Who We Are
The Heart of the Westside neighborhood invites you to be a part of making our neighborhood a great place to live in Springfield. We are involved with providing events throughout the year such as the Easter Egg Hunt, Block Parties, Bar-B-Qs and other fun activities for the whole family. Additionally, the Association works to obtain grants for special projects such as neighborhood clean-up and enhancements to our area. We work closely with our Police Representative, Caring Communities, the City of Springfield, other neighborhood associations and more to learn and grow together.

Frequently Asked Questions
When does the Board Meet and who can come to these meetings?
The Board meets every month on the 2nd and 3rd Thursdays. The 2nd Thursday is a full neighborhood meeting with speakers and open floor. The board itself meets on the 3rd Thursdays to plan events and discuss meetings. Everyone is invited to attend either meeting but strongly encouraged to participate in the Monthly H.O.W. meetings on the 2nd Thurdays.
Why was I asked to be a voting member and why does it cost $5?
Voting membership allows you to get your voice heard. There is no funding for neighborhood associations so this is our only means of getting some basic money to do things for the neighborhood. Your $5 will allow you to vote and is a one year membership.
"We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It's easy to say, 'It's not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem.' Then there are those who see the need and respond. I consider those people my heroes."
Mr. Rogers
