Feel free to contact me about those neighborhoods - [EMAIL PROTECTED] or 612-436-4371. We appreciate your tips on news, crime, business openings or closings, neighborhood activities, interesting people, and pretty much anything you or your neighbors think is worth discussing at a city, community or neighborhood level. The Journal has long been a great community paper and we appreciate the community's help making it better. Please pass this info on to anyone else in your sphere of influence who might benefit from it.
