What's a KeNevA ?

Pronounced Kuh-Neevaa (only faster), KeNevA Enterprises, LLC is
 the business entity owned by Kent "T" Sandhagen and Geneva Marie Brett.
The weird capitalization represents the partner's equality and independence.

KeNevA Enterprises Unlimited commenced business operations in 1985;
the limited liability company (LLC) was formed in 1998.
Although the company has varied ventures and investments
the mainstay of KeNevA Enterprises is waterSkiing.


The KeNevA Mission

The KeNevA mission is to develop Humanitarian,
Ecological and Responsible (HER) business ventures
that shall endure to the benefit of its owners while
providing valuable services to the public, thereby enriching the lives of participants and provider.  

Thusly KeNevA shall personify the acronym T.E.A.M.
(Together Everyone Achieves More)
 for the betterment of the entity, the individuals comprising same, and the world at large.
KeNevA shall promote the credo
"What the mind can conceive and believe can be achieved!"
to enhance its own ventures as well as to inspire
others to dare to dream, and attain their goals.


The KeNevA Goal

The KeNevA Goal is to do for the sport of waterSkiing
what Mohammed Ali did for the sport of boxing.

KeNevA, along with certified psychologists and licensed clinical marriage and family therapists, heralds WaterSkiing as the ultimate family activity.  Families are outdoors, participating in a physical activity, each individual being the "star" during their time on the water, regardless of ability.  Interaction and communication are necessary components to the activity, even spectators can be as close as 75 feet to the skier at all times.  Memories created waterSkiing can last a lifetime, bonding family through pleasurable and physically beneficial experiences.

Historically waterSkiing has been a "what you've got, or who you know" sport.  Most participants learned through outings with family or friends.  KeNevA shall act as a portal into the waterSki world, certain millions of the general public would participate if given access to the sport.  In becoming such a portal, KeNevA shall introduce the sport at its best, a family oriented activity, prohibiting alcohol and providing a safe nurturing environment for children as well as adults.  When you feel safe you believe you can do anything . . . like fly, or walk on water:)

KeNevA History

A complete resume of business accomplishments is available upon request.  Click on SKI POND for business highlights of the site.
 

The KeNevA history begins with a sappy love story about soul mates.  We'll spare the details here, just ask if you want "the rest of the story".   Basically, they shared a business lunch and have been together since (1984).  They blended two families and were unexpectedly blessed with a child that united the two families more than wedding vows could ever hope to. (Although married, Geneva retained her birth name in honor of her father who died 4 days before her birth while serving in the US Army during the Korean Conflict.) Today the children are grown and out of the KeNevA household.  Kent's son Brice is married to Cindy, they have an 8 year old daughter, Morgan. Brice is a general engineering contracting in Redding, Neva's daughter Steph remains single, and is Assistant General Manager for Applebee's in Gilroy. Kent's son Jobe is single and a police officer in Merced.  Neva's  son Chris is married to Danica, and works with his Dad in the family custom sign/lettering/t-shirt printing business.  The love child, KeNyA, is 18, a full time student at Rutgers University in New Jersey, works for the University as an Accounting Clerk, is on the Women's Crew (rowing) team, and is a spectacular blend of all her family members.  KeNyA is named for the African nation, her inheritance to greatness.

 KeNevA believes that whatever the mind can conceive and believe can be achieved.  Beyond the soul-mate relationship KeNevA shares  business interests.  KeNevA is a California licensed flooring contractor, both Kent and Geneva are California licensed real estate agents.  After the death of her mother and grandmother Geneva took over the remains of the family's 57 year old income tax business, out of respect and loyalty for the clients who've done business with the family for decades upon decades upon decades (some over 5 decades).  Geneva was raised in the family tax business, learning not to pre judge others by their outward appearance.   

"KNA"

    "KNA" is not only the abbreviation for KeNevA, it's also an acronym for "Kick  'N' Attitude".  Kick N Attitude has a twofold meaning; (a) the youthful expression that means to relax/enjoy, and (b) negative attitudes aren't appreciated or tolerated at or around KeNevA's.  No disrespect is intended, and that's the purpose of the rule, a negative attitude is disrespectful of one's own self and others as well.  We're all here on this earth for a relatively short time, don't waste it being negative, or being around negative influences . . . to do so is an absolute waste of your life.   

Perhaps we of KeNevA will never complete great works that will change the world; we can at least make sure our little corner is awesomely rewarding; mentally, spiritually, and physically. 

 At KeNevA's place, where you've been, what you look like, or what you've got doesn't make a difference.
What makes a difference is who you are and where you're going!
Whether it's at our ski site or through one of our other ventures,

Welcome to our World!
You'll find us very comfortable people.
