TODAY: Walkathon, Oct. 18: Sponsor a Walker Today! After Party With Delphine Blue & The Atomic Grind Show
Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn
TODAY: Come out and Walk to Raise Funds for the Legal Fight Against Ratner's Faltering Atlantic Yards Plan.Due to the brutal economy, widespread community opposition, pending lawsuits and Ratner's own mismanagement, the developer cannot possibly build the project he has promised these last five years. Still, he continues his devastation of Prospect Heights and swallowing hundreds of millions of public dollars in the midst of this recession. And he does this with New York State's support. That is amoral, and it's gotta stop.
Thats why we need YOU to participate in the Walkathon
And after the walk, come to the party at the Brooklyn Lyceum, Featuring:
The global sounds of legendary New York City club and radio DJ Delphine Blue A live set from The Atomic Grind Show "mixing rock, jazz, country and other musical styles with carny attitude" (TimeOutNY).
All walkers and donors get in free. For those not walking or sponsoring walkers, entrance is a $20 donation.
Now for those of you who aren't registered for the walk or haven't yet sponsored a walker:
If you are unable to join the Walkathon you can still show your support by sponsoring one of the walker teams or an individual walker. It's quick and easy...
The walk will commence in front of Bob Law's Seafood Cafe (637 Vanderbilt -- btwn St. Marks and Prospect Place) and conclude with an after party including free food and live music (to be announced) at the Brooklyn Lyceum (227 4th Avenue at President Street).
Registration for walkers will start at 5:15pm in front of Bob Law's Seafood Cafe, and the walk will take place from 6:15 - 7:30pm.
