Bylaw Change - At the August 14 2006 meeting, KCA has voted to change the bylaws and creat a new class of membership for businesses. The dues for businesses is $25 per year, and each member business may designate one individual to vote on their behalf at meetings.

New Town Square forum - KCA now has a new forum, with greatly expanded features. Users must register by choosing a screen name and password, then they are allowed to post messages.

Among the many new features are:

• Users can upload photos and documents, and other files to share with other forum users.
• You can go back and edit your own messages.
• You can preview your message before posting it.
• Private messaging between users.
• You can have an email sent to let you know that someone has posted a message in a thread you are interested in.
• Individual user profiles, including your own avatar.
• Formatting (colors, fonts) of your message, adding links within your message, and smilies!
• Event Calendar

Across the top navigation bar, there is an FAQ which should answer many questions of how to use the new forum.

At the bottom is a link to the old forum, which still exists. This is for reference to old messages that have been posted.

2006 Home Depot Grant Approved! Our Home Depot Application for a community impact grant has been accepted and we have been offered a grant of $3000.00 to purchase tools and equipment for the monthly maintainence, community gardens and many other community related events. We'd like your ideas as to the locations in our community which you feel are in dire need of improvement. Pictures are always helpful! The KCA's thanks go out to Home Depot for their time, consideration and financial backing. They have put a good foot forward to help us do the same!

Call n Ride Service to Kittredge! Patience has been rewarded! We have made some progress in getting one after-school bus to come to this area. The main purpose is to transport students who participate in after-school activities home. We are trying to work out the details, but need to know how many kids will use this service and what the best time for pickup would be. We are focusing on middle school and high school somewhere between 4:30 and 5:15. For more information contact Brian at RTD at (303) 299-2155
