Ample sunshine in Huntington Beach on Sunday provided a pleasant backdrop for hundreds to meet up at Central Park for a community picnic held to promote inclusion and diversity.
Attendees talked to community leaders, watched live music performances and visited a variety of food trucks.
Huntington Beach Mayor Kim Carr said five former mayors Debbie Cook, Connie Boardman, Shirley Dettloff, Ralph Bauer and Dave Garofolo attended in support. Others in attendance included Orange County Supervisor Katrina Foley, state Sen. Dave Min, U.S. Rep. Michelle Steel and state Assemblywoman Cottie Petrie-Norris.
