On Friday, May 19, Bike Walk Knoxville was thrilled to join Knoxville Community Development Corporation and Green Magnet Academy and other partners to celebrate the new and improved crosswalk at the corner of East Summit Hill and Lula Powell drives! This project, which was sparked by a walk with elected officials we hosted last year, will improve safety and accessibility for students walking between Green Magnet Academy and Vine Middle School, folks living at First Creek at Austin, and anyone trying to walk to nearby community resources like Cal Johnson Recreation Center, Harriet Tubman Park, or Morningside Park. Thank you to everyone who helped make this project possible and joined us to cut the ribbon and make the ceremonial first crossing!

Join Bike Walk Knoxville for a Guided Urban Bike Ride at Bike Boat Brew & Bark on June 3! Explore Knoxville's greenway system and bike routes on a 2-hour round-trip ride. We will begin at Knoxville Adventure Collective and will travel along the greenways by way of downtown, over into South Knox, on the way to UT Gardens. If you want to join but do not have a bike, reserve one with Knoxville Adventure Collective!

Join us on Tuesday, June 6 for our rescheduled walk with elected officials! We will begin promptly at 6:00 pm at Everly Brothers Park and walk about a mile around the area connecting Pond Gap, Forest Heights, and Bearden. Parking is available in the lot in front of Ace Hardware. Don't forget to wear appropriate shoes for walking and bring a water bottle! This walk will be an opportunity to engage with elected officials and community members about how policy, funding, and infrastructure impact safety for biking and walking in our community, and we can't wait to see you there! Join us afterwards for a pint night fundraiser at Albright Grove Brewing Co.!
