Bloomsday Tradition?

Does just the thought of running with 50,000 other people leave you cold? Do you make plans to be anywhere but downtown Spokane on Bloomsday?

Some Bloomsday traditions don’t include Bloomsday at all.

Maybe your idea of fun on the first Sunday in May is playing a round of golf with friends. Or hiking a favorite trail. Or enjoying a leisurely brunch far from the crushing crowd.

If you, your family or friends have developed a Bloomsday tradition that has nothing to do with running or walking the race, we’d like to hear about it.

Please call Cityline at 458-8800 in Spokane or 765-8811 in Coeur d’Alene, and enter category 9865. You need a TouchTone telephone. Normal long-distance charges apply.

Along with your message, please leave your name and phone number so a reporter can get back to you.

We’ll use some of the comments in upcoming stories about Bloomsday.
