Drenched 5K/Obstacle Course this Saturday in Exposition Park
One classic way to endure the summer heat is catch a movie and enjoy the excellent air conditioning. You can do that any day, however, while the Drenched 5K Race in Exposition Park happens but once a year and it’s that time again: this Saturday, July 27th the park will be the site of a big water party/race with water balloons, 100-foot-long Slip-n-Slides, water pistols, super soakers, misting tunnels and, if the video below is to be believed, non-injurious hosing down by the L.A. Fire Department. Looks very fun, there will be music, food and beverages, and the money raised goes to Children’s Hospital L.A.
