The City of Kent recently submitted an application to the League of American Bicyclists to renew its Bicycle Friendly Community (BFC) status. As part of the review process, the League is asking for your input about bicycling in the City of Kent through an online survey. This survey is open to anyone familiar with or interested in bicycling in the community. Whether you bike every day or on occasion, we encourage you to complete the survey. It only takes a few minutes to complete and will be open until Oct. 5, 2025. 

"I believe that every donation, no matter how small, helps make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. By giving to United Way, I know I’m contributing to the well-being of those who need it most here in Portage County. I’ve seen firsthand the incredible work being done, and I’ve spoken with the people whose lives are being changed because of these funds. The need is genuine, and the support truly makes a difference." - Judy Yasenosky, assistant director for chapter and volunteer programs.
