Join us on September 11, 2016, to walk and contemplate world peace!

The Rotary Club of Milwaukie is hosting its inaugural Peace Walk on September 11, 2016, the day of the International Walk for Peace.

This 5K walk begins at 9:00 AM at the end of the Max Orange Line, at Southeast McLoughlin Blvd. and Park Ave.  Walkers can begin the walk any time up to 4:00 PM.

The Peace Walk will follow the Trolley Trail North, through Milwaukie Riverfront Park, through Downtown Milwaukie, then back.  The route will be marked, and route maps will be available at the start / finish.

There is a suggested donation of $3.00, which is tax-deductible and will help fund peace projects by the Peacebuilding committee of the Rotary Club of Milwaukie, Oregon.  Projects include planting Peace Poles around Milwaukie, the Milwaukie Peace Walk, co-hosting the regional Rotary Peace Symposium and supporting anti-bullying and human trafficking awareness and deterrence, locally.
