Historic Meridian Park’s Summer BBQ & Pitch-in will be held at Christy Krieg’s home in the 3300 block of N. Washington Blvd. from 4 to 7 p.m. The neighborhood association will provide hamburgers and hotdogs while residents are invited to bring their favorite dishes to the popular annual event. A magician will join us to entertain the children (and adults too!). Back-up arrangements have been made to have the event at a Doug Day’s home in the 200 block of E. 33rd St. if there is rain.
The Summer BBQ & Pitch-in is one of two summer social events held in lieu of our regularly scheduled neighborhood association meetings. The BBQ replaces our July meeting while the sixth annual Fall Festival will replace our September meeting. The Fall Festival, which features the annual chili cook-off and cornbread competition, will be held Sunday, September 28 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the home of Greg and Gretchen Turner in the 32oo block of N. Pennsylvania St.
