Congratulations to our Good Neighbors

 Ryan Cassens, Jim Trautman
Congratulations to our October Good Neighbor Award recipients, Jeff Rutowski and Jim Trautman. Jeff Rutowski is the owner of Kenmore Prescription Center, located at 2818 Delaware Ave. Jeff has graciously allowed the KVIS to store many of the season decorations we use throughout the year in the Village, at his building. Before we were able to store the decorations there, we had them stuffed in members garages and attics throughout Kenmore. It has been such a blessing to have the decorations centrally located together.

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 our quality of life better or worse. That's why the KVIS is organizing block clubs -to help ensure that the good things happening on your block are celebrated and the things that aren't so good are given the attention they need. If you are interested in helping make sure that your neck of the woods is as good as it can be, then we encourage you to consider becoming a Block Representative. Our goal is to have each of the 143 blocks in the Village be represented as a part of the Kenmore Village Block Club Committee.
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 sometimes. So we set about finding out what the most common complaints are between neighbors and what makes for a really great neighbor. We created our Good Neighbor Guide as a way to help us all know what the basic guidelines are for creating a fair and peaceful co-existence. We also created the Good Neighbor Award to acknowledge and honor those whose goodness goes above and beyond. Kenmore is filled with good neighbors, so most of us likely know of someone who is deserving of this Award. Click below for the Good Neighbor Guide brochure and nomination form.
