SPENCER BUTTE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION

WELCOME TO THE

NEIGHBORHOOD

Established in 1954, Spencer Butte Neighborhood Association’s mission is to ensure our neighbors connected and informed.

ABOUT THE SBNA

The Spencer Butte Neighborhood Association (SBNA) was formed in 1954 as a way to keep neighbors connected and informed of things happening in our rural setting. Our organization has gone through many transformations over the years. In its present state, the SBNA maintains itself as a social organization along with community education and awareness, as it strives to keep neighbors connected and informed about local issues and concerns.

SBNA is made up of a diverse, interesting, and active group of neighbors. We have a local board that represents the neighbors and their concerns. We host an annual meeting and different social events throughout the year; wine tastings, picnics, and garden walks. All activities are created by the interests expressed by our neighbors.
