The City of Keene is pleased to announce the return of Ward Optimization Weeks (WOW!). This popular City initiative aims to ensure equitable distribution of maintenance services across all five wards, address specific resident-identified needs, and improve our infrastructure’s overall condition and cleanliness. We hope this approach will foster community pride and enhance the quality of life for all residents. The 2026 WOW! season begins on Monday, July 6, 2026, kicking off in Ward 1, and continues through August 7, 2026.
