We checked in at Veterans Park in Holyoke for a look at the Block Party being thrown by the members of C.R.U.S.H.
We were heading up for a quick bike ride before Kelly had to work, but stopped in just long enough for bloggerette to 'pluck a duck' from the Providence Ministries for the Needy...
...and for me to find out I'm basically a grenade with the pin pulled.
This was definitely a Holyoke-centric event, geared towards bringing the community together for the benefit of revitalizing a city they're proud to call home.
We did a quick round of the park, checking out the music, games, arts and crafts...
But the underlying theme to this block party was that it was a gathering for public and political issues as well.
The block party looked like a success for the Citizens for the Revitalization and Urban Success of Holyoke. A group of people who have a serious C.R.U.S.H. on Holyoke...

Sorry I missed you Tony. Looks like I was taking the tour of the almost finished intermodal center while you were making your rounds.
You guys did a good job. I thought I saw you across the way, but you were in a conversation with someone, then I didn't see you again later. Also saw Christine Alger and said hi passing by, but she looked at me like "hi, do I know you?"
Ha Ha! That's funny because that's exactly what Christine would say.
Hi! I know you! I'm sorry if I seemed spacy, I was.. well.. spacy! I was in charge of all the volunteers.
I am SO GLAD you came by! Wasn't that poem amazing?!
I got a crush on Holyoke!
Yes, great freestyle too. Your work paid off, the block party looked like a hit!
