Heads up if you’re planning to go tonight!

The River Market shall go on!

TODAY ONLY
*The market will be at Village Green Park. Bring your chairs!
*Most vendors and food trucks are still coming.
*Restrooms are in the pool locker rooms and will be kept open until 8 pm.
*As always, no outside coolers are allowed so we can prevent bringing outside alcohol into the market. It will be available for purchase inside the park and within the park confines only.
*There is very little public parking at the park, and the pool will still be open until 6 pm. If you need to drop someone off, please use Chapel or Green Streets.
*There is parking available within a few blocks of the park as shown in the picture below.
*If you do park on the side streets, please be courteous to the residential neighborhood by not blocking any driveways or parking on private property.
*As it is a much smaller park, please keep dogs home today.
*No bouncy house today.

Thank you in advance, and we'll see you at Village Green!
