South Kensington Makers & DoersKnowledge & Networking in SK!

As many of you know, last Thursday was our first South Kensington Makers & Doers event! Thanks to the efforts and contributions of people throughout South Kensington, the event was even more fun, interesting, and packed than we could have imagined. Over 50 representatives from local businesses and organizations attended SKM&D, and what an incredible group they were!

Here's a recap of the event, and some shots of the awesome people who made it possible.

We headed over to Oxford Mills to a beautiful sunset, a good start to SKCP's first small business networking event! Our friends at Oxford Mills were gracious enough to let us use one of their awesome conference rooms for the event.

The agenda for the night was set. We anxiously awaited our first visitors, who trickled in slowly at first. We were almost worried that our awesome spread, provided by Oxford Mills would go to waste, but then Tim from St. Benjamin Brewing arrived!

Along with a crowd of thirsty entrepreneurs and small business owners! More and more people came, and suddenly we had a big group of awesome, excited people waiting for Emily's introduction.

First up was Alfredo Aguilar of Las Cazuelas Restaurant, telling his fascinating story of how he made his way up from a line cook to owning and running a restaurant in South Kensington.

After Freddy's funny and engaging story, we held our lightning round of tips, with three speakers who all had special business development super powers.

First up was the always informative Michael Alles of Finanta with a quick round of tips on financing your business.

Then came Michelle Freeman of Witty Gritty, with fast and functional tips to improve your business' image and P.R. campaigns.

And last but not least, we had the inspiring Dominique Aubry of Impact HUB delivering wisdom on how to build and maintain an awesome and dynamic team.

After such a mind blowing volley of useful information, the group of thinkers, artists, makers, and doers retired to the back of the room to swap info, talk shop, and network. We're not sure yet how many new collaborations will come out of SKM&D, but we saw plenty of cards exchanged! The energy in the room was positively inspiring, and we're excited to have been the catalyst for such awesome community interaction.

For more information about how SKCP supports our neighborhood small businesses, entrepreneurs, and economy, check out our SK Works program!

We'd like to thank everybody who made SKM&D possible, including our vendors, speakers, and sponsors.

SKCP & Philly 311 in Action:More Positive Changes in SK!

A friendly South Kensington neighbor caught some great teamwork between SKCP and Philly 311 last week! Check out the crazy before & after progress that happened when two forces of positive change in the neighborhood get together.

The first location, before cleanup:

And the same exact place after 311 cleanup and painting!

Hard at work, again, the 311 team pulls off some impressive work on the other side of the neighborhood, too!

From awful to awesome in no time.

A huge thanks to our neighbor for documenting these cleanups, and to Philly 311 for working their magic in our part of town!

Don't forget, if you see a dirty lot, illegal dumping, or have other questions and/or concerns about the state of a lot or street near you, let us know! We will help connect you to 311 and make sure that they help you as quickly as possible. If you're on the go and don't have time to make the call, you can use the Philly 311 Mobile App!

Don't be afraid to pick up that phone and help keep South Kensington sparkly!

Fall Cleanup 2014:The Neighborhood TeamsWho Love to Clean!

Some of you may have heard about our cleanup on Saturday, October 18th. If you weren't able to come, we're sorry you had to miss all the fun! This cleanup was one of our most successful ever and not to mention a blast!

The morning started off at ReAnimator on 310 Master St. with free ReAnimator Coffee and Federal Donuts for everyone who participated in the event! What an awesome way to start a day of hard work! Everybody got into their teams and gathered tools for their own routes. Then they set off, with nothing more than their maps and their tools!

All our teams got right to work, setting off around our neighborhood and picking up leaves, trash, weeds, and other litter. They worked together and as individuals in their teams, and got a lot done! Below is just one corner trash pickup site out of six!

Though everybody put in so much effort, the cleanup wasn't all work! The mood was lighthearted and fun as everybody was showing off their "I love cleanups" faces!

After all that great work, we settled in Hart Park for a relaxing barbeque, with sandwiches provided by the brand new First Street Steaks!

All-in-all, the cleanup was a great success! We had 48 participants and collected a whopping 77 bags of trash!! It was a fun and rewarding experience, and we as a team are so happy to have shared it with our neighbors! We hope you will come back again and join us next time, or join us for the first time! If you're interested in starting your own cleanup, or helping SKCP out with another volunteer opportunity, please contact us!

Looking forward to next time,
The SKCP Team
