Please mark your calendars for MHNA’s 2022 membership meetings! MHNA meets on the third Thursday of January, April, July, and October. Unless otherwise noted, the meetings begin at 6:30 p.m. and are held at the Northwest Community Center, 5110 Franklin Ave. Here is a rundown of our 2022 meeting dates:
What’s better than being able to meet in person for the first time in over a year? There will be food! Please make plans to join MHNA at 6 p.m. on Thursday, October 21 for our quarterly meeting and annual supper at the Northwest Community Center, 5110 Franklin Ave.
Please note that the Northwest Community Center requires visitors to wear masks due to the pandemic, though masks may be removed while people eat.
If you would like to bring a soup, side, or dessert, please call or text April (Beck) Wyss at (515) 707-6386. We’re also going to try a recipe swap this year. If you have a recipe you would like to share with neighbors, please bring a minimum of 10-15 copies.
The meeting portion will begin at 6:30 p.m. and feature neighborhood news, public safety updates, and a city update from Ward 1 City Councilman Bill Gray. Candidates for local offices in the November election will also be allowed 2-3 minutes to introduce themselves. Barring technological difficulties, we will try to livestream the meeting on the MHNA Facebook page for those who cannot attend in person.
We will also have public safety updates and neighborhood news.
Please mark your calendars and tell your neighbors!
Spring will be here before we know it . . . hopefully. 🙂 While you’re looking ahead to spring, please pencil us in on your calendar for MHNA’s next meeting at 6:30 p.m. on April 15.
Thereafter, we plan to meet on July 15, and October 21.
We anticipate holding online meetings until things improve with the pandemic. Please make sure we have your email address so we can keep you updated. Online meeting invites are sent to active members and we also livestream on our Facebook page, which can be found at: www.facebook.com/MerleHayNeighborhood.
Once we are able to safely resume in-person meetings, we plan to gather at the Northwest Community Center, 5110 Franklin Ave.

MHNA will host its next quarterly meeting on the Zoom platform at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday October 15. Please make sure your membership dues are current and we have a current email address for you so we can send you the Zoom meeting credentials.
We expect to be joined by Ward I City Councilman Bill Gray, who will share updates on city issues in our neighborhood and elsewhere in northwest Des Moines. We are also trying to line up a forester to share information and field questions about tree care and planting in the aftermath of the derecho that ripped through Iowa in August and destroyed thousands of trees.
We also expect to have public safety updates from our Neighborhood Based Service Delivery officer, along with a host of other neighborhood updates.
Please mark your calendars and join us via Zoom on October 15! We plan to live-stream the meeting on the neighborhood Facebook page: www.facebook.com/MerleHayNeighborhood.
