This event will take place under the Morrison Bridge along Waterfront Park this Sunday November 20th from noon to 3 PM.  Over 400 pairs of shoes, one for each Oregon traffic fatality so far this year, will be displayed.  Speeches and press at 12:30.  The Stumptown Fellas https://www.facebook.com/StumptownFellas/ will perform.  Please swing by and lend your support.  https://www.facebook.com/events/705429639623167/permalink/715053261994138/  Organized by Oregon and SW Washington Families for Safe Streets https://www.facebook.com/ORSafeStreets/?fref=nf

As of yesterday, we must add two more pairs of shoes to the death-toll display http://www.oregonlive.com/pacific-northwest-news/index.ssf/2016/11/semi-truck_and_car_crash_on_i-.html#incart_river_home_pop.  If you believe in working toward Vision Zero, please support this action.  This event is put on by the Oregon and SW Washington Families for Safe Streets.  It is a small group of people, who after suffering the unimaginable sudden and violent loss of a loved one to a roadway crash, have turned their grief into action to help prevent others from going through this same sorrow.  Please stop by and show support if you can.  Invite another person.  For a real lift, show up and help out.  They are short on volunteers.  Sign up here.   http://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090849a9ab23a2f94-world
