So far, AP and ABC have indicated that they will be out with photographers and reporters so have your message ready! Watch for John Klemack from NBC. That guy is everywhere!

AFTERPARTY:
The Park[ing] Day LA Wrap Party takes place @ 7 pm in Echo Park at Echo Lake, Logan Street and Park Ave, by the picnic tables. (north side of the park) The Echo Park Film Center will be hosting a ride-in movie screening at 7:30. Bring lawn chairs, refreshments, your friends and your Park[ing] Day LA stories. We'll be screening Contested Streets, some AlleyCat shorts and a classic surprise involving Triplets.

DON'T HAVE A PARK BUT WANT TO BE INVOLVED?
Julie of the Morning Night Cafe in Silver Lake (1523 Griffith Park Blvd. - Los Angeles, CA 90026-1049 (323) 664-8811) would like to build a park for locals to hang out, play chess and enjoy refreshments but she needs some volunteers to help her build the parks. Call Julie if you are looking for a park to join.



Echo Park Time Bank would like some help with materials (astroturf) so if you have any ideas or if you can contribute, give Autumn a shout at "echo park time bank"  <echoparktimebank@gmail.com>

PHOTOS & VIDEOS:
Please send us your photos and your videos in quicktime format (.mov) so we can post them on Facebook, YouTube and so Rebar can use them as well.

Here is a great writeup on Park(ing) Day, where it originated and basic guidelines: http://newmobilityagenda.blogspot.com/2009/09/parking-day-is-september-18th-2009.html

Have fun! Don't forget to hydrate, put on sunblock and we'll see you at the Echo Park Lake for the ride-in movies!
