OccupyKC Camp - March 28

March 30, 2012 marked the 6 month anniversary of Occupy Kansas City.

Occupy Kansas City started on September 30, 2011 at a public park situated between  the 10th District Federal Reserve building and the World War I Museum and Liberty Memorial.  After 6 full months of occupying the public space, OccupyKC became the longest continuous public occupation in the country.

To commemorate the occasion, Kansas City’s Parks & Rec decided to clear the camp of all structures and unclaimed garbage, in preparation for upcoming events and park usage as the weather continues to warm up.  In just a few hours and a few dumptrucks, the camp was cleared of all tents and camping equipment.
