What A Shame! I was working on an update version of  updated version of this article I submitted last year on Associated Content. I heard about in the blog log section of the Washington Post Express. Where are the concerts going to held, if the main venue is closed for an undetermined amount of time?

Nothing wrong with being a little resourceful.

saw a sign this AM saying there'd be a community meeting over Fort Reno park today 5/20 @6pm with DC Councilpersons in the Chevy Chase Community Ctr. I can't get there in time but it'd be cool if a supporter of the concert series could go represent

Arsenic levels at Fort Reno look to be "safe."

I know that they are seeking a company based in Montana to test the levels to keep everything legit.  However, I have to wonder if this "safe" declaration is to appease worried Wilson parents and homeowners in Tenleytown.

To be fair, it also included dinner at some Mexican joint in the neighborhood right after the free show.

shut the F up Julian.  just because you aren't getting any doesn't mean you have to be so bitter all the time.
 and yes, i'd have gone to this meeting if i had known about it six hours ago, and it wouldn't have been that ridiculous, because i live all of eight minutes away.
 i don't see any point in making fun because i photograph for a local website.  just doin' my job.
 also, Youbebetty and the BYTards would be a sweet band name.

WTOP reports today that the place is prob. ok.  Safety fences are down, lawn is being mowed, and arsenic readings aren't as bad as thought.  (Might be some lead though, but whatthehell...)

Jebus farkin crikey, as long as people dont get down on their hands and knees and eat the dirt, it's gonna be okay.   Nobody ever suffered because of the oozing polychloryl biphenols (PCBs) that were the root of the old 930 Club's distinctive smell.  Let the music play!
