Things To Do in COS

April 08



Just a heads up for those of you who are looking for fun proletarian Mayday fun. Friends of the paper are hosting an alleycat race and get-together tomorrow. Bobby G of WeUsOur informs us that registration for the race begins at 9 a.m. in the Prospect Lake parking lot. The race starts at 10 a.m., with four or five checkpoints and will end up at Blunt Park (25th and Vermijo).

Festivities continue at Blunt Park from noon to sunset, with vegan food, kickball, an acoustic set by the Haunted Windchimes and something called Blood Bowl, which judging by this picture from a previous Bowl, involves putting on football pads and beating the shit out of each other.

All of this is weather permitting. The backup location in case of rain or snow or hurricanes is 232 N. Walnut. Go ahead and give Bobby a call at 719/227-5548 with any questions. Hope to see you there!

    Last year I remember they got rained out by midafternoon. I hope this year turns out better for you guys!

    I love living on the Westside, and I love that this glorious event takes place right across the street from my house.

    Will there be kickball?
