I'll be heading out this afternoon to Black Unity's #JuneteenthDay Celebration at #SkinnersButtePark in #EugeneOregon with @lcctorch Editor-in-Chief @RNGDave.

Follow the thread below once it starts ~~

This is pretty nice and impressive. There's a jumper and slide for kids, auctions, food trucks and other vendors. Speakers will start at some point.

Sizzle Pie donated ~ 60 pizzas to today's events.

Black Unity leadership is in pink.

Event is starting off.

The Black National Anthem — "Lift Every Voice and Sing"— is being sung now as the first official event of today.

We are running out of steam and my foot is hurting from last night. Probably going to leave soon.

We just got to our respective houses.
I'll likely be heading back out in a couple of hours.
