Little Free Library
It’s the first one in our neighborhood, and it’s there for everyone to use. The little library is located directly across the street from 2067 N Hoffman Ave. If you see something you’d like to read, take it. After you read it, you can bring it back, pass it on to a friend, or keep it. Share a book with the library whenever you can. We try to keep it stocked with books for all ages, from babies to adults.
Little Free Library is a nonprofit organization that inspires a love of reading, builds community, and sparks creativity through neighborhood book-sharing boxes.
We are also blessed to have a Springfield-Greene County Library branch close to our neighborhood. The Library Station is located at 2535 N. Kansas Expressway, next to Panera. In addition to the many services offered in the library, they are also sharing children’s story times on the Facebook page. You can follow their page by searching Springfield-Greene County Library District.

We would love to have you follow our Facebook page! We post information about happenings in our neighborhood and Springfield, especially the north side. As soon as we can have large neighborhood events, you can learn about them there.
Halloween Decorating Contest
Congratulations to Tom and Dale Milam, who won the neighborhood Halloween decorating contest and a $25 Walmart gift card! They had some great competition, too! They want to invite everyone to drive by their house (2074 N. Elizabeth) to see their Christmas decorations, and hope that you enjoy them as much as they do.

Showing our appreciation
We are thankful for our City’s public servants, especially our police and fire departments! The Tom Watkins Neighborhood Association took a gift box of steaks to Fire Station #5 and delivered cashew chicken to our PAR officer, Zach Pugh, along with lots of letters and pictures from the kids at Williams Elementary. Thank you, Officer Pugh and the firefighters at our neighborhood fire station – we appreciate you!
