91�����

91����� faculty, staff members and students are invited to walk or ride a bicycle along the 91����� Esplanade to the downtown 91����� restaurant, Laziza, during the second annual “Let’s Take a Ride/Walk” event on Thursday, Sept. 20, from 11:30 a.m. Free lunch will be served by Laziza to all participants, and valuable coupons for Main Street merchants will be available.

The event offers the opportunity for participants to hear about new shops coming to Acorn Alley II in downtown 91�����, and learn biking tips from the Portage Cyclery experts.

Registration tables for the event will be located by the information desk in the 91����� Student Center, which also is the takeoff point for the walk and bike ride. Participants can choose to ride their own bikes or get a free rental from FlashFleet at the 91����� Student Center.

Students earn 500 FLASHperk reward points by participating in this event.

Organizers of the event say the support of the 91����� State community is key to the success of local downtown businesses. Downtown 91����� merchants hope to complete the overall 91����� State community and college town experience.

“Let’s Take a Ride/Walk” is sponsored by 91����� State’s Taskforce on Sustainability, Laziza, Miracle on Main Street (M.O.M.S), Main Street 91�����, One91�����, Portage Cyclery and TransPORTAGE.
