Thank you for your decision to commit and participate in the car caravan to emphasize our demands for a safe return to in-person schools to both City Schools and City Hall. We all benefit when we ride together!

Join the Movement. Follow the Route!
Plans for Participants
-Please read these guidelines so that we operate as a single body with a single purpose. We will drive by City Hall, honking our horns with a purpose, calling on the City to provide greater support to keep students and educators safe. We will then caravan to North Avenue, where we will continue to show our solidarity and convene in a parking lot prior to dispersing.
-Take direction from our bike marshals in safety vests.
-Follow the route of the lead vehicle.
-Drive with your hazard lights on so that all vehicles can keep sight of the route ahead, keeping 10 feet between cars.
-Follow traffic rules, including red lights and stops signs along the route unless otherwise directed.
If you get separated from the caravan, follow the route according to the map.
