Woodshed Build at the Kingfield Outdoor Oven
A Boy Scouts of America Eagle Project
Hello, I am a Boy Scout working on my Eagle Scout project in your neighborhood. I am in need of volunteers to help construct a woodshed for the Kingfield outdoor bread oven.
Our first date to set up the foundation went swimmingly thanks to the volunteers who attended. The next step requires more volunteers so… if you are available on the 23rd of September please contact me and come help to construct this woodshed. We will be building most of the day, so please feel free to stop in for an hour or two. If you let me know in advance when you are coming I can plan the workload better.
If you would like to get more details or would like to be added to the volunteer email list, email .

Nicollet Open Streets!
Roll and rock down Nicollet Avenue Sunday, September 24th: from Kmart to 46th Street, between 11 AM and 5 PM for a two-mile celebration of our main street, with activities, music, food, and more!Â
Join this event page to get daily updates on music line-ups, specials happenings, and other event details!
Organized and hosted by the neighborhood partnership of Lyndale Neighborhood Association (LNA), Kingfield Neighborhood Association, and the Whittier Alliance Nicollet Open Streets has grown into our largest annual festival. Last year this event brought out more than 100 businesses and nonprofit organizations and over 15,000 people.
To get ready for this year we have been working for months with Our Streets Minneapolis, as well as with local businesses and nonprofits, to bring the best of our neighborhoods to you. Although the event may be getting bigger each year, we seek to continue local involvement, so you will see many of your favorite local community partners along the route.
So, pump up your tires or put on your walking shoes (or maybe your dancing shoes?), as the street will be closed to motorized transportation, to see what’s great about our neighborhoods from a totally different perspective.
