The neighborhood Block Party held on Saturday, September 8 was a great success. As in the past, the party started early, and continued into the wee hours.

The USC Volunteer Fire Dept provided water fun for the young at heart (see photos below). Children's entertainment included a bike parade and contest, airbrush tattoos, a moon bounce, and a movie at dusk (thanks to Kevin Hughes for music and outdoor movie wizardry).

Adults enjoyed the good company of their neighbors, food by Atria's, and the Penn State vs. Notre Dame football game on a large-screen TV. Bea Browand was the lucky winner of a lucrative 50/50 raffle.

For those who like to plan early, next year's Block Party is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, September 6.
