Neat! I work in the area; will I get towed if I'm parked on 44th Ave that day?

Hey Jen, make sure to invite your coworkers/ spread the word! (it's a neat event and the locally-owned businesses that are participating could definitely use as much support as possible!)
As for getting towed, there will probably be signage up during the day that says no parking between upton and morgan aves n on 44th during certain time frames (but can't say for sure what they'll be doing with cars that don't get moved on the street ontime), but shouldn't be a problem to park on any of the sidestreets on the 44th ave corridor.
Sorry you can't make it MN Native but a very valid excuse....
FYI Dec 5th also marks the start of Victory neighborhood's holiday lights contest so there should be some nicely lit homes around the neighborhood, haven't driven around too much lately myself to know this for sure but there usually are some nice displays. |

I will let my co-workers know about this! Depending on how our day goes; we may be out there celebrating with you, CN! 
I just tried to talk my hubby into coming out for this too; but he can't drive over there, nor can he walk a block if he could get there (he has M.S.). |
