 Friends,
Our BIG BOB Day is almost here!!
We’ve been hard at work over the last few months in the Third Street area and we’re ready to celebrate with you on Saturday, November 16th for BIG BOB Day!
BOB is a program my office offers that takes an intensive focus on one area in District 15 if an effort to proactively help neighbors tackle projects that will better themselves and their community. Through extensive door-to-door canvasing, we have identified services will be bringing to neighbors' doorsteps, such as home repairs through New Directions Housing Corporation, security checks through Louisville Metro Police Department, smoke detector installation through Louisville Division of Fire, and trees from TreesLouisville.
During this time, we also work hard to prepare for our BIG BOB Day, in which we invite the public to join us to share resources, make connections, and engage in volunteer opportunities.
BOB: Third Street's BIG BOB Day will be on Saturday, November 16th from 10 am to 1 pm. Most of the activity will be happening at the intersection of Central Avenue and S. 3rd Street where we'll have a resource fair where you can interact with Louisville Metro departments and non-profit organizations. This is also the location of our LMAS pet vaccine clinic and medication take-back. Stroll over to Wayside Park for a kid's zone where you can grab a free bike helmet and engage in fun activities. Grab your bike for a group ride from the Speed Art Museum to Wayside Park at 11 am. Or take a stroll through the Speed Art Museum with 50% off admission on Saturday.
There's a ton going on and I really hope you can join us! Keep scrolling to discover more!
