I-135: Community Canvass Lake City

Join Seattle DSA to get the word out about I-135 ahead of the February 14th election. We will be meeting at the SE corner of Virgil Flaim Park to knock doors in the neighborhood, so wear comfortable walking shoes! A fully charged phone with miniVAN installed will also be helpful. Please RSVP so organizers can keep in contact — it may be difficult to find the canvass if arriving late.
