Hawthorne Place Neighborhood

A great time was had at the Hawthorne Place Neighborhood National Night Out! It was an evening filled with delicious food, music, games, face-painting, and wonderful community spirit.

A special thank you to Nimmie the Clown for doing a fabulous job face painting. She put beautiful artwork and big smiles on the faces of all the kiddos! 🎨

A heartfelt thank you also goes out to all of our dedicated neighborhood volunteers, Springfield Fire Department, SPD, Mike Horn/Public Works and Jennifer Notariano for Ward 6 Alderwoman for showing up to greet the community.

Events like National Night Out remind us of the strength of our historic neighborhood and the importance of coming together. Thank you to everyone who attended!
