Our History
Originally created in response to the disinvestment and rise in crime in Green Bay’s downtown neighborhoods, GBN has improved our community and continues to affect change in our neighborhoods.
Our Projects
GBN is proud to offer neighborhood associations our Activity Inventory, which includes a pop-up movie screen and projector, popcorn machine, bingo kit, sound system and microphones, tents, tables, chairs, and other tools for fun neighborhood activities.
Neighborhood of the Year
2024 was a big year for John Muir Park Neighborhood Association!
The association offered activities which promoted a sense of community, including bingo for adult residents, a book exchange which promoted literacy with young readers, crafts, storytime, and photo opportunities for neighborhood children, a neighborhood rummage sale, and a family movie in John Muir Park.
The association held their annual Improve Your Curb Appeal Contest to promote neighborhood beautification, and they unveiled new public artworks (generously funded through a Green Bay Public Art Commission grant) in 20 locations throughout their neighborhood as part of an interactive scavenger hunt.
In addition to their neighborhood activities, board members also attended various training opportunities provided by GBN.
Congratulations to John Muir Park Neighborhood Association on being named Green Bay Neighborhoods’ 2024 Neighborhood of the Year!
It’s time to become involved!
