Last year, the Santa Ana Water Resources Division was involved in 40 educational, community and children's events <br />to hand out samplings of our award winning tap water and information about water conservation. Events ranged <br />from First American Titles Sustainability Fair, Earth Day and Open Garden Day to Party for the Planet at Santa Ana <br />Zoo and the Children's Water Festival, to name a few. Here's a snapshot of several other events we participated in: <br />u,c,' vv cr `eon I" < -I 1 <br />Nearly 1,000 people of all ages participated in a 51K run enjoying views of <br />Santa Ana's hlsforlc landmarks including the Orange County Courthouse, <br />Spurgeon building, booming 4th Street, Sasscef Park, and the Garfield <br />Community Center. The Santa Ana Water exhibit was a refreshing stop for <br />thirsty runners who later enjoyed other activities during this community <br />health and resource fair designed to promote healthy lifestyles. <br />Hundreds of people stopped by our exhibit to sample water and learn more about <br />water conservation during this inaugural caoffee event called "Sunday On Main <br />Open StreeC' or SOMOS. A three -mile stretch connecting Santa Ana's historic south <br />Main Street with its vibrant downtown was closed off to traffic, opening up a safe <br />environment for the community to get out and get active. Residents were free to <br />walk, run or move around on bicycles, skateboards, and i oferblades as well as <br />enjoy children's activities, entertainment, Zomba dancing and yoga classes. <br />4 6RAre;ri Pik INT (i 6 koi I OF I CATIOIN DA`!
