Northeast on Parade

July 09, 2008

The Holland Neighborhood Improvement Association marches in the Celebrate Northeast Parade. Members of the neighborhood group talk about their involvement in this segment of a show produced by the Minneapolis Television Network (mtn.org) for the Neighborhood Revitalization Program (NRP).
