The Pancake Breakfast in canceled for Saturday but as of now we are still planning on lighting the fire and boiling sap with limited volunteer participation, specific day, location, and time TBD. If you have collected sap that needs to be boiled down we are happy to collect your sap, and share the harvest. Just contact . We will let you know where the fire will be so you can walk by and observe in small groups, if you would like.
Community members can sample the fresh bounty of maple syrup from our Kingfield Community Sap Tap at a March 21st breakfast at MLK Park! Come talk to the sap harvesters outdoors and watch the sap boil, and then move indoors to enjoy a pancake breakfast in the MLK Rec Center gymnasium. Breakfast will include pancakes, fruit, juice, and coffee. Play equipment for toddlers will be available from 10-11:30 AM on the other half of the gym.
Breakfast will be a donation of $7 per adult and $3 per child. This fundraiser will benefit both KFNA and MLK Park, with donations supporting this project, and other similar programs, that both groups organize. More information on Facebook.
We are seeking volunteers to assist with dining area set-up and clean-up, as well as pancake flipping and food service. Register here to help out and meet other fun neighbors! https://
Please join Kingfield Neighborhood Association on Super Tuesday, 3 March for a Returns Watching Party! We’ll be celebrating our awesome voter turnout at MLK Park and the TVs will be turned to national networks to watch the presidential nominee returns of 15 jurisdicitons.
Even better, if you tell your server you’re there to support Get Out The Vote, Harriet’s Inn will donate 15% of your tab to KFNA. KFNA spent thousands of dollars on the We Are Kingfield / We Vote At MLK Park yard signs and posters and our GOTV efforts, and you can help us pay for them!
Come raise a glass and celebrate democracy with your fellow neighbors! Share the event with them here.
Minnesota has changed how we nominate major party presidential candidates, and Kingfield will do so as part of Super Tuesday all day at MLK Park at 4055 Nicollet Avenue South. If you’ve voted in the last decade in Kingfield, hopefully you’ve seen our polling party tents on the park grounds. All Kingfield residents are invited . . . join the party, and have free coffee or tea and a bite to eat with us! Get more information here!
Look for our tents around the park building–if the weather is chill we will have the fire pits blazing!
You’ll also have an opportunity to learn more about becoming a volunteer KFNA Board Director, and find out about candidates already pledging for your support in electing them to the KFNA Board later in March.
New for 2020: we care about your safety and will have volunteer crossing guards stationed at the south tent at 41st Street to help you safely cross Nicollet Avenue.
This party will be fueled all day by our local restaurants and cafes and dozens of your volunteering neighbors, so stop by before and after you vote including coffee provided by Royal Grounds Coffee, Five Watt Coffee, and cookies from Curran’s Restaurant (and lots and lots of fabulours home bakers too!
