​Here are some ideas:
  • Flyers/invitations delivered door-to-door by hosts or helpers
  • Front Porch Forum message in your area
  • Posts on the Facebook Neighbors Day page
  • An email sent to neighborhood lists (if they exist)
  • Knock on doors to invite people personally
​​​A combination of all of these things will yield the greatest turnout!

We had a neighborhood gathering in Middlebury attended by more than three dozen people, if you count children. It restarted a neighborhood tradition that died a quiet death several years ago. I’ve worked hard on building a distribution list and organizing the neighborhood, initially around the concept of energy efficiency, but there are plenty of issues and concerns moving forward.”

We had a fantastic gathering of people of all ages in Ferrisburgh at Button Bay State Park. Everyone had a blast catching up and making new friends and we are looking forward to next year!”
