+ Live Bands
+ Workshops
+ Presentations
+ FREE FOOD
We are also asking the community for the following:
+ Canopies: We need to borrow canopies to keep the sun off of the crowd and off of our food support crew, it has been very hot during the afternoon hours, we want everyone to feel comfortable whether they are enjoying the live bands, presentations, or one of the workshops.
+ Fresh Produce: Food is medicine. We want to encourage everyone to maintain a healthy diet and a healthy lifestyle!
+ Block Ice or Dry Ice: The ice will be used to keep the food cold.

About the Walk today:
The walkers are currently on Rifle Range Road (Road 6731 on the map) just south of Tuba City. They will then get back on the 89 and walk 3.1 miles to Tuba City.
Hey Tuba City, it's your time to shine! Come out and enjoy this free event, bring your family, friends, and skateboards!
