Hi Jacob –

You are invited to attend the  <https://facebook.us18.list-manage.com/track/click?u=62aa4832a71d6d859fc35c3fc&id=38a9345fee&e=7f8217ff59> Community Celebration of the Green Lake Outer Loop Completion this Saturday, Nov. 19, 11 a.m.  Meet near the north-end wading pool.

Early in the pandemic, Green Lake & Wallingford Safe Streets led the community effort to make Green Lake Park a little safer for people walking, rolling, running, and riding around the lake. 

With SDOT's 2021 completion of the two-way protected bike lane along the north and east sides of the park and the implementation of the Keep Moving Street along West Green Lake Way, we had the unique opportunity to resolve a major safety concern of traffic crashes along Aurora injuring people in the park by repurposing a bus-only lane that didn't have any buses on it. 

In doing so, SDOT has created a new route around the lake that is shorter for people walking/biking north-south and expanded the park's recreational opportunities.

By celebrating achievements like this, we can build support for more projects like this all across the city.
Community members, SDOT & Parks leaders, and elected leaders will gather at 11 a.m. near the north-end wading pool to talk about the success of the project. A ribbon cutting will be held at 11:20, followed by a bike ride, run, and walk around the lake (counter clockwise).

All people are encouraged to lead your own walks, runs, and rides to the event.

The event is during the middle of  <https://facebook.us18.list-manage.com/track/click?u=62aa4832a71d6d859fc35c3fc&id=92fb5241e2&e=7f8217ff59> Cranksgiving.  For those who wish to participate in both, I believe you can. I understand that our celebration ride will be one activity to get extra points during the Cranksgiving event.
