One of our favorite parts of Ward 6 Week is coming up: Saturday's Lemonade Stand Contest! CM Allen will bike to the 14 (!) locations, & we hope you'll be out there, too! Make a morning of it by going to all, or just stop by the closest location to you!

Juneteenth honors the end of slavery in the US and prompts us to confront our past, celebrate hard-fought gains, and recommit to the work still ahead. Let’s keep moving forward together.
