Franco's Pizza Children's Concert Series
Many thanks to everyone who helped make our 2017 Children's Concert Series such a fun and delightful time! We had spectacular weather and were able to have all the concerts outdoors -this has only happened one other time in the eight years we've been having the Series. If you are interested in helping plan the 2018 Series, please let us know as planning starts soon. |
Become a 2017 Bloom Scout
Many thanks to everyone who helped make our 2017 Kenmore in Bloom such a great success. It takes many people to help Bloom almost 500 places each summer and this year we had the most people volunteering to be Bloom Scouts yet! A big thank you to them and everyone who works so diligently to help bring beauty to Kenmore in this way. If you would like to be a 2018 Bloom Scout or would like to help plan next years Bloom, please call or send an email with your contact information. |

Become a Block Representative!
Let's face it: we care about the big things in life, but it is often those things closest to us that can make the quality of life better or worse. If you're a person who cares about the block you live on in Kenmore, we encourage you to consider becoming a Block Representative. The goal of the Kenmore Block Club Committee is to have each of the 143 blocks in the Village have a Block Club and be represented on the Committee.
Through our Northtown Subaru Dog Days of Kenmore event, the KVIS has learned that the devoted people who participate in dog rescue groups are truly unsung heroes. The WNY Canine Rescue Award banquet is our way of bringing light to the work done by these groups with each rescue group invited and attending receiving an award to acknowledge and praise their work in our community.

Are You a Good Neighbor?
When the KVIS first started, we heard from many people who would sigh and say, "It seems like some people just don't know how to be a good neighbor." We realized that there may be some truth to that statement and set about finding out what the most common complaints are between neighbors and what makes for a really great neighbor. Download the Good Neighbor Guide, a brochure that can help everyone know how to be respectful of those we live near. You can also nominate your neighbor to receive an annual Good Neighbor Award!
