Centennial events continue with free cake & penguins

Over a dozen folks joined yesterday evening’s neighborhood walk led by Urban Safaris. One final walking tour will be held next Wednesday, August 1st. RSVP to 944-WALK (9255).

Hillcrest Centennial events celebrating our first 100 years will continue the following day at noon when free cake will be served at noon on Thursday, August 2nd at Fifth & University by Amy Whitson (William Wesley Whitson’s great great granddaughter). Please join us to celebrate the exact date 100 years ago when her granddad opened his “Hillcrest” Company’s real estate office where Union Bank now stands. The event also ends the Hillcrest Centennial Scavenger Quest. The grand prize will be awarded that night at the neighborhood potluck & BBQ social held at Joyce Beers Community Center in the Uptown District. Then be a part of a Hillcrest first! Enjoy a movie under the stars on Wednesday, August 8th as the award-winning documentary “March of the Penguins” is shown for FREE atop Whole Foods Market in their spacious parking lot. Bring your family, friends and folding chairs to this fun event.
