About this event

Please see the Agenda Below for Starting Locations Each Day

This sign up page is for marchers that would like to take a 3 hour shift of the march from Georgetwon to Austin that is taking place on July 28-30.

  • In order to be able to accomodate everyone on the march, we have chosen to break the march down into 3 hour time slots.
  • We can only accommodate 100 people per time slot, plus 25 core marchers that would like to walk the entire route (so 125 marchers in total).
  • There will be no limit on the number of marchers that can participate on the last day, July 31st, for the final 1 mile stretch to the Capitol.
  • Water will be provided throughout the event.
  • Each group will be provided a meal depending on your time slot (breakfast, lunch or dinner).
  • Please only sign up for one time slot, so everyone can have a turn and participate.
  • Folks will be riding on a shuttle bus back to their cars, so please being a face mask to wear.
  • Folks will be able to stop at any point along the route and return to the command center, in case you cannot walk the entire 3 hour time slot.
  • The shuttle buses will be equipped with bathrooms, or you will be able to return to the starting point to use their restroom facility.
  • Please note that the march, for the most part, will take place on the service road of I-35 between Georgeton and Austin, and we will have the local sheriffs provide a protective bubble around those that are marching. As we approach Austin, marchers will be rerouted around construction areas, to keep everyone safe.
