The police were the first to arrive and the last to leave -- police and sheriff reps clearly enjoyed meeting everyone and stayed around to answer questions, hand out helpful information, flash their lights and sirens, and show the kids what their cars look like from the inside. Among the questions: How hot is it to wear all that gear including thick black polyester uniforms on such a sweltering day? To which they all laughed...
The thunder rumbled ominously here and there but ultimately stayed away, which everyone appreciated
Broyhill Park volunteers did a great job grilling for everyone
One of our best turnouts yet, with many folks from both
neighborhoods, 50-60 neighbors!
Many thanks to the volunteers who staffed this event or brought
food, especially co-organizers Sandy McConville and Carol Ofiesh, and to
Woodley Pool for hosting it.
