Get involved.
The Old West End would not be what it is today without the commitment and volunteerism of its diverse residents. There are many ways to get involved—a wide range of committees, groups and boards to join. Neighbors are encouraged to be find one (or several!) that fit their interests.
Also, attend Old West End Association meetings! All neighbors are welcome. Click here for meeting dates.
