, and last year’s very popular Fun on the Farm Day.
