Thank you, Kennebunk Fire-Rescue, for hosting such a wonderful Open House yesterday! 🚒

Our Scholarship Coordinator Emily was there to help spread the word about KBIA's annual community swim lessons and the importance of teaching the next generation to swim. Living in a coastal community, we know that swimming is more than just a fun summer activity — it's a lifelong skill that can save lives. Helping children become confident, capable swimmers is one of the most important ways we can keep them safer in and around the water.

We're grateful for opportunities like this to connect with local families, share resources, and work together to keep our community safe — one swimmer at a time! 💙

TONIGHT! 🗓️ After successful meetings with both the Planning and Select Boards over the last few weeks, KBIA is now scheduled for Public Hearing at 6:30 PM Tuesday, Sept. 8, at Kennebunk Town Hall. Please get out to support us in the final step toward putting the necessary ordinance amendment on the ballot for Kennebunk voters this November, allowing us to re-build a new Smith House.

Public comments on the issue will be permitted so it’s important our voices be heard. Can;t make it? Please email the Select Board, c/o Bryan Laverriere, Town Manager at [email protected] and copy KBIA at [email protected]. Thank you.

And just like that, another KBIA summer is in the books. 💙

Thank you for filling KBIAland with laughter, friendship, courage, creativity, sandy feet, wet towels and so many moments we wish we could bottle up and keep forever.

As backpacks replace beach bags and everyone heads back to school, work and the routines of fall, we hope a little piece of this summer stays with you — the friendships made, the things you tried, the confidence you gained and the simple joy of being a kid by the sea.

Thank you for an unforgettable summer, KBIA. 💙 Until next year.

Our Songwriting Class takes the stage at our August Awards & Pizza Party with an original ode to one of KBIA’s greatest temptations: the Snack Shack! 🎶🍦🍭🍿 From candy and ice cream to all those can’t-resist treats, they captured the struggle perfectly.
