This event is free and community members of all ages are encouraged to attend.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast year, CMT, AARP and community stakeholders completed walk audits of three key MetroLink stations and identified short and long-term recommendations for improving functionality and making them safer and more vibrant destinations,\u201d said Kimberly Cella, executive director of Citizens for Modern Transit. Our next step is the June 14th pop-up event, which will give stakeholders, riders and the general public a peek at what is possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The event will feature \u201c2 Girls, 4 Wheels\u201d and \u201cDestination Desserts\u201d food trucks, produce from the Community Action Agency of St. Louis, fresh flowers from Flower Hill Farm, musical entertainment by Steph Plant, access to adoptable dogs from the Animal Protection Association of Missouri, bike tune-up from Big Shark Bicycle Company, yoga sessions led by Shanti Yoga and chalk artistry by Chalk Riot STL. There will also be a caricature artist, an oversized Jenga game, an interactive art station,<\/p>\n<p>The Metro Market is also set to serve as the finish line for the 2017 Great Race: Transit in Action. This competition plays off the CBS television hit &#8220;The Amazing Race\u201d to raise awareness about the many viable transportation options available.<\/p>\n<p>Team Metrolink, Team MetroBus, Team CarShare and Team Bike will race, using their respective modes of transportation and completing a series of challenges along the way, to see who gets from their specified starting points to the Historic Wabash Station the fastest during the evening rush. Each team is comprised of local media personalities.
