The Annual CEDAR PARK FAIR will be held this coming Saturday, Sept. 27 from
Noon-5pm in beautiful Cedar Park at 50th and Baltimore Avenues. Live music,
vendors, food, great kids activities PLUS you get to buy tickets for the famous
RAFFLE with over fifty prizes, including the Grand Prize of "$500 in Fine
Dining" with gift certificates from more than ten local restaurants including
Dock Street, Vietnam, Abbraccio, Marigold, White Dog, Vientiane, and Dahlak.
The Cedar Park neighborhood covers the area from 46th to 52nd Street and from
Hazel to Kingsessing Avenue. Unlike other local neighborhoods beseiged with
students and slumlords, 11-story hotels, and one-way streets for commuters to
pass through nonstop at 35 mph, our neighborhood is a peaceful, congenial
setting for perhaps the most diverse and wonderful population in the city.
Come Saturday to see what's so nice about the Cedar Park area!
Here's a quick tivia quiz for Cedar Park cognescenti ...
1. What current business has operated continuously for the longest time in
