Neighborhood Walk to the Civil Rights Museum Opening

On Monday, February 1st at 8am, after 50 years, the site of the Sit-ins at the old Woolworths building will officially be opened as the International Civil Rights Museum. As a sign of support from our own diverse neighborhood, I'm proposing that we walk to the museum as a neighborhood.

We will meet at 6:30am at the Community Garden at Steelman Park and walk up Gregory Street, down Haywood/W. Wittington St., through the J.C. Price School campus to the newly constructed portion of the Downtown Greenway, across Eugene st. to Bragg St, and then up S. Elm St. This total distance is slightly more than 1 mile.

It is likely to be cold, so please bundle up....and spread the word to neighbors.
