Annual Meeting
If there's one event to attend from the East Harriet Neighborhood Association each year, it would be the Annual Meeting. This is where we share what we've been up to the past year as well as invite speakers and host activities that'll be of interest to the neighborhood.
At this meeting, we also conduct elections to fill vacancies in the Board. Those interested in learning about the EHNA Board are encouraged to reach out at info@eastharriet.org. FYI: EHNA has a few board positions opening up this year.
