improvements for the common good and
general welfare of the community.

year in Beaverdale and this season was particularly
successful. Our SCRUB Day in May unloaded tons
of trash from the cars of hundreds of neighbors. In
one morning, we helped clean out garages, attics,
basements, and yards that otherwise might be a
blight to our beautiful neighborhood.
2016
frequently get asked how much tax money we get
from the city every year. I also get asked how many
paid staff we have. We actually rely on memberships,
donations, and volunteers. I add that not to get more
memberships and donations (although we won't
turn that away), but just to remind everyone that
all of our activities and events are 100% run by
volunteers and usually on a shoestring. With that in
mind, please be sure to thank our volunteers when
you see them at events and, even better, feel free
THE BNA OPERATES SOLELY ON THE HARD WORK OF
VOLUNTEERS, DONATIONS, AND MEMBERSHIP DUES. WE
DON'T RECEIVE TAX DOLLARS OR OPERATING FUNDS FROM
THE CITY, AND HAVE NO PAID STAFF MEMBERS. WE COUNT
ON THE KINDNESS AND GENEROSITY OF OUR NEIGHBORS!
JOIN US IN PLANNING BEAVERDALE'S YEAR-LONG
2017 CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION!
We followed it up with our Grass Seats Cinema
in June. More than 350 neighbors joined us to watch
"Star Wars: The Force Awakens." I had several people
ask me how Beaverdale landed what is probably the
most coveted movie from our Des Moines Parks and
Recreation Department. I think a lot of it had to do
with what we always do - we asked the neighbors for
their opinion on the issue. The dozens of neighbors
who voted for this movie on Facebook made it a
slam dunk decision for the city.
We also hosted the biggest Beaverdale Bluegrass
Festival yet. As a joint concert with our partners
in the Beaverdale Betterment Coalition, we were
amazed at the hundreds of neighbors who joined
us from all around the city. The food trucks were
a hit. The new, bigger location at Tower Park was a
hit. And the four musical acts were certainly a hit.
The event could not have happened without support
from the Polk County Board of Supervisors and, in
particular, our Supervisor Angela Connolly. Please
be sure to thank them next time you see any of them.
A lot of people wonder how we do all this. I
to volunteer yourself. In Beaverdale, there's always
more than enough work to go around.
All of these events and more will take on
an added dimension next year. As you may
have heard, it will be our 100th year since the
neighborhood meeting in 1917 that created
Beaverdale as we know it. In recognition of this,
we've created a Centennial Commission to start
planning for the festivities. We've met once and
discussed a public art piece, specific branding, a
major event, and many other ideas. If you'd like
to be involved in the planning process, we'd love
to have you join us.
If there's ever anything your Beaverdale
Neighborhood Association
can do for you, don't
hesitate to let me know at
seanbagniewski@outlook.com
or 515-556-9111.

FIRST EVER BEAVERDALE TOUR OF HOMES A BIG SUCCESS!
7 HOMES, 485 ATTENDEES, AND LOTS OF BEAVERDALE PRIDE
On June 11th, seven Beaverdale families generously opened
their residences to the public in the first BNA-sponsored Tour
of Homes event. These homes ranged in style from a 1½-story
stone Tudor, to several Craftsman-style variants, a 2-story
English Colonial, an Italian Renaissance-inspired home, and a
kitschy Mid-century Modern ranch. Each home reflected the
diverse tastes and experiences of its respective homeowners. It
was a truly special opportunity to explore some beautiful and
fascinating homes; guests picked up a number of renovation and
design ideas as well.
Despite a 105-degree heat index, over 485 people attended
the Tour of Homes event. Visitors came from all over Des
Moines, Ankeny, the western suburbs, and even some from
rural Iowa. Because of the great turnout, the BNA plans to host
this event again in June, 2018, with an all new slate of houses.
Anyone interested in putting his/her home on the tour, or helping
to plan the event, should contact Sasha Kamper by phone at
515-279-0410 or email at mikesashakamper1@msn.com. She
will reach out at a later date, once planning for the second
Beaverdale Tour of Homes begins in earnest.
The BNA wishes to
thank the homeowners for

when the BNA Beautification Committee will host its next BNA
Garden Walk. If you have interest in showcasing your garden on
the tour, contact Nancy Dunbar for more information (dunbar.

the Garden Walk and Tour of Homes events, with each event
occurring every-other year.

BEAVERDALE BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL A HUGE HIT!
1500+ PEOPLE ENJOYED THE FESTIVITIES
Over 1500 revelers enjoyed a
balmy evening of bluegrass and soul
music in Tower Park on Saturday,
July 23rd.
The BNA and BBC collaborated to produce the third annual
Beaverdale Bluegrass Festival, a free event that featured music by
regional acts Sans Souci and Bassel and the Supernaturals, as well as
Des Moines bands The Maytags and Mr. Baber's Neighbors.
The historic water tower was beautifully lit for the occasion,
and the undulating topography of the northeast corner of the
park created a natural amphitheater that was a perfect setting for
the large, buoyant crowd.
The event was put on with the generous support of Polk
County, as well as business sponsors Davis Insurance and Progressive
Insurance, Meylor Chiropractic, AIM Kitchen & Bath, Green Family
Flooring, Chef's Kitchen, the Better Business Bureau, Christopher's,
Back Country, and Cooney's Tavern. The Des Moines Parks &
Rec Board and Des Moines Water Works were indispensable to the
organizing of the event. Dozens of volunteers pitched in selling beer,
hanging banners, and hauling trash to make the event a success.
We would like to thank all of the volunteers and businesses,
as well as all of the attendees, for making this event a huge success.

