Join us for an autumnal pizza party on Saturday as your afternoon activities wind-down! We will have a selection of slices for you to sample; feel free to pack your own reusable plate, utensils, AND beverage, or we will have compostable wear on site for those that need it. Seating is limited so feel free to bring a picnic blanket or folding chair too!
Kingfield community pizza events operate on a donation basis, with a suggested contribution of $10 per person to help offset the cost of lighting the oven and purchasing ingredients. Children are welcome accompanied by an adult.
Also: consider raising a loaf of bread dough later that evening at your home and coming back on Sunday morning to see how the oven performs at a cooler temp! The open bread-baking will occur between 9-11 AM Sunday Sept 16, as space allows! See details on the bread bake here.

Currently the City Charter holds the power over the amount and locations for liquor licensing within Minneapolis, not the City Council. This Vote, if approved by 55% of the voting population, would strike all references in the City Charter relating to the area and spacing restrictions pertaining to the sale of liquor.
The transmittal letter from the Charter Commission (which can be found here: https://lims.minneapolismn.gov/File/2018-00753 ) shows the recommended Charter strike out language, Â and the votes. The official wording on the ballot will state:
“Shall the Minneapolis City Charter be amended to remove from the City charter the area and spacing requirements pertaining to liquor licenses? Yes or Noâ€
Liquor area and spacing restrictions – by referendum [Minn. Stat. § 410.12, subd. 1]
See Legislative File No. 2018-00753
Come learn about this issue from two local, small-business owners that support the amendment.
Lakewood Cemetery invites the public to its fourth annual Lantern Lighting Celebration. This family-friendly event offers an opportunity for people to celebrate the lives of deceased loved ones by decorating a floating lantern in their memory. At dusk, in a beautiful ceremony, attendees gather to release their candlelit lanterns onto Lakewood’s eight-acre lake, while the names of loved ones are read aloud.
Since its inception in 2015, the event has grown through strong community support — from 400 people in its first year to more than 1,500 in 2017.  Visit Facebook to watch a short video from last year’s event to see what it means to people to participate in this event.
Throughout the event, guests can enjoy live music, food and refreshments from food vendors, the beauty of Lakewood’s scenic grounds, and take self-guided tours of the cemetery via Lakewood’s mobile app.
Tickets are available at https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/3459518. Cost is $5 and covers the use of one lantern and the art supplies to decorate it.
