Training Opportunities Available

The district councils in St. Paul regularly hold trainings for people who are interested in serving as board and committee members in our organizations. These are free trainings that focus on issues such as "Board Basics", zoning and licensing, crime prevention, and conflict management. The get-togethers are held at different locations around St. Paul, usually in the evening. Neighbors from all over the city have a chance to meet and talk about how they can make their communities better places.

The upcoming meetings are:
  • Board Basics, Saturday, Feb 6, 9:30a-noon at Oxford Community Center, 270 N. Lexington Parkway (near Central High School)
  • Zoning and Licensing, Wednesday, March 10, 6p-8:30p at North Dale Rec Center, 1414 St. Albans St. (not too far from Como Park)
  • Community Building and Crime Prevention, Thursday, April 22, 6p-8:30p at Hancock Rec Center, 1610 Hubbard (near Hamline University)
YOU MUST PRE-REGISTER TO ATTEND THESE MEETINGS!! But if you are interested in working to improve your neighborhood, call us at 651.578.7600 and we can get you registered. Or contact Diane Wanner at diane.wanner@ci.stpaul.mn.us and let her know you would like to attend from District 1.

Some of the earlier versions of these opportunities are available on-line as videos.
