Posting for my awesome housemate ...

The parking lot at Herbert Street and Day Street is empty every Wednesday evening, when parking is still restricted after the farmers market is gone. We hate to see all that prime real estate going to waste, so we're calling for Davis Square Recess! And the first one is TOMORROW. We'll have some supplies, but bring your own chalk, jumprope, hula hoop, foursquare ball, wiffle bat, frisbee, etc ...

 

Where: Parking lot at Herbert Street & Day Street (map)

When: Tomorrow, Wednesday July 14 @ 7:00PM

What: Drawing with chalk, jumprope contests, foursquare games, hopscotch ...

Who: All ages

 

See you there!
