Join us for the annual Mendota Heights Halloween Bonfire! Residents are encouraged to park on surrounding streets, and not in the Mendota Plaza parking lot.

The City thanks Paster Properties for the use of the bonfire site again this year!
Another successful Halloween Bonfire. Thank you to everyone who attended.
