Kennedy’s Summer Rec Program
This summer, Kennedy has the numbers for two baseballs
teams. The teams include “Small Fry”, grades K-2, and “Big Fry”,
grades 3-4. All other teams/age groups will play in Hallock.
Coach Jeff Keller will again be managing the program, couching
both teams and working with the kids. Practice and games will
take place at the Kennedy ball field. A travel game and tournament schedule, if any, has yet to be confirmed.
Coach Keller says, “Tentatively, practice will be twice a week,
at 8:00 a.m., beginning on Wednesday, June 1.” Additionally,
Keller says an effort will be made to schedule games
at least one evening per week.
Details will be made available once they’ve
been confirmed, however, participation cost
will be much the same as in years past. Any
questions may be directed to Coach Keller at
Kittson Central School.
The City of Kennedy is looking for donations and
fund raising efforts to finance this year’s summer rec program.
Checks may be made out and sent to the “City of Kennedy”. Fund
raising ideas may be brought to Mayor Todd Truedson.
Odds and ends…
The Kennedy Community Garden News
The Kennedy “Green Team” welcomes our new member and
summer volunteer, Rick Peterson. Rick has volunteered to
drive our water truck this summer. Thanks Rick!
We could still use a back-up driver, maybe for an occasional Friday
morning. Please keep us in mind...
KHS Alumni Association
Randy Swanberg, Sandy Lindgren, Rich Deere, Barry and Kristi Langen
have stepped forward to get the ball rolling on the formation of a KHS
Alumni Association. I’m sure they will continue to welcome anyone else
interested in working with them. Stay tuned for details.
Kennedy’s Upcoming 125th Birthday
Please consider bringing to the City Office any old photos you have of
Kennedy—main street, street lights, surrounding agriculture, store
fronts, landscapes, whatever. We will scan the photos and give them
back. The photos will be used in some way during Kennedy’s 125th
birthday celebration. Thanks to Lu Kiene, Goldie Johnson and Betty
Lindberg for the photos they’ve already provided.
