Grant Beach Neighborhood Association
The Grant Beach Neighborhood Association (GBNA) benefits the area within the boundaries of Boonville on the East, Kansas Expwy. on the West, the railroad tracks just North of Commercial street, and Chestnut Expwy. on the South, located in Springfield, Missouri.
We believe that people should actively participate as citizens in a democracy and as neighbors in in a community. We are a group of citizens interested in working together to maintain and improve the living quality of our neighborhood, motivate the city to address our concerns, be a spawning ground for neighborhood watch programs and build a sense of community among us. Working together, there is little that cannot be done, working apart there is little that can be done.
