They made the Como Park Honor Roll

In December and January, we accepted nominations for the 2022 Como Neighborhood Honor Roll, our board members voted to select honorees among the nominations, and the winners were honored at a recent board meeting.
Congratulations to 2022 Honorees Carol and Jim Kmiecik, Molly O’Rourke and Judy Johnson of the Midway Parkway Garden Club, and Reene Jacobsen and Sandy Simpson, garden stewards of the Midway/Arona garden.
The Honor Roll is an annual tribute that recognizes everyday residents and organizations who make a sustained and lasting impact in their neighborhood. The city has paused it’s official support of the honor roll program, but it’s important that we continue to celebrate our outstanding community members, whose names will be added to the permanent plaque in the D10 office. You can see more about the 2022 Honorees, as well as our record of past honorees, here: District10ComoPark.org/HonorRoll
