JOIN US!
ENN-NEON is one of almost a dozen block clubs in the Edgewater neighborhood. Originally comprising two clubs -- Edgewater North Neighbors and Northeast Organization of Neighbors -- we combined forces to represent the north central section of Edgewater.
Everyone in the area bounded by Devon to Granville and Broadway to Clark is automatically a member and welcome to attend any of our meetings. We do request a $10 annual membership to help us cover communications and other expenses and also for the privilege of voting at our meetings.
We are committed to improving the lives of residents and the environment within its boundaries and throughout Edgewater. ENN-NEON shall endeavor to foster communication among its members and to provide a voice for its members on matters affecting its residents and the Edgewater community. ENN-NEON shall be non-partisan, non-sectarian, and non-commercial.
We’d love to have more neighbors on our Teams. Let’s work together to build friendships while having fun and improving our community.
