ACCESSIBILITY
We have rented one accessible port-a-pottie, which will be located on the boulevard next to the soccer field along Edmonton Street.
The block party will be set up under the trees on the north side of the soccer field. Visitors will need to park on Edmonton Street, Carlton Street, or the surrounding area and use the paved walkways to access the site.
Unfortunately the City of Winnipeg doesn't have accessible parking spots available on the public streets that surround Central Park.
Please contact
YWxhbiB8IHNha2loaXdlICEgY2E= by June 24 if you are concerned about barriers and need to drop off a family member closer to the block party site because we have helpers who can wait with them while you find a parking spot in the area.
