Walk Your District

Wednesday, 30 September 2009 12:30

Up and Moving is pleased to announce our latest venture — Walk Your District. These walks will feature one of Pasadena’s council members and will highlight an area in their council district.

Our first walk will be hosted by Terry Tornek, Councilmember from District 7 (Madison Heights, Caltech area, South Lake, and points east). It will held October 4 at 5 pm — details on the Walk Your District Flyer.

Please come join us if you can. More importantly, please spread the word if you have distribution ideas within District 7. Since this is a community walk and not really a citywide effort, we can be selective in our distribution methods. But, I wanted to let all of you know that this is happening and that we hope to see you there.

Our next Walk Your District walks will likely feature districts 4 and 5 - though we hope to get them all in the next year or so. We are also
scheduling a date with Senator Liu for a Walk with the Senator.

Walk On,

Kristen and Sharla
