RAIN PLAN

We’re not afraid of a little rain! Here’s the plan for the 11th Annual Hike and Base Camp Block Party on Saturday, March 25th:

Take a Hike -

Rain or shine (unless there are thunderstorms), registration will be held at Lemann Playground at 9:30 AM. Free guided Hikes have been moved up 30-minutes to begin at 10:00 AM. Now is your chance to see the Greenway’s stormwater management features in action!

• Hike Meeting Location - 9:30 AM at Lemann Playground, 628 N. Claiborne Ave (Immediately riverside of Claiborne on Greenway trail).

• Parking - Free parking is available at the Mahalia Jackson Theater Parking Lot, accessible from Basin St. Shuttles will return Hikers from Second Line to Mahalia Jackson Parking Lot, 12-3 PM.

• Thunderstorms Plan - In the event of thunderstorms, the walking portion of the Hike will be canceled, and all activities will be moved to Second Line Brewing Party (11am start). We will announce thunderstorm cancellation by 8:00 AM on Saturday via email, social media, and posts on lafittegreenway.org/hike2017.
