National Night Out roundup

National Night Out is tomorrow. Every year neighborhoods around the city and country host events on this night. New Visions Civic League will be hosting a friendly get together in the 1200 block of 23rd Street starting around 6PM. The combined Union Hill and and Church Hill (UHA/CHA) Associations will hold a combined pot-luck at Jefferson Park starting at 6:30PM. Anything else going on?

More details on the UHA/CHA pot-luck:

The UHA will sponsor and host the pot-luck picnic in Jefferson Park while the CHA will feature a community walk starting at the National Park House in Chimborazo Park at 5:45. Citizens will then walk, bike, hike to Chimborazo Playground Park (29th and Grace St.) at 5:55 to meet other folks joining in the walk. From there the walk will go to Libby Hill Park (29th and Franklin St.) at 6:05 and then to Patrick Henry Park (Broad and 24th) at 6:10. Then the walk will go over to pick up more folks at the City Overlook 6:20 (Grace and 22nd St.), and finally go up 22nd St. to E. Clay and then into Jefferson Park to join the Union Hill Association for the combined community festivities. For those on the walk to Jefferson Park there will be a van that will accompany the walkers between all the parks and to help convey the foods/beverages to Jefferson Park.

    I know! It always seems to be on the hottest day of the year. People in Texas have theirs in October.

    And hardly anyone plans for the vegetarians of the bunch, ;).

    It does sound like a great idea though and if it weren’t for the heat I’d probably go (and the fact that I need to walk my dogs during that time frame).

    The C.A.R. Security Team will be out IN FORCE to monitor this “walk.” Random checkpoints will be set up to regulate clothing. NOTE: If you are not wearing clothing made before 1890, or replica clothing made by approved seamstresses/tailors, then you will be forced to go back to your historic home and change into C.A.R.-approved outerwear. Underwear will not be checked, as such garments are currently not within our scope.

    As you all already know, this rule was voted on behind closed doors many months ago, so do not pretend you haven’t heard about this. Historic phrases such as “yea,” “nea” and “huzzah” were heard at this meeting, which made for a more historically pleasant time.

    If you are found to be wearing unregulated clothing during this historic occasion, you will receive a citation. 3 citations and you’ll receive a warning. 5 warnings, and you’ll receive a verbal reprimand. 6 verbal reprimands will get you a written reprimand. You do not want to know what comes after a written reprimand.

    Please, before our history becomes the future!

    Next month, our closed meeting will entail ridding the neighborhood of computers, telephones, blenders and the like. See the email and/or fax I sent last week from my iPhone.

    Hey C.A.R. rep:

    You’re forgetting the “contemporary, yet compatible” part of the guidelines. You’re wardrobe suggestions do not comply.

    I look forward to your next post!
