    I'm not sure that I am will to drive further to have to pay for an event that was free, in the West Oak Lane area, and in addition to having to pay a fee I would have to now pay for parking as well. What ever happened to the good old phrase, IF IT AIN'T BROKE THEN DON'T FIX IT"???? By the way, it's a good SLAP in the face of the Philadelphia residents and the local business' as well.  SMH
