Our Pick of Pics+Video - Center Street Daze 2009!

The festival started out with the fun of the annual Cart Race. (Carts must be pushed or pulled by human means)

Aw. The agony of defeat...

Only the best dad ever...

Yes, he's pulling the 'Fart Cart' for the youngest of entrants...

This one was an interesting, bulky, choice...

Later, out in the crowd, the tiniest of kids was riding the tiniest of bikes...

Everyone was having fun with their families...

And people were very busy filling the giant chalk art piano keys, outside The Jazz Gallery!...

This lovely lady said we 'made her day'...

More awesome dads were on the scene...

This joker was our human edition of 'The Exquisite Corpse' chalk activity...

Cool...

So what was the RAA Board up to on Center Street Daze, you might ask?
WELL, we were all over the place.

Darryl and Mark pushed our cart in the race, and Darlene filmed the event...

Sue was on the roof with the neighbors, getting a bird's eye view...

Julie was in the kitchen helping me prepare the food...

After the Cart Race, Sharon was inside The Jazz Gallery, doing a make-and-take book demo with the kids...

Maureen was working hard on the chalk art outside the gallery...

And I was organizing/supervising/participating in the chalk art, giant piano keyboard, with Sue all day long...

I also shot this video of the finished product...

Love it!
