It鈥檚 that time of year again.
Bernard Avenue in downtown 麻豆精选 is now pedestrian traffic only, and Tuesday kicked off the Meet Me on Bernard summer closure.
鈥淚 still recall our official opening last year,鈥� 麻豆精选 Mayor Colin Basran said to the crowd. 鈥淚t was in some pretty sweltering heat, so I鈥檓 glad we had some better temperatures to help set up this year.鈥�
Restaurant patios have expanded into the street, large yard games are available to play, and tons of art made by locals is on display.
Executive Director of the Downtown 麻豆精选 Association Mark Burley said there are a few different features this year.
鈥淭he DKA block party returns on the 23rd of July. It鈥檒l look a little bit different because we have so much going on with all these beautiful animations鈥� And we鈥檙e bringing a Show and Shine on Bernard down here on August 20.鈥�
This year also features a mobile pass that can be downloaded for free. It includes discounts and incentives to visit local businesses.
