Let the Good Times Roll Saturday with Albany Streets

We'll create a safe, fun, car-free place for you to get out and get active in Albany. Join us for a day of outdoor fun without having to worry about looking both ways even once. There will be games and activities in the street.  You are encouraged to bring your own bike, roller skates, tennis shoes, fun games or just sit and people watch! This event is open to all Albany residents and their friends and family.

There'll be fruit smoothies made with bike power, Tai Chi, water 
balloons and a whole lot more.
