Come to downtown Kingsburg for another great year on the main streets of our Swedish Village. |
As we work our way into Spring and Summer, now is the time to be thinking about making your park reservations for those weekend get-togethers.
With eight parks located throughout the City, residents can find a place for a picnic, baseball game, or summer grill-out.
Have you used our parks in the past? Anything missing? We need your feedback! Take a quick 6 question anonymous survey that will let us know what you'd like to see in your park.

Don't forget - this Sunday, March 9 is the start of daylight savings time. Remember to "spring ahead" one full hour. The changing of the clocks is also the time to change your batteries in your smoke detector.

Take a look at one of the newest additions to downtown Kingsburg. Located on the side of the Stockholm Bakery & Cafe, visitors will be able to locate several places to see throughout the City.
