[Northkeep] Fwd: shakespere- entertainment

Watch when driving around downtown, there are some street closings for
the Gay Pride parade and street party.  I couldn't find a simple map,
so here is the main page from the Equality Center.

So many things to do if it was just 20 degrees cooler, everyone take
care in the heat if they do go out,
