Scenes from "Revel with a Cause" Santa Monica Festival

On Saturday, I took advantage of the free valet bicycle parking at "Revel With a Cause," the eco-themed Santa Monica Festival happening at Clover Park. There's my chainless white bike to the right, being rolled away to be locked and guarded. I got a raffle ticket too, for my chance to win an unspecified prize.

Children seemed to be having the most fun, making recycled crafts in what seemed like every other booth.

Most trash stations had a volunteer letting people know what to throw where, though

whoever was supposed to be watching this one must have taken a break.

I left too early to win the raffle. But I collected my bike right after this very cute bicycling father-daughter duo (or uncle-niece or big bro-lil' sis). You can't tell very well from this picture, but both were expertly biking one-handedly while holding Icees in their left hands.
