KML General Programs

“A Universe of Stories . . . to Remember.” That’s our theme for the summer program. We will celebrate our return “home” to Main Street with lots of baskets to give away!

Stomp Fundraiser

For the fifth year, the barn and grounds of the historic Phelps-Hatheway House & Gardens will be transformed into a Texas-style hoedown by the Stomp Out Cancer fundraiser on May 19. The fundraiser, locally referred to as Stomp, raises funds for non-profits that focus on cancer treatment and research. For a second year, the event will support Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF), which raises funds for childhood cancer research. The Stomp Planning Committee is excited to announce that Liz Smith, Alex’s mother, will be this year’s special guest. ALSF has recognized Stomp as one of their premier Grandstand events and identified it as a top fundraiser in 2018.
