Krystin Eldridge, Vice Chair

I’m Krystin Eldridge, I’ve lived in Webber Camden for 6 years now. I love everything about the urban landscape and the people in it. I am a strong advocate of stable neighbors and stable neighborhoods. I would like to see Webber Camden increase its support of affordable housing and foster connections with each other in the community.

I have experience working with boards and helping to update their websites, maintain memberships, and helping to manage their events.

I am a grad school candidate at various universities for the urban development programs and I hope to continue to be involved and be in Webber Camden for a long time.

Get involved! Showing up is the first step.

At-Large Directors

The At-Large Directors are the elected members of the WCNO Board of Directors who are not officers in the organization.

Monica Colberg

Monica Colberg is entering her second term with WCNO. In the first two years as At-Large member on the Board of Directors, Monica and fellow member Sheree Breedlove teamed together to provide over 500 free facemasks for WCNO residents, developed community through gardening projects at Hamilton Manor, and held tabling events to increase participation in Census 2020 and absence ballot voting. Monica also assisted in building the foundation for the newly restructured WCNO.

In her next two-year term Monica will focus on building new block clubs and strengthening current block clubs in WCNO. She believes every single block organized as a block club is the strongest connection that WCNO can support in building community. Imagine a whole community of WCNO residents connected to their neighbors, be they renters or homeowners. Imagine the creative ideas that WCNO can support with community input. Monica is lead gardener for the community Triangle Garden at 42nd and Humboldt Ave N. Monica was a member of the Holiday on 44th committee for 10 years. She knows the power of a dedicated volunteer work group tackling a common goal with astounding success.

Maria Ahlgren

Hi, I’m Maria! I have lived in Webber-Camden for 3 years and have worked at Henry High School just as long. I have learned so much from our students and I look forward to bringing this experience and their voices to the WCNO. I have a 6 yr old son, Jeremiah, who goes to Lucy Laney and is a member at Jerry Gamble. He’s another huge motivator, helper and believer in community. In my free time, I really enjoy naps, attending athletic events at Henry, camping, cooking and hanging out with my son. Every day, I become more proud to live and work in this neighborhood. I look forward to getting to know eachother and working together, as neighbors should
