KFNA Board seeking three neighbors to fill open seats

By

At the April KFNA Annual Meeting and Election, five community members were seated on the board. Three additional seats remain open, however. KFNA is committed to being an equitable and inclusive organization that reflects the diversity and many identities in our neighborhood. KFNA is specifically encouraging those who have been historically underrepresented in neighborhood organizations to apply. This includes Renters, POCI,  LGBTQ+, Youth, or Seniors.

If you have any questions or are potentially interested in serving please contact KFNA Executive Director Sarah Linnes-Robinson at sarah@kingfield.org. Or complete and return a brief Interest Form (found below) to info@kingfield.org; KFNA is then inviting all interested individuals to the June KFNA meeting on 6/12/19 at 7 PM, MLK Park to introduce themselves to the board.

Building Bridges, on the 38th Street Bridge

By

Now that the 38th Street bridge has reopened over Interstate 35W, neighbors will gather for a sit-down dinner — on the bridge — on Thursday, Aug. 16.

The evening will feature live music, kid-friendly activities, dinner and conversation.

Volunteers at Eat for Equity have started preparing about 200 meals, with a menu loosely based on a southern heritage meal they’ve served at Bonnaroo in Tennessee. Dinner begins at 5:45 PM–there are no reservations and seating will be first come, first served.
