1984

OUR VILLAGE:
First Annual San Diego International Triathlon benefiting St. Vincent de Paul Center begins at Spanish Landing directed by Rick Kozlowski. The event has continued every year since, raising over a million dollars for the Village.

SD HISTORY:
Beginning in 1984, a San Diego native created Street Scene which consisted of two events the first year; one in May and the other in August.[1] The event was held on historic 5th Avenue, between J & K Streets, for the first few years, with two stages. In 1987, it grew to take up two blocks, but still with only two stages. The following year, Street Scene grew once again to include five stages over several blocks; the music now began to feature diverse genres including zydeco, blues, rock and alternative rock.
