I'd like to invite everyone to the West Windsor Bicycle and Pedestrian Alliance's 10th anniversary annual meeting on Thurs March 17 at 7pm at the WW Senior Center. Ken Carlson, our founding President, will share some stories from helping start the group as well as from his current role as Chair of the Somerville (MA) Bicycle Committee. Hope to see you there!
