What can the Ellis Street Graded School Neighborhood Association do to help you? That is up to you. Do you have concerns about things in your immediate area? Concerns about vacant homes...empty lots...noise...unseen landlords...dangerous situations....etc. Contact your officers and share your concerns.


Kathy Walters has a map of our area as well as names of homeowners. If you have concerns about a rental property and need to know the name on the owner, contact Kathy at


What is next for our new association? The Alley Cat Halloween Party on Saturday, October 31 in the alley located near the corner of Liberty and N. Ellis. Details to follow but this will be planned for after dark so children will be able to trick or treat around town. Please plan to come and eat some ‘Halloweenies!”


If you know neighbors not on the email list, please share this info with them. What a great reason to talk with each other!! Email addresses for other neighbors may be sent to Debbie Lesley at
