The block party he threw last year was such a success, Assemblyman

Dario Frommer (D-Burbank) has decided to do it again this weekend at

Johnny Carson Park.

Frommer and the city of Burbank are inviting the public to attend

the legislator’s Behind the Scenes Community Block Party from 11 a.m.

to 3 p.m. Saturday at Johnny Carson Park, 400 S. Bob Hope Drive.

“It’s an opportunity for residents to come and spend a day in the

park, meet other folks and learn about services and activities that

are going on in Burbank,” Frommer said. “It’s also a chance for me to

talk to folks and learn their concerns.”

The party includes free food and drinks, events for seniors, free

fingerprinting and face painting for children and booths and

activities for the family. Representatives from local organizations

and businesses will be on hand to provide free information and

prizes.

Sponsors include SBC, Boys and Girls Club of Burbank, Burbank Fire

Fighters Local 778, Burbank Kiwanis for Fun, Charter Communications,

NBC, The Gas Company, Total Entertainment, State Farm Insurance and

Independent Textiles.

Food will be donated by Burbank Kiwanis for Fun, Sunrise to

Sunset, Hometown Buffet, Krispy Kreme and Nestle.
