World Carfree Day 2007!

Join millions of people in over 1500 cities around the globe in celebration of WORLD CARFREE DAY!

In Toronto, SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 22nd come out and show how much fun carfreedom can be! Host a PARKING METER PARTY (*see below) along Queen Street West from 1pm, then join the CARFREE PARADE at 6:00 (5:00 assembly at Trinity Bellwoods, heading east)

BRING YOUR: family, bike gang, best friend, band, costumes, banners, instruments, human powered floats, badminton rackets, dance party, clown troupe, cardboard, crayons, imagination, sense of humour, whatever you do best!
DON'T BRING: a car!

HOW TO HOST A PARKING METER PARTY:
JUST IMAGINE: WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH A 6 X 12 FOOT PARKING SPACE?

1. Scout out a parking spot where you'd like to spend the afternoon
2. Park your non-motorized "vehicle" (i.e. your bike, trike, roller-skates, dinky-car) along Queen West
3. Pay the meter. For $1.50/hr the spot is yours! (be sure to display your parking receipt on the "dash" of your "vehicle"!)
4. Have fun showing Toronto how much fun carfreedom will be! dance! paint! play a game! read a book! make music! make people smile!

It's fun! It's legal!
Bring your fellow revolutionaries!

The revolution will not be motorized!
