It’s been a long winter, so join us at Mill Ruins Park in downtown Minneapolis to welcome back the sun and entertain passersby!

Current status: ON
Forecast is windy but dry!

===

Where to meet:
Riverfront Parking Ramp
Level 4, southeast corner
212 9th Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN

Plan to arrive a bit early so by the time 1pm rolls around we’re somewhat ready to go. Note that parking is not free – expect to pay $8 (CASH ONLY) for the afternoon. Consider carpooling if it works for you.

How to get there:
It’s actually pretty easy from major highways, and requires minimal downtown driving.

From 94 West: exit north (right) at Cedar and follow it to Washington Ave; turn right on 9th Ave S
From 94 East: exit to 35W North; follow 35W instructions
From 35W: exit north/west at Washington Ave; turn right on 9th Ave S

Or, use your GPS of choice and set the destination for 212 9th Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN

Once we’re there:
Suit up and have fun! Be prepared for lots of walking. Some kind of dinner or food afterwards – suggestions welcome.

I will be there! this will be one of my first public suiting events! Really excited

[Delete This Account Please]

Depending on the sidewalk conditions and such after what appears to be yet another bombing of snow… I may be there. Or may just come for the walk without suiting.  Fresh air is good regardless… well, as fresh as you can get in a city anyway. XD

Count me in!

I plan to run around with my Canon and do photography.

Haha, right? I definitely am trying to avoid the confusion that stems from the weirdness of that ramp. It’s not too bad if you know where to go!

[Jacek]

I’ll be there this year I think. I’ve not gone suiting since Halloween and I’ve not been out with the group in almost a year!

[Drake M.]

Okay so change of plans…

Going to be suiting instead, but not as a fox…Le-gasp.  =)

Yessss – embrace the duck side :3

So hey – how do we feel about heading to the Mall of America afterwards for dinner and perhaps iced cream? I know it’s not near downtown, but it’s easy enough to get to and we could plan for Buffalo Wild Wings or Famous Daves, both of which are delicious.

If you’re going to do post-romp ice cream, you should really just hit Izzy’s which is right there and has some of the best ice cream in town!

I might be able to make it. I’d just have to take off at or as close to 4 as possible so I can still make it to work on time.

I used

the whole page

for this!

Izzy’s is also great! Depends on whether we want to have dinner or not 🙂
