Metro is getting ready to pass its budget for next year. Big hearing on Saturday.

- Friday – Critical Mass! Wilshire/Western! 7 p.m.
- Saturday – The Metro Board meets ahead of its board meeting next week for a “working meeting” examining the Metro Budget. Grab your popcorn! Meeting details available here.
- Sunday – Car Free SFV has become my favorite yearly calendar event. Can you go car-free or car-light for one day? If so, take the CAR FREE SFV EARTH DAY PLEDGE and join the LACBC Valley Neighborhood Bike Ambassadors for the Earth Day Family Bike Ride. LA River Corp. will also be organizing an Earth Day Eco-Scavenger Hunt. The fun starts at 9:30 a.m. Get the details, on Facebook.
