Tomorrow, July 1, Del Ray will celebrate July First Thursday with a theme of Health and Wellness - along with the traditional nod to the Fourth of July holiday - from 6:00pm - 9:00pm.
There will be music at the Del Ray Farmer's Market location (Mt. Vernon Ave and East Oxford) by The Legend of Lummy Hallin featuring our own Fox Vernon. Dozens of neighbors and businesses have baked and donated cakes, pies, cookies, etc. for an old-fashioned Cake Walk.
The "walk" will run about every 15 minutes from 6:00pm till 8:30pm or until the cakes run out! Not familiar with a Cake Walk?
It's similar to playing musical chairs and will be done in groups - groups of children, groups of strollers, groups of adults -well, you get the picture.
There will even be a group for Del Ray's favorite four legged friends, although they will get doggie treats, not cakes.
July First Thursday will also include a fun scavenger hunt to eight local businesses on Mt. Vernon that will provide heath and wellness screenings, fun activities and demonstrations (yoga, massage, etc.).
At each of the eight stops you will get a stamp for your 'entry' form. The first 50 completed entries will receive goody bags and all entries will be eligible for several grand prizes.
