On Saturday, December 16th, over 200 partiers attended
a holiday surprise party thrown by SF Bay Area Reclaim
the Streets.  Held on Berkeley's Fourth Street
shopping strip, the first annual party caught the
Berkeley police by complete surprise, giving us plenty
of time to set up our barricades, sound system, and
portable living room .  The police showed up after the
party was in full efeect, and bewildered by our
presence, allowed the party to continue without any
harassment.  Party activities included street bowling,
a smash the state pinata, jump rope, tennis, and
dancing.  Food Not Boombs caterers wandered through
the crowd with silver trays of spiced apples.  A case
of beer appeared out of nowhere, as did several other
intoxicating substances.  A good time was had by all. 
After holding the street for three hours, the party
crested with a fire spinning and fireworks show, then
disappeared into the night.  

After putting on three wildly successful party/actions
in the last three months, RTS will be taking a short
break for the rainy season, but will be continually
organizing and expanding the group.
