There were a numbe rof May Day celebrations throughout the city yesterday.
People of all ages filled Woodland Park on Sunday to eat, play and celebrate May Day, hosted by the Fremont Arts Council.

Games were provided for the children, including sack racing and tug-of-war, and although meant for kids, some adults joined in, too. Many people just spread out on the grass, enjoying the sunny weather.

And then, of course, there was the crowning of the May Queen. She was chosen from a number of eligible girls during a group dance.

Everyone gathered around the May pole shortly after the queen was chosen. Covered with colorful ribbons, people were encourage to take hold wherever they could. After a small amount of confusion, the traditional dance was wrapped up.
