Approximately 500 people participated. The Fourth Annual City of Ocoee Spring Fling will be held Saturday, March 28, 2009 Bill Breeze Park at the City Municipal Complex. In order in help ensure a safe event, the organizers are requesting: 1) the closure of the City boat ramp between the hours of midnight (Friday night/Saturday morning) and 4:00PM; 2) the closure of the driveway between the boat ramp and City Hall's west parking lot between the hours of 9:00AM and 4:00PM; 3) the closure of Oakland Avenue between Bluford Avenue and Lakeshore Drive between the hours of 9:00AM and 4:00PM; and 4) the closure of Lakeshore Drive between the boat ramp and Oakland Avenue between the hours of 9:00AM and 4:00PM. Community sponsors, citizen volunteers, neighboring agencies, and employees from a variety of City of Ocoee departments are providing the required resources and staffing at minimal costs. The road closures will have minimal impact on the area. Event staff will assist affected residents with access and egress from their houses. Because space will be at a premium, it is requested the boat ramp be closed during the event this year. 1 I ~ ;::ON o 0 Q) 0 Q.co OC/) o Q) en CD' ~~ en C/) "'0 :::::!. ~ <C " BLUFORD AV ... o ~ 't:l 3 CD Q) 3 0' ~ <C :.;...~..~._~_.._.~,.;.t'l o CD Q) 3 /-, . ) ,Jj ( / 'J 0' 0 ~ > 't:l ;><: 3 r- > Z o ~ Cr: ;....."i ~ ::;:; ~ 0'1 " -~ '" '" ~ ~ '" o o .,,0 (I) ~
