To all who participated, thank you for your efforts. The weather prevented Fiddlehead and This Day in History from entertaining the crowd, but everyone arrived relatively dry at Red Rock Park to have a hotdog or two, some chips and a soda. I hope everyone got to know at least one new person they didn't know before. More to come.

The weather looks good tomorrow morning. High of 70, some sun and some clouds and the chance of a thundershower in the afternoon. We will have a bottle of water at City Hall for each registered participant, but it wouldn't hurt to bring extra. For a full weather forecast, see Accuweather.com. If anything serious weather-wise develops, we'll keep you posted.

Just added: a map of the routes we'll take through the city from City Hall to Red Rock Park. What will people think when they see us marching down the street? That we take pride in Lynn and want to see a safer and cleaner city? See you at 9:30 AM this Saturday, June 12!
