Welcome New Members of Together Frankfort!
Together Frankfort is embarking on its 6th year of existence. We launched our first membership drive in April 2022 and now have a growing list of dues paying members (click here for the most recent membership list). We can better plan our activities with funds from dues paying members and from donations.
Because we started the membership campaign over one year ago, many of our memberships are coming up for renewal. Each member should receive a notice, automatically, 7 days before their membership fees are due.
Thank you for everyone who has joined. We challenge you to recruit two more members!
Thank you to everyone who joined us on Saturday, April 22, 2023, at Ward Oates Amphitheater in Frankfort's Beautiful River View Park to Honor Local Businesses, Organizations & Schools working to Sustain our Precious Planet!

Together Frankfort expresses our appreciation to F.O.R.R. for the award received during their annual Awards Banquet. From a Together Frankfort meeting about the atrocities at Charlottesville, F.O.R.R. emerged.
In a 2021 Juneteenth forum, Together Frankfort representative Karen Armstrong-Cummings presented a proposal that all local governments work with interested folks to sponsor a community-wide celebration. Along with city leaders, Mayor Layne Wilkerson & then-County Judge Executive Huston Wells, Ed Powe & F.O.R.R. took the lead in making the annual celebration happen.
We appreciate so much the incredible steps that F.O.R.R. has initiated to make us "Better Together."
