Once again, it's time to load up on the sunscreen and fulfill your childhood dream of being a traffic crossing guard! (Don't try denying it, we all had that dream once..) This is by far the most popular of all the Sunday parkways, so we're really hoping to get a large turnout. To that end, we're attempting a complete afternoon takeover of Colonel Summers Park. As of this posting, there are 26 volunteer positions available for the 12:30 - 4 shifts and we'd like to fill all of them with TA members.

Go here, select Col Summers park 12:30 - 4pm and enter Timbers Army as your organization.

Now once you've gotten drunk on power from preventing bicyclists from being crushed under car tires, you can head over to Bazi Bierbrasserie at 32nd and Hawthorne, where the No Pity Van will be parked. Check in at the van, then head inside where you can get $1.00 off your drink when you show your 107ist membership card. The fun doesn't end there, however! At 6pm, the Timbers Reserves take on the SJ Earthquake reserves at Jeld-Wen. If you don't already have tickets, check out the nifty deal from AC Portland:

So to recap:

• Sunday, August 26th. Afternoon Shift, Col Summers park
• Post-shift, Bazi Bierbrassiere, check-in, $1 off beer.
• 6pm, Timbers reserves, AC Portland deal on tickets.

Bring sunscreen, plenty of water and No Alcohol Allowed (until you get to Bazi)
