In this episode:

We’re talking everything from big celebrations to small improvements that make a big impact.

Mayor Ralph along with Gwen Allen Carston from the Kent Black Action Commission raise the Juneteenth flag and there's an upcoming celebration at Morrill Meadows Park this weekend! 

🎓Shoutout to our 2025 grads

🍎We take a quick look at what’s buzzing in tech (hello, iOS 26).

🍔We’ve got food news too—In-N-Out is headed to Washington, and Kent’s still wondering why it’s not on the PNW foodie list!

We also recap the start of our summer events like Kitty Hall, PawFest, and Drinks in the Driveway, plus a progress report on local construction and the city’s fiber internet expansion.

Stick around for a great interview with 🌱Margret Wagner from Kent Parks about the Green Kent program and how you can get involved in restoring our natural spaces. If you want to volunteer or reach out to Margret, click here!
