The Kings Park Chamber of Commerce welcomes “Lindsey’s Groom Room” Dog Grooming Service to Kings Park.

 Lindsey’s explains that she has over ten years’ experience in dog grooming. In addition to full service dog grooming, they also offer self-service dog washing. “Some of the pets (and owners) may suffer from separation anxiety; For these families we supply the dog washing/drying area and all the items needed for them to give their family friend a good washing without messing up the home. ”

 In addition to being Kings Park’s newest business person, this lifelong Kings Park Resident is committed to providing pro-bono services to rescue dogs and pets in crisis.

Kings Park Day 2010

Kings Park Celebrated "Kings Park Day 2010" on 6/20/2010. A wonderful afternoon, great weather and old friends made this year's festival even more memorable than ever. Pictured above, George McKnight distributes old glory to all passers by. In addition to his patriotic duties, George used his office as an impromptu cool off satiation for festival guests, a welcomed rest for more that a few.

The entire Town of Kings Park came out for this traditional American Festival and our most sincere thanks to the Kings Park Chamber of Commerce, Charlie Gardner, Dee Grasso and the entire Kings Park Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors who made this day possible.
