Neighborhood Activities

Residents of Kingsley and their families enjoy four city organized and funded activities throughout the year. It’s a great way to meet your neighbors and have some fun.

Egg Hunt

The annual Kingsley Easter Egg Hunt is held on the Saturday before Easter Sunday. It’s a Kingsley tradition that is much enjoyed by all the youngsters, and now we have started partnering with Strathmoor Village to share the fun. Children gather at Kingsley Green and await the Mayors’ official start of the hunt. There are picture taking opportunities with the Easter Bunny, and most kids cart home a good supply of candy-filled eggs.

Yard Sale

Kingsley’s annual yard sale is a great opportunity to purge basements and closets of unwanted items. It’s also a great opportunity to stroll the neighborhood and meet your neighbors. You might just find a bargain on something you didn’t even know you needed! If it turns out that you really didn’t need it, what the heck, you can put it back out in next year’s yard sale. The city-wide sale is always held on the first Saturday in June.  For 2022, that date is June 4th.

We hope to see you and your stuff June 4th.

Picnic

Kingsley’s annual Picnic in the Park celebration is held on the second Sunday of September. We had a great turn out in 2019 between Kingsley and Strathmoor Village residents. Kids kicked soccer balls around Kingsley Green and climbed inside a decommissioned police helicopter.  Sadly, we had to cancel the picnic in both 2020 and 2021.

Put this on your calendar to come meet and greet neighbors and share a meal provided by the cities. Bring the kids, the grandkids, a healthy appetite, and all the good weather you can muster.

ACK!!!!  There will be no annual picnic for 2022 due to rain.  Forecasts as of September 8th show an 80% chance of rain for Sunday September 11th, with a 40% chance the Saturday before.  We’re sorry, but Kingsley Green Park will be much too mushy for a picnic.

Halloween Parade

The annual Halloween Parade, held on the Saturday or Sunday (depending on the weather) preceding Halloween, is another family-favorite activity, and another opportunity to share with Strathmoor Village. The parade route, which starts at Kingsley Green, is only several blocks long and is easy on the legs of the young and not so young. Police cars are at the front and rear of the group, and candy is distributed at the conclusion of the parade.
