Thanks to The North 40 Tavern for their support. A north woods tavern somewhere in the middle of a big city. They regularly rotate tap beers, so stop in to see what’s currently flowing.
Night to Unite gatherings across the metro were highlighted by the Star Tribune, including one celebration in West St. Paul. Hosted by Morgan and Nicole Kavanaugh, their event in Ward 3 included a bounce house and cotton candy.
Resident Mary Ellen Storms, 93, moved into her new home in 1960 and still lives in it. She said the area is “wonderful, always has been,” and shared stories about when the end of the street was still a farm.

That wasn’t the only gathering in West St. Paul of course, as about 50 groups officially registered with the city to host an event. The city’s first responders and elected officials were busy trying to stop at as many of the parties as they could.
“We did our best to get to the more than 21 parties happening in Ward 3 in under three hours and managed to get to about half! It’s almost like I feel the need to rush around and fill up on this community love and connection we get to see on display all in one night. New neighbors and lifelong friends grilling and sharing food, kids with full reign of blocked off streets, it’s really inspiring to see.”
West St. Paul City Council Member Lisa Eng-Sarne
