Greetings!
For those that say that there isn't much to do in a small community, they haven't experienced Winona yet! Looking for an activity? Take your pick. From 5k's to Mud Runs to Bike Tours, there is something for everyone. Join in the action by signing up for an event, or give back by volunteering. Looking for something else? Try taking in the local music scene while basking in our beautiful scenery or apply to be a part of the Blandin Leadership training.

Making a Difference award:
National Night Out
Winona's National Night Out is designed to heighten crime and drug prevention awareness, generate support for local anti-crime programs, strengthen neighborhood spirit, build police-community partnerships, and send a message to criminals that Winona's neighborhoods are organized and will not tolerate criminal behavior. Target has been an excellent corporate sponsor of the annual event. With the help of the Winona Police Department, Target, and other community partners and neighbors, Winona held two NNO celebrations this year, at East End Rec and Maplewood Apartments. We would like to thank everyone that came out that night, and especially everyone that helped make it a success!
