What a great idea! Kudos to all the organizers.
I went over to Overington Park with my kids for this event. The park was filled with people waiting. We all waited until almost 4 o’clock and nobody showed up. I drove over to Wolmot Park and there was nobody there either. Everyone who was there waiting was very upset that the event did not happen.
