Kingfield PorchFest Registration Opens Today, May Day 2019!

By

June 20, 6-9 PM at a local porch near you!

For anyone new to the neighborhood or has been asleep the past few years and is wondering, “What the heck is PorchFest?” PorchFest is an evening of community all wrapped up in the sounds of summer. On this single summer evening, Kingfield musicians will perform acoustic music outdoors at their respective homes, or at neighbor’s porch or yard, while others stroll through the neighborhood, enjoying the sounds. This event regularly features over 50 musical performances on about 3 dozen Kingfield stages.

Got a band? Follow the link and register to play! Have a nice wide front porch or a flat front yard? Follow the kink and sign up as a potential host!

Have questions? Just contact KFNA Executive Director Sarah Linnes-Robinson at sarah@kingfield.org.

KFNA Annual Meeting & Pizza Party 4|27|19, 4-6 PM at the Kingfield Outdoor Oven

Welcome Spring and elect a new Board of Directors to your neighborhood nonprofit, the Kingfield Neighborhood Association (KFNA,) at the Outdoor Oven! Pizza, annual organizational report, introduction of current volunteers, great community conversation, and more! Children welcome—plan to join us!

As we get excited to welcome new KFNA Board members, let’s not to forget to honor those who are staying at the helm! Drum roll for Scott Mueller who is in the middle of his 4th term as a KFNA Board Director! Scott’s a communications guy and you can always count on him to tell you exactly how to connect to KFNA on Facebook, but at heart he is a DJ which is why the sound system is in his starter pack. He is also an avid Brewers fan, as well as a fan of partnering the consumption of brewed beverages with local trivia!

Scott loves bringing people together, so it’s no surprise that the effort he’s most proud of in his work with the Kingfield Neighborhood Association is the annual KFNA Polling Party held on Election Day at MLK Park.

We are excited for new leadership, but thankful for those continuing their terms on the Kingfield Neighborhood Association board and super happy that Lisa Skrzeczkoski-Bzdusek has another year to serve!

As a public defender during the day Lisa stands up for the under-represented, and in her work with KFNA she likes to plan fun family activities that engage kids of all ages. She has been a leader of the both the Family Engagement Team and their First Saturday events as well as the MLK 4-H Council (hence a double meaning of the scales in her starter pack, balancing her career and her home life, as well as her volunteer commitments!)

Originally from Wisconsin, she also likes hiking, skiing, and swimming and has swam the Point La Point multiple times, be sure to ask her about open water swims in 60 degree water. She also enjoys good ol’ fashioned paperbacks with happy endings, hence Princess Bride in her starter pack. What’s a more feel good novel than that?!
