About this event
“We will gather at the bandshell at Reid Park at 11:00 a.m. Others will be marching into the Park beginning at 11:30 a.m. There will be continuous, brief speeches by younger adults. There will also be audience generated music and community based tables.
Our goal is to encourage conversations between the age groupings of “boomer,” “Gen X,” “millennial,” and “Gen Z”. We also hope to provide a safe entry for those wishing to find out what to do.
The area around the bandshell will be family friendly, with activities for kids (and very near a playground). We will have hundreds of free parking spots and several food trucks. The marches have been measured and are no longer than 30 minutes. There is extensive handicapped access that will be explained in the schedule (up to near the bandshell).
Adelita Grijalva has graciously consented to speaking. Mark Kelly, Ruben Gallego, and Juan Ciscomani were also invited but haven’t responded as yet. Our young adults are rehearsing their speeches to inform, amuse, and provoke. Join us!”
