Red Hook'd: Contact Info, Etc.

As it stands, the Red Hook Vendors Permit expires Saturday, September 8. Meaning, unless Parks grants an extension this Saturday will be The Last Temptation of Taco. That said, I'm expecting Parks to extend the permit thru October on the grounds that it makes no sense not to. But we shall see.

As always, I will post updates as soon as I receive them. In the by, contact info for all your Taco Emailing Needs...
