About Navarino:
Navarino offers a walkable neighborhood with sidewalks and tree-lined streets. Many of the streets have Linden trees which bloom in mid-June and fill the air with a clean citrus-smelling aroma. There is easy access to the area's recreational trails popular during the warmer months. Navarino offers some of the best home values in the Green Bay Area. Navarino is an older neighborhood that is in transistion with apartment houses being converted back to single-family dwellings. There are also many vacant lots that are ready for building new homes on. Many of these lots are owned by the Green Bay Redevelopment Authority and are available for purchase through the New Homes in Your Neighborhood Program.Whitney Park Arts & Crafts Fair
Call For Artists and Crafters
Navarino Neighborhood Association is working to organize an Arts & Crafts Fair series on Saturdays from 8 AM to 12 PM in Whitney Park during the Summer of 2011. Whitney Park is located at 800 Main St, just one block East of the Downtown Farmers' Market. That's two markets within walking distance of each other. We are currently asking local artists and crafters to become part what may become another Green Bay tradition.
Whitney Park is the location of the first Farmers' Market in Green Bay in 1917. For more information follow this link.
If you would like to be a vendor at the fair, register by calling the NNA voicemail at 920-345-6282 and leave your contact details and we will return your call.

Literacy Green Bay
Literacy Green Bay has been improving lives through literacy for 28 years! We offer programs centered around the advancement of literacy -- an individual's ability to read, write and speak English.
Most learners enter our program because they want to get a better job/promotion, read to their children, help their children with homework, or get a GED/HSED or a technical certificate.
About 10 percent of our learners are seeking basic skills. Almost 100% of our learners are from low-income families.
Literacy Green Bay offers free English as a Second Language (ESL) classes to adults and children. They are located at: 424 S. Monroe Ave., Green Bay, WI. For more information about ESL and other literacy classes visit their website by clicking on the image.
