Seeking folks to join the Our Streets Minneapolis Board of Directors

Our Streets Minneapolis is looking for applicants for its Board of Directors (see below for more information on what it means to be a Board member and the types of people and skills we are seeking). Joining the Board is a great way to connect to other civic-minded people who want to make a real difference in the city by advocating for safe and comfortable places to bike, walk, and roll.

At Our Streets Minneapolis we have a new advocacy priority: making our streets walkable in the winter. While summer is just drawing to a close, we know winter will be here before we know it. This year we are committed to making sure people waking and rolling can continue to get around our city in the ways that work best for them. 

Join us this Sunday, August 26th for Open Streets Franklin! Open Streets Minneapolis events are free events that temporarily close major thoroughfares to car traffic, opening them up for people walking, biking, rolling, and playing. Check out the Open Streets Franklin Facebook page or the event webpage for more details. Here are some events that I’m especially excited to see at Open Streets Franklin!
