Parking for Bloomsday could be an inconvenience on more than just race day. In preparation for the annual event, the Street Department has been sweeping along the course. In order to get a curb-to-curb sweep, no-parking signs have been placed along the streets that are impacted, and cars may be towed if they’re in the way.

The West Plains Angels will host a car wash to raise money for four local groups, but the event is actually part of a nationwide effort to break a world record for most cars washed in an eight-hour period. The car wash will run from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at the Napa Auto Parts store at 20 Simpson Parkway in Cheney. The cost is by donation.
