Please Support Kensington Bridge!

While many of us would like the City to assume responsibility for maintaining local public open spaces, it’s unlikely that this will happen within the next year for the Kensington Bridge Project.  Our neighbor Carol Dimmick continues to work with our elected officials to find a funding source for some of these projects and is asking us to consider making a generous donation to the Kensington Bridge Project. 

Terra Landscaping provides valuable maintenance for Kensington, and donations are desperately needed to ensure this continues. Your donations will ensure the planted areas on both sides of Kensington Bridge remain healthy and the sidewalks and span are swept and cleared of debris.

If you agree this project adds value to our community, now is the time to make a donation. If you have any questions, please email Carol or call her at the number below. Thank you!!

Bike Fix-It & Repair Clinic – November 15, 2025

The West Portal Branch of the San Francisco Public Library is hosting the following event in partnership with Bay Area BikeMobile:

Bike Fix-It & Repair Clinic

Location: West Portal Branch Front Courtyard

Date & Time: November 15, 2025, from 11:00 am – 1:00 pm.

Repair bikes with Bay Area BikeMobile. The BikeMobile will provide free tune-ups, repairs and will fix flat tires, adjust brakes and gears. They will even replace broken or worn-out parts like chains, seats and tires. The only thing it can’t do is replace missing wheels or gears. Best of all: While the mechanics work on your bike they’ll explain how you can keep it running smoothly.

Bike or no bike, everyone is welcome to attend to learn about maintenance, safety and more. Space limited. Seats available first come, first served. One bike per person.
