[Transit] Interest in Collaboration with the Transit Riders Union

[Katie Wilson]

Sweet! I agree it’s a good idea. I emailed Clara and Cecelia and they’re both excited about this, so we’ll see if one of these evenings works for them.

On a totally different subject, are we still planning to do some outreach around the Eastlink opening? Anything I need to be doing to facilitate that happening?

I don't know if Rainier Avenue Radio has reached out to Greenways yet, but we could offer to invite panelists to discuss - like Clara Cantor, Cecilia, Ethan (Greenways), you! Gordon Padelford and Rich from Bikeworks.

Please join us, Rainier Avenue Radio, and our sponsor, King County Parks, to experience and be a part of five (5) important days to bring about a greater awareness of our beloved earth. We will be organizing and facilitating workshops, live panel discussions, film presentations, and lectures with the goal of widening the scope of environmental justice. This year, we want to prioritize transportation justice and I can't think of a better group to speak on this than y'all. If one or multiple representatives from your group would like to present or discuss expanding mass transit, you can do so through any of the mediums I mentioned above. Presentations run from 10am-6pm and our schedule is fairly free at the moment. I will be your point of contact for developing a presentation and you can reach me through this email or at (206) 619-5770 or Tony Benton, our Executive Director, at tonyb814 at gmail.com <mailto:tonyb814 at gmail.com> or (206) 290-9685. Thank you and I look forward to connecting with the Transit Riders Union.
