This morning Lincoln Avenue in the Willow Glen neighborhood of San Jose was full of children walking and bicycling to school. Over 400 children and their parents gathered in the Bank of America parking lot to gather their baloons in preparation for one of three trips to Willow Glen Elementary, River Glen Elementary, and Hammer/Galarza Elementary school.
This event which was organized by local resident Richard Zapelli is in its second year. This year several local elected officials who recognize the value of walking and bicycling to school were on hand to send the kids off. California Assembly members Jim Beall and Paul Fong were on hand as well as San Jose City Council members Donald Rocha and Pierluigi Oliverio.
