      Market

      …where everything old is new again!

      SHOP AT DISCOVERY GREEN FLEA

      Treasure-hunt at this monthly, one-of-a-kind market nestled in the shady southeast end of the downtown park. The destination market features an array of artful kitsch, vintage items, mid-century modern furniture, recycled and repurposed items and collectibles.

      Discovery Green Flea is irresistible to the avid shopper! Whether you are a bargain hunter or an eco-sensitive collector dedicated to repurposing and reusing, seek and find at Discovery Green Flea while enjoying light bites and local entertainment. With the planning expertise of Project for Public Spaces and our new friends at Brooklyn Flea, Discovery Green Flea is the place to see (buy and eat) and be seen.

      Taken from the Gritty Goddess website (www.grittygodess.com) :
      Gather your fellow goddesses for an event that’s all about women, and women ONLY. I mean really, who wants to climb a cargo net with a sweaty, hairy, possibly smelly guy? Okay, some of you might, but for the rest of us, that’s just unnecessary grossness. No offense guys – we still love you.
      We know you’re swamped in laundry, work, school, motherhood, wivery (not a real word, but we’ll go with it) – you know… LIFE. But you really need to set aside one day for yourself and take on a different sort of challenge. What is it exactly? It’s a 5K obstacle course built just for women, no matter your age, shape, size or athletic ability. It’s a way to get back to nature, and reconnect with your inner goddess. And it’s non-competitive, so you can take your sweet time, have fun, and enjoy every moment with your bosom buddies!
      Yes, it’s gritty too. There will be mud, sand, foam and water involved (we said “get back to nature”), and some other, more colorful goop as well – so we suggest you leave your Marchesa gown and Jimmy Choos at home. You’ll also be required to run, crawl, climb, slide, balance, hoist, swing, stretch, and make your body do things it may not usually do. That’s all part of the fun!
      All of this effort is not without reward… along the way you’ll find “Temptation Island” (need we say more), and at the finish you’ll receive the pampering that every hard-working goddess deserves. There may even be a few “spirits” of the drink variety waiting for you.
