Camp fair: another event NOT downtown.

You can't make up stuff like this. Saturday January 3 there's this event about summer camp for kids. You'd think it would be held downtown so that it would be accessible to the most people, including those without cars. Instead, it's at the campus like high school. Maybe that's to have outdoor activities, except that it's the dead of winter.

So why is it at the high school? Probably for the same reason that the Council of Neighborhood Associations (CNA) holds its meetings far from downtown: those who run the city do not live downtown. Downtown to them is a place for their amusement and convenience, a place to which they will only go by car. This accounts for the dozen or so pseudo interstate highway roads that slash through downtown.
