On June the 6th, 2006 The Downtown Neighborhood Association will launch the Downtown "Start It Up" Program.

The program encourages people to start up their own group, club or society around any personal interest.

"The purpose of this program is to connect more people Downtown, and it's one of the many ways the ADNA continues to promote good quality of life in our neighborhood," says Pablo Henderson, Vice President of Membership.

How It Works

Participants enter a competition to organize a group by July. Groups who must meet Downtown monthly at least three times before Tuesday, November the 7th.

The group must be linked by a common passion or curiosity varying from hobbies and activities to intellectual or cultural pursuits.

The Competition

Groups will submit a final package by the competition deadline that may include photos, scrapbooks, video or personal accounts describing the group's formation and why they should WIN the Grand Prize valued at $5,000 including $1,000 in cash. The competition is open to everybody.
