Fox 5 Zip Trip at Eastern Market

CHRS crew at Eastern Market Zip Trip

Local Fox 5 News does an early morning broadcast from a neighborhood location on Fridays.  On July 19, it was Eastern Market’s turn to host the crew. Management at the Eastern Market extended an invitation to CHRS to join other community non-profits and vendors in creating a vibrant and festive atmosphere under the shed roof. We didn’t get any air-time, but our new feather banner sure did. It looked great – and hard to miss – fluttering in the background. We met with quite a few neighbors who’d come out to see what all the fuss was about. And we did our bit to promote the Eastern Market as a vital economic asset and cultural resource.
