[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Usually this is coordinated by more than one family and the money is discussed with the block.[/quote]
Not this one! He just came over and said he had already met with the city and that he’d be printing flyers this weekend, but wanted to give a heads up since he saw us outside. Said he throws a big party every year (which we’ve seen) and thought he’d just throw a block party this year. [/quote]

Great idea!  We have had this in most of the communities in which we lived.  There was one Stepford type place, where most of the families were invited, but not all (including my friends, who were next door neighbors of the host), and that was by far the strangest place (people claimed to be so neighborly, but their words did not match their actions).

Block parties are fun!  We have them where we live now - live pop band, indoor/outdoor catered set up, and kids activities.  Big age range, not just young families (but many), which is also nice.  A block party that includes the whole block/neighborhood generally means it is a pleasant, inclusive, but not boundary lacking place to live OP.  Bring a bottle of wine for the host. Have fun!
