The last Summer Parkways for the year is in the Northwest neighborhood on Sunday, August 14th from 10am to 2pm. And honestly, it's the best for last. This route includes the beautiful Audobon Park, fun activities around Joe Albi Stadium, and the new Dwight Merkel Complex.
Streets will be closed to vehicular traffic in each neighborhood and opened up to games, walkers, cyclists, exercise groups, skateboarders, and other human-powered activity.
Spokane Summer Parkways was inspired by an event called Ciclovia (meaning "bike path" in Spanish) in Bogota, Columbia.
The event promotes a healthy lifestyle and provides a chance to join families, friends and neighbors for free outdoor, family-friendly and community activities in parks and on car-free streets. Walk, cycle or skate, test ride an ElliptiGO bike, swivel your hips hula hooping, unleash creativity with chalk art, try TRX, dance to the beat of Zumba or try out many other activities.
Make Summer Parkways a success by participating in the action, or volunteering. For more information, visit www.summerparkways.com or www.facebook.com/summerparkways or email summerparkways@gmail.com.
