The Cole Park Unity Day event was well attended. The crowd included politicians, police, community organizers and the most important attendees residents. the crowd was estimated at over several hundred.
A quick observation from JP, who attended with his daughter:
The vibe around the park was similar to when my family was looking to buy a house at 84th & Vernon. We decided to walk around the neighborhood, and walked to the Park.
There were families everywhere, peaceful...and great place where our family could fit.
The main differences from that first visit to Cole Park that i noticed were: "celebrities" and major city/state officials, police officers, and the several dozen bikers (in support of fellow biker, Tom Worthem,. My daughter, riding her tricycle, told some of them she wanted to join them. They all smiled, and added to the community feeling).
Here are a few pictures from the event.
