Welcome to the NNA Playgroups page!

I am so glad you have found this page, and I hope that you are able to connect with new friends and neighbors as well as learn about our Northwest Neighborhood Association.

The NNA is a group of residents who have come together to improve our neighborhood, foster connections, provide a forum for discussion, and support local causes. We are not a regulatory body nor do we have any enforcement authority. We are just a group of people who love our neighborhood.

We're now hoping to reach out to more young families and help us (myself included) to connect with each other and neighbors and build a larger community. Many of the current NNA socials are less accessible for those of us with small children. While these socials are a lot of fun, and well worth getting a babysitter for the night, sometimes we miss out. So we have decided to start a monthly playgroup.

How will this work?

This is meant to be a casual and fun environment where we can all get to know each other without any pressure. We are going to start with meeting the second Wednesday of each month from 10am-noon.  If we start to see that this time doesn't work for most, we will adjust as needed. We hope you can make each month, but if you miss, you won't be thrown out! If you can join us-- great, we'd love to see you. If not, we hope to see you next month!

This playgroup will be set each month via this blog. I will update with the date as well as a location. Everything will be dutch treat, but I am hoping we can build up to having a group large enough to qualify for group discounts at some local indoor play areas such as The Jungle Gym. If you have any ideas as to where we could meet up during the winter months, or if you would like to host a gathering, please let me know.

Please, comment on this page or contact me, Tara Salsman, if you have any feedback regarding the time or location or the group as a whole.

Membership

This group is intended for NNA members and their guests. If you are not a current member of the NNA, please feel free to join us on our next gathering. Not only will you meet other members, I will have more information about the group as a whole and our upcoming events and socials. You can also click on the NNA tree logo above that will take you to the NNA website. It is a great group of people who truly care about our neighborhood and town. Dues for the NNA is just $10 a YEAR, $20 for a couple.
