The Friends of RIA (FoRIA) inaugural Fall Fest seemed to have been a smashing success. The Fest was crowded and residents were abundant. We even were treated to a nice dance demonstration from a local RIA dance/karate studio. Here are some quotes from people who attended the event:
Kudos to everyone for such a great event!
I am so excited about the future of Rhode Island Ave! Great job everyone!
It was so cool to see so many people out on the Avenue and kind of imagine a time where it could look like that all the time!
Awesome job everyone and awesome turnout!
For being the main planner for this event, Joan Shipps deserves a HUGE thank you! If you missed the event, don’t worry. I am told that next year’s will be bigger and even better! Special thanks also goes out to the numerous local RIA businesses that had booths at the event!
