A friendly Strawberry Festival parking reminder:

There's a ton of free parking for the festival. Check out this map or peruse all the options here: greaterkokomo.com/where-should-i-park

Buuuuuttttttt ..... If you're planning to park in the lot across from the Central Middle School, don't. We're sharing the day with the Kokomo High School graduation and they'll need those spots. We know the shortcakes are tempting, but probably not tempting enough to explain to a graduate's grandma why you took her parking spot.

So check out the other available lots and give a big ole shout-out to any of the graduates you're lucky enough to see! Way to go, Class of 2026!

• Container and Alley Planting is Wednesday, May 13 from 1 to 4 p.m. at Courthouse Square.
• Annual Planting Day follows on Friday, May 15 from 1 to 4 p.m. at the City Hall Gazebo.
