It's too bad they had to cancel it (the last one was lots of fun) and you know that if they went through the proper channels, Metro would have never agreed. Not in a million years.

It's hasn't been canceled!
Metro better be prepared to take a couple 1000 of people off to "jail" for exercising their constitutional rights.
Which ammendment protects the right of the people to pillow fight in a state park, again?
I always get rusty with that damn constitution.
The people who come to the pillow fight are responsible for cleaning it up afterward. At our last pillow fight we left the park in PERFECT condition, and to be frank that was one of the most beautiful things about it. At 9pm everyone stopped what they were doing and helped pick up all the feathers, trash and etc until the park was clean. We didn't leave until the very end- there was no trouble, no major injury and everyone had an amazing time. Urch, an anonymous group was there passing out free water bottles and trash bags and together as a community we united and had the time of lives throughout the night.
When I spoke to Metro Parks they had no idea that we even held a pillow fight in September, and you want to know why they didn't? It was because there was no evidence, we were all responsible and respectful. We just wanted to have fun.
The Optimist Manifesto was first founded on the dreams that as a community we can prosper in times of doubt and promote a healthy, happy and optimistic outlook on life. We believe that this notion is a universal desire, and seek to fulfill our mission by spreading happiness in creative ways of thinking, and most importantly in our day to day actions.
Sunday there will still be a pillow fight, but not at Centennial Park. For more details, see you on Sunday!
