Hello,

May 10th, is Seattle Walks Day!  As a part of the Seattle Pedestrian Master 
Plan, hundreds of Seattle residents will meet at 10 a.m. with neighbors, 
friends and families to walk their favorite routes in their communities! 
Participants will complete surveys that will be used to make Seattle the 
MOST WALKABLE CITY in the NATION!

Because you signed-up to be on the Pedestrian Master Plan list-serve, we 
know that you care about the safety and health of your community.  We also 
know that you could be excited about the opportunity to encourage your 
neighbors to increase walking by organizing a neighborhood walk as a part of 
Seattle Walks Day!   Organizing a walk is EASY!  Select a meeting location, 
invite your neighbors, determine a route, WALK and then complete the survey. 
Completed surveys can be mailed to the Seattle Department of Transportation 
or can be dropped off at any Seattle Parks and Recreation Community Center, 
Neighborhood Service Center or Library.

For more information about Seattle Walks Day! and the Seattle Pedestrian 
Master Plan, please visit www.seattle.gov/mostwalkablecity.  On the site you 
will find useful information and tools to help you plan your walk including, 
a link to Google Maps and a flyer that you can modify and distribute to your 
neighbors.  You can also order the surveys that you will need for your walk.

Happy Walking!
