Editor Notes
There are about 10 unique food booths: rice balls, dangos, beef bowl, poke, drinks, etc. which stayed opened till 9 pm.  Performance stage ended around @7:15 pm.  The beer garden (fenced areas that allowed alchohol) closed at @8:30 pm.  The volunteers started clearing table at 8:30 pm.  

Each of the food booths were very unique in what they served.  Walking by the kids crafts/game area was marked with a councilman name at the top which made it unclear what it each booth did - very confusing especially at night.  There was a lot of tables/chairs and sidewalk curb to sit and eat your food.  Overall we had a very enjoyable time with friends. 

Next year, want to see an entertainment schedule, more lights on the street at night versus a piercing bright beam at the end of the street, all booths marked at top what they sell or do.
