After re-living with attendees the events of the day, delicious details of the food, great conversations with friends and neighbors, and hilarious asides all week, it’s certainly time I acknowledged the people who made the 2010 Harvard Heights/West Adams Heights-Sugar Hill Block Party possible.

First, big congratulations go out to Bethany Ulrich and Julia McAlee for planning, organizing, and staging this great event.  Over 400 people attended this year’s block party, far surpassing our wildest expectations.

We had face painters, clowns, sketch comedy, a 1925 retro-rod, fire engines, a kids’ jumper, a video tent, an art mural, a spiritual advisor, great bands, and terrific food.  There were so many attractions and things to do that kids and adults alike stayed well past the event’s official 6:00 PM end time.

 

A HUGE Thank You goes out to El Salsabor Restaurant, Papa Christo’s, Pronto Pizza, and Tana Ethiopian Restaurant. Please remember them next time you go out to eat. The food was deeelicious and the line lasted for two and a half HOURS and we fed everyone only because of the generosity of these wonderful restaurants.   Eat in the community!!
