Due to the construction of the new San Bruno Recreation and Aquatic Center in San Bruno City Park, Community Day was moved to a new location on San Mateo Avenue in downtown San Bruno. The event showcased cultural performers representative of the local community, including Polynesian dance and music, ballet folklorico, and taiko drummers, as well as the diversity of global cuisine offered by restaurants on San Mateo Avenue. As in past years, the event fostered community spirit, offered Kids Zone attractions, and provided opportunities for community-based volunteer groups to provide services and promote educational resources and information to the San Bruno community. With activities for people of all ages, the event included local artists leading collaborative chalk art drawings on the street and a “touch-a-truck” station that allowed attendees to explore vehicles from the City’s Public Works, Police, and Fire Departments.
