The community gets a new sign
The Hillcrest Business Association (HBA) threw a grand party Sunday for the 27th annual CityFest street fair, San Diego’s oldest and best gatherings of music, neighbors, vendors and politicians. Booths lined Fifth Avenue from Brookes to University, but the heart of the festival was at University & Fifth avenues under the Hillcrest sign where
the grand stage featured music from noon until 9pm.
Emcee and Hillcrest’s favorite singer and entertainer, Laura Jane kept the energy high all day and closed out the evening with her band The Tighten Ups. The celebration’s highlight was the unveiling of the new Hillcrest sign. CityFest chair Johnathan Hale and HBA president Nick Moede were joined by staff, volunteers, US Congresswoman Susan Davis
and council member Carl DeMaio on stage. Hillcrest’s council member Todd Gloria welcomed the crowd and was the first to turn on the new LED sign. Two videos have been posted more to follow.
