Mayor Muriel Bowser is hitting the pavement in Ward 8 today, engaging directly with community members in a walk through the Fairlawn neighborhood, starting from Boone Elementary School at 2200 Minnesota Avenue SE. The community walk, which kicks off at 4 pm, falls in line with Bowser's efforts to maintain a close connection with District constituents and the issues that are important to them, the Mayor's Office indicates.

Members of the press looking to cover the event were reminded to RSVP to [email protected]; residents and other interested parties who cannot attend were given various options to tune in live, with the DC Office of Cable Television, Film, Music, and Entertainment providing coverage accessible via the mayor's website, Channel 16 (DCN), and social media platforms such as Facebook or X. Community members can connect with the Mayor’s outreach in several ways. Bus riders can take routes C15 or C23, which stop near the event, while cyclists can use the nearby Bikeshare station at Minnesota Ave & 22nd St SE. Multiple options are available for participation and attendance.

For those unable to attend in person, the DC Office of Cable Television will stream the event live, providing an accessible way for the public to stay engaged and informed.
