Taste of Park Manor - Bitter? Sour?

Sorry for the negative title...but I went to Tatse of Park Manor last Saturday.

From the photos you saw...that was pretty much it from 11 am to 12:30 pm

2 Bouncers (one, with a slide, was popular. The other barely had kids in it, including my own. Their fun lasted about 92 seconds each in that one).

The only other thing happening was some food cooking. But nothing for my relatives from Holland to do.

Even though the church would be within walking distance of my home, it didn't inspire me to want to bring my family there.


some suggestions for next year:

- Join with other churches and make it a "Tatse of Park Manor/ Chatham"

- The week before, have a group clean out all the rocks & trash
- Have vendors with samples or things for sale
- Have other activities for adults
- Hae greeters who can talk to visitors

  1. They meant for it to be titled "taste of Park Manor" as in Park Manor Christian Church. This church and land has and will continue to be an issue in Chatham. The pastor and several of his members have political aspirations and use the church as the launching ground. They have had plans in the past to have private events at that site that would inconvenience residents and their response was less than acceptable. So I don't see them opening up the venue for community use.
