Check with your local mayor, and inform him/her of your intention.
Request that the mayor support your idea. You could also ask for a certain day to be declared WascoWalk day, and the mayor and you could contact your local paper. Or you could start with the paper first. Try and contact any sport team(baseball/football/hockey/etc) to see if they can donate any articles to be auctioned at your walk. Of course if you do get the walk going, you will have to register people and have them sign a release form that says you are not responsible for any accidents and people are participating knowing there may be risks involved.(weather/cars/cracks in sidewalk/etc.) Everyone gets a ticket and raffles are at the end. I never heard of any government grants for such an endeavor, but enter a walk yourself, and get people to support you for each mile walked, or you could raise money by having a bake sale, or rummage sale, or ask the mayor if the city can donate. Depending on your city you may also need to get a permit. Hope this helps a little. Good Luck Ads |
