National Night Out 2010 in East side St. Paul, MN

       

Thank you to all volunteers and contributors for your participation at the National Night Out 2010 event hosted by the American Legion Post 577 and 474, the Polish –American Club, and other community organizations.

 

Your contributions and services propelled our neighborhood block party to new heights with an attendance up to 280 people this year. We hope to invite you to join us again next year and make National Night Out in our neighborhood a continuing annual event.

 

  The National Night Out 2010 event is a nonprofit community event. Last year, the American Legion Post #577 held its first National Night Out event with a surprising attendance of over 250 residents. We met last years attendance with more people showing up and failing to register our guest book although many of them were children.

We celebrated the diversity of cultures in the neighborhood, which I had hoped to have the Hmong people come out of their ethnocentric cultures and meet their neighbors for community solidarity. The East side neighborhood can flourish when the people finally meet and know one another, which reduces crime. 

We had many Games that included a Fishing game, pop ring toss, sucker tree, Twister, duck pond, and a Dunk tank.

We hosted excellent entertainment only by personal experience a person could enjoy that includes:

Acoustical Music and Songs by Randy Burger, Woodville, WI,  rmburger@hotmail.com--Check out MySpace for further details;

Back to Back with Diamond-Mac (Neil Diamond and Stevie Nicks Tributes) Stewartville, MN --fantastic likeness of Neil Diamond and Fleetwood Mac. (612) 876-1094 or (507) 319-1094
--Audio produced by Tom Hilber dba Sober Rose Productions, St. Paul, MN--Tom also plays in a band that is available for bookings. (651) 491-6286  banjotomh@aol.com

Christmas

I want to thank everyone who took the time to read my posts. That worker at the food stamp office was just plain mean and doesn't care if my grandson gets a gift for Christmas or not and I've been so worried about what I'm going to do for Christmas. Since I've never had to ask for help, I had no idea how to go about getting him on a list of some sort and she refused to tell me. He is 11 years old and understands we don't have any money, but I wanted to get him some kind of a gift.

My husband worked for 15 years at his first job when he was laid off from it. He worked 20 years at his second job when they down-sized. He had Spinal Meningitis when he was a baby and then had Polio when he was a small child. He's had a lot of pain in his back and legs in the past few years and was seeing a doctor when he lost his job and insurance. I had back surgery several years ago but the pain never did go away. I can sit for a little while and stand/walk for a little while. I have been walking down the road just a little bit at a time for months to pick up cans to sell, and made enough to buy a heater but didn't have anything left for Christmas.  

Thank you for reading and Merry Christmas. I have to go to the library to get on the computer so I will check back in as soon as I can get there.

I want to help out my Mom so I am wishing for my youngest sib to get a Christmas, My mom is unable to work due to spending most of her time at her parents taking care of them and she also has a disabled husband.

She has five kids her oldest ones are old enough to understand,her 13 yr old doesn't care that she cant work and still wants everything but MY 10 YR OLD SISTER is truely an Angel, she never asks for anything, She does everything she can possibly do for everyone never expecting anything in return. She knows Christmas presents won't come this year and she is totally understanding but she is a kid, and you can tell in her eyes it makes her sad. She doesn't have a father(he left when she was tiny) so while my moms other kids have another side of a family to go to for Christmas, She doesn't have anyone else.

This is a child that deserves the biggest Christmas imaginable and I just want her to see how proud and thankful we all are for her and everything she does.

I am a full time student/ Single Mom and am trying to work p/t too and I plan on trying to help my mom as much as i can,but I also have a child this Christmas, but Luckily mine isn't old enough to really know,understand or remember.

Thank You For Reading! God Bless,and Happy Holidays

Thank you and God Bless All of You!
