Capitol Hill, Easy Fun Sports: 'We're Bringing Recess Back!'

January 16, 2012 7:00 PM - 60 attended

GIANT CAPITOL HILL SNOWBALL FIGHT!

I'm keeping track of all the RSVPs here from the seven other meetup groups that are co-promoting this.

-----------

What a gift we've just been given! 4-7 inches of packable, soft, snow. Let's take advantage of it! We'll split people into two teams and run around the upper part of Cal Anderson Park. Dress warmly, wear waterproof clothing if possible, and be prepared to be hit with snowballs! And lastly, of course, there's always a chance that a snowball might accidentally hit your face. Just FYI.

MEET BY THE BIG WATER FOUNTAIN!

Andrea S

It's definitely melting. But, it's supposed to start snowing again at 6pm! We should be just fine.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the snow restarts. I live a few blocks from Cal And, and there's not much snow left here (just slush + ice).

Patrick, can you check the field at 6:00pm and post an update here?

Any status of the snow conditions? If it's anything like in U District, it's hard packed snow. Not really too great for snowball fights since someone can get hurt pretty bad.
