Saturday’s Park Slope Summer Stroll Makes Up for Last Week’s Washout
This past Saturday’s Park Slope Summer Stroll fared much better than the prior rain-soaked swim along Fifth Avenue. In fact, it was perfect weather for a fun-filled evening walk with food, music and games for young and old.
It was a very nice turnout as crowds gathered to walk along Fifth from 12th to 18th Streets and enjoy a variety of activities along the way. While last week’s event ended early due to the weather, this week’s stroll, sponsored by the Park Slope Fifth Avenue Business Improvement District, was packed from beginning to end.
Activities included bouncy rides for children at 12th and 13th Streets. Crunch Gym demonstrated kickboxing for kids and there was yoga and stick aerobics for adults along streets lined with artificial turf. Also, the legendary Bubble Guy formed giant bubbles as he entertained crowds of kids.
