Hey Chip & Jo, You Should Cancel Spring at the Silos
Ahh, Spring at the Silos - that beautiful time when tourists rush the city of Waco.
That was definitely sarcasm, my friends. Spring at the Silos and Silo-bration are my least favorite times of the year as a Waco resident. The traffic alone is what nightmares are made of. More to come later.
According to a Magnolia safety update, Spring at the Silos is scheduled to continue this year, despite growing concerns of COVID-19 aka Corona-virus.
If there ever was a time to cancel, now would be it. Even SXSW in Austin was cancelled for the first time in 34 years due to COVID-19 fears. Ciara was also scheduled to perform in her hometown Fort Hood, but decided to postpone the show due to Corona-virus concerns.
Spring at the Silos is also scheduled for March 12-14, which happens to be the same time that a lot of Central Texas students are on spring break.
Tourists+Students+Construction=Disaster
I live a mile away from the Magnolia Silos and I also commute to work, so honestly I'm dreading this weekend.
But really, if other cities in Central Texas are canceling or re-scheduling events, Magnolia can too. Plus it would make my life and other local's lives a lot simpler!
