Block party tips.
Block parties are a great way to get to know your neighbors. And while they’re a lot of fun, it’s important to plan ahead to make sure that the bash goes off without a hitch. Here are a few things to remember:
- Get a group of people to help. Forming a committee is much more efficient than trying to do everything yourself.
- Make sure you get the necessary permits. Forgetting this simple act can sink a party in a second.
- Figure out how to get traffic blocked off your street.
- Make sure activities are planned. Nothing gets people talking like a good old-fashioned three-legged race or pie-eating contest.
- Invite the local police and fire departments to mingle with your neighbors and show off their equipment.
- Bring plenty of coolers for perishable foods and cold beverages.
