@Kelly-You can only get a temporary permit if you are non-profit that has been in business for 3 years. Also, dealing with park boards, as we found out with the ABR, can be a bit of a nightmare.

Actually you can get a temporary permit to host the event through the City.

I like the Como idea, but Midway is probably easier and more affordable since the saints already have a liquor license…

I think we should lobby for this event to be held in Como Park, sort of like the Great Taste of the Midwest does in Madison. The parking lot / concrete didn’t seem ideal to me. JMHO

I brought sunscreen. Nice event. Sunday fests are always hard though.

I remember it being a beautiful day, and I third the sunscreen. I got the worst burn of the summer there.

Ditto on the sunscreen! I got the worst, back on the knees burn there last year, but the great brewers and their beer were well worth it. Can’t wait!
