3rd annual Hoods & Hops at Opti Park
posted: Jul. 25, 2014
It looked like rain, but the weather ended up good for the 3rd annual Hoods & Hops car show at Indianapolis North Side Optimist Park, located at 775 65th Street [A3 on map]. There were about 30 classic vehicles on hand for the crowd to enjoy. Broad Ripple Brewpub supplied the local beer, with proceeds benefiting the Broad Ripple Village Association. The event included parachutists!
The photo was taken by Scott Estrada. It is of one of three skydivers who jumped from a small plane at 2000 feet and landed in the middle of Opti Park amid the spectators and cars.
