: : : : : : : : : There is a possibility I may move my family to Kittanning. I have driven through western PA a few times. Is Kittanning a good place to raise a family?
: : : : : : : : Just Ducky. Couldn't go wrong, probably end up like the Brady bunch.......
: : : : : : : How do you say Kittanning??
: : : : : :
: : : : : : It is pronounced Ca-TAN-ing
: : : : :
: : : : : I am glad I asked! I have visited the website and went on the "walk through" tour. What is there to do nearby for families? My wife and I have a 19 year old (in the Army, only see him occasionally), a 17 year old (spends most of his time thinking about girls and football), a 15 year old girl (mostly boys and never football), and a 2 year old girl. I can go to the websites and see the usual community information, but I thought it might be good to come here and ask people who live in Kittanning.
: : : : There are people who love it, people who tolerate it, and other people we wish would move away - no names mentioned because somebody might feel that way about me, too.
: : : : There are enough activities. For the 15 year old, I'd suggest checking Venture Crew 630 (their focus is community service but they have fun doing it), for the two-year-old, there are a couple of good day-care facilities if you need that, for the 17 year old, maybe the same venture crew because they are co-ed and the current mix is about 3:2, I think... more girls than guys.
: : : : If you want to ask some questions by phone, there are local volunteers listed on Kittanning's page on Local4All.com - http://16201.local4all.com
: : : What about church life? Does the Christian church in Kittanning reach out to families? Would new people be welcomed? Please be honest...
: : THIS GUY IS A PHONY. DON'T WASTE ANY MORE TIME ON HIM..
: And you know this...how???
