Go Outside and Take a Walk with the Brooklyn Blogade

It seems that "Brooklyn's Backyard", otherwise known as Prospect Park is the place to be this Sunday. Two great Brooklyn-based bloggers are throwing a Brooklyn Blogade Picnic and inviting everyone down to see the park and what it has to offer.

Brenda from Prospect: A Year in the Park, will be giving visitors a guided tour starting at 11 am, followed by food and drink around the Music Pagoda. The guys from Dope on the Slope will also be on hand, and if you haven't checked out their blog, "Chronicling the Brooklynization of Two Tennessee Hillbillies," hook yourself up...great stuff.

Prospect Park was designed by Frederick Law Olmstead and Calvert Vaux, the same team that built Central Park in Manhattan, so if you haven't experienced it yet, this is a great excuse to head over.

What: Brooklyn Blogade Picnic In Prospect Park
When: Sunday, July 27th
Time: 12:00 noon - 3:00pm (walking tour @ 11:00 am)
