Kiosk Update!

- Check out the new kiosk
(photos below) that's going up at the San Francisco
Bakery! Thanks to a City of Olympia Neighborhood
Matching Grant, we are building a lovely kiosk to
help handle community messages currently overloading
the bulletin boards at the bakery entrance.
HUGE thanks to Katie Cox,
neighborhood mom and architect, who rescued the lame
kiosk design I submitted with the grant application and
lifted the idea to an eye-catching piece of art. Katie
drafted neighborhood artist Rus Geh, who executed
Katie's design and created the metal art on the back
side of the kiosk. During October, we drafted husbands
and friends to plant the kiosk firmly in the bakery
gardens. Thank you, Brian Cox, Keith Spencer,
and Katie's visiting colleagues!
The last step in this process
will be to install cedar slats and the bulletin board
material. We will also dig a French drain to steer
runoff from the kiosk into the bakery gardens. Keep
watching!
