Grateful Dead rock on Belle Isle seemed much more placid for the Fourth of July than it was on Memorial Day when police had to respond to a stolen EMS bike.
Of course, I stopped by at about 2 p.m. Perhaps everyone learned a lesson and behaved? I didn’t see tons of coolers, heavy drinking or rowdy crowds like I witnessed on Memorial Day. One man was arrested after that bike was stolen, and the incident caused much discussion, planning and concern among all the key players in Richmond — Police, Fire, Richmond Parks and Recreation, and even the volunteer Friends groups that help the JRPS.
Or, maybe I just missed out on a huge party scene that started after I left Belle Isle on July 4th. Plenty of people gathered west of the island, presumably to watch the expected fireworks near the BoulevarPlease, let’s help maintain the peace.
