Thanks to everyone who came out to play on car-free streets at the Open Street Party on Sunday, May 30th: families, vendors, participants, demonstrators and volunteers! 

Despite a rainy morning, the sun came out just in time for the party. Congratulations to everyone who went home with a prize! We gave away a Car Share Membership, a MEC Hydration Backpack, and a $50 MEC Gift Certificate. 

It was a blast and we look forward to next year's event!
