Kent cookie walk

For anyone else who participated in the kent cookie walk on Dec 8th 2024.

Standing Rock Cultural Arts had a table set up with some cookie snacks for anyone who stopped in that was separate from the cookie they were handing out for the walk.

There were chocolate chip and what looked like a jelly topped bar cookie cut into little strips. I don't know what they were exactly but I think they may have been cherry with almond shavings. Whatever they were they were delicious and I want more.

Does anyone know exactly what those were called or where to get a recipe? I have tried searching online but nothing I have found looks quite right.

Please help me find these amazingly good little snacks.

Phma voucher

I am not from Kent or Portage County. I have been searching for houses or apartments to use my voucher, but I have been unable to find any. Does anyone know of any apartment complexes or private landlords that accept vouchers?

Looking to move to Kent- looking for info on apartments!

I have three apartments on my list, and I was wondering if anyone knew anything about them! Some of the reviews are outdated. I’m looking at Lake Street, Indian Valley, and Woodland Pointe.

If you think I should look somewhere else, please let me know! My budget is 800-900$, I’m looking for a one bedroom, and I have a cat.

Just wanted to say thank you!

So I’m moving to Kent from Canada in 2 weeks - I had some packages delivered from Amazon on Friday night. I had asked Amazon to hide my packages on my porch, as maintenance wouldn’t be able to put the packages in my apartment until Monday. Sadly Amazon didn’t do what I had asked them to - so I was concerned about my packages being stolen..

Somehow my packages were left out ALL weekend, and maintenance was able to place the packages in my apartment this morning. I’m honestly in awe about this, as back home the packages would have easily been stolen.

Just wanted to say to the Kent community - thank you ❤️ this means a lot to me. From your Canadian friend

Local restaurant for Thanksgiving dinner?

Or as far as Akron or towards Cleveland, if you can recommend it? Vegan options a huge plus, but not required.

The Kent State hotel is open for breakfast until 10:30, if anyone wondered.

Silk Mill Apartments

Does anyone here know much about the apartments in the Silk Mill? Website is vague and I don't know anyone who lives there. Any information is very helpful. Website is super vague.

Place to get a suit?

Howdy, I have a sudden need to get a suit for an upcoming funeral.

Does anyone have any recommendations on where a good place to go would be? I’ve never had a suit before and don’t really know where to begin.

Thanks

KENT PSYCH ROCK!!!! (again)

Hi everyone it’s your friendly neighborhood psych-rocker here ! My band Inpatient has just released our single “Open Hand” and is available to stream everywhere now! We are a three piece band with wildly varying musical backgrounds but we all come together for the love of rock and trippy music of all walks of life. We’re based out of Kent/Akron. We pull from a lot of different influences on this track and hopefully there’s a little something for everyone to enjoy in it :)

Rocco's Cupcakes closed?

I saw that Rocco's Cupcakes closed? Seems rather sudden, I can't find any announcements that was happening. Really enjoyed their cupcakes and was looking to use them for a wedding. Anyone got any info? Did they relocate?
