Join the Echo Park Parade, December 13th, 2009

September 15, 2009

It doesn’t include stairways, but it is a neighborhood parade – we’re going, and so should you. The route travels down Sunset Blvd., roughly from Alvarado St. to Elysian Park Ave. Perfect for kids, jingling bells, and supporting what is (arguably) the most walkable section of our city’s most important thoroughfare. You can even create your own float. Here’s a preview of the route.

The event is sponsored by nine community groups, as well as California State Assemblyman Kevin de Leon and the Dodgers. Additional sponsorship is being sought. For lots more information, visit: Echo Park Community Parade – Holiday Magic, December 13th, 2008.

Using the blog…

THE BANANA BLOG is about the world's most endangered - and dangerous - fruit. THE BIG PARADE is about stairways, route and transit geekery, and pedestrian pursuits in Los Angeles. You can also read all the topics at once, which might also include productivity, geekery, DIY whatever, mountain biking, stuff that I think is funny that nobody else likely will, and other boring, useless crap.
