PURPOSE
We believe that people should actively participate as citizens in a democracy and as neighbors in a community.
We are a group of citizens interested in working together to maintain and improve the living quality of our neighborhood, motivate the city to address our concerns, be a positive foundation for neighborhood watch programs and build a sense of community among us.
Working together, there is little that cannot be done; working apart there is little that can be done.
We, therefore, join together to form this association, which shall be known as the Grant Beach Neighborhood Association.
AREA OF BENEFIT
The Grant Beach Neighborhood Association is to benefit the area within the boundaries of Boonville Avenue on the East, Kansas Expressway on the West, the railroad tracks just north of Commercial Street on the North and Chestnut Expressway on the South located in Springfield, Missouri.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY MONTHLY MEETING:
The General Assembly of the Grant Beach Neighborhood Association is held on the third (3rd) Monday of each month at the Parish Hall of St. Joseph Catholic Church. Enter on Webster St. or Scott St. and turn onto Lyon Ave. for parking.
We start off with a Potluck Dinner (bring something yummy to share) at 6:00 p.m., so come and share some good food with your Neighbors! At 6:30 p.m., we hold a Meeting, loaded with information for our Neighbors. You do NOT need to be a Member to attend; and we are a very family-centered, kid-friendly group, so kiddos are always welcome too!
Our PAR Officer frequently attends this Meeting; and sometimes our local Firefighters even drop by for a visit!
