Edina, Minn., Jan. 3, 2013 – For the sixth year running, the Edina Parks & Recreation Department is
pleased to host the Winter Neighborhood Night Out, a popular evening of socializing with friends and
neighbors, winter activities and free refreshments. This year’s event is scheduled for 6:30-8 p.m. Friday,

Festivities will be spaced out over four parks: Normandale Park, 6501 Warren Ave. S.; Pamela Park, 4301 W.

“Winter Neighborhood Night Out is the perfect opportunity to get outside in the winter and connect with
neighbors,” said Recreation Supervisor Kristin Aarsvold.
Each of the parks will host ice skating and kick sledding. Party-goers at Normandale, Pamela and Weber parks
will also have the opportunity to snowshoe, courtesy of sponsor Hoigaard’s. In addition, for those who want a
small memento to remember the night by, a caricature artist will be on hand at Normandale Park to sketch
you or a loved one.
Assorted, complimentary refreshments will be available at each site. A variety of beverages will be on hand,
and Jerry’s Foods and other sponsors will provide cookies for all attendees,
“We really owe our success to our great sponsors, including the Edina Community Foundation, Edina
