LIMITLESS POTENTIAL FOR NEW EMPTY SPACE
The lot vacated by the Mumphort Uglo House last month is officially open for business today.
Buildings sprout and grow. Now and then, one grows up and leaves home. The absence of the Mumphort Uglo House, a DownTown landmark for generations, still rubs us a little raw–the old A-Frame building was last seen heading north on Highway 111 late one night about four weeks ago, and hasn’t been heard from since. But that’s not going to stop the Mumphort Remembrance Committee from conducting groundbusting ceremonies at the new vacant lot left by the building.
The party starts promptly at 6:00 am with a Clown Parade featuring the Finster Davis School of Mirth Ratchet Squad. The party continues with games, food, rides, and shows. Ziebarr’s Hot Home Cookin’ and Lube Shop is sponsoring a “Find the Basement” contest, promising a lifetime supply of Big Gorp drink coupons to be awarded to the winner.
Pop-rock darlings Oatmeal Torque will be the headlining attraction this evening at 7:00.
Several ideas have already been suggested regarding the use to which the new lot should be put. Negotiations will begin next week in City Hall room 5656, and are open to the general public.
