Join us at BRIDGES Walk for a Just Community

This Saturday is the annual BRIDGES Walk for a Just Community. Our group will be participating in this event again this year!

The walk starts at Sawyer Point/Yeatman’s Cove on the riverfront – UC provides transportation there from campus to save you the trouble of finding parking downtown.

Shuttles run from Dabney Circle (http://www.uc.edu/architect/documents/Logistics/logisticsbw.pdf - intersection of Daniels St and Commons Way; between French, Dabney, Daniels and Schneider halls). The first shuttle arrives at 8:15AM and run every fifteen minutes until 9:30AM.

I’ll be trying to take the 9:00AM shuttle – feel free to meet me there or to meet up with me & other RAPPers down at the walk. I’ll have a RAPP sign to help you find me. If you have a RAPP shirt, I encourage you to wear it as a layer (it’ll likely be cold at the start and warm up – so wearing layers will help you stay comfortable!).

The walk goes from Yeatman’s Cove, through downtown, across the river into Newport, through Covington and ends where it started. It’s usually a beautiful walk and people from all over the Cincinnati community participate.

UC provides shuttles back to campus following the walk. They’re advertising that we might be back in time for UC’s Homecoming Parade which starts at noon (so, show your Bearcat pride in two great community events in one day!).
