The fundraising for rebuilding McKinley Parkcontinues and the target numbers have gotten better. They are now projecting approximately $200,000 for a minimum rebuild and $600,000 for a major rebuild. It sounds like insurance and city funds will add up to $500,000 so the fundraising target for the community is $100,000 and they are already fast on their way to this. Several more great fundraisers and we should have a new playground next summer.
Want to get in on the fundraising and have a great meal too? Then go to the SactoMoFo (Sacramento Mobile Food) event on Sunday October 28th from 12:00 to 4:00 at the Sutter Landing Regional Park (28th Street over the tracks past C Street).
As per Steve’s Facebook:
“Come and enjoy lunch & a beer with your neighbors, Councilman Steve Cohn, and MC Mark S. Allen – and great live music from Hero’s Last Mission and Rebel Punk – with some of the region’s best mobile kitchens and some of Sacramento’s best restaurant chefs, too! We’ll have an extensive beer garden full of local microbrews and everything from paella to sandwiches to BBQ to authentic Hawaiian shave ice and Belgian waffles. We hope you can make it – and please consider riding your bike! We will have lots of bike parking, and maybe even a bike valet!”
