WOW! We went over and found downtown White Center full of people enjoying themselves and having FUN. Almost all in the crowds at all three HONK venues were swaying to the music and good music it was. People of all ages, many families all enjoying WC in perfect weather. What an introduction to WC for those who have never visited our great diverse community before.
