Among the primary purposes of the Beloit NPA is to facilitate communication and information exchange. Additionally we’d like to welcome new neighbors to the neighborhood. With these in mind among the earliest ideas proposed when we first started getting together was to provide a form of “Welcome Wagon” for new neighbors.
We now have a Beloit NPA New Neighbor Welcome Pac.
In it we provide a range of useful information particularly for those living within the historic districts.
- - A welcome note from the BNPA.
- - A welcome note from the Landmarks Commission.
- - A copy of the city reminder about COA’s along with an application.
- - Historic Preservation – A guide for property owners. A great publication produced specifically for Beloit historic district residents.
- - College Park Historic Colors – A collection of colors, designed and created by Murmac Paint Co. in conjunction with Beloit College Park Historic District.
- - A page introducing the WI State Historic Home Owners Tax Credit program.
- - A copy of Old House Journal Magazine – The single best resource of it’s kind and a gift from us.
All this in addition to information from…
- - Visit Beloit
- - Friends of Riverfront
- - Downtown Merchants
- - City of Beloit
While there’s quite a bit here the expectation is not that anyone would try to read all this. More, it’s hoped that they’ll have it available for reference if and when needed. Additionally, presenting this affords a good excuse for a neighbor to knock on the door and introduce ourselves.
We’ve delivered several already as some new folks have moved in recently. If there’s a new home owner on your block let us know and we’ll get an NPA New Neighbor Welcome Pac to you.

I am the Membership VP for The Badger Chordhawks Barbershop Chorus, And I would like to include information in the Welcome Pac about our Chorus. How would I go about doing this? Thanks!
We’re not really taking individual entity promotional materials. What’s in there is either specific to old-house, historic district subjects or a couple more comprehensive things like something from Visit Beloit that in turn might include individual items such as your organization.