BEAVERDALE FALL FESTIVAL
SEPTEMBER 16TH-17TH
We hope you have
reserved September
16-17 for this year’s
Fall Festival. We have
a lot of fun, food
and music for your
weekend enjoyment.
Everyone can start
now and cross their
fingers for no rain so
this year we can have
the car rally we missed
out on last year. The
children’s games were so popular that we’ve expanded the time
this year so they can enjoy all the activities we have in store for
them. Be sure to be along the Parade route so you can show your
appreciation to our Grand Marshal, Angela Connolly. She has
done so much to help us put this Festival on year after year. And
don’t forget the bands playing at several locations both nights,
joined by the open mic and teen dance on Saturday. Add to
all this the carnival, vendors, both food and nonfood, and you
know you must be there. So join us for the best – and only –
neighborhood Festival!

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT
CELEBRATING TEN YEARS OF GREAT READING AND WRITING
NEIGHBORHOOD BOOK STORE IS A BEAVERDALE FAVORITE
For the past ten years, readers in Des Moines have enjoyed visiting
this friendly, independent bookstore located in the heart of Beaverdale.
Owner Alice Meyer, who opened Beaverdale Books on July 8, 2006,
has weathered a challenging economy, the introduction of e-books,
two summers with major street detours, and the ever-changing buying
habits of readers. A long standing BNA Business member, she has also
been generous in helping the Beaverdale Neighborhood Association
by facilitating orders for our Beaverdale branded clothing, accessories,
and yard/garden signs, as well participating in the annual Beaverdale
Holiday Shop Hop as a Santa Stop and offering entertainment and
activities during other Beaverdale events like Fall Festival. Beyond
Beaverdale, Alice has also been active in the world of books; she
recently completed a 3-year term on the Advisory Council for the
Iowa Center for the Book and is currently on the Des Moines Public
Library's AViD Selection Committee.
Beaverdale Books isn't just a staple business in our neighborhood,
but also supports the local and state-wide writing community. As a
member of the American Booksellers Association and the Midwest
Independent Booksellers Association Beaverdale Books has a large
selection of books written by Indie authors, and frequently hosts
events featuring Iowa authors, story times and writing activities for
children, and specializes in Iowa Writers' Workshop authors, do-ityourself topics, and health and fitness. Alice said that even though
she can't compete with the selection you'll see at the big box stores,
she still offers titles from mass appeal authors like Stephen King and
James Patterson, as well as others that top current "best seller" lists.
She also special orders books for customers several times a week, and
notes that many of her patrons enjoy the nostalgic feel of shopping
at a small local bookstore.
Recently, Alice and her staff celebrated their 10-year anniversary
with an all-day event at the store and customers joined in celebrating
the books, reading, and storytelling that’s offered on a daily basis at
this little neighborhood treasure. The day started with fun story times
for children, and continued with refreshments and special offers and
discounts on purchases. Members of the Published Authors Liaison
were also on site for informal readings and book-signings.
Alice said the anniversary event was a big success and, most of
all, enjoyed seeing and talking with all of her customers throughout
the day. She absolutely loves being in Beaverdale and is looking
forward to the next 10 years.
"We had a great celebration on July 9 with hundreds of people
at the store, judging by how many tote bags and buttons and books
we gave away. We saw many "charter" customers and a lot of new
ones. So many people thanked us for being here - I can't imagine
being anywhere else but Beaverdale!" She said.
For more information, call 515-279-5400, stop by
Beaverdale Books, located at 2629 Beaver Avenue, Suite 1, or visit

VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT
NOMINATIONS FOR ANNUAL RODINE MICKLE DINNER EVENT
RECOGNIZING EXTRAORDINARY NEIGHBORS & VOLUNTEERS
As we discussed in the last issue of the Sidewalk,
the Beaverdale Neighborhood Association nominated
Chef's Kitchen for business of the year and longtime resident Eugene Buckmiller as the volunteer of
the year at the annual Rodine Mickle neighborhood
appreciation dinner hosted by Des Moines Neighbors.
To our surprise, Beaverdale won both categories out
of the more than fifty neighborhoods in the city of
Des Moines. Chef's Kitchen owners, Kristi and Steve
Little, were both on hand to accept the award. Eugene
Buckmiller and his wife, Donna, were not. Luckily,
Beaverdale president Sean Bagniewski also serves as
the president of Des Neighbors. He was able to call
Eugene's daughter, Terri, who was able to get him out
of his pajamas and to the awards ceremony just in the
nick of time. The more than 100 people in attendance
were just as thrilled with Eugene as we all are. We wish
both Chef's Kitchen and Eugene congratulations in
their well-deserved awards.
Would you like to have
your business featured
in one of our upcoming
"Business Spotlights?"

IT'S BEAVERDALE NOSTALGIA AT ITS BEST!
Bill Hubbell was a 1920's soft-drink dispenser with a
business where either Snookies Malt Shop or Players Bar and
Grill is currently located. His soda fountain was damaged by
cars six times, so he dug a trench and filled it with tree stumps
to barricade himself against future speeders.
"I don't bear any of the speeders any malice. I know that
none of them ever picked on me by choice. I tried to show
my good will by developing a reputation for being the fastest
ambulance scout in the city."
