If you missed us at The Lowbrow last night, there is still another chance to learn more about KFNA!  Thanks to the neighbors that attended!
KFNA Board Informal Coffee Hour, 3-4:30 PM, Wednesday January 14, Butter Bakery Café
Kingfield Neighborhood Association Board Members will host another informal (yet informational!) session about being a part of KFNA. Come with your questions about the workload and responsibilities of serving as part of this 13 member, volunteer, non-profit board of directors. Also come with you ideas for increasing community involvement and tackling community issues! Yes, there is some work involved in being part of the board, but the payoff in meeting new neighbors and working to improve your immediate community is huge! Please join board member Dan Swenson-Klatt and Project Organizer Cheryl DeGroff for coffee and to learn more about getting involved in the Kingfield Neighborhood Association!
