Turtles hatched on July 21st!

Residents on Van Buren Avenue in Saint Paul's Hamline Midway
neighborhood gathered on Saturday, July 21, 2007 to paint a series of
colorful turtles at two intersections and the full block in-between.

Pascal & Van Buren site refreshed

 

  The Van Buren/Pascal repainting day was held on June 9, 2007, and was a great gathering of neighbors and friends of the circle.

Painting a second coat of paint went much faster than the first time, and we used significantly less paint than before. Our day was threatened with a surrounding storm, which came less than an hour after we had finished painting. A great benefit of using traffic marking paint is that is dries very quickly and the mural was not compromised by the torrents of water which came. Unfortunately, our community circus was rained out, but we look forward to having it at National Night Out.
