Note: This is an "EXPLORATORY" trip. This means that there are parts of this trip, or perhaps the whole trip, that is new to your Trip Leader(s). However, they are confident that this will not be an issue. This note is here so that you can make an informed decision. When a Trip Leader isn't personally familiar with a trip, there is an increased chance of things not going as planned and you need to be prepared. The Trip Leader may have additional details in the itinerary. | |||||||
Itinerary: | |||||||
Atlanta Streets Alive is an event that happens throughout the city several times a year, when the streets of Atlanta closes to vehicles, so outdoor enthusiasts can walk/bike/skate/skip/jump rope, etc. The streets come alive!! -- with music and games to entertain along the way. (In years past, there's also been freebies. (Now who doesn't like swag?) I was trying to find my last write up for this... Can you believe it's been since April 2018 since I've brought this to the AOC? (Ok, the pandemic had a lot to do with that long period, not my laziness.) The last time we did this, we walked the streets on the east side. This time, we'll do the other side - the west side! The city will close Ralph David Abernathy and Georgia Avenue for 3.4 miles between 1pm to 5pm. What we in the AOC will do is to meet at Grant Park to walk that route.
KYM'S PLAN: Lets meet at Grant Park Rec Center. Parking is limited here, but there should be plenty of street parking on the streets around the park. Please plan to arrive a bit earlier than usual to find parking. After intros, we'll walk across the park to ASA at Georgia Ave. We will keep a leisurely to moderate pace. Please be flexible with the timing of this event (+/- 30 mins) cause we never know what fun thing will distract us :)
