Congrats PARK(ing) Day friends on a successful day! The weather held out and we had Old Tyme Music, A Bird and Baby Sanctuary, a Picnic Operetta, a Water Runoff Ecological Education, and a bunch of Mobile Parks. Big props to Space 150 and make-better.org for attempting to create 26 1-hour temporary parks. I think they managed a total of 20, which is a huge feat! Keep an eye out for photos, a few articles, and a short audio story on MPR coming soon.

Hey Everybody, it’s PARK(ing) Day!

To see where this years PARK(ing) Spaces are, visit http://parkingday.org/parking-day-map. There may also be a handful of Spaces around town that didn’t make it onto the map, so keep an eye out. It even looks like the weather is supposed to clear up as the day progresses, so head on out and check out PARK(ing) Day. Don’t forget to bring a quarter or two to help plug the meter!

We’ll be out from roughly 10 - 3. See you out there!

Don’t fret folks, it looks like it’s going to clear up, and warm up, as the day progresses!
