Room-sized front porches bring living and the
neighbors outside. You run into neighbors walking to the
avenue to run an errand or eat a meal. Neighbors on
Kenyon get together as a group
about once a month. Twice a month the gardeners gather to
share info and plants. When an issue is hot, the e-mails
fly!

West
End Tags 
June 21 2008
For 2008, the West End Civic Association sponsored
a neighborhood-wide tag sale on June 21, 2008.
Some of the proceeds were donated to local education, public
safety and food pantries. Join us again next year for our
block-buster tag sale.
Rain or Shine! Loads of houses all with treasures you
can't miss. Our goal: to expand beyond our
borders!
Last year's event was a success - despite the threat of pouring rain!
Turns out our wide front porches are perfect for tag sales.
Fourteen houses on Kenyon turned unneeded treasures into cash,
and buyers loved walking from house to house on one block.
For the latest details on this year's tag sale and photos of
our first event, click on Tag
Sale.
On Earth Day- April 22, 2006 over thirty neighbors
and friends came out to plant 25 trees on Kenyon
Street. We have new lovely maple, cherry,
crabapple, Ginkgo and Katsura trees gracing Kenyon's
first block,
thanks to Doug and the Knox Parks
Foundation and their program: Trees
for Hartford Neighborhoods!
