Sunday Streets is San Francisco’s open streets program that transforms miles of city streets into car-free community spaces for kids to play, seniors to stroll, businesses and organizations to connect, and neighbors to meet. Between 8,000–10,000 people attend the Excelsior event, making it the largest of the year. An entire block of the event is dedicated to Scouting!
Scouts and Scouters should wear their Field Uniform uniform.
Be sure to bring water, snack, jacket, sunscreen, money to spend at nearby restaurants. Scouts may wish to bring their bikes or scooters to explore the rest of Sunday Streets; if so, be sure they also bring a helmet.
Do not bring knives.
