<P class=MsoNormal>Jane’s Walk is an annual celebration of people and cities
held annually on the first weekend of May. Through the simple act of walking
together and discussing what makes a neighbourhood, Jane’s walk helps knit
people into strong and resourceful communities. Created in 2007 by friends of
the urban thinker, Jane Jacobs, the annual series of free, volunteer led walks
has grown from 27 to over 600 walks. Visit <A
href="http://www.janeswalk.net">www.janeswalk.net</A> to get involved, lead a
walk and see what’s happening in Kitchener, Waterloo and Cambridge.
<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal> We are inviting you to <B><U>lead a walk in the area
you live, work or play</U></B>. It simply involves planning a route, thinking
through the stories, places and people you want to talk about and promoting it
around the neighbourhood. You can also share the guiding duties with a few
resourceful friends or colleagues. All walks are given and taken for free, and
they are meant to be fun and participatory-everyone has a story to
tell!<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>If you are interested in volunteering for Jane’s Walk during
the Festival weekend – May 4<SUP>th</SUP> & 5<SUP>th</SUP> – please contact
the Organizer in your City, listed below:<o:p></o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>Jane’s Walks are as diverse and unique as any community.
Since a Jane’s Walk is meant to be a ‘walking conversation’ about neighbourhoods
and how people use cities, the choice of ‘conversation’ and the places you
choose to visit are really up to you! Of course, you are limited only by your
imagination, not by what’s been done before, but to get you started, here are
some potential Jane’s Walk themes:<o:p></o:p></P>
