Doghouse Contest Entry Form
To celebrate Historic Kenwood’s new neighborhood dog park, the Historic Kenwood Neighborhood Association is holding a doghouse contest. Spend the dog days of summer building a new doghouse for your best friend. You can design and build it yourself, or design it and have someone else build it.
Prizes will be awarded to the weiners. Each of the homes on the BungalowFest tour will feature one of the winning doghouses. All of the remaining doghouses are invited to be on display in Seminole Park during BungalowFest on Saturday, November 7th. A special panel of judges will examine the houses and determine the “top dogs”.
The entry fee is only $10, which includes a custom handmade plaque for your doghouse. Entry forms are available at Craftsman House Gallery, and on the HK website. The contest is limited to residents of Historic Kenwood. All doghouses must be completed, with photos and descriptions submitted to the judges by September 1st.

Historic Kenwood is located just west of downtown St. Petersburg and is one of a handful of our city's 109 neighborhoods listed on the
National Register of Historic Places.
Home to more than 2500 residents living in over 1100 single family homes, the neighborhood has one of the highest concentrations of bungalows in Florida. Many of the homes date from the 1920s, when the Arts and Crafts movement had reached its zenith in cities as diverse as San Diego, Denver, Chicago, and, of course, St. Petersburg.
Historic Kenwood’s architectural charm is not the only feature that makes our neighborhood such a special place. Our active Neighborhood Association raises funds for civic projects of all kinds, lobbies on behalf of historic preservation issues and generates money for a number of charitable needs. Among our civic accomplishments and neighborhood activities are:
Our beautiful Pavilion in Seminole Park (3rd Ave. North and 29th Street, Pictured above) was built with the dedicated work of HKNA's members - an impressive membership that continues to grow!
BungalowFest, an annual tour of homes celebrating the architectural richness of our community, Held the first Saturday in November, this is our main fundraiser for the year. Funds generated here help us support charitable activities and pay for neighborhood improvements, such as our custom street signs and corner plantings.
Easter Egg Hunt. Held the Saturday before Easter Sunday, neighborhood volunteers decorate the park and hide LOADs of surprise-filled plastic eggs for neighborhood kids to find. The HKNA Bunny presides over the festivities.
Art in the Park. New in 2007, this invitation-only art festival was a huge hit with shoppers and artists alike. For more information on the next Art in the Park, scheduled for March 14, 2009, please click here .
We're always seeking volunteers who can bring fresh ideas and good energy. Our meetings are held at 6:30 p.m. on the 1st Thursday of every month at The Hospice of the Florida Sun Coast, located at 3050 1st Ave. South (that's the SE corner of 31st St. and 1st Ave. S). Come get involved!
