Readers can go to previous posts for information and links for events and activities being planned by Valley Metro starting at 8:00 a.m. for official ceremonies at City Hall Plaza and the Main/Center Street Light Rail Station.
From 9-12 commemorative passes for light rail transit will be handed out at each station where different themes are planned with fun activities for all ages. Go to valletmetro.org for more details, with lists of nearly everything that downtown offers for shopping, eats, and services including free admission to museums and discounts.

The City of Mesa Arts & Culture establishment has a full schedule planned in/around Mesa Arts Center, at all the city-owned museums [with free admission], and On/Off Main Street Keep your eyes footprints on the sidewalks leading the way to the museums and eyes open on Dinosaur sculptures

Other "City of Mesa entities" like the Downtown Merchants Association, VisitMesa, and the Chamber of Commerce are all working together to highlight attractions.

The Neighborhood Economic Development Corporation NEDCO, RAIL, and many more community partners and individual business owners will be promoting and showing all that downtown Mesa offers along the path of light rail transit: from Country Club/Main to Mesa Drive/Main all afternoon - there will be "cool zones" to chill out and water available under the shade. Check out the new decorative asphalt stamping in all the crosswalks and intersections where you'll also see many bronze sculptures all over the place on the sidewalks that residents and visitors have enjoyed for many years.
Bronze plaques in many locations - especially the Heritage Wall at City Hall Plaza - give you brief glimpses of Mesa history throughout the years of its history and you can envision the New Urban Downtown Mesa transforming and regenerating right before your eyes!

From 6-10 p.m. - after seeing the sights and sounds, shopping, eating/drinking, walking around and enjoying yourself with friends and/or family, get ready for more community-organized events in the spirit of 2nd Friday Nights Out celebrating our desert nights, Mesa's creative spirits and businesses open late On/Off Main Street
