Seven-year-old Michael Pyles held on for dear life as the mechanical bull bucked and spun at Ocoee’s Cinco de Mayo Block Party, held Friday, May 1, on McKey Street.

The bull was just one of many activities attendees enjoyed this year. Food trucks lined McKey Street to serve up special Cinco de Mayo food and beverages, while guests enjoyed a variety of games, a live DJ, an art project and more.
