Event Photography: 4th Avenue 2009 Winter Street Fair

Along with several dozen other Watershed Management Group volunteers, I worked the edge of the fair. My job was to prevent people from leaving with open containers of alcohol.

Can’t say that I saw any beer walking away, but I did see some catchy wall art while being shuttled to my  security vantage point…

It wasn’t all beer drinker-watching and no play. I got a chance to wander around the fair. Saw Tucson’s favorite trash container percussionists, the Can Crushers…

Here’s a cool idea: Put Tucson Fire Department’s first aid guys on bikes. If they need an ambulance for patient transport, they can radio for one. Otherwise, they’re saving gas and doing community relations at the same time…

Nothing like watching the sun set over the barbecue stand…
