Good food, friendly people, children having fun with bubbles, great music, the warmth and aromas from the BBQ grills. The chill wind and threat of rain had no power against this gathering. The first Greater White Salmon Block Party on June 16 at Rhinegarten Park had its own power - that of neighbors meeting and greeting neighbors.
Organized by Jennifer Hull, our librarian, and several of her neighbors, the event was an outgrowth of the Horizons Project that White Salmon and Bingen participated in this past winter and spring.
More information and more kudos will be posted when Jennifer returns from her vacation. She has all the info. For now, thanks to everyone who organized, helped, played music, participated, and all the super children who were there.
